CHAPTER 49: CHAPTER 48: ROGUE AH A, ELEGANT CLOUD SLEEVES (REQUEST FOR FIRST SUBSCRIPTION)

----------

Sui Yi transferred the money to her account at the bank and saw Ah A as she stepped out.

He leaned against a stone lion, one foot propped against the stone surface, casually leaning, with a cigarette hanging from his lips, blowing smoke rings.

In the eyes of middle-aged people, he was nothing but a street thug.

To young girls, he was a decadently handsome guy.

"Is there something with Elder Lin?"

Beyond that, she couldn’t think of any reason he would follow her.

"Am I not allowed to look for you?" Ah A tilted his head as he scrutinized her.

Sui Yi glanced at him and walked straight ahead, Ah A laughed a little and followed.

"Treat me to a meal?"

"Reason?"

"I helped you..."

"I recall paying you..."

As Sui Yi waited for the traffic light, she glimpsed the advertising screen on the big summer display.

It was broadcasting news instead.

"One thousand yuan is not enough," Ah A stood by her side; his words had a hint of ruffian air.

Sui Yi turned to look at him, but saw a seriousness on his face, and for a moment, she thought he was after the one million she had.

However, she quickly dismissed the thought.

"Are you thinking I’m after your one million?" Ah A exhaled a puff of smoke.

"Someone reliable to Elder Lin wouldn’t be such a thug."

"Thug?" Ah A laughed, his gaze casually sweeping over Sui Yi’s face as he said indifferently, "Actually, I am just a thug."

------------

Sui Yi couldn’t stop Ah A from following her, nor did she want to waste the energy to shake him off. After arriving at the hospital, he became very quiet, as if he wasn’t there at all.

After registering and paying.

The pharmacy room.

"It’s you? So, you have money this time?" The female physician twirled a yellowed prescription and glanced at Sui Yi with a hint of scorn.

These words were quite rude! It seemed she also recognized Sui Yi!

Ah A frowned, about to scold her, but he heard Sui Yi nonchalantly say, "Did I not pay when I bought medicine last time? Do you need to remind me?"

Her tone was cool and firm.

The female physician’s face flushed with thin anger, she glared fiercely at her, then sneered, "Can’t afford to be hospitalized, eating medicine is useless —— you’ll end up the same way..."

Her words were truly impolite.

Ah A’s face darkened, but he saw Sui Yi gently shake her head at him.

What? Just endure it like that?

Ah A gave the female physician a deep look, retracted the ruthlessness in his eyes, and scoffed.

The female physician finally noticed that Sui Yi was not alone; there was a rather formidable young man next to her. She toned down her attitude, glanced at Sui Yi again, and sneered, "Really a social riff-raff..."

According to the prescription, a big bag of medicine—edibles, drinkables, and topical applications, everything was there, including Western and Chinese medicines. He looked at these medicines, the cigarette between his fingers forgotten for a long while, until a nurse, blushing, came to tell him not to smoke, bringing him back to reality.

He hadn’t noticed when Sui Yi had gone to pay earlier, but thinking about it now, these medicines were definitely not cheap.

She handled it as if she was buying vegetables, not even furrowing her brow when she swiped her card.

Ah A volunteered to carry the bag, asking, "Are you sick?"

His words came out bluntly, causing those behind them to burst into laughter.

Sui Yi turned to look at him, "Do you want to register as well?"

Well, that wasn’t something he could just add on.

Ah A chuckled lightly, about to speak...

"We’re still missing some medicines," Sui Yi suddenly said to the female physician.

"What?" the female physician’s face fell, her voice sharp, she exclaimed, "I clearly issued them to you, what’s missing!"

Sui Yi remained expressionless, simply pointing at the list, saying, "Take a closer look."

The form listed five, but she had only provided one.

"Look at what? I’ve dispensed this medicine so many times, how could I have missed! You’re just trying to pick a fault!"

It should be said that this female physician had had some issues with Sui Yi for quite some time. Initially, it was trivial; inexplicably finding Sui Yi displeasing, she arbitrarily made things difficult. Unlike Sui Yi, who was extremely vicious, her cold violence was terrifying, directly causing her internal injuries.

Haven’t seen her in a long while, she thought perhaps the girl had been crushed by the hardships of life, now suffering somewhere. Yet today, seeing her again, great, she’s even more beautiful than before—her skin, her face, her figure...

It was unbearable, and the urge to cause trouble only grew stronger. Previously, her provocations often ended with her own frustration, the resentment brewing into a dense fury, ready to explode at any moment!

She was fearless!

Because the circumstances had changed; she was no longer an intern, now...

Haha...

Last night, the director was sleeping at her place...

The queued people were startled at the comparison, and ordinary people naturally dared not offend the hospital staff, thus they began accusing Sui Yi.

A few spoke up for justice, but were soon overwhelmed by the crowd...

"What’s the commotion!" Suddenly, a stern voice rang out!

The crowd turned their heads and saw a man in a white coat looking stern, visibly upset, followed by a group of similarly dressed individuals, seemingly crowding around another man.

When Sui Yi looked over, she was momentarily stunned.

"I’m sorry, Doctor Jiang, this is embarrassing... perhaps we should go somewhere else..."

A middle-aged man, full of apologies, spoke softly to a strikingly handsome man standing out from the rest. He was the hospital’s dean. Who could make him bow so low?

The handsome man simply looked surprised towards the window and then directly said to the dean, "Sorry, I just saw a friend of mine..."

Having said that, he started walking, a smile forming on his face.

What kind of person was Jiang Yunxiu?

He was of the same calibre as Yi Chilian, someone who transcended ordinary distinction. Despite being just over twenty, he epitomized youthful achievement, his presence inciting astonishment.

Especially among women, who were particularly starstruck.

What was even more astonishing was that he walked straight up to Sui Yi and smiled fondly, "Sui Yi, I truly didn’t expect to see you here."

"I didn’t expect it either," Sui Yi glanced at the deans and directors of Nanxun Hospital behind him...

"Are you here on official business?" She knew this guy was from out of town, and pondered that this little hospital couldn’t possibly accommodate such a big Buddha; otherwise, those deans wouldn’t be so eager to please him.

"Yes... here to inspect... By the way, what about you?"

Jiang Yunxiu said, glancing at Ah A standing next to Sui Yi holding medicines.

Ah A met his gaze, furrowing his brows, his expression becoming somewhat solemn.

"Are you sick?" Jiang Yun also threw in a question.

Sui Yi’s brow twitched.

Is this what young people these days greet each other with?

At that time, the dean was extremely sharp-eyed, immediately noticing how familiar Sui Yi was with Jiang Yunxiu, coldly glancing at the female physician.

The female physician’s face turned pale instantly.

----------

A moment later, in a corner, Jiang Yunxiu had picked up the yellowed gallbladder, frowning as he examined it. After a long moment, he said, "Is your grandmother’s condition motor neuron weakness, weakness in her hands, occasionally unable to hold things, frequent severe headaches, and leg joint twitching as if pierced by needles..."

"Yes," Sui Yi nodded, pointing at the medications list, "It’s said to be Delores Syndrome, the bone marrow is starting to age, these medicines are necessary to slow it... but... there’s no cure."

No cure meant an endless cycle of medication and pain.

After finishing speaking, Sui Yi fell silent.

Jiang Yunxiu looked at her for a while, then said, "Could I see your grandmother?"(To be continued. If you like this work, please come to qidian.com to vote for it, and you can support me by giving a monthly pass. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
