Chapter 52 - Behind The Scenes

Nan Rouchu got out of the shower when her phone rang.

She walked over and saw an unknown number.

Something meaningful flashed past her eyes.

She answers.

"I told you not to call me if it's not important" she said.

"The girl is dead" a strange voice answered.

"I already know that, and what's the condition of the patient?" Nan Rouchu asked.

"She appears to be in a coma" the man answered.

"Well I want her dead" Nan Rouchu replied.

"It's heavily guarded and only one doctor is allowed to go in-

"I don't care, just finish the fucking job or else you won't get your money" Nan Rouchu ordered and she hung up immediately.

Nan Rouchu angrily tossed her phone to the corner and she looks at the mirror.

"Why can't you just die Lin Meiyin" she cursed.

"I'll make sure the last place you'll ever be is that hospital bed" she continued and there was a knock on the door followed by an opening.

It was Shi Lou.

"Master Nan is awake" he said with a frown.

Nan Rouchu nods softly.

Eyes pitiful.

"I understand, but I don't have the courage to face him now" she said.

"We just gave you the news, we're not letting you out without his permission, have a goodnight" Shi Lou replied.

The door closes.

And Nan Rouchu 's pitiful expression changes to a wicked one.

She brings out the phone she had been hiding.

She goes towards her gallery and she smiles at the pictures she took.

"Why don't you love me Chenyu"she sulked.

She caressed the picture of Gu Chenyu in her phone.

That wasn't the only one, there were many pictures of Gu Chenyu that she secretly took.

And no one seemed to notice.

---

It's been two weeks and Gu Chenyu was as miserable as ever he cumbered himself with a lot of work and travelled from time to time.

He was currently fixing some issues in Italy.

He had grown a little stubble on his face and the workers where like ants on a hot pan.

Everyone felt his darkness.

A slightest mistake could get you fired..

Today was one of the days, while in a conference meeting his voice was like lightning.

"Tell Choi builders that if they haven't got the materials ready in two days, they should kiss the contract goodbye"he threatened.

"We'll be leaving for America tonight tell Mr Wesley I changed my mind" he ordered.

"But President Lu Mr Wesley hasn't decided to sell the shares he's still unwilling" Chang replied.

Gu Chenyu says nothing when his phone suddenly rings.

The room seemed to freeze.

And everyone was on their heels.

Who on earth sent them to hell this time.

Gu Chenyu's facial expression turns darker.

His gaze like a knife and he feels a vibration in his pocket.

He takes out his phone and sees the caller ID.

Aunt Fei.

His nose twitched and he answers.

"If you want to check on me, I'm fine" he immediately said to her.

"I know, Meiyin is out of ICU she made it, she could wake up anytime" Aunt Fei broke the news to him.

Gu Chenyu who was impatiently tapping the desk with his fingers.

Stopped.

His dancing fingers froze.

And the workers noticed his eyes brightened.

He stood up immediately and arranged his coat.

"I'm on my way" he answered immediately.

Chang who was already booking a flight stopped.

"Chang I've changed my mind we're leaving for Beijing" he said to Chang.

"Get the jet ready" he added walking out of the office.

"What about Mr Wesley I already sent him a message" Chang explained.

"Cancel it" he immediately cut Chang off.

Leaving everyone stunned.

Everyone watched Gu Chenyu leave the meeting room in a hurry and seemed to catch their breath.

Chang immediately went after the President holding a file.

He had forgotten to approve the project for the new software model.

Lin Meiyin was taken into a normal VIP ward.

Aunt Fei looked at Lin Meiyin sleeping peacefully.

She held her hand and then wiped a stray tear.

"I'm so glad you made it"she muttered.

"Just come back to us" she continued.

"If you leave how will I fix Chenyu again" she sighed.

A nurse passed by the ward and she looked in.

Without anyone noticing, she walks away in a hurry and then she goes to a corner and takes out her phone.

"She's out of ICU, I'll make sure there's a way for you to get in" she said confidently.

"Good I'll be there tonight make sure there's no one there" the voice on the other end replied.

The nurse nodded.

"I got it" she answered hanging up.
