I looked through the glass of the door at the people in the next room. There were all kinds of tubes stuck all over them, as if without them there would be no tools to hold her.
"Is there no other way?" I couldn't help but want to cry, but it was still hard for me to accept the reality before me. The red cloud patted on my shoulder, but I could clearly feel her entire body trembling.
Big price? Medicine? That night, when Redcloud and I went back, we went through our boxes and found only four bank cards and two passbooks. The total amount of money in there was only half a million.
Whether or not 'Yin Zun' can reopen in the future is uncertain. We don't know whether or not our job is done yet, so what can we do?
"Why don't you go and beg Jin Zicheng? Who knows, maybe 'Yin Zun' could really resurrect from the dead? This way, we can continue to work and earn money to treat Mo Mo's illness. "
Hearing what Hong Yun said, I wavered. The words that Sister Yun had said before didn't have any effect as much as a single one of Hong Yun's. I looked at the string of numbers on my cell phone screen and unknowingly pressed the dial button.
"Did — did you sleep?" I'm not sure if it's a good idea to call at this late hour.
"Not yet." The man's voice was very cold, and the dense and cold air seemed to have travelled through electricity to my ears. I couldn't help but shiver.
I silently cursed in my heart: Jin Zicheng, would he not be like Yi Xudong, to be a little more friendly with others? He even said that Yi Xudong's motive was not pure, but now it seems that he was the bad guy.
"I …"
"If you have anything to say, say it tomorrow. I'll send someone to pick you up at 6 o'clock tomorrow night." He interrupted me without waiting for me to finish speaking. After hearing what he said, I, who was already nervous from the start, couldn't help but worry about what was going to happen tomorrow.
It was a sleepless night, and the next morning a thick black eye appeared.
Red Cloud stared at my face for a long time. "Worried?" Her voice was a rare silence, no longer tinged with the dust and wind from before.
But how could I have the heart to think about her? I shook my head, more or less impatient. After getting up to wash up, fatigue engulfed me as it swept across the sky. Everything in front of my eyes was pitch black.
"What's wrong?" "If you're not feeling well, then rest. I'll go take care of Mo Mo today." She patted me on the shoulder, and her voice was surprisingly gentle. It seemed that what had just happened could really make a person grow.
I nodded, wanting to smile at her, but couldn't. I'm really afraid of meeting Jin Zicheng. The other party's venomous tongue and tone of voice were filled with mockery.
As the time approached, I felt a great sense of fear. I looked at my watch, which was on my wrist, and saw that it was 5: 15. He raised his hand again, and it was 5: 17 …
"The red cloud still hasn't returned, so I called Sister Yun." I agree to help you, but you have to give me a million dollars. "
Presumably, to the Sister Yun, this' Yin Zun 'was more than just this one million. The person on the other side of the phone answered straightforwardly, "Sure, sure, sure. One million." She must be grinning from ear to ear by now, but in comparison, my mood is even heavier.
I can't forget that night's kiss, but I can't forget even more that Jin Zicheng kept finding trouble with me again and again.
At six o'clock in the evening, a car actually appeared downstairs. It was the black Hummer, the one I once thought was unsuitable for him.
The moment I opened the door, I saw him sitting in the back seat, and my heart skipped a beat. He called out very respectfully, "Crown Prince."
"She really is a prodigal woman, speaking in such a snobbish manner." His eyes were half closed, and I seemed to be used to it. I couldn't be bothered to argue with him about so much.
When I got to his house, I saw the food on the table and the candles and knew that this was a feast. He pulled out a chair. "Sit." To be honest, this is the first time I feel that Jin Zicheng is gentle, and this gentleness doesn't seem to suit him at all.
This made me think of Yi Xudong, that very gentle man, who smiled like the sun.
"Qing He." His voice was very low, with a hint of oppression in it. I looked up at him, and there was an unspeakable sense of oppression in my heart.
He sat across from me, and I saw only this man, with no mind for the people and things around me.
"I know why you're here today." The corners of his mouth curled up as he smiled complacently. I didn't have any intention of hiding anything. I nodded my head and said, "Since you know, then I'll be going straight to the point."
"I need a sum of money. Only by letting 'Yin Zun' reopen would I be able to continue making money and also obtain the good treatment fee that the Sister Yun gave me." I spoke plainly, trying to lower myself into the mud, so that if he wanted to mock me, he would also feel bored, so he simply stopped ridiculing me.
"Since it's for the money, why can't I have it?" He sounded like he was joking, and when he spoke, he wasn't serious at all. I also have a headache, I really don't know what kind of point Jin Zicheng has set his eyes on me, and actually wants to support me time and time again.
"I've said it before, I don't want to be the type of person who destroys a person's family. You are a person with a fiancee, so if you raise me, I will be the third party. That's why I can't agree." My demands are so low, and I speak so sincerely. Surely he should give up?
"You mean for me and my fiancée to break off the engagement?"
Hm? Did he misunderstand me? All I wanted to say was to reject him, so why did I bring up the matter of annulling the engagement?
"No, no, no." If he were to cancel the engagement, then the words I just said would be like lifting a stone to smash one's own foot.
"Then wouldn't it be better to just be my lover?" The same dangerous tone scared me. Taking a deep breath, he gave him an answer, "I really don't know why others say that you have a good brain. In this matter, you don't understand what I'm saying at all!"
Actually, I am very clear in my heart that I do not understand at all. It is obvious that I did not listen. In his eyes, I was at most a piece of goods for a transaction.
Why does the cargo talk? Even if they were talking, why would they need to listen?
"Since you're here to beg me, why don't you have this kind of attitude? Isn't Miss Qing He a little too naive? "
"I admit that I really did lose my composure just now. No matter what, I came to beg for his help. If I had a request, I would have to be respectful to him." "Sorry." I said it softly, completely overshadowed by the man's laughter.
"Then I'll give you a chance to compensate me, okay?" He deliberately leaned close to me, and a warm current of air rushed into my ear, making my blood boil and making my face flush red.
"You're quite sensitive." His voice was hoarse with laziness and a hint of pride. I half closed my eyes. Since I came here today to beg him, then I will just throw caution to the wind. I straightened up, but the softness of my chest pressed against him. But I didn't see anything wrong with the person in front of me. Even the look in my eyes didn't change.
"This action of yours makes me doubt if it's the first time you've done this." After saying that, I felt my body rise into the air.
His arms were wrapped around my waist, making me uncomfortable. His fingertips were somewhat cold, and they were completely devoid of the scorching heat of others. There was a thin layer of cocoon on his palm, so touching his waist would make him feel uncomfortable. I tried to push him away, but he held me tighter. " "Don't forget that you've come to find me today. If you serve me well, I will naturally agree to your request."
