?Chapter 1131: Youre Really Ugly
Zhu Yanqiu really didnt have any money. It had been a long time since his family had sent money, so he rarely went out with Fang Feifei anymore. In the past, whenever they had free time, they would go see movies. However, now, Zhu Yanqiu could only use his studies as an excuse.
Zhu Yanqiu was very smart though. He would invite Fang Feifei to the library to read. As she sat by the window, the sunlight that pa.s.sed through the window cast a beautiful hazy glow on her. Zhu Yanqiu would pick up a pen to slowly sketch Fang Feifei on paper.
He would occasionally write some vague and romantic love poems. He did his best to be romantic while not wasting money.
Fortunately, Fang Feifei was a cultured youth so this worked really well on her. She didnt notice the fact that Zhu Yanqiu was in financial straits at all.
Right now, Ning Shu was asking Zhu Yanqiu for the hospital fee. Zhu Yanqiu didnt have enough money on him so he could only push it off by saying that he didnt bring money and even coolly handed over his watch as collateral.
Ning Shu lifted her brows as she took the watch. This watch was a bit heavy and the craftsmans.h.i.+p was very refined. Even the thin clock hands had unique designs. There was no hint of large-scale quant.i.ty focused production. It was obvious with a glance that this cost quite a lot.
How much is this worth? asked Ning Shu.
Zhu Yanqius expression was smug. A thousand silver dollars. Is it enough to act as collateral for the hospital fee?
What the f*ck!? Ning Shu wanted to just jab his face with her tongs until it was beyond recognition. He spent a thousand silver dollars to buy a watch? Ha. Ha. Ha.
Right now, a single silver dollar could buy over 170 catties of rice. An ordinary family of three could survive for a year on just two or three silver dollars. Five hundred silver dollars was enough to buy an ordinary house.
The things that Zhu Yanqiu did were practically inhumane. He worked Zhu Suniang pretty much to the bone while he enjoyed life and wore luxury watches.
What use do I have for your watch? The hospital fee isnt even a thousandth of this watchs price. I dont want a watch, I only want money. Ning Shu tossed the watch back to Zhu Yanqiu and he hastily caught it. He said in annoyance, This watch is really expensive. If you break it, you wouldnt be able to afford the compensation.
Hospital fee, said Ning Shu mildly. It cant be that you dont have money, right? Faker. Youre wearing such an expensive watch when you dont have a single cent on you?
I already told you. I was at a march today so I didnt bring money. Zhu Yanqius face was bright red as he spoke. With the injuries on his face added on, his face looked purple and red.
Ning Shu simply stared at him without speaking.
In the end, one of his cla.s.smates help paid the hospital fee. Zhu Yanqiu immediately put his watch back on and thanked that friend, saying that hed definitely repay him.
After walking out of the room, Zhu Yanqiu saw Zhu Siyuan sitting on the book and reading. The little kid looked really serious. Zhu Yanqius interest was piqued, so he crouched down in front of Zhu Siyuan and asked, Little friend, why are you here alone? Whats your name?
Ning Shu was currently putting things away. When she saw that Zhu Yanqiu was interacting with Zhu Siyuan, her heart jumped. She was just about to get the child out of here when she heard Zhu Siyuan say to Zhu Yanqiu, Youre really ugly.
Zhu Siyuans voice was very childish, but his expression was very earnest. Ever since they had gotten to Shanghai, Ning Shu had made sure to dress Zhu Siyuan up very nicely so Zhu Siyuan looked nice, soft, and white. And right now, he was saying with such a serious expression, youre really ugly. Ning Shu didnt know whether to laugh or cry.
Zhu Yanqius current appearance was quite terrible. His face was pale and purple, and with the medicine applied, it was pretty much an unbearable sight. However, being told this by a kid made him feel embarra.s.sed and angry.
This kid seriously has no manners. Zhu Yanqiu threw down this remark and left.
The father and childs first meeting ended on bad terms. In reality, this pair of father and son must have clas.h.i.+ng birthdate characters, they never got along.
Ning Shu handed Zhu Siyuan to a nurse she was familiar with, then she said to Zhu Siyuan, Siyuan, be good and stay here to wait for Mom. Mom will be back very soon.
Zhu Siyuan nodded obediently.
Ning Shu took off her nurse uniform, put on a mask, and left the hospital, following after Zhu Yanqiu.
As of now, the sky was starting to darken. Zhu Yanqiu who was walking ahead didnt notice that someone was following him. As he was pa.s.sing by a small alley, Ning Shu took off her overcoat and quickly ran over to him. She threw her coat over his head, then used it to drag him into the alley.
