Chapter 71

Chapter 71 Why are you back?

After paying the medical bills, Yuan Xudong returned to Wang Manni's ward, moved a small bench, and sat in front of the hospital bed to accompany her. Wang Manni revealed her eyes from the quilt, looked at him and said:

"Mr. Yuan, please go back first. I'm fine now. I'll transfer the medical expenses to you via WeChat later. By the way, there's also your suit. I'll return it to you in two days, okay?"

"It's okay. We'll wait until you feel better. Didn't the nurse tell you to pay attention to your health and have a good rest for a week?"

As Yuan Xudong spoke, he stood up, took off the quilt covering Wang Manni's head, leaned over to tidy up her hair and said with a smile:

"Why are you covering yourself so tightly? Are you afraid that I will bully you?"

"No way, I'm used to covering myself up like this."

Hearing Yuan Xudong making fun of herself and having her body so close to her, Wang Manni defended herself in a low voice, her eyes dodge, then she looked at the infusion bottle on the boom to divert her attention and said:

"There are still three bottles left. I will go back after the loss. You can also go back and rest."

Looking at Wang Manni with a reddish complexion, Yuan Xudong followed her gaze and glanced at the infusion bottle and said with a smile:

"It's okay. I promised my aunt. Besides, what can you do if you don't have anyone with you? If you fall asleep, no one will know that the infusion bottle is empty. I'm here to watch. You have a good rest until the infusion is finished.

, I’ll take you home again.”

Seeing that Wang Manni wanted to say something else, Yuan Xudong stopped her directly and said:

"Okay, close your eyes and go to sleep. If you drive me away again, I will think you hate me."

Hearing what Yuan Xudong said, Wang Manni quickly explained:

"There's no one like you. I'm afraid of delaying your work, I."

Before she could finish speaking, Yuan Xudong stretched out his hand to cover her mouth and said with a gentle expression:

"Be obedient, go to bed quickly, don't talk, don't open your eyes, do you understand?"

"Hmm~~"

Nodding slightly, Wang Manni blushed and closed her eyes. Yuan Xudong sat in front of the bed, looking at Wang Manni whose eyes were moving wildly under her eyelids, knowing that she would definitely not be able to sleep.

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Yuan Xudong tentatively held her right hand and stroked it gently. Wang Manni trembled obviously, but she still didn't say anything or opened her eyes. She just let him play with it.

Huddle up under the quilt like an ostrich.

Not long after, the phone rang. Yuan Xudong put down Wang Manni's right hand, picked up the phone from the bedside table and handed it to her:

"Nini, your phone rang. It was your aunt."

"Hmm~~"

Wang Manni stretched out her right hand from under the quilt. When Yuan Xudong put the phone into her hand, she immediately retracted it and hid under the quilt to answer the call.

"Nini, how are you doing now? Your father and I are packing our bags and going to Shanghai tomorrow!"

"You don't need to come over. The doctor said it's acute nephritis, mild. I just have some symptoms and will be fine after taking some medicine."

"Okay, okay. Fortunately, I have your address. I called 120 and asked the ambulance to take you to the hospital. You really scared me and your father to death. If your mother hadn't called you today, you would have

You may pass out in the rental house, I feel numb just thinking about it now, you know?"

"Isn't everything okay now? You and dad should go to bed early, there's no need to come over!"

"I understand. You should pay attention to your health and don't work so hard. By the way, I called Yuan Xudong, the blind date I arranged for you, and asked him to go take care of you. Is he here?"

"Here we are, just stay with me."

"How is the young man? My mother has investigated carefully and it must be reliable. You are alone in Shanghai and there is no one to accompany you. It is time to find a boyfriend. Stop being picky.

At thirty, she is already an old girl, do you understand?"

"Mom, I won't tell you anymore. I'll call you when I get back. Should I hang up?"

"You hang up, remember to treat Xiao Yuan to a meal."

"I know, bye!"

"Bye-Bye!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Manni put the phone back on the bedside table, and then continued to sleep under the quilt. Yuan Xudong no longer disturbed her, but simply straightened the quilt and opened a small gap to prevent her from feeling too stuffy and unable to breathe.

Get angry.

Time passed, and when all the infusion bottles were empty, Yuan Xudong pressed the nurse bell, stood up, shook Wang Manni and said:

"Nini, after you lose, I'll take you home to rest."

Hearing Yuan Xudong's voice, Wang Manni sat up from the bed, picked up her phone and took a look. At 1:25 in the night, she glanced at Yuan Xudong and said:

"Mr. Yuan, I can just take a taxi back myself. You don't need to give me a ride."

