Shen Zhinian looked puzzled and replied innocently: "I just went to see Mr. Qin, and there was no one else."
Lu Jingchuan's brows did not loosen. He obviously didn't believe her words, but he didn't ask any further questions. He just went through the contract again and handed it to her after confirmation: "Well done, let Gao Qian come to me."
This is a follow up.
Shen Zhinian didn't expect him to praise her, so he nodded and turned to leave.
A feeling of dizziness suddenly hit her. She staggered a step, barely managed to steady her body, and then continued to leave after regaining her strength.
Lu Jingchuan's eyes followed her to the outside of the glass door, with unnoticeable worry in his eyes.
As soon as Shen Zhinian came down the stairs, he bumped into Gao Qian who was about to go upstairs, and truthfully conveyed Lu Jingchuan's instructions.
Gao Qian just stared at her face, slightly worried: "Secretary Shen, your face doesn't look good. Do you want to take a rest first?"
"It's okay, maybe it's because I haven't slept much recently." Shen Zhinian waved his hands indifferently.
She stepped down with her feet, and the severe dizziness hit her again. She lost her balance instantly and fell crookedly.
"Secretary Shen!"
Gao Qian yelled, ran two steps in a hurry, and barely caught Shen Zhinian's body. Before she could steady herself, Shen Zhinian was picked up with a light hand.
She looked up and saw that Lu Jingchuan had come out of nowhere. He pursed his lips tightly, hugged Shen Zhinian steadily, and strode downstairs straight to the elevator.
People in the secretary's office stood up and looked around, whispering to each other.
Gao Qian looked at Lu Jingchuan's hurried back, and the doubts in her heart widened - Lu Jingchuan and Shen Zhinian didn't look like ordinary bosses and secretaries.
Lu Jingchuan hugged Shen Zhinian and did not dare to move.
The dull atmosphere in the car forced the driver to step on the accelerator and not dare to go any slower.
The journey that used to take half an hour took ten minutes to reach the hospital gate.
Lu Jingchuan rushed directly to the emergency room with the person in his arms: "Let her have a look."
The nurse hurriedly went to notify the doctor. After a while, the doctor came out with a calm expression and said comfortingly: "The patient is not seriously ill. It is hypoglycemia caused by overwork."
Lu Jingchuan's tense expression relaxed, and he nodded without waiting for the doctor to speak again: "Then please take care of the doctor, I have to leave first."
The doctor saw that he was walking quickly and swallowed the unfinished words in his stomach.
An hour later, Shen Zhinian woke up slowly. When she opened her eyes, she first smelled the pungent smell of disinfectant. She sat up suddenly and found herself lying in the hospital.
Who sent her here? The last person I saw in my mind was Gao Qian. Could it be Gao Qian? Does Lu Jingchuan know?
With many doubts surrounding her mind, Shen Zhinian rang the bell quickly.
Within a few minutes, a doctor in a white coat walked in.
"You're awake. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"I feel fine now. Who sent me here?" Shen Zhinian asked eagerly for confirmation, regardless of his own physical condition.
"It's a man. He paid the fee for you, but didn't leave any contact information." The doctor answered questions.
Shen Zhinian was almost sure it was Lu Jingchuan and asked nervously, "Does he know about my physical condition?"
The doctor seemed to know what she was asking and responded calmly: "He knows the reason why you fainted; but he doesn't know about your pregnancy."
The big stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground smoothly, and Shen Zhinian breathed a long sigh of relief.
The doctor pulled out his chair and sat down, and asked earnestly: "Is that child his?"
"This has nothing to do with you, thank you doctor." Shen Zhinian developed a sense of boundaries and avoided the topic.
Who knew that the doctor took off his mask and looked at Shen Zhinian seriously: "Nian Nian, I really care about you."
The familiar title stunned Shen Zhinian.
Shen Zhinian looked at the strange yet familiar face in front of him, quickly searched in his memory, and finally matched the person in his memory. He couldn't believe it: "Juanjuan? You really became a doctor!"
Chanjuan was her good friend in high school, and they were quite close at that time. Unfortunately, they parted ways after going to college, and their contact became less and less.
But Shen Zhinian cherished that precious and pure high school friendship very much.
Seeing that she recognized her, Chanjuan felt very relieved and held her hand: "You have been having a bad time recently. I checked for you. The development of the fetus is too slow. Is the nutrition not keeping up? The father of the child Don't care about you? I'll talk to him next time he comes..."
"No need." Shen Zhinian interrupted her hastily, with sincerity in her eyes: "Don't tell him, he doesn't know about this child. I want to give birth secretly."
Chanjuan was shocked and understood for a moment, and sighed: "How can a child keep a man?"
"I don't want to keep him, I just want to raise him by myself, what's wrong with the child." Shen Zhinian murmured in a low voice.
The more she said this, the more Chanjuan felt sorry for her.
There were too many miscarriages in the hospital, so Shen Zhinian's choice to be a single mother was not a brave one.
"It's hard to raise a child alone, so you have to be mentally prepared."
"It's okay, I'm saving money." Lu Jingchuan is not stingy. It is not difficult to save enough for child support.
Chanjuan didn't want to interfere too much in her personal life, and only gave her a guarantee: "I will keep your medical records well, and I will also explain them to the nurses who come to check the ward. Don't worry."
Shen Zhinian was embarrassed: "I'm causing trouble for you."
After a pause, he asked hopefully: "Did he leave directly after sending me here? Did he give any additional instructions?"
"No."
The light in Shen Zhinian's eyes dimmed again instantly.
An hour later, Shen Zhinian returned to Lu's with the diagnosis certificate of hypoglycemia and anemia.
In the CEO's room, Gao Qian was reporting on her work. As she was talking, she noticed that Lu Jingchuan's eyes wandered outside the door. Following his line of sight, it was Shen Zhinian who was holding a few pieces of paper in his hand.
"Secretary Shen, are you back? What did the doctor say?" Gao Qian turned from passive to active and turned around to show concern.
As expected, Lu Jingchuan did not blame her for the interruption in the report.
Shen Zhinian curled his lips and smiled: "It's nothing serious, just a little hypoglycemia and anemia."
As she spoke, she put the diagnosis certificate on her desk and assured Lu Jingchuan: "It won't delay work. Don't worry, Mr. Lu."
Lu Jingchuan's face changed immediately.
What is she doing? Worried that he would deliberately burden her? Is this who he is in her eyes?
Shen Zhinian didn't know what he said wrong, so he cautiously added: "Today's missed work can be deducted from my salary."
Lu Jingchuan frowned so hard that he could pinch a fly to death, and waved his hand: "Go and rest."
"OK."
Gao Qian watched the interaction between the two of them, and after Shen Zhinian left, she quietly probed: "Mr. Lu is really sympathetic to her. All my colleagues are envious of Secretary Shen this afternoon."
Lu Jingchuan didn't even raise his eyelids and answered casually: "If they are as beautiful as Secretary Shen, there is no chance."
