Drunk on Marriage, Billionaire's Overindulgent Love
Chapter 39 - 039. He paused, then said softly two words, “Thank you.”

Chapter 39: 039. He paused, then said softly two words, “Thank you.”

The feeling of suffocation in the chest seemed to have lessened, the frustration from the entire morning somehow dissipated unnoticed.

She rolled up the car window to block the glaring light.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the entrance of the hospital.

Nan Wan pushed open the car door, placed one foot on the ground, paused for a moment, and softly said two words, "Thank you."

To put it bluntly, had it not been for him this morning, who knows what Zheng Hua might have done.

Mu Jin Huan raised his gaze, arched his brows slightly, and leisurely said, "I don’t accept verbal gratitude."

In his deep voice, there seemed to be a hint of mockery.

Hearing this, Nan Wan got out of the car expressionlessly, her tone indifferent, "Then, Mr. Mu, just pretend I said nothing."

The car door was shut with a bang, sealing off all the scenery outside.

Mu Jin Huan retracted his gaze, casually glanced at the seat where Nan Wan had been, where the soft cushion still showed clear creases.

If one looked closely, they would notice that within those deep, cool eyes, a gentle smile was concealed.

Liu An still remembered that cold gaze, so he dared not act out, asking with utmost respect, "President Mu, are we still going to the cemetery?"

Mu Jin Huan flipped open the file rack with his slender fingers and said blandly, "To the company."

Every move and word conveyed indifference, as if the earlier trace of a smile had never appeared.

There was a major surgery at ten o’clock. For Qin Zhenzhen, it was her first time assisting, and she was quite nervous, pacing back and forth in the office, mumbling for a long time.

Nan Wan was dizzy from watching her and had a headache. Helplessly, she said, "Zhenzhen, go outside for some air. Calm down before coming back in, or don’t come in if you can’t calm down."

Hearing Nan Wan’s words, Qin Zhenzhen finally realized she was overly nervous. She stopped and blushed with embarrassment, "Doctor Nan, I’m sorry, I... I... never mind, I’ll go calm down outside."

After she finished speaking, without waiting for Nan Wan’s response, she jogged to the door, opened it, and ran out, even bumping her knee, squinting from the pain.

Nan Wan found it amusing, but before retracting her gaze, a familiar figure flashed by through the gap of the still-open door.

Her originally bright and smiling face turned cold suddenly. She tossed the pen she was holding aside, stood up quickly, and the chair scraped the floor with a harsh sound.

Her steps were quick, yet the person managed to close the elevator door just before she reached.

When Ye Junyan kicked open the office door, everyone inside was startled.

Shen Zhimei was taken aback, the file rack in her hand fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

Ye Junyan’s whole demeanor was as cold as if it could cut through bones, yet his handsome face seemed to carry a sarcastic smile, staring straight at Shen Zhimei.

Those with discernment in the room immediately understood this wasn’t an ordinary consultation. Knowing it was a private matter, they quickly stood up and said, "Doctor Shen, you attend to this first, we’ll go on our rounds."
