The wind was too strong, and quite a few people were swept up by the tornado and harshly reprimanded.
Things remained this way until a week later...
"President, the caregiver just called and said Miss Su has returned to the Qin family."
Lin Shen had just returned from the out-of-town branch and had not even had time to rest. As soon as he received the news, he hurried over to report it.
Last time, he had been sent away because he had failed to handle the president's business properly, so he had to be extra careful this time.
Qin Mohan continued reading the documents behind his desk without even looking up, though his expression had grown considerably gloomier.
"Ahem."
Lin Shen cleared his throat twice and said worriedly:
"Miss Su's leg hasn't healed yet. If she goes back alone like this, could she accidentally injure herself again and worsen her condition?"
After a pause, he saw the pen in the president's hand stop, so he hurriedly continued:
"Madam Qin seems to dislike her very much and is always giving her trouble. I heard Mr. Qin doesn't think much of her either, and the Qin family's servants often mock and bully her behind her back."
Yes, these were all things he had found out during this period. He wasn't wronging anyone from the Qin family, so it didn't count as deceiving the president.
"What does that have to do with me?"
With a sharp smack, Qin Mohan slammed the fountain pen onto the desk, his eyes filled with anger. "Who let her go back?"
He had told her that whatever she wanted to do or have, he could help her.
Yet she had rejected him without even giving it any consideration.
She clearly didn't have to go back, but she had insisted on returning.
And what was wrong with that fellow Nie Feng?
Her leg injury had not even healed yet. How could he have let her leave the hospital?
Lin Shen knew it. Although the president claimed it had "nothing to do with him," he actually cared in his heart.
Hadn't he previously said she was "just a slightly cute little pet," only to turn around and protect her like a treasure?
He had slapped himself in the face. He probably didn't even know whether it hurt.
Lin Shen raised his hand to check the time. It was already five o'clock, so Su Qiao should have set off by now.
"President, Miss Su left a while ago. She should be almost at the Qin residence by now. I wonder how she'll get up the stairs by herself in a wheelchair..."
He had visited the Qin family's Old Manor several times long ago. There were a few steps leading into the main hall.
"Go back." Qin Mohan shot to his feet, his face gloomy. He grabbed his suit jacket from the back of the chair and left.
Lin Shen froze for a moment, then hurried after him. "President, go back where?"
"Where do you think?" Qin Mohan gave him a cold sidelong glance before entering the private elevator.
"Understood." Lin Shen's heart blossomed with joy as he quickly followed him into the elevator.
At the same time, his estimation of Su Qiao's position in the president's heart rose several notches.
One had to know that the president had not set foot in the Qin family's main residence for two whole years.
Ever since the old master had died two years ago, he had not stepped inside even once.
Now, because of Su Qiao, he was returning there again. This showed just how much weight she carried in his heart.
All in all, there was hope that his president would finally become attached.
More importantly, the people at the company would no longer stare at his backside all day long.
Damn it, what were those people thinking every single day?
Even if he really wanted to sell himself, it would still depend on whether the president wanted him, right?
*
Su Qiao had been in the hospital for ten days, and the injuries on her body had almost completely healed.
Apart from some lingering pain in her ankle, there was no problem at all.
Of course, to keep up appearances, she had not let the doctor remove the cast on her right ankle. Thus, she returned to the Qin residence in a wheelchair.
Unfortunately, just after getting out of the car, she ran into Mother Qin, Guo Xiaoyu, and Qin Yu at the entrance to the Qin family's hall.
Guo Xiaoyu had fair skin and a slender, delicate appearance. Her small face was also pretty and dignified.
Her eyes were filled with innocence, she was well-behaved, and she had a sweet mouth.
She looked like a simple, harmless little rabbit.
