C4 So I Knelt Down to the People in the Hospital

I then walked to the door of my room in pain, subsequently opened the door, and lied down on the bed I had slept on for three years.

Falling asleep in a daze...

I had a dream about the first time meeting with Ji Qingxuan twelve years ago. At that time, I was only 10 years old, and I went to an abandoned construction site near the orphanage to play.

It was during the winter, so no one was at the construction site.

There, I saw Ji Qingxuan whose body was covered in wounds and was on the verge of death. I have tried to wake him up for a long time, but he did not respond, so, I thought he was dead. Just when I was about to go back to the orphanage to get the teacher for help, I heard a weak voice sounded behind me, "Save me."

At that time I was skinny and weak, I used a tricycle at the construction site, stumbled him out of the site, and brought him to the nearest hospital.

Because I had no money on me, the doctor in the hospital refused to save him, I knelt down and kowtowed to beg them.

Finally, a young doctor called the Vice Dean of the hospital, only then they agreed to send him to the surgery room.

I was waiting for him outside the surgery room all along.

Then when he woke up, he asked for my name, saying he would remember me and find me in the future.

But dreams are dreams, it is not the reality.

In the reality, when Ji Qingxuan woke up, I was not allowed to enter the ward and could only watch him from afar. Not long after, a group of men in black suits came, pushed out his bed, and transferred him to another hospital.

The bed passed me, and when he saw me, he lifted his pretty lips and smiled at me, clutching the hem of my shirt.

That was our last meeting.

However, that smile was imprinted in my heart, even after twelve years, the memory was still clear.

When I woke up, tears already soaked the pillow.

The sky had already turned dark while the bright moon was already hanging in the night sky.

I was feeling thirsty and hungry and my body was not in so much pain anymore, just wanted to go to the kitchen and grabbed a glass of water.

There was no one talking in the living room, so I thought that they should be asleep by now.

However, just as I walked to the stairs, I heard Qin Jiameng's voice coming from the living room, "How long is she going to stay here? Didn't you say you're going to make that room my dressing room?"

When I was wondering why she did not go home with Ji Qingxuan, then I heard my mother say, "Don't worry. I'll think of a way to get her to sign the agreement and get out of here tomorrow. Just bear with it for now, for that four percent of shares."

Four percent of shares?

If they were talking about me, I had totally got no idea about this.

But very soon, Qin Jiameng said the answer I wanted to know, "Seriously? You guys brought her back just for the four percent of shares grandma said. Four percent isn't much anyway. It's not like you can exchange it for money! Besides, now I'll still have to call her sister and pretend to be a good elder sister!"

"Do you think I don't feel disgusted seeing her? She's so old-fashioned. She devoured the food until there's nothing left in her bowl! Making me feel so embarrassed every time there's a guest coming to our house!"

"Right! When I gave her those unwanted clothes, she was so happy as if she has found treasures. It's really shameful to have such a sister. Seeing her get beaten up today, I feel so good!"

"Alright, when she wakes up tomorrow morning, I'll make her sign the agreement! And as for your grandmother, she'll definitely not pursue the matter of the wedding!"

I stood upstairs, listening to Qin Jiameng's and my mother's conversation, my hand was trembling as I held on to the stairs handle.

The dean of the orphanage taught us to empty our bowl and make sure not to leave a grain of rice behind so that the people that cooked for us would be happy too.

I did not like most of the clothes Qin Jiameng gave me, but I was afraid she would be disappointed, and I had no other clothes to wear, so I just accepted them gratefully every time.

In order not to be hated by the Qin family, other than the tuition fees being funded by the orphanage, the rest of my living expenses were earned from my part-time work.

The family members that I loved and carefully protected turned out betraying me.

Betraying me for the four percent of the company shares!

A perfect planned of the substitute marriage was just an excuse to kick me out of Qin Family!

I was the only one who was foolish enough to believe in the bonds of family.

Not knowing the family bond could turn out to be that ruthless!

I bit my lips tightly, trying my best to control my emotions, I limped down to the living room and asked, "So that's how it is, huh?"
