She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

I don’t know when Zhou Hanzhi appeared behind me. When I looked up, I saw the man looked tired and there was a hint of black under his eyes.

A rare embarrassment.

It seems that the afternoon tea this afternoon has caused both mother and son to have some gastrointestinal discomfort.

As the distance got closer, the man's gloomy eyes swept across my face and landed on Shen Hualan's face.

"Isn't your heart feeling uncomfortable? Why do you still have the energy to chat here?"

Although the words were not nice, there was obviously some concession in Zhou Hanzhi's tone.

Shen Hualan also noticed this, and sat directly on the reception chair nearby, raising her chin and saying, "You don't need to worry about me. Anyway, if you have Miss Lin, you won't care about your mother's life or death."

After she finished speaking, she turned away like a willful and unruly child.

Zhou Hanzhi frowned slightly after seeing this, his eyes suddenly moved to my face, and said, "She doesn't know the importance of the matter, and you are also fooling around?"

I looked at Zhou Hanzhi in surprise, a little confused for a moment.

No, what am I doing?

"Okay, Dr. Zhao is still waiting," Zhou Hanzhi said to Shen Hualan with a little helplessness in his tone, "Let's go over for an examination first."

"I won't go," Shen Hualan refused flatly, "I'm tired of seeing the same tricks every time I come here. Whoever wants to go for a check-up will go, but I won't go anyway!"

Shen Hualan looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, which was in sharp contrast to her body full of famous brands.

Although Zhou Hanzhi had a tough temper, he still couldn't be cruel to Shen Hualan. I thought that it was a matter between mother and son and I couldn't care about it anyway. When I was about to leave, I heard the man's stern voice: "Stand and do it like a piece of wood." What? Help her in."

I raised my eyes slightly and realized that Zhou Hanzhi was talking to me.

Be confident.

It is a fact that Shen Hualan is afraid of the examination, and it is also a fact that I am the person who has accompanied her to the hospital many times. So in Zhou Hanzhi's eyes, I am still the Meng Nanxu who can come and go when he calls, right?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou," I calmed down and said, "My family is still seeing a doctor. I'm sorry I can't stay here any longer."

Hearing the sound, Zhou Hanzhi's expression froze and he didn't answer for a while.

I guess he also thought that I came to contact Shen Hualan on purpose or even with ulterior motives.

Shen Hualan also noticed this and explained: "Xuxu's family is sick and they are in the inpatient department."

I answered immediately: "What Auntie said is true, Mr. Zhou, I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, I turned around and left. Unexpectedly, I heard an exclamation from Zhou Hanzhi's mouth just after taking two steps.

Looking back, Shen Hualan suddenly fainted and fell to the ground, her face pale.

Zhou Hanzhi and I helped Shen Hualan into the consultation room.

Fortunately, she woke up after a while, but she was very resistant to the examination and kept holding my hand.

In the past, I might have softened my heart and stayed, but this time is different. Thinking of my uncle who was still in the ward, I decisively let go of Shen Hualan's hand.

When I left the ward, I saw Shen Hualan's expectant and aggrieved eyes.

But I can't care about that much anymore.

What I didn't expect was that as soon as I reached the corner, I met Zhou Hanzhi who was coming back from the pharmacy.

Our eyes met, and before I could speak, I heard Zhou Hanzhi say, "Now that I have joined the Yan family, my attitude is indeed very different from before."

The same sarcastic tone, the same indifferent expression, but this second, it didn't create the slightest ripple in my heart.

He's always thought of me that way, hasn't he?

Thinking of this, I took a deep breath and said, "Didn't Mr. Zhou come up with any new words? It seems that your ability to curse people has not improved much after so long."

The look on Zhou Hanzhi's face was ugly to the naked eye. He took a step closer, looked at me condescendingly, and said angrily: "You haven't even entered the Yan family yet. Why don't you take me as an 'investor' seriously?"

He emphasized the pronunciation of the word "investor".

Only then did I realize that he might have heard my conversation with Shen Hualan.

I didn't want to have a conflict with him, so I could only apologize and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, Mr. Zhou? It's my honor to share your worries. However, when it comes to taking care of the investor's mother, shouldn't Mr. Zhou call his daughter?" Friends?"

It is reasonable for a prospective daughter-in-law to take care of her prospective mother-in-law.

I said this with a smile, but Zhou Hanzhi listened with a dark face, but what about his dark face? He and Lin Xixi have met each other's parents, wouldn't it be more appropriate to give orders to their little girlfriend?

After a brief look at each other, Zhou Hanzhi raised the corners of his mouth and let out a cold scoff: "Is Manager Meng too proud too soon?"

I don't know why Zhou Hanzhi said this out of nowhere. After giving him an indifferent look, he turned around and left.

But the next second, I heard him say again, "No matter which one it is, the Yan family or the Yuan family, it is impossible for an ordinary woman to marry into it, let alone the Yan family you met in the afternoon. Elder, he is a well-known crime solver. If he wants to investigate you, do you think you can hide your past?"

Suddenly, my feet stopped in place as if filled with lead.

Investigate the past.

If what Zhou Hanzhi said is true, then my aunt and the others...

I suddenly became a little nervous.

"So, Meng Nanxu, working on the project in a down-to-earth manner is much better than trying your best to attract men."

The more I listened, the more uncomfortable I became. When I turned around, Zhou Hanzhi had already left with his head held high.

I didn't want to start a verbal argument with him, but I felt vaguely uneasy in my heart.

It seems that I am indeed too close to the severe winter.

Early the next morning, Yan Dong took the male nurse to his uncle's ward as promised.

After the arrangements were made, I sent him to the parking lot.

In the face of severe winter, I transferred the cost of the caregiver to him.

Yan Dong looked at me in surprise after receiving the transfer, and said with a smile, "Nan Xu, why are you transferring so much? I..."

"Nursing fees, and..." I paused, "subsidy money."

I have learned from the nurse that the subsidy fee is a personal act of severe winter.

But he did it very skillfully and did not make his uncle suspicious.

Hearing this, Yan Dong scratched his head and said awkwardly: "I thought I was doing something mysterious, but I didn't expect it to be revealed. But Nan Xu, do we have to be so clear about it?"

"Wu Ling and I have settled the score," I smiled and said, "So you must accept the money."

Yan Dong sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

While we were talking, a volcanic red BMW parked in the parking space on our right. Because the other car braked suddenly, the tires made a screeching sound against the ground.

Yan Dong and I looked over at the same time, and saw a pretty figure getting out of the car. We took a closer look, who was it if it wasn't Lin Xixi?
