Chapter 31 Despair can drive a normal person crazy
Ji Bingqian had already walked to the water dispenser in the corner and filled a glass of water.
Xu Yueqing thought he wanted to drink it himself.
Unexpectedly, he turned around and handed the glass of water to her.
Xu Yueqing was stunned.
A warm touch came from her fingertips. She took it, brought it to her mouth and took a sip.
The warm water moistened the dry throat, and the burning sensation was suppressed, making people feel much more comfortable.
She turned her head and glanced out the window.
The sky was already turning pale and the clouds were rolling.
"Do you want to continue sleeping?" Ji Bingqian asked.
Xu Yueqing shook his head.
When I fell asleep again, Jiang Chejin's distorted face was still in my dream.
Ji Bingqian stared at her and suddenly mentioned it.
"I remember you were very good at extrapolating data."
"That's great, can you help me with this?"
Xu Yueqing nodded.
The two moved to the sofa area.
Ji Bingqian sat down on the sofa naturally. Xu Yueqing hesitated for a moment, but still felt that it would be more comfortable to sit on the carpet, so he sat down cross-legged.
Ji Bingqian pushed the thick stack of documents on the table in front of her.
"These are project materials regarding the East City Development Project."
Ji Bingqian's voice was particularly clear in the quiet ward.
"The man who hurt me yesterday is a single father with a five-year-old daughter who has bone cancer."
Xu Yueqing's fingers, which were flipping through the papers, paused.
Ji Bingqian didn't look at her and his tone was flat.
"Some time ago, his father was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer."
It is true that a hemp rope always breaks at the thinnest part, and misfortune always finds the unfortunate.
Xu Yueqing's brows were knitted together.
Ji Bingqian continued.
"The Ji family will not only build a nursing home there, but also a new commercial district."
"Since three years ago, companies have been developing projects near that piece of land in the east of the city."
"Several cosmetics companies have moved their factories there, and every day a large amount of untreated chemical waste is discharged directly into the sewers."
Chemical waste?
She understands this stuff.
She continued in a low voice, her voice carrying a hint of professional calmness, "These chemical wastes, if absorbed excessively by the human body over a long period of time, can indeed induce various diseases and even cancer."
Ji Bingqian glanced at her.
"You're right."
"The residents of that area are all suffering from some kind of health problem."
"Ji's reputation is so great that once we decided to build a nursing home in the east city, more companies came looking for business opportunities, all wanting to get a piece of the action."
Ji Bingqian's tone was calm, but his brows were furrowed.
"Chemical pollution is also getting worse."
"When that man's child fell ill, he blamed everything on Ji."
"Before this, I had talked to him privately several times, hoping that he would take the child to the best hospital."
"But the other party has been very emotional and refused to accept it."
Ji Bingqian paused for a moment before saying, "Yesterday, his child's condition suddenly worsened and he received a critical illness notice. He happened to meet me on the road and lost control of himself, so he started the attack."
After hearing the whole story, Xu Yueqing felt like a ball of cotton was blocking her heart.
She asked, "Is the child already in the late stage?"
"Early days."
"But the cost of bone cancer is too high, and he can't afford it."
Xu Yueqing was completely silent.
Yeah, I’m powerless.
She understands these four words better than anyone else.
Wasn’t it the same thing when my mother was diagnosed with uremia?
I watched my loved ones suffer from illness, but I couldn't even afford the most basic medical expenses.
That kind of despair can drive a normal person crazy.
Although she sympathized with the man, she was also rational.
This matter cannot be blamed on Ji Bingqian at all.
The Ji family is just a big tree that attracts the wind.
