"I'm sorry Mr..uhh..?"
"Mr. Hui Han"
Hui Han...? Why does it sound awfully familiar?
....
"THE MR. HUI?!?!?!? ANNA..NO..HUI YIN IS YOUR DAUGHTER?!?!?!?!?"
BAM
"Okay..you shouldn't have known that" Hui Yin said, taking the phone from the shocked Derek
"Why didn't you tell me???"
"I didn't want to. Didn't need to" "Dad let me call you back in a bit alright? Yeah bye"
"are you a daughter of a mistress?"
"wha- no! What are you talking about?"
"oh..so you're what?"
"his daughter. He's my biological father, genius" she laughed, her gloomy mood completely lifted as she stared at the awestruck doctor in front of her
-end of flashback-
"You know we agreed that you wouldn't call me that ever! in the hospital don't you?!?" she groaned
"hell yeah we did..so? We're alone in this room. Nobody even knows you went to military camp! Heck, nobody even knows I'm gay but you" they both stared at each other's eyes and suddenly..laughed
"hahahahah..haha..ha~" Hui Yin laughed, wiping the tear on her eye "you got me on that one, I almost forgot" she grinned
"anyway, you sure you can take care of yourself?"
"yep, just put some cast on me to prevent uhh..fracture. I may be working from home anyway."
"yeah, you're uber cool home. Can I stop by sometime?"
"go ahead"
...
CMH: are you resting?
AL: No Mr. Cheng, I'm getting discharged
CMH: Did the doctor advise you to?
AL: No Mr. Cheng, it was my will. I was planning to work from home if that would be possible?
CMH: en
AL: thank you, Mr Cheng
CMH: It's alright hon, I'm just worried about you
....
on the other side~
"give me back my phone"
"chill for a sec. I'm trying to hook you up with this chic" the atmosphere suddenly changed and Ming-hùa emitted a dangerously cold temperement
"fine, here I did my job anyways"
when he looked at her conversation with Hui Yin, he glared at her. If looks could kill, Lai Lily would be a thousand times dead by now.
When he saw that she was getting discharged, he thought about fetching her and bringing her home, but the excuse of him being her boss wasn't enough reason to get her. It would make her suspicious.
In the end, he picked up his coat and car keys and walked outside his office
...
"hey, are you alright?"
"huh? why?"
"your face us bright red, are you sick?"
"I'm completely fine" Hui Yin stared at her phone for a couple of minutes before asking
AL: Are you sick Mr. Cheng?
CMH: I feel dizzy
'ahhhh that explains it..he really didn't mean it then'
AL: you should rest then Mr. Cheng
CMH: en
"okay..this would be the last document you need to sign..and...you're free to go"
"thank you Derek"
"it's fine, anyway, who's bringing you home?"
"about that..what time does your shift end?"
"I'm free to go anytime, why? Ohhh...would you like me to bring you home?"
"if it wouldn't be much of a bother"
"sure thing, this would give me a chance to visit that villa of yours"
"actually, I'm not living there right now."
"where then?" he suddenly got curious. When Hui Yin told him the address, he was surprised by the level of safety she put in her cover.
"well, I'm sure that place of yours is not ordinary either. I'll just visit your villa some other day then"
Derek helped Hui Yin sit on the wheelchair and walked behind her. Slowly but surely, he pushed it towards the parking lot.
"you know, that b**ch Wen Qianji flew to France, that's why she isn't here"
"oh..and?"
"you seriously didn't pay her any attention huh?"
"hmmm"
"come on, did you at least feel anything after those years of bullying?"
"bullying? Pests don't need attention"
Derek: "....."
"anyway, let's get some pick-me-up on our way there. I'm famished" he said changing the topic
"hehe you're the driver"
both of them laughed as Derek carefully carried Hui Yin, sitting her on the front seat. When he was sure that she didn't feel umcomfortable, he hurriedly kept the wheelchair and placed it inside the trunk of the car before driving off.
None of them noticed the black Mustang that was parked behind them. Minutes later, it speeded out of the hospital and back to the villa where it first came from.
