"There's no need for that . You most likely won't be able to make him go away . If he has come to see me, then he is determined to see me at all costs . "
Huo Mian knew Huo Siqian rather well and knew Chen Jie did not have the ability to make him go away with some made-up excuse .
Huo Mian was in her white doctor's gown and was wearing her glasses . She had a black folder in her hands .
She was not only C City's youngest deputy director of a hospital but also the youngest in the country . She was a rising star in the medical industry .
Rumour had it that she was Professor Luo's disciple, which made many of her colleagues even more envious of her .
Before, some people at South Side thought Qin Chu used the money to bribe the executives to help Huo Mian climb up the ladder . Others thought she slept her way up .

As time passed by, people realized that Huo Mian was actually very competent .
She now had many roles . Not only was she the chief physician in the neurology department, but she was also a supporting surgeon in departments like orthopedics, OB/GYN, and neurosurgery .
Other than her medical roles, she had a hand in managing the hospital . She was indeed a very busy person .
When Huo Siqian heard the door open, he turned around . The moment he saw Huo Mian, his eyes glittered with joy . "Mian, you finished your morning meeting already?"
"You sure know my work flow well," she said calmly as she walked towards her desk and sat down .
Huo Siqian carefully put a snack box in front of Huo Mian .
"These almond cookies are from May Room . It's very delicious . "

Thank you . If you just came to give me cookies, then you can leave now . I still have a lot of work to get through," Huo Mian suggested that he leave now .
"Mian, when can you stop being hostile towards me?" Huo Siqian said with a bitter smile .
Huo Siqian no longer wore brightly-colored clothing . Now, his attire was more dull, a greyish color . He still looked good in it since he was a handsome man .
Huo Siqian was actually a charismatic person . Otherwise, women like Mo Xue'er and Yan Ruoxi, wouldn't have fallen desperately in love with him .
"Hehe . . . Don't you think it's hilarious that you're asking someone you hurt why she hates you?" Huo Mian scoffed .
"If you're talking about how I made you and Qin Chu separate with each other for four years, then I admit it was my fault . In my defense, I did it for you," Huo Siqian said vexingly .

"You say it's for me but in reality, you hurt me . . . I don't think you can do whatever you want just because you think it's for my good . . . We have too many disagreements and we will never resolve them . I will never forgive you so please don't come running to me all the time confessing how you feel towards me and how you treated me well . I don't have time for that," Huo Mian said . She no longer felt sympathy for Huo Siqian's confessions of love .
She no longer felt nervous, awkward, or anxious . Now, she was simply annoyed by the repetition of the same story over and over again .
"You saw Ian, right, Mian?"
"Yes . "
They both knew what Ian was capable of .
"Then you know how anxious Ian is to find you, right?"
"I know . You can go tell him who I really am . That way, you can score a win for that killer . "
"So you view me like that?" Huo Siqian was a bit frustrated and raised an eyebrow at Huo Mian .
"How else do you think I look at you?"
"If I wanted to tell him, I would have told him a long time ago . Do you really think you could've lived so peacefully all these years without me? Mian, you have to have some conscience . . . Do you know why people at Dong Tao Town don't disclose your identity? It's because your father, Professor Lu, and I have carefully protected you all these years!" he said, getting louder and louder .
There might be too much pressure on Huo Siqian from Ian and now Huo Siqian was very worried about Huo Mian .
It was rare to see him angry at her as he usually looked at her with a tender smile . This was in fact his first time yelling at her . Huo Mian did not expect his actions .
"So do you want me to thank you?" Huo Mian glared at him with an icy look .
