Chapter 9 Everything is Over
Chapter 9 Everything is Over
It wasn't until my fifth day in the hospital that I realized something was wrong.
At the time, I was designing a gift box for an outsourcing company that I had just contacted.
If the design is completed and the client is satisfied, five thousand will be credited to your account.
The amount isn't small, but it's enough for me now.
I also cherish this hard-won job very much.
Just as the first plan was almost finished, the outsourcing company contacted me. They told me to stop working on it for now, and they even compensated me 1,000 yuan for the time lost.
I was very surprised.
It wasn't just because of the sudden cancellation of work.
Also because of this 1,000 yuan compensation.
In any industry, if a project is not completed or the client is not satisfied with the work, you can avoid taking any responsibility whatsoever.
This applies to large projects.
My little gift box design has received unprecedented special treatment.
I couldn't help but become suspicious.
I had to ask several times before they finally let me look at information about the entertainment industry.
I don't understand.
Five minutes later, I took a deep breath.
Looking at the overwhelming amount of information about my appearance, resume, and contact details online, I fell into deep thought.
I messaged the contact person at the outsourcing company: "Sorry for taking up your time."
"It's alright, it's alright. If I had known that you were President Song's husband, I wouldn't have dared to let you design things for our little workshop. We couldn't afford that price either."
His words were humble and modest, but his refusal was quite obvious.
"We'll have another chance to work together in the future."
"Okay, Mr. Zhang, we will work hard and strive to make our future proposals meet your expectations."
I chatted with the contact person from the outsourcing company for a few more minutes, but the conversation just couldn't continue.
Losing one source of income could mean losing all job opportunities later on.
My mood naturally plummeted to its lowest point.
I shut down my computer and wanted to close my eyes and rest for a while.
The room door was pushed open at that moment.
A nurse pushed a treatment cart through the door and came in.
I didn't take it seriously.
My current attitude towards treatment is that it's optional.
When the doctor came to examine me, I cooperated. When the nurse helped administer IV fluids and medication, I also cooperated.
The accident happened at that moment.
I was resting with my eyes closed, and my thoughts were in a mess, so I only glanced at the nurse when she came in.
When she was rummaging through the treatment cart, I also assumed she was looking for needles or medicine.
A knife flashed, about to plunge into my chest, before I realized what was happening.
With wide eyes and lightning-fast reflexes, he dodged the knife aimed at his heart, then swiftly grabbed the laptop from beside the bed and smashed it down on her.
The nurse was hit by a computer, but she was still unwilling to give up and lunged at me with a knife.
My heart stopped, and I hurriedly got off the hospital bed, grabbing whatever was available at hand.
Unfortunately, the ward was too clean; there was nothing on the bed or on the cabinet.
My heart was filled with despair. I wanted to ask something, but when I saw the nurse's face, I suddenly stopped moving.
"Are you Yu Chengliang's ex-girlfriend?"
When the fake nurse's identity was exposed, she became even more ferocious instead of being afraid.
She was extremely angry, and the words she uttered were vicious.
"Why don't you just die? If you die, Yu Chengliang will get what he wants, and that bitch Song Yafei will let me go."
I find it absurd.
"Whether Song Yafei lets you go or not has nothing to do with whether I live or die. Even if I die, will Yu Chengliang really get what he wants?"
Stop being funny.
Someone like Yu Chengliang wouldn't last long in the business world before being completely devoured.
People give him face only because of Song Yafei's lover.
Once he becomes a legitimate spouse, most business people will ridicule him so much that he can't hold his head up high.
On the surface, it looks glamorous.
Malice is rampant in private.
Before long, Yu Chengliang will not be able to stand it anymore, and then he will walk on the edge of legality.
The fake nurse didn't understand: "No, if you die, they can get married, and I, your ex-girlfriend, will be completely a thing of the past. No one will bother me anymore, no one will bother me anymore."
She kept repeating that phrase, and her actions as she rushed towards me became erratic.
The bodyguards outside rushed in, subdued her, and took her out of the ward.
One of the bodyguards glanced back at me as he closed the door.
He met my indifferent gaze.
I clearly saw the bodyguard's body tremble.
I didn't pay attention.
I didn't care.
I know exactly what those bodyguards are up to.
But I really don't care anymore.
I lay back down on the bed, still feeling shaken.
I forced myself to close my eyes and go to sleep.
But all I could hear was the noise, the last words of that fake nurse.
"No one will bother me anymore."
A few minutes later, I couldn't take it anymore and opened the door, sending two bodyguards to investigate the fake nurse.
At the very least, help her contact a psychiatrist, or place her in a safe place.
The bodyguard looked at me with surprise.
After a long silence, he finally asked, "You...don't you hate me?"
"Hate?" I shook my head. "Hate a pathetic wretch?"
The bodyguard looked at me with a complicated expression: "We will contact President Song."
“No need,” I stopped him. “Just contact any friends or colleagues you know and ask them to take a look.”
I looked out the window, my thoughts drifting away: "Consider it as doing good deeds for my next life."
I closed the ward door to block the bodyguard's probing gaze.
Regardless of whether he will actually do as I suggested and occasionally take some time to visit Yu Chengliang's ex-girlfriend's house.
After all that, my body and mind couldn't take it anymore.
Just as I was about to fall asleep, the doctors, nurses, and hospital security all gathered inside.
After a series of police interrogations and review of surveillance footage, and only after my repeated pleas, did they drop their charges against Yu Chengliang's ex-girlfriend.
The doctors were very puzzled.
I was too lazy to explain, so I just gave a perfunctory reply: "Isn't this the kind of thing that you least like to happen in your hospital?"
The doctor was speechless.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Zhang." The hospital's vice president rushed over and personally bowed to express his gratitude.
I feel flattered and overwhelmed.
The vice president breathed a sigh of relief at my words: "Mr. Zhang, to be honest, we can't interfere in your matter with President Song, but..."
I interrupted him: "I understand, I'll try my best."
I tried my best not to involve the family feud between me and Song Yafei in places like hospitals.
If the hospital doesn't handle things properly, Song Yafei can severely damage the hospital with just a flick of her finger.
The vice president thanked me repeatedly with gratitude.
Little did he know that my role in all of this was negligible.
Instead of wasting your time trying to please me, you should try to get closer to Song Yafei.
The vice president didn't care about any of that.
They remained respectful towards me.
Only after he left did I finally have time to rest.
In a daze, I vaguely saw Sasha running towards me and Song Yafei with a smile.
I stood next to Song Yafei.
Song Yafei sat on the sofa, smiling even more brightly than Sasha.
I was so startled that I sat up abruptly.
Looking up, I saw Song Yafei's tired and concerned face.
