C41

Lin Wanbai looked up and saw that her grandmother had woken up at some point. Her elderly eyes were staring at her.

She hurriedly wiped the water mist off her eyelashes and pretended as usual with a tilt of her head.

"No way!" Lin Wanbai shook her head and patted the old man's hand, "Grandmother, what are you saying!?" "With your current condition, you must cooperate with the treatment in the hospital. You can't leave the hospital, we'll talk about it when the time comes!"

"I heard the nurse who checked the ward mumbling, are you going to operate on me again?"

How could Lin Wanbai not see the worry in the old man's eyes? Smiling, she said, "Don't worry. Don't worry about the medical fees. I can settle it!"

"Ai!" The old man let out a long sigh as tears welled up in his eyes. "Little White, Grandma is dragging you down!"

"No, I wouldn't have grown up so healthy without my grandmother!" Lin Wanbai held the old man's hand tightly and shook her head.

When Lin Yongyi kicked her out of the Lin Family, she was squatting on the side of the road like a stray dog. Even now, she still remembered her grandmother's staggering figure, crying and leaning on a walking stick to pick her up, if she didn't have her grandma, she would have already starved to death on the street.

"Grandma, don't say that!" Lin Wanbai didn't want to add to the old man's melancholy. She smiled and said, "Calm down, I'll take care of you!" I'll stay with you for a while, I'll leave later! "

Granny understood her pains and smiled and nodded.

The two of them chatted for more than two hours. Afraid that her grandma's mouth would dry up, Lin Wanbai got up and went out to fetch water from the thermos.

The hospital had a water room that provided hot water. It wasn't too far away. At the end of the corridor, when Lin Wanbai came back with the thermos filled up, the attending physician in the white coat stood there with a serious expression.

She felt a shiver in her heart.

Taking two quick steps, she saw her grandmother lying on the bed unscathed through the window of the ward.

"Dr. Xu, did you come over to talk to me about Grandma's second operation?"

"Not exactly."

"Huh?" Lin Wanbai was surprised.

Doctor Xu hesitated for a moment before saying, "Miss Lin, we can't operate on the patient anymore."

"Why? Is it because of the money?" Lin Wanbai was taken aback by these sudden words. She hastily expressed, "You don't have to worry, I'll definitely think of a way ?"

Dr. Xu shook his head, not responding to this. Instead, he tossed out another bomb, "Also, I'll give you twelve hours. You must be discharged!"

"What?" This time, Lin Wanbai was completely shocked.

It was like a thunderbolt that suddenly filled the sky on a sunny day.

"Sorry! "There's nothing I can do. This is an order from the academy." Dr Xu said rather helplessly, "I don't mind telling you the truth. I'm afraid that no hospital in the entire Ice City is willing to accept your grandma." Miss Lin, did you offend someone? "

His last sentence seemed to reveal something.

Lin Wanbai raised her head abruptly, her pupils narrowing at a rapid pace.

It was as if she couldn't believe it, but also as if she suddenly realized something, and a deep male voice sounded in her ears, "We have a long time to come, and one day, you will beg me for your help ?"

Lin Wanbai finally understood the meaning behind his words.

When he looked back at his grandma in the ward, she was still far away with a smile on her face.

Did he have to be chased out of the hospital twelve hours later?

Lin Wanbai staggered. Fortunately, the wall beside her did not fall and her vision blurred for a while.

"..."

When they returned to the ward, Lin Wanbai felt a chill down her spine and didn't show it on her face at all.

She poured water for her grandmother, then continued chatting with her, and when the sun went down outside, she got up and said she wanted to continue her part-time job and leave.

After leaving the ward, she did not go to work, but turned around and entered the safe passage.

He walked down a few steps and sat on top of it, hugging his knees.

"If you follow me, you don't have to come to this kind of place to smile apologetically, and you don't have to go to the Lin Clan and suffer the humiliation of coming here for money."

"I can give you two hundred thousand dollars a month. Jewelry, bags, houses, cars. As long as I am happy, I will satisfy you! "

"As long as you agree, everything I promised you will be effective."

"Lin Wanbai, it's too late."

"..."

Lin Wanbai covered her ears, but the male voice continued to drench her in.

The smell of hospital disinfectant filled his nose, reminding him of the determined attitude of the attending physician in the white coat.

If he couldn't contact Lin Yongyi, even if he could, he wouldn't dare to guarantee that he would get help.

The only one left was Xiao Yunzheng. The phone call that he made was the same as Lin Yongyi's, indicating that the phone was turned off. He realized that Xiao Yunzheng had left for America yesterday and could not save him.

As he sat there without moving, the sky outside gradually darkened.

Lin Wanbai leaned her face against the cold steel of the armrest, her shadow and her real person looked like they had both died.

The door of the passageway above was opened. There was quite a commotion as the sensing light in the corridor lit up.

Lin Wanbai seemed to be awakened, and at the same time, her last line of defense crumbled.

She slowly stood up and walked step by step out of the safe passage. She met the attending physician once again in the corridor.

Although he could not bear it any longer, Dr. Xu still warned him in time, "Miss Lin, what you said before was not a joke. If you don't leave twelve hours later, then we can only use force!"

How was this a threat from the hospital? It was clearly Huo Changyuan's.

"I won't." Lin Wanbai said softly.

He reached into the slanted backpack in front of him and touched the handle of the saber, as if something was quietly dying.

"..."

"Ding!"

Lin Wanbai walked out from the hotel elevator.

Parked in front of some fancy suite she wasn't familiar with, but she wasn't unfamiliar with either. She had woken up here three times before.

There was no one in the room, so she could only squat down by the door and wait, letting herself exist without a sound.

After an unknown period of time, a pair of bright shoes kicked her.

Lin Wanbai raised her head and saw a tall figure looking down at her from above.

Huo Changyuan was wearing a dark blue suit and a tie that was tied meticulously. It was exquisite and clean from head to toe.

"What are you doing here?"

Lin Wanbai opened her mouth. "I'm waiting for you ?"

Huo Changyuan didn't say anything else. He took out his room card and swiped it open, then indifferently pushed open the door and entered through her.

Although it was embarrassing, Lin Wanbai could only shamelessly follow behind him. Every step she took was extremely difficult.

Seeing Huo Changyuan sitting on the sofa with his legs folded, she took two steps forward and said with a trembling voice, "Mr. Howe, you said that you want me to follow you ?"

"I agree!"

Huo Changyuan remained unmoved after saying that.

The emotions in his eyes were sparse and ordinary, as tranquil as the waters of a lake.

Lin Wanbai gritted her teeth as she undid the buttons on her clothes one by one.
