Chapter 90: Money Worship and Wheelchair Boss 6 (Big Change, Must Read)
"Ms. Ye has caught a cold."
The family doctor examined Cha Jiu's physical condition, gave a diagnosis, and prescribed some medicine.
Mrs. Zhang put a wet towel on Chajiu's forehead to cool her down.
Jiang Tingxu looked at the face that usually always radiated vigor and vitality, which was now flushed red and hot, and felt a surge of guilt in his heart.
It was he who brought Cha Jiu to the Jiang family.
But he didn't take good care of her.
Cha Jiu's tightly closed eyes moved restlessly under his eyelids, and his brows were wrinkled, as if he was trapped in an inescapable nightmare.
Her lips, which were a little cracked due to the fever, moved slightly, as if she was whispering something.
Mrs. Zhang came closer and listened. She immediately felt pity for her. She turned around and said to Jiang Tingxu, "Sir, Miss Ye dreamed of her mother."
Jiang Tingxu sighed silently.
Uncle Chen went out to see the doctor, and Mrs. Zhang went downstairs to cook some hot porridge that was easy to digest to prevent Chajiu from being hungry and having nothing to eat at night.
Jiang Tingxu stayed quietly with Cha Jiu in the room for a while.
After an unknown amount of time, Cha Jiu, who was dazed by the burning sensation, finally opened his eyes.
Her eyes were a little dazed. She stared at Jiang Tingxu for a while before she asked tentatively, "Mr. Jiang."
"It's me." Jiang Tingxu replied.
Cha Jiu seemed to feel relieved. He said nothing and fell asleep again.
But not long after, she woke up again and repeated the process.
She seemed extremely uneasy in her dream, and needed to confirm again and again that Jiang Tingxu was by her side.
Jiang Tingxu also responded to her very patiently.
Until a work call came.
He turned his wheelchair out of the room and went to the end of the corridor to answer the phone.
But before long, he heard a faint sound behind him.
He looked back inadvertently and was stunned.
Cha Jiu woke up from a nightmare. This time, she got no response, so she struggled to get up from the bed, walked out of the room holding on to the wall, and staggered around looking for something.
The person on the phone with "Mr. Jiang" thought Jiang Tingxu was disconnected.
"We'll talk about this tomorrow."
Jiang Tingxu hung up the phone and turned the wheelchair towards Cha Jiu, just in time to catch her when she slipped and fell.
Cha Jiu sat on his lap, his heavy and dizzy head sliding onto his shoulders.
Her face was burning hot, and it pressed against the bare skin on Jiang Tingxu's neck, making him feel hot for no reason.
"I dreamed of my mother." Cha Jiu said this lightly while being half asleep and half awake.
Jiang Tingxu heard the sadness in her tone.
He patted her back, in a soothing rhythm, as if he were coaxing a child.
"What did your mother say?" he asked.
"She said..." Cha Jiu seemed to be trying to recall, "She said, keep going forward and don't look back."
Jiang Ting's preface gives a warm interpretation: "She wants you not to be sad and continue to move towards the life you want."
Cha Jiu was at a loss: "But I don't know where I'm going."
Jiang Tingxu asked: "Is there any place you want to go?"
"A place I want to go." Cha Jiu's eyelids became heavier as he tapped her lightly. "Yes... I have a place I want to go."
"I want to be with Mr. Jiang."
She fell into a deep sleep.
Jiang Tingxu was stunned for a moment, and his hands stopped moving.
Mrs. Zhang happened to come upstairs to see Cha Jiu. When she saw this, she hurried over to help her up from Jiang Tingxu and put her back on the bed.
"This child is delirious due to fever..." Mrs. Zhang felt very distressed.
I was confused because of the fever, so I depended on him.
Jiang Tingxu thought so too.
…
It took two days for Cha Jiu to recover from the illness, but he still had a cough.
Jiang Chen knew that he had made her sick, and he felt a little guilty.
After all, he was not a bad person. When he sobered up, he realized that he was the one who was most responsible for the misunderstanding.
But how to compensate Cha Jiu?
This is another difficult problem for Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen's close friend Zhou Mingkun said on the phone: "Just apologize to her directly, it's not a big deal."
Jiang Chen couldn't bring himself to apologize: "It would be too embarrassing to apologize."
Zhou Mingkun was speechless: "Why don't you buy her a bag to cure all diseases? Besides, she loves money so much, if you buy her a more expensive one, she will be satisfied."
As a friend of Jiang Chen, Zhou Mingkun also looked down on Cha Jiu, a gold digger.
Jiang Chen thought this was a good idea.
So he picked a limited edition bag from the latest season of H brand.
There are only two of this bag in the world, and he used his status and connections and went through a lot of effort to buy it.
It was airlifted that afternoon and delivered to the Chiang family.
Cha Jiu sat in the living room, coughing while looking at the re-examination materials for Kyoto University graduate students.
The day for the written test results is approaching, and she has to show her diligence in front of Jiang Tingxu.
"Here, this is for you."
Jiang Chen went downstairs and casually threw the box containing the bag in front of Cha Jiu, as if he had just picked the bag at random without any effort at all.
The lid of the box was flipped open, and the contents were exposed in a mess, which wasted all the careful arrangements made by H Company for sales.
Cha Jiu just glanced at it, then looked away and continued reading.
Jiang Chen sat on the sofa opposite her, one leg draped over the other, and sneered, "Why are you pretending? Come and see it quickly. It's the newest and most expensive."
He clearly wanted to apologize, but his words were so harsh, as if he was deliberately trying to humiliate Cha Jiu.
Cha Jiu was too lazy to pay attention to him, so she pushed the box with the end of her pen, and it fell to the ground along the table.
Jiang Chen got angry: "What do you mean?"
Cha Jiu asked back: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Chen couldn't help but get angry: "Don't you like luxury goods? You always pestered me to buy this and that before. Why are you pretending to be so noble now?"
Cha Jiu looked at him calmly and said, "I do like luxury goods, and I also worship money, but Jiang Chen, I didn't take advantage of you at all. On the contrary, I even gave back to your family."
Jiang Chen laughed angrily: "Are you crazy? Are you talking nonsense?"
