Reborn in 1979: I Raised a Fortune with Four Daughters

Chapter 199 Quality Stocks

"Mr. Zhao, Mr. Zhou, how about this, please take me to the entrance of Shanghai People's Hospital first. I want to visit my younger sister, and then I'll take a taxi to 'Zhao's Kitchen' to meet you."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuan turned to look at Zhou Jiefang and smiled slightly:

"Jiefang, why don't we go up and see Xiaomei together? After all, Wen's Xiaomei is our Xiaomei too!"

After saying that, he turned to Zhou Jiefang and began to instruct him:

"Jiefang, hurry up and buy some things that Wen Yunfang likes to take over. We can't come empty-handed today. From now on, she's considered our little sister!"

"Okay, Mr. Zhao."

Zhou Jiefang quickly responded, then gently pushed open the car door and jumped out of the car with nimble movements.

At this moment, Zhao Yuan turned to look at Wen Haifeng beside him, a meaningful smile appearing on his face:

"President Wen, you have no idea, Zhou Jiefang is definitely a 'high-potential stock'! Not only is he outstanding at work, but he's also honest, trustworthy, and reliable. Most importantly, such an excellent young man has never been in a relationship! Before, it was because of circumstances; he's been busy following me around, and hasn't had time to date at all. If they're interested in each other, Zhou Jiefang would be a really good candidate for a sister-in-law!"

Hearing this, Wen Haifeng couldn't help but laugh and quickly said:

"In that case, Mr. Zhao, I'd like to trouble you to be a helpful matchmaker and set us up."

Zhao Yuan waved his hand and continued to respond with a smile:

"Oh dear, if you ask me, you don't need me to play matchmaker. Just don't always look at their interactions with such suspicion, and don't always think that every man who gets close to your sister is a treacherous wolf. In my opinion, there seems to be something between them!"

Wen Haifeng nodded slightly, scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, and explained with a smile:

"Hehe, Mr. Zhao, you're right. Actually, when I first walked into the ward that day, I saw Mr. Zhou feeding my sister water. I did feel a little uncomfortable at the time, and I was worried that he might have ulterior motives. But that's because I don't know Mr. Zhou well enough, which is why I had such a misunderstanding."

Just as the two were talking, Zhou Jiefang returned in a flurry, carrying a large pile of things in his hands.

"Jiefang, what did you buy? Why do you even have cups and spoons?"

Zhao Yuan asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jiefang's face flushed bright red, like a ripe apple. He scratched his head somewhat awkwardly and stammered an explanation:

"Um... I noticed yesterday that Yunfang didn't seem to have a special water cup, and I was worried you hadn't prepared one for her, so I bought one. If she doesn't need it, I can take it home and use it myself!"

Upon hearing his words, Zhao Yuan and Wen Haifeng exchanged a knowing glance, then smiled in unison. The group then slowly made their way to Wen Yunfang's ward on the second floor.

Zhou Jiefang took the lead and walked at the front, but when they arrived at the door of the ward, he suddenly stopped and seemed hesitant.

At this moment, Wen Haifeng, who was following behind, smiled and stepped forward, gently pushing open the door.

Upon entering the ward, everyone found that Wen Yunfang was lying alone and quietly on the bed.

"Yunfang, why are you here all alone? Where's your sister-in-law?"

Wen Haifeng inquired with concern.

Wen Yunfang turned her head slightly and looked at her brother as she answered:

“I told her to go back first. She needs to pick up her nephew and will come back after she’s taken care of things at home.”

"President Zhao, President Zhou, you've arrived! Please have a seat!"

Wen Yunfang said enthusiastically, but after glancing around the ward, she couldn't help but look embarrassed, then smiled and explained:

"Oh dear, look at my brain, I'm so confused! This is a hospital after all, the conditions are limited, there's only this one chair."

Zhao Yuan smiled and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind, and asked with concern:

"Ms. Wen, how are you feeling today? You look much better."

Wen Yunfang smiled and nodded gently in reply:

"Yes, thanks to everyone, I'm feeling much better today, and I can even get out of bed and walk around for a little while."

Hearing this, Zhao Yuan smiled and said with satisfaction:

"That's wonderful! It means your body is recovering rapidly! I believe you'll be fully recovered and discharged from the hospital soon."

At this moment, Zhao Yuan turned to look at Zhou Jiefang, who was standing to the side, and said with a smile:

"Jiefang, you stay here and continue to take care of Miss Wen. You can go back to the company after her sister-in-law arrives. I still have some things to discuss with President Wen."

After hearing this, Zhou Jiefang hesitated for a moment, and stammered in response:

"This...this isn't a good idea, isn't it going to interfere with my work too much..."

Zhao Yuan patted him on the shoulder and comforted him:

"It's alright, Jiefang. Taking care of your little sister is the most important thing right now. Besides, we can deal with our work after you get back. There's no rush."

Then, Zhao Yuan turned his gaze to Wen Haifeng and asked:

"President Wen, what do you think of this arrangement?"

Wen Haifeng quickly smiled and nodded in response:

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Zhou. I'm so sorry to cause you trouble. I'll have my wife come over as soon as possible to take over for you."

Zhou Jiefang turned his head slightly to look at Wen Yunfang. He saw that her originally fair face was now as red as a ripe apple, and she kept her head down, as if she dared not meet his gaze.

At this moment, Zhao Yuan, who was standing to the side, asked:

"Yunfang, did the doctor tell you whether you can eat normally today?"

Hearing this, Wen Yunfang raised her head, but her eyes remained somewhat evasive, and she replied in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz:

"The doctor said... I can only have plain porridge today."

"Oh, I see. Okay, I understand. Alright, let's go, Mr. Wen."

After Zhao Yuan finished speaking, he and Wen Haifeng walked out of the ward together and gently closed the door behind them.

As their footsteps faded into the distance and disappeared, the entire ward fell silent instantly, as if even the air itself had frozen.

At this moment, only Wen Yunfang and Zhou Jiefang remained in the ward.

After a moment of silence, Wen Yunfang broke the awkward silence first, speaking softly:
