C166 (2/2)
I quietly pushed the door open. She was sleeping on the bed, and she didn't look very well.
”Jade Immortal.” I whispered.
She opened her eyes and saw that it was me. She forced out a smile and said, ”Wen Zi, you're back.”
My heart is aching. How did the Wang Yuxian become like this after I left for just a few days?
I went in and closed the door behind me and sat on the edge of her bed and touched her forehead.
It was boiling hot.
”So hot! I'll send you to the medicine hall! ” ”No,” I said.
”No need, I'll be fine after a short rest.” she said weakly.
Looking at her stubbornness, I fell silent.
I took out my cigarette and lit it, but put it down after a moment's thought.
”Because of Lao Gao, right?” I asked.
The Wang Yuxian didn't say anything, but held my hands tightly: ”Wen Zi, if only he was half as good as you. If only he could stay safely in the restaurant, how great would it be …”
”He hasn't come back in two days?”
”None …”
”Jade Immortal, this sort of person is truly not worthy of your effort.”
He really didn't know which life's worth of fortune Lao Gao had cultivated to be able to find the Wang Yuxian, but why would fate change when she came to the Wang Yuxian?
Wang Yuxian coughed lightly: ”Big Sis knows what to do, you don't need to worry about me.”
I hastily poured her a cup of water. ”Alright, I won't say anymore.”
”Oh right, Wen Zi, how did you go about doing that?”
I lowered my head. ”I'm doing it right now. Don't worry, no problem.”
”Mm …”
Her face was a little ugly from being sick, but her face was still incredibly beautiful. I resisted the urge to lower my head and kiss her, so I covered her with the blanket and went down.
”Acting Hu, have Hei Mei come over recently. Let her stay here and take care of Wang Yuxian.” ”No,” I said.
Acting Hu's eyes lit up: ”Ok! No problem! ”
My eyes widened, ”Wang Yuxian is sick now, don't bullshit with her!”
Acting Hu obviously knows what I'm talking about and chuckled.
”I know, I know …”
”If you want to talk nonsense, go to the first floor.”
”Mm …”
Hei Mei came over at noon. After coming over, she started busying herself in the restaurant like an old acquaintance.
At that moment, my phone rang.
I looked down and saw an unfamiliar number, so I picked it up.
”Hey, Zhang Wen, how is the preparation for the money?” It was the voice of a man with a crew cut.
”Didn't you say seven days later? Seven days later, I'll definitely make you satisfied.” ”No,” I said.
”Haha, then alright, I don't have any other intentions, I'm just giving you a reminder!”
”Don't overdo it!”
”Haha, that's fine. That's fine.”
I still did not have a clue what to do with the money. I definitely could not ask for the money from the pillar, because I would definitely not be able to pay it back within a short period of time, so I could only find a way to find the Boss Wang.
I didn't want to go to him unless I had to.
But what could he do now?
There are only two days left until the appointment with the little flat head. After hesitating for a long time, I finally made a call to Boss Wang.
