Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Stupid People with Lots of Money
Pour the porridge into a small bowl and hand it to Jiang Yuxia.
Jiang Yuxia drank his porridge in small sips, his black hair hanging softly in front of his forehead. Just like he said, he was very sensitive to Zhou Boye's mood changes, and he should have noticed it at this time, so he was particularly well-behaved, sitting upright, and even his eyes were soft.
Zhou Boye felt itchy and reached out to take his bowl of porridge, "I'll feed you."
Jiang Yuxia: "..."
Seeing him open his mouth obediently, Zhou Boye suddenly became curious about what his identity was in his eyes.
"Jiang Yuxia," he asked, "Who am I?"
Jiang Yuxia: "Mr. Zhou?"
Zhou Boye: "What is our relationship?"
"Well, that..."
Zhou Boye pondered for a moment and then expressed his guess, "I'm supporting you?"
Jiang Yuxia bit her lower lip and nodded slightly, confirming his guess.
Zhou Boye raised his eyebrows slightly, "How much do I pay you every month?"
He was even able to support Jiang Yuxia.
Jiang Yuxia was a little surprised by his question, but she answered honestly, "The contract says it's five million a month, but you'll also provide me with a lot of resources."
The prerequisite is to serve him comfortably.
Zhou Boye was a little dissatisfied: "Only five million? That's a bit stingy. Do you want me to give you a little more?"
Jiang Yuxia: "Ah? No need."
After understanding his own identity, some of Jiang Yuxia's previous actions became clear.
But Zhou Boye was curious, "Why do you need so much money?"
Jiang Yuxia lowered her eyes. "My father gambled away and owed money to loan sharks. He took all the money in the house. Now my mother is sick and needs a kidney transplant, which costs a lot of money."
Zhou Boye nodded thoughtfully. What father and mother? In reality, Jiang Yuxia was an orphan.
Then he asked another question calmly: "Five million a month, isn't that enough for medical treatment?"
What disease requires five million?
Jiang Yuxia paused, as if stuck, and blinked at Zhou Boye, seemingly not quite understanding. "Anyway, it's just not enough."
Zhou Boye was afraid that if he continued to ask, he would crash, so he scooped a spoonful of porridge and passed it to his lips, "Okay, it's not enough. Eat first."
Jiang Yuxia couldn't drink more than half a bowl of porridge. Zhou Boye didn't force him to eat more. Instead, under his surprised gaze, he quickly drank the rest of the porridge and added a little more, which was considered his dinner.
Jiang Yuxia's pupils shrank slightly when he saw this scene.
Zhou Boye noticed his gaze and asked, "What's wrong? Do you still want to eat?"
Jiang Yuxia murmured, "That...I've eaten it before."
He then whispered another word, "Dirty."
Zhou Boye: "..." He subconsciously picked it up and ate it, not really paying attention to this problem.
"fine."
After dinner, Jiang Yuxia fell asleep quickly.
He is still in a relatively tired state, and since he has taken various medicines with hypnotic effects, the doctor also asked him to rest more.
Zhou Boye rubbed his eyebrows, turned on the night light, and opened his laptop. He had a lot of work to do from the day before, so he started working under the dim light of the night light.
From time to time, the sound of two keyboard tappings could be heard in the quiet ward.
In the dark.
Jiang Yuxia slowly opened his eyes, and no one noticed that he was actually a little afraid of sleeping.
As soon as he closed his eyes, he would experience the feeling of weightlessness as if he was falling from a high altitude, just like drowning. He always heard the sound of rapidly passing air in his ears and could not breathe.
My body is very tired, but my mind is extremely excited.
The feeling of weightlessness was followed by heart-pounding fear. The excruciating pain when he hit the ground left marks on his body and overwhelmed all his thoughts.
Jiang Yuxia slowly grasped the corner of the quilt, tightening it little by little.
It feels so uncomfortable.
The next moment, his eyes were suddenly covered by a dry and warm big hand. Zhou Boye had noticed that he was not asleep at some point and walked over.
Jiang Yuxia moved his lips, "I..."
The sound of mopping the bedside chair was heard, and Zhou Boye's voice came, "It's okay, go to sleep, I'm right next to you."
A faint woody scent wafts from the nose, and warmth continues to come from where the skin touches.
Jiang Yuxia blinked, and inexplicably, his heart calmed down. Fatigue slowly took over his body, and he fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, when Jiang Yuxia woke up, Zhou Boye was already sitting by the bed, peeling an apple, dressed in refreshed clothes.
"woke up?"
Jiang Yuxia nodded, put on the pain pump, and woke up from a nap, feeling sore and painful all over his body, even the joints between his bones were sore. He groaned twice.
Zhou Boye: "The pain pump can't be used for the time being, but if it hurts a lot you can take a painkiller. Do you want to take it?"
Jiang Yuxia tried to move his body, but when it was still within the tolerable range, he shook his head.
Zhou Boye helped him wash his face and brush his teeth. After Jiang Yuxia sat down on the bed refreshed, he took a hot towel to help him wipe his hands. Suddenly, he sneered, "How can there be a sponsor like me? Jiang Yuxia, are our identities reversed?"
Jiang Yuxia was startled, and as if he suddenly remembered something, he said softly, "Thank you for your hard work. Why don't we just leave the hospital? We can't keep troubling you like this. I still have to make soup for you."
Zhou Boye: "Tsk, is making soup for the sponsor a task you have to complete?"
Li Qi, who had just walked in, happened to hear this and asked, "Sponsor? What sponsor?"
Jiang Yuxia lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly.
Li Qi was completely unprepared when Zhou Boye calmly said, "In fact, we signed the contract a year ago."
He pointed at Jiang Yuxia and laughed maliciously: "He is the canary I raised."
Li Qi was completely shocked. This plot was like a wild horse running out of control.
Looking at his expression and the subtle way the two of them get along, Li Qi suddenly couldn't tell. Was this a fantasy created by Jiang Yuxia after he hit his head, or was it real?
He quickly turned to look at the other protagonist, and when he noticed Li Qi's gaze, Jiang Yuxia pursed his lips and turned his head away.
Zhou Boye threw the towel away and said lazily, "Why are you looking at him? Can he really deceive you?"
Li Qi: “…”
What the hell is this?
Li Qi came, and Zhou Boye finally took some time to deal with things. When he came back, he heard Jiang Yuxia's voice before he opened the door.
"I know that the person Zhou Boye loves is not me. I saw a photo in his wallet. The person in the photo looks almost exactly like me.
Zhou Boye stopped and stood at the door listening to Jiang Yuxia's every word.
"I'm just a stand-in for his first love, so I don't love him. I'm just doing what's within my job scope. I want money, and he wants to be reminded of someone else. We each get what we need. On a daily basis, I just try to please him."
"Zhou Boye is just a fool with a lot of money."
After hearing everything, Zhou Boye raised his eyebrows slightly. It turned out that there was such a setting.