"It's so late and it's not safe for you to take a taxi back alone. Just send me your address and I won't worry about the rest."

After the nurse pulled out the infusion needle and explained some precautions, Wang Manni picked up the oral medicine prescribed by the doctor and prepared to leave the hospital and go home. Seeing her frowning slightly and walking slowly, Yuan Xudong quickly supported her and said with concern

:

"Does it still hurt?"

"There is still a little pain, but the doctor said it is normal and it will be fine after taking medicine for two days."

Nodding slightly, Yuan Xudong directly held Wang Manni in his arms, walked towards the emergency room, looked down at her and smiled:

"It's still some distance from the parking lot. You can't take your time like this. I'll carry you there."

"Hmm~~"

Lying in Yuan Xudong's arms, she was carried out of the emergency room and all the way to the parking lot. Wang Manni's face turned crimson and her heart beat rapidly. She hugged Yuan Xudong's neck and buried her head in his arms, embarrassed to look at passers-by.

Putting Wang Manni in the passenger seat, Yuan Xudong accelerated to the destination according to the address she gave. If Wang Manni hadn't been ill, he felt that he could win the heroine if he worked harder today and complete the system.

After completing the Neptune mission, he got an investment opportunity that was bound to succeed, and then he joined the Jingyan Group and became a real capital boss, not just a rich man.

Upon arriving at the destination, Yuan Xudong carried Wang Manni and walked into the house she rented. The house was not small, about 80 square meters, with all living facilities. There was also a balcony facing the street. Standing on the balcony, you could see

Watching the busy traffic and bright lights downstairs.

Compared with Wang Manni's work income, this house is considered luxurious enough. The rent is likely to account for half of her monthly income, which is equivalent to working for the landlord.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary working-class people with low incomes will choose to share a house with others when they have no boyfriend or girlfriend to save some money on rent. However, Wang Manni rented an entire house by herself in a reasonably good location.

, even at the expense of a considerable proportion of the monthly income. It is obvious that he is ambitious and unwilling to wrong himself.

Seeing Yuan Xudong looking at her rental house, Wang Manni said embarrassedly:

"Mr. Yuan, please put me down. There is nothing to entertain you at home. I will pour you a glass of water."

"No, you can go to bed early. It's so late, so I won't disturb you!"

Shaking his head slightly, Yuan Xudong placed Wang Manni on the sofa in the living room, then stood up and said goodbye:

"Nini, I'm leaving. If you have any questions, please contact me via WeChat. Bye!"

"Bye-Bye!"

Seeing that Yuan Xudong was really about to close the door and leave, Wang Manni hesitated to speak, and finally said nothing. When he left the house and went downstairs, Wang Manni ran to the balcony and looked at the BMW downstairs.

After a while, Yuan Xudong appeared in her field of vision. He opened the car door and walked in while waving goodbye to her. Wang Manni also waved with a smile on her face. She waited until Yuan Xudong drove away and disappeared at the end of the road.

Slowly walked back into the house, muttering unhappily:

"Coward, you really have to leave!"

After a while, there was a knock on the door. Wang Manni looked happy and ran over to open the door and said:

"Mr. Yuan, why are you...?"

"What Mr. Yuan?"

After taking a look at Wang Manni, who was seriously ill, the charterer frowned slightly and said:

"Manni, your rental contract is about to expire. I just came back from playing mahjong. When I see the light in your room is on, I'll let you know that I'm going to sell the house. You should find a place to move as soon as possible."

Hearing what the charterer said, Wang Manni frowned slightly and said:

"Aunt Wang, the rent can be negotiated again. You suddenly informed me to move. I have to work during the day, so how can I have time to look for a house?"

"Do you think I'm threatening you to raise the rent?"

The charterer glanced at Wang Manni and said calmly:

"I charge 600,000 yuan a month in rent. Do I care about your rent? My old man lost money in the stock market and plans to sell two houses to pay off the debt. The one you live in is the worst one. There is no room for appreciation. If you sell it,

Don’t feel bad, okay, I just want to inform you, please leave within a week, bye!"

"Bye-Bye!"

After closing the door, Wang Manni sat on the ground, hugging her knees and keeping silent. She thought she was young and beautiful, but in the end she was nothing. The house she rented with half her income was just one of the dispensable properties for others.

Working hard every day is not as good as a middle-aged woman who plays mahjong every day. She can't earn one month's rent even if she works for three years without eating or drinking.

Just when Wang Manni was feeling sad, there was another knock on the door. She stood up, opened the door and said:

"Aunt Wang, I can"

"What Aunt Wang?"

"Mr. Yuan, why are you back?"
