novelHating the Rich
| ← Ch.0703 | Ch.0705 → |
Li Haoran knew that Li Beinian did not like him.
However, he did not expect her to be this unfriendly!
Could it be that she really wanted to sever ties with him?
Li Haoran's expression changed and his heart sank.
No way!
He had been her father for so many years, and now she was allowing Mu Xichen to mess with his company?
What sort of logic was this!
Chi Hailang walked in and felt inexplicably refreshed at the thought of Li Haoran's expression.
Li Beinian was still leaning back on the bed and trying to make a call. She didn't look the least bit unwell.
Chi Hailang described to her vividly what had happened, and realized that although she responded, she obviously wasn't elated.
She suddenly asked, "Which ward is the injured person in?"
"The ward at the end of the corridor. It's the best ward in the hospital. It used to be a six-person room, but now it's been converted to a single room." As he spoke, Chi Hailang revealed an expression of hatred for the rich."It must have cost a lot!"
"Help me up." Li Beinian struggled to get up."I have to go see him."
Chi Hailang hurried forward and said, "Look at the time now. You've just woken up. But he did not."
"No matter what, I have to pay them a visit."
Chi Hailang could not disagree with that sentiment.
Hence, he helped Li Beinian towards the ward at the end of the corridor.
When they came up to the ward, Chi Hailang noticed a difference in the ward door.
The door number 66, which was originally attached, had disappeared. Apart from that, there was a soundproofing board attached to the door, and written on the soundproofing board in a beautiful script were the words in English: Do Not Disturb.
"Tsk, tsk." Chi Hailang's hatred for the rich was stirred again."How awesome is this guy. Please do not disturb him. Do you still want to go and see him?"
Li Beinian stood there for a moment and said, "Forget it. It's late and he might be resting. Let's come back tomorrow."
Chi Hailang thought so too. Supporting Li Beinian, he turned around, only to run into a white-haired English gentleman.
Li Beinian was startled when she saw the old man.
The old man's face was etched with deep lines. He wore a pair of gold-framed glasses on his high nose bridge, and his white hair was held back meticulously with hair gel.
The pure black suit he wore was neatly pressed and clean; there was a black bow around the collar of his white shirt. The vibes of a quiet temperament surrounded him, there was a smile on his face. All up, he appeared polite and elegant.
Behind the old man stood a young Xia Nation man in a black suit; he wore a badge on his chest. Obviously, he was a restaurant waiter.
In his hands was a tray bearing exquisite silver cloches, three in total. There were also knives and forks in a transparent box. The napkin was inconspicuously placed in a corner.
Li Beinian noticed that the napkin was square and bore the restaurant's name.
The old gentleman looked at Li Beinian, and then glanced at Chi Hailang. Then he asked politely, "Are you Miss Chi?"
He spoke clearly in fluent Chinese, with a hint of British accent.
Li Beinian was surprised and replied, "Yes, I'm Chi Beinian. May I know who you are..."
"I'm Nico's butler. My name is Will." Will bowed slightly the way a polite gentleman would."I'll speak with Nico. Please wait a moment."
