Chapter 44: Wu Mei Left

All the shareholders immediately stopped Wu Mei from reading further. Their attitude changed drastically.

“Young President Wu, we don’t know the inside story about you and President Li. To be honest… This matter doesn’t affect the company much.”

“Yes, yes, yes! The public relations department will immediately work overtime. We guarantee that the public discussions and news will be deleted within 24 hours. They won’t cause you any trouble!”

“In the future, our corporation will become better and better under your leadership! We’ll listen to you.”

These fence sitters changed their attitude and fawned over Wu Pang. They shouted louder and louder, making the fats on Wu Pang’s body tremble in anger!

“Alright, you guys can leave.”

Wu Mei waved her hand magnanimously and all the shareholders heaved a sigh of relief.

Rumble! The sound of tables and chairs rubbing against each other was ear-piercing.

Within a few seconds, there was no one left in the meeting room.

In the pantry, a few shareholders were gathered together and grumbling. All of them were muttering in fear, “Wu Pang is so stupid! He couldn’t win against Wu Mei, but he dragged us in to be the scapegoats! Looks like we have to be smarter in the future and not provoke Wu Mei again!”

“Yes, yes, yes!”

Wu Pang, who was passing by, shouted, “What are you talking about?!”

Everyone glanced at him in fake respect despite feeling indignant inside. Without saying anything, they dispersed.

Wu Mei looked at Wu Pang’s enraged expression from afar and lowered her head. A derisive smile flashed across her eyes.

…

In the VVIP ward in the hospital.

After receiving the news that the Old Master had woken up, the police finally allowed Li Nanchen to leave. Without further ado, he rushed to the ward. Seeing that the Old Master’s health stats had returned to normal, he finally felt at ease.

When the Li Family relatives, who were standing by the window, saw Li Nanchen approach, they immediately praised Lin Liguo’s medical skills.

“President Li, take a look! After you left last night, it was Dr Lin who did his best to save the Old Master, allowing the Old Master to recover!”

“I told you long ago not to trust that woman, Wu Mei. Only Dr Lin can cure the Old Master…”

Lin Liguo looked smug as he listened to the flattery.

He knew very well that he had not done anything.

Last night, Old Master Li was in a critical condition. The doctors had no choice but to let him in to give it a go. However, he had only lifted his hand and had not done anything else before the Old Master recovered on his own.

He guessed that it was highly likely that Wu Mei’s acupuncture had taken effect.

But so what?

No one knows!

Everyone had witnessed with their own eyes that Old Master Li had been treated by him!

Relying on the fact that Old Master Li was no longer in danger, Lin Liguo pretended to be a hero and said, “President Li, I’ve done what I promised you and saved Old Master Li. When are you going to marry Piaopiao? Don’t you dare go back on your word! Otherwise, the next time, Old Master Li’s condition…” Lin Liguo tried to threaten him.

Li Nanchen glanced over coldly. The rest of Lin Liguo’s words were lodged in his throat and he froze.

Last night, he was really frightened by Li Nanchen…

“Nanchen, our Li Family has always kept our promise. You…”

Out of consideration for the benefits, the uncles from the collateral branch of the Li family wanted to rush him, but they were afraid of Li Nanchen. Before even finishing their sentence, they pretended to cough and averted their gaze.

Director Xu pushed open the door and entered. Sensing the weird atmosphere, he went over to Li Nanchen.

Li Nanchen looked at him inquiringly.

Director Xu frowned and told him the truth in a low voice, “President Li, I saw it with my own eyes last night. It was indeed Dr Lin who saved the Old Master and treated him. We’ve checked and the poison in Old Master’s body has been completely eliminated…”

Li Nanchen’s expression was cold as he glanced coldly at the uncomfortable Lin Liguo. After a long time, he finally gave the order, “From today onwards, Lin Liguo will resume his status as Grandpa’s personal doctor and be partners with Director Xu in Grandpa’s treatment. As for the marriage, we’ll talk about it after Grandpa recovers.”

Lin Liguo secretly wiped the sweat off his face.

Although the outcome did not satisfy him completely, at least he had regained his status. In the future, he would still have a chance to let Lin Piaopiao get close to Li Nanchen.

Li Nanchen patted Director Xu’s shoulder and led him to a remote corner. “Help me keep an eye on Lin Liguo. If he dares to pull any tricks…”

He narrowed his eyes. Director Xu immediately felt a chill run down his spine and nodded vigorously.

In the evening, Li Nanchen returned to the villa and casually threw his jacket on the sofa. Exhausted, he looked around the empty house.

He did not see that familiar figure.

Li Nanchen knew that Wu Mei had left.

She brought all her things with her, as if she had never been here.

This woman…

Is she not in the least bit reluctant to leave?

Although he had already guessed the outcome, Li Nanchen still could not help but feel dejected for a moment.

He pushed open the bedroom door. The air still had a unique smell that belonged to Wu Mei…

On the bedside table were two signed papers. Li Nanchen picked them up and used his fingers to stroke Wu Mei’s beautiful handwriting. His lips curled up into a wry smile.
