Chapter 319 - Can Love Really Change Someone So Much?
Fang Zhihan had stepped out of his office to drop a kid off with his parents. The child had been visiting him for three months now so Fang Zhihan was more acquainted with him.
However, when he was about to go back inside his office, his eyes fell on the reception table and he recognized Mo Roulan in one glance.
"Roulan"
He called out in surprise. The first thought that came to his mind was that she was here to visit him. He had not expected Mo Roulan to visit him considering how cold and indifferent she had always been towards him.
Even today, Fang Zhihan remembered that Mo Chen was about to get discharged today and Mo Family will leave so he was about to go and visit them in half an hour.
However, seeing that Mo Roulan was here in front of his office instead of packing their stuff, he thought that she was facing some kind of problem and he immediately walked towards her.
"Roulan, is something wrong? Do you need some help?"
The young receptionist looked at Fang Zhihan and then Mo Roulan with wide eyes. She had never expected that Fang Zhihan would actually recognize Mo Roulan in one glance. Did it not mean that Mo Roulan was really close to Fang Zhihan.
Seeing how he was asking her if she needed any help, she was sure that it was really the case. She couldn't help but gulp in fear thinking this. If Mo Roulan complained about her to Fang Zhihan, then the young receptionist was sure that she would be fired instantly and she was also sure that it would be difficult for her to get any job in City H anymore.
The young receptionist looked at Mo Roulan with an expression that was clearly saying that she was pleading to her not to tell Fang Zhihan anything about her rude behavior.
Mo Roulan noticed the receptionist's expression but moved her eyes away indifferently. She didn't have any interest in snatching anyone's job. It was not like the receptionist was the first person she has seen who was like this.
She has seen many.
Mo Roulan didn't even know if she could really blame them. It was true that the world was filled with people like the one they thought she was.
However, it was not good to put everyone or her to put in the same category just on the basis of some observations for example her clothes in her case.
Her clothes were expensive. They were not branded so they will conclude easily that either she was poor or belonged to some middle class family and hence they would start to judge seeing her closeness with someone who was financially better than her.
In their eyes, she was with them just because of their money.
The young receptionist was just one of those people. However, she again didn't have time and any will to speak against her and waste her time on her.
She looked at Fang Zhihan and said calmly.
"Doctor Fang, I had gone to the reception to collect the hospital bills but the receptionist didn't tell me how much I am supposed to pay. She told me that I should talk to you regarding this matter."
A deep frown marred Fang Zhihan's forehead as soon as Mo Roulan finished.
He looked at the calm girl and noticed how her eyes were filled with determination. He was sure that she would not leave until he will tell her how much she was supposed to pay.
He sighed and said
"Okay, wait for a few minutes."
"Sure"
Mo Roulan said calmly and Fang Zhihan immediately went back to his office. He took out his phone from his pants pocket and dialed He Jian's number.
The call went through immediately.
"Jian, where are you?"
Fang Zhihan asked as soon as the call connected. However, instead of answering Fang Zhihan's question, He Jian asked him
"What happened?"
Fang Zhihan sighed and decided to tell the truth without any argument.
"Actually Roulan…
However, he had not even finished his words when He Jian interrupted him and asked
"Zhihan, Did something happen to Lanlan? Is she alright? I will be there in a few minutes. Chu Feng, drive fast."
Fang Zhihan's eyes went slightly wide with surprise as he heard He Jian's firing up order and questions one by one.
"So panicked you are!"
Fang Zhihan chuckled. His lips twitched the next moment and he said
"Now I suddenly understood why you pick my call so soon since the past few days."
"Chu Feng"
Fang Zhihan's lips twitched more when he heard He Jian's cold voice again. He could already imagine how fast Chu Feng must be driving the car but He Jian was still not satisfied. The cold and indifferent man wanted the car to become a helicopter so that he could reach his girl sooner.
"She is alright, Jian."
He said hurriedly suddenly feeling pity for Chu Feng.
"Oh…"
Fang Zhihan could feel He Jian's relief from the other side of the phone too. He was about to say more when he heard He Jian asking him.
"Then why did you call me?"
The voice was back to the cold and indifferent. Fang Zhihan sighed and couldn't help but pity himself now. He kept reminding himself of the favors He Jian had done on him. He kept remembering that He Jian was his friend and that's why he had to bear this cold and indifferent man.
Gathering all his thoughts, he told He Jian
"Your girl is standing outside my office. She…"
Fang Zhihan was about to say more when He Jian interrupted him again
"What is she doing there? She has a wound on her leg. I had especially asked her not to walk too much. And…Why did you not invite her inside your office when you know that she is outside?"
Fang Zhihan was speechless He was sure that he has never heard He Jian speaking so much. Though his words were still sharp and cold, he was witnessing a completely new side of He Jian.
As long as it was something related to Mo Roulan, he could speak so much.
Fang Zhihan wondered suddenly if love could really change a person so much.
