The nurse frowned and asked me, "Did you take sleeping pills?"

"Yeah, I took two pills before bed, and now..." I glanced at the digital clock outside the emergency room, "about four hours have passed."

The nurse immediately shook her head: "That won't work, the blood test won't pass."

I spread my hands, looked at their astonished eyes, and said slowly, "I'm sorry, it's not that I'm unwilling to help, but I'm simply powerless to do anything about it."

Jiang Haiyang was furious: "Jiang Wan, you've played us! Why didn't you say so sooner when you knew we couldn't donate blood?"

"That's unfair to me. Gu Yanqing forcibly kidnapped me from my home. I don't know anything about it." I blinked innocently, my gaze sweeping over them one by one.

“Jiang Wan, you…” Gu Yanqing stared at me, gritting his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.

Seeing their humiliated faces, my mood suddenly improved.

Just then, the emergency room door was pushed open, and a nurse rushed out, urgently asking, "We're running out of blood bags! Have you found a blood source yet? Hurry!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Xiue panicked and her legs went weak. She grabbed Jiang Haiyang and pushed him over, crying, "Go get your blood drawn! My daughter is going to die!"

Jiang Haiyang valued his life and was clearly unwilling, but Tang Xiue slapped him repeatedly, so he couldn't refuse and could only hurry with the nurse to the blood drawing room.

Gu Yanqing rolled up his sleeves and said without hesitation, "I can take mine too!"

Wow, that's amazing!

I said sarcastically, "My blood flows in your veins, so taking your blood is like indirectly taking mine."

Gu Yanqing and Tang Xiue looked at me at the same time, their expressions both indescribable.

I made a face—isn't that right?

After Gu Yanqing went in to have his blood drawn, I yawned and prepared to turn around and leave.

To my surprise, Tang Xiu'e wouldn't let me leave. "You must stay! You can only leave after Xiao Yi is saved!"

I scoffed, "Does she not survive? Am I supposed to die with her?"

Tang Xiue didn't respond to that, but threatened, "If you leave now, your mother can forget about getting her shares!"

I was frustrated and speechless.

If you're thinking of staying, then stay. If Jiang Yi really dies, I'll at least witness it with my own eyes.

But I took sleeping pills, and I was so sleepy that I kept yawning and tears were streaming down my face.

I looked around, then lay down fully clothed on a bench in the corridor and instantly fell asleep.

In my hazy state, I could still hear Tang Xiu'e cursing and swearing. She was obviously so angry that she vomited blood because she saw me sleeping so soundly.

I couldn't be bothered with it; it's not like I intentionally left it in her sight.

————

After a night of emergency treatment, Jiang Yi once again pulled through the jaws of death.

As dawn broke, I got up from the bench, stretched my numb limbs, and prepared to leave the hospital.

Gu Yanqing reportedly felt extremely dizzy after having his blood drawn last night and is resting in his hospital room.

He brought me here last night, so it seems unlikely he'll be able to take me back.

Even if he could give it to me, and was willing to give it to me, I wouldn't care.

As I walked out of the hospital, I was about to hail a taxi when a Porsche Cayenne parked on the side of the road suddenly rolled down its window, revealing a young and sweet face: "Beautiful lady, need a taxi?"

I was taken aback, then chuckled, "Yeah, what's wrong?"

The girl smiled brightly, "Get in the car quickly, I'll take you wherever you want!"

I looked at the unfamiliar girl in front of me, then at the Porsche, and thought she was playing a prank: "Little sister, are you kidding me? Using a Porsche to drive for ride-hailing services?"

"Yeah! My family doesn't give me any living expenses, so I can only support myself by driving for ride-hailing services. Hurry up and get in! I haven't made a single sale yet today."

The young woman was serious; she didn't seem to be joking.

I'm so tired. I took two sleeping pills last night but was forced to stay up all night at the hospital. I slept so hard in the chair that my whole body felt like it was going to fall apart. Right now, all I want to do is go back and catch up on my sleep.

Thinking that perhaps the young lady was just experiencing life, I smiled, opened the passenger door, and got in.

"Sorry, I don't have my phone with me, so I can't place an order."

The pretty young woman readily agreed, "It's okay, I haven't activated the order-taking system yet either. You can pay the fare when you get home."

"..." I was even more surprised and speechless.

I gave her the villa's address, and the pretty young woman entered the destination into the car's navigation system, then gently turned the steering wheel and slid out of the parking space.

They hadn't driven far when the young woman's phone rang.

She answered the call using her Bluetooth headset: "Hey, bro... I have to go now, can you have the driver pick you up? Oh dear, it happened so suddenly, I haven't had a chance to tell you yet, I'll explain later... Oh dear, you'll definitely praise me for doing the right thing! I'm hanging up now, I'm driving."

Upon hearing her on the phone, I instinctively glanced at the rearview mirror.

I don't know if I'm seeing things, but there was a tall and handsome figure standing by the roadside in front of the hospital. The morning light fell on him, and a sense of coolness and warmth blended harmoniously around him.

He stood there, seemingly purifying the surrounding noise and clamor in an instant; his extraordinary temperament was like that of a fine orchid or a jade tree.

The person was making a phone call with their arm raised. I couldn't see their features clearly because of the distance, but I felt strangely familiar with them, as if I had seen them somewhere before.

I was still puzzled and hadn't sorted out my thoughts when the pretty girl hung up the phone, chuckled, and explained, "It's my home phone. They don't believe I drive for ride-hailing services. Humph, I'll show them!"

I smiled without saying a word, thinking to myself that this naive little princess must be showered with love and affection.

I'm supposed to be a rich heiress, but I've never experienced the warmth of a family since I was old enough to understand things.

Although my mother loves me, her unhappy marriage has made her particularly resentful, and she conveys negative energy to me.

Later, my parents divorced, and the whole thing turned ugly and messy.

Then my maternal grandfather passed away, and my mother also passed away. Fewer and fewer people cared about me. I became a thorn in the side of my biological father and stepmother in the Jiang family, and life became even more difficult.
