CEO Daddy, Hold Me High - C2
Five years later
In the ward, Jiang Junyue was leaning against the bed as she stared at her daughter who was sitting on the sickbed. Her young and tender face was as pale as a piece of white paper.
A few minutes earlier, the doctor had issued a final notice that if she didn’t have surgery scheduled for a week, her daughter would be permanently blind in her left eye …
Jiang Junyue gently caressed her daughter’s hair, which had turned yellow due to malnutrition. Her eyes touched the gauze covering her left eye, and her eyes were filled with grief and heartache.
“Mommy, why are your eyes red?” The sweet voice interrupted Jiang Junyue’s thoughts. She held her face in her soft hands. Her head was tilted as she asked innocently.
“Mommy’s eyes have lost their lashes. It hurts. She wants Rolo to blow on them.” Jiang Junyue smiled and found an excuse to lie to her.
“Okay, Luo Luo will help Mommy blow it. Huhu ~ Mommy, do you still hurt?” Rolo took it for real and blew on Jiang Junyue’s eyes a few times.
Jiang Junyue’s heart melted from the warmth of her daughter’s actions. She rubbed her little head and said with a smile, “Rolo is so awesome. Mommy’s eyes no longer hurt.”
Now was not the time to cry. Rolo’s illness needed money, so she had to think of a way to solve this problem.
“Rolo, Mommy has something to take care of today. I’ll ask auntie to come and accompany you. Can you please wait for Mommy to come back?”
“En, Mommy, go ahead. I am already a young adult and will take good care of myself.” Rolo nodded heavily, patting his chest as he spoke.
Jiang Junyue was amused by her actions. She scratched the tip of her nose and left the room after saying a few words.
Jiang Junyue went back to the Ye Family and got stabbed in the ear by a sharp voice when she entered the house. She frowned slightly and revealed a puzzled expression.
“Mom, what happened?” Jiang Junyue pushed the door open and asked in concern. She saw Mother Ye talking on the phone with a surprised expression on her face.
When Mother Ye saw that her daughter-in-law had returned, she shouted angrily into the phone, “Jun Yue is back! Let’s talk when we get home!”
After hanging up, he looked at Jiang Junyue who was standing beside him. He looked displeased and asked, “Why are you not at the hospital watching over Rolo at this time of the night?”
“I’ve hired a nurse to watch. It’s fine.” Jiang Junyue took out the medical records and the notice to show to her mother as she spoke.
Jiang Junyue thought about how her mother hadn’t had a good rest for months in order to take care of Rolo. She finally persuaded her to go back and rest, so how could she ask her mother for help? Only then did he explain, “My mom is sick and is resting at home. I’ve hired a nurse for half a day and she won’t waste much money. I’ll tell you about something when I get home.”
“You just need to say it over the phone. Do you still need to go home?” Mother Ye looked at her up and down with disdain, only to see that she was holding a document in her hand, so she asked: “What is that?”
Jiang Junyue took out the notice and handed it to Mother Ye. He was about to ask her for money, but was interrupted by Mother Ye, “The surgery fee is one hundred and fifty thousand? Isn’t it just an eye? Spending so much money! ”
“Don’t even think about it, your family spent all their money on Luo Luo’s disease. Even if you kill me, you won’t be able to take out 150,000.”
Mother Ye’s words were undoubtedly a sharp knife, but she didn’t blame Mother Ye for being merciless, and only humbly continued: “Mother, I know my family spent a lot of money on Luo Luo’s sickness, even if I borrowed it ok? “Once Rolo’s eyes are healed, I’ll make money and return it to you.”
“Lend it to you?” Can you afford it? ”
Mother Ye looked at Jiang Junyue, the disgust on her face obvious. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Jiang family was willing to marry her son as a dowry, she wouldn’t have even cared about this daughter-in-law. Now there was another sick money loser, he really had to suffer misfortune for eight lifetimes before marrying such a lost star.
Jiang Junyue still kept her head down. She gritted her teeth and said, “Mom, when I married Tian Ming, the gold jewelry that my mom and dad gave me was worth tens of thousands of dollars. “Can you return it to me first? I’ll pay the first period of the operation…”
Hearing Jiang Junyue mention the jewelry, Mother Ye’s eyes flickered. She suddenly stood up, pointed at Jiang Junyue’s nose and cursed loudly, “You were the one who gave the jewelry to me voluntarily, so there’s no reason for me to spit it out. When you first married over with a big belly, I already suspected that someone else’s bastard had made my family suffer. “Now that I think about it, Luo Luo doesn’t look like she’s trying to add to the story. Besides, this doctor said that the probability of her being inherited is very high. None of us in the Ye Family have this disease!”
Even though Jiang Junyue was so angry that her entire body was trembling, she still suppressed her anger and tried her best to calm her heart. Remind yourself that you are here to borrow money, not to quarrel.
Suddenly, the door creaked open, breaking the deadlock between the two …
