Chapter 24: Obsessive Childhood Sweetheart's Forced Pampering - Waiting for Him to Kneel Down and Beg
"What do you mean?"
Gu Shanshan keenly sensed that Assistant Wang seemed to have a hidden meaning in his words.
"It doesn't mean anything."
Assistant Wang adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and gave Gu Shanshan a smile.
"It was just a casual remark, please don't overthink it."
That being said, however, Gu Shanshan felt that Assistant Wang's gaze was not so simple.
"alright."
Assistant Wang patted his sleeves. "I've delivered President Gong's message. I should be going now."
After speaking, he turned and walked out of the ward.
Just as he was about to step out, he seemed to suddenly remember something and stopped in his tracks.
He placed one hand on the doorknob and said without turning his head.
"Oh right, I almost forgot something."
"What's up?"
Gu Shanshan asked nervously, her eyes fixed on Assistant Wang's back.
He was afraid that Assistant Wang might say something else.
"take it easy."
Even without turning around, Assistant Wang could guess that Gu Shanshan was now like a frightened bird.
He comforted him, saying, "I just want to say that since you are no longer President Gong's person, all of Jiang Ziheng's medical treatment will stop here, including this ward, which will also be taken back. Please ask Mr. Gu to take Jiang Ziheng away from here as soon as possible to free up the ward for other people who need it."
"Okay, I understand. I will take Jiang Ziheng away as soon as possible."
Gu Shanshan answered.
"Mr. Gu is being so cooperative, President Gong will definitely be very pleased."
After saying that, Jiang Ziheng really left this time.
Crack...
Hearing the door close, Gu Shanshan finally relaxed.
He touched his forehead and found his hand covered in sweat.
Gu Shanshan took a deep breath.
Unbeknownst to him, he had broken out in a cold sweat.
Looking at the bank card in her other hand, Gu Shanshan's eyes darkened.
If he had any backbone, he shouldn't have taken Gong Ye's dirty money.
It's as if his relationship with Gong Ye was defined as a purely financial one.
Unfortunately, sometimes integrity is no match for reality.
If they don't accept this money, Jiang Ziheng simply won't be able to afford his medical expenses.
Gu Shanshan was still covered with Gong Ye's coat. She wanted to throw it away, but there were no other clothes in the ward. Her own clothes had long been torn to shreds by Gong Ye and were no longer wearable.
With no other choice, despite his deep loathing for Gong Ye, he could only pick up Gong Ye's coat and wrap it around himself.
It's always the same. Gong Ye always pushes him into a corner, blocking all his options and forcing him to choose only things related to himself.
He had no clothes underneath; he was only wearing Gong Ye's overcoat.
He could only button his coat all the way up and tighten his belt to cover the suggestive marks on his body.
After tidying herself up, Gu Shanshan looked at Jiang Ziheng on the hospital bed.
Looking at Jiang Ziheng, who was still fast asleep, Gu Shanshan felt even more guilty.
Despite the commotion he and Gong Ye caused, Jiang Ziheng didn't wake up.
Gu Shanshan guessed that it must have been that pervert Gong Ye who, in order to toy with him, fed Jiang Ziheng sleeping pills or something similar, causing Jiang Ziheng to fall into a deep sleep.
He didn't know that Jiang Ziheng hadn't been given medicine by Gong Ye, but had already become a vegetable.
By the time he cleaned everything in the room, half an hour had passed.
......
Gong Yezu sat in the car, silently staring at the display screen in front of him.
The screen displayed a scene from Gu Shanshan's hospital room.
Gu Shanshan had no idea that her every move was being monitored by Gong Ye.
Assistant Wang had been gone for some time, but when he returned, he stood outside and knocked on the car window.
The car window rolled down slightly, revealing Gong Ye's icy face.
Assistant Wang lowered his head, not daring to glance at the content on the tablet, and respectfully reported.
"President Gong, we have already informed the hospital as you instructed."
Gong Ye nodded slightly, his eyes still glued to Gu Shanshan on the tablet, and gave the order in a hoarse voice.
"Let's drive."
Ha, he's waiting for the day Gu Shanshan comes kneeling on the ground begging him.
Assistant Wang understood, got into the passenger seat, and told the driver to drive away from the hospital.
......
In the hospital ward.
Almost as soon as Gu Shanshan put down the rag, the door was pushed open from the outside.
The commotion was so loud that it startled Gu Shanshan.
Turning around, I saw several doctors enter, their expressions unfriendly.
Her heart tightened, and she stepped forward to block Jiang Ziheng's path. "You..."
He had barely uttered a sound when he was interrupted by the doctor in charge.
"Mr. Gu, is that right?"
Gu Shanshan nodded, looking at the doctor behind him, "You..."
This time, he was interrupted by the doctor again before he could finish speaking.
"That's right."
"ah?"
Gu Shanshan didn't understand what they meant at all and looked completely bewildered.
