Chapter 5
Just as Lan Yun was about to speak, the light in the emergency room turned green, and the doctor came out. Lan Yun, who was calm just now, immediately rushed up and pushed Yu Fei away. She pulled the doctor and asked, “Doctor, how’s my husband?”
“Fortunately, he was sent here in time,” the doctor took off his mask and said, “he’s safe now.”
Hearing this, a trace of disappointment flashed through Lan Yun’s eyes, but she immediately recovered and said with a smile, “That’s great. It was a false alarm. Thank you, Doctor.”
“Although the patient’s life is no longer in danger, his body is still very weak. He still needs to rest in the hospital for a few days. You guys should go and pay the hospital fees.”
Renhe Hospital was the best hospital in Ocean City, and it also had the most patients. The doctors here were highly skilled and well-known for their medical ethics.
In this noisy environment, Yu Fei was unusually quiet. She stood by the bed with her head down. One side of her hair was scattered on her shoulder, revealing only half of her face. However, it was this half of her face that was still quiet, pure, and beautiful. Even under the dim light of the hospital corridor, her skin was still white and glowing, easily attracting the attention of people around her.
Lan Yun looked at her foxy face and felt hatred in her heart. This little sl*t was just like her mother, using her face to seduce men everywhere! She had to get this little b*tch married as soon as possible, so as not to affect her daughter’s marriage.
“Yu Fei!” After thinking it through, Lan Yun said, “Your father dotes on you the most. Shouldn’t you be filial at this time?”
Yu Fei raised her head, looking at Lan Yun with confusion.
Lan Yun continued, “Didn’t you ask me why your father committed suicide? I’m telling you, it’s because there’s a problem with the company and he owes millions of dollars in debt. The debt collectors come every day to ask for money, and your dad couldn’t bear the pressure, so he took drugs and attempted to commit suicide.”
The company was in trouble and he was in debt of millions?
“When did this happen?” Yu Fei asked in surprise, “How come I’ve never heard of it before?”
“He’s afraid you’ll be worried, so he told us to keep it from you,” Lan Yun sneered and said.
After knowing the truth about her father’s suicide, Yu Fei’s heart tightened and she felt sad. Her father had loved her since she was a child. Although she had once resented her father for marrying a vicious woman like Lan Yun, she still cared about her father a lot.
“Now you know the situation at home. I’ve borrowed money everywhere and taken out all the dowry I prepared for Yuanyuan, but I’m still short of a lot. If you can’t gather the money tomorrow, you know what the loan sharks are like. They’ll do anything to get their money back.”
Yu Fei did not want to listen to such nonsense, so she asked directly, “Auntie Lan, just tell me, how can I help?”
She did earn some money from filming, but she was still a newcomer and her pay was about the same as an office worker. Even if she wanted to help her father pay back the money, she did not have the ability to do so. Lan Yun was also clear about this. Yu Yuanyuan was in the same school as her and had acted in a few movies before, and the pay was about the same.
Lan Yun pretended to be in a difficult position and said, “Sigh… I have no other choice. Do you remember Boss Wang who had a meal with us before? Boss Wang knew our difficulties and offered to help us. If he can help, then your father’s company can be saved.”
Was there such a good thing in this world?
“He’s not going to offer help for free, is he?” Yu Fei asked coldly.
She had seen that old man before. He looked very shrewd, and it was impossible for him to help them for nothing.
“Boss Wang told me in private that he likes you very much and wants to marry you and enjoy life with him,” said Lan Yun with a smile. “As long as you agree, let alone five million, he would even be willing to pay ten million!”
After hearing this, how could Yu Fei not understand?
“Auntie Lan, you want me to sell my body?” She knew that Lan Yun would not have good intentions.
“How can you call it selling your body?” In order to hide her guilty conscience, Lan Yun raised her voice and said, “Didn’t I do it for our family? Do you want to see your father being kidnapped by the loan sharks and having his hands and feet chopped off? Besides, Boss Wang is so rich. If you follow him, you won’t have to worry about money anymore. You can just enjoy life. Other people don’t even have the chance to think about such a good thing!”
By selling her body, she would become wealthy! Wasn’t this a blessing that others could only dream about?
Yu Fei’s stomach kept rolling. She could not help but sneer. “Since there’s such a good thing, I think it’s better to let Yuanyuan go instead. I’m not blessed, and I can’t bear such a great blessing.”
Lan Yun smiled and said, “Yuanyuan doesn’t have such good fortune. The one Boss Wang likes is you! Little Fei, other than being slightly older than you, Boss Wang doesn’t have any other shortcomings. Once you marry over, you’ll be the wife of a rich family. You wouldn’t need to run out to film and work hard just to earn that little bit of money, right? What do you think?”
