C10 That's Because I'm Kind
The lights in the hallway fell on Ou Mingjue and Shan Yuan. Zhao Yan had just come out of the ward when she ran into them.
Ou Mingjue leaned against the wall with his hands in his pockets. He looked down and was thinking about something.
Beside him, Shan Yuan was staring at Zhao Yan. His face was calm, and his eyes seemed to have a deeper meaning.
Zhao Yan was shocked. She felt as if something had happened. She walked over and stood in front of Ou Mingjue and Shan Yuan.
"Mr. Ou. "
Ou Mingjue did not say anything, but Shan Yuan said coldly, "Dr. Zhao, you are fired. " His cold voice did not have any fluctuations or warmth.
Shan Yuan's cold and hard tone made Zhao Yan not come back to her senses for a long time.
She only heard Shan Yuan continue, "On account of you following young master for so many years, this time, I will let you go. Pack your things and leave A City. Don't ever come back again. Do you understand? "
Zhao Yan finally came back to her senses. She widened her eyes and looked at Shan Yuan in disbelief. " Butler Shan, I am innocent. "
She turned her gaze to Ou Mingjue again. "Mr. Ou, believe me. I was really threatened by Su Xiaomi. "
"I beg you to forgive me once! Don't chase me away!" Zhao Yan was very clear that if she was chased away by Ou Mingjue, Then she'll never get close to him again.
At that time, she would have no chance to realize her dream.
So no matter what, she had to stay.
Perhaps Zhao Yan's voice was too loud, and it disturbed Su Xiaomi who was in the ward.
Su Xiaomi slowly walked out of the ward. She stuck out her little head and quietly looked at the corridor. Ou Mingjue just happened to raise his head and his eyes met hers.
Ou Mingjue saw Su Xiaomi's timid look and only felt that it was very interesting. His anger seemed to have been extinguished quite a bit.
Su Xiaomi was only curious, but when she saw Zhao Yan standing in front of Shan Yuan and Ou Mingjue with a submissive expression, she could not help but frown.
Were they bullying her?
"Su Xiaomi!" Zhao Yan also noticed Su Xiaomi and she suddenly shouted. Her voice was especially loud in the silent corridor.
Su Xiaomi's body trembled and she staggered out of the door to reveal the back half of her body. She limped towards them, "You guys are in such a good mood and you guys are having a meeting here?"
She giggled, as if she had forgotten about the displeasure just now and the matter of Ou Mingjue taking away her necklace.
However, even though Su Xiaomi was smiling, Ou Mingjue could still feel the slight displeasure in her eyes when she looked at him.
"Su Xiaomi, tell Mr. Ou that you ran away on your own, right? You threatened me to help you escape, right?" Zhao Yan rarely got excited and she gave Su Xiaomi a scare.
Su Xiaomi was very surprised. After all, in her memory, Zhao Yan had always been a woman who could keep her cool.
"Dr. Zhao. " Su Xiaomi originally wanted to explain that it was Zhao Yan who said back then that she hoped that she could leave Ou Mingjue. That was why she helped her escape.
Why did it become her threatening her now?
"Mr. Ou, I really have no choice. I beg you to give me another chance!"
Before Su Xiaomi could finish speaking, she saw Zhao Yan had already pounced in front of Ou Mingjue. She pulled on his sleeve. Her panicked look looked very pathetic.
But even so, Su Xiaomi did not have the slightest bit of disdain towards her in her heart. Because she knew that the reason Zhao Yan became like this was all because she loved Ou Mingjue.
She secretly sighed in her heart and sized up Ou Mingjue.
Ou Mingjue looked at Zhao Yan with impatience and coldness in his eyes. Su Xiaomi was sure that he was not interested in her at all.
Ou Mingjue was unmoved by Zhao Yan's pleas and cries. He looked really ruthless.
Su Xiaomi was secretly glad that the person she liked was not Ou Mingjue. At least Shen Jibei would never be so heartless and cold to her.
"Mr. Ou, Dr. Zhao is right. I was the one who threatened her. " Su Xiaomi frowned. Zhao Yan's cries were all around her ears. She could not continue listening.
When Zhao Yan heard Su Xiaomi speak up for her, not only did she not feel grateful, she even fiercely said, "It is all your fault!"
Su Xiaomi was stunned by Zhao Yan's shout.
Su Xiaomi was stunned on the spot and only recovered after a long time.
Su Xiaomi frowned and bit her lips as she looked at Zhao Yan. Zhao Yan did not care about Su Xiaomi's gaze as she hoped that he would let her stay.
However, Ou Mingjue's gaze fell on Su Xiaomi. He saw her roll up her sleeves and limped towards Zhao Yan.
Su Xiaomi raised her hand and heavily patted Zhao Yan's shoulder, "Zhao Yan, I can tolerate you once or twice because I am kind. "
Even if she was kind, she could not let herself be bullied!
Su Xiaomi originally wanted to help Zhao Yan plead on account that Zhao Yan had helped her before but she did not think that she would bully her now!
"What nonsense are you talking about? This is your fault!" Zhao Yan did not show any signs of weakness and angrily glared. If Su Xiaomi was not the one involved, she might really have been deceived by her.
Su Xiaomi's last bit of pity disappeared in an instant. She sneered and her cold eyes fell on Zhao Yan's beautiful face.
Zhao Yan was stunned and did not say anything for a moment.
When Zhao Yan reacted and wanted to say something, Su Xiaomi had already taken the initiative and changed the topic. She took the initiative to talk to Ou Mingjue, "Can I go back on my word?"