The doctor took out several forms from the person behind him, looked at the forms, and asked Gu Shanshan again.
"Gu Shanshan, are you a family member of Jiang Ziheng?"
Gu Shanshan didn't understand what they meant, thinking that she was Jiang Ziheng's boyfriend and therefore practically family.
He nodded immediately. "Yes, may I ask what you need?"
"That's fine."
The doctor handed the bill to Gu Shanshan, saying, "This is the medical bill Jiang Ziheng owes since he was admitted to the hospital. Since you are Jiang Ziheng's family member, please pay the bill."
"What?"
Gu Shanshan was a little confused.
The doctor pointed to the receipt and said, "Take a look for yourself."
"Okay, sure."
Gu Shanshan nodded, her gaze falling on the receipt in her hand, her expression growing increasingly grim as she looked at it.
Later, her hands were trembling as she held the receipt, and she looked up at the doctor in disbelief.
"This...could there be a mistake?"
"That's right, that's all the cost."
Gu Shanshan exclaimed in disbelief, "Three million? How could it be so much?"
Pointing to Jiang Ziheng on the hospital bed, she said, "He doesn't look that bad, so how come it cost so much money?"
The doctor glanced at Gu Shanshan with pity. "Mr. Gu, you probably don't know this, but Jiang Ziheng is now in a vegetative state. His daily medical expenses are very high. These bills are quite reasonable."
"Vegetative state?"
Gu Shanshan exclaimed in surprise.
Clutching the doctor's clothes excitedly, she asked, "Are you kidding me?"
He pointed at Jiang Ziheng and said, "Look carefully, Jiang Ziheng is just asleep. How could he be in a vegetative state!"
Such a wonderful person, yet he became a vegetable, which Gu Shanshan simply could not accept.
Besides, Jiang Ziheng is in a vegetative state, so how can he complete his mission?
"The test data shows that Jiang Ziheng is now in a vegetative state. If Mr. Gu does not believe it, he can be transferred to another hospital for treatment."
"This...this..."
Gu Shanshan held the receipt, looked at Jiang Ziheng on the hospital bed, then at the doctor in front of her, and couldn't accept this fact.
"Mr. Gu, please pay the bill," the doctor urged impatiently.
Gu Shanshan frowned, thinking of the bank card Gong Ye had given her.
He didn't know how much money was inside.
He handed over his bank card and said, "Take a look and see how much money is in here. If it's not enough, give me two more days, and I'm sure I can raise the money."
Assistant Wang told him to go home, and he agreed to go back as well.
Let's see if we can get some money from the Gu family to pay for Jiang Ziheng's medical expenses.
The doctor didn't say anything, took the card, and had someone check it.
The man returned quickly and whispered a few words in the doctor's ear.
The doctor looked at Gu Shanshan and said, "Mr. Gu, there is exactly three million inside. We will accept this bank card."
"Okay." Gu Shanshan nodded.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
But then I realized something was wrong.
The medical expenses amounted to three million, and Gong Ye also put three million in his bank account.
No sooner had Gong Ye left than the doctor arrived with his men demanding payment for medical expenses.
This looks like it was all planned out in advance.
He stopped the doctor, "Is this Gong Ye's fate...?"
The doctor interrupted Gu Shanshan, "Oh, right, I forgot to tell you, please take Jiang Ziheng and leave here immediately."
This sudden expulsion left Gu Shanshan feeling bewildered.
"Why?"
“I’m doing this for your own good, Mr. Gu. This is a private hospital.”
He pointed to Jiang Ziheng on the hospital bed and said, "In his condition, lying here for a day would cost tens of thousands of yuan. Mr. Gu, if I may ask, do you have enough money to pay for his medical expenses?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Shanshan fell silent.
He didn't have a single penny on him.
He really couldn't afford it, but if he moved out now, he wouldn't have the money to rent a place or find another hospital to admit Jiang Ziheng.
"Move out as soon as possible."
Gu Shanshan grabbed the doctor's arm, preventing him from leaving, and pleaded in her voice.
"Give me one more day, I'll go home and get the money quickly. I won't delay paying the medical bills, I'm sure I can afford it."
"Doctor, could you please give me one more day?"
The doctor glanced at Gu Shanshan with a troubled expression, but finally nodded.
"This is the last day. If you don't move out by tomorrow, don't blame us for being impolite."
The doctor left only after issuing the warning.
Gu Shanshan returned to the bedside and looked at Jiang Ziheng, whose eyes were tightly closed, feeling even more guilty.
Her hatred for Gong Ye intensified.
He felt around in his pocket and found a 100-yuan note inside Gong Ye's coat.
Looking at the brand-new money in her hand, Gu Shanshan got up and left the ward. It was already dusk, and the buses had long since stopped running, so Gu Shanshan had no choice but to take a taxi to the Gu family home.
He was very curious about what kind of fright Gong Ye had prepared for him at the Gu family's house.
