Before getting off work, Huo Sishen glanced at the assistant area outside.
He gave Si Yi a chilly look.
Si Yi understood in a second and walked out.
After five minutes, he returned.
Meanwhile, in the assistant area outside, Xu Jiao, who was still gorgeously dressed today, had specially applied bright red lip gloss.
She was about to go in to deliver documents.
However, she heard an exclamation from behind her.
"Did you guys hear? The boss of the business department was diagnosed with a tumor. "
"Ah? Is that true? "
"Three days ago, he went into the boss's office and sat there for ten minutes."
"Ah! Did he forget?! "
"He's really unlucky?!"
"How many times has it been?"
Xu Jiao was confused, but she vaguely felt that this gossip was bad news for her.
She reached out and asked weakly in the group of assistants.
"What's going on?"
The company had too many businesses.
The scope was extremely wide.
One assistant couldn't complete all the coordination work with all the departments.
Xu Jiao was considered a personal assistant.
She was responsible for Huo Sishen's booking of plane tickets, hotels, daily food orders, and coffee.
Besides Si Yi, she was also the one who entered the office the most frequently.
She had been here for less than a week.
She had already entered the boss's office more than ten times.
Xu Jiao's heart thumped.
"Didn't the new employee tell you?"
A middle-aged man wearing a pair of spectacles leaned back in his chair while hugging his beer belly.
"It's written in the handbook to keep a distance from the boss."
Xu Jiao was stunned.
She knew.
"Isn't he obsessed with cleanliness?"
The middle-aged man's expression suddenly became unfathomable.
He lowered his voice.
He carefully glanced at the CEO's office.
"Boss, there's evil in life."
Xu Jiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Hm? Brother Zhou, isn't this superstition? "
"Didn't you join the company group? Oh, you came late. Previously, the head of the HR department spoke to the boss face-to-face. He had a cerebral hemorrhage and was hospitalized, so he retired at home. "
"The one from the administrative department shook hands with the boss. Tsk … he got into a car accident on the way home."
"And your ex, he sprained his ankle while walking normally and injured his ligaments. He had to undergo surgery and can't go to work for three months."
The more Xu Jiao listened, the paler her face became. "Co- coincidence, right?"
"It's fine if you don't believe me. Anyway, the boss caused the death of his father and wife. I heard that almost everyone in the family is dead."
Xu Jiao's hand trembled, and the mug that had just been filled with water fell to the ground.
The middle-aged man beside her glanced at her. "Xu Jiao, didn't you say yesterday that your new bag broke before you even used it? It seems that you fell while running last night. Did you injure your knee? "
"Sigh, I have to go to the hospital to have a look. What if there is no fracture, but the ligament is broken? Does it hurt when you walk? "
Xu Jiao's lips were about to lose their color!
She did feel that she had been unlucky for the past few days, but she never thought too much about it.
Was it because she had interacted with President Huo?
She, she brought him coffee every day!
"Then, can I still enter his office?"
Xu Jiao was scared.
His knee hurt a lot when he fell.
"Hey, it's your job. What do you think? Also, haven't you noticed that our salaries are especially high? If it were another company, would the number of assistant positions be half of this? "
The middle-aged man clicked his tongue.
"I have no choice but to support my family."
Beside him, Sister Juan also nodded. "My son wants to buy a house and marry a wife in the future."
"My daughter wants to study abroad. Her tuition is so expensive."
"She wants to buy a house, but she lacks a down payment."
Everyone spoke up one after another.
Xu Jiao was dumbfounded. "Then why didn't the interview make it clear?"
"You're still on probation. If you don't want to stay, you can leave. It's not like the HR Department will say that the boss is a jinx during the interview, right? "
Xu Jiao's face was completely pale.
Just as she was at a loss, the phone on her desk rang.
Si Yi's voice quickly sounded. "Bring the printed materials and come in."
Xu Jiao stood up with a crash and sat down again!
Her legs were weak!
Her legs were a bit weak!
Jinx … Jinx in life … She didn't really believe in such superstitions.
But everyone said it as if it was true. Moreover, who would make up a story about someone else's tragedy? The HR Department's boss's tumor was definitely true.
Xu Jiao couldn't even stand up.
Huo Sishen narrowed his eyes and looked at the woman whose face was as pale as a sheet through the glass.
