At The Beginning Of The Novel, The Heroine Begged The Retired Villain - Chapter 29

Chapter 29:

A few minutes later.

Mu Xiao left the director’s room with a heavy heart.

Having just had a brief conversation, she understood the current situation.

Her Mum and Dad were indeed as sick as Ye Tian had guessed.

Thankfully, it was discovered early so they could fully recover after surgery.

Nevertheless, the surgery had to be done immediately.

If it were postponed, the risk of surgery would increase, and even if surgery were successful, there would be more or fewer side effects.

However, the family’s financial situation was already dire.

Her Grandma had been suffering from a serious illness for six months and required a lot of costly medicines every month.

If it weren’t for her excellent grades and the school covering her tuition fees, she might not be able to pay for university.

Due to this, she would help out around their family’s stall whenever she could during the week, hoping to help her parents ease the burden.

At this moment, thinking about this to herself, Mu Xiao was depressed.

But suddenly she remembered the person who had started this matter.

Ye Tian!

If Ye Tian hadn’t approached her, she would have been unaware of this.

“Should I call and thank him?”

Mu Xiao took out her phone but immediately froze in place again.

She wasn’t familiar with Ye Tian, and yesterday he just handed her his business card without any contact information. So she had no way to contact him.

“Classmate Mu, I just heard from the director. Are you alright?”

Just when Mu Xiao was thinking about whether she should ask the school principal for Ye Tian’s number, a familiar voice rang out behind her.

“I-I… I’m fine. Thank you Senior Ye for your concern. In fact, I was thinking of calling you but realized I didn’t have your number.” Mu Xiao was embarrassed but continued, “Thank you so much, senior. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have known that mum and dad were sick.”

Even though this matter was nothing to Ye Tian, it was a matter of life and death for her parents, so she naturally was grateful.

The financial situation of Mu Xiao’s family wasn’t that good, so she could only express her gratitude verbally. When she had the chance, she would repay them properly.

“Is it only verbal thanks?” Ye Tian asked with a smile.

Considering Mu Xiao’s personality and slightly embarrassed expression, Ye Tian could more or less understand her thoughts in her mind.

“Eh… I-I…” Mu Xiao froze.

It wasn’t that there was anything wrong with Ye Tian’s statement.

It was just that as a beautiful-looking girl when faced with a rich second generation saying such words, it was inevitable that her heart would overreact.

In the morning, her best friend sent her a video, and that was her main concern.

The content was Ye Tian’s statement that he and Tang Ruoyu had terminated their engagement.

Now that she thinks about it, Ye Tian and Tang Ruoyu didn’t talk much during yesterday’s dinner.

This was what made her subconsciously overthink.

She stood frozen in place for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

“I heard from the director that your parents’ surgery and the follow-up treatment will cost 50,000 yuan, how about we make a deal?” Ye Tian didn’t give Mu Xiao a chance to consider or refuse and directly added, “Yesterday, your cooking was delicious, how about you cook for me for three months and I’ll help you pay for their surgery and treatment costs!”

“Hey, don’t get me wrong, I just want to help you. If you’re worried, you can go to Ruoyu for confirmation. She will be staying at my place.”

Mu Xiao froze again at her words.
