Chapter 254 The BOSS told me I couldn't tell you.

Chapter 254 The BOSS told me I couldn't tell you.

About an hour later, they arrived at the private hospital owned by the Huo Group.

The moment Jiang Ruan entered the ward, she saw Huo Zhizhou lying unconscious on the hospital bed. His once perfect features now showed signs of fatigue due to excessive overtime work and staying up late, and he had also lost a lot of weight.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't emotional at that moment.

"Miss Jiang," Lin Bei greeted politely.

"What did the doctor say?" Jiang Ruan asked simply.

"The test was just finished, and the results aren't out yet." Lin Bei knew they were getting a divorce today, and thinking about what had happened before, he scratched his head. "Ms. Jiang, I have a favor to ask."

Jiang Ruan looked over and said, "You speak."

Lin Bei glanced at Huo Zhizhou, whose face was pale, and said, "The boss didn't mean to delay the divorce. Can you please not blame him?"

Jiang Ruan: "Mm."

Lin Bei's eyes lit up: "Really?"

Jiang Ruan gave him a definite answer: "Really."

Lin Bei clasped his hands in a fist and said, "From now on, you are my goddess! If you tell me to go east, I will never go west."

Jiang Ruan didn't respond.

About five minutes later.

Dr. Zhou came in with the test results.

All eyes turned to him, and Assistant Jiang stepped forward to ask, "Boss, what's going on?"

"He fainted due to overwork and not eating properly," Dr. Zhou explained, adding to Jiang Yu's concern, "No matter how busy you are, you should remind him to eat. Health is the foundation of everything."

Assistant Jiang: "???"

Assistant Jiang was slightly puzzled: "The BOSS eats three meals a day normally, how could he not be eating properly?"

Even if he works overtime until the early hours of the morning, he will order him a late-night snack, just in case he is too tired from work and will be hungry.

Dr. Zhou glanced at the test report in his hand again, and said with a serious expression, "Impossible."

“This is my ordering record for the BOSS.” Jiang Yu showed her chat history with the restaurant manager. “Every meal was nutritionally balanced, and I watched him eat them.”

"That shouldn't be the case." Dr. Zhou was puzzled by this.

If you follow this diet, even if you digest food quickly, you shouldn't end up with this test result.

It's obvious that Mr. Huo hasn't been eating properly for a while.

Lin Feng, who had been playing the role of a tool all along, suddenly spoke up: "I know!"

Lin Bei: "?"

Others also looked over.

Lin Feng spoke like a robot: "The BOSS vomited up everything he ate."

"Don't talk nonsense about things you didn't see." Lin Bei knew his brother's thought process was different from others, and subconsciously thought he was playing a guessing game. "This is not the time to joke."

"I'm not kidding." Lin Feng said seriously, "I saw it."

Jiang's assistant pressed further, "When did you see it?"

Lin remained silent.

Lin Bei urged him, "Just say it already."

Lin Feng frowned, looking very serious: "The BOSS instructed me not to tell you."

Assistant Jiang: "..."

Lin Bei: "..."

Sometimes being tight-lipped is a good thing, but being too tight-lipped shows a lack of flexibility.

“Then you should talk to Miss Jiang.” Assistant Jiang’s mind worked quickly, and she spoke to him unhurriedly, “The BOSS listens to Miss Jiang, so you, as her bodyguard, must listen to her too.”

Lin Feng thought for a few seconds and then readily agreed.

He led Jiang Ruan to a corner of the ward and told her everything he knew and had seen.

Two weeks ago, when he went to ask Huo Zhizhou when he would be sent to protect Jiang Ruan again, he happened to run into Huo Zhizhou vomiting in the bathroom after eating. He asked him if he should ask Assistant Jiang to take him to the hospital, but Huo Zhizhou told him not to say anything.

"That's how it is," Lin Feng summarized.

Jiang Ruan nodded and told Dr. Zhou and the others.

Lin Feng: "?"

Lin Feng: "Why did you reveal the BOSS's secret?"

