Chapter 30: Mu Chuang Gets Scolded by the Doctor

But this wasn’t what he needed to be concerned about, because he was no longer considering this woman. Who she was involved with had nothing to do with him anymore.

“Serves her right,” Mu Chuang cursed inwardly. Facing the woman’s tearful appearance, he didn’t react at all.

Liang Ting, however, wanted to take the opportunity to get close.

Just then, the doctor who had been treating Lin Xi appeared in the hallway and beckoned to Mu Chuang, “Come over here, I want to say a few words to you.”

Mu Chuang strode over, and then the doctor led him into an empty room and began questioning him about his specific relationship with Lin Xi, and discussing the matter of medical expenses.

“Is there even a need to say it? Treat him however you need to treat him. You don’t have to worry about the money. You won’t be shorted a single penny,” Mu Chuang said, appearing impatient and not very tactful, which made the doctor form a negative opinion of him.

“It’s not my place to say this, young man, but if you’re really interested in this aspect, then you should cherish this boy. In your circle, someone like this is hard to come by. When you do things, be considerate, don’t ruin him in a few tries, or you’ll regret it when it’s too late.”

“If you ruin it yourself, you should be responsible. Looking at you, it seems like you’re not even willing?” The doctor said, the last sentence with a look of contempt on his face, which almost made Mu Chuang lose control of his anger.

But in the end, he said nothing, only urging the doctor to quickly write the prescription so he could go pay the fees.

Seeing that there were no problems with the medical expenses, and having said what he needed to say, the doctor didn’t bother with him any further and turned back to his office.

In a certain corner, a pair of eyes was closely watching their movements. From seeing the department the doctor belonged to, to Mu Chuang going to pay the fees, this woman suddenly felt like she had discovered a huge secret.

“Damn it, I put in so much effort, and not only did I not get any benefit, but I ended up helping someone else. What kind of logic is this?!” Liang Ting cursed inwardly, her high heels hitting the ground so hard she almost twisted her ankle.

She quickly steadied herself against the wall, her mind churning for a long time before she resentfully returned to Zhang Qingyang’s hospital room.

Afterwards, Zhang Qingyang’s wife came to the door and gave Liang Ting a thorough beating, and filed for divorce from Zhang Qingyang.

Zhang Qingyang readily agreed, thinking he could have a good time with Liang Ting, but who knew that after the woman couldn’t get Mu Chuang, he lost his value to her, and in the end, he was left with a broken family and nothing to show for it.

To get revenge on Liang Ting, Zhang Qingyang told Mu Chuang the purpose of her instructing him to encourage him to drink that night, causing Mu Chuang to completely fall out with her, and fine her for even the smallest things, making the woman work all day with her nerves on edge.

Lin Xi stayed in the hospital for a total of three days, and then returned to the factory and voluntarily moved into the regular employee dormitories.

Because of this change, many people began to gossip in secret, and then someone, from who knows where, got the news, generally understanding what had happened between him and Mu Chuang, and everywhere was filled with gossip in secret.

This matter naturally reached Fu Xiaoling’s ears, instantly making her face turn pale with anger.

Always acting aloof, she actually took the initiative to ask Mu Chuang out that evening, not for anything else, but to find out the truth.

She pretended to go out for some fresh air and asked Mu Chuang to accompany her for a walk.

As the two walked down the street, she began to probe indirectly.

“Brother Chuang, what’s wrong with you and Lin Xi? Why didn’t you let him continue living at your place?” She said this while staring unblinkingly at Mu Chuang’s face, afraid of missing any expression on his face.

As a company manager, Mu Chuang naturally couldn’t hear the gossip from below, and no one dared to talk to him about it in person. Facing Fu Xiaoling’s question, he only took it as a normal question.

“He’s afraid of affecting the relationship between me and you, so he moved out,” Mu Chuang replied, not without trying to create a positive image of Lin Xi, making Fu Xiaoling, who had heard some gossip, even more uncomfortable.

“Is that so?” She suppressed her anger and retorted, “Why did I hear that he had a ‘conflict’ with you?”

She deliberately left a little room for maneuver, afraid that the man she had finally won over after defeating those two women would fly away again.

Mu Chuang stopped walking and turned to look at her, a hint of guilt in his eyes, “Who told you that?”

Fu Xiaoling also stopped walking, her mind quickly flashing through several excuses, and finally answering, “I just heard some employees gossiping during dinner. I don’t know those people.”

Mu Chuang narrowed his eyes, as if very interested in this question, and pressed, “What did they say?”

Fu Xiaoling thought for a moment, and seeing that the conversation had reached this point, she didn’t plan to hold back any longer, “They said you got drunk and that kind of thing happened with him…”

“Nonsense!” Mu Chuang immediately denied it. He had originally planned to help Lin Xi hide it, but now it seemed he couldn’t hide it. He had no choice but to try to say it in the best possible way to benefit himself, “He has that kind of inclination, but I’m not that kind of person. Letting him go to squeeze into the dormitory with others is also the main reason.”

“I haven’t done anything to him. Those people are purely talking nonsense and can’t stand seeing others do well, especially you. Have you forgotten your previous two rivals? Maybe they made it up. Don’t fall into their trap,” he said without changing his expression, his logic clear, which actually made Fu Xiaoling believe him.

Because that kind of thing, apart from the two people involved, no third person can be sure.

Even if Liang Ting had a 90% suspicion, and firmly believed it herself, but without seeing it with her own eyes or having video evidence, saying it wouldn’t be convincing and would still make people doubt it.

Therefore, it was expected that Fu Xiaoling believed Mu Chuang’s words. At the same time, it also gave her a definite answer, that is, Lin Xi is gay, and just saying that would be enough to make him unable to gain a foothold in the factory.

But Mu Chuang, because of Fu Xiaoling’s question, began to suspect Lin Xi, suspecting that he had said something to Fu Xiaoling, leading this woman to come and find out the truth from him.

That day, after getting off the night shift, he went to make trouble for Lin Xi with a belly full of anger.

At this time, Lin Xi was standing in front of a tricycle selling steamed buns and mantou at the factory gate, preparing to buy something for a midnight snack.

He was at the age when his body was growing. He had eaten dinner at 6 pm, and by 10 pm he was already hungry. The factory only provided three meals a day and didn’t include midnight snacks, so if he wanted to eat something at night, he had to pay for it himself.

He touched his thin wallet and used his money very sparingly. He had originally planned to take out all the money he had and give it to Mu Chuang as payment for the living expenses he had eaten, but thinking that if he took it out, he would have no place to borrow it, and he would have to go hungry these days, he temporarily dismissed the idea and decided to wait until he received his salary to return the money for the few sets of clothes Mu Chuang had bought him.

Before, when Mu Chuang was good to him, he was willing to eat whatever he bought for him, and he accepted it peacefully. But now that their relationship had become like this, he wanted to pay him back and didn’t want to owe anyone anything.
