Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: Nagging Persistently?

A small wheel of the sun has already leaped out from the horizon, brightening the dim sky considerably. Due to last night's heavy rain, today's sky seems to have unfurled into an endless expanse of blue silk.

Ji Niandong finally looked at the watch on her left wrist; it was already past seven in the morning, and she had actually slept at a stranger's house.

Maybe I'm just too tired recently!

Ji Niandong laughed self-deprecatingly, took off the red leather strap watch from her wrist, and without hesitation, threw it into a nearby trash can.

The person I grew up with, the fiancé who had been with me for five years, turned into someone I don't recognize overnight.

He once gave me a watch, saying it was to let time witness our love!

Now, in his eyes, she was merely a senseless, clingy woman.

Ji Niandong only felt a chilly wind blowing in, exceptionally cold!

The black Bentley timely stopped in front of her. Li Yi got out of the car, opened the door, and bowed slightly in a gesture of invitation, "Miss Ji, the Boss asked me to take you home. Please get in the car!"

The man in front wore a black professional suit, which was visibly the attire of a secretary.

He had been waiting outside the door of that stranger's house the whole time, always with a polite and comfortable smile, and now he was also courteous.

Ji Niandong asked warily, "How do you know my last name is Ji?"

"I've happened to watch the TV series Miss Ji acted in." Seeing Ji Niandong had no reaction, he paused, "Hello, I'm Li Yi, here is my business card, you can contact me anytime whenever you have anything."

He answered carefully and politely, then took a business card out of his pocket and handed it to Ji Niandong with both hands, lifting his gaze to scrutinize her intentionally or unintentionally.

Her palm-sized small face was fair and clear, with almost no blemishes except for a small mole at the corner of her mouth. Although her big, bright phoenix eyes looked full of spirit, various beauties have appeared next to the Boss.

Is it because of her slender, graspable waist and those heaven-defying long legs?

Li Yi shook his head. The Boss is not someone who speaks carelessly, so this woman in front of him must be the future wife of the Boss to be treated well!

"Thank you!" Ji Niandong noticed his subtle scrutiny, didn't take the business card, and went directly to sit in the back seat. Considering their demeanor, they wouldn't cheat a broke person like her.

Only, such an outdated female artist like her, there are still people who have watched her play third-rate roles?

Or, better to avoid it!

Li Yi smiled and naturally retracted the business card, then got in the car and asked, "Where would Miss Ji like to go?"

"To New City Hospital, please!"

The hospital was already full of people coming to see the doctor early in the morning. They worry about not getting a number; there has never been a hospital concerned about not having people to bring in money.

As soon as Ji Niandong entered the ward, she saw the assistant physician guarding there, his eager face showing a bit of disdain when he saw her come in, "Miss Ji, you didn't come last night. You should have raised the money, right? You can't even pay for the basic hospitalization and care fees on time now. This surgery... still going to do it?"

"Of course, the surgery must be done. Doctor, don't worry, I will raise the money soon!" Ji Niandong glanced at the bed; her father was still on an IV drip, in a half-conscious state, "Besides, haven't I already paid for the hospitalization fees for these days?"

The assistant physician snorted disdainfully, "Yes, you've paid for the hospitalization, but what about the care fee and medication costs? Your father's condition hasn't been stable these days, and our medication has been constantly adjusted. These all require money."
