Chapter 124 Xinyou gave herself away (3)
Kevin Ye was at home watching TV when he received a message. He took out his cell phone and read the message, which read: Kerry has arrived at the hospital. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Seeing this message, Kevin laughed and put away his phone and continued watching TV. When he talked to Venus on the phone last night, he knew that she was in the hospital, and his brother also happened to be there.
To take care of Xinyou's father, Venus had rented two rooms for her and Xinyou’s mother at the hotel across the street from the hospital last night. Venus was relieved to know that Xinyou’s father was in stable condition in the morning.
Since she was familiar with the vicinity of the hospital, she went to fetch food for them from the hospital canteen. After they ate, she went to fetch water for them. Only what she didn't expect was to run into Kerry in front of the hospital room after fetching water.
"What are you doing here?" Venus's brow furrowed.
Kerry noticed the people in the ward. Henry Zhang had investigated that she had nothing to do with the old couple. But she not only paid their medical bills, but she took care of them all night.
"Who are they?" Kerry asked.
Venus just ignored him and carried the hot water into the house.
"Mr. Qiao, it's time to take the medicine." she said softly.
Although Venus wasn't going to pay any attention to Kerry, the old couple in the room couldn't ignore him. Xinyou’s father, who was lying on the bed, said to his wife, "You go invite him to come in."
"Please come in." Xinyou’s mother looked at the well-groomed Kerry and said.
Kerry entered the room, watched the couple, and then looked at Venus.
Sensing some awkwardness between them, Venus introduced Kerry to them, "This is my boss Kerry Ye. He knows I’m in the hospital, so he comes here."
Hearing Venus's introduction, they didn't doubt it. Xinyou’s father said, "Hello, Mr. Ye, nice to meet you.
So they talked together for a while. Xinyou’s father then told Kerry that they came to the city to find their daughter but he had suffered a heart attack and was saved by Venus. He expressed his gratitude for Venus.
They complimented Venus so that she would impress Kerry. Even though Venus knew it was futile for them to do so, she was still touched by their kindness.
Kerry listened quietly. He had mixed emotions. His seemed to have changed his views about Venus now.
The couple kept talking while Kerry remained silent.
"You can tell me her name and I can help you find her." He said suddenly.
Kerry was actually a little unsure of what they had said. He had read the recruitment documents at the time and there was no staff of his company from rural areas. He was very suspicious of the two.
"I have found my daughter. We've seen her too." the old man said.
After listening to his words, Kerry's confusion deepened. If he had found his daughter, why didn't she come to take care of him, but Venus took care of him?
"Doesn't she know you're in the hospital? You tell me her name and I'll tell her about it." said Kerry.
Hearing Kerry's words, Xinyou’s father sighed deeply.
"My daughter's name is Xinyou Qiao. I didn't want her to worry about me, so I didn’t tell her my illness."
Xinyou’s father said a lot, but Kerry didn't pay attention to what he said. He only heard the name- Xinyou Qiao.
Kerry thought he had misheard, and asked again, "Did you say your daughter's name is Xinyou Qiao?"
Xinyou’s father didn't understand what he meant, and said with great certainty, "That's right."
Kerry thought back over it. He was sure there was only one woman named Xinyou Qiao in his company. He remembered that Xinyou had mentioned that she had a father who was a professor in university and a stepmother who had kicked her out of home”.
Venus was reluctant to say more and pretended not to notice Kerry's look. "I'm going downstairs to get some supplies. If there is something wrong, call the doctor." she said to the old couple.
