Chapter 34
He had been absent from work for 2 days, as soon as he arrived at the door of the medical room, Fade heard Xenia's complaints from inside. "Doctor Chen, how can he be like this, taking leave after working for only a few days. I'm so busy on my own."
"Xenia, I haven't seen you for two days. I didn't expect you to miss me so much." Fade walked into the medical room with a smile.
Xenia who was dressed in a nurse's uniform was sorting out some medicine. When she heard his voice, she turned around and looked surprised. She said, "Doctor Chen, you are here."
Then she said shyly, "I don't miss you."
"If you didn't miss me, I'll just leave then." Fade turned around and said.
Xenia rushed out and grabbed Fade, saying, "Don't go."
"Well, are you admitting that you miss me?" Fade rubbed Xenia's head and walked into the medical room with a smile. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"No, I'm just too busy," Xenia muttered, but her face was blushing red. After teasing with the nurse for a while, Fade put on a white coat and enquired about what had happened in the past two days. Then he came to the pharmaceutical room and began to work on the formula for some medicine. After all, his wife had given him the task of making 10 thousand revitalizing boosters and this was nowhere close to being completed.
It was finally lunchtime after a busy morning. Fei Enterprise had its own canteen and the meals were very good. The staff could eat for free using their employee tags.
Fade didn't hold back. He took two plates and filled one with rice and another one with braised pork, chicken drumsticks, meat, etc. With everyone else watching him as if he was an oddity, he sat down
beside Xenia.
When he was about to eat, Fade picked up the scent of Lily. A figure stood in front of him, he looked up. It was indeed Lily Wei.
"Manager Wei, do you want to have lunch together?" Fade invited Lily.
Lily waved her hand and said in a serious tone, "That is not necessary, Dr. Chen, Ms. Lin wants to see you and asks for you to have lunch in the lobby."
The so-called lobby was a mezzanine room above the canteen. The environment is elegant and it is not as crowded. It is the place where the company's executives have their meals.
"Ms... Ms. Lin is looking for me?" Fade was really surprised. He thought to himself, "Could it be that my greeting last night worked and my wife is ready to make out with me?"
"Doctor Chen!" Looking at Fade who was glazing over, Lily gently frowned and shouted.
Fade came to his senses, he hurriedly picked up two big plates, got up, and walked to the lobby.
Seeing this, Lily's eyes widened. "You are bringing these? There's food in the private lobby."
"The food has already been served. It'll be a waste if it's not eaten."
Lily didn't know what to say. She could only lead the way silently, but she was even more confused. Who on earth is this seemingly carefree Dr. Chen, who had been summoned by Ms. Lin personally several times?
Fade looked at Lily's frowning face and could not help but approach her. He smiled and said, "Lily, you have a pretty face, why do you constantly keep a straight face, it'll be great if you smile! By the
way, your perfume smell is just right today. It's neither too strong nor too faint, its fragrance is enticing."
Listening to Fade's words, Lily's heartbeat faster somehow and her cheeks blushed a little. They arrived in the lobby. Lily kept her cold and said, "Ms. Lin is upstairs. Go up yourself."
Fade nodded and stepped upstairs. Halfway there, he heard an unwelcoming shout, "What are you doing here?"
Looking up, it was his arch-nemesis, Donald. His face, which had been beaten black and blue by Fade, had almost recovered, but some traces could still be seen. Donald who was wearing a suit stared at Fade in a condescending manner, and there was immense hatred in his eyes.
Fade, however, seemed unperturbed and said, "Of course I am here for lunch. Secretary Qin, aren't you too? Oh, you have such a smelly mouth. You're having sh*t for lunch, aren't you?"
"You..." Donald was so angry that he almost hit Fade. But when he thought of the previous occasion when he was beaten badly by Fade, he felt a pain on his face.
Shaking off his raised hand, Donald snorted and boasted disdainfully, "You are vulgar and rude. Let me tell you, this is the place where the top managers of the company have their meals, not a place where low-level employees like you can be at. Get out of here now!"
"Oh, so, I can't have my lunch up there?" Fade looked at Donald.
Donald's face was full of arrogance. "Of course not. This is not the place where you can come. You should know your own place. Don't come to a place where you don't fit in. It's embarrassing."
Fade was not angry. On the contrary, he seemed to agree with him. He turned around and was about to go downstairs. At the same time, he shouted towards the lobby, "Ms. Lin, Secretary Qin
said that I don't deserve to come to the lobby, so I have to return downstairs. If you are looking for me, please come down to the common area."
Hearing this, Donald was stunned, but then he folded his arms in front of his chest and sneered, "Fade, these deceptive tricks are boring. Ms. Lin would not discuss anything with someone like you. Don't make me laugh."
Fade did not refute. He picked up the plate and was about to go downstairs.
At this moment, a cold female voice resounded from the mezzanine upstairs. "Secretary Qin, let Dr. Chen in. I have something to talk to him about."
"Ah..." Donald was stunned. He turned his head to look upstairs in disbelief at what Quin Lin had just said.
Fade, however, turned around with a smile and said, "A good dog doesn't block the way! Ms. Lin has asked me to go up. Didn't you hearthat?"
Donald was so angry that his cheeks were distorted, but he had to lean aside to give way to Fade.
Fade carried his two plates of food and whistled his way past Donald. As soon as he reached Donald, Fade suddenly slipped and staggered. The two plates of food flew out of his hands and landed on Donald's head accurately.
The juice and food slipped down Donald's smooth hair little by little and then flowed along his cheeks and neck onto his body.
"Oh, Secretary Qin, I'm sorry. My hand slipped. I'm really sorry. Ms. Lin is looking for me, so I can't help you out." Fade smiled and didn't look like he was apologetic at all.
Donald was so angry. He shook his hand and strode downstairs.
As a result, Fade said, "Oh, Secretary Qin, there's a big drumstick on your head. Don't dump it. That's a waste of food!"
"You..." Donald instinctively reached out his hand to touch the top of his head. As a result, his foot slipped on the stairs full of juice, and he fell on the stairs.
The well- dressed secretary had become a mess. The gravy from the food mixed with blood dyed Donald's face into a collage of colors. Other employees watched him as they held their laughter, Donald rushed into the bathroom in a hurry.
"Secretary Qin, eat slowly in the bathroom. No one will steal your food!"
Then, the crowd in the canteen burst into laughter.
