Chapter 706 - 712: Is She... Being Disliked?
She herself was already in a desperate situation, barely able to help herself, so how could she worry about others?
"Hmph..." Zhang Xiaowen said no more and walked away as soon as she got into the elevator.
Chu Xiaoge originally wanted to follow, but Zhang Xiaowen quickly closed the elevator door and went downstairs alone.
Chu Xiaoge was stunned, what... was she disliked?
Clearly, Zhang Xiaowen had just offered to help her.
A woman’s heart is indeed an enigma...
Shaking her head, Chu Xiaoge still waited for the next elevator.
The subway was very crowded during the evening rush hour, and by the time Chu Xiaoge arrived at the hospital, she was already exhausted.
As she tirelessly calculated how, even if Fang Fang could lend her some money, it would still be difficult to scrape together her father’s surgery fee, she looked up and saw her mother pacing anxiously in front of the ward, looking worried.
With a sudden thud in her heart, she feared something bad had happened again.
Chu Xiaoge hurriedly ran over, grabbed Li Li’s hand, and anxiously asked, "Mom, what’s wrong? Why are you alone out here? Is it Dad...?"
"Xiao Ge, you’re off work?" Li Li finally came to her senses and looked at Chu Xiaoge.
"Yes, I came over right after work. Mom, did something happen?"
"Well... I don’t know if it’s good or bad news." Li Li hesitated but still told Chu Xiaoge, "A young man paid for your dad’s surgery fee this afternoon. The head nurse said his name is Shang Dongyuan... Xiao Ge, do you know him?"
Shang Dongyuan didn’t intentionally hide his identity and even asked the head nurse to take good care of the patient in room 503.
The nurses weren’t ones to keep secrets, so the news naturally spread quickly around the hospital.
Li Li didn’t find out too late, but she hadn’t called Xiao Ge immediately, fearing she might disturb her work.
As for Chu Xiaoge, the moment she heard the name Shang Dongyuan, her heart tightened.
She felt like a child caught doing something wrong, her eyes became evasive.
"Shang Dongyuan..." She murmured his name, never expecting that he would pay her father’s surgery fee.
Why would he do that?
He, who has always been aloof, wouldn’t come specifically to do a good deed, right?
Then... did he sense something? Or did he recognize her?
But even if he recognized her, so what?
To him, she was just one of the many women he had slept with...
"Mom, is Chuchu inside?" Chu Xiaoge suddenly narrowed her eyes, grabbed Li Li, and urgently asked.
"Chuchu was tired from playing and just fell asleep. Your dad hasn’t woken up yet, so I let Chuchu sleep on the sofa." Li Li didn’t understand why Xiao Ge suddenly changed the topic.
Hearing that Chuchu was here and fine, Chu Xiaoge finally felt relieved.
"Mom, please take care of Chuchu for me. I need to go handle something right now!" After speaking, without waiting for Li Li to respond, Chu Xiaoge quickly ran towards the hospital entrance.
"Wait, where are you rushing off to?" Li Li asked worriedly, but could only watch her daughter’s figure getting further away.
...
Chu Xiaoge originally didn’t want to have any more entanglements with Shang Dongyuan, otherwise she wouldn’t have disappeared for five years.
But now, Shang Dongyuan even knew about her father’s surgery?
