Although the speakerphone was not on, the roar on the phone was louder than the normal speakerphone volume.
Lin Yi, who was not far away, heard it clearly.
Hearing the roar on the phone, Li Chuhan’s voice became a little uneasy. After learning who the other party was, her expression and voice became cold.
“What are you doing?”
There was something she didn’t want Lin Yi to know.
She had tried her best to erase her past experiences and memories, but she had never thought that they would slowly be revealed in such a situation.
“They scratched my car. Isn’t it natural for them to compensate me?”
“What do you mean natural? You earn so much money every year. You can spend money to repair it yourself, but you actually ask for 100,000 yuan from others. Do you have any conscience?!”
“This is my business. It has nothing to do with you. From now on, don’t contact me anymore. I don’t owe you anything.”
“Then don’t come back in the future! Don’t go to the grave in the mountain either!”
The other party hung up angrily, but Li Chuhan stood there coldly, thinking about something.
“Have a cup of tea to calm down,” Lin Yi said.
“Thank you.”
The two of them sat on the sofa. Lin Yi asked casually, “Who called you?”
“My dad.” Li Chuhan didn’t hide it at all.
“Ever since my mother passed away, I left that family. Other than to visit to my mother’s grave, I won’t go home at all. After visiting grave, I’ll come back.”
“There are so many cemeteries in Zhonghai. Why didn’t you think of moving the grave?”
“I’m just a doctor. I don’t have that kind of ability. No one will let me move.”
“Isn’t that simple? Where’s your hometown? When are you going to pay her respects? I’ll go back with you and help you move back.”
“It’s in Beiqiao Town below Yangcheng,” Li Chuhan said. “But our town is famous for being poor. Are you willing to go back with me?”
“What’s wrong with that? I’m not going to Beiqiao Town to be a live-in son-in-law.”
“Thank you.”
This was the first time Lin Yi saw a burning spirit in Li Chuhan’s eyes. It was as bright as autumn water.
Like a stone falling into water, the ripples surged with a faint light.
“Why do you always say thank you? It’s so annoying.”
“Then should I say something else?”
“Don’t say anything. Just take it for granted.”
“You’ve helped me so much. I feel bad if I don’t do anything.”
“Then think of something else.”
“I have no plans to get married and have children. If you have children, I can help you take care of them. I can also come and help you clean up the house. If there’s something you need, as long as it’s within my abilities, I’ll help you.”
“How can I bear to let you do this?” Lin Yi stroked Li Chuhan’s soft hair. “We’ll talk about this later.”
“Got it.”
At noon, the two of them had a meal at the Jiuzhou Pavilion before Li Chuhan drove home.
The next morning, Lin Yi went to work as usual.
As soon as she arrived at the department, she heard Qiao Xin exclaim.
“Director Li, you’re wearing makeup!”
“What are you talking about? I never wear makeup.”
“Of course you are!” Qiao Xin said. “The color of this lip gloss seems to be from Givenchy. Although it’s very faint, I can still tell.”
Lin Yi looked at Li Chuhan. She did apply a little bit of makeup.
Qiao Xin was really something. As expected of an old fan of Conan, she was very observant.
“Sister Xin, stop talking. If you embarrass Director Li, she will find a reason to send you away,” Yuan Siqi said.
“Hehe, then I won’t say anything else. A woman makes herself pretty for her lover.”
“Looks like the butterfly knot incident had a big impact on her, because before that, Director Li never put on makeup.”
“Stop, stop, stop. Let’s stop talking. Otherwise, we’ll really be sent away.”
Li Chuhan pulled a long face and said, “Both of your attendances this month are D’s.”
“Ah?!”
Qiao Xin and Yuan Siqi wanted to cry.
“Brother Lin, please help us plead for leniency. If the attendance is marked as a D, we won’t be able to feed ourselves this month,” Qiao Xin said.
“She’s already given you a D, so of course I can’t change it,” Lin Yi said, “Count how much money you’ll miss out on. I’ll compensate you when we get our pay.”
“Really?”
“It’s just a few thousand dollars.”
“That’s enough, why are you still making up for the different?” Li Chuhan said, “I’ll just change it back to A’s.”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Look, Director Li can’t bear to see Brother Lin spend money.”
“Xinxin, it’s not a problem for lower-status people like us!”
“Hehe, I’m not doing this for my own interest,” Qiao Xin said.
“It’s just a pity. I won’t be able to eat the bananas Brother Lin feeds me in the future.”
“Don’t even think about it,” Yuan Siqi said. “From now on, Brother Lin’s bananas can only be fed to Director Li.”
Lin Yi subconsciously glanced at Li Chuhan.
Before this, he had not realized that her thin lips seemed to look even better after applying the lip gloss.
Li Chuhan also looked at Lin Yi and thought to herself, ‘Do you really want to feed me yourself?’
Because she didn’t want to listen to Qiao Xin’s nonsense, Li Chuhan went out to do a ward round.
After the female lead left, everyone in the department began to do their own things.
Ring!
Lin Yi’s phone rang at this moment. He thought that it was Zhao Qi calling to remind him to go for tea in the afternoon.
Unexpectedly, it was an unfamiliar number.
“Hello? Director Lin, this is Director Miao Guofeng.”
“Um…”
Lin Yi paused for a second, not expecting Miao Guofeng to call him.
“Can I help you?”
“I have something on. I want to talk to you, Sir. Is it convenient for you to come to my office?”
“Sir?”
This honorific title stunned Lin Yi.
Even Li Chuhan had never used such a term. As a dignified and upright director, wasn’t he being a little too polite?
“Alright, I’ll come over now.”
“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll wait for you in the office.”
After hanging up, Lin Yi put his hands in his pockets and walked to Miao Guofeng’s office.
The department fell silent. Wang Zeyi had seen everything that had just happened.
By now, he knew that he had no chance of fighting Lin Yi.
However, there was still a problem that he could not figure out.
Lin Yi was already so rich, so why did he still come to the hospital to be a doctor?
Could it be that it was really like in idol dramas where rich children pursued their dreams?
Wasn’t that a little ridiculous?
Wang Zeyi twirled his pen angrily. He knew that he was in a disadvantageous position, but there was still a glimmer of hope.
He would use his family’s connections to contact the leaders of the hospital and get them to fire Lin Yi!
This way, he would be put in a strong position!
Thinking of this, Wang Zeyi stood up and walked toward Duan Yongchun’s office.
His father had gotten him the position of director here because of his connections.
Now that Zhao Jianwei had been caught, it was the perfect time to talk to him about it!
When he arrived at Duan Yongchun’s office, Wang Zeyi pushed the door open and entered.
Realizing that there was no one in the office, he turned to the administrative office and asked,
“Do you know where Director Duan went?”
“I think Director Duan went to Director Miao’s office.”
