Chapter 225: Nonsense



These subsidies were earned with Yin Yunjie's life. Every penny represented his blood, sweat and sacrifice. She felt sorry for his efforts, but she also knew that she could not stop him from moving forward.

As sleepiness gradually came over her, she didn't struggle any more and soon fell into a deep sleep. Her dreams were quick and deep, even accompanied by soft snoring.

Yin Yunjie turned his head to look at Xu Qinghe beside him, his eyes filled with endless tenderness.

He was well aware of the hardships of long-distance travel, which was undoubtedly an extreme challenge, especially for such a young girl.

Not wanting to disturb her moment of peace and tranquility, he closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep again.

He was originally worried that the days of drowsiness would lead to insomnia, but the soft snoring in his ears unexpectedly gave him an unprecedented sense of security, and soon he fell into a sweet dream.

Xu Qinghe has always been known for her good sleep quality, and this night, because Yin Yunjie did not move unusually, she slept soundly from last night until 8:30 in the morning, and even curled up lazily in the quilt for a few minutes.

Just as she was busy preparing Yin Yunjie's morning wash and dressing, the doctor pushed the door open and began to perform routine examinations and change dressings.

"It's great to be young. It's amazing to recover so quickly."

The doctor's words were full of admiration, and it seemed that even professional doctors were moved by it.

There was a glint of sincere respect in the doctor's eyes. He looked at Yin Yunjie deeply, with an indescribable admiration surging in his heart.

Although Yin Yunjie's body was covered with scars, every time the dressing was changed, the medicine would touch his skin and inevitably irritate his wounds, causing waves of excruciating pain. However, he always pursed his lips tightly, without making any sound, just lying quietly on the bed, fully cooperating with every treatment action of the medical staff.

Xu Qinghe stood aside and bit his lower lip unconsciously after witnessing this scene.

The scars were wide and deep, and the damaged skin was even more shocking. She thought to herself that if she had suffered such torture, she would have screamed in pain. But Yin Yunjie, apart from the fine beads of cold sweat on his forehead revealing the pain he was enduring, everything else was normal, as if the fortitude in his body was enough to withstand all the pain.

"Your condition has stabilized and you can be transferred to a general ward. I remember you booked a single room with a private bathroom. This will not only provide a quieter environment, but will also be more conducive to your recuperation."

While explaining the patient's condition, the doctor also gave Xu Qinghe gentle instructions, especially reminding him to avoid any actions that might involve the wound.

Then he waved to a young nurse to help prepare for the room transfer.

The bed where Yin Yunjie was lying was equipped with flexible pulleys, and two young nurses could push it gently to make it move smoothly. However, as for the large and small luggage that Xu Qinghe carried, she had to handle it personally.

However, this is not a difficult task for her who possesses special abilities.

She quietly used her spatial ability to temporarily transfer overly heavy objects into that mysterious space, and then took them out after arriving. No one noticed the whole process, which seemed like magic.

Just as Xu Qinghe started to move the last pile of luggage, something unexpected happened.

The old lady with whom I had argued over a bowl of chicken soup yesterday happened to be on the same floor.

Seeing Xu Qinghe dragging a huge package by himself, the old lady mistakenly thought that he was unable to argue. Thinking of the regret of not getting the chicken yesterday, she was furious and rushed towards Xu Qinghe in a hurry.

Xu Qinghe had been on guard against this.

She was quick-eyed and quick-handed. The moment the old lady approached, she secretly stuffed a few heavy objects into the seemingly light package. Then she pretended to lose her balance and fell down. She took advantage of the momentum to swing the big bag in her hand, and it flew straight towards the old lady.

The old lady was very old, and faced with this sudden impact, she almost caused a disaster.

Her eyes rolled and she immediately fell to the ground, crying loudly: "Help, help, someone is beating someone!"

This scene fully demonstrates his cunning and calculation.

Xu Qinghe calmly stood up, picked up the package, and moved the heavy items inside back into the space. Looking at the old lady crying on the ground, she frowned slightly and said, "Auntie, your acting is really over the top. My package may be big, but it only contains a few pieces of clothing. How could it be so heavy? Are you trying to use this as an excuse to extort money? I advise you to forget it. This trick won't work on me!"

It was the peak time for early morning walks, and many accompanying relatives and patients witnessed the entire incident. After hearing what Xu Qinghe said, they nodded and agreed with her statement.

Everyone knew the character of this old lady who was used to scamming people. After all, she had lived in the hospital for a long time. Even if she was not familiar with the new Xu Qinghe, the behavior of this shameless old lady was known to everyone. She undoubtedly tried to take advantage of Xu Qinghe's youth to make ill-gotten gains.

"Look at the bag that little girl is carrying so effortlessly. How heavy could it be? Auntie, your act is too obvious. You'd better get up so as not to embarrass your child."

"I think she's just too greedy. If she doesn't take advantage of others, she'll feel uncomfortable."

"Oh, this is such a disgrace to the child!"

...The constant discussions around her made the old lady so angry that her lips trembled.

Normally, even if she was really committing fraud, a few words of criticism from others would not matter much, but today she was really hit hard, and her heart was full of grievances, but she was misunderstood as committing fraud. How could she be willing to accept this?

She gritted her teeth, ignoring the strange looks from everyone around her, and groaned in pain to Xu Qinghe: "Ouch, my waist, I'm afraid it's going to break. You have to compensate me, two hundred yuan, otherwise this matter will not end!"

Xu Qinghe sneered, looked around at the crowd, pointed at the old lady, and explained to everyone, "You all saw it, this is the epitome of a clingy person. Oh, I'm so unlucky, how could I have to run into someone like this! To be honest, I know why this old lady asked me for money. It's because yesterday I used half a chicken I brought from my hometown to make soup for my wife, and she insisted on having a share. I refused, so she held a grudge against me and came to me today to seek compensation. As for her claim of taking advantage of others, I categorically refuse. How could I do such a thing?"

"Taking advantage of opportunities?"

Upon hearing this, everyone present turned their eyes to the old lady, with a look of scrutiny and suspicion in their expressions.

In this era where integrity is the foundation, such behavior is naturally despised by people.

"What do you mean by taking advantage of others? I'm not doing that! Don't try to deny it. If you don't give me two hundred yuan today, I won't get up!"

The old lady was still lying on the ground, making a fuss.
