Chapter 819 - 812: Teasing
On the phone, Yin Tianshen sounded quite joyful, not at all like he was blaming Bai Yiran.
Bai Yiran wasn’t surprised to hear Yin Tianshen say this, as he had been this way since before. "You’re not being fair. I bought your shares at three times the price. Isn’t that why they say business people are deceitful? You made three times the money from me, and then who gives you the face to brag about it to me?"
Yin Tianshen laughed heartily at Bai Yiran’s words, "It seems you really have changed. The old Bai Yiran wouldn’t dare tease me in such a tone."
"Everyone’s changing, aren’t they?" Bai Yiran’s tone was a bit wistful.
"That’s right, everyone is changing." There was a brief silence on the other end before he continued, "Do you have time tonight? I’d like to take you out for dinner."
Bai Yiran felt a bit troubled, "I have to visit my father-in-law at the hospital after work."
"You’re quite the dutiful daughter-in-law," Yin Tianshen teased, "No worries, I can wait for you. If not, I can also visit the hospital; I don’t particularly dislike that old man."
Yin Tianshen had a good impression of Leng Liewei, after all, there aren’t many fathers-in-law with the guts to hand over the company they’ve painstakingly built to their daughter-in-law.
Moreover, at the shareholders’ meeting that day, that crazy woman repeatedly confused the shareholders, slandering Bai Yiran’s relationship with him. Yet, as the father-in-law, Leng Liewei didn’t suspect Bai Yiran even slightly, but instead spoke up in her defense.
Yin Tianshen thought that if he has a daughter one day, he must have her marry a man like Leng Yichen, not for the sake of Yichen, but purely because he could have such an open-minded father-in-law!
Of course, Yin Tianshen didn’t know the kind of grievances Bai Yiran had suffered at Leng Liewei’s hands in the past; if he knew, he probably wouldn’t think the same way today, would he?
Hearing that Yin Tianshen also wanted to visit Leng Liewei at the hospital, Bai Yiran was somewhat surprised. However, since he wanted to visit, she had no reason to refuse.
Bai Yiran told Yin Tianshen the address of the hospital and said they would meet there after she finished work.
At the end of the workday, Bai Yiran had Li Sha drive her to the hospital. When she arrived, Yin Tianshen hadn’t arrived yet. Luna was sitting by the bedside peeling an apple for Leng Liewei. Shortly after, Qiu Zi came in carrying a thermos.
"Auntie, this is the soup Aunt Wu made for Uncle; she asked me to bring it," Qiu Zi said, placing the soup on the table, and greeted Bai Yiran, "Yiran, you’re here!"
"Hmm!" Bai Yiran smiled, "How do you have time to be here now? Aren’t you on duty today?"
These past few days, Bai Yiran helped Qiu Zi find a job, which was at the hospital of the blind date Yao Zhiqing had previously introduced to her—the Ming Family’s hospital.
The Ming Family’s hospital is a men’s hospital. When Bai Yiran heard Qiu Zi was specializing in urology, Ming Kai was the first person that came to mind. She then tried to contact him, and it just so happened that the hospital had a vacancy, so Qiu Zi smoothly found a job.
However, the initial days weren’t easy for her. Ming Kai often had her work overtime or take extra shifts, claiming it was because Qiu Zi had been out of work for too long and needed to gain more clinical experience.
The moment Bai Yiran mentioned shifts, Qiu Zi’s face fell, "Ugh, I don’t have a shift today, but that Ming Kai just called and said it would be busy tonight, asking me to come back and work overtime! I really don’t get him; I’ve never seen a hospital that exploits labor like this!"
Bai Yiran looked at Qiu Zi’s disgruntled expression and couldn’t help but laugh. It seemed this girl’s emotional intelligence was really so low it was concerning. What’s so busy at a men’s hospital at night? Asking her back for overtime was just an excuse to spend more time with her, right?
Luna and Bai Yiran exchanged smiles. What they could all see, Qiu Zi obliviously had no clue about.
