“Chasing His Wife at the Crematorium with a Second Male Lead Rising – A Strong Female Lead’s Career-Focused Retro Revenge Story. No Forgiveness, No Looking Back!”
Because she slapped ...
Lu Zhixing was confused and had no idea that the wind in the staff quarters had changed.
Originally, everyone felt sorry for Zhou Xinyue and accused Xie Yunshu of being unreasonable. But now Xie Yunshu stopped making trouble and directly moved his things away, determined to divorce, and these people began to sympathize with Xie Yunshu.
Probably because it was the twelfth lunar month, the hospital wasn't so busy anymore. Lu Zhixing had a minor surgery and was looking at the medical records in the office.
A nurse knocked on the door and came in: "Doctor Lu, Xiaowei's hospitalization fee is not enough, we are still short of three yuan..."
Lu Zhixing tightened his fingers slightly: "Have you told Xinyue?"
Zhou Xinyue has passed the internship period and is now receiving a normal salary. In the past, he would give their mother 5 yuan every month. He even paid for Xiaowei's tuition some time ago.
She could afford three dollars for medical expenses.
The young nurse was slightly stunned, and asked tentatively: "Are you asking Nurse Zhou to pay for this?"
This kid named Xiaowei is not sick, it's not a cold, it's a fall. Today his arm is skinned, tomorrow his foot is scalded. She even suspects that this kid has caught something. But before, it was Doctor Lu who ran around, and the medical expenses and hospitalization fees were all paid by him.
So when the inpatient department reminded her that there was not enough money, she came directly to Lu Zhixing, and the entire hospital tacitly agreed that Xiaowei was not Lu Zhixing's child, but was no different from a biological child.
Lu Zhixing had never been so embarrassed before. Three yuan was not a large sum, but he couldn't even take it out: "Go tell Xinyue first. I'm busy with other things here and can't come over for the time being."
Lu Zhixing couldn't say that he had no money, so he could only make up an excuse. However, he was used to having a cold face, and the nurse couldn't tell from his face that she just nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go ask Nurse Zhou for the money."
The word "money" made Lu Zhixing's face heat up unconsciously. After the nurse left, he took a deep breath and felt that he must talk to Xie Yunshu again.
The divorce storm should be over as soon as possible. If it continues like this, both my life and work will be in a mess...
Zhou Xinyue threw Xiaowei to the hospital and never cared about him again. It was only when the nurse came over that she impatiently went over and asked, "What's wrong? Aren't your wounds all healed?"
Xiaowei pursed his lips and did not dare to look at her. His arms and legs were still in pain. He only dared to speak in a low voice: "Mom, I want to eat some steamed buns."
"How old are you? You eat so much every day. Are you going to starve to death and be reincarnated as a ghost?"
Zhou Xinyue didn't want to pay attention to him, but she was concerned that Lu Zhixing was also in the hospital, so she went to the nurse's station with a cold face and took the two leftovers from the breakfast: "Eat it yourself!"
Xiaowei's little face was wrinkled into a ball, his arms were covered with blisters, and it hurt to move. But he also knew that his mother would not feed him, so he could only endure the pain and slowly eat the cold food by himself.
Halfway through the meal, the nurse came in.
Zhou Xinyue's face changed. She broke the dough off bit by bit and put it in his mouth with heartache, then poured hot water over it: "Kid, I told you not to eat cold food but you didn't listen. Drink some water quickly, or you'll have a stomachache!"
The water was still a little hot. Xiaowei didn't dare to say anything and took a sip: "Mom, I'm not thirsty anymore."
Zhou Xinyue had no intention of continuing to feed him. She put the water on the table and turned to look at the nurse: "Thanks to you for helping take care of the child. When Xiaowei is discharged from the hospital, Brother Zhixing and I will definitely treat you to a meal."
It seems that she and Lu Zhixing are really a couple!
The young nurse thought of Lu Zhixing's words and said directly: "Nurse Zhou, Xiaowei already owes three yuan for hospitalization. Can you pay it back as soon as possible?"
Her monthly salary was only a few yuan, and owing medical expenses was a big deal. If it wasn't for Lu Zhixing, she couldn't be hospitalized without enough money...
Zhou Xinyue was stunned for a moment: "Didn't Brother Zhixing pay the money yesterday?"
Xiaowei had been hospitalized so many times, and Lu Zhixing had taken care of every one of them. She had never taken care of the hospitalization fees or medical expenses, and only used Xiaowei's "illness" to tie Lu Zhixing's heart.
Hearing Zhou Xinyue's words, the nurse's tone became a little bad. Both of them were paid, so why were they still hesitating about paying the medical expenses? If the money didn't come up, she would be the one who would be in trouble!
"Dr. Lu only paid three dollars last night. Since the money was not enough, I gave the child medicine and handled the hospitalization procedures because we were all colleagues."
The young nurse frowned and looked at Zhou Xinyue suspiciously: "I just went to see Doctor Lu, he said he was busy and asked me to come to you! You don't want to pay, do you?"
Zhou Xinyue reacted quickly and smiled: "How could that be? I'm also a nurse and I know the rules and regulations of our hospital. Don't worry, I'll get the money for you after work."
The young nurse was not happy: "I can't do that after get off work. You have time to go back and get it now. If you delay it for another night, the leader of the inpatient department will come to find me."
Zhou Xinyue's image in the hospital has always been that of a gentle and pure little white flower. Before she caught Lu Zhixing, she certainly maintained this image. Although she wanted to tear this little nurse apart in her heart, she still said softly: "Okay, I'll go home and get the money right away."
The nurse was not aggressive. She didn't say anything else as long as she could make up the medical expenses. She just looked at Xiaowei and said, "You should pay more attention to the child. What time is it now? Is it time for breakfast?"
No matter how well Zhou Xinyue pretended, she couldn't be perfect. As for whether she was good to the child, the nurses here knew it in their hearts, but they were unwilling to say anything in front of Lu Zhixing! After all, what could they say? Would they go to Doctor Lu and say that Zhou Xinyue was not a good mother?
The family even put their own wife in the psychiatric department for Zhou Xinyue, and they don't know how to deal with them being so stubborn. It's better to have less trouble than less!
This time Zhou Xinyue's smile was a little forced. She defended herself, "I've been too busy these past two days, and I've been thinking about Xiaowei in my heart!"
The young nurse sneered in her heart, turned around and left without saying anything.
This child's life is so miserable, having such a mother! What do you mean too busy? The news that she and Lu Zhixing came out of the family compound together this morning has spread all over the hospital. Why are you still pretending here?
You have time to bring meals to your boyfriend but no time to take care of your own children. Is this too busy?
Soon Zhou Xinyue and Xiaowei were the only two people left in the ward. Seeing Zhou Xinyue's gloomy face, Xiaowei subconsciously curled his neck.
The next moment, he was slapped on the head. "Useless thing, can you starve to death by skipping a meal? And you're spending my three dollars. Eat, eat, eat, and stop eating!"
The half-eaten cold rice was thrown into the trash can. Xiaowei covered his head with his burned arm and bit his lips tightly, not daring to cry out.
Zhou Xinyue was in a bad mood and didn't dare to make any noise in the hospital. She glared at him fiercely and left in a hurry.
She spent money like water during this period, all of it on clothes and cosmetics, where did she get three yuan? !
After Zhou Xinyue left, Xiaowei's tears suddenly flowed out. He got out of bed and picked up half a cookie from the trash can, eating it while sobbing softly...
He has no mother anymore, so she won't feel sorry for him anymore...
