Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart

Chapter 617 - The Real Culprit

CHAPTER 617

"Oh, sir…"

"Well, that is if it is okay by you. Of course, I would pay you well for your troubles."

He did not want to tell him the truth. It wasn't about her being in the hospital for a minor injury. If it was, then he wouldn't request the doctor come to treat her.

It was a matter of her safety. Being in the hospital was too risky but if she was home and in his own private residence then he could ensure proper guidance of her and away from trouble.

As Ye Sheng had warned him, Ye Cheng would not let the matter sit down. So he needed to be prepared since his daughter threw the first punch.

"No, not at all sir." He smiled at Chairman Zhang before folding his hands in front of him and bowing his head to him.

He could guess as well why the chairman was refusing her staying in the hospital. He knew the accident was no accident, that and how Bai Qing Mei was so mad when she woke up.

He was no fool. So he decided to just play along. Besides, he did not want the nurses in the hospital to be scared because of her.

She was a wealthy spoilt brat but having the backing of her grandfather, no one wanted to lose their job.

"This is very much okay. Thank you, sir. I would do as you wish."

"Hahaha, besides, see it as me taking Qing Mei's trouble from your hands., what do you think?"

"Hahaha not at all. Happy to serve."

"Good." His laughter died all of a sudden." Okay, you may go now."

Bowing his head before the Chairman, he took his leave without a second thought.

Chairman Zhang did not say anything and waited for two minutes after the door was locked to ensure the doctor had gone before spoke up.

"Until when are you going to pretend t be asleep? I know you are awake."

Just like that, her eyes flung open and she looked his way as a small smile spread on her lips. "It took you long enough to get here and also to get rid of that doctor. He had the nerve to inject me."

"Well, it was for your good. You know better than to throw a tantrum after all you did right?"

"Pff. I was angry. If you were the one…"

"I understand you, darling. I was mad too."

"Good, we are on the same page." Judging from her tone, Chairman Zhang knew his granddaughter was still angry but he did not want to dwell on her anger too much.

Besides if she knew about it all and who did run into her, she might have a change of heart and be calm on her own.

Sitting up, she eyed her grandfather, trying to figure out what was in the old man's mind but no matter how much she looked, she just could not get anything out.

Feeling frustrated, she resigned herself to ask. "What is wrong? Did you really not catch the culprit? Or you want to be like the orders and tell me it was an accident to protect me, because if that is what you want to do, then please change. It won't work."

"Qing Mei…" She shook her head, not ready to listen to him.

Most times when this happened, he usually was like that and he would say it was because he was protecting her that was why she was asking the doctor and nurse and hoping shouting would get them to fear her and spill.

Unfortunately, even her yelling did not help her and the doctor injected her instead. At that point, she felt it was her grandfather that had warned them prior.

So now that he was around, she did not plan on taking any shit from no one and she was going to get to the bottom of the matter.

"Grandfather, tell me. I am not a child anymore. I can handle the truth pretty much just the same way anyone can."

"I know and I never said I was going to hide anything from you. You were just the one assuming things," he corrected.

Her eyes opened wide when she understood that of a truth she did not give him time to talk. "Umm, ahem!" she cleared her throat then looked at him slowly. "Do you mind telling me?"

"Are you calm now?"

"I am grandfather, please spill already."

"Fine. You honestly do not want to know who it is but since you are adamant I would do you the honours. It was Hu Donghai."

She blinked. His words had still not sunk into her number six.

"What did you say?"

She knew she heard him but the name… perhaps it was just her mind, she thought.

"Umm, grandfather, you aid what?"

"I said, it was Hu Donghai!"

0_0

Her lips parted, her eyes were still wide and unblinking. This really came as a shock to her no doubt.

"Qing Mei, I want you to understand that this time things went too far. You…"

"No, no, no, no."

She shook her head severally but the answer remained the same. "You mean to say grandfather that the person who…" she just could not mention it further.

She swallowed hard and took in a deep breath. Her hands moved of their own accord and combed through her hair just to fix her brain and erase the information she just heard but no matter how hard she tried, it didn't work.

Finally, she found it in her person to ask. "Are you sure?"

"Do I look like I would lie to you?"

"No. It is just…"

"It is him. It is Hu Donghai, my very righthand man."

"But how? Hu Donghai would never betray you?"

"He didn't. He was captured and tortured till he spoke the truth and then he was tied down to the car that was controlled to run into you."

As he spoke she gripped the sheets hard and would not let go as her hands tightened into a full fist. She was mad.

"Who did it? Was it Li Jing who ordered it, grandfather? Tell me.. I feel like tearing her apart."
