In the hospital on Monday.
“Sister Chi, here’s the medication that you requested.” The nurse from the Gynecology department was quietly sizing her up.
“Okay, thank you.” Chi Enen feigned ignorance and put away the ointment in her bag calmly. This brand of ointment was specifically for application on the vaginal area. It was not available for sale outside and could only be found in the hospital. When she woke up in the morning, she discovered that that part of her body was badly swollen. If she did not apply any medication, she could not go to work at all.
The Gynecology department was the most crowded place in the hospital. The seats there were all taken up. Chi Enen endured the discomfort caused by walking and headed outside.
Just as she arrived at the corridor, her cell phone suddenly beeped.
She frowned, thinking that it was a message from Li Beijue. Although she did want to view it, she was afraid of angering him. Hence, she found a quiet corner and took out her cell phone.
To her surprise, there was in incoming call just as she took out the phone, Chi Enen took a glance at the phone number and furrowed her brows. “Hello?”
It was uncertain what was said on the other side of the phone but her frown deepened. “Yes, I’m back in the country. I’m at the hospital in the city now. We can talk again when you are here. I’ll wait for you at the back door.”
Half an hour later.
Chi Enen headed to the back door of the hospital.
She saw a woman standing at the door when she arrived.
The woman was in her early forties. She had on thick makeup that did not match the current times and the age of her face. It was already early spring but she was still wearing mink. She was holding an out-of-fashion branded bag in her hands, giving out a strong materialistic feel!
At this moment, she was pacing to and fro at the back door, looking vexed and annoyed, and cursing from time to time.
“Why hasn’t that wretched girl come yet?”
“How long does she want me to wait?”
She was impatient with the waiting and had just wanted to retrieve her cell phone to make another urgent call.
Just as she turned back, she saw Chi Enen who was already behind her. She screamed and jumped in shock. Immediately thereafter, she smiled embarrassingly. “Enen, it’s you. When did you arrive? Why didn’t you call me? You gave me a shock.”
Chi Enen could not be bothered to beat around the bush with her. She went straight to the point. “You’re looking for me. Is there anything wrong?”
Lin Meiqi was cursing and scolding ‘bastard’ in her heart. The embarrassment in her smile intensified. It was apparent that her slightly swollen face had gone through countless face-lifts. She reached out her hands and gave Enen’s shoulder a friendly punch, rebuking, “Why are you talking to me in this manner? Can’t I look for you? Auntie heard that you have returned from abroad. You’re a woman and you’re living alone. Auntie is worried that you will be bullied by others outside and thus came to take a look at you.”
If Chi Enen were to believe this nonsense, she would be a moron!
This auntie of hers never visited unless she needed something. She immediately came knocking on her door after knowing that she had returned from abroad. Certainly, it must not be something good.
At the very least, it was definitely not because she was concerned about her.
Chi Enen was feeling unwell and did not wish to waste her time. After hearing Lin Meiqi’s words, she was expressionless. “Auntie, are you done with your talking? I’m not feeling well. I need to do something first.”
She turned back, preparing to leave.
Lin Meiqi was instantly dumbfounded as she did not expect her to really leave!
Without the slightest bit of hesitation, she chased her and grabbed Chi Enen’s wrist. “Enen, wait a minute! I still have something to tell you.”
Chi Enen paused her steps, turned back and waited coldly.
At the sight of her reaction, Lin Meiqi’s heart almost froze. However, at the thought of her objective, she had no choice but to force out a few drops of tears as she held on tightly to Chi Enen’s hand. “Enen, save me and your uncle! You’re the only one who can save us now!”
Chi Enen drew her brows together and faced her. “What happened to the both of you again?”
“I… ” Lin Meiqi faltered. “We owe a loan shark six hundred thousand yuan.”
