Chapter 44 I Don’t Want Money, I Just Want You
Xing Yu said nothing, but took off his coat and put it on her.
He stared at her for a long time before leaving.
For the next three days, Zhou Gang still showed no signs of waking up.
Zhou Feiyue, An Chunfang's biological daughter, did not rush back. She transferred 20,000 yuan and sent An Chunfang away.
He said that his mother-in-law has been in poor health recently and he has to stay in Beijing to take care of her.
An Chunfang was very angry.
I made several phone calls to scold Zhou Feiyue, saying that her own father was almost dead! And she still had the time to take care of someone else's mother!
On the fourth day, Zhou Jing actually came.
After learning about Zhou Gang's situation, she was also powerless to do anything.
He just stuffed the 30,000 cash he had on hand into An Chunfang's hand.
An Chunfang looked at the 30,000 yuan in her hand, and yelled at Zhou Jing in the corridor, regardless of the people coming and going in the hospital.
"Zhou Jing, I've raised your daughter for so many years, and you're sending me packing for 30,000 yuan? Now your brother is still lying in the intensive care unit, and he hasn't woken up yet. The ICU is a place that burns money, and he has to stay in there for another ten days! Every day costs thousands or even tens of thousands! Don't you have to pay more?"
Zhou Jing wanted to help but couldn't. "It's not that I don't want to help, but my family has had some problems recently and we need money. My husband usually takes care of the money, and this 30,000 yuan is all I can give."
Under An Chunfang's scolding, Zhou Jing left after staying for a short time.
When he left, he did not forget to remind Lin Yan: "Your uncle has loved you so much since you were a child, you should be more tolerant."
On the fifth day, Zhou Gang's condition worsened, he developed a lung infection, and was pushed into the operating room again.
Lin Yan hardly slept these days, and fell asleep leaning against the door of the operating room, exhausted both physically and mentally.
Suddenly, my scalp felt like it was being flipped over and a sharp pain came.
When she opened her eyes, she found An Chunfang pulling her hair.
"Lin Yan, your uncle is like this, and you can still sleep!"
Lin Yan glanced at the open door of the operating room and uttered a hoarse sound: "How's the operation going?"
An Chunfang has cried all her tears dry in the past two days and seems to have accepted some reality.
She also secretly made plans for the future. Even if Zhou Gang passed away this time, she had to ensure that she would have some money to spend her old age in peace.
Her own biological daughter is unreliable, so she can only use this opportunity to suck more blood from Lin Yan.
"The doctor said that surgery will be needed later, and we need to prepare at least 500,000 yuan for nursing and treatment! Lin Yan, I'm just a rural woman with little money. Your uncle's accident happened because of you, so the medical expenses should be borne by you!"
Five hundred thousand...
Lin Yan suddenly felt powerless.
From the time Zhou Gang got into trouble till now, nearly 100,000 yuan has been spent.
She paid for it all.
And this one hundred thousand was the money on the card that Lin Zhi gave her a few days ago.
The driver also died at the scene.
Zhou Gang’s family came to the hospital to visit him and said that their family was in financial difficulty and had no money to pay compensation.
Even if you file a lawsuit, you won’t get compensation for a while.
How was she going to get the 500,000...
"Why aren't you talking?" An Chunfang saw that Lin Yan didn't respond and grabbed her arm tightly. "Lin Yan, you've worked in a big city for so many years and haven't bought a car or a house. Is it possible that you can't even come up with 500,000 yuan?"
"Don't you work for a big company in Beijing? I heard that translators get paid a lot! You look so reluctant, do you not want to pay?"
"I'm warning you, Lin Yan, if you don't pay this money, I'll beat you to death! Do you hear me?"
An Chunfang was shaking her body around, and she felt dizzy.
With an expressionless face, she twisted away An Chunfang's hand that was clamped on her arm.
She took a deep breath, her voice carrying a hint of fatigue.
"I'll find a way to get the money."
An Chunfang put her hands on her hips and glared, "You can't really not come up with half a million, right? Then what have you done in Beijing North all these years? You're almost thirty years old, you have no money, no partner, I really don't know how you can have the nerve to come back? I think you should be the one to get into the accident!"
Lin Yan was too weak to argue with her and turned to leave. An Chun reached out to stop her, and his expression changed subtly.
"Speaking of dates...are you and Coach Xing together? Doesn't Coach Xing have a crush on you? You don't have money, but Coach Xing does! I've got a plan for you. Why don't you just marry him and take this money as a betrothal gift!"
