After waking up in the hospital, Xia Jin propped herself up and rubbed her sore forehead.

After the nurse saw that she was awake, she came over and touched her forehead. “Well, it’s not that hot anymore. You can stay in the hospital for a while for observation. Afterward, you can go back and rest for another two days.”

Xia Jin frowned and inquired with some confusion, “Why am I in the hospital?”

She remembered fainting in the shopping mall.

“Someone brought you here after you fainted,” the young nurse replied. She glanced enviously. “The one who carried you here was a handsome man. Is he your boyfriend?”

Boyfriend?

Xia Jin shook her head in amusement.

“I don’t have a boyfriend. Maybe it was just some kind person.”

There were several people standing next to her and watching the show when she was getting humiliated at the mall. She did not expect that someone would be so kind as to take her to the hospital.

Xia Jin thought of Huo Jue’s cold face again and clenched her fists immediately–three more months! In three months, she would be free!

“Mr. Huo, I… I’ll help you wipe it off?”

Jian Yan was looking at Huo Jue somewhat timidly in the business car. She did not dare to land the tissue in her main on the milk tea stain on Huo Jue’s suit.

An hour ago, Jian Yan was still feeling proud of herself, but she never expected a loud ‘thud’ to come from behind her the next second.

Then, she saw Xia Jin collapsing to the ground, unconscious.

What was even more unbelievable was that Huo Jue, who was standing next to her, froze for two seconds before picking Xia Jin up without saying a word and sending her to the hospital.

Could it be that… Xia Jin was really Mr.Huo’s lover?

Moreover, Mr. Huo still couldn’t forget Xia Jin?

Looking at the timid and flustered woman in front of him, a hint of impatience flashed across Huo Jue’s eyes.

Since Xia Jin had left, his life had been a complete mess.

Since Gao Lan was an administrative assistant, she had no idea about his habits at all. She did not know that he only drank coffee with thirty percent sugar added to it. Moreover, she did not know that he was allergic to tomatoes, and he did not like desserts!

In addition, Gao Lan had her own matters to attend to, so Huo Jue had no choice but to find someone to take over Xia Jin’s position

Unexpectedly, Jian Yan was even more useless. She did not even know the typesetting format of the contract, not to mention the complicated work.

If it were not for the lack of people around him, Huo Jue would have sacked Jian Yan long ago.

It was only then that Huo Jue realized how well Xia Jin had served him in the past, not only at work but in bed as well.

Huo Jue pressed his brows and waved his hand. “No need. Get out of the car.”

He felt annoyed with Jian Yan dangling in front of him.

Jian Yan was driven out of the car by Huo Jue with a pale face. The driver looked at her with a bit of sympathy and pity.

Upon returning to the company, Huo Jue asked Gao Lan to find him another secretary immediately.

“I’m not asking for much, just one like Xia Jin.” Although he was very reluctant to say these words, that was all that Huo Jue could describe to Gao Lan.

Gao Lan was stunned for a long time after Huo Jue hang up the phone.

A secretary like Xia Jin? This was not asking for much?!

Gao Lan had never seen anyone in the company who was more efficient than Xia Jin.

How was she going to find one for him?

Sigh, Xia Jin was doing a good job. Why did she resign…

Gao Lan felt a headache coming on.

After coming out of the hospital, Xia Jin tore off the bandage on the back of her hand and threw it away. Then, she patted her brain, which was still somewhat muddled.

She did not have the time to be hospitalized. She still had work to do.

When she hurried back to the store, a group of salespeople who were chatting idly when they saw her return, could not help but mock her, “It’s only your first day, and you’re already not punctual. Store manager, look at Xiao Xia. Isn’t she not taking our rules seriously? Eh, didn’t you say you’d buy us milk tea? Where’s the milk tea?”

Looking at Xia Jin’s empty hand, their expressions turned even more unsightly instantly.

Xia Jin walked up to the manager and said apologetically, “Manager, I’m sorry. I had some health issues and went to the hospital.” As she said that, Xia Jin showed the manager the needle hole on the back of her hand.

The manager was not an unreasonable person. He was rather touched after seeing that Xia Jin was so sick that she went to the hospital for an injection and still did not forget to come back to work. “It’s okay. Also, you can go back first if you’re not feeling well. Just ask Old Zhang for a sick leave.”

“Okay, thank you, store manager!”

Xia Jin was indeed feeling very unwell, so she did not decline his offer.

Seeing that Xia Jin was going to take a leave, the salespeople next to her rolled their eyes and pursed their lips speechlessly.

“I’ll send everyone red packets in the group chat later. I’ll be leaving first!” Xia Jin forced a smile at the salespeople and left after saying goodbye, having taken a sick leave.

She still had to work here for three months. Although she did not like these people, it was better not to make enemies with them.

As the milk tea was spilled by Jian Yan, she sent red packets to her fellow co-workers as a nice gesture. It would be great if those people appreciated her kindness, but if they did not, it was fine either way.

When she got home by taking the subway, Xia Jin took her keys out of her bag and was about to open the door. Just then, she saw several large parcels sitting outside her house. There were also people coming in and out of her house.

“Move faster! Did you not eat enough?!”
