Chapter 199: The mysterious foreign company
In the car, the atmosphere was cold as usual. With Mu Shufen driving the car and Li Wei sitting at the back with no words spoken by anyone. It's been 15 minutes like this, and they were about to reach the Li Corporations.
"Pfft"
"...."
Suddenly, a chuckle was heard from the backseat. Mu Shufen raised an eyebrow when he suspected that he felt like he heard something from Li Wei.
'Must be my imagination,' Mu Shufen thought as he dismissed the thought of hearing something, and resumed his focus on driving.
"Heh,"
Mu Shufen: "....."
Mu Shufen raised an eyebrow again, now he was sure that he had heard something from the back, was Li Wei calling him?
Because he was driving, he decided to look into the front mirror, rather than turning around himself.
Directing his vision towards the front mirror, Mu Shufen saw something that shocked him to the core. There was a smile on Li Wei's face, and he seemed to have been looking outside the window.
Mu Shufen took a moment to find out what was he seeing, he was confused and surprised.
"Is there anything outside? What made him laugh?!" Mu Shufen mumbled as he looked outside the window.
There was nothing special, cars and other vehicles passing that car either in the same direction or the opposite. It was something that they saw every day.
Mu Shufen on not finding the thing which made his boss laugh looked at the mirror again. In it, Li Wei still had a smile, his hand was trying to hide it, but it was still recognizable.
Did something happen? Why is he smiling so suddenly?
These were the questions going in Mu Shufen's mind. According to him, if Li Wei would ever laugh it would be a great joke. A joke or an issue that can make the whole world die of laughter.
Mu Shufen gulped.
He had absolutely no idea of what was going on in Li Wei's mind. And somehow he was feeling scared to ask.
As for the star of the show, that was Li Wei, he was very happy. Like he couldn't have been happier than this.
Thank you, husband
Thank you, husband
Thank you, husband
This sentence was the thing that his mind was filled with. The highlight of this sentence was 'husband' and the speaker of this sentence was his wife, Eliana, and he is the listener who couldn't just stop smiling like an idiot.
At this moment, he didn't care what happened or how much of a heart attack he was giving to Mu Shufen with this reaction of his, he was too happy right now.
Every time the scene of Eliana addressing him as 'husband' would come to his mind, a tooth grin formed on his face.
He didn't expect for it to be so easy, nor he believed that Eliana would call him husband when he asked for a kiss and teased her all morning.
Isn't it...flirting?!
Does that mean his wife flirted with him? Are you kidding right now?
[A/N: I wish I was! Did I commit a mistake making Eliana refer to you as a husband?]
[Li Wei: No! Of course not! You did right!]
No, this is real!
An immediate answer popped into Li Wei's mind. This was his first achievement, this also gave him confidence that he could make Eliana accept that she loves him.
...
"Chii...Ah chii"
"Chii" A sneeze suddenly came from Eliana out of nowhere. Rubbing her nose, which was slightly red now, she heard Iris, who was beside her, said, "You have sneezed three times continuously, and you look completely okay, then looks like someone is in love with you. Mm, Li Wei, right? He must be that someone!"
Listening to Iris, Eliana had a displeased expression on her face, rolling her eyes, she said, "There is nothing like that. These are all superstitions, do you really want me to lecture on this topic? And why are you bringing him in this?"
"He is your husband! And no, thanks. I would like to design ten more dresses instead of listening to your lectures, you know how much I despise it," Iris answered as she put her hands up, showing her dislike.
"Yeah, sure," Eliana said with a smug smile.
KNOCK
KNOCK
"Ma'am everything is ready," there was a knock on the door, and Mia entered and said this.
"Ooooh," Iris commented as she saw Eliana getting up from the seat.
They were sitting in The Cinq hall, and there was a room given to every member, Eliana went to her room, followed by Mia.
After 20 minutes, the door of Eliana's room opened.
CLICK
CLACK
The sound of heels could be heard and after a moment a figure similar to that of Eliana was revealed, but something was different about this person.
The person was wearing a basic white blouse shirt and a black long yet loose pencil skirt, the length reached below the knees and the skirt was loose from the end. To top it she was wearing a coat that didn't highlight her figure at all.
Her hair was made into bangs that covered her forehead. She was also wearing thick-rimmed spectacles, which made her unrecognizable.
She looked like a total nerd.
"Wow, never knew you can be turned into a total nerd," Iris commented as she was dumbfounded by Eliana's look.
"Are the preparations ready?" Eliana asked.
"Yes, this way please," said Mia as she led Eliana out of the room.
Eliana nodded.
"All the best, sis," Iris said as she waved hands to farewell Eliana.
Eliana smiled and then proceeded out of the room. She and Mia went to the private elevator and from there straight to the basement.
..
In the first hospital,
All of the meeting room was in utter chaos, with every person sitting there lashing out to put forward their points, but nothing was clearly heard.
"STOP!" Suddenly in the midst of all this, a voice was heard, it seemed to claim the authority of its owner.
As soon as the voice was heard, every sound in the room had paused, the people who were standing and speaking like a beast, were now quietly standing. The people who were talking among themselves acted as if they didn't know how to speak.
The room was completely opposite of what it was a moment before the voice was heard.
"Now that everyone is behaving like a human, we can start the talk," the person sitting at the chair opposite to that of the owner said.
This was the same person who had spoken a minute ago.
He was the person in his late forties and had regular features but alas, it wasn't the situation with his power. In the power chart, he was at the top.
Zhen Dong, the person who was given the power of the first hospital after the incident of a year ago which led to the unfortunate yet mysterious death of its new owner, Su Yu Yan, the adopted daughter of the Feng Family and the beloved of the Wen Family.
Since the incident happened, the whole Wen Family was in shock, the hospital was in chaos, no one was ready to take the reins of the hospital except this person who came out of his own.
Originally he was one of the minor shareholders in the shareholder chart. But he was the one who came out at the time of need when everyone was backing away. Many of the shares were sold and many were at stake.
Because the Wen Family were in no state to think anymore, they decided to handle the first hospital to Zhen Dong.
Everyone didn't believe that Zhen Dong would be able to handle it, but they were proved wrong in a span of a month when the First hospital made its return from the bottom of the hospital rankings to the top as it was before. He made the people buy the shares of the First Hospital and to help in fundings.
This continued for three months back to back and is continued till date. Happy with the progress, the Wen Family made Zhen Dong the C.E.O. of the first hospital, even though they remained the original owners.
Gradually, Zhen Dong gained the favors of the new shareholders that had replaced the previous board of directors.
His power increased up to such extent that most of the important decisions were taken consulting him, rather than the Wen Family, as the owners.
But today a shock had come to him and the whole board of directors when they were informed that the Wen Family had sold the First hospital to the Li Corporations and then a foreign company had bought it from the Li Corporations.
They had absolutely no idea about the identity of this foreign company and were completely clueless about the aftermath of this situation.
The mysterious foreign company will be making the entry today to introduce themselves.
