1333 I Only Want You 31 (1/2)

Bu Xianxian relayed the message to Jin Bao'er, after which No. 5 sought the permission of Jin Qingyue, who vehemently objected to it once again. However, Jin Bao'er began to get anxious and worried about her father.

She was on the verge of tears.

She had no choice but to beg No. 5 to bring her to the hospital, and she promised not to wander off on her own.

She even tried to convince No. 5 that everything would be fine since she would be under his surveillance and that it would just be a quick visit.

No. 5 was initially insistent on sticking to his own principles. However, Jin Bao'er was crying continuously in agony. Seeing how miserable she was, No. 5 softened his heart and conceded after taking into consideration that she had been rather obedient lately. Hence, he made her promise him that she would take no longer than ten minutes.

Thus, No. 5, Jin Bao'er, and Bu Xianxian headed to the hospital together. Shi Shaochuan was lying on the hospital bed, and he felt extremely heartened to see that Jin Bao'er had really shown up.

”Daddy, what's wrong with you?”

”Daddy's… sick. It's a little serious. Bao'er, don't you want to have a meal with me?” said Shi Shaochuan, who felt as if he was not in control of his speech.

Jin Bao'er nodded and explained, ”I do, but I've already promised Uncle No. 5 to stay here for no longer than ten minutes.”

Shi Shaochuan looked at No. 5 and asked, ”Can't you let Bao'er stay for a meal with me before bringing her back?”

No. 5 said in refusal, ”No. Ms. Jin didn't allow it at first but I only decided to bring Bao'er here to see you because of how upset she was. She kept crying and weeping. Please don't make any further requests.”

Despite feeling rather disgruntled, Shi Shaochuan had no choice but to concede.

Jin Bao'er stayed for ten minutes before leaving with No. 5.

Bu Xianxian did not exit the ward and instead sent a text message.

She then said, ”You may not have gotten to eat with her, but at least you know that Bao'er still cares about you. Your efforts didn't go in vain.”

Shi Shaochuan expressed assent and said, ”I keep feeling really weak and heavy. I'd like to catch some sleep.”

”There's another bed here. Just lie down and take a nap. We'll go back after you wake up.”

Shi Shaochuan remained silent and closed his eyes while lying down. He dozed off shortly after and fell into a deep sleep.

Bu Xianxian sat down and continued using her mobile phone.

Half an hour later, she received a notification from the bank, which told her that a payment of 700 thousand dollars had been transferred to her account.

She smiled gleefully and stood up immediately to leave.

She left Shi Shaochuan alone in the ward.

She could have made the ghost child kill Shi Shaochuan. However, she did not do so because she knew that An Xiaoning was a psychic medium and would definitely find out that she was the culprit behind the act. By then, not only will all of Shi Shaochuan's assets go to Jin Bao'er, she would also be held responsible for his death too.

Hence, she decided to stop when it was time to do so, for she did not want to be liable for anything. To her knowledge, she did not break the law.

Besides, she had never loved Shi Shaochuan or wanted to marry him. Hence, leaving now would be the best option.

After adding the 300 thousand dollars that she had received upfront, she thought one million dollars was enough to last her for a long while, provided she doesn't squander the money away.
