Hong Guan came to the hospital as usual. But to his surprise, he didn’t see his wife, Jin Ziyao. He thought that she might have gone for a body check or to the washroom... However, he became worried when he saw that the ward bed was also empty. Furthermore, the items for daily use had vanished. He ran out of the ward in a panic and asked the nurse immediately.
"Oh, Jin Ziyao has moved to another ward this morning."
"Moved to another ward?" Hong Guan was shocked.
"Yes, she moved to the private room on the ninth floor..."
In doubt, Hong Guan came to the ninth floor... in another building. In one word, this building...was a luxurious place for rich people---Hong Guan composed himself before the door and went in. He felt very shocked upon seeing the highly decorated room. Certainly, he saw Jin Ziyao as well as another man---Li Zifeng!
...
"Mr. Hong, are you satisfied with this room?" Li Zifeng smiled. There was a saying that people would not get mad at one who was smiling. And Hong Guan was not at an impulsive age. Let alone, his wife was still here.
Hong Guan smiled to Jin Ziyao. She was sitting on the bed and looking at him at the same time. Hong Guan closed the door and came to the overhead floor talking with Li Zifeng.
"I don’t understand why you did this." Hong Guan frowned.
"Mr. Hong, don’t you want your wife to get the best delivery care?" He smiled and continued, "a nurse would provide 24-hour service for her. And the doctor would also start the ward rounds on time. Your wife likes this room so much."
"What did you say to my wife?" Hong Guan got angry.
Li Zifeng answered, "Take it easy, I said nothing but told her that all was arranged by Cheng Yiran. Of course, I told her not to inform you to give you a surprise."
"Is it Yiran’s idea?" Hong Guan suspected.
Li Zifeng continued, "Definitely, he gave you ten thousand RMB, a good job, and a nice ward." To be honest, I wouldn’t prepare these for you as we are not friends. I am doing these on behalf of Yiran. If you nod your head now, you can get the money and the job now."
Hong Guan shook his head, "I am confused as to why he would prepare these for me. I have never asked for these. And why doesn’t he come here himself?"
Li Zifeng said, "Mr. Hong, to be frank, Yiran said that he could help you if you are in a trouble. But he, will never see you again. And you’d better give up contacting him."
"Did he... actually say this?" Hong Guan held Li Zifeng’s collar, "Tell me!"
Li Zifeng couldn’t escape Hong Guan’s grasp, "Mr. Hong, every vocation has its rules. Yiran has to sacrifice because he has chosen to be a singer... You probably don’t know the importance of a public figure’s image, but we do. I think... Yiran knows it now. This is the reason why he asked for help from me. And he made a right decision."
"He really..." Hong Guan was dejected.
Li Zifeng opened his bag and took out a file, "Mr. Hong, I hope you can sign your name on the confidentiality agreement. It is a simple contract that you must guarantee that you won’t expose Cheng Yiran’s history anymore. In addition, you can’t contact Cheng Yiran via any means. Or you will be liable for this... of course, we will give adequate compensations to you, including 300,000 RMB, a decent job, and charges for hospitalization expenses."
Hong Guan glanced at the contract quickly and threw it on Li Zifeng’s chest, "Ridiculous, what does he mean? Does he want to end his relationship with me? Tell me! I want to see him now! Why can’t he talk to me face to face?"
"Mr. Hong, please leave on good terms." Li Zifeng was not angry. He said slowly, "Think about your wife, have you ever offered her a good life? Let alone providing a private room in the hospital. She is pregnant and it’s your baby."
His words touched Hong Guan deeply, resulting in him being unable to say a word.
Li Zifeng took out a pen, "Mr. Hong, you can get everything if you sign it. Think it over."
Hong Guan took a deep breath and grasped the pen, "Cheng Yiran, Cheng Yiran... Good job, Cheng Yiran!"
Hong Guan signed it quickly, "Don’t worry, I have signed it and I won’t mention him anymore. Tell him, we are total strangers now. I won’t accept the job and money. For the hospitalization expenses, I will return it to him one day! Tell him, I regretted meeting him!" After those words, Hong Guan threw the signed agreement to Li Zifeng and then left.
Li Zifeng laughed, and picked up the file page by page from the ground. He shouted at Hong Guan, "Mr. Hong, just call me whenever you want to get the money and job back."
But Hong Guan didn’t turn around.
...
...
"Hong Guan, you are a bastard!" Cheng Yiran was furious and threw the contract at Li Zifeng.
Li Zifeng picked it up after seeing the file falling down to the ground. He was extremely calm and moved his finger across the file while saying, "Yiran, things are clear enough."
Li Zifeng pointed at the beginning of the contract, "See, the contract has stated the party A and party B. Hong Guan is party A and you are party B. Party A promised to party B that he would never expose ’that story’ to anyone in case of that party B paid two million RMB as well as the hospitalization expenses to party A. If party B failed to provide the compensation, party A can expose the fact that Cheng Yiran has been in prison in the past." Then, he opened the last page pointing at the signature, "See, this is Hong Guan’s signature."
Cheng Yiran waved it away, "Take it away, I don’t want to see it!"
"But this is proposed by him with the maximum concession." Li Zifeng sighed, "You are passive and we have no choice."
Cheng Yiran kicked the end table, "I don’t have two million for him!" Although the company treated him well, but he had not signed an employment contract with the company. In a word---he had just an intern’s treatment.
"Don’t worry about the money." Li Zifeng patted Cheng Yiran’s shoulder, "I will pay it for you."
"What?" Cheng Yiran was shocked and frowned, "Why?"
Li Zifeng smiled, "Because we are the strongest partners in benefit." They were brothers who had benefits in common... They would not break up until the benefits were gone.