His thin lips were tightly pursed, revealing a trace of cold mockery.
His dark eyes were as cold as ice.
As expected.
Whatever monsters and monsters, they would be scared off in a second after hearing about his deeds.
No matter how much they tried to curry favor with him before, they hated that they couldn't stay ten meters away from him now.
He closed his eyes.
But the girl's voice involuntarily flashed through his mind.
She said she wasn't afraid. She wasn't afraid of anything.
Huo Sishen opened his eyes, and a trace of warmth slowly surfaced in his grave and stern expression.
"Let's go."
Si Yi immediately followed after him with the printed materials.
When they got home, sure enough, Gu Shishi was cooking in a newly bought girly apron.
The pink dots made her entire body look especially soft.
"Tonight's dinner is seafood chowder with lobster baked rice."
Gu Shishi didn't know that she could make such high-class dishes.
Huo Sishen had just reached the door, but she was already eagerly showing off.
Si Yi could clearly feel that the boss's tall and straight figure had become as gentle as water.
"Mhm."
Even the tone of his voice carried a hint of gentleness that wasn't usually there.
Si Yi clicked his tongue in wonder.
"Then go wash your hands ~"
Gu Shishi immediately skipped back to the kitchen happily.
Huo Sishen looked at her back view. Her ponytail swayed behind her graceful back like a butterfly's wings.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
His footsteps became lighter.
How long had it been since someone came to the door to welcome him?
The memories of the past were almost fading from his memory.
Now, there was only her.
He was in an extremely good mood, and even the things he hated were somewhat filtered out.
"Who asked you to come?"
It was rare that his tone wasn't as scary as before.
The thing he hated — Qin Ruhai — had been waiting for him in the living room.
When he heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched.
"Big Brother, do you remember the regular full-body checkup?"
"You stood me up."
Huo Sishen stopped in his tracks.
Recently, his meals were normal, and his sleep … had increased.
He had indeed forgotten.
He asked Si Yi to arrange another meeting.
"I'm not going today."
Huo Sishen pursed his lips. His handsome face had an expression that said, "You can leave now."
Qin Ruhai covered his forehead speechlessly. "What about tomorrow?"
Huo Sishen narrowed his cold eyes. "My schedule has been arranged a month ago."
"What the hell, then you stood me up!?"
Qin Ruhai really wanted to beat him up.
Si Yi, who was standing beside him, was also wearing a headband.
His boss had changed his schedule for the sake of dating.
What kind of schedule was that?
Qin Ruhai sat on the sofa. "Give me a time, or I won't leave! You can ask me to stay for dinner! "
Huo Sishen's body emitted a cold aura.
Doctors had always been the creatures he hated the most.
Qin Ruhai's last sentence was heard by Gu Shishi, who had just come out of the kitchen.
She put down the tray in her hand in the small dining room.
Then, she wiped the handle and walked out.
"Doctor Qin wants to stay for dinner?"
"Just nice, I made some extra. It's enough."
Gu Shishi instantly flashed a well-prepared smile.
In fact, Qin Ruhai had already been there when she came back at night.
Therefore, she made extra preparations.
She was really awesome!
Gu Shishi looked at Huo Sishen eagerly, as if she was asking for praise.
Huo Sishen's cold aura froze for a moment.
Looking at the girl's watery eyes, he couldn't help but be distracted.
She really needed to socialize.
The Qin family behind Qin Ruhai was a family that specialized in medical equipment and medical systems. It was said that their ancestors were imperial physicians.
Although they couldn't compete with the Huo family and the Chen family in terms of wealth, they had a long history and were considered prominent.
Moreover, most rich people needed to seek medical treatment, so most of them were on good terms with the Qin family.
Qin Ruhai, on the other hand, was barely on her social list.
He also had a few sisters who were considered educated and well-mannered.
Huo Sishen pursed his lips.
"Okay."
He turned and went upstairs.
Downstairs, Qin Ruhai waited until the study door closed.
He was a little stunned.
"… What does that mean?"
He looked at Si Yi.
Si Yi acted as a translator. "The boss invited you to stay for dinner."
Qin Ruhai said, "What! Is he out of his mind?! "
Didn't this person hate eating at the same table with others the most?!
