Chapter 95 Taking Her
Chapter 95 Taking Her
Zhang Liling was wondering how it was possible to go to a hospital without seeing other people. Unless it was still under construction.
Actually, Chuanli was not lying. He had a private elevator that takes Mr. Fang from the underground parking lot and straight to his office, but she didn't know this.
Anytime Zhang Liling thinks, hears and sees anything relating to hospitals, she would become nervous.
The frequent dragging to the hospital and taking of her blood by her stepmother, has scarred her mind. She feels like going there, will get her abused.
"Dr. Li, I don't know how possible it is not to see anyone when I go into the hospital. Also, the smell of drugs and disinfectants..." Zhang Liling said with a frown which described her worry.
"Don't worry, you will see. It's a promise to make you feel as comfortable as possible. If I do anything wrong, you can report me to Mr. Fang, and I will be punished."
Chaunli reassured her with a smile.
"Does Mr. Fang know about this?" Zhang Liling asked curiously. For him to mention about being punished by him, Mr. Fang must have known about this.
"Yes. You don't know how much I suffered before he agreed to this, but then, he left me to convince you by myself." Chuanli said while standing and picking up his phone from the table.
Instinctively, Zhang Liling stood to her feet while staring at him before following him out of the restaurant building.
She only came back to her senses after getting into his car. She wouldn't have realized this if he didn't stop talking to her, because he made sure to keep her engaged in a conversation while leading her there.
'Did I really follow him?' Zhang Liling thought with a frown as she looked around.
Chuanli noticed the doubts in her gaze and smiled to himself. He just used psychology on her.
This was very easy to accomplish since she kind of trusted him as Mr. Fang's friend and doctor. Also, he engaged her in a conversation which made things more easier.
Chuanli pulled Zhang Liling out from her thoughts by revolving his car's engine and driving off.
"Dr. Li, can I ask some private questions regarding Mr. Fang?" Zhang Liling asked.
She felt she could get to know more about Mr. Fang through him, since he looked more easy-going than Bolin.
With eyes on the road and a smirk at the corner of his lips, he asked, "Why do you want to know about Mr. Fang's private life, are you interested in him?"
Zhang Liling was shocked by his direct question. How could he ask her that kind of question so casually. But she needed to reply.
"Dr. Li, how can you put it like that? You are asking the kind of question that taints the clean mind." She said with a feigned annoyance.
Chuanli shrugged. "Well, if you are not interested in Mr. Fang, then I'm sorry that I can not help you with any information regarding his privacy."
It was as simple as that.
This made Zhang Liling truly annoyed. He wasn't going to tell her anything if she didn't give him the reply he wanted.
She couldn't believe that she would have to admit her feelings for Mr. Fang to someone else within a few days.
Chuanli was very patient with her. He didn't for one minute try to give in to her.
From the stories he had heard of her, from the time she fainted and was carried by Mr. Fang, to the time she came to live with him, he knew there was more to her.
And that could only mean that she was interested in Mr. Fang, but he wanted her to admit it herself.
After a moment of silence, Zhang Liling's voice was heard. "I am highly interested in Mr. Fang, and I want to be close to him."
"Bravo!" Chuanli said and slapped his right palm on his steering wheel which almost frightened Zhang Liling if not for the smile on his face.
Glancing at her, he said, "Miss Zhang, I think we can be friends. I will help you to stay around Bingwen, but winning him over will be your job."
Zhang Liling felt her heart swim in joy when she heard that. She quickly grabbed his shirt without thinking, and then released it when she realized the result of the adrenaline rush to her brain.
"Dr. Li, will you really help me get close to Mr. Fang?"
Chuanli chuckled heartily. "Why not? I have been helping you for a while now, so why would I stop now?"
"You have been helping me?" Zhang Liling asked in a slight confusion and with surprise in her tone.
Has he been helping her, but how?
Chuanli spared her a glance to say, "Miss Zhang, think about all of those times you would have been thrown out of the villa, I stopped Mr. Fang from doing that."
Zhang Liling borrowed a few minutes to dwell on his words. Did he really save her?
Then she thought back to those moments her actions would have cost her job and began to think how he was related to stopping it.
After thinking for a short while, she could remember 2 solid times he appeared in the villa when she caused a big problem.
Could those be the times he saved me?
"But why would you help me?"
"Because you are a brave one. No woman has ever dared to be so audacious as moving into his house through the means you used. You better thank me properly for making him accept you to be his housekeeper, and for still letting you stay."
Chuanli came to a red light at an intersection and stopped. Now he can fully pay attention to her facial expressions.
"Thank you, Dr. Li." Zhang Liling said with a slight bow, as different thoughts were going through her head.
Chuanli was not satisfied with a mouth full of thanks. He shook his finger in front of her and said, "That is not enough. In future, I may need your help, and then you can repay it. For the time being, try to stay out of trouble."
He had to advice her now because if she continued to annoy Mr. Fang, then he would surely throw her out of his house and not listen to any pleas.
Zhang Liling nodded in understanding.
The rest of their journey to his private hospital, was met with silence as they both focused on different thoughts.
As soon as Chuanli parked in the underground parking lot, he opened a compartment inside his car and brought out 2 nose masks.
