My Life For Your Affection - C42
Hearing my words, Li Weiwei’s face turned green and white, and her eyes started burning.
She glared at me and bellowed, “If you know what’s good for you, stay away from me! What I want, there is nothing that I can’t get! ” She threw off the words with a threatening look, started the car, and sped away.
I was standing there, my nose sore, when a taxi pulled up in front of me.
When I got in the car, I couldn’t hold it in and burst into tears. I scared the driver into thinking something bad had happened to me and wanted to call the police for me.
Being made a scene like this, the little discomfort in my heart gradually disappeared. Actually, it’s not that big of a deal. If they were to get married, what does it have to do with me?
When I got home, I went to my room, threw myself on the bed, and buried my head in the covers.
After these past few days of suffering, his body was exhausted, and his heart was also tired. He wished that he could just fall asleep and never wake up again.
“Ding Ding Dang Dang, Ding Ding Dang — —”
The sudden ringing of my cell phone broke the silence in the room. Annoyed, I pulled back my blanket. With a low growl, I took out my phone. After looking at the caller ID, my expression changed.
After a few seconds of hesitation, I still answered the phone, trying to slow my voice down. “Hello, Mr. Zhou.”
Lu Man, why did you suddenly leave? “He went missing for an entire afternoon and young master Jiang called me!” Mr. Zhou said angrily.
“Mr. Zhou, this is what I want to ask you. Young Master Jiang said you sold me to him, I don’t quite understand that. I didn’t sign a contract when I went to your place to be a model, did I?”
My low and angry voice made Mr. Zhou freeze for a moment. Then, he started to sneer. His tone of voice had lost its easygoing tone and he seemed arrogant instead.
“Lu Man, who do you think you are? A chaste girl or a good woman? “You have to be more sensible when you’re in the business, don’t take yourself too seriously. Young Master Jiang really thinks highly of you!”
“Thank you, I don’t need him to respect me! Mr. Zhou, I’ll hang up if there’s nothing else. ”
“Lu Man! What kind of attitude is this?! Don’t you want your salary? ”
He actually used money to threaten me, this scum! Li Weiwei’s face appeared in my mind, filled with endless hatred. I already knew that they were in the same group, but anger still surged in my heart.
It’s laughable that I thought I could handle it. I almost fell into their trap!
“I’m afraid I don’t have the fortune to take Director Zhou’s money.” After saying that, I hung up the phone and immediately blacklisted his number.
I threw the handmechanism to the side and buried my head in the blanket once more. My nose was sore. I had been struggling for an entire day, yet I didn’t manage to find anything. Not only did my arm get injured, but I was also bullied by Zhu Wuchen …
The more he thought about it, the more he felt wronged, and the more he hated Zhu Wechen. He was a bastard who was about to marry someone else, and yet he still dared to provoke me!
Do you think I, Lu Man, am easy to bully? I was hammering on the bed to vent my anger when the doorbell rang.
My body stiffened as I thought, could it be that Yang Jie came to my house?
I pretended not to hear, and covered my head with the pillow, but the voice persisted, as if it would not rest until it had achieved its goal.
Annoyed, I threw the pillow away, got out of bed, and went into the living room. I hid the knife behind my back in the living room before I went to open the door.
I walked to the door, took a deep breath and opened it. I was surprised to find that it was Charlene who was still pressing the doorbell. She was obviously relieved to see me coming out.
“I thought you weren’t at home? “You scared me to death.” She gave me a reproachful look.
I leaned over and let her in. I smiled awkwardly and put the knife back in place. “Why are you here?”
She looked at the knife with a different look in her eyes, then looked up at me quizzically. After catching a glimpse of embarrassment and awkwardness in my expression, she didn’t ask any questions.
“I heard the conversation between Director Zhou and Young Master Jiang. I knew they were looking for you, so I wanted to call you and ask about your situation. I couldn’t get through to your phone, so I was worried something might happen to you, so I came to your house to take a look.”
Charlene’s eyes were sincere, and my heart was warm, and my eyes were hot.
I walked over and hugged her, thanking her sincerely. “Thank you, Linlin. Thank you very much.”
Whether it was her helping me in my most difficult times or her concern for me at the moment, I was moved.
Xia Lin patted my back and smiled. “Why are you suddenly stirring up so much emotion?”
I smiled and let go of her. I felt a lot more relaxed as I asked, “Can I have a drink?”
“No need, I’m relieved to see that you’re fine. I still have things to do and will be leaving soon.” she said helplessly.
“Alright then.”
“But, what’s going on between you and Young Master Jiang? “He seems to care a lot about you, you guys …” She smiled vaguely.
“I have nothing to do with him, don’t think too much. On the contrary, I’ve accidentally offended him, so I have to avoid him. If they find you, you better let others know that I’m captured by Jiang Shaohua, and I’ll be done for!”
Charlene gave me a suspicious look. She wanted to ask something, but in the end, I didn’t.
“I got it, I’ll cover it up for you.”
“Linlin, thank you so much!”
“We are friends, there is no need to be so polite.” She gave me one last hug, smiled reassuringly, and I walked her to the door and watched her go.
At this moment, it was already midnight. His stomach was rumbling with hunger as he protested. After looking around the kitchen, he only found a cucumber that was less than twice as big. After washing up, he barely managed to eat it. However, he was still not full yet.
Just as I was about to go out and eat something, a text message arrived.
“Hello, Ms. Lu Man. Your account funds at St. Hua’s Hospital have been frozen, so the hospital is unable to deduct your fees. Please go to the hospital as soon as possible to complete the relevant procedures and pay the patient’s medical fees. Thank you for your cooperation!”
When I saw the message from the hospital, I was stunned. My hands and feet were cold and my mind was blank. I didn’t know how to react.
It wasn’t long before my mother called.
When I answered the phone, I felt my hands shake a little, and on the other end of the line, my mother was sobbing.
“Manman!” They… They’re going to throw your father out of the hospital! This group of heartless people! Your father still hasn’t woken up. They’re trying to kill him! ”
“What are all of you doing!?” Stop, all of you stop! You can’t do this! ”
I heard my mother’s heart-wrenching growls, and I couldn’t help but blush at the thought of her fighting the doctors alone in the hospital. I tried to calm her down, “Mom, don’t panic, I’ll be right there! Don’t be afraid, don’t start a fight with them, I’ll be right over! ”
“Please, don’t chase us away! My daughter is coming over, can I let her tell you?! “I beg of you …”
My mother’s initial cry turned into a humble plea for mercy, and that didn’t make the doctors feel any sympathy.
I clearly heard them say, “The hospital also has a rule. The ward where this patient is staying is one thousand yuan a day, not to mention medicine and nutrition. Your fund account in the hospital has already been frozen, so without payment, the hospital can’t let you stay here any longer.”
“Let’s wait a little longer!” Can you wait a minute? “I’m begging you, I’m begging you …”
