Xing Yixiao's expression was still dark. "This is why I can't understand. Why do you have to transfer the money in your left pocket to your right pocket? What's the point? Besides, your father said that he would give you 80,000 yuan. What if he doesn't give it to you? Can't your family understand me? Do you have to force me to this end?"
He looked at the thin woman beside him. Her face was already shriveled and sunken. She was so thin because of her pregnancy at such a young age, which made him frown. Wasn't she just pregnant? She stayed at home every day and did nothing. Why didn't she dress up properly? She was so slovenly. Now, when he looked at her face, he didn't even have the most basic physical desire.
"Also, this is not a big deal. Why are you complaining to Ming Yue so easily? Can she provide you with any substantial help? Can she give you money to spend or help you raise your child? Are you going to live with her or with me? Look at you now. Other than me, who doesn't despise you and is willing to raise you, who else would want you? You don't have to do anything at home every day now. Look at me, I'm as tired as a dog when I work outside. Can you not make my life so hard?"
Wenxin did not dare to raise her head. She looked at herself in the rearview mirror from the corner of her eye. Was she really so ugly that it was disgusting?
…
At nine o'clock in the evening, in a bar located in the most prosperous business district in the center of the Capital, the sign 'Wake Up Time' was brightly lit. In the private room, colorful lights flickered. There were a few men sitting on the luxurious leather sofa. Two of them were hugging beautiful women in skimpy clothes, and one was singing a heart-wrenching love song with a microphone. Liu Jingxing sat at the side with a cigarette in his mouth. His eyes were slightly narrowed and dark.
He recalled the phone call that his good friend Zheng Ziheng had given him when he left the company. "Do you still remember the old lady with a heart disease that I told you about? She was transferred to the VIP ward today, and there were four nurses who took care of her 24 hours a day. The surgery fees were also paid in advance. I heard from them that the richest Liu family in the capital arranged the money and the ward for her. I think there are many people with the surname Liu in the capital, but your family might be the only one who can be called the richest. Why? Did your family help arrange it? Is it someone you know?"
Liu Jingxing frowned. An old granny with a heart disease? That country bumpkin's grandmother also had this illness. He asked the other party, "Do you know her granddaughter's name?"
"I know that girl's name is Ming Yue. When she said it, I thought that this name was quite special, so it left a deep impression on me. Moreover, she's really just like her name. She looks like a moon princess. She's clean and beautiful, and she speaks gently. She's my type. I was still thinking of getting to know her after her grandmother's surgery."
When Liu Jingxing heard the name of that country bumpkin from his good friend, he was stunned on the spot for once. Zheng Ziheng was his good friend. He was an outgoing person who loved to talk and made a lot of noise. Probably since this spring, he had heard his good friend mention intermittently that among the patients he was in charge of,there was an old granny and granddaughter who relied on each other. He said that his granddaughter stayed in the hospital almost every day and he would often bump into her hiding in the corridor and crying secretly. Some of the other patients' family members advised her that at her grandmother's age, it was meaningless to waste a large sum of money to cure her. Moreover, it was not so easy to find a matching heart. It was better to bring the old woman home early and let her eat and drink happily until the last days of her life.
"However, no matter how others persuaded her, she stayed silent and never showed any intention of giving up. She said that she was raised by her grandmother since she was young. Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, she wouldn't give up. That girl was young, but she didn't mind being dirty or tired. She took care of the old lady by herself, bathed the old lady, and fed her. She really took good care of the old lady."
At that time, he only felt that this girl was indeed quite filial. She indeed did not have it easy. He thought about how he had grown up with his grandma. If he had encountered the same difficulties, he would probably have made the same choice as that girl. He had also thought that if that old lady was lucky enough to find a matching heart, he could bear the cost of the surgery for them. A million yuan was neither too much nor too little, but to him, it was just the money for a car.
