Shortly after, Ye Mengyan caught up to me. She reached out and grabbed my arm, asking me nervously.
āXiaoyun, what are you doing?ā
Only then did I realize that my mind had wandered off.
Waking up from my daze, I hurriedly calmed myself down and replied to Ye Mengyan:
āOh, Iām sorry. My eyesight isnāt great, I must have taken a wrong look.ā
āThe inpatient department is this way, keep going!!
āAlright!
On the way, Ye Mengyan continued to talk with Shen Yishu on the phone.
Ye Mengyan was one of those gentle little girls who, even when angry, still spoke softly.
We arrived at an ward on the third floor of the inpatient department.
1 saw an old woman lying in a hospital bed. She must be over fifty years old, but her hair was completely white, her complexion was waxen, yet her eyes were kindly and soft.
āMom, Iāve come to see you. This is my good friend Xiaoyun!ā
Ye Mengyan introduced me.
āHello, auntie!ā šrešššššošel.cšØš
1 greeted her.
āXiaoyun⦠dear, sit down! Youāre Mengmengs friend!ā
Mother Ye was in polite and always spoke gently, despite being ill.
She even handed me an apple from her bedside table and asked Ye Mengyan to peel it for me.
āAuntie, how long have you been sick?ā
Ye Mengyan was very filial. After we entered, she didnāt stop for a moment, helping to tidy up the room and wiping the table.
She also sorted out Mother Yeās dirty laundry and changed the half-full urine bag.
She didnāt mind the mess or the effort.
Mother Ye obviously felt keenly for Ye Mengyan, and she sighed.
āIāve had kidney disease for four or five years now. Iām so hard on Mengmeng! Sheās constantly working to pay for my treatment. Sheās a good girl, if it wasnāt for fear of leaving her alone, I wouldnāt even want to live.ā Ye Mengyan stood to the side with tears in her eyes,
āMom, donāt say things like that. Youāre going to get better.ā
āThatās right, Mengmeng! The kind person who has been paying for your education, make sure to repay them one day after you graduate! The most important thing in life is to remember the source of kindness that one has received! ā
āl know, Mom!ā
After chatting with Mother Ye for a bit, I took out all the cash from my bag and stuffed it into Mother Yeās hand.
āAuntie, I came in a hurry and didnāt bring any gifts. This money is just a small token from me, you can use it to buy some supplements!ā
āHey, how can I accept this!ā
Leaving the ward, I felt a bit oppressed.
Mother Ye, despite her poverty, exuded a certain dignity! Do you think she knows that her daughter is selling herā body for money?
āXiaoyun, thereās no other reason I brought you here today⦠I just didnāt want you to misinterpret my relationship with President Gu, so I brought you along.ā
I asked curiously, āMisunderstand? What misunderstanding?ā
Ye Mengyanās eyes were clear, she gave Mother Ye a look, then turned to me and smiled, āYes, a misunderstanding!ā
āFour years ago, my mother got kidney disease⦠Our hometown is in the countryside with no treatment facilities. I had to bring my mother to the city. As you know, I didnāt have any money on me. The treatment costs up to tens of thousandsā¦so I found President Gu. I kneeled in front of him and cried for a long time. He pitied me, so he sent my mother to the hospital!ā
Ye Mengyanās words surprised me a bit, as I really didnāt know she had such a history with Gu Yuanzhou!
āThen why didnāt you go and find Song Yun?ā
āOh, at that time, Sister Song was pregnant and she was bedridden because of severe morning sickness. So, how could I bother her?ā
āBut if you are just ordinary friends, why would he buy a house for you?ā Ye Mengyan laughed lightly.
āXiaoyun, listen, I knew you would overthink it! How could President Gu possibly buy such an expensive house for someone like me?ā
āBut donāt you live there?ā
āActually, Iām not sure who bought the house, I only know that President Gu occasionally stays there. My mother requires dialysis once a week. So that she doesnāt have to stay at school, President Gu gave me the passcode for the house. Whenever my mom comes up from the countryside, she can stay there overnight.ā
Ye Mengyanās explanation made everything clear.
āSo you and President Gu, you really have no relationship at all?ā
āOf course not! How could he ever be interested in me!ā
I smiled and nodded slightly.
Ye Mengyan has a boyfriend, and she has made clear her relationship with Gu Yuanzhou. It seemed I was overthinking things?
Could it really be that thereās no relationship between these two people?
After bidding Ye Mengyan farewell, I left the ward.
To my surprise, I ran into Shen Yishu.
Shen Yishu was holding a fruit basket and flowersā¦
āXiao Shen, are you here to visit a patient?ā
āYes! Mengmengs mom is hospitalized here, so I came to visit!ā
āGood luck! ā āActually, I came to negotiate with Mengmengā¦ā
āNegotiate what?ā
āNever mind, Iāll tell you next time!ā
Shen Yishuās phone rang just then. Without time to continue talking, he turned and rushed into the elevator.
I gave him an OK sign with my hand, then watched him go into the elevator.
The next morning, I went to the bank with Wenya.
āDamn, arenāt you afraid the bank security will catch you for taking things under somebody elseās name?ā
Wenya whispered in my ear.
āl have a big locker deposited here, it shouldnāt cause any troubles, you wait for me outside!ā
Iāve been to this bank many times and know the routine very well. Itās early in the morning, and the security guard is still having breakfast.
Identity checks are generally not required for big lockers, although there is a security check gate there, the guards wonāt come at this hour.
As long as 1 donāt show any suspicious behavior, no one will suspect me.
In fact, this is all my money, so I have nothing to be guilty of.
1 calmly opened the safe deposit box like an old hand.
There were many pieces of jewelry insideā¦
Just as I was about to pick a few, 1 suddenly heard footsteps behind me..
