"Okay, then hurry back~ beep beep beep~"

Yue Jiuling looked at the phone that had already been hung up and pouted, "Sigh, I wonder how well this guy will do on the exam."

"Jiuling, do you want some candy? Oh, and could you get me my water glass?"

Ya Zi walked towards Yue Jiu Ling with a few yellow durians in his hand. He had just come down from the rooftop and was slightly sweaty and thirsty from the sun.

Yue Jiuling naturally helped Ya Zi pick up his water glass from the next table and handed it to him, while also taking the durian candies from his hand: "Want some."

Ya Zi took the water cup, said thank you, and then went to the tea room to get more water.

At this moment, Bai Xinyu and the others came down from the rooftop. Bai Xinyu walked over to Xiao Baicai, who was looking at reports, and said, "Come on, little cutie Cai Cai, come and see if there's anything you like?"

As soon as Xiaobaicai looked up, she saw that Bai Xinyu's phone screen was filled with a series of hats, including her usual straw hat, as well as sun hats, baseball caps, bucket hats, and all sorts of other types.

He stared blankly at his phone, not quite understanding what Bai Xinyu meant: "Sister Xinyu, are you buying a hat?"

"Oh dear, why would I buy a hat? I'm letting you choose. Didn't we agree last time that I'd give you a hat when I got paid?" Bai Xinyu said with a smile.

"But isn't it payday yet?" Little Cabbage was a little confused. It wasn't even the end of the month yet, so why would Bai Xinyu give her a hat now?

Bai Xinyu laughed when she saw Xiaobaicai's silly look: "Oh, you silly child, can't I send it to you in advance? Besides, there are still a few days before payday."

"Oh, thank you so much, Sister Xinyu! But are you really going to give me a hat?"

Once Xiaobaicai understood, she took Bai Xinyu's phone and started picking out hats. Yue Jiuling, who had overheard their conversation, chimed in, "Caicai, remember to pick the best-looking one. Don't waste Xinyu's good intentions."

Little Cabbage touched the straw hat on her head and said happily, "Okay, I understand."

In a hospital bed, a man lay on the verge of death, his body covered in various medical instruments. Several people, seemingly his relatives, surrounded him, weeping and wailing.

The man looked terrible, as if he would die at any moment. He was clearly on the verge of death, and even the doctors who came to treat him all looked helpless.

Suddenly, two people entered the ward: a middle-aged man in his forties and an elderly woman.

The older woman led the middle-aged man into the ward and began to shoo them away: "Get out, all of you! Useless doctors, get out! Let the master take a look."

A woman who was crying sadly saw the older woman chasing them away, so she went up to her and grabbed the older woman's hand: "Mom, what are you doing? Why are you chasing us away?"

Before the older woman could speak, the middle-aged man next to her spoke up. With a mysterious look on his face, he pointed at the man on the hospital bed and said, "If you don't want this man to die, you can all get out. I can save him."

The older woman also said, "Yes, Ali, you all need to leave quickly. This is a master I found after a lot of trouble. He said he can save Ah Zhi's life. You all need to leave quickly and not delay the master from saving my son!"

As soon as the old woman said this, everyone knew that she wanted to find this "master" to save her son. However, everyone present knew that such "charlatans" were just fooling people, so they all tried to persuade the old woman to stop.

The woman grabbed the older woman's hand and said, "Mom, don't be fooled. Even the doctors can't help Ah Zhi, so please don't..."

Before the woman could finish speaking, the older woman forcefully shoved her away: "What do you mean?! You don't want to save Ah Zhi? You bitch! Do you want my son dead?! If my son dies, can you go find someone else? Let me tell you, no way!!"

"Mom, you've misunderstood, I didn't mean it, waaaaah~"

As soon as the older woman started cursing at the other woman, the others in the ward began to try to persuade her. An old man pulled the older woman aside and said, "Alright, old woman, stop talking. We'll all go out."

A boy, probably in his teens, pulled the older woman aside and said, "Grandma, please stop scolding Mom. Let's all go outside."

The doctor present also said, "Auntie, please stop making noise. This is a ward, and we need to keep quiet."

The woman, who had been being held back by her grandson, had calmed down a bit. She looked at her sobbing daughter-in-law and said irritably, "Aren't you going to get out of here?"

The woman left the ward with her son and father-in-law, and the doctors, seeing the old woman's condition, also left. They had already decided that the man in the hospital bed was beyond saving, so they could understand the family's desperate attempts to find a cure. They simply ignored what they did, since they were all going to die anyway.

After everyone else left the ward, only the old woman and the 'master' remained.

The master then took out a small bottle covered with strange talismans in front of the old woman. He then wrote and drew a few characters in the air over the man on the sickbed, and pointed at the bottle a few times. After completing these steps, he took out a piece of yellow paper, drew some talismans on it, and handed it to the old woman.