They had been brothers for so many years, but ever since the accident that year, they hadn't eaten together.
Let alone ask him to stay for dinner!
"Doctor Qin, wash your hands and come sit in the dining room."
Gu Shishi smiled and waved her hand.
Huo Sishen's friends were her friends.
Also, she could learn about Huo Sishen's condition and investigate the cause of his death two years later.
Qin Ruhai followed her with a dumbfounded expression. He floated all the way and finally sat at the dining table in a daze.
"Miss Gu, are you sure he wants me to stay for dinner?"
"Will he still come down?"
"He's eating upstairs while we eat downstairs?"
"He should be coming down, right?"
Gu Shishi touched her nose.
Ever since they went out for a candlelight dinner that day, they had been having dinner together for the past few days if he didn't come home late.
Qin Ruhai looked at her in disbelief.
In less than ten minutes, he was slapped in the face.
Huo Sishen took a quick shower and changed into a light gray shirt with a much softer color. He sat beside Qin Ruhai.
He blocked his view of Gu Shishi …
Qin Ruhai asked, "… Who are you?"
Huo Sishen didn't even look at him. He picked up his fork and said, "Idiot."
Qin Ruhai said, "F * ck, f * ck, f * ck!"
He looked at Gu Shishi with a strange look in his eyes.
What could change a perverted and crazy person? Love that made him smell sour all over?!
F * ck!
Was this the girl who sent Huo Sishen a red packet on WeChat every day?!
This year's fiancée was really something!
Si Yi looked at Qin Ruhai sympathetically from afar.
He knew that Doctor Qin's pride would be hurt.
Now that Miss Gu was here, his boss's insomnia and mysophobia were greatly alleviated.
What a sin.
Doctor Qin had been doing this for several years, but it was completely useless!
He even said that he was an imperial physician. This was a slap in the face …
[Beep. You have gained Qin Ruhai's fondness for you!]
Gu Shishi was speechless.
No one spoke at the dining table.
Gu Shishi wanted to give the two men some space to talk.
Qin Ruhai, on the other hand, was concerned about Huo Sishen's mysophobia. He adhered to the rule of 'no talking while eating' so that Huo Sishen would not accidentally spit his saliva on the plate and cause him to fly into a rage.
When the meal was almost over, Huo Sishen put down his fork.
Qin Ruhai's eyes lit up. "When are you coming for the checkup?"
Huo Sishen looked at him without hesitation.
Qin Ruhai wasn't discouraged at all. "Bring Miss Gu with you."
Huo Sishen was taken aback.
"Me?"
Gu Shishi was a little surprised and even looked at Huo Sishen worriedly.
Could she come along?
Would Huo Sishen be willing to let her know about his health?
However, what Qin Ruhai said next was beyond her expectations.
"Miss Gu, your previous checkups for school and work were rather routine. You've never had a detailed and precise full-body checkup, right?"
Qin Ruhai's tone became serious.
"You're 22 years old this year. I suggest that you do it as soon as possible. Based on your current physical condition, prevention should be the priority and recuperation should be secondary. You can come up with a plan for everything from food to exercise."
"Miss Gu, are you afraid of injections?"
Qin Ruhai tilted his head and looked at Gu Shishi.
Gu Shishi couldn't help but be stunned.
"I'm not …"
She was about to say that she wasn't afraid when Qin Ruhai winked at her.
A ridiculous thought flashed across her mind.
Could it be that … Huo Sishen was afraid of injections and wanted to avoid the routine checkup?
She pursed her lips and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
She changed the topic.
"I don't like injections. I'm … super scared. I might …"
She glanced at Huo Sishen's tense side profile.
"You might get nervous."
Qin Ruhai smiled and turned to look at the person who refused to go to the clinic.
"Miss Gu, do you really need someone to accompany you?"
"It's your first time going to a foreign place for a checkup. You must be even more scared, right? When the time comes, we'll draw blood and empty your stomach. What if you faint due to low blood sugar? How pitiful. Do you have a friend to accompany you … "
Huo Sishen's breathing clearly stopped.
"This weekend."
His voice was unusually deep and hoarse.
"She's coming with me."
Qin Ruhai immediately sat down.
He smiled smugly.
"Okay, I'll book a VVIP channel for you!"
