"Xiaoxue?" Huo Mian could recognize Wu Xiaoxue's voice .
"Yeah . "
"Did you come back to China? Why didn't Director Wu say anything?" Huo Mian was surprised .
"No, I'm still in Chicago . "
"How have you been? How's your baby girl?"
"I'm good, Xinyue's been really good too…" Ever since her divorce, Wu Xiaoxue became more mature .
"I'm glad . "
"I missed you, so I decided to call you . Are you pregnant yet?"
"Not yet . " Huo Mian smiled awkwardly .
"It's okay, you can't rush pregnancy . Just go with the flow and keep yourself happy…"
"I will . "
"Are you… still in contact with Ning Zhiyuan?" Wu Xiaoxue asked after some hesitation .
"No… why?"
"Nothing… My uncle told me that a while ago, Ning Zhiyuan went looking for him and begged him to let him go back to work at the First Hospital… I don't think he's doing well . "
"What did Director Wu say?"
"My uncle said… he wanted to give him a chance, but Ning Zhiyuan's skills were limited… He's a doctor of ophthalmology, but he can't even write an academic paper . The First Hospital can't hire someone like him . "
"Oh…" Huo Mian nodded; she hadn't seen Ning Zhiyuan in so long that she almost forgot he existed .
Ever since Huo Mian refused to lend him money, they didn't see each other again .
"Xiaoxue… do you still hate him?"
"To tell you the truth… I don't hate him anymore… Whenever I see Xinyue, I feel bad that she doesn't have a father… I actually called to ask you something . If you have the chance to see him again, can you ask him if he wants to come to Chicago?"
"Xiaoxue…" Huo Mian wanted to say something but stopped herself .
"I know what you want to say, that he's not worth trusting… but I still want to give him a chance . Not a chance to be my husband, but a chance to be Xinyue's father . "
"I understand… Don't worry, I won't talk you into giving up… We're outsiders, but you're one of the parties involved, so I will always respect what you want to do…"
"Thank you, Mian . "
After hanging up with Wu Xiaoxue, Huo Mian felt happy; although Ning Zhiyuan was an asshole, at the end of the day, he was still Xinyue's father .
If Xiaoxue wanted to give him a chance, Huo Mian didn't have the right to stop her…
Therefore, she decided to ask Ning Zhiyuan if she ever got the chance to see him again .
There weren't a lot of patients in the afternoon, so the on-call doctors were told that they could leave an hour early .
After she left South Side, Huo Mian drove straight to GK's Headquarters .
To her surprise, however, she bumped into Mo Xue'er by the company entrance .
Mo Xue'er was extremely sexy in her bright red jacket and thick makeup . What Huo Mian didn't understand was why Huo Siqian, a man who liked beautiful women, didn't love Mo Xue'er . She was both beautiful and had a breath-stopping aura .
As Mo Xue'er passed by her, Huo Mian was just about to open her mouth and say hello when Mo Xue'er walked right past her, completely ignoring Huo Mian's presence .
This left the latter feeling incredibly awkward…
Why was Mo Xue'er suddenly treating her like that?
She turned around to see Mo Xue'er walk up to a black Land Rover .
The driver of the Land Rover was Jiang Ye, who waved at Huo Mian upon seeing her .
She, on the other hand, ignored him and turned around to walk into GK…
After Mo Xue'er got onto Jiang Ye's car, he asked her with a smile, "Why are you being so indifferent today, are you allowed to ignore the young madam?"
"She's not my friend, why should I greet her?" Mo Xue'er sneered .
Jiang Ye, on the other hand, laughed . "Haha, don't look for excuses, it's because of Huo Siqian, isn't it?"
