Chapter 12: Are You Scared?

What concubine?

What man…

Zhu Miaomiao was about to suffocate.

Just as she was about to fight back.

The woman was pulled away forcefully, and she was finally rescued.

Duan Siyu’s face was gloomy, his eyes stared at Chen coldly, “Why did you let her out?”

Chen immediately knelt down, she trembled with fear, “Young Master, I didn’t mean to, you know, your mother, when she has an attack, no one can stop her, everyone is afraid of hurting her, so they can only let her run around, I don’t know how she got here…”

Zhu Miaomiao was stunned.

So this beautiful crazy woman is Duan Siyu’s mother?

The family doctor rushed over, he quickly gave Duan Siyu’s mother a sedative.

The woman who had been crazy just now slowly calmed down, then fell asleep.

“Boss, your mother’s attacks are getting more and more frequent, unless you imprison her, otherwise, sometimes it’s normal that you can’t watch her, I hope you can calm down.”

The family doctor was a young man, he was very handsome, and he spoke softly.

Duan Siyu glanced at him, “Ye Nanjin, am I paying you to eat for free? If she doesn’t get better, you don’t have to live either.”

Ye Nanjin didn’t dare to say anything, he could only nod, “Yes… I’ll try my best.”

Duan Siyu’s mother was taken away.

Soon, only Duan Siyu and Zhu Miaomiao were left in the second-floor corridor.

Zhu Miaomiao rubbed her neck, she felt her throat was a little dry.

When she met Duan Siyu’s black eyes, she was immediately terrified.

She wouldn’t have stumbled upon this man’s secret and been killed to silence her, would she?

Zhu Miaomiao immediately covered her eyes and swore her loyalty, “I actually didn’t see anything.”

Duan Siyu chuckled, “It doesn’t matter if you saw anything.”

He pulled Zhu Miaomiao in front of him, he lowered his eyelids and looked at her quietly.

Her white neck was a little red, it was from being choked by his mother.

Duan Siyu’s cold fingertips brushed against her skin, he was noble and calm, “Does it hurt?”

This question, coming from his mouth, was eerie.

It made Zhu Miaomiao feel the coldness of a snowy day.

Duan Siyu smiled casually, as if he was talking about something very ordinary, “My mother is crazy, I also carry her genes, maybe one day, if I’m not happy, I’ll go crazy and kill you -“

“Are you scared? Do you still want to make a deal with me?”

Zhu Miaomiao: “…”

She was scared, but what could she do? Did she have any other options? After all, sometimes, poverty is scarier than death.

“Not scared.” Zhu Miaomiao tilted her head, giving a sweet smile, “Duan Siyu, it’s not your fault.”

Hearing this, Duan Siyu’s body trembled, he looked away.

——

Zhu Miaomiao left Junwu Garden, her whole body was trembling, her strength seemed to be drained, her legs were weak.

On the way home, she sat in the taxi, looking at the bustling city outside the window, she was lost in thought.

Just then, the hospital called, saying that someone had paid a large sum of money for her grandmother’s medical expenses and subsequent surgery fees.

Even the ward was transferred to a VIP ward.

The VIP ward, the medicines and treatment equipment used were the best. There were also medical staff to take care of her one-on-one, there was no need for family members to worry.

Although the VIP ward was expensive, it was always full…

Unexpectedly, less than an hour after she made a deal with Duan Siyu…

Her grandmother could be admitted to a ward that others would kill to get into.

What irony.

The wind outside the window blew against Zhu Miaomiao’s face, she felt her eyes were sore.

She returned to the hospital.

She went to the VIP ward.

Liu Chunjiao’s condition had stabilized a lot.

When she saw Zhu Miaomiao come back, she immediately waved to her.

Zhu Miaomiao sat down beside her, “Grandma.”

Liu Chunjiao raised her hand to touch Zhu Miaomiao’s face, her voice was still weak and uncomfortable, “Miaomiao, this ward is very expensive, we don’t have that much money at home, don’t bother yourself with my treatment, I’m already seventy years old, I’ve lived long enough.”

“Don’t say such silly things.” Zhu Miaomiao sniffed, she laughed, “I found a part-time job during the winter vacation, the pay is pretty good, you don’t have to worry about the medical expenses, all you have to do is live well, eat well, so that I can be happy.”

“Grandma, you’re all I have, please, live to be a hundred years old.”

Liu Chunjiao was already in tears, she really felt sorry for her granddaughter.

Other children at Zhu Miaomiao’s age were carefree and had a carefree youth, but she had to shoulder the burden of a family.

The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable Liu Chunjiao felt, she felt that she was dragging her down.

But she also knew clearly that she had to live well, otherwise, Miaomiao would be even more sad.

…

In the early morning, her grandmother was already asleep.

Zhu Miaomiao sent a WeChat message to Duan Siyu, expressing her gratitude.

Duan Siyu only replied with one sentence: [I want to see you tomorrow morning at eight o’clock.]

Zhu Miaomiao knew that she owed Duan Siyu, she needed to pay him back.

So, she replied: [Okay, I’ll be waiting for you.]

–

In the VIP ward, her grandmother had dedicated staff to take care of her.

Zhu Miaomiao didn’t need to worry about anything.

She went to Junwu Garden early in the morning.

As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the manor, there were dedicated servants to greet her.

In the dining room.

A sumptuous breakfast was laid out in a row, it was comparable to a royal feast.

But the first thing Zhu Miaomiao noticed was Duan Siyu sitting at the dining table.

Duan Siyu was lazily leaning back in his chair, his fingertips held a pen, he was signing some documents.

His assistant was standing beside him.

Zhu Miaomiao had seen him before.

Zhu Miaomiao pursed her lips and didn’t speak, she was afraid of disturbing Duan Siyu, she tried to minimize her presence.

About a minute later.

Duan Siyu finished signing the documents and handed them to the assistant beside him.

The assistant quickly took them.

He wisely left the dining room.

Only the two of them were left in the dining room.

The atmosphere was eerie.

Duan Siyu looked at Zhu Miaomiao, his long fingers tapped on the table, “Come here, have breakfast with me.”

Zhu Miaomiao obediently sat down beside him.

Duan Siyu poured her a glass of milk, he said in a lukewarm tone, “You should have some free time during this period.”

“Yes.”

“Then stay here with me.”

“?”

Zhu Miaomiao was shocked, stay here, with him?

What does that mean?

Seeing the girl’s puzzled expression, Duan Siyu’s eyes curved slightly, he asked with a hint of amusement, “Is it hard to understand?”

It’s not hard.

But –

Isn’t it a little inappropriate?

Zhu Miaomiao frowned, she said, “My grandmother is alone in the hospital, I’m not very worried, and it’s almost Chinese New Year, on this day of reunion, I should be with my grandmother…”

Duan Siyu patiently listened to her finish, his expression was calm and fierce, he didn’t smile, “Zhu Miaomiao, you seem to have gotten your priorities wrong.”

“Now, I am your top priority, you must put me first in everything.”

Zhu Miaomiao’s fingertips trembled, she hummed.

This man was just a little interested in her, he hadn’t fallen in love with her yet, she couldn’t be arrogant, and she couldn’t disobey him.

Otherwise, her grandmother’s medical expenses…

Seeing that she was obedient, Duan Siyu smiled in satisfaction, “Alright, eat breakfast.”

During breakfast, Zhu Miaomiao’s face didn’t look good.

Until Duan Siyu answered a phone call halfway through.

He came back and said to her, “Come with me to Australia.”
