Chapter 57 Holding in the Palm of Your Hand



The chief physician smiled and said, "This is only one day's medical expenses. Tomorrow's will be charged separately. Of course, you can also transfer your son to another hospital. Master Pei will pay the corresponding condolence fee according to the labor contract, which will probably be tens of thousands of yuan."

The old woman immediately sat on the ground and started to rage, "Third Master is not that kind of person. My son has become like this because of him. It must be that little vixen who is gossiping in front of Third Master. She doesn't want us to live!"

The chief physician's smile grew even brighter. "The Third Master also said that if it weren't for the fact that Ah Fei had grown up with him, he would have thrown you and your son out of the hospital long ago. If you say anything bad about Mrs. Pei again, please take your son and leave here in a mellow manner!"

As he spoke, he pointed towards the door.

The old woman sat on the ground in a daze, and she didn't come to her senses until the chief physician left.

So, she got it wrong from the beginning?

The Third Master dotes on that woman, not because he wants to save face, but because he really holds that woman in the palm of his hand?

How is this possible? Shouldn't someone with a family background like the Third Master treat women as clothes?

This is clearly what her mother taught her when she was a child.

Tell her that getting married is her only way out, that she should regard her husband as her God and carry on the family line for him, that it is normal for a man not to love her, and that she should learn to be patient, generous, and considerate...

Why should that woman be an exception?

The old woman clenched her fists. She was unwilling but helpless.

She looked at Ajie beside her and softened her tone: "Help your aunt think of a way to see if there is any hospital that can admit A Fei. Aren't you two good brothers?"

Ajie was speechless. He had just spoken harshly to him, and now he came to him for help. However, considering that he and A Fei had been brothers for many years, he still told the truth.

"Third Master's Yuanzhou Private Hospital is the best hospital in China. You should know that if Ah Fei leaves here, he will most likely die!"

The old woman wiped her tears and said, "Even if we emptied our family fortune, we wouldn't be able to hold out for more than a few days! I never thought Third Master could be so cruel. Ah Fei has been with him since he was a child. How could he have the heart to do this to us!"

Ajie also found it unbelievable. He knew the Third Master's character best. He was always kind and righteous to those around him and would never do anything to take advantage of someone's misfortune unless there was another reason.

His eyes flashed, and he suddenly understood something.

The wife said that she had done her best, but in fact she had a kind heart. She did this to force Ah Fei's mother to return the money owed, so that Ah Fei could be saved!

So he suggested that A Fei's mother get back the money owed.

This time, the old woman didn't refuse outright, as Ah Fei's life was at stake. Instead, she looked embarrassed and said, "How can I accept this? Besides, they may not be able to come up with the money."

"I heard from Ah Fei that the house in your hometown was demolished and there's some demolition compensation. Isn't that just the right amount to pay back the money?"

The old woman's eyes lit up. "Yes, how could I forget this? But will they think I'm after the demolition compensation? I promised my parents that I wouldn't share the house in my hometown with my brother. I don't want them to misunderstand..."

Ah Jie was so angry that he almost laughed: "Auntie, you are the creditor. You think about them, but do they think about you? Ah Fei is lying in the hospital ward waiting for money for treatment. Are you going to watch Ah Fei die for the sake of so-called face?"

The old woman glanced at her son in the intensive care unit, rubbing her fingers on the hem of her clothes. "Why are you trying to sow discord? My brother is not that kind of person. He loves Ah Fei the most. If he knew Ah Fei's current situation, he would definitely be willing to pay me back. He might even lend me money. I'll go find them tomorrow."

Only then did Ajie breathe a sigh of relief. His wife's trick was really powerful!

The silver Bugatti was driving smoothly on the road.

Qiao Ruoxi sat in the car and explained why she asked A Fei's mother to pay the high medical bills.

"I'm sorry for putting Third Master in a difficult position today. After this is over, I can pay for his medical expenses." Just consider it as a reward in exchange for spiritual power.

Ren Quan, who was driving, pricked up his ears. He was now completely in awe of Qiao Ruoxi.

He even hung a photo of Qiao Ruoxi at home, and would bow to her before going to work every day to feel at ease.

Now, after hearing Qiao Ruoxi say that A Fei's luck was borrowed because of borrowing money, he took it to heart and decided not to lend money to others casually in the future. Even if he did, he would ask clearly what the purpose of the money was.

I don’t know if San Ye will believe it, after all, San Ye is an atheist.

Pei Yaozhou tapped his knee lightly with his fingers and looked at Qiao Ruoxi with a raised eyebrow. "Why do you think I'll be embarrassed? Those people in Vanity Fair call me 'the living devil'. Do you think I'm the kind of person who would be morally kidnapped by something like this?"

Ren Quan sighed anxiously. His third uncle was just like that. He wouldn't explain when others misunderstood him, and as a result, his bad reputation spread far and wide. It would be fine for others, but wouldn't it be terrible if his wife misunderstood him?

Qiao Ruoxi, however, looked puzzled. A living King of Hell? Did the people of this world have some misunderstanding about the King of Hell?

Recovering her thoughts, Qiao Ruoxi coughed lightly: "I don't care what others say about you." She is not a fool, she will not spread or believe rumors.

Hearing this, Pei Yaozhou curled his fingers slightly, his eyes gradually becoming darker: "Am I so good in your eyes?"

Ren Quan gripped the steering wheel excitedly. It turned out that his wife was different from other women. The Third Master was worthy of her!

Qiao Ruoxi: ...It’s not good either. Thinking about the video I bought for ten thousand yuan last time, Qiao Ruoxi still feels a little painful.

But don’t say this kind of thing, it costs money!

Pei Yaozhou's mood was obviously much better than before, and the corners of his lips kept rising: "I didn't intend to pay for Ah Fei's medical expenses, so your decision is also my decision."

Ren Quan added with a smile: "Don't worry, Madam. We at Pei have our own work injury reimbursement process. However, we have signed a confidentiality agreement internally, so outsiders don't know. Once Ah Fei recovers, 90% of the medical expenses can be refunded."

"Stop talking too much." Pei Yaozhou frowned, but sent a message to the finance department privately.

[Transfer of 50,000 yuan, source: subsidy].

When Ren Quan saw the text message pop up on his phone, he couldn't stop smiling. He decided that from now on, he would visit his wife's photo every morning and evening!

The car suddenly became quiet. Qiao Ruoxi was originally looking at the scenery outside the window, but she saw Pei Yaozhou's figure in the reflective glass of the window. His hands were pressing his knees from time to time, and he seemed to be uncomfortable.

She slowly turned around, but Pei Yaozhou stopped immediately and turned to look out the window, like a child who had done something wrong.

This behavior made her inexplicably think of the little emperor she had raised.

So he smiled and put his hand on Pei Yaozhou's knee.
