“No problem, let’s go…”
Jiang Xiaowei thought the idea was great too.
So, to make Huo Mian happy, they went to a seafood restaurant.
They bought a lot of fresh seafood and drove to the First Hospital.
The First Hospital was pretty empty, possibly because of the rumors.
The two went to Huo Mian’s room…
They opened the door and were a little stunned.
Huo Mian wasn’t in the room.
“Eh? Where did she go?”
The two looked around in the room.
“You’re looking for me?”
A voice with a hint of coldness came from behind them.
The two turned around and saw Huo Mian in her patient’s gown.
It was strange, Huo Mian had perfect makeup on.
She wasn’t like a patient at all. If it wasn’t for her clothes, she could have passed for a fashion model.
Jiang Xiaowei and Zhu Lingling turned around simultaneously. Huo Mian’s beauty caught them off guard.
Huo Mian wasn’t good at putting on makeup, so what was this about?
“Damn, where’d you go? We got scared, thinking that you left the hospital already.”
Zhu Lingling ran over and playfully punched her.
These kinds of actions were normal between best friends, but Zhu Lingling saw a hint of disgust in Huo Mian’s eyes.
Maybe it was just her imagination.
“I went out for some fresh air.”
Seeing her best friends here, Huo Mian wasn’t very enthusiastic.
After speaking, she walked straight into the room.
“Lingling and I went shopping, this loser bought seven Chanel bags at once… Haha, Director Gao needs to work for the rest of his life.”
Jiang Xiaowei jokingly recounted what went down today.
Zhu Lingling seemed to remember something, as she took out a bag and handed it to Huo Mian.
“Mian, this is for you… It’ll be your ‘get better’ gift… I bought too many, I can’t use them all anyways.”
On the way here, Zhu Lingling picked one out for Jiang Xiaowei too.
Although they didn’t lack money, Zhu Lingling did it as an expression of friendship.
Her aesthetic tastes weren’t bad either. Although she bought the bags out of resentment, they were all pretty.
Especially the one for Jiang Xiaowei, it suited her style.
Zhu Lingling thought that Huo Mian would happily accept the gift as well.
After all, ever since she got married to Qin Chu, she rarely got presents from Zhu Lingling.
Only…
Huo Mian took one look at the bag, then said in a monotone voice, “France had this bag half a year ago, it’s not new.”
When Zhu Lingling heard Huo Mian, she was a little embarrassed.
Still, she smiled, “Yeah, it’s like that in China. After all, they’re not produced here.”
“I don’t think the color suits me, put it away… I don’t need a bag anyways.”
Huo Mian didn’t look like she was joking, she brushed off Zhu Lingling’s good will just like that.
That not only made Zhu Lingling feel bad, it made Jiang Xiaowei feel awkward as well.
They didn’t know what was with Huo Mian.
To mend the situation, Jiang Xiaowei said, “Mian, we’re here to have lunch with you. Let’s eat, I’m starving.”
“Yeah, haha, we walked for an entire morning without eating anything.”
Zhu Lingling and Jiang Xiaowei opened the bags of seafood.
They put them on the coffee table and sat on the sofa.
“Seafood?” Huo Mian frowned.
“Yeah, your favorite. Aren’t you surprised?” Zhu Lingling smiled while opening the bags.
“Don’t you think that seafood stinks and smells weird?” Huo Mian asked.
