Hu Lei remained in the hospital for four more days for further observation. During that period, she got to know her brother a little more. Though he was young, his mind was quick, and she found him to be an interesting little man.

She also had Zhong Feng bring her laptop to her even though he was reluctant to do so. In his opinion, she should have been focusing on recovery. Hu Lei laughed at him when he expressed this thought. How was she supposed to sit around doing nothing?

More importantly, she did not want to take a break from her work. Her mind was functioning at an exceptional rate. Though it might be a symptom of a disease, she felt that she might as well take advantage it.

Who knew whether she would continue functioning normally or her mind would experience gradual deterioration?

Hu Lei had always been a realist. If she really developed a mental disorder, she would not give up on treatment. After all, she wanted to live a long life and be happy with Zhong Feng for as long as possible. However, that did not mean that she did not understand that there was a possibility that she could develop a serious condition and even fail to recover.

So, she needed to squeeze the last drop of her potential while she still could in case the worst case scenario came to pass. At the top of her bucket list was becoming a popular and beloved author once again.

She intended to stage her grand comeback as soon as possible. If she did not end up well, at least her name would still be remembered.

On the day of her hospital discharge, Assistant Chen came to pick her up. Zhong Feng had an important meeting so he could not be there in person. Therefore, he sent his most trusted subordinate. Hu Lei greeted the ever professional man with a smile and waved at Little FaiFai before getting into the vehicle.

She immediately continued working because she did not want to lose her flow. She only paused for a moment to respond to a text message from Housekeeper Li. As she put her phone away, her lips stretched evilly. When Assistant Chen saw her little smile, he felt a cold shiver. It reminded him of his boss' face when he had a plot brewing.

"Miss Hu, welcome back." Housekeeper Li was waiting with the always silent chef at the entrance.

Hu Lei felt awkward about the reception, but she was also touched.

"Thank you. I am glad to be back."

"You don't know how worried we all were." Housekeeper Lei added.

Actually, he wanted to confess that they all missed her because of their master's mood during her absence. They had to trend softly around him. His aura of gloom had been a little too much for them. One of the cleaners had been so nervous that she had spilt water on important documents when cleaning his desk.

It had only through the intervention of Housekeeper Li that she had kept a job with only a penalty. In truth, the big boss was worse than he had been before Hu Lei had come to the house. At least during those days, he only stayed at the villa occasionally.

"Thank you. I am sorry for worrying you all."

"What would you like to eat today? Chef has been waiting all day to ask you." Housekeeper Li spoke.

Hu Lei turned a doubtful eye on the silent man. The man nodded with bright eyes. It seemed that he really was waiting to ask. Unfortunately for him, she did not know food. For a well-travelled person, her knowledge on cuisine was severely limited.

She dug into her pocket and took out a paper that Doctor Shui had given her before she left the hospital and handed it to the chef. He had written the types of food which were essential for her recovery. Even though she did not like most of the stuff there, she intended to be committed to eating more.

At worst, she could treat the meals as she had the dried rations or other unpleasant things she had eaten in the strange corners of the globe.

After the chef left, Housekeeper Li gave Hu Lei a meaningful look.

"So, how was it?" She asked.

"I let her in." He responded.

"Excellent, where are they now?" She inquired.

"They headed out to the back garden." He paused. "Why are you letting a stranger onto the property?"

Housekeeper Li was quite curious. It did not seem like a prudent thing to do, especially when it was that person.

"I have been a little bored. Plus this mystery was taking too long. It was losing its entertainment value." She smiled, revealing little tiger teeth.

With that, she began walking to her library. Housekeeper Li was stunned for a moment by how cute she looked. It took a moment for him to shake the spell.

In another part of the city, a cold man seated behind a large desk, looking at his computer screen, tightened his fists in a fit of jealousy. How dare she saw that type of smile to someone who was not him?

He stood up unceremoniously and left the office. When his secretaries saw him walking to the elevator, they immediately rushed to stop him. He had an important meeting in a few minutes. That appointment had been in the books for quite some time.

"I will let you take care of it." He said before stepping into the lift.

The two people looked at each other in puzzlement and then horror. Unlike most presidents, Zhong Feng did not demand much from them. He was too diligent and efficient. One could even call him obsessive about his work.

Therefore, they had always enjoyed a stable work life, even though their boss was often gloomy and unfriendly. However, lately, he had become a little strange. In the past month, he had missed work for numerous days, ignored meetings and skipped appointments.

"What do you think is wrong with the boss? Do you think he has a secret wife?" One of them spoke in a low voice, looking thoughtful.

"If you have time to think about this type of nonsense, you should think about solving the issue with this meeting." The other rebuked.
