Chapter 3: I Have to Stay Chaste

Zhu Miaomiao only took two steps forward, then stopped immediately.

No way.

This man is very dangerous.

And she just met him.

There’s no reason for him to help her.

Or, she has to think of other ways.

But now there’s a very awkward thing.

She’s sleeping in this lounge tonight.

So –

What about this Mr. Duan?

Should he, express some gentlemanly behavior, and leave?

Zhu Miaomiao hesitated for a while, finally mustered up the courage to go back to him and ask, “Am I sleeping here tonight?”

Duan Siyu casually curled his thin lips, his speech was not formal, “Otherwise? You want to sleep at my house?”

As he spoke, he chuckled, his eyes deep, a hint of frivolous playfulness flashed, “Not good, we just met, I have to stay chaste.”

Zhu Miaomiao was furious.

Before she could speak.

The man had already stood up, “Get some rest, someone will come to pick you up tomorrow.”

After saying that, he left the room.

Zhu Miaomiao’s anger, which had just ignited, was extinguished at once.

——

The next day, Zhu Miaomiao took Duan Siyu’s private plane and landed at the airport in the suburbs of Beijing.

This suburb is a new development, it is not yet fully developed, it is far from buses and subways, let alone taxis.

It’s too hard to walk back to the city center.

But –

There is a car that will pick up Duan Siyu.

Just as Zhu Miaomiao was thinking about whether she could hitch a ride, the man took the initiative to speak to her, “It’s not easy to get a taxi here, do you need me to give you a ride?”

Zhu Miaomiao was stunned, she was very grateful, “Th…thank you.”

Perhaps she had thought too much about people.

This Mr. Duan is actually quite good.

He saved her from the fire yesterday, and today he took the initiative to send her back to Beijing, and even let her hitch a ride.

It’s just that he’s a little bit unrestrained in his speech.

Overall, he didn’t hurt her.

The driver was driving in front.

She and Duan Siyu were sitting in the back seat.

The space was not small, but it made people feel thin and oppressive.

Zhu Miaomiao cautiously glanced at the man beside her.

His jawline was sharp and cold, his eyebrows and eyes were thick and cold, his black hair fell on his forehead, lazy and enchanting.

This face is “beautiful”, “妖” (yao, a word that implies a seductive and alluring quality), but also very aggressive and oppressive.

Duan Siyu noticed her gaze and looked at her.

Zhu Miaomiao: “…” This feeling of being caught is simply nerve-wracking.

“Where are you going?” he asked.

Zhu Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief, blinked her eyes, and replied softly, “The First People’s Hospital in Beijing.”

Duan Siyu told the driver to take them to the hospital.

About an hour later, the car stopped at the hospital entrance.

The winter temperature in Beijing was obviously colder than in Australia.

As soon as they got out of the car, a cold wind blew through.

Zhu Miaomiao turned her head to look at Duan Siyu in the car, and thanked him again before leaving.

Duan Siyu’s cold, sharp eyes fell on her, his tone unhurried, “Are you a thank-you machine? How many times have you thanked me since last night? I haven’t seen you express anything.”

“…”

Zhu Miaomiao withdrew the smile from her lips, let him say whatever he wanted, anyway, they wouldn’t see each other again.

She ignored the man and turned to leave.

Duan Siyu’s eyes closed slightly, looking a little tired.

The driver in front respectfully asked him, “Boss, where are we going next?”

Duan Siyu tapped his fingertips on the armrest, casually spitting out two words, “Huo family.”

——

“What are you doing?!”

The doctors and nurses pushed out all of Zhu Miaomiao’s grandmother, Liu Chunjiao’s belongings, including the bed, from the ward.

The bed was placed in the corridor, Liu Chunjiao, who was thin and bony and had white hair, slowly sat up, her eyes rolling around, obviously she was stimulated, she looked panicked and scared.

Zhu Miaomiao grabbed the wrist of a young nurse, her strength was surprisingly strong, she continued to question, “Why did you push my grandmother out of the ward?”

The nurse shook off Zhu Miaomiao, and said righteously, “Do you think the First People’s Hospital is just any place? Do you know how many patients need to be hospitalized every day? The ordinary ward is already crowded, your family can’t afford the surgery fee, let alone the medical expenses, you often owe money, why do you still want to stay here? Others need to be treated too!”

The medical care in this hospital is top-notch in the country, thousands of patients come here for treatment every day, it took a lot of effort for Zhu Miaomiao to get her grandmother admitted to the ward.

Being kicked out now is actually expected.

But why is it today?

Zhu Miaomiao quickly noticed something was wrong, she comforted her grandmother, who was frightened, and immediately went to find her grandmother’s attending physician.

The attending physician did not hide it, saying that a lady came this morning, claiming to be Liu Chunjiao’s biological daughter, and signed a consent form to give up treatment.

After verification, the other party is indeed Liu Chunjiao’s direct relative.

So the hospital couldn’t do anything about it.

After hearing this, Zhu Miaomiao was struck by lightning.

It’s her mother!

Her mother, in order to prevent her and her grandmother from dragging her down, actually went to such lengths.

“I won’t give up treatment!” Zhu Miaomiao said to the attending physician, “That woman doesn’t count! She has nothing to do with my grandmother!”

The attending physician sighed helplessly, he sympathized with the little girl’s situation, but… that woman is after all Liu Chunjiao’s direct relative, they are also following the rules and regulations.

“Don’t make things difficult for us, why don’t you go and talk to your mother again? See how to handle it?”

——

Originally, Zhu Miaomiao was going to think of other ways, she didn’t expect anything from that cold-blooded mother, but now, she changed her mind!

She and her grandmother had a hard life all these years, but the rope always breaks at the weakest point, and her grandmother got this disease…

Her mother ignored her, let alone, she wanted to kill her grandmother.

Okay, fine, who is she, Zhu Miaomiao? What kind of storms hasn’t she experienced over the years? She’s not a good person either, she might as well die together!

Zhu Miaomiao settled her grandmother in the corridor, and found a few familiar patients’ families to help take care of her for a while, before she felt relieved and went to the Huo family again.

She took a taxi to the Huo family.

Looking at the row of villas in front of her, they were decorated with colorful lights and lanterns, as if they were celebrating the New Year today.

Zhu Miaomiao was about to go in, but she was stopped by two guards.

“Miss, who are you, why are you barging in…”

The two guards pushed her out.

Zhu Miaomiao’s face was flushed with anger, she shouted her mother’s name, “I want to find Fu Lan, you make her come out!”

The commotion at the entrance of the villa was too loud, naturally it attracted people.

It was Huo Yuan.

She was wearing a red coat with small leather shoes, she slowly walked to the entrance, saw Zhu Miaomiao, and her delicate makeup flashed with disgust.

Thinking of how Brother Siyu helped her out last night, she was unhappy.

Now Brother Siyu is at the Huo family, she must not let these two meet again!

“Zhu Miaomiao, I think you’re crazy, you dare to bark at me!”

As she spoke, Huo Yuan looked at the two guards.

“What are you standing there for? Quickly drag her out and beat her to death.”
