Chapter 1131: You’re Really Ugly
?Chapter 1131: You’re Really Ugly
He would occasionally write some vague and romantic love poems. He did his best to be romantic while not wasting money.
Fortunately, Fang Feifei was a cultured youth so this worked really well on her. She didn’t notice the fact that Zhu Yanqiu was in financial straits at all.
Right now, Ning Shu was asking Zhu Yanqiu for the hospital fee. Zhu Yanqiu didn’t have enough money on him so he could only push it off by saying that he didn’t bring money and even coolly handed over his watch as collateral.
Ning Shu lifted her brows as she took the watch. This watch was a bit heavy and the craftsmanship was very refined. Even the thin clock hands had unique designs. There was no hint of large-scale quantity focused production. It was obvious with a glance that this cost quite a lot.
“How much is this worth?” asked Ning Shu.
Zhu Yanqiu’s expression was smug. “A thousand silver dollars. Is it enough to act as collateral for the hospital fee?”
What the f*ck!? Ning Shu wanted to just jab his face with her tongs until it was beyond recognition. He spent a thousand silver dollars to buy a watch? Ha. Ha. Ha.
Right now, a single silver dollar could buy over 170 catties of rice. An ordinary family of three could survive for a year on just two or three silver dollars. Five hundred silver dollars was enough to buy an ordinary house.
The things that Zhu Yanqiu did were practically inhumane. He worked Zhu Suniang pretty much to the bone while he enjoyed life and wore luxury watches.
“What use do I have for your watch? The hospital fee isn’t even a thousandth of this watch’s price. I don’t want a watch, I only want money.” Ning Shu tossed the watch back to Zhu Yanqiu and he hastily caught it. He said in annoyance, “This watch is really expensive. If you break it, you wouldn’t be able to afford the compensation.”
“Hospital fee,” said Ning Shu mildly. “It can’t be that you don’t have money, right? Faker. You’re wearing such an expensive watch when you don’t have a single cent on you?”
“I already told you. I was at a march today so I didn’t bring money.” Zhu Yanqiu’s face was bright red as he spoke. With the injuries on his face added on, his face looked purple and red.
Ning Shu simply stared at him without speaking.
In the end, one of his classmates help paid the hospital fee. Zhu Yanqiu immediately put his watch back on and thanked that friend, saying that he’d definitely repay him.
After walking out of the room, Zhu Yanqiu saw Zhu Siyuan sitting on the book and reading. The little kid looked really serious. Zhu Yanqiu’s interest was piqued, so he crouched down in front of Zhu Siyuan and asked, “Little friend, why are you here alone? What’s your name?”
Ning Shu was currently putting things away. When she saw that Zhu Yanqiu was interacting with Zhu Siyuan, her heart jumped. She was just about to get the child out of here when she heard Zhu Siyuan say to Zhu Yanqiu, “You’re really ugly.”
Zhu Siyuan’s voice was very childish, but his expression was very earnest. Ever since they had gotten to Shanghai, Ning Shu had made sure to dress Zhu Siyuan up very nicely so Zhu Siyuan looked nice, soft, and white. And right now, he was saying with such a serious expression, ‘you’re really ugly.’ Ning Shu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Zhu Yanqiu’s current appearance was quite terrible. His face was pale and purple, and with the medicine applied, it was pretty much an unbearable sight. However, being told this by a kid made him feel embarrassed and angry.
“This kid seriously has no manners.” Zhu Yanqiu threw down this remark and left.
The father and child’s first meeting ended on bad terms. In reality, this pair of father and son must have clashing birthdate characters, they never got along.
Ning Shu handed Zhu Siyuan to a nurse she was familiar with, then she said to Zhu Siyuan, “Siyuan, be good and stay here to wait for Mom. Mom will be back very soon.”
Zhu Siyuan nodded obediently.
Ning Shu took off her nurse uniform, put on a mask, and left the hospital, following after Zhu Yanqiu.
As of now, the sky was starting to darken. Zhu Yanqiu who was walking ahead didn’t notice that someone was following him. As he was passing by a small alley, Ning Shu took off her overcoat and quickly ran over to him. She threw her coat over his head, then used it to drag him into the alley.
