Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

Wu Wang was rushed into the emergency room and doctors immediately started the treatment. "Doctor, what’s wrong with Wang Ge?" Xu Mey asked anxiously seeing a doctor leaving the room.

"Miss, the patient’s condition is not very hopeful at the moment. He has gotten severe alcohol poisoning. We’re trying our best but you should be prepared for other consequences." The doctor’s left Xu Mey frozen to her place.

’Alcohol poisoning?’ She fell back on the chairs in the corridor while her mind was reeling. ’Why is this happening with me? First, dad and now, Wang Ge...’ She didn’t realize that a tear had trickled down her face.

"Ms. Xu," Wu Wang’s secretary placed her hand over Xu Mey’s shoulder to get her attention. "Should I inform anyone?"

’Inform? Right! I need to tell someone.’ Xu Mey took deep breaths to calm herself, wiped her tears, and pulled out her cell phone to make a call.

"Qiao Ge, Wang Ge is in the hospital. Come fast and don’t tell aunt about it. Not yet!" Xu Mey didn’t wait for his answer and disconnected the call.

Then she made another call, "Ah-Jie, where are you?"

"Baby, I told you I’m leaving for Imperial in the morning. Did you forget?" Ye Jie answered with a frown. "Is everything okay?" He inquired feeling her tone a bit odd.

"Huh? Yeah! Everything is fine. Call me when you’re free." Xu Mey hung up the call and didn’t know what else to do.

She sat alone in the corridor holding her head. She was fidgeting due to the nervousness. She was constantly feeling on edge with a strange irritation crawling up in her heart. Her heart was uneasy as if something bad was gonna happen.

"Xiao Mey," hearing He Jian’s voice, Xu Mey turned her face to see all of her friends running up to her side. Xu Mey immediately shot up from the chair and hugged He Jian. "How’s he?" He Jian asked while stroking her hair.

"I don’t know." Xu Mey shook her head.

"Let me check," Lin Shen turned and entered the emergency room without any restrictions since the hospital belonged to his own family. Who would dare to stop him?

"Calm down! There is no need to panic." He Jian tried to soothe Xu Mey as he rubbed her back in a circular motion.

Lin Shen came out of the room with a glum look. "Shen Ge, what’s going on?" Xu Mey looked at him expectantly. "I need to see him."

"Little Mey, first calm down!" Lin Shen helped her to take a seat and crouched down to come at her level saying, "The doctors have pumped his stomach to flush out the fluids but since his breathing wasn’t getting under control, they had to add a breathing tube in his windpipe. It’s better if you don’t see him right now."

Xu Mey felt her own breathing getting harsh as she asked, "But he’s okay? Right?"

Lin Shen smiled softly and nodded his head, "He’s unconscious but he’s out of danger now." Xu Mey breathed a sigh of relief not noticing the look in Lin Shen’s eyes. "Now, go and splash some water on your face. And take some fresh air. Wang won’t be happy seeing you like this."

Xu Mey smiled nodded and got up to leave. "Also, eat something as well." Xu Mey heard He Jian’s voice from behind.

Seeing her disappearing figure, Li Qiao turned to Lin Shen asking, "Now, spill the truth."

Lin Shen looked at both He Jian and Li Qiao before telling them. "He’s not okay. At least, not for the next 48 hours." He shook his head and added, "The doctors did all they could. Now, he’s in a coma and if he didn’t wake up in the next 48 hours. He might never wake up again."

"Sh*t!" Li Qiao cursed out.

"He always drank reasonably. What changed?" He Jian wasn’t the only one thinking about this.

Li Qiao looked at Wu Wang’s secretary who was craning her neck trying to eavesdrop and beckoned her to come closer. "Yes, Sir!"

"So, Jennie! Who met your boss before his abnormal drinking escapade?" Li Qiao’s question made Jennie look around before she answered honestly.

"Mr. Ming Qu came to see him, Sir."

"Ming Qu?" The three of them shared the same expression.

"What did they talk about?" He Jian inquired this time staring directly at Jennie. She felt intimidated by their stares.

"How would I know that, sir?" Jennie cowered but obviously, none of them bought it.

"Cut the cr*p, Jennie! You’re not like Wang’s personal assistant, Suzy. She likes to keep her distance from someone’s personal life but you don’t. You have a very bad habit of eavesdropping." Lin Shen pointed out making Jennie feel embarrassed.

She fixed her glasses and with a sullen face said, "For that reason, the boss didn’t let me stay inside his office. But while I went to drop the coffee, I heard a name. What was it?" She rubbed her temples and as if her mind’s bulb was lit, she said, "Zhou Qi. Yup! That’s the one. They were talking about someone named Zhou Qi but I have no idea who she is."

She noticed the way their expressions changed just listening to that name and decided to stay quiet. "You can leave now." He Jian waved her off and she bowed before leaving rather reluctantly.

"I knew she’ll be the death of him someday." Li Qiao grumbled and the other two couldn’t help but agree with him.

"Dr. Lin, this is the patient’s cell phone. It’s been ringing for a while now." A nurse came out to pass Wu Wang’s cell phone to Lin Shen.

"Who’s calling?" Li Qiao asked and Lin Shen turned the screen towards him letting him see the caller id: Mother Empress. "Don’t pick up. I can lie to my own mother but Wang’s mother is a lie detector."

"I wasn’t planning on attending the call either. Aunt Bingbing might not be able to take this blow. She has already lost her eldest daughter and now, her one and only son is standing at the door of death. I have no courage to tell her this news." Lin Shen replied with a heavy heart and bit his tongue realizing that he wasn’t supposed to talk about Wu Wang’s sister before He Jian.

"Give me the phone," He Jian took the phone and talked pleasantly to Fan Bingbing telling her that Wang had forgotten his phone with him. Disconnecting the call, he saw the odd looks from his friends and shrugged his shoulders indifferently. As he was passing the phone to Lin Shen, his eyes fell on the wallpaper of Wu Wang’s phone.

There was a quote, it read: ’Drink the sweet poison of Love, it will only drive you mad. But don’t wish for loneliness, it feels like a deadly banishment.’

He wasn’t the only one who noticed the wallpaper, Lin Shen and Li Qiao also had read the words. The three of them had the same thought in mind; How come they never noticed that his smile was actually killing him inside?
