"Tsk tsk . . . Aren't you Mian's father? How did you not know anything about this?"
"I honestly had no idea, Mr . Su . There must have been a mistake . "
"Mistake? No, no, my sources are never wrong, you can go to the Civil Administration Bureau and find out yourself . "
"When did she get married? To whom?" Huo Zhenghai felt like his heart was going to beat out of his chest .
Huo Siqian never mentioned such a thing to him . Unless . . . Was it news to Huo Siqian as well?
"You know the guy too . He's GK's new president, Qin Chu . They've been married for about four months . "
Su Yu was rather saddened by the reminder that Huo Mian was married before they even met . . .
He felt he showed up too late . . .
"Qin Chu? GK?" Huo Zhenghai became even more restless as the news unfolded in front of him .
Huo Zhenghai continued his chit chat a little longer with Su Yu, but his heart was elsewhere . He excused himself soon after and headed directly to the Huo Corporation . . .
At the Huo Corporation Headquarters, Huo Siqian was busy signing documents when he saw Huo Zhenghai walking in angrily .
"Dad, why are you here?"
"Huo Mian is married! Why didn't you tell me?"
"What? Married? Ha, Dad, you're so funny . Mian still looks like a little girl, how could she possibly be married?" Huo Siqian chuckled .
"Su Yu said so himself . I've verified it with the Civil Affairs Bureau as well, it's true . "
"Really? Who did she marry?" Huo Siqian asked with surprise as if he really didn't know .
"You don't know anything about this?"
"Dad, how could I possibly know about this? You know how Mian is; she never liked me much . She barely talks to me, so of course she wouldn't mention something this big to me . "
"Hm . I guess that damned girl kept her mouth shut . " Huo Zhenghai simply believed Huo Siqian as he lied to his face .
"Who's her husband? How come I didn't hear anything?"
"I will tell you later . " Huo Zhenghai held back the last piece of information that was related to Qin Chu .
He was afraid Huo Siqian might use Huo Mian to his own advantage if he ever found out that she had such a powerful man behind her .
Huo Zhenghai wanted Huo Mian on his and Shen Jiani's side . . .
As Huo Siqian watched Huo Zhenghai leave the room, the warmth in his eyes left as well . . .
"Still playing games with me, eh? You old fox . . . "
- South Side Recuperation Center -
Huo Mian took the teenager from room seven on a walk in the backyard . The patient's conditions had stabilized significantly .
However, as the number of patients increased in the Orthopedics Department, it was inevitable that he would be transferred back to the Psychiatry Department . After all, crossing departments was never a good long-term solution .
"Sis, you're so good at League! Can you teach me some positioning tactics when you have time?"
"Sure! But you're transferring rooms tomorrow . Don't worry, I will visit you upstairs . You, on the other hand, should cooperate with the doctors so you can go back to school as soon as you can . "
"I don't want to go back to school, Sis, I want to live here forever . " Sadness filled the teenager's eyes .
"Don't be silly, kiddo . This is a recuperation center, it's no home . "
"But this place is better than home . I never get to see my parents, there's only a nanny at home . It's better here, the nurses here treat me better than my parents do . Most of all, you're here! You can play League with me, I like it here . "
Huo Mian smiled to herself bitterly as her heartstrings tugged in pain . . .
"You need to get better first, kiddo . "
After the walk, Huo Mian cleaned up and ended her nightshift .
Since the batch of new hires came in, her night shifts have been shortened to 10:30 PM .
Huo Mian took her time and left at around eleven o'clock since Qin Chu was in a neighboring town for an opening ceremony and wouldn't be home .
As soon as she merged onto the highway, she noticed that something was out of place .
A black Honda business van trailed behind her from afar, and it seemed to be following her .
To test out her theory, she deliberately took the closest exit after a turn and headed toward a different direction .
Confirming her suspicion, the Honda Business followed her through the exit . Something was definitely off .
The black car trailed behind her not too closely, but close enough that a speed up would bring them towards her . Huo Mian was unable to verify the number of people in the car, but she was confident that she was being followed . . .
She stepped on her gas pedal and sped up . Then, she turned on her Bluetooth and dialed Gao Ran's number .
"Hello?"
"Gao Ran, I'm on the Chen Nan Viaduct, heading towards coordinate 54 . 271,3 . I'm being followed by a black Honda business van . Please send someone to come investigate immediately . "
Huo Mian floored the gas pedal as she hung up and sped towards Huan Cheng Highway again .
"Catch up to her, don't let her get away . " In the car behind her, a big fellow ordered angrily .
