บท 37: DETAILED

"How do you know there's another gate to get in?" Suyin got surprised when Wang Shi drove the car to the back gate to save her from the overwhelming crowd of reporters. How thoughtful! "Oh wait! It was a silly question," She slapped her head and heard him chuckle.

"Glad you realized it on time,"

She raised her hand in defeat. Wang family was not only famous for their businesses but for their long history in politics. They had been holding powerful positions in the country's politics for generations. If it was not for Wang Shi choosing the medical field, he'd be the next presidential candidate to carry on the position after his father….. The current president of the country, Wang Huang!

Knowing this minute detail about the ministry office was no big deal for him. He must have been here a thousand times as later his mother started her political career from the same building.

"You mind if I take the car?" Though he questioned her, his sharp gaze was scanning the premises for any stray reporter who might have wandered here.

"I was about to say that. You have a patient to see, don't make him wait for you. I'll pick the car from your hospital later," Getting a nod from him, she put on her sunglasses and was about to leave when she realized he had not released the car lock.

Turning, she was about to question when saw him smile, "All the best,"

She smiled back, pushed the sunglasses arrogantly, and winked, "Thanks, the evil is going to kick their asses."

Wang Shi waited for her to enter the building before driving off.

"I got late… I got late… I got late…." Tugging her curls, Fei Hong ran around the room like a panicked chicken and ran to her cupboard. "AHH…"

"WHAT HAPPEN? WHAT WAS THAT NOISE?" A middle-aged woman with a pink apron tied around her waist strode inside, waving a greasy spatula. She gasped seeing her daughter on the floor, buried under the pile of clothes. "How many times I've told you to keep your cupboard organized, but who listens!?"

Fei Hong pulled off the clothes from her head and jutted her lips out in complaining, "Why didn't you wake me up? And why that stupid alarm didn't buzz?" She gave an accusing look to the round alarm clock and saw her mother let out a long-suffering sigh.

"Though I gave you birth, sadly we don't have any telepathy between us. Did you ask me to wake you up?" She scowled at Fei Hong unhappily for a second and then walked to the bed table, "How stupid can you be!? You set the alarm but forgot to switch it on,"

"Keep that spatula away from my things." Fei Hong reminded before picking a miss-match pair of undergarments as she ran towards the bathroom, shouting, "I got late… I got late…"

"But the timing of your Radio show is at night, what are you late for?" Fei Hong's mother yelled outside the bathroom door.

"To meet someone,"

"Your boyfriend? Can I come with you?"

"MOM, STOP THINKING NONSENSE. It's work-related,"

"Your life sucks, Hong," was her mother's answer as she grumbled in disappointment.

At People's Hospital

Wang Shi went to his main office first and Daiyu dropped the task in hand and followed him without being asked. By now he has a deep understanding of Wang Shi's nature and his way of work. If he has come straight to the main office, it was definitely something serious.

"A press conference is about to be held at the office of the Ministry of Women and Child Affairs; I want all the CCTV footage." Wang Shi took the seat, "And I need detailed information on Miss. Zhao Suyin. DETAILED. If you need time, take it. But first, inform me of her background in medicine."

"Yes sir," Daiyu nodded, taking the task seriously. He was a no-nonsense assistant who doesn't poke nose in his boss's private affairs. Every order from Wang Shi was a task he was obliged to fulfill. That's a quality Wang Shi likes in him most.

But… That doesn't mean anyone can take him for granted. Little Daiyu was a man of few words with a sharp tongue with a witty mouth. No one can dare to mess with him!

"Wait," He paused hearing Wang Shi's voice, "Zz… Contact him. KEEP CONTACTING until you get through,"

Daiyu left. Wang Shi sat for a few moments lost in thoughts, feeling something was wrong was about Suyin- the way she reacted in the car, nervous, giving him an explanation about the message when nor it was required neither he asked for it.

He might have ignored it earlier, but now his mind cannot stop thinking why her phone buzzed right at the time when he messaged Zz.

And what did Zz mentioned last night!? Ankle sprain!?

Is it a coincidence that Suyin had ankle sprain too?

Really!?

Letting out a sigh, he raised his phone up to….. The message was still unread! Zz didn't appear online!

Had he been overthinking!?

Zz's a man, and Suyin's a woman! Though there are lots of voice changing devices, can a person change the way they talk?

He brooded on don't know for how long when his phone rang.

"Hello,"

A caller in a panicked voice, "Gu Feng, vomited blood,"

"WHAT? I'm on my way." He picked his lab-coat without a second delay, "Keep OT ready,"

The Ministry of Women and Child Affairs

9:45 A.M.

The auditorium hall was meant to take guest lectures for the college students, but since the normal hall was not spacious to accommodate everyone, the ministry set up everything in the auditorium.

The Press conference was about to start at ten; in the meantime, Suyin was waiting in the VIP room looking at some documents.

"Mam," She looked up from documents and saw three interns standing, neatly dressed in formals with hands clasped in front. "What you guys are doing here? Didn't Long Tao inform you that I won't let your names out at any cost? Are you scared?"

Ignoring Yu Mixi for a second, Suyin asked the two boys who accompanied her the other night when they went out to get evidence against Hui Guozhi; disguising as daily wage laborers..
