After obtaining some unknown information from the doctor, Wang Juan immediately stood up and said, "Then I've bothered you, doctor. I won't disturb your work." After speaking, she turned and left the office.

Li Feng's wife and son stayed in the hospital, and other relatives left one after another. Wang Juan had never met Li Feng's wife, Guo Ling. She had never seen Li Feng bring his wife to participate in any activities held by the bank before. At this time, it could be said that she was a stranger.

Wang Juan said, "Sister-in-law, people are already like this. Don't be too sad. Your own health is important. I think it's better to find a place to rest for a while. There are still many things waiting for you. Don't let your body collapse."

Guo Ling was clearly exhausted, her eyes red and swollen from crying, looking at Wang Juan with dull, questioning eyes. Wang Juan hurriedly explained, "I am Li Feng's colleague. My name is Wang Juan..."

Only then did Guo Ling react and said in a low voice, "So it's President Wang. I often hear him mention you..."

Wang Juan asked, "Did you know when he went out to drink at noon today?" Wang Juan wanted to take advantage of the time when Administrative Director Xu Ping went to handle the procedures to hurry up and ask a few more questions.

Guo Ling shook her head with a lost face and said, "In these years, which day didn't he come home in the middle of the night? How would I know what he went out to do..."

Wang Juan asked, "Then do you know about his condition? I mean, has he been to the hospital for an examination? Does he know he has liver cancer?"

Guo Ling shook her head again and said, "I just heard him say he was feeling unwell... I advised him, but who knows if he went to the hospital or not."

Hearing Guo Ling say this, Wang Juan thought to herself, it seems that this couple is just a nominal couple living under the same roof, and it can't be considered any affection. Maybe it's not as good as the relationship between her and Shanzhu. He is always thinking about her.

"Has Old Li mentioned anything about the bank to you recently? Like account numbers or deposits or something..." Wang Juan asked a sensitive question.

As soon as Guo Ling heard this, her eyes immediately became alert, and she instinctively resisted, "Why are you asking this? Did he do anything illegal?"

Wang Juan hurriedly waved her hands and said, "I don't have that meaning at all. I just feel that he left so suddenly, could there be anything he didn't have time to explain to you... If you need any help in the bank in the future, just come to me..."

Just as she was speaking, she saw Xu Ping walk over, so Wang Juan ended her questioning. After tossing and turning for an afternoon, she felt very tired. Only at this time did she suddenly remember Shanzhu who was still waiting for her outside the hospital. She thought to herself, how could she forget that kid? Did that guy fall asleep in the car? Serves him right! Told him not to come, but he insisted on coming. This is the price of offering courtesy without cause.

Administrative Director Xu Ping saw Wang Juan's tired look and advised, "President Wang, it's getting late. You should go back too. I will arrange a place for their mother and son to rest, and then I will go back too..."

Wang Juan said, "Alright. Old Xu, you work hard again. There will be a meeting in the bank tomorrow morning. You might as well take the opportunity to rest at home for a while."

Xu Ping complained dissatisfiedly, "I would also like to do that, but President Wu has already arranged work for me. Not only can I not come late, but I have to go earlier than others!"

Wang Juan was too lazy to ask what task President Wu had assigned to Xu Ping, and smiled, "Who told you to be so capable, Old Xu? This time, after Old Li retires, you should be appointed as the administrative vice president. At that time, you will be busy."

As soon as Xu Ping heard Wang Juan say this, the fatigue on her face disappeared without a trace in an instant. A flush appeared on her face, and she opened her eyes wide and whispered, "President Wang, don't make fun of me. I can't do without work, but I dare not think about such a good thing."

Seeing Xu Ping's modest appearance, Wang Juan thought to herself, just forget it, stop pretending. Maybe you are thinking about it every night, maybe you are pondering what kind of business card to design for yourself! Wang Juan smiled and said, "Why are you being modest, Old Xu? What I said is true. If President Wu asks for my opinion, I will be the first to recommend you. Our bank has household chores, and I think only you, Old Xu, have the ability to clear them up."

