Chapter 284 – Grudges(unedited)

"So did you," Shi Lu rolled up the sleeves of her white suit jacket as she folded her arms in front of her chest, ''The contract states that I only work for 3 days, at most 4 days. I was in Amaranthine yesterday when I got the call from the hospital that there is an emergency. I rushed here, taking the first flight, only to know that I was duped.''

The chairman flinched at her cold tone and with dark circles around her eyes, she looked no less than a zombie…A scary one.

''There is no emergency. Just a large queue of normal patients who were told that Dr. Shi is available today,'' She did not mind working it out for it was her profession and her job but that did not mean she would tolerate the hospital's poor work ethic. 

She did not get a wink of sleep since yesterday night. 

''Well, don't blame the hospital, Dr. Shi. We are helpless. You have offended a big shot.''

Shi Luo frowned, "And who did I offend?" 

"The Chief of Eminence, President Jun Zixuan,'' The Chairman announced smugly, relishing the look of shock on her face. Dr. Shi is usually nothing less than a tigress for there were not many people who would mess with her so this was indeed exciting to witness.

Shi Luo felt dizzy, her head took a few spins as she glanced at the middle-aged man, ''Which Zixuan did you say?"

''It's Jun… JUN ZIXUAN,'' The Chairman was happy to clear her doubts. Even getting a call from that big shot's assistant was something to be proud of for him. 

Shi Luo's phone started ringing in her hand. She glanced at the caller ID blankly before answering the call, "Mu Shen, Jun Zixuan is a jerk,'' She spoke through gritted teeth as she broke a vase from the office desk before storming out. 

The smile on the Chairman's face froze. W-What did she say? A-And why did it seem like she is familiar with the Chief of Eminence? 

Mu Shen…? Is it the film Emperor who comes from an influential family in Amaranthine? 

He could have denied his thoughts if it was any other person but then it was Shi Luo, she herself was a big shot. 

But he could believe about her knowing the film Emperor, but does she really know the Chief of Eminence?

Whatever it was, he felt glad that he has not offended her that much. He decided to treat this pearl, even more, better in the future. 

His gaze landed on his broken face, "My darling~" His heart broke. Why are these youngsters so hot-headed?

Shi Luo summarized everything to Mu Shen as she walked out of the hospital. 

"What are you talking about? Is it true?"

"What else? Am I lying?" She stepped inside her car before leaning back on the driver's seat. 

''But yesterday, Mei should have gone to confess to him…" Mu Shen's mind was still reeling on yesterday's revelations. Han Mei Yu Mei…Yu Mei Han Mei… Mei and Mei. Both are the same people. He was still quite shaken about it and wondered how his friend reacted to it. 

Another realization that dawned on him was that Jun Zixuan was insane when it came to love. He loved twice and loved the same person. 

"So, Ah Xuan should be busy digesting all that. Where would he get the time and energy to mess with you?" He sighed. Yesterday, while Shi Luo was updating him on the whole story, she received a call from the hospital for an emergency and so he dropped her at the airport and she went to Beijing on the first flight while his whole night was spent on solving the Han Mei and Yu Mei equation. It was astonishing for he has never heard of anything this wild and fantastical.

''How would I know?" Shi Luo banged her head on the steering wheel only to wince a second later. 

''…Unless you have offended him like hell…'' 

''Why would I offend him? Are you nuts-'' Shi Luo paused.

'Han Mei is very happy now. She fell in love with a waiter at a bar and they married within a month. She is a housewife now. They are busy in their lives since they are planning for their second child already….' 

Shi Luo flinched just recalling those words. Moreover, they were not the only things she told him, there were many exaggerations but hell, at that time, Yu Mei was sure about divorce. She blamed it on that woman who had to fall for Jun Zixuan after all her 'We are just friends. Just friend…Just friends…Yes, not more than that…JUST FRIEND.' 

Damn you girl! She swore she would not kill her off when she is back.

''How could I forget those lies of yours that left him depressed for a couple of days?" Mu Shen sighed, as he listened to her. He could not help but pity her. 

So, in the end, it was only Yu Mei, against whom Jun Zixuan would not hold a grudge. The rest of the world had to suffer his wrath in one way or another. 

Shi Luo dragged her exhausted body to her apartment. She pressed her forehead on the door, entering the pin but she was so sleepy that she ended up entering the wrong pin. She slapped her face before re-entering it. 

'Ding'

The door was unlocked and she stepped inside the dimly lit living room. By this time, she could already hear her bed calling her. 

She kicked away her shoes and threw away the car keys. She removed the suit jacket with her eyes still closed before removing the rest of her clothes, from her top to her jeans. Her body relaxed. She dragged herself to the guest room instead of walking to her bedroom which was at a distance. 

Without bothering to wash herself up, she stumbled towards the bed in the dark before slumping on it.

She covered herself with the blanket before closing her eyes, relishing the feeling of peace. 

Working for almost 20 hours straight…she could barely set apart east from west. Her body was not even responding anymore.
