Chapter 122 - Fever
Wu Chenjin saw his innocent expression and felt disgusted by his hypocritical words. He was as disgusted as his mistress’ mother.

Wu Chaotian pushed him away and stood up from the chair. He tidied up his clothes and said disdainfully, “Do you want to know about my relationship with Song Nuanyi?”
He sneered and pointed at Wu Chenjin’s shoulder. “Ask her yourself.”
The sky was full of dark clouds, making it hard for people to breathe.
Wu Chenjin walked on the street. The car behind him whizzed past him. Uncle Zhang followed him and kept persuading him.
“Little Jin, go back. It’s going to rain.”
Wu Chenjin acted as if he did not hear him and walked forward alone. The autumn rain was cold. He thought that he would be drenched to the core, but when he looked up, he found that he already had an umbrella.
“Uncle Zhang, don’t worry about me. I want to be alone for a while.”
He pushed the umbrella away and walked into the heavy rain alone. The cold rain beat down the yellowing leaves, causing the ground to wither and flutter in the heavy rain. The passing cars would slow down, but they would not notice him, his clothes, which were already drenched, were splashed with mud again.
When Wu Chenjin woke up, it was his bedroom. He had a fever and had been in a coma for two nights and a day.
He felt that his body was very heavy, and his head was hurting badly. Just as he was about to get up, the nurse at the door called out, “Uncle Zhang, Director Wu is awake.”
Uncle Zhang rushed in and said anxiously, “You’re finally awake. Tomorrow morning is the shareholders’ meeting and the engagement party!”
Wu Chenjin said in surprise, “Tomorrow?”
He rubbed his temples, which were throbbing all of a sudden. He did not expect that he had been unconscious for so long.
“Yes!”U ncle Zhang said angrily, “Wu Chaotian has already held a regular meeting when you were unconscious. I’m afraid the situation tomorrow will be very disadvantageous to us.”
Wu Chenjin was not too nervous. He stood up and said calmly, “Don’t worry. As long as Wu Chaotian continues to buy the Xue family’s stocks, he won’t be able to win.”
He was determined to win the game tomorrow. He took the phone from the pillow and called Song Nuanyi.
Song Nuanyi was talking to Wu Chaotian about closing the net tonight. When she received the call from Wu Chenjin, she quickly told Wu Chaotian to shut up.
Wu Chaotian deliberately teased her. After he picked up the phone, he coughed twice. Song Nuanyi immediately covered the receiver and glared at him.
Wu Chaotian smiled slyly and shrugged innocently, indicating that he would not make another sound.
“You finally woke up?” Song Nuanyi’s voice was gentle. “I was really scared to death yesterday. Your fever has not subsided. I originally planned to wait for you to wake up, but there was an emergency at the company. The doctor said that your condition is basically stable, so I left first.”
Qiao Kang had returned from Europe yesterday and brought back a shocking secret. This was the best time for her to defeat the Xue family in one fell swoop. She could not miss it.
“I’m sorry.” At this time, she could not stay by Wu Chenjin’s side to accompany him.
Wu Chenjin’s voice was hoarse and low, but it was as gentle as water. He comforted her, “You don’t have to apologize. I know you have your reasons for everything. Besides, I’m fine.”
He paused for a moment, then he said, “Where are you? I miss you. I want to see you.”
Song Nuanyi looked at Wu Chaotian sitting across from her. She thought for a moment and said, “Tonight, is it okay?”
“Okay.” Wu Chaotian hung up the phone and closed his eyes in deep thought.
He was very familiar with the coughing sound on the phone. It was a cough that Wu Chaotian deliberately coughed for him to hear. Wu Chaotian was telling him that his fiancée was with him.
Wu Chaotian was extremely impressed by Song Nuanyi’s ability to lie. He said teasingly, “Is Miss Song always this calm when she lies to me?”
“Yes,” Song Nuanyi admitted frankly. “With people like you, no matter how sincere I am, it’s a waste. After all, all you can see are benefits.”
Wu Chaotian laughed loudly. “I now believe that you’re just using Wu Chenjin.”
He stood up and walked to Song Nuanyi’s side, caressing her side profile playfully.
“Don’t marry Wu Chenjin. Sooner or later, he will become a cripple. It’s better to be with me.” He said confidently, “I will definitely make you the happiest woman in the entire Capital and the entire world.”