Lin Yan raised her eyes and said coldly: "Do you think I am gold, worth half a million?"
"You gave yourself the value! How about I go talk to him?"
Lin Yan warned her seriously: "An Chunfang, I will find a way to get the money myself, and don't even think about using Xing Yu as your own."
…
At night, the sky was dark and gloomy.
Lin Yan sat alone on a bench downstairs in the hospital.
Staring up at the dark night sky with empty eyes.
Just ten minutes ago, she had made several calls asking for money.
But they all rejected her for various reasons.
Only Su Xin and He Lan lent her 20,000 each.
But it is still far from half a million.
After struggling for a long time, she finally called Cheng Qing.
As soon as the call was connected, the sound of a baby crying came from Cheng Qing's end.
"Hello Yanyan... I'm a little busy here. The baby just vomited milk... I won't tell you now... I'll call you back later..."
"Okay, you go ahead and do your work."
After hanging up the phone, she dropped her hands exhausted.
Cheng Qing's life was already difficult, so how could I dare to say this to her...
Suddenly, two muffled thunders exploded in the sky.
In less than a minute, bean-sized raindrops fell and hit her.
She wanted to get up, but it was as if all the blood had been drained from her body and she had no strength at all.
Sitting there like a zombie.
Let the rain penetrate her skin.
She lowered her head, thinking of the unconscious Zhou Gang.
If something really happened to my uncle...
She will feel guilty for the rest of her life.
But, this money...
Suddenly, an umbrella appeared above her head, blocking the cold raindrops from hitting her body.
Lin Yan slowly raised her head along the tip of her shoe and fell into a deep gaze.
Their eyes met in the dense wind and rain, and no one spoke.
She stared at the man in front of her hopelessly.
It seems that I really have no choice but to find him...
After a long time, Lin Yan curled her fingers, as if she had made sufficient mental preparations.
She stood up and took a step closer to him.
"Xing Yu, I'd like to ask for your help..."
"Okay." Xing Yu: "But you're wet, go home and change clothes first."
Half an hour later, she returned home, took a shower and changed into clean clothes.
The door of Xing Yu's house was not closed, as if he was waiting for her.
When she walked into the room, she smelled the spicy scent of ginger.
Xing Yu placed a bowl of ginger soup on the dining table: "Drink it to ward off the cold."
Lin Yan felt very uncomfortable, stirring the boiling ginger soup, not knowing how to start.
Xing Yu noticed her hesitation and seemed to have made a decision in his mind.
"Finish your drink first, then we can talk."
Lin Yan absentmindedly took a few sips of ginger soup.
The spicy taste spreads in the mouth, and every spoonful of ginger soup is just mechanically completing the task.
His eyes were always vaguely fixed on Xing Yu opposite him.
After a moment, she put down the spoon in her hand and looked at him.
"Xing Yu, I want to borrow money from you..."
"How much?"
Lin Yan took a deep breath: "Five hundred thousand."
When she said this number, her heart seemed to be hit hard by something, and she felt extremely embarrassed.
"good."
Xing Yu's answer was straightforward and firm, without any questions or hesitation, and his tone seemed to be responding to a trivial matter.
She expected it.
But there was no joy.
If Xing Yu had hesitated for a few more seconds, that extra second of silence might have made her feel less guilty.
"Thank you. I may not be able to pay this money back for a while..."
His eyes were deep and mysterious, and his gaze was like a steady rock, firmly fixed on her face.
After a long while, he opened his mouth and said, "Friend, I don't want money, I only want you."
Lin Yan placed her palm on the bowl and couldn't help but tremble, causing the ginger soup in the bowl to ripple.
How could she not understand the principle of being grateful to the one who has benefited from it?
There is no willing giving, only lust hidden in the heart.
She understood equal exchange.
Besides, it’s worth half a million for one night, so it’s not a loss at all.
"Xing Yu, I... I haven't done anything like that..."
Xing Yu knew she would misunderstand him, so he deliberately asked, "What's the matter?"
Lin Yan stared at Jiang Tang, unable to speak.
Xing Yu stood up, walked around the dining table, and patted her on the back of the head.
"My friend, I am pure, please don't be so dirty."
Lin Yan looked up and saw the teasing smile on his lips before she realized that she had misunderstood.
In a state of embarrassment, Xing Yu had already squatted in front of her.
He looked up at her firmly and seriously.
"Lin Yan, I am clean both physically and mentally. I don't gamble or visit prostitutes, and I don't force or rob. Otherwise, please consider me."