Being given such a high hat by Wang Juan, Xu Ping was so moved that she almost shed tears. After a long time, she had slept with President Wu for several years, but she didn't expect that this female president, whom she usually regarded as an opponent, was her soulmate.

"Aiya, President Wang, you think too highly of me... I'm just a life of toil..." Xu Ping said modestly.

Wang Juan smiled. Seeing that it was about time, she left the ecstatic Xu Ping and left the hospital. While walking out, she thought to herself: Light a fire for Xu Ping. On one hand, let her go find Wu Shibing to make a scene. Anyway, they talk about everything in bed. On the other hand, it can also be considered as indirectly conveying a message to Wu Shibing that she has no interest in this administrative vice president position.

After coming out of the hospital and arriving at the car, Wang Juan noticed that Shanzhu didn't sleep in the car as she had guessed, but was squinting his eyes, listening to the music on the car audio, smoking a cigarette, and thinking about something.

Wang Juan smiled, opened the car door, and Shanzhu came back to his senses. He looked at Wang Juan with a grin and said, "Finished?"

Wang Juan sat in the car, fanning the smoke with one hand, frowning and complaining, "It's annoying. Can't you smoke less? It's choking people to death, making my car full of smoke."

Shanzhu saw that although the landlady was complaining, she didn't look angry at all, but instead had a bit more coquettishness. For a time, he felt a numb feeling in his bones. He hurriedly threw the cigarette out the window, and while starting the car, asked, "How is your colleague's condition? Why did you go for such a long time, Sister Wang?"

Hearing Shanzhu ask this, Wang Juan squinted at him and asked, "Why? Are you impatient from waiting?"

Shanzhu deliberately said, "A little impatient. Sister Wang, it was hard to come by a weekend, and you weren't allowed to rest properly, busy in the hospital until now."

Shanzhu's words were very pleasant for Wang Juan to hear. She knew he was speaking ironically, but in fact, he was feeling sorry for her. She didn't know if what this guy said was from his heart, because after this period of secret monitoring, she found that this guy seemed to really have that kind of thought toward her, just that he pretended to be more like it in front of her. However, thinking that Li Feng was sick to the point of death, yet his family knew nothing about it, she suddenly felt that this kind of roundabout concern from a man was extra warm.

In the car, Wang Juan couldn't help but think, what is the essential difference between her and Liu Deliang's few years of marriage and Li Feng's couple? Although they were husband and wife in name, they didn't know what the other was thinking at all, didn't know what the other needed. This mental disregard was more terrible than not knowing the other's health condition. If she was destined to have another marriage in this life, this situation would not be allowed to happen again, otherwise, she would stay single to the end.

Shanzhu saw the beautiful landlady remain silent and realized that his words just now were a bit too subjective, so he said relatively objectively, "I'm thinking for you, Sister Wang. Look, you could have rested well at home today, but overwork is the biggest killer of women's aging."

Hearing this sentence from Shanzhu, Wang Juan turned her head to look out the window and muttered in a low voice, "What does it have to do with you whether I'm old or not!"

Being told this by Wang Juan, Shanzhu was suddenly speechless. If it were lovers in the heat of love, this question would be the best to answer, and when a woman asks this question, it is often the best time for a man to express himself. But Shanzhu soberly realized that his relationship with her, let alone lovers in the heat of love, couldn't even be considered ordinary friends. Even if they were ordinary friends, it was like walking on thin ice, with the danger of breaking at any time. So Shanzhu muttered, "Just pretend I didn't say it... How about we just drive around the streets? Anyway, you have things on your mind, Sister, so I'll accompany you to relax..."

Seeing this kid care about her so much, Wang Juan turned her face and stared straight at Shanzhu with those peach-blossom eyes, making him feel a chill in his heart. He thought to himself, it was quite normal when she got in the car just now, so why is she examining him with such a heavy gaze after a while?
