Chapter 3 Chapter 3

Zhao Feng was very surprised when he received the call from Bai Ruoruo, because he had no impression of this former youngest daughter of Mr. Bai. The only thing they had in common was the money that was regularly transferred to the hospital every month.

The last time Zhang Qin came to him to ask about the hospital fees and salary, he had already explained it very clearly, and very kindly told Bai Minmin about it and asked her to solve it. Unexpectedly, she came to him again this time.

He used to be with Mr. Bai all year round, and both Mr. Bai and his wife rarely mentioned their little daughter.

So Zhao Feng never took this sickly person seriously.

After all, the eldest daughter whom President Bai has carefully taught has such a temper, so how can we expect the younger daughter to be any stronger?

Indeed, as soon as the call was connected, a timid and weak voice came from the other end: "Hello, is this Assistant Zhao?"

You can tell from the moment you hear her that she is a naive little girl.

Although the voice was pleasant, the volume was low, like a cat's claw scratching at one's heart. However, Zhao Feng didn't consider himself a voice control person. To be more precise, he didn't consider himself a control person at all. He only cared about money and wanted to stand out from the crowd.

So Zhao Feng felt annoyed when he heard this. He didn't like dealing with this kind of patient. After all, if he said something too harsh, the patient might even be blamed on him if he died. But he was not willing to force himself to say nice things and coax this young lady.

Everyone's destiny is different. After all his years of hard work, he could only live a decent life, buying a small house in a nice location and a car that looked quite impressive. But some people were born with everything. It was really unfair.

But it’s okay, these two pampered little princesses of the Bai family will soon be born into the mortal world.

Thinking of this, Zhao Feng smiled. He was curious whether people could still maintain such innocence when they needed to make a living on their own.

This is what he thought of Bai Minmin, and he was also curious about the Second Miss Bai, whom he had never met.

"It's me, Miss Bai. What's the matter? I have already resigned from Bai Group." So those who know what's good for you would stop bothering him.

"Mr. Zhao, I'd like to know the specific status of my father's assets. I believe no one knows this better than you. If you are willing, could you please meet and discuss it?"

Zhao Feng sneered, "Miss Bai, why do you think I would help you?"

If Bai Ruoruo had ever pressured him by using the favor she had received from President Bai, or had revealed her bargaining chips, he would never have stepped on her face like that.

Unfortunately, those who are too naive will always be beaten by society. Not to mention that the few words that Miss Bai Er said seemed to have been spoken with great courage.

This is a big taboo in negotiations.

It’s true that he wanted to take revenge on Bai Yougen. Compared to the “noble” Bai Minmin, it seems that this Second Miss Bai is not completely without merit.

But it’s still early now, and the naive little princess must first face reality.

As for what to do if he still couldn't recognize him, he didn't mind finding another way to retaliate against Bai Yougen. After all, he had more than one trick up his sleeve back then.

"I'm sorry, I was inconsiderate and disturbed Mr. Zhao... But I think it will only benefit Mr. Zhao if he helps me."

Ruo Ruo hadn't expected her father's former secretary to be so ruthless. Having spent so long away from social interaction, she wasn't comfortable speaking to people who were unkind to her. Even a single harsh remark could make her retreat. But to ensure her own survival, she had no choice but to make plans.

"No harm, no gain?" Zhao Feng laughed, then suddenly changed his mind. "But since Second Miss Bai wants it, I'll send you some of Miss Bai's signed contracts."

Well, I just don't know if I can understand it. I don't know if I will get sick if I understand it. I don't know if the already sickly young lady can withstand the blow.

Zhao Feng is neither soft-hearted nor guilty. He always likes to see those who are high and mighty fall into the mortal world.

"Thank you..." Ruoruo's happy voice came, and just hearing the voice seemed to make people feel sweet in their hearts.

Zhao Feng frowned. Seeing the other person so happy only made him feel like he had lost money. "No thanks. I'll charge you if you need me next time. I'm always happy to help if the compensation is sufficient."

Ruo Ruo didn't listen carefully to what he said next. She was just happy that she had successfully accomplished something, and then began to work hard to check the contract pictures sent by Zhao Feng.

This was the first time he had spoken so much to anyone other than Aunt Qin since her condition gradually worsened, and it was quite a sense of accomplishment.

However, after reading those contracts, Ruo Ruo couldn't be happy, because she was probably sure that the plot she saw in the dream was not her delusion.

The last bit of hope in her heart was shattered. She wanted to live and try her best to live.

.

Bai Minmin came to the hospital again.

Ever since she told Ruoruo that her parents had passed away, she seemed to have taken a liking to the hospital.

There have been more patients coming to the hospital one after another in the past two days than in the past ten years.

However, she was not allowed to enter the ward. Zhang Qin spoke politely, but there was a sting in her politeness: "I'm sorry, I'm also concerned about Ruoruo's health. After all, Ruoruo's health is not good now. Seeing Miss Bai might make her sad again..."

Bai Minmin began to sob, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

She had come several times and had said "I'm sorry" so many times that Zhang Qin couldn't even count them. Her ears were almost callused, but she had never asked how Ruoru was doing.

Not to mention she cares about anything else.

Miss Bai seems to only be able to say "I'm sorry", like a half-broken tape recorder.

She didn't even have the real desire to enter the ward. Every day was like punching a clock in, coming and going.

Zhang Qin was very annoyed with her, but she kept thinking that Ruoruo would still have to rely on this sister in the future, so she could only try to be patient.