After Su Xiaomi said that, she smiled brightly. And Ou Mingjue liked her smile the most. His cold gaze was a little gentler because of her.
"Of course. " His answer was very straightforward. Su Xiaomi instantly smiled brightly and her expression was very relaxed. "I did not threaten Dr. Zhao. She took the initiative to let me go. "
She only wanted Zhao Yan to learn a lesson. She was not someone who would be bullied.
"You are talking nonsense. You clearly admitted it and now you are going back on your word. " Zhao Yan fiercely retorted as if she had gone mad. Her gaze was very fierce.
Unfortunately, the more Zhao Yan acted this way, the more Su Xiaomi would not let her go.
Zhao Yan saw that Su Xiaomi did not have the intention to change her words and she did not see her rebuttal, so she simply turned around to plead with Ou Mingjue. She thought that he would not believe Su Xiaomi.
But that was only her thoughts.
"Mr. Ou, I have been working with you for many years. You understand my character. " Zhao Yan tightly grabbed Ou Mingjue's sleeve.
Zhao Yan did not have any confidence in her heart.
When Su Xiaomi saw this, she started to feel afraid in her heart. After all, she had only known Ou Mingjue for a few days.
Su Xiaomi subconsciously stepped back, but she was grabbed by Ou Mingjue's eyes. His handsome eyebrows raised, and his expression was indifferent. "Don't think about running away. You just stay here. "
What was going on?
Su Xiaomi was stunned on the spot and she did not dare to resist. She nodded her head in a daze. She quietly looked at Zhao Yan's embarrassing appearance and her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Ou Mingjue was sure that Su Xiaomi did not leave before he recovered his senses and glanced at the pitiful Zhao Yan. "And then? What do you want to express?"
"Me. " Zhao Yan did not expect Ou Mingjue to ask such a question. She panicked and loosened her grip on his sleeve.
Of course she wanted to teach Su Xiaomi a lesson!
Zhao Yan did not speak and Ou Mingjue also did not plan to wait for her. His deep eyes were as indifferent as before and reflected Zhao Yan's panic-stricken and beautiful face. Unlike the softness when he looked at Su Xiaomi, his eyes at this time were filled with hostility.
Ou Mingjue hated those who betrayed him the most.
"From today onwards, I do not want to see you. You know my character. " His few words were like a death sentence for Zhao Yan. When he spoke, there was not a trace of emotion in his eyes.
Zhao Yan's legs went soft and she took two steps back. She staggered and sat on the cold floor. "Mr. Ou. "
"She knows she was wrong. You don't have to be so harsh. " Su Xiaomi's voice quickly interrupted Zhao Yan's words. Zhao Yan looked at her and she was very calm.
Ou Mingjue felt very helpless towards Su Xiaomi's actions, "Su Xiaomi, what exactly do you want?"
Ou Mingjue's seemingly cold words revealed a trace of pampering towards her.
"I don't want to do anything. I just feel that you should teach her a lesson. You don't need to fire her. " Su Xiaomi did not understand the meaning in Ou Mingjue's words. She did not wait for him to express his stance and limped in front of Zhao Yan. She looked down at her.
Her eyes were not filled with pity.
Zhao Yan placed her hand on the ground and raised her head to glare at Su Xiaomi. She did not dare to speak again. Her heavy gaze met her dark pupils and she subconsciously looked away.
The next second Su Xiaomi leaned over her face and said, "I did this because I am kind. In the future I will not ask for your help but I beg you not to spread rumors. "
Even though Su Xiaomi did not say anything, Zhao Yan had already realized that her fate at this moment was decided by Su Xiaomi.
When Su Xiaomi stood up and turned her head, the hostility in Ou Mingjue's eyes had also dissipated and his tone was still cold, "You should leave quickly. Don't lose face here. "
Ou Mingjue was talking to Zhao Yan, but Su Xiaomi wanted to nod her head.
She also wanted to leave.
No matter what, even if Zhao Yan was not fired, Ou Mingjue would not trust her unconditionally. She knew this logic and did not dare to be rash anymore. She supported herself against the wall and stood up. She lowered her head and her long hair scattered. "Mr. Ou, I am leaving. "
After Zhao Yan said this, she left in a hurry. She did not even have the courage to look back.
The corridor after Zhao Yan left was so quiet that everyone could hear their breathing. Su Xiaomi still had her back to Ou Mingjue and Shan Yuan. She put her hands on the leg of the injured leg and pretended to caress it.
Even if Su Xiaomi did not turn her head, she could still feel the gaze from behind her.
What to do? She seemed to be too arrogant just now.
Su Xiaomi was still thinking about what she should do when her arm was suddenly grabbed by Ou Mingjue. She subconsciously turned her head and saw him standing less than ten centimeters behind her. He forcefully pulled her hand that was hanging on her thigh. "Does your hand hurt?"
Actually, her hand did not hurt.
"Yes. " Su Xiaomi nodded guiltily. She was so scared that her back broke out in cold sweat. She did not have the confidence to think that A cold-blooded and selfish person like him would easily let her go.
He would not be teaching her a lesson, right?
Su Xiaomi turned around. She lowered her head, frowned, and gritted her teeth. She quietly waited for Ou Mingjue to teach her a lesson. She did not expect that he only calmly instructed Shan Yuan, "Send her back to the ward. I will go and buy supper. This supper is already cold. "
After Ou Mingjue finished speaking, Su Xiaomi heard a crisp sound. It should be Ou Mingjue throwing the supper he just bought into the trash can.
Su Xiaomi was stunned and did not look back until Ou Mingjue's steady footsteps gradually faded away.
