Chapter 1222: Chapter 1222: Striking Again
Click, the phone call ended.
Everyone looked at Yu Shaohua.
They still couldn’t guess what was going on, but it seemed to be related to the competition team this time! Bai Xiao and the others all knew, she was Director Yu’s niece.
Silent.
Yu Shaohua stood up and slammed the table hard.
"Comrades, there’s an unexpected pleasure this time. We were just discussing what resources besides generous treatment can attract exceptional talent, and we’ve always focused on those small European countries.
Worried they might not come.
But I have good news to share with everyone.
This time, in the first round of our semi-final entrance test, we have produced a first place, and it was a perfect score first place, enough to show that our medical progress is very fast, and it also shows that we have a very good training foundation.
It’s a cradle for nurturing talent."
The crowd exploded.
"What? First place?"
"And with a perfect score!"
"Director, if that’s the case, we should seize the opportunity to package the first place, promote it on major media platforms, and set up an exhibition of our talent cultivation success. It will also serve as an attraction to those doctors at the exchange conference."
"Yes! And, taking advantage of this opportunity, the reward can’t be less, we must show that China has never been stingy with talent."
"Yes! A house! A car! A salary! And bonuses, none of these should be lacking."
"And we should arrange television interviews, newspapers, and TV should be fully utilized! Let everyone realize that China now has a mainstay in medicine."
Yu Shaohua was also so excited that she couldn’t sit still, as if there were pins on the chair.
The meeting room was already boiling.
Meanwhile, in the Capital City and even Modu, all major hospitals received this latest news.
All hospital meeting rooms were conducting meetings.
What exactly was being discussed, no one knew.
The only thing known was that media reporters were swarming outside the hotel entrance, unable to get in.
The hotel’s additional security was no joke.
They had received orders from above to strengthen hotel security, especially ensuring that hotel guests would not be disturbed.
Bai Xiao and the others were unaware of all this.
Bai Xiao was currently preparing to go eat with Qi Yuqing; An Zhiyuan was surely off working, Bai Song hadn’t returned, and Bai Jingshan’s chef was also refused by Bai Xiao; they couldn’t have special treatment every day.
So the two prepared to go to the hotel restaurant for a meal.
As soon as they left the room, the Cleaner arrived to clean the room.
Qi Yuqing feared Bai Xiao would be uncomfortable and nauseous from the smells again.
So she specially picked a seat by the window, even though this month in Capital City was bone-chillingly cold.
But still opened a crack.
The two ordered a vegetable salad.
Bai Xiao was still sensitive to the smell of oil and smoke.
Eating lighter would keep the three babies very quiet.
After eating, they returned to the room.
Bai Xiao found someone in the room.
Qi Yuqing was startled, supporting herself with a crutch, yet stood protectively in front of Bai Xiao.
In the end, the person who came out was An Zhiyuan.
Only then did Qi Yuqing breathe a sigh of relief, feeling a bit annoyed.
"An Zhiyuan! You scared me! Don’t you know scaring people can really frighten them to death."
An Zhiyuan was holding a kettle when he came out.
Bai Xiao noticed he didn’t look well.
"What happened? Is something wrong?"
Qi Yuqing belatedly closed her mouth.
An Zhiyuan put the kettle aside, "It’s nothing, I just came by to check on you."
Qi Yuqing pursed her lips, "Do you have to make such a big fuss?"
She was just a single person.
Suddenly she really missed that honest man.
"I’m going to walk off the meal."
Qi Yuqing tactfully vanished.
Leaving Bai Xiao and An Zhiyuan together.
An Zhiyuan washed a bowl of cherries for her, which were brought by Bai Jingshan, as he would have fresh fruits delivered every other day on a private jet.
Because Bai Xiao was here, Bai Jingshan stayed at the Capital City branch to oversee things.
He said it was to organize the Capital City branch’s business, but in reality, he was concerned about his daughter’s daily life.
The entire Bai company was aware their boss was a daughter-lover.
Wherever Bai Xiao was, Bai Jingshan would be there too.
Many people privately discussed it; no wonder they say a daughter is a father’s little lover from a past life, look at how Bai Jingshan dotes on his daughter to the core.
Who didn’t know that as long as they pleased Bai Xiao, the boss would definitely promote and give them a raise.
The assistant who delivered fruit to Bai Xiao last time just happened to wash a plate of fruit for Bai Xiao! Even made an extra effort to cut a fruit platter.
Bai Xiao graciously ate quite a lot, and after Bai Jingshan found out, the assistant directly became the president’s assistant with a 30% raise.
It was practically meteoric.
Jealoused quite a few people.
Now, who wasn’t racking their brains to be the one to deliver things to Bai Xiao?
Even if it was just delivering a meal, it was the highest-level job.
"Second brother, what’s the matter? Something must have happened, otherwise you wouldn’t show it on your face lightly."
Bai Xiao held onto An Zhiyuan’s arm, not letting him leave.
An Zhiyuan gazed at Bai Xiao! A wave of emotions crossed his heart.
Her face etched with fatigue, but her eyes reflected concern.
She instinctively reached out to touch his cheek. She loved everything about him, including his stubborn temper.
An Zhiyuan’s voice tightened.
"I just found someone had tampered with your water kettle and Qi Yuqing’s, it was a deadly kind of drug, very subtle, if I hadn’t followed the woman pretending to clean in, I wouldn’t have noticed."
Just thinking about it, if he hadn’t noticed, Bai Xiao and Qi Yuqing would unknowingly have drunk it, he couldn’t imagine the consequences.
Bai Xiao was dumbfounded.
"Poison?"
They wanted her dead that much?
She smiled slightly, wrapping her arms around his neck, kissing his cheek.
"Don’t be afraid, Yuqing and I usually don’t drink the water here, it’s always bottled water Dad sends over, seems like there’s an advantage to being a rich second generation, at least it reduces the risk of being poisoned."
He held her tightly and kissed her again, this time not briefly.
Bai Xiao embraced him tightly, her eyes lowered, relishing the warmth his closeness evoked.
She loved him so much, she sometimes scared herself.
"Who was it, tell me who wants me dead?"
Bai Xiao took a breath, leaning against An Zhiyuan’s chest! Since An Zhiyuan caught the person on the spot, there was no way he would let them go, otherwise he wouldn’t be the An Zhiyuan Bai Xiao knew.
"You will be surprised, it’s a man called Sheng Muyuan, he paid a million to have you killed, the previous car accident was orchestrated by this woman but with a makeover, and because she failed, she tried to sneak in again for another attempt."
"Sheng Muyuan? I don’t think I know him?"
Bai Xiao tried hard to recall, in her memory, what dealings she had with Sheng Muyuan.
"You don’t need to worry! Big brother has already gone with my men to find Sheng Muyuan, believe we’ll have results soon, no matter who he is, if he dares touch my woman, I’ll make sure he won’t be able to move again."
An Zhiyuan said, somewhat irritable, this incident made him anxious and uneasy.
Bai Xiao hugged An Zhiyuan tightly, soothing his unease.
