Chapter 39 - Dr. Song is furious

Fu Yu knitted his eyebrows. “Why did it turn out to be her? According to what I’ve gathered, you should be the most obvious choice for the role among the others in the TV station based on your age, appearance and experience.”

Changqing awkwardly hung her head during Fu Yu’s comment.

Fu Yu was astute and perceptive after all. When he saw her reaction, he instantly figured out the truth behind the scenes.

Right then, came two people from outside the ware. It was Song Chuyi and a female intern working in the hospital. The intern was rolling in a piece of medical apparatus with a trolley into the ward with her.

The moment they entered the ward, Song Chuyi darted a short glance at Changqing and Fu Yu. Meanwhile, the first instant Changqing saw Song Chuyi, her entire body stiffened as if she was confronted by a formidable enemy when she thought of the warning he gave her last night.

Fu Yu was unhappy he was interrupted, and he asked grudgingly, “Dr. Song, is there a problem?”

“I’m here to examine the patient,” Song Chuyi replied. He cued the female intern with his eyes, and following that, the intern began to close the hospital curtain.

On the other side of the curtain, Fu Yu’s mobile phone rang abruptly. Changqing could hear that there seemed to be an urgent issue cropping up back at Fu Yu’s company from the details of his conversation, so she said to Fu Yu. “You can go deal with the problem. I’ll keep watch on Auntie Shen.”

“In that case, I’ll leave her here with you. I’ll be back around seven o’clock tonight,” Fu Yu said then he continued his sentence with his eyebrows knitted. “I’ll talk to your station head sometime later about the matter regarding the TV series.”

Changqing panicked. “You don’t have to do that, I…”

“You’re the reason why I chose to work with this particular TV station in the first place. From the start, I assumed you’d be selected as the supporting actress even without me notifying the station head, but alas, it looks like I thought too highly of him.” Fu Yu snorted coldly, and he hurriedly left without waiting for her to respond.

Changqing lost her calm and composure entirely after Fu Yu left the ward. As soon as she turned around, she was met with Song Chuyi’s gaze as he came out from behind the hospital curtain with his eyes as cold as snow.

Her body shivered from the coldness reflected in Song Chuyi’s eyes as he stared at her She thought he must’ve misunderstood her, and that her fate was bound to be doomed.

“Dr. Song, the examination is over. There’s no issue with the patient’s heart rate and blood pressure.” The voice of the intern broke the silence in the ward.

“Okay, let’s leave,” Song Chuyi replied to the intern.

A corner of his ethereal white overcoat was lifted up along with the departure of Song Chuyi from the ward, and following behind him, the intern pushed the medical apparatus forward with small strides.

Changqing breathed a sigh of relief when Song Chuyi left the ward, but who knew that after just a few minutes, her mobile phone would receive a message from Song Chuyi. “Come to my office, fifth floor. Be prepared to face the consequences if you choose not to come.”

It was a downright and explicit threat.

Changqing sent a message back warily. “I’m uneasy about leaving Auntie Shen alone here in the ward.”

Song Chuyi: “Do you want me to come over and drag you away from there?”

Changqing’s heart trembled when she thought of that frozen cold face of his, and ultimately, she decided to bite the bullet and went up to his office.

His name was written and labeled on the office door which Changqing found pretty easily, and subsequently, she went into the office after she pushed open the door.

Song Chuyi was quietly typing away on his keyboard when she came in, and when he noticed her, his eyes swept across her momentarily before he instructed: “Close the door.”

Changqing absolutely had no plans of obeying his orders, but because her hands moved quicker than her brain, by the time she realized it, she had already closed the door. She internally hated herself for being so useless, but she stepped forward and began to explain herself softly. “Didn’t I mention to you yesterday that I’ve known Fu Yu since childhood, and he and my sister were classmates too? He merely treats me as a sister.”

“He invested in shooting a TV series for your sake just because you’re a mere sister to him?” Song Chuyi sneered, his face was filled with hostility. “What kind of sister are you? A godsister?”

His words were filled with scornful sarcasm, and Changqing was annoyed by his tone. “In any case, I didn’t lie to you.”

“Lying to others is what you women are best at,” Song Chuyi said as he stood up. Looking down at her from a condescending height, and with his body towering over her, he sneered, “What a pity though. After all your painstaking effort, you were only given a role of a mere supporting actress.”
