In that short day, the car accident had taken a lot of lives, during that first aid. Xu Ran sat in the car and watched helplessly as the patient who was giving oxygen closed his eyes and his pupils dilated.
That day, Xu Ran felt that the heavens had taken away a lot of her life.
She suddenly understood why Tan Qiuxu had arranged her to work with the car crew.
"What do you think? Do you think you're useless after this day? So many lives have been taken by your hand and you're slowly walking away. Do you hate yourself? Do you really want to find a place to commit suicide?" Tan Qiuxu said this to the dazed Xu Ran when he went to drink tea.
Xu Ran turned her head and stared at Tan Qiuxu. Her eyes were no longer as gentle and harmless as they usually were, nor as hysterical as Grandma Mao's after she had left. Today, her eyes were very calm, but it was not a lifeless silence. It was calm and tranquil, encompassing everything.
"Thank you, Director." she said suddenly.
Tan Qiuxu felt his heart being tugged at by something. In his mind's eye, he would see her waving at him in the distance on the street that day.
"Humph!" Tan Qiuxu frowned uncomfortably. He squeezed out the word from his nose and ran away as if he was escaping, but his green mug was still in the tea room.
Xu Ran looked at Tan Qiuxu's back and smiled.
It was already time to get off work. Xu Ran touched her pocket and thought to leave early today. Since her grandfather had come, she still hadn't come to buy some delicious food for the old man.
After putting on his coat, he heard Xiaowen say that there was a bakery in the west of the city that made very delicious pastries with very little sugar, which suited the tastes and bodies of the elderly. Although the west side of the city was quite far from the emergency room, Xu An still decided to head over. It was rare to see so many patients out of work today, so she really wanted to make the old man happy.
Xu Ran gave up on taking a taxi. She lived a poor life and had very little pay for interns. Although she had no place to spend money on, she could save 2000 dollars a month on public transportation and meals, but …
"An Xin, are you busy right now?" On the other side of the phone was a woman's soft voice, sounding tired.
"Mother Hui, I'm not busy. Did Hui Hui get sick again?"
If I didn't have no other choice, I wouldn't have come looking for you. An An, I really have no other way, sob sob …" As she spoke, her mother began to cry.
"How much do you still need? Tell me the amount, I will transfer all my money to you tonight. It's not enough, I'm thinking of a way."
Hanging up the phone, Xu Ran looked up at the sky. It was a dark blue, the bright stars were embedded in the dark blue curtain, but Xu Ran felt as if her heart was being pressed down by a huge rock. There were still many children like Hui Hui, who were waiting for her money to save them.
He found an automatic depositing machine, and according to the account given to him by Hui Hui Wei's mother, Xu An sent over all the money in his bank card. However, the operation fee was a full 200,000 yuan, and the Hui family who sold the house to begin with could no longer take out that money.
"Sister Chen, I want to talk to you. Can I make an advance payment for the next six months?"
Elder sister Chen was a bit surprised to hear Xu Ran's words. She knew Xu Ran's character, but she was in such a hurry to get close to two hundred thousand yuan …
What was money for?
"An An, I can't decide on this, if you have to foresee 10 days or half a month, I will give it to you, but you need to take away 200,000 yuan this time, for no reason at all. If I give it to you, then I won't do this anymore." Sis Chen was fiddling with her charming red fingernails on the other end of the phone.
"Sis Chen, can you help me?" She knew that this person called Chen Hong was known for acting in front of others and acting behind their back. Thus, Xu Ran would usually avoid interacting with her as much as possible. She just danced, took the money, and left. But today, she had no choice but to come and beg Chen Hong.
"How about I report it to the boss and see what he says."
"Thank you, Sis Chen."
Not long after, Chen Hong's phone call came in. The boss wanted Xu Ran to go over and sign the contract right now.
Xu Ran had already thought of this. After signing a contract with a place like that, no matter how innocent a girl was, if word were to spread out, no one would think she was innocent.
When he pressed a red handprint on the contract, Xu Ran's hand trembled.
Chen Hong smiled. Her fiery red lips, along with her long and thin teeth, were especially white. Under the light of the lamp, they shone with a white light, making her look somewhat terrifying.
"If you press your palm, you won't have a chance to go back on your words. Look, girl, I've already said that with your looks and figure, sooner or later you'll become a big shot here, and you'll even become a rich lady. "Come to my place, I have everything that you want. Do you have anything that you want?"
Xu Ran had said these words in front of Guan Jingyi. She hadn't felt embarrassed at the time. Now that they heard it from Chen Hong's mouth, they truly felt that they were quite despicable back then. Even the government's Jingyi probably thought so too.
Xu Ran's lips curved up into a sneer as she wiped her eyes. She then took the money and left.
He had originally wanted to buy some pastries for his grandpa, but now that things had turned out this way, Xu Ran was no longer in the mood.
