He directly returned the tissue to Xu Hongdou's hand.

Then he looked at Xu Hongdou and said: "Whoever made it, wipe it off yourself!"

"……, okay."

Xu Hongdou sighed helplessly.

She leaned over sideways and carefully wiped the lipstick mark from Qin Feng's lips.

Then,

Qianxun25595300

But Xu Hongdou suddenly changed her address: "Director Qin, I'd like to take some time off. I want to spend more time with Sister Nannan before her parents arrive."

"Fine."

Qin Feng nodded calmly: "Submit a formal request to the Administrative Director. As long as the Director approves, I have no objection."

"?"

Xu Hongdou turned to look at Qin Feng.

She smiled helplessly: "Director Qin, I'm the Administrative Director you just promoted."

Qin Feng remained calm: "Yes. As long as you agree, I have no objection."

Hearing this,

Xu Hongdou studied Qin Feng carefully.

After a long while,

She changed her address again: "Thank you, Qin Feng."

Originally,

in Qin Feng's plan,

Xu Hongdou was only meant to serve as a supervisor,

merely overseeing the hotel's daily operations, without needing to take on additional responsibilities,

so,

Xu Hongdou taking a few days off didn't matter to Qin Feng at all.

However,

what was utterly insignificant to Qin Feng,

meant something entirely different to Xu Hongdou.

Although today she had been unexpectedly promoted to Administrative Director,

no matter the reason,

Xu Hongdou shouldn't have taken a long leave the day after her promotion,

because doing so

would cause hotel executives and staff to speculate wildly about her true relationship with Qin Feng,

and at the same time,

set a bad example for all hotel employees,

that Xu Hongdou, as the new Administrative Director, was taking a long leave right away,

then when staff later needed time off for various reasons and caused staffing shortages,

would Xu Hongdou approve or deny their requests?

But right now,

Xu Hongdou couldn't care about all that.

Her mind held only Chen Nanxing, lying alone in the hospital bed.

In the car,

Xu Hongdou kept herself calm and called Chen Nanxing's parents to explain the situation,

then did her best to comfort them,

after which,

she asked Qin Feng to take her home,

to pack up all of Chen Nanxing's personal belongings left at her place,

then,

she asked Qin Feng to take her back to the hospital.

Xu Hongdou had brought too many things,

she couldn't carry them all alone,

so,

Qin Feng picked up a bag and followed Xu Hongdou toward the Oncology Ward.

Chen Nanxing was in Room 8 on the 18th floor,

and right now,

voices of argument were coming from Chen Nanxing's room.

Xu Hongdou sensed trouble,

quickened her steps and pushed the door open immediately,

then,

she saw Chen Nanxing, face flushed, arguing with the family of the patient in the next bed.

The reason was because,

Just now, while Chen Nanxing was changing into hospital pajamas with a nurse's help,

the old man lying in the adjacent bed actually reached out and pulled back Chen Nanxing's curtain several times.

Although the nurse immediately scolded the old man in Bed 7 next door,

the middle-aged woman accompanying the patient actually thought the nurse and Chen Nanxing were making a mountain out of a molehill,

and as soon as the nurse left, she started arguing with Chen Nanxing.

Seeing that Chen Nanxing was alone and weak,

the middle-aged woman accompanying the patient in Bed 7,

with hands on hips,

spat contemptuously at Chen Nanxing: "Pah! So what if I looked at you a few times? Will you lose a piece of flesh or a piece of bone?!"

"Besides, you're all people about to die anyway; what's wrong with looking at you a few times?"

The old man in Bed 7 has late-stage liver cancer,

but his condition is currently okay; he can walk, move, and eat,

and from time to time he goes to the front desk to flirt with the young nurses, which is truly annoying.

Originally,

the hospital would perform basic gender separation for patients,

but during this period,

there were too many oncology patients and beds were extremely tight,

so many patients who wouldn't die immediately had to lie on cots set up in the hospital ward corridors.

Chen Nanxing's bed,

was one the nurse had fought hard to secure, and only then was it arranged for Chen Nanxing.

So even though all these unpleasant things happened,

the nurses and doctors actually found it very difficult to help Chen Nanxing change beds.

Seeing Chen Nanxing being bullied as soon as she arrived,

Xu Hongdou immediately stepped up,

and directly rebuked the middle-aged woman: "How can you speak like that?! Do you think young girls are easy to bully? I think you're the ones about to die!"

"Relying on your age to act arrogant and unreasonable; you're the ones who should die sooner!"

Being directly confronted by Xu Hongdou,

the middle-aged woman rolled up her sleeves, ready to fight,

"Hey, I say, where did you little girl come from? Why is your mouth so poisonous?! Say a few more words, and I'll tear your mouth apart, believe it or not?!"

And the old man in Bed 7,
