My Youth Began With Him-Webnovel
Huo Mian almost dropped to the ground when she heard it.
What were they talking about? Her kept man?
Huo Mian turned to look at Mr. Qin and saw his face had fallenâ¦
âHahahaha! Kept man. Youâre too expensive. I canât afford to keep youâ¦â Huo Mian put one arm around Qin Chu and said in a low voice.
âDr. Huo, please pay up this monthâs fees.â
âI donât have money. But I can pay you with myself and the baby.â Huo Mian touched her belly.
âWithout money, you dare to keep a young man?â
They teased each other.
Finally, Huo Mian walked up and asked, âCan you tell me how to get to Director Jiangâs office?â
âAre you a patient? Our Director Jiang doesnât see patients. Andâ¦â
The young nurse glanced at Huo Mianâs belly.
âHe never sees pregnant women.â
âIâm not a patient. Iâm here to see Director Jiang for business.â
âDo you have an appointment?â
âNo.â
âIâm sorry, but Director Jiang doesnât receive clients without an appointment.â
âIs it so? Tell him that Vice Director Huo of C City is here to visit him.â
âVice Director Huo? Whereâs she?â The young nurses all looked behind her.
âIâm her,â Huo Mian said calmly.
Instantly, the nurses gasped.
âAre you⦠really her?â The young nurse looked unconvinced.
âYeah. If you donât believe me, Iâll show you proofâ¦â
Huo Mian pointed at Mr. Qin standing behind her and said with a straight face, âThis is my kept man.â
The young nurses looked at Huo Mian and then the man behind her in stupefaction.
âUm⦠Please wait a second. Iâll call him immediately.â
With a cringe, the young nurses turned immediately to call their superior.
Huo Mian almost laughed out loud⦠These gossiping girls were hilarious with their misinformed conversation.
â At C Cityâs Jade Dragon Hot Spring Hotel â
It was a banquet celebrating old Mrs. Shenâs 80th birthday. Not wanting to invite lots of guests, the Shen Family had chosen to hold the event in a suburban hotel.
The guests were mostly their relatives and friends; they didnât invite any business partners.
Shen Mingxi issued the invitation to Wei Ying at the last minute; of course, he didnât dare to hope that sheâd come.
After their meeting on the Chinese Valentineâs Day, they got closer but the relationship between them was still subtle.
Wei Ying came with a girl who was also a rich socialite from their circle.
They looked good dressed in red and white evening gowns respectively.
Wei Ying was quite low-profiled. In order to draw little attention to her, she was careful with her make-up and outfit.
âYing, do you really want to get back together with Shen Mingxi?â
âNonsense. Weâre just friends.â
âBut youâre quite attentive to the Shen Family. To attend the old ladyâs birthday banquet, you even canceled your trip and returned the air ticket. Do you think itâs worth it? Will he appreciate your efforts?â
âI donât need their appreciation. Grandma Shen was nice to me, so Iâm doing it for my own conscience.â
They walked in while they talked.
Seeing Wei Ying, Shen Mingxi walked toward her immediately.
Mrs. Shen took her hand with warmth.
âYing, itâs been a while since I saw you last time. You look even prettier than before.â
Wei Ying smiled gently.
At this moment, noises came from the doorâ¦
âMr. Shen, look. Thatâsâ¦â
Shen Mingxiâs friend standing beside him called to get his attention.
He turned and looked toward the door.
His body shook when he saw Huo Yanyan, the woman who was supposed to be locked in the psychiatric center.
Dressed in a black long dress baring her shoulders and wearing exquisite and somewhat eerie make-up, she walked toward Shen Mingxi slowly.
