Chapter 3604

~3 min read 555 words

Wang Juan was a clever woman. How could she not hear the subtext of what this guy, who seemed dull and stupid, was saying? She could hear that this kid was testing her bottom line. She thought to herself, so this kid isn't stupid either; he's still thinking of ways to test me. Hmph! Actually using going back to his hometown in the countryside to test my attitude. Just now, I almost fell for his trick. But asking myself, if he really wanted to go back to his hometown in the countryside now, would I keep him? Is this guy worth keeping?

"Aren't you joking? As long as you pay the rent on time and follow my rules, who would kick you out..." Wang Juan said halfway, feeling it was still a bit too explicit, so she hurriedly backed down. It just so happened that the car had arrived at the hospital entrance at this moment.

Wang Juan opened the car door and said to Shanzhu when getting out, "I might have to wait a while longer. Why don't you go back first?"

Shanzhu took out a cigarette and said, "Sister Wang, you go ahead. I'll just wait for you here..."

Shanzhu's stance was very decisive, as if there was no room for negotiation. Wang Juan thought that since he was willing to wait, let him wait. She got out of the car without a word, but she was very happy in her heart. Because since divorcing Liu Deliang, it had been so long, and this was the first time she had had such close mental contact with a man, and for a time, she had a very steady feeling.

Shanzhu smoked a cigarette, staring at the landlady's figure as she limped and disappeared into the crowd. He exhaled a long puff of thick smoke. Today, he finally saw a glimmer of hope. Thinking of how Wang Juan used his chopsticks to pick up food to eat without any hesitation, a triumphant smile appeared on Shanzhu's face.

Just as Wang Juan arrived at the emergency room on the second floor, she saw the number one person, surnamed Wu; the vice president in charge of administration, Li Dong; as well as the president of the Renmin Road branch, Zhao Wei; and the director of the administrative office, Xu Ping, all waiting there. Sitting on a long bench a little further away from them were several men and women and a teenager, who should be the relatives of the credit department director, Li Feng.

Wang Juan hurried over, limping, and asked the man surnamed Wu with an anxious face, "Old Wu, how is the situation?"

President Wu glanced at the relatives, took Wang Juan's arm, and led her to the corner of the stairs. He lowered his voice and said, "They are undergoing emergency treatment. The doctor said it's late-stage liver cancer, but I have never heard Old Li mention it. Old Wang, you are his direct supervisor; do you know about his condition?"

Hearing President Wu say this, Wang Juan's head suddenly felt a bit muddled. Immediately after, she smelled a strong alcoholic odor on President Wu's body, couldn't help but wrinkle her nose, shook her head, and said, "No. Old Li rarely asks for leave, and I haven't seen anything unusual. How could he suddenly..."
