Chapter 119 - Narcissist Marmot

Even for a beauty like Wei Xingyue, when she first glanced at Sun Yiyi, she was in a daze.
From appearances along, Wei Xingyue thought that she wouldn’t lose to anyone. She wasn't on the same level as those idols who pretended to be pure.
If there was anyone who emitted a sense of tranquility and carelessness of the world, it would be Wei Xingyue’s younger sister, Puti. She was definitely the best and wasn’t distressed at anything.
But when Wei Xingyue saw Sun Yiyi, she was surprised that whether it was the pure appearance, or the taintedness from Puti’s actions, she could not compete against the girl in front of her eyes. Sun Yiyi seemed to have combined the ‘pure’ features from both Wei Xingyue and Puti and seemed to be a girl walking from a magical realm.
In that instant, Wei Xingyue seemed to understand why s.h.i.+ Lei acted indifferent to her charisma. With a girl like this by his life, it was indeed easy for him to ignore other women.
Wei Xingyue clarified Sun Yiyi’s ident.i.ty at first glance. It was included in s.h.i.+ Lei’s background check, except the girl on the photo was only delicate, and it was too different to the girl who was close to tears right now.
Wei Xingyue took the initiative and got off the car as she greeted s.h.i.+ Lei. When Sun Yiyi saw Wei Xingyue, she was surprised by her beauty, but did not overthink as she thought it was the driver of the online taxi which he called.
Wasn’t it dangerous for such a beautiful girl to be an online taxi driver? —— Sun Yiyi thought of this as they helped her mother into the car.
Sun Yiyi’s mother complained: “s.h.i.+tou, I’m fine. I just don’t feel that well, you don’t need to do this.”
s.h.i.+ Lei said on the front pa.s.senger seat and said: “Aunt, don’t worry about it. You should go if the doctor told you to go back and check it. My leg is also injured so I need to go. It’s convenient because we are going to the same place.”
“But…….” Sun Yiyi’s mother was embarra.s.sed. Obviously the reason why she didn’t want to go to the hospital was not whether it was their common destination, but she was worried that if something was wrong, they wouldn’t be able to afford such high medical fees.
“Aunt, stop talking and rest. It’ll be a b.u.mpy ride, Yiyi, support your mother well.” s.h.i.+ Lei fastened his seatbelt, nodded towards Wei Xingyue and drove away. s.h.i.+ Lei told Wei Xingyue which hospital they were going to and he turned around to explain things to Sun Yiyi: “After I called you, I was in a hurry to catch a taxi, I wasn’t paying attention when I rushed onto the road and got hit. I was fine with it because it was my fault, but she just had to send me to the hospital. I couldn’t argue against her and I couldn’t get a taxi during this time, so we’ll trouble her by driving us there.”
Sun Yiyi immediately thanked her: “Thank you so much, I’m sorry about this.”
She then realised that this beauty wasn’t an online taxi driver. But it made sense; why would such a beauty work as an online taxi driver? Wei Xingyue smiled: “It’s fine. It doesn’t matter whose fault it was, it was me who hit Mr. s.h.i.+ Lei anyway. I want to send him to the hospital to check his injuries because it’s we’re responsible for each other. Otherwise, if something happens, it’s inconvenient and troublesome for both of us. Oh, I’m Wei Xingyue, what should I call you?”
Sun Yiyi wasn’t as extrovert as Wei Xingyue. She whispered: “I’m Sun Yiyi, ‘yi’ as in ‘Yikoulian’(1) and the ‘yi’ of the people’s radicle with ‘yin’(2).”
“Haha, this name’s quite interesting.” Wei Xingyue smiled and asked Sun Yiyi’s mother: “Aunt, is this speed ok? If it’s uncomfortable I’ll slow down.”
Sun Yiyi’s mother just understood the situation and quickly said: “No, no…… I’m fine.” She turned to s.h.i.+ Lei again: “s.h.i.+tou, how can you be so careless? If something happens to you because of me, I would be so worried!”
s.h.i.+ Lei laughed: “Don’t worry about me. I can run and jump around which means my bones are fine, I probably just pulled a muscle or something. I’m still young, I’ll be fine after I take a few days off.”
They drove in silence. After they reached the hospital, Sun Yiyi’s mother talked to s.h.i.+ Lei: “Don’t follow us, Yiyi can help me to the doctor. Hurry up and find a doctor to check you up, if something happens, it’ll be too late to regret.”
s.h.i.+ Lei could only watch Sun Yiyi and her mother walking towards the second floor cardiology department. He and Wei Xingyue went to the emergency department.
He took an x-ray and he received the results in merely a few seconds.
The doctor looked at it and smiled: “There shouldn’t be any problems. Your bones are fine, but your tissues are crushed. Put some ice on it after you go home. I’ll prescribe you some medicine for the bruise and just take care and don’t walk too much in the next few days.”
Wei Xingyue also paid for the medical fees as she said that it was her responsibility. In the end, s.h.i.+ Lei didn’t oppose her action of paying for the check up fees too. He had about 3,000 yuan left this week and he wouldn’t mind to pay for it if Wei Xingyue didn’t mention it.
The check up fees and the medicine were about 1,000 yuan together and s.h.i.+ Lei thought that it was rather cheap. Since Wei Xingyue offered to pay, s.h.i.+ Lei didn’t dare to pay anymore as the Scepter may say that he didn’t have to pay for it and if he forced himself to pay for it, it wouldn’t be counted within the sum.
Since everything was fine, Wei Xingyue didn’t have an excuse to stay. Before she left, she expressed her concern of possible future problems for s.h.i.+ Lei and firmly said that she will take full responsibility, so she forced s.h.i.+ Lei to give her his phone number and WeChat.
s.h.i.+ Lei felt weird. Was this breathtaking woman crazy? Why did she just have to have the phone number of a loser? Although she mentioned that it was for the sake of being responsible, but anyone else could see that s.h.i.+ Lei was perfectly fine. The only explanation left was that this beautiful woman called Wei Xingyue just wanted to get to know him.
s.h.i.+ Lei didn’t think that he was so handsome that girls wouldn’t be able to keep their legs together when they see him. Although he was indeed very good looking (this narcissist marmot), but he didn’t think that he was charismatic enough for Wei Xingyue to want to stick to him. Perhaps Wei Xingyue was just a strange person.
After Wei Xingyue left, s.h.i.+ Lei went to the second floor while Sun Yiyi’s mother was sent to do check ups. She opposed strongly before, but she finally agreed after the doctor said that everything was included in the surgery fees paid before.
Seeing that s.h.i.+ Lei was here, the doctor knew that s.h.i.+ Lei was willing to spend money, he said: “The situation isn’t as bad as what I imagined. Although they are still doing the check ups, but from my experience, there are two possible results and you should be prepared for them. The first one, of course, is that everything is fine. I’ll give her some medicine and as long as she stays in bed, she’ll be fine. There is a high possibility that her reactions are from concerns, perhaps because she was worrying about her situation and this is very common on older patients. They always worry that they don’t have long to live, but if she can keep herself happy, then there shouldn’t be a problem.”
s.h.i.+ Lei nodded and asked: “What’s the other possible result?”
