She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

Chapter 931

Unexpectedly, the ward was quiet.

There was no sound of anyone talking, no other movement, and no one responded to my knock on the door.

Wu Ling and I looked at each other and whispered, "Is Mr. X resting already?"

It was already evening, and Mr. X was a patient, so he might have gone to bed early.

If someone is resting, we should not disturb them.

But Wu Ling frowned: "He is with the assistant. Even if he is resting, the assistant should be there... Wait a minute, I will go to the nurse station to ask."

"Okay." I took the bag from Wu Ling's hand and continued to wait at the door silently.

Wu Ling came back soon: "They are discharged from the hospital, Xuxu, they are actually discharged from the hospital."

Discharged?

I was stunned and blurted out: "When was he discharged from the hospital?"

Wu Ling got the news in the afternoon, and we rushed here non-stop from the moment we received the news. I was just worried that the longer the time went, the greater the variables would become.

But it only took an hour from the time we learned the news to the time we rushed over.

Mr. X was actually discharged from the hospital?

"I asked the nurse, and she said he was just discharged from the hospital." Wu Ling pouted and looked depressed.

At this moment, a young nurse rushed over to explain: "The patient was discharged 20 minutes ago. They suddenly requested to be discharged, saying that they had something urgent to deal with, so they had to be discharged. Our Doctor Wang had no choice but to agree and told the patient to rest at home."

Twenty minutes ago, such a short time.

Did something serious happen that required him to be discharged from the hospital, or did Mr. X know that we were coming and didn't want to see us, so he was discharged in a hurry?

But these things could not be learned by asking the nurse. After all, no matter what the reason for discharge, Mr. X would not tell an outsider the reason.

I just asked the nurse softly: "Can we go to the ward and take a look?"

In fact, I didn’t believe the nurse’s words enough. I had to see with my own eyes that there was no one in the ward.

The young nurse readily agreed: "Sure."

She opened the door of the ward and found that it was empty.

Even the bed was made.

The room was extremely clean. If it weren't for the faint smell of disinfectant and ointment in the room, I would even suspect that no one had ever lived in the room before.

I walked slowly around the room, and the little hope in my heart was completely gone.

Mr. X was really discharged from the hospital, but I never got to see him after all.

Did he leave the hospital urgently just to avoid me?

I was still guessing when Wu Ling suddenly exclaimed, and I turned around to see that she was holding an exquisite golden cufflink in her hand, her brows were furrowed, and her eyes were full of suspicion.

"What's wrong, sister?" I was confused.

"Why does this cufflink look so much like the one I gave to that bastard?" Wu Ling held the cufflink and looked at it, muttering to himself.

Dog thing? Zeng Zhi?

My heart skipped a beat, and a bold guess suddenly popped up in my mind: Could it be that...

"Damn it, this bastard didn't even answer the phone, he must be guilty!" Wu Ling held the phone, his emotions getting even more agitated, "Xuxu, let's go find this bastard!"

Without saying anything, I followed Wu Ling out of the ward with my things in my arms. I took a deep breath and finally asked the question: "Sister, do you suspect that Zeng Zhi is Mr. X's assistant?"

Yes, I had such suspicions as well.

Because I was in the ward just now, and I also noticed something wrong. The smell in the ward was a mixture of disinfectant, ointment, but also a faint fragrance.

The cool woody scent is mixed with a hint of sharp plum fragrance, which is the scent Zhou Hanzhi often uses.

His habits have not changed, but I know him too well, so even if it's just a slight change, I can still recognize it.

In addition to the cufflink that Wu Ling picked up, she herself said that this cufflink was very similar to the one she gave to Zeng Zhi.

More importantly, Zeng Zhi's refusal to answer Wu Ling's call at this moment really showed his guilty conscience, as if he was deliberately hiding something.

I remembered a lot again.

Mr. X has always refused to show up, and even refused to let out his voice. He always speaks through a voice changer. Last time when he heard that I was getting engaged to Ono, he reacted so strangely. He said he would come to my engagement party, but he didn't show up at the party. He obviously takes such good care of me, but he refuses to see me.

Even, emergency discharge avoided me.

There are more and more doubts, and the mystery is getting bigger and bigger.

Wu Ling did not answer my question directly. She just whispered, "Half an hour ago, Zeng Zhi called me and said that he might not be home until late tonight and asked me to go to bed first. I said that I might be late tonight too and asked him not to worry about it. Then he asked me what I was going to do..."

She didn't say anything else, but I understood.

At that time, she told Zeng Zhi about our itinerary, and Zeng Zhi knew that we were going to meet Mr. X today.

As a result, Mr. X was discharged from the hospital in an emergency 20 minutes ago.

Are there such coincidences in the world? Maybe there are, but I don't think this is a coincidence.

Mr. X is Zhou Hanzhi, and Zeng Zhi is the assistant beside him!

But why is Zhou Hanzhi in the orthopedic department? Did he hurt his bones last time when he rushed to save me?

If that's the case, Wu Ling should know the inside story. I wanted to ask Wu Ling what was going on, but Wu Ling called Zeng Zhi at this time: "You bastard, where are you? Why don't you answer the phone?"

I was very close to Wu Ling, so I could hear Zeng Zhi's voice on the other end of the phone: "I'm at the First People's Hospital. By the way, baby, you are meeting your investor now, right? Which hospital is he in?"

"Stop pretending in front of me! Why are you pretending to be confused in front of me? Get out of here where you are. I want to see you and ask you something!" Wu Ling was furious and jumped out like a string of cannonballs.

Zeng Zhi is still in the hospital?

Wasn't Mr. X discharged from the hospital twenty minutes ago?

I am very confused.

But Wu Ling had already hung up the phone, and ten minutes later, we met Zeng Zhi in the underground parking lot.

When he saw me, Zeng Zhi's eyes were a little evasive, but he still called me politely, "Manager Meng."

I was actually quite embarrassed. The last time Zhou Hanzhi rescued me from Zhao Feihan, I was drugged and unconscious. I held Zhou Hanzhi tightly and refused to let go. Zeng Zhi must have seen all these scenes.

But I still thanked him quietly after feeling embarrassed: "Thank you Assistant Zeng for your help."

"It's okay, it's okay." Zeng Zhi waved his hands quickly, paused, and then quickly said, "By the way, you can rest assured about Zhao Feihan's matter. He has agreed to terminate the contract."

As he spoke, he handed me a document: "He has signed the termination agreement."
