Eldest Young Master? Miss Rich Heiress?
Ye Nuanxi's clear eyes flickered with a desolate smile, then she spoke faintly, "Thank you Dr. Hu, I've already raised the money and will be bringing it over now!"
As she finished speaking, Ye Nuanxi hung up the phone, got dressed, and got out of bed, yet her legs were so weak that even standing up normally was difficult. Her hand instinctively reached out to support herself on the bed, to prevent falling due to her legs giving out as she got out of bed.
However, the moment her hand touched the bed, a sharp pain came from her palm!
She looked at her hand and saw a man's suit cufflink, in rose gold, dazzling and eye-catching, a sight that pierces the eyes!
Ye Nuanxi's heart stuttered, her brows slightly furrowed. This bed had only her... and that completely strange man from last night who had tumbled in the sheets!
A big man's cufflink in rose color—what kind of sissy man would wear that?
However, thinking of the hardship she endured last night, she decisively rejected the word "sissy".
Ye Nuanxi subconsciously picked up the cufflink from the mattress and noticed that the rose cufflink also had a pair of mandarin ducks engraved...
Her heart inexplicably sank, and the phrase "Only Envy the Mandarin Ducks, Not the Immortals" flashed through Ye Nuanxi's mind.
Ye Nuanxi didn't dare to think about what kind of man she was going to have a child for?!
With that thought, her hand involuntarily caressed her flat belly, but none of this was related to her. They were just under a contract; tumble in the sheets, have a child, and then be clear of debt. It was just the ovulation period yesterday, so...
After ten months, she would take her brother abroad for further treatment, and everything that happened would be nothing but a dream!
What she needed to do now was to rush to the hospital to pay the money, to save her brother's life. Only then would there be a chance for further treatment. She wasn't in a position to lament the fate of the world and certainly had no time to grieve for the passing seasons.
Ye Nuanxi didn't pay any more attention to that rose gold cufflink with the mandarin ducks. In a hurry, she found some clothes in the closet and rushed directly to the hospital!
But unexpectedly, when she went downstairs, walked to the roadside, and reached out to hail a cab, what appeared before her was a person, not a vehicle!
"Ye Nuanxi, where have you been fooling around these past few days without coming home?!"
The next moment, Ye Qianqian's bright and flamboyant face appeared before her, blocking her path arrogantly, "You better behave yourself. If you cause any trouble again and Long Brother loses interest in you, see what money you'll have to save your half-dead brother lying in bed!"
"Get out of the way!"
Ye Nuanxi's clear, sharp eyes swept over her faintly as she spoke coldly, "A good dog doesn't stand in the way; I don't have time to waste words with you!"
A good dog doesn't stand in the way?
"How dare you call me a dog?!"
Ye Qianqian's face changed abruptly, "Ye Nuanxi, if you have the guts, say it again. The mistress of the Ye family is my mother now, not your mother who died more than a decade ago. I am the legitimate daughter of the Ye family, while you are just... just..."
"I have never heard of a mistress' daughter calling herself legitimate before!"
Ye Nuanxi looked at her face, furious and unable to say a reasoned word, and let out a sarcastic retort, "Ye Qianqian, in ancient times, that person you call the mistress of the Ye family could at best be a concubine, and you, at most, a child born out of wedlock. But in today's world, she doesn't even have the status of a concubine, just a universally scorned mistress! And you are the offspring of a mistress!"
"If you think being a mistress's child is legitimate, then go ahead, hold a press conference and tell the whole of Rongcheng that you, Ye Qianqian, even as the daughter of a mistress, are the legitimate daughter of the Ye family. Do you dare?"
