Chapter 62

"Mom, I'm going outside to answer a call . It's getting late, so please get some rest . Tomorrow I'll get the paperwork done to get you discharged . Then, we can go see Zhixin . " With that, Huo Mian carefully backed out of the hospital room, her cell phone in hand .

Picking up the phone, she whispered, "Hello?"


"Where are you?" Qin Chu asked .

"At the hospital . "

"When are you coming home?"

"I'm working the night shift today . "

"When are you done?"

"Tomorrow morning . "

"I'll go pick you up . "

"No thanks . "

"Why?" Qin Chu was clearly displeased . Did he have to remind her again that they were now husband and wife?

"Because your Audi R8 draws too much attention . I don't want people saying things about me at the hospital . Besides… even our director's car isn't as fancy as yours . " If Huo Mian remembered correctly, Mr . Bigwig Director's car was only an Audi A8 .

If she were to really get into an Audi R8 right in front of the hospital, she would never hear the end of it .

On the other end, Qin Chu was silent . Huo Mian guessed that he might be upset .

"I can just take the bus by myself," she added .

Clack! The call was ended from the other end .

This guy's temper was still exactly the same as seven years ago, proud and stuck-up . What a piece of work .

After completing her night shift, Huo Mian was exhausted . First thing in the morning, she went to file the paperwork for her mother's discharge .

Then, the two of them went to the VIP room together . Zhixin wasn't awake yet . However, according to Doctor Liu, all of his vital signs were stable . It was only a matter of time before he woke up . In the end, her mother stayed behind to take care of Zhixin . Huo Mian headed home, hoping to get some decent sleep .

After several days of running up and down the hospital nonstop, she felt like she was on the verge of collapsing .

When Huo Mian walked out of the hospital doors, a white Volkswagen CC stopped before her .

Just as she was wondering what was going on, the driver rolled down the window and spoke, "Get in . "



"Um… Why are you here?"

Huo Mian didn't think that Qin Chu would actually come, and to come driving such a low-key Volkswagen CC at that .

The cars waiting behind him kept on blaring their horns . This stuck-up driver had parked in front of the door, severely obstructing vehicular movement .

Huo Mian didn't dare stay there any longer, and quickly opened the car door to the passenger seat .

Only then did Qin Chu smugly start the car and drive away .

"You… got a new car?" she asked quietly .

"It's my assistant's car, I borrowed it . " Qin Chu's tone was nonchalant .

Heavens knew that he had called Yang first thing in the morning, telling him that he wanted to swap cars .

Only God knew how bewildered Yang felt . He really didn't know if he could handle driving his boss's Audi R8 to work .

Besides, what was so great about his less-than-thirty-thousand-yuan CC that it caught his boss's attention?



After the brief exchange, Huo Mian didn't speak again . The two sat in awkward silence .

"What do you want to eat?"

"Huh?" Qin Chu's sudden question left Huo Mian momentarily stunned .

"What do you want to eat?"

"It's okay . I'm not really hungry . "

"Chinese or Western?" Qin Chu asked, ignoring Huo Mian's response .

After some hesitation, Huo Mian realized with reluctance that this guy was just as bossy as he had been back in the day . She could only compromise .

"Chinese . "

Fifteen minutes later, the car stopped before First Class Royal Palace .

Qin Chu led her inside, heading straight up to the private rooms on the second floor .



Then he ordered some shrimp dumplings, crab congee, and other dim sum dishes .

Huo Mian hadn't had such a lavish breakfast in a very long time . As she ate, she kept sneaking glances at Qin Chu .

She saw that, while he ate with immaculate table manners, he was scrolling on his cell phone with his other hand, checking on the day's stock market .

After she finished, Huo Mian set down her spoon . "I'm done," she said slowly .

"Okay, then get your card and pay the bill," Qin Chu said nonchalantly .

"What? Why am I paying the bill?" Huo Mian was about to explode . She didn't think Qin Chu was this stingy . Besides, at a place like First Class Royal Palace, breakfast had to have cost at least a thousand yuan .

Like she had that kind of cash on her . All she had left were about two hundred yuan of pocket change .

Qin Chu looked up . Picking up a napkin, he dabbed at the corner of his mouth gracefully before speaking .

"I transferred my salary for this month to your card last night," he said with a casual look, "of course you're paying the bill . "

"I…"

Huo Mian was petrified .