But this was the first time Zhang Qin had met such a person. She felt from the bottom of her heart that Bai Minmin was unreliable, so she could only start calculating how much savings she had left.

Not only that, she also had other ideas - to let Bai Minmin pay more for the hospitalization and get more money from her.

Zhang Qin didn't know that Bai Minmin had been cheated out of everything. She still thought that Ruoruo hadn't even fought for the family property, so it wasn't too much to ask Bai Minmin to pay more for the hospitalization.

If it weren't for Ruoruo's poor health... Zhang Qin couldn't bear to think about it any further; it would ache in her heart. What a wonderful child!

She would not let Ruoruo worry about these trivial matters. She had to take advantage of the fact that Bai Minmin was easy to talk to and ask for more money. When she could no longer be relied upon, she would still have some money for her retirement. No matter how big the hole in this hospital was, she would have to find a way to fill it.

Ruoruo can always be cured! The doctor doesn't believe this, Bai's parents don't believe it, Bai Minmin doesn't believe it, but Zhang Qin firmly believes it.

Someone has to hold on to the burning hope.

"Miss Bai, I'm not being realistic, but the hospital is not a place like other places. It doesn't respect social conventions. Ruoruo's daily hospitalization fees and medicine costs are not a small amount, not to mention the occasional checkup fees. These are all indispensable. Here are this month's bills. Miss Bai, please take a look. When will you have time to pay more?"

Bai Minmin took the receipt and nodded stiffly, "Okay, I understand... Wait a couple of days..."

Zhang Qin became even more anxious when she saw that she was so troubled by such a small amount of money. She even wanted to wait for two more days. This was too stingy!

"And my nursing fees, Miss Bai. I need to eat, too. Can you give me the rest when you have time?"

Zhang Qin cursed Bai Minmin to death in her heart. She inherited such a huge fortune, but Ruoruo got none. She was even hesitant to pay the hospital bills. It was too much, really too much!

She deliberately asked Bai Minmin for money in a dialect with an accent, just to sound more sarcastic.

Look at her and Ruoruo, an old country woman and a sickly little girl, how pitiful they are. If he still owes them money, he would be such a loser!

This is what Zhang Qin thought in her heart, but she would not say it out loud for the time being.

When she turned around and entered the ward, Zhang Qin had a completely different look on her face. She looked incredibly gentle and kind.

No one could be unkind to Ruoruo, let alone Zhang Qin who had felt sorry for Ruoruo from the very beginning.

Ruoruo was lying on the bed and could not hear clearly the conversation outside. The walls were soundproofed so she could only hear people talking.

"Aunt Qin, who is that?"

Zhang Qin didn't lie to her. "She's your sister. She's come here many times these days, but I took it upon myself not to invite her in. If Ruoruo wants to see me next time, I won't stop her."

Ruoruo didn't answer. She lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking, but she didn't look very happy at all.

Zhang Qin quickly asked, "Ruoruo, do you want to go out for a walk?"

She was always afraid that Ruoruo would get suffocated staying in the ward alone, and she asked her countless times a day if she wanted to go out for a walk.

Ruoruo agreed this time.

She now needs a wheelchair to go out, and can only walk around in quiet places with few people. Although she has survived many near-death experiences, her health is getting worse year by year.

Even if the hospital built a stable enough elevator, she couldn't stand it on her own two legs and her heart couldn't handle it. It would be better for her to sit in a wheelchair.

"Ruoruo, put on this sun hat. It's not safe in the hospital. We have to protect ourselves!"

If Ruoruo looks like this, wouldn't it be dangerous if she was seen by someone with ulterior motives?

Not to mention that she heard yesterday that an old man in the inpatient department on the second floor was peeking around at other people's ward doors, relying on his age to bully young girls and nurses, and even deliberately urinated everywhere. In her opinion, this kind of bad guy should be chopped up and fed to the dogs!

Zhang Qin couldn't imagine how angry she would be if she was pestered by that kind of person.

So after hearing about this, Zhang Qin immediately went out and bought Ruoruo a few sun hats that only exposed the eyes. They were the kind that were both beautiful and comfortable, and were definitely carefully selected by her.

Ruoruo didn't mind either, because she hadn't had contact with anyone other than Zhang Qin and doctors and nurses for a long time, so she had some obvious social anxiety and was afraid of the gazes of strangers a long time ago.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have such thick bangs. Sometimes, covering my eyebrows and eyes is like trying to cover up one's own faults, as if others can't see me either.

However, they didn't expect that as soon as they got out of the elevator, they saw Bai Minmin not far away.

Zhang Qin muttered quietly, "Didn't she leave? Why is she still here? She can't even pay the bill when she has time. This is too much!"

Bai Ruoruo said, "Aunt Qin, let's go over and take a look."

Bai Minmin stood at the bathroom door and didn't seem to see them.

When she walked closer, she saw a tall man standing in front of her. Fortunately, he was not standing crookedly, and his suit was not undone with many buttons. Instead, all the buttons were buttoned up to the top button. It seemed that he did not have the potential for the "evil smile" described in the novel, so he was probably not the male protagonist.

However, even though he is not the male protagonist, he is still no less handsome, with cold eyebrows and eyes, an upright posture, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose. He looks extremely noble, not much different from the image of the male protagonist described in the novel.

But as soon as she walked in, Ruo Ruo heard her elder sister say, "I'm willing to be supported by you, as long as you are willing to save my sister..."
