Page 297 of Keep Distance, Mr. CEO!

Indeed, that’s the invitation to the international jewelry appraisal conference.

"Dad, is this appraisal conference very famous?"

"Nonsense! It’s held only once every three years and is the exhibition that everyone in the jewelry industry around the world is dying to attend. When the time comes, all the big shots will be there, along with business and political figures. You tell me, is that famous or not?"

It’s famous; indeed, it’s very famous!

The young man, who had just entered the industry, finally relaxed a bit after hearing his dad’s words over the phone: "Alright, then I’ll go and make the arrangements."

Ou Mucen’s grandfather was satisfied: "Good that you understand. Remember, this is a very important opportunity for you. Whether Yuzhirun can succeed or not depends on you. Also, when you go this time, remember to go with the La family’s daughter."

The La family’s daughter?

Why?

The man who hadn’t hung up the phone immediately looked upset: "Why do I have to go with her?"

The old man glared: "Her dad is a diplomat in Japan, now you tell me whether you should take her or not?"

Ou Mucen: "..."

——

Ye Ning didn’t worry too much that night after making sure Xiaobao was well taken care of. After eating dinner upon returning to her hospital room, she spent her last night in the hospital on that small hospital bed.

After one night passed, the next morning, Ji Chengzhi lived up to his promise, indeed issuing her discharge papers as soon as he started work, and then she went to settle her hospital bills.

"Excuse me, may I ask how much it is?"

"You don’t need to pay for this, your bill has already been put under Third Young Master’s account, it will be settled automatically."

"..."

When she was settling the bill, she actually wanted to pay herself, but the cashier, just as Ji Chengzhi had told her that day, said the fees had already been settled by that man.

Settled?

She remembered the insults that man had hurled at her in the life hall the day before, and suddenly, a trace of mockery flashed across her lips...

Because she was a beggar? Too poor to buy a dress, too poor to afford medical bills, so he was giving her alms?

She handed over her bank card coldly: "No need, you print out the bill and see how much it is, just take the exact amount."

"But..."

"Don’t worry, I’ll explain it clearly to your director." She left no room for negotiation, her attitude very firm.

Seeing this, the cashier finally took her bank card and processed the payment.

Is this woman crazy?

Someone was paying her medical bills, and she didn’t want it. She was truly foolish.

As the cashier took the payment, she looked at Ye Ning more than once with an eye that said ’what an idiot’, but Ye Ning pretended not to notice. Once the cashier finished collecting the money, Ye Ning picked up her simple luggage and left.

"Aning, have you come? We’re waiting for you to have breakfast over here."

Just as she left the hospital, Lin Yebai called her on the phone, urging her to hurry.

Upon seeing that, Ye Ning casually hailed a taxi and got in: "I’m already in the car, I’ll be there quickly. You guys can start eating, no need to wait for me."

"It’s okay, we just got up not long ago. Be careful on the way."

The man on the phone still had the same gentle voice as always, and his tone conveyed his uniquely gentle and elegant manner. Hearing this, Ye Ning didn’t know why, but she felt something warm well up inside her, and her mood wasn’t as bad as before.

That’s right, things weren’t that terrible after all. Once it’s all over, everything will naturally get back to usual.
