Chapter 158: Chapter 158: I Know This Person Too

"Because Miss Ye has offended someone."

"Offended someone?" Chai Chen was puzzled.

Ye Yan didn’t give those rich people any face when she was in the VIP, but she had never received a complaint.

"She has offended the Fu Family. This matter has now spread throughout all the hospitals in Ao City, and our HR department has received verbal warnings from the leaders; we absolutely cannot hire her. As soon as we see her resume, we should throw it straight into the shredder."

"You..." Chai Chen’s face turned red with anger, but he didn’t know who to vent to.

It wasn’t HR’s fault—they’re just employees too. If the leaders say not to hire, they surely wouldn’t dare to hire her behind their backs.

But it seemed the matter of offending the Fu Family wasn’t just an unfounded rumor.

Chai Chen had heard rumors at Holy Land Hospital related to the Fu Family, but it was all speculation without any concrete evidence.

Now, people were saying it with certitude, not like some hearsay, there must be someone who had provided real proof.

Who had the power to prevent Ye Yan from staying on in this industry?

Only Fu Xingzhou himself.

Chai Chen spotted Ye Yan waiting for him in the lobby from afar.

She wasn’t looking at her phone, but at a hospital resume.

Chai Chen didn’t know what she had gone through before, but the hospital materials she was looking at had dropped from the tier-three hospitals like Holy Land to the second and first-tier hospitals.

Chai Chen felt a pang of sorrow.

She clearly possessed great talent, but in the face of such powerful forces, she appeared so vulnerable and helpless.

The two chose a nearby restaurant.

While waiting for the food, Ye Yan asked for Chai Chen’s opinion with some materials in hand, "Although this hospital is a bit remote, they have a position that suits me."

Chai Chen took her phone and looked at it, forcing a smile, "It’s okay. If you go there, you could take on the big responsibility for the hospital’s minimally invasive surgery."

"You must need something from me, only then would you praise me like this," laughed Ye Yan, her eyes curving beautifully.

Chai Chen couldn’t resist, and he didn’t want to see her disappointed again and again.

"Ye Yan, did you offend the Fu Family?"

The smile on Ye Yan’s face froze. Being intelligent, she quickly grasped the meaning behind Chai Chen’s words.

"I just inquired with HR, and they said they’ve received orders from above to void all resumes of yours on sight because you’ve offended the Fu Family. They’re afraid to hire you, as hiring you would be opposing the Fu Family." Chai Chen’s expression turned grave, "These hospitals can’t compete with the Fu Family. They’re doing this for self-preservation, so you need to find the root cause of the issue."

Ye Yan thought of Vice Dean Fang’s previous strange reaction; now, what was there not to understand?

It was Fu Xingzhou who didn’t want her to have a foothold in this industry anymore. It was only after he had spoken that these people would take it as an edict.

Yet, they indeed had no relationship anymore.

The divorce certificate was processed by him personally, the ties were cut by him personally. Why did he continue to make things difficult for her?

Did he want to prove that without him, she, Ye Yan, wouldn’t be able to survive in this city?

Ye Yan was so angry that she trembled, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Ye Yan." Chai Chen hurriedly stood up, pulling out two tissues and handing them over, "I have some spare cash on hand, why don’t we open a clinic together? As long as you want to continue being a doctor, no matter what it takes, I’ll help you achieve it."

Ye Yan shook her head, pursing her lips, trying to hold back her tears.

"There will be a way when we get to the mountain, it’s okay, we’ll figure it out together."

Seeing her on the verge of tears, Chai Chen’s heart ached unbearably, but he dared not overstep his bounds; he could only keep comforting her with his words.

"I can’t drag you down with me," Ye Yan shook her head madly, tears streaming down, "It doesn’t matter if I stop being a doctor, but if it costs you your career too, then I would really feel guilty."

"It doesn’t matter," Chai Chen sat down next to her, and several times he wanted to reach out his hand but pulled back, "We can start over from the beginning."

If Fu Xingzhou continued to obstruct, let alone starting over, she might really have to leave this city.

As Ye Yan’s tears fell more and more, Chai Chen finally mustered the courage to move closer, lifted his hand to her slender shoulder, and let her rest her forehead on his shoulder.

Perhaps finding a safe haven she could rely on, Ye Yan buried her face in his shoulder socket, her silent tears falling, her shoulders trembling continuously, like a pitiful little animal that had been abandoned and targeted.

Chai Chen was first surprised, then quickly became nervous.

After a while, he remembered to loosely encircle her shoulders, gently patting her back for comfort.

He didn’t want to take advantage of someone in a vulnerable state, so he always maintained the decorum of a gentleman.

But with the girl he loved crying in front of him, he couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.

"That seems to be Dr. Chai from our hospital," a woman who had entered the restaurant with Liang Zheng pointed towards the window, "This is really huge gossip, Dr. Chai actually has a girlfriend."

However, the girl buried her face so deeply that her features were unclear, though just from her silhouette, she was certainly a beauty.

Dr. Chai was always aloof, and it was said that his family background was very impressive, but despite his excellent qualities, he was always single.

Recently, he had just been transferred from the VIP floor to the general floor and immediately became the object of pursuit by many girls, but alas, he was too indifferent, treating everyone with the same attitude.

"What’s the matter with the doctor, is he as handsome as I am?" Liang Zheng wrapped his arms around the girl’s shoulders, "Is he richer than me?"

"You’re so petty, I’m just saying," the girl coquettishly leaned into his embrace, "It’s just that his girlfriend looks a bit familiar."

"With that figure, she definitely can’t be ugly," Liang Zheng sized her up along with the girl, but as he looked, he sensed something was off.

Familiar? He felt the same.

At that moment, Ye Yan had cried enough, and as she moved away from Chai Chen’s shoulder, she realized she had stained his shirt.

"I’m sorry," Ye Yan hastily tried to wipe it off.

"It’s not a big deal, just a shirt," Chai Chen grabbed her wrist, "The food is about to arrive, let’s eat first."

At this moment, Liang Zheng’s eyes widened.

Dr. Ye, it was actually Dr. Ye.

He knew a bit about the recent split between his second brother and Dr. Ye, and it had been quite some time since he had seen Fu Xingzhou.

Every time he called him out to hang out, he would refuse with various excuses.

Not only had he and He Xuan not seen Fu Xingzhou, even Tang Jingyao said it had been some days since he saw him.

His second brother had suffered a heartbreak and was surely in seclusion to heal.

But for Dr. Ye to find someone so quickly, it seemed a bit heartless.

He felt it was unfair to his second brother and couldn’t remain silent.

After quickly snapping a couple of photos with his phone, Liang Zheng walked straight over.

"Mr. Liang, what, what are you doing?" The girl thought that her recent comment had caused a misunderstanding and now Liang Zheng was going over to settle the score with Dr. Chai.

Ye Yan saw Liang Zheng before Chai Chen did and noticed his aggressive demeanor. She hurriedly stood in front of Chai Chen.

The punch that Liang Zheng swung hit Ye Yan’s shoulder squarely.

Being children from rich families, they all had some martial arts training, and this punch didn’t hold back any force.

Ye Yan immediately let out a muffled groan of pain, and tears flew out.
