Chapter 348 Where Did Your Confidence Come From!
Jiang Jingheng called to ask her what she wanted for lunch; he wanted to order food for her.Mu Yan glanced at Mu Chen; his health was getting worse, and he needed to pay more attention to his diet.
She mentioned a few dishes that Mu Chen could eat, then reminded him to eat on time, and hung up the phone.
She didn’t mention Xiao Nan’s issue; Zou Ye’s request was unreasonable from the start.
Secondly, she didn’t want Jiang Jingheng to misunderstand anything.
After lunch, Mu Yan asked a few nurses about Xiao Nan’s situation.
It turned out that two weeks earlier, Xiao Nan had a surgical error that resulted in a patient becoming a vegetable, who still hasn’t awakened.
This wasn’t the only incident; in the past few months, Xiao Nan had been in poor condition, frequently making mistakes, so the hospital decided to temporarily suspend him for reflection.
So was it really because she spoke too harshly last time that it affected Xiao Nan’s condition?
Even though she didn’t think it was her fault, she still felt uneasy.
She hesitated for a moment and called Xiao Nan.
No matter what he said at the time, they’ve known each other for so many years.
No matter his intentions, he has indeed taken care of Mu Chen over the years.
Soon, the phone was answered.
"Hello." His voice was calm.
Mu Yan asked, "Where are you now?"
"At home, what’s up?"
"Um, just..." Mu Yan hesitated, unsure how to speak.
"Let’s talk in person." The person on the other end interrupted her.
Mu Yan hesitated for a moment and agreed, "Okay."
It’s inconvenient to talk over the phone; meeting in person would be better.
Mu Yan told Mu Chen and then left the house.
At Shengyuan Group, Jiang Jingheng had just finished a video conference when Lian Jun walked in.
"Young Master, Young Madam has left the hospital to meet with Xiao Nan."
Jiang Jingheng looked up at him, "Hmm?"
"She already knows about Xiao Nan’s suspension."
Jiang Jingheng lowered his eyes and unemotionally responded, "Hmm."
Mu Yan agreed to meet Xiao Nan at a café; by the time she arrived, Xiao Nan was already there.
He was sitting at the innermost seat by the window, looking outside, wearing a gray coat, his hair grown long enough to cover his eyes.
Mu Yan approached, took off her sunglasses and hat, and said, "Sorry to keep you waiting."
Xiao Nan looked at her and calmly said, "What would you like to drink?"
"A latte," Mu Yan replied.
Xiao Nan waved to the waiter and ordered a latte.
Mu Yan took a sip of coffee, looked at the person across from her, hesitated, and asked, "I heard you were suspended. What happened?"
"Good news gets ignored, but bad news travels fast," Xiao Nan said, with a self-mocking smile.
Mu Yan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is it because of me?"
Xiao Nan looked at her, "If I said yes, would you feel guilty? Would you come back to me?"
Mu Yan was taken aback, then shook her head, "I told you before, I don’t have romantic feelings for you, and secondly, I don’t think I was wrong in that matter."
She was just expressing her thoughts. His inability to accept it was beyond her expectations. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel-fire.ɴet
"Then why do you still care about me?" Xiao Nan said with a self-deprecating smile, "Playing hard to get? Making me your backup?"
Mu Yan didn’t expect him to think that way, frowned slightly, and countered, "Are you more handsome than him? Taller? Better to me? Or still your long-debated question, are you richer than him?"
Xiao Nan kept a composed face and said nothing.
"None of that," Mu Yan said firmly, "You don’t surpass him in any way, so where do you get the confidence to think I’d make you a backup?"
