Romance Of Flame And Ice Chapter 192
Advertisement
Yu Yan arrived at the hospital at seven in the morning, as she entered the building, she was shocked to see that everyone was on the move and the ER department which is always filled seemed to be less busy today, she had a confused look as she walked to the office and even the elevators were cleared.
"What in the world is going on, why is everyone running around?" she pondered, just as she arrived at the floor of her office, she greeted everyone she passed by but they didn't respond to her greeting, rather, they were just running or walking fast past her.
She was surer that something is definitely going on, she opened the door to her office and was about to tell them what was happening but she was shocked at the sight of their office, paintings that were never in the office was now hung up on the walls and their office seemed tidier and arranged than it normally is since they always have emergencies.
Moreover, the three of them were dressed too official and posh and they all looked too good today, she tilted her head in doubt as she closed the office door then she dropped her bag on the table and hanged her coat on the hanger and took her seat.
"Can someone tell me what is going on, why is everyone being so unsettled and you guys....look different?". An Ke and Li Chen nodded their head at her question while Xiaomeng nodded her head with a malicious look on her face.
"You mustn't have heard that the CEO Chen and his wife are visiting the hospital," Xiaomeng answered for the first time with an bitchy smile, Yu Yan eyes widened at her answer.
"Didn't you check your emails after work yesterday, they sent a mail yesterday telling everyone to look their best and make sure the hospital is presentable for their arrival?" An Ke questioned with a fed-up look on her face.
Yu Yan never checks her messages not to talk of her mails unless she is expecting something and this is something they all know so they would rather call than text when they have something important to tell.
"I didn't, I was too tired so I just fell asleep, let me see.." she brought out her phone from her bag and checked her email and there it was.
{To...
The CEO and the Madam would be visiting the hospital after their business abroad, so everyone should make sure they look their extreme best and make sure their offices and spaces look presentable for their arrival}

She sighed and cupped her face, she didn't think that she would get into this mess today.
Everyone including the nurses was all dressed luxuriously in expensive jewellery and sophisticated office wear but she only wore a flare purple trouser and a big white shirt with no buttons at the top of the shirt and no jewellery and even her hair is packed into a rough bun.
"I am definitely in trouble" she lamented
"It's alright, you don't look that bad, it is just a visit and they might not notice you," Li Chen comforted with a sigh.
"That's right, the hospital management just told us to look our best, it doesn't mean that the CEO and his wife will care about how we are dressed, this is a hospital, not a company" An Ke added reassuringly, Yu Yan was already getting relieved but Xiaomeng just had to add in...
"That is because you all don't know what the CEO's wife is like, she is my GODMOTHER so I know her best, she hates it when someone is dressed poorly next to her," Xiaomeng commented, maintaining the bitchy smile, if Yu Yan makes a bad impression on Chen Kai's parent then that means she will be losing the game right from the beginning.
"What do you mean?" Li Chen asked
"Before you all started working here, I onCe came to visit my GODMOTHER but just as we were leaving the hospital, she passed by one of the surgeons but she called her back and asked which family she is from but the surgeon said she is not from any conglomerate family and my GODMOTHER fired her i.n.s.t.a.n.t.l.y.," Xiaomeng narrated with a very pleased expression.
"Why would she do that, isn't that against the labour code?" An Ke questioned in surprise.
"Well, she was dressed too simple unlike how someone from a conglomerate family should so she was fired, you guys keep acting like you don't know that only those from conglomerate families can work in this hospital but of course the skills matter, it seems like someone will be getting fired soon," she ended her explanation with her eyes fixed on Yu Yan and a sly tilt on her lips but Yu Yan glared at her angrily, she knew that Xiaomeng was referring to her and she was also scared of what was going to happen.
"tch! what sort of stupid rule is that, we have been dressing casually ever since the start of our job but we have never heard of something that stupid," An Ke snapped, she could see Yu Yan rubbing her finger underneath the table which means she is anxious.

"You all are really pretentious, before we knew Yu Yan in university this is not how you were, you always acted like the wealthy kids you are and An Ke, your mode of dressing is never modest, in fact, you always change your car every single day and you never wore the same cloth twice, you even abandon your cars after using them for about a month or week...." she paused to scoff.
"but after we met Yu Yan in university, you started acting modest and you Li Chen, even in high school, you were known as the worst wealthy playboy ever, you always clubbed and spent money lavishly but after you met Yu Yan, you did the same, are you guys just pretending to be like her or you have really changed,"
"Xiaomeng!" An Ke yelled and slammed the table.
Before they knew Yu Yan in university, they were all best friends since they were from the same circle except for Jia Yu since she didn't go to the same schools as them until uni but ever since Yu Yan joined in uni, they broke up.
"What! am I not telling the truth or am I lying, you are all acting modest just because you don't want her to feel left out," she turned to Yu Yan.
"Do you really think you got into the hospital just because of your skills and your brother's recommendation, compared to everyone here you have the least status, don't think too much of yourself cause Jia Yu also made her parents recommend you, this hospital doesn't look at skills only, you have to get recommend by someone connected to the hospital and your brother...is in no way connected to the hospital," Xiaomeng laid all the facts down looking at Yu Yan straight into hre eyes.
She (Xiaomeng ) wanted to break her confidence so she (Yu Yan) ends up making mistakes in front of his parent, today is the day she will pay her back some of the debts she owes her ( Xiaomeng).
"Yu Yan, don't listen to her, we changed because of you because you are a good influence on us," she turned to Xiaomeng with a glare and demeaning look.
"As for her, she will never understand what friendship is when all she cares about is status," An Ke remarked.
Nurse Song ran into the office without even knocking the door but she could see that she had just entered a very heated situation, however, there was no time to waste.
"They are here!" she announced.
They glared at each other one last time and hurriedly left the office except for Xiaomeng who didn't see the need to be in a hurry.
All the surgeons lined up in front of the hospital after the entrance while the nurses lined up behind them, until a Mercedes-Maybach S600 Pullman Guard pulled up in front of the hospital and the two figures they have been anxiously waiting for gingerly came out of the limousine.
The woman wore a french updo styled hair, wearing a white body hug gown reaching her knee and a long overcoat with a sunglass, she was wearing a 24 gold carat ring and a L'Incomparable gold necklace with a matching gold bracelet.
Elegance and beauty!
She held her black and white purse by her side and walked majestically to the front of the car where she waited for the CEO to come out of the car, he was wearing a white suit but his impression isn't as good as his wife.
When they saw them coming through the door, they quickly looked away and bowed their head, as the couple entered through the revolving door, they all bowed ninety-degrees.
"Welcome!" they all chorused in unison
She removed her sunglasses and smiled elegantly at them, they were once again stunned by her beauty, she had a thick makeup on her face but she was looking quite young for someone who is middle-aged.
"Honey, it really feels good to be back," she remarked, looking into her husband's face who smiled at her.
"You have all worked hard, chief surgeon, why don't you show me around I will like to see the improvements, I am sure you are all busy so I won't hold you anymore," he instructed with a gentlemanly smile.
Yu Yan glanced at the couple, she felt discouraged seeing his mother, she could feel the elegance and the domineering aura the women is emitting, her eyes seemed to be scrutinizing them as she swept her gazes past them, Yu Yan quickly buried her head to make herself insignificant.