After careful consideration, Jiang Ruan gave a reply: "For his own good."

Lin Feng wanted to say that even if it was for the BOSS's sake, he shouldn't reveal secrets casually, but he quickly realized that Miss Jiang was different from others, so he swallowed back the words he was about to say.

"Judging from this, Mr. Huo must have been vomiting after eating for a long time," Dr. Zhou concluded. "Otherwise, this wouldn't have happened."

"What caused this?" Lin Bei asked worriedly. "Can you find out?"

Dr. Zhou: "Excluding pathological causes in the head and stomach, it could be due to excessive stress or psychological factors. Only Mr. Huo knows the specifics."

Jiang's assistant glanced at Jiang Ruan subconsciously.

I had a guess in my mind.

"His stomach hasn't been damaged yet, so it's not too serious." Dr. Zhou was quite concerned about Huo Zhizhou's health. "As long as you keep an eye on his meals and prevent this from happening again, he can recover little by little."

"Okay," Assistant Jiang replied.

Ultimately, it was because he, as the special assistant, failed to fulfill his responsibilities.

He only just found out about something this big.

"You can talk outside. Mr. Huo's body and mind have been under too much stress and he needs rest." Dr. Zhou, recalling the conversation he overheard Lin Bei and the others when he came in, instructed, "We can talk about it after he wakes up."

Lin Bei: "Okay."

Lin Feng: "Okay."

Dr. Zhou nodded, then turned his gaze to Jiang Ruan: "You are free to make your own arrangements."

“Dr. Zhou,” Assistant Jiang said.

Dr. Zhou looked over.

After considering Jiang Ruan's purpose for coming to Jingzhou today, Assistant Jiang asked after much deliberation, "How long will it take for the BOSS to wake up?"

"It won't be until the afternoon at the earliest," Dr. Zhou replied, then, remembering Jiang's status as Assistant Jiang, gave him a few words of advice: "Even if he wakes up, as a doctor, I don't recommend that Mr. Huo immediately get back to work."

Assistant Jiang nodded slightly: "Understood."

Dr. Zhou grunted and left with the test report. Lin Feng and Lin Bei also went out to talk. After a while, only Jiang Ruan and Assistant Jiang were left in the ward.

Assistant Jiang carefully considered his words: "There are still a few hours until the afternoon. I'll take you to the hotel to rest first, and I'll contact you again after the BOSS wakes up."

"No need." Jiang Ruan walked towards the hospital bed. "It won't take more than a few hours."

Jiang's assistant paused for a moment.

I knew that what she meant was that she would get a divorce as soon as the boss woke up.

"Then please call me if you need anything." Assistant Jiang didn't say much more. "I'm in Dr. Zhou's office."

Jiang Ruan said "okay".

Assistant Jiang left, fearing that Mo Mo would speak ill of the BOSS and them in front of Jiang Ruan, so he took him with him.

The moment the ward door closed, Jiang Ruan sat on the single sofa next to the hospital bed, silenced her phone, and her gaze was fixed on Huo Zhizhou on the bed.

She couldn't describe how she felt.

Are you worried? A little.

Would you stay in a divorce because you're worried? No.

She simply sat there watching the person, breathing evenly, fall into a deep sleep, without saying a word to disturb them, nor deliberately thinking about anything else.

Just after 11 o'clock, my phone screen lit up with a message from Su Zhu: "Did you get the certificate?"

Jiang Ruan: [Not yet, something came up.]

Su Zhu pressed further: "What happened? Were you delayed, or was Huo Zhizhou delayed?"

Jiang Ruan typed Huo Zhizhou's name, then realized that Su Zhu might misunderstand the message, so she deleted it and replaced it with: 【It's nothing, I'm a bit busy right now, I'll let you know after I collect it.】

Su Zhu replied with an "okay".

Jiang Ruan put away her phone and just as she looked up, she bumped into Huo Zhizhou, who had just opened his eyes.

Only then did she notice that due to staying up too late, Huo Zhizhou's usually dark eyes had some bloodshot veins, and he didn't look as energetic as before.
