After Ella came in, she held a pre-prepared contract in her hand. She spread it out on the table and briefly explained a few points to Zhuang Ling. Then she asked Zhuang Ling to read it himself and if he had any questions, he could ask her. If everything was fine, he could sign it.
Zhuang Ling picked up the contract and, without even looking, signed his own name on it.
This surprised Ella so much that her eyes widened. "Mr. Zhuang, aren't you going to read it?" You see, in the past, when Mr. Zhuang had to sign contracts, especially the ones related to resources provided by the company, he would meticulously read them over and over again. It seemed as if he was afraid that his employer would deceive him.
Ella used to really look down on his behavior.
Why did you suddenly change your attitude today?
I only heard Zhuang Ling's laughter as he said, "How could I not believe in my own company? Mr. Shu, rest assured, I will definitely seize the opportunity that the company has given me and I won't let you down." At this moment, he understood that since he couldn't go back to the beginning, he should start from the most basic superior-subordinate relationship.
"En." Shu Boheng wearily waved his hand, gesturing for him to leave. However, after waiting for a long time, there was no response at all. With a puzzled expression, Shu Boheng opened his eyes and saw Zhuang Ling still standing beside the sofa, but Ella was nowhere to be found.
"You're done, you can leave now."
"President Shu, let me escort you to the rest lounge first and then we can proceed."
"If you have the time, you might as well think about how to respond to this matter. This incident can also be considered to have been caused by me, and I will issue a statement later."
"No need, I've already made all the arrangements."
"Have you made all the arrangements?" Shu Boheng repeated word by word, emphasizing each syllable.
Hmm. It's just a small gesture. But looking at your expression, it seems like you're almost as gloomy as a wall. I promise you, during this time, I will be honest and work hard on the filming. In return, you promise me that once this matter is resolved, you will take a good break and take care of your health, while also getting a check-up done.
Shu Boheng was speechless. Since when did he have to agree to such a boring matter? And to exchange it for something of equal value, this was clearly a forced trade. It was in line with Zhuang Ling's usual temperament.
Zhuang Ling doesn't care about Shu Boheng's frustrations. For him, the most important thing now is this person's health, preferably not repeating the mistakes of his past life.
In his previous life, when Shu Boheng was diagnosed with a heart problem, it was basically incurable. He could only live day by day, and unfortunately, even during his last few days, he was still mentally and physically exhausted. Not to mention receiving any effective treatment, even taking a moment to rest was a luxury.
It can be said that Zhuang Ling's death was just the last straw that broke the camel's back. At that time, Shu Boheng truly had, not many days left...
But he managed to keep it a secret so tightly that even his siblings, whom he spent every day with, didn't notice anything wrong with him. They still regarded him as the protective older brother who would shelter them from any storm. Meanwhile, their irresponsible parents who were overseas didn't even make it back in time to see him one last time.
Although it's hard to admit, Zhuang Ling couldn't deny that she played a role as an "accomplice" in all this. After all, if it weren't for her constantly provoking him and making him lose his temper, Shu Boheng's health wouldn't have deteriorated so severely.
As soon as Zhuang Ling thought of this, she felt a deep sense of sadness. When she looked at Shu Boheng, a feeling of pity and guilt, which she had not even noticed herself, emerged. It made Shu Boheng feel a tingling sensation on his scalp.
"I'll support you." Zhuang Ling choked up as he finished saying these words, then he stooped down and lifted Shu Boheng's arm onto his own shoulder, helping him up.
Shu Boheng originally couldn't get up on his own. He relied on Zhuang Ling to support most of his body weight. However, after recovering from the dizziness and palpitations, he gently pushed Zhuang Ling away and insisted on walking on his own.
Zhuang Ling effortlessly took control of him with just one sentence. He said, "Could it be that you still want me to hold you?"
......
Zhuang Ling finally managed to half-support, half-carry the person into the rest area. He laid him on the only bed and carefully covered him with a blanket, making sure it reached his abdomen. Then, he sat by the bedside, intending to wait until he fell asleep before leaving.
Shu Boheng had initially wanted to struggle a bit longer, but perhaps his body was truly too weak. Shortly after his head touched the pillow, he unexpectedly fell into a light sleep.
