Chapter 257: Nothing Could Be Hidden from Him
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After Chen Hua finished speaking, she grabbed her things, pushed Mu Anan away, and walked out of the office.
Mu Anan stood where she was without moving.
Chen Hua’s accusation silenced Mu Anan.
Her heart felt like it had been stabbed by countless sharp objects.
It was especially painful and uncomfortable.
Mu Anan began to doubt herself.
In her friendship with Chen Hua, Mu Anan had always been bad-tempered, domineering, and sotis too straightforward when speaking to Chen Hua.
Chen Hua had always tolerated her with a good temper.
That was the first ti Mu Anan had seen Chen Hua break down and complain like that. She began to suspect that it was because she had taken Chen Hua for granted.
Especially Chen Hua’s last sentence, ‘1 really can’t stand your high and mighty attitude.’
It made Mu Anan doubt whether what she had done was right.
Chen Hua’s breakdown and her inferiority complex.
Was she really wrong?
Mu Anan fell into self-doubt and felt very uncomfortable.
Mu Anan had very few friends since she was young, almost none.
In the past, when she was in the Mu family, a car was arranged to fetch her to and from school, and she had little contact with the children in class.
It was mainly because Mu Anan had heard the children in the class badmouthing her in the washroom several tis. She was not the kind of person who would ask for a snub.
She felt that if the children did not like her, she would not be with them. She would study and do her own things.
Mu Anan was also like that when she was adopted by Seventh Master.
All she wanted to do was practice and study hard. It didn’t matter if she had friends or not. She wasn’t lonely anyway.
Later on, when she went to university, she deliberately pretended to be ugly to avoid Jiang Qin because she went to the sa university as her. And as a result, she did not make friends too.
Mu Anan still rembered that the first ti she spoke to Chen Hua was in the school canteen.
Back then, when Seventh Master was on a business trip, Mu Anan had a sudden impulse to try eating in the canteen since she had never eaten there before.
She thought the school could use WeChat paynt, but the dical school required a al card. Mu Anan was dumbfounded.
When she was about to leave, Chen Hua patted Mu Anan’s shoulder and carefully handed her the al card.
At that ti, Chen Hua did not dare to look at Mu Anan and spoke softly.
Mu Anan could no longer rember what she had said. She had probably ant to let Mu Anan use it first since they were in the sa class.
After that, they ate together and did not say much.
Chen Hua was introverted, and Mu Anan was used to being alone.
The al was rather awkward, but Mu Anan could never forget it.
She couldn’t forget the noisy canteen and the not-so-delicious lunch. The sunlight shining in through the window made the canteen especially hot.
Later, during a major class, Mu Anan took the initiative to sit with Chen Hua for the first ti. The two of them slowly got to know each other.
Mu Anan had a short temper. She would inevitably beco self-conscious since she was used to being alone. However, Chen Hua had always been tolerant and did not get angry with her.
Mu Anan felt that she only had one friend who was good to her. She did not know what else she could do other than treat Chen Hua better.
However, Chen Hua’s accusation made Mu Anan begin to doubt herself.
Was all the good she did wrong?
Because Chen Hua did not feel happy. Instead, she felt she was high and mighty and showing off.
Mu Anan lowered her gaze.
At the sa ti, a creaking sound ca from the quiet office.
The door was pushed open.
Mu Anan turned around and saw Ruan Yu carefully pushing the door open. She secretly heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Mu Anan was the only one in the office.
Ruan Yu looked at Mu Anan and hesitated.
Mu Anan adjusted her emotions and smiled. She returned to her seat and turned on her computer to understand the patient’s recent condition.
It was as if nothing had happened.
Ruan Yu peeked at Mu Anan a few tis and hesitated.
Mu Anan knew, but she pretended not to see it.
She didn’t feel like talking right then.
When it was ti for her rounds, Mu Anan took her notebook and pen and left.
It seed to be especially quiet that night. Mu Anan patrolled around and found that all the rooms were quiet.
Many who couldn’t fall asleep lay there in a daze and didn’t speak.
Mu Anan deliberately left Momo’s ward for the last.
As soon as she reached the door, she saw Huo Xian sitting in front of Momo’s ward through the small window.
The two of them were playing with their phones.
Mu Anan could see Huo Xian’s phone from where she was standing. The two were playing a ga, and the scene was quite harmonious.
Although Momo’s expression wasn’t intense, it was much better than usual.
Mu Anan watched for a while before leaving.
She did not return to her office. Instead, she sat alone on the bench in the long corridor.
The corridors of the ntal hospital were especially empty at night.
Because it was the Depression Departnt, it was especially quiet.
The patients in other departnts were very lively at night, and the commotion was quite big.
Mu Anan sat on the bench in a daze, thinking about Chen Hua.
At that mont, she wanted to find soone to ask if she had done sothing wrong and not consider Chen Hua’s feelings.
Or rather, was she spoilt and never had any qualms when she spoke?
But who should she tell?
Mu Anan didn’t want Seventh Master to worry.
Although Seventh Master had never ntioned it, the matters in Liuli City must be troubleso. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have co back and imdiately rushed over.
Seventh Master had rushed back imdiately because of Mu Anan’s tone on the phone. Mu Anan did not want to cause him any more trouble.
Just as Mu Anan was thinking about that, her phone rang.
It was a video call from Seventh Master.
Mu Anan stared at it for a few seconds and subconsciously wanted to hang up, thinking it was not a good ti for Seventh Master to see her.
However, if she hung up, Seventh Master would beco more worried.
He had a lot of things to do, and she really couldn’t continue to cause trouble.
Mu Anan thought for a few seconds, then rubbed her face and tried to put on a relaxed smile as she accepted Zong Zhengyu’s video call request.
The screen paused for a second before Zong Zhengyu’s face appeared.
His entire face was almost on the screen.
However, even if his face was zood in, it was still flawless. In fact, it even highlighted the perfection of that face.
His eyebrows, eyes, nose, and even his mouth were all very exquisite and perfectly proportioned.
No matter how one looked at it, it was breathtaking and tempting.
Since Mu Anan had liked that man for so many years, she naturally looked at him with a filter.
However, Mu Anan had always felt that that man was still extrely handso even without her filter!
“Brother Yu, have you arrived?” Mu Anan asked softly.
Zong Zhengyu distanced his phone and placed it on the coffee table, clearly showing the man sitting on the sofa.
He was wearing a simple shirt with three buttons open at the collar, giving him a casual charm.
Zong Zhengyu didn’t say anything but stared at Mu Anan, who was smiling at him, with suspicion.
Mu Anan was afraid he would notice sothing, so she took the initiative to say, “Seventh Master, I’m on duty.”
Zong Zhengyu frowned, “Did Jiang Zhen look for you again?”
Mu Anan quickly shook her head, “No.”
“Stop smiling.” Zong Zhengyu leaned back on the sofa, easily seeing through Mu Anan’s disguise, “Tell . What happened?”
It was hard to refute those words.
