Chapter 1429: Turning Dangerous

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Nie Zhengyang looked embarra.s.sed. When he thought of what happened yesterday, he felt ashamed, and even his aura diminished.

“Don’t flatter yourself. Even without you, 1 could still walk out.”

“Hehe… You’re awesome, you’re awesome.”

Hearing Lin Yi’s words, Nie Zhengyang was even more furious, but because of his status, he couldn’t flare up.

“Zhengyang, stop arguing.” Liu Guiqin said.

“Can you go in and ask about the situation?”

“Auntie, don’t worry. I’m here to deal with this.”

When facing Liu Guiqin, Nie Zhengyang was very polite, as if he was family.

“Hurry up and take a look. Otherwise, my heart will remain in my throat.”

“I’ll go now.”

Nie Zhengyang turned around and left. Before he left, he didn’t forget to look down on Lin Yi.

Liu Guiqin also stole a glance at Lin Yi with a complicated expression before calling An Ning to the side.

“Daughter, what’s going on? Isn’t this young man called Lin Yi your client? He doesn’t know Zhengyang, right?”

“Something unpleasant happened between them, but it’s all settled. Don’t worry about it.”

Liu Guiqin scrutinized An Ning from head to toe and said,

“You didn’t come home last night, and you came here together this morning. Don’t tell me the two of you…”

“Mother, what are you thinking about?” An Ning rolled her eyes at her mother. “My period is here, what can I do?”

Hearing this, Liu Guiqin was much more relieved.

“But 1 think there’s something wrong with the two of you. Let me tell you, don’t cause trouble.” Liu Guiqin warned.

“If something really happens, I’d like to see how you clean up the mess!”

Upon hearing her mother’s words, An Ning thought of the embarra.s.sing incident last night and her pretty face burned.

“What are you thinking? Is your daughter that kind of person?”

“Regardless, I’ve already warned you. You’re not young anymore. Be careful.”

“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”

“An Guohua’s family.”

Just as the mother and daughter were talking, the nurse from the 1CU walked out and said.

“Here and here.”

Liu Guiqin and An Ning hurried over. “What’s wrong, nurse?”

“The medical fees are not enough. You will have to pay an additional 50,000 yuan.”

“We paid 30,000 when we came. Has it already been used up so quickly?”

The nurse nodded. “The patient’s condition hasn’t stabilized yet. There’s less than ten thousand yuan left in the account. We need to make up for it now, but

1 suggest you prepare more. If we need it, you can deposit it at any time.”

The nurse spoke quickly. After saying that, she turned around and returned to the ICU ward.

Liu Guiqin’s body went limp. If not for An Ning’s support, she would have fallen to the ground.

The An family was quite well-off. They had two houses in Bingcheng, and also had a retirement home. Although they did not have much cash on hand, it was not a problem for them to come up with a few hundred thousand.

However, the nurse said that the situation was not stable yet. This made her heart jump again.

“Mother, don’t just believe everything you hear.” An Ning said,

“That’s the price for the ICU. Take a break on the chair for now. I’ll go pay first.”

“Go on, go on.” Liu Guiqin waved her hand. She had lost all her energy.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yi felt uncomfortable.

After all, this matter had a lot to do with him.

“I don’t want you to stay. I’ll go and pay for you.”

“No need, let’s go together,” An Ning said as she combed her hair. “My mother has worked hard her whole life. She’s not that fragile.”

After settling Liu Guiqin down, the two of them entered the elevator together.

Whoosh!

The moment she closed the door, An Ning leaned against the side of the elevator and took a deep breath. The acc.u.mulated emotions in her heart were too heavy.

She needed to find a private place to release her stress.

“Don’t panic. At least there’s no problem now,” Lin Yu said.

“Let’s see what the doctors have to say when they come out.”

At this point, the doctor’s request for payment indicates that there is still a need for further medical intervention. Otherwise, they would have just suggested reserving a spot at the crematorium for the patient.

In Lin Yi’s opinion, the current situation was still controllable. There were no major issues and they didn’t need his help.

After all, the standards of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Bingcheng Medical University were not bad.

“Those people are too despicable!” An Ning said angrily.

“If only 1 could throw a few lightning bolts and kill them.”

Lin Yi looked at An Ning with a smile. This was the typical personality of a northeastern girl.

It was rare to hear such words from Ji Qingyan, Li Chuhan, or w.a.n.g Ying.

However, he had heard similar things from Liang Ruoxu.

“Let’s take it one step at a time. I’ll settle the matter at hand first and deal with the rest slowly.”

“Yeah.”

With Lin Yi by her side, An Ning’s emotions did not fluctuate much.

This seemed to be a common human trait. When people are not feeling well, they often wished for someone to be there with them, even if they don’t speak, just having someone quietly standing by their side could provide comfort.

The elevator stopped slowly descended to the first floor.

The two of them arrived at the payment counter, paid 50,000 yuan, and took the elevator back.

When they returned this time, they realized that there was a middle-aged couple beside Liu Guiqin.

Their names were An Guoyong and Liu Fang. They were An Ning’s second uncle and second aunt. Liu Guiqin was wiping her tears as the two of them spoke to her.

“Second Uncle, Second Aunt.”

Seeing the two of them, An Ning went over to greet them.

An Guoyong and Liu Fang nodded as a greeting. At the same time, they saw Lin Yi, but they didn’t ask about his ident.i.ty.

“Do you have enough money? Take my card.” An Guoyong handed over a Construction Bank card.

“There’s no need, Second Uncle. 1 have enough money.”

“Take it regardless. The ICU is a place that costs a lot of money a night. 1’11 leave it with you for now.”

An Guoyong forced the card into An Ning’s hands.

“Mother, why are you crying? He might come out fine soon,” An Ning said.

“You look like you’re about to die.”

“Just now, Zhengyang came. I saw that something was wrong with his expression. He even said that he would go and look for their deputy director. Why do I feel that something bad has happened?”

“He’s bringing the deputy director here?”

An Ning panicked. If the doctor inside could handle it, he wouldn’t have to look for the director.

Lin Yi’s expression was not very good either. This situation was indeed not good.

“Zhengyang said that just now.” Liu Guiqin wiped her tears and said,

“He said that he had a good personal relationship with the deputy director, so he begged him to come over and take a look. 1 wonder what happened inside. I’m so anxious.”

“Should we call and ask?” An Guoyong asked.

“He can’t answer his phone while he’s inside,” An Ning said.

“Quick, quick, quick. Zhengyang is here. Hurry up and ask what’s going on.”

With that, Liu Guiqin hurriedly walked towards Nie Zhengyang.

“Zhengyang, how’s the situation inside? Is it serious?”

Nie Zhengyang’s expression was solemn.

“Not too optimistic. I’m going to go look for the directors of other departments. There are some situations that 1 have to consult with them..”
