Chapter 972
In a split second, everyone stared at Melody Fox and guessed her identity.
“Don’t tell me it’s not some special agent… who has his eyes on our branch company?”
“I think you’ve watched too many movies. Where did so many agents come from? Why are the agents targeting us? If they want to target someone, they should be targeting headquarters.”
“Could she be President Shi’s daughter? I heard that President Shi has a daughter who studies abroad. She seems to be a medical student too!”
“Eh? That’s possible, but I’ve never heard her call CEO Shi Dad’. Moreover, she doesn’t seem to be worried about CEO Shi’s life and death. She’s a little too calm.”
“That’s true. If it was her father who vomited blood, no matter who it was, as his daughter, she wouldn’t be so calm.”
The woman crossed her arms and glanced at Liu Gaoyi coldly.
“Didn’t your mother teach you how to spell the word courtesy? Don’t you know to introduce yourself before you ask for someone’s identity and name?”
Liu Gaoyi looked like he wanted to kill her with his eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, “I won’t change my name or my surname, Liu Gaoyi!”
“Oh, so it’s you.” The woman smirked with interest.
Liu Gaoyi’s face darkened.
There it was again, that look as if he was looking at a clown.
He hated it the most when this woman looked at him like that!
If not for the fact that the two generals in his hands had fallen to Melody Fox, he would have dug out the other party’s annoying eyes!
He clenched his fists tightly and said, “It’s your turn! Who are you?”
The woman was about to speak when a hoarse voice suddenly sounded-
“What’s wrong with me?”
Everyone was stunned for a moment before looking in the direction of the voice.
Shi Kai, who had just lost all consciousness, actually opened his eyes. Moreover, from his mental state, he seemed to be in good condition.
Shi Kai had really recovered under the woman’s treatment!
Some people in the lobby were happy while others were sad. Of course, Liu Gaoyi was the one in the worst mood. Assistant Hou was so happy that he was incoherent. “President Shi, you’re finally awake. You scared me to death! Just now, your expression suddenly didn’t look right. Then, you suddenly vomited blood and suddenly fainted. Then…” “Alright, stop talking. You’re going to make me dizzy again.” Assistant Hou quickly covered his mouth, afraid that he would really make Shi Kai faint again.
Just as Shi Kai was about to get up from the ground, a hand suddenly pressed down on his shoulder.
“Don’t move. I’ll remove the silver needles for you first.”
As the woman spoke, she removed the silver needles from Shi Kai’s body one by one.
At this moment, Shi Kai realized that his chest was bare, and there were a few silver needles that were pierced very deeply into his body.
He subconsciously followed the woman’s hand and looked up. As he looked, he asked, “You…?”
The next second, when he saw the woman’s face clearly, his eyes suddenly widened like copper bells. The words he wanted to ask about her identity were stuck in his throat. Assistant Hou did not notice Shi Kai’s expression. He only felt his body freeze and thought that Shi Kai was wondering who this woman was.
Hence, Assistant Hou explained, “President Shi, it was this female doctor who saved you. If not for her, I’m afraid you wouldn’t have woken up so quickly. Something big might have happened…”
Seeing that Shi Kai had almost completely recovered, Liu Gaoyi could only brace himself and say with a dry smile, Old Shi, it’s good that you’re fine. You scared me to death! I thought that this woman was a scammer who wanted to harm you. Hahaha, I didn’t expect it to be a misunderstanding!”
As soon as Liu Gaoyi finished speaking, Shi Kai reprimanded him with a dark expression, “How dare you!” Liu Gaoyi was shocked. He thought that Shi Kai was here to settle scores with him because he was so angry that he vomited blood. He saw Shi Kai hurriedly get up from the ground after the last silver needle was removed and bow deeply to the woman.
..” Liu Gaoyi’s lips twitched.
Even if the other party was his savior, there was no need for him to bow so respectfully, right?
This bow… His forehead was about to hit the floor tiles.
Liu Gaoyi was mocking in his heart when he saw him bow even more-
Shi Kai bent his legs and knelt down in front of the woman.
This kneeling shocked everyone so much that their eyes widened.
Bowing was understandable, but kneeling… wasn’t this shortening the young lady’s lifespan?
However, the little girl seemed to accept it very calmly. She nodded and said calmly, “Alright, get up.”
Just as everyone looked at each other in shock, Shi Kai shook his head and said, “I can’t get up yet. Mrs. Swanson, you saved my life. Please accept my bow!”
As Shi Kai spoke, he kowtowed to Melody Fox.
Melody Fox shrugged and said, “Alright, can you get up now?
How much do you want me to shorten your lifespan before you stop?”
Shi Kai was shocked and shook his head repeatedly. “No, no. Your status is noble. You deserve my bow.”
After Shi Kai finished speaking, he realized that the company lobby had suddenly become silent.
His brain was two beats slower before he roughly understood what was going on. He turned to look at Assistant Hou.
“Even you don’t know that this is our Mrs. Swanson?”
Assistant Hou swallowed hard, his Adam’s apple clearly bobbing up and down.
He shook his head and said mechanically, “I-I know now…”
Shi Kai slapped his head and remembered that he was the only one who had Melody Fox’s photo. Moreover, he had to go around in circles to get Melody Fox’s photo. If he was already like this, it would be even more difficult for others to get Melody Fox’s photo. Of course, they did not know Melody Fox’s identity.
“I’m really sorry, Mrs. Swanson. I forgot to tell them what you look like… It’s really because my illness really makes me forgetful. It’s all my fault. Please punish me!”
Melody Fox had no intention of punishing Shi Kai.
She happened to see the farce before Shi Kai fainted, so her impression of Shi Kai was not bad.
She shook her head and said as kindly as she could, “It’s not your fault. How can you be sick? Go find a place to lie down for a while. Although I pressed your blood pressure with a silver needle, your blood pressure is still a little unstable, so you have to lie down for at least half an hour. If there’s any dizziness or nausea in this half hour, or if your hands and feet are numb, immediately call someone to tell me.”
“How can I do that?” Shi Kai said. “The project is still…”
“I’m in charge of the project. Am I in charge of this project? Oh, right… On the way here, I was delayed by some private matters. Sorry for making you wait.”
Shi Kai shook his head repeatedly. “Not long, you’re not late. It’s our duty to wait for you.”
Melody Fox raised her eyebrows and said in a commanding tone, “Let’s not talk about this anymore. Hurry up and rest. At least lie down for half an hour. I don’t need to emphasize anymore, right?”
“Yes, I’ll go now…”
As the head of the branch company, Shi Kai had his own lounge.
He placed Assistant Hou beside Melody Fox and asked Melody Fox to follow him and ask if there was anything she didn’t understand. Only then did he go to the lounge with the help of his other subordinates.
