The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

Chapter 1251: I Want to Make You Stay (129)

“Alright,” Xiao Bai assented and scurried away.

“Chief Fan, why are you here?”

Fan Shixin answered, “Umm... I was here to handle something. What about you? How did you... who dumped... you here?”‘

“My family.”

“Huh? Your family?”

Mu Wansheng had broken out into a cold sweat because of the excruciating pain. “Yeah. I don’t know if my mother had broken my legs or what, but I can’t feel them at all. I passed out and woke up here.”

Fan Shixin immediately figured out what had happened. Yet, he could not tell her.

“Why did your mother do that to you?”

“Because I refused to obey her,” she answered.

Instead of probing further, Fan Shixin answered, “My subordinates will be coming soon. Bear with it for a little while.”

“Yeah. Well... I’m really sorry about the matchmaking session. I didn’t mean to play a prank on you,” said Mu Wansheng, who still felt embarrassed about the blind date that they had.

“You’ve already apologized and explained things to me that time. I didn’t take it to heart.”

“That’s good.”

Fan Shixin rested her head on his lap and half-knelt onto the ground so as to ease himself into a comfortable position. He then leaned forward to move closer toward her.

Mu Wansheng could smell the unique masculine scent on him. When they were mere inches apart, she bit her lip and asked, “Once your people are here, could you not send me back to the Mu family home? Can you send me to the hospital instead?”

Appalled by her question, Fan Shixin answered, “Of course we’ll have to send you to the hospital first. Why would we send you back home? You’re severely injured. We can’t afford to delay your treatment.”

“Could I ask something of you, Chief Fan?”

“Go ahead.”

“Could you hide this from my family? Please,” she said with tears in her eyes.

Fan Shixin stared at her and agreed with a nod, “Alright.”

Xiao Bai arrived half an hour later together with Xiao Huang and Xiao Lu. They put Mu Wansheng onto the stretcher and carried her painstakingly onto the road.

Xiao Bai opened the car door while Fan Shixin carried Mu Wansheng into the backseat carefully before closing the door.

Everyone hurriedly got inside the car. Xiao Huang asked, “Chief, which hospital should we go to?”

“The First People’s Hospital. Has Young Madam heard about it yet?” Fan Shixin asked.

“Yes. I happened to bump into Young Madam at home and she asked me about it so I answered her truthfully,” said Xiao Bai.

“Okay,” said Fan Shixin.

Mu Wansheng was lying in his embrace. She was in so much pain that she almost passed out again.

The car zoomed along the streets, and they arrived at the hospital in no time.

Fan Shixin carried her to the emergency room. As soon as he lowered her onto the bed, Mu Wansheng grabbed his shirt tightly and murmured, “Don’t go, wait for me to come out, I have something to say to you...”

He expressed assent and watched her get wheeled into the operating theater.

He could have left right after she was sent to the operating theater. However, he now had to wait for her to be wheeled out before he could leave, just like she had requested.

Besides, she even forbade me from informing her family. Who’s supposed to take care of her while she’s hospitalized, then?

Oh, right, her boyfriend.

Fan Shixin sat on one of the chairs in the corridor and waited quietly for the operation to be over.

More than four hours later, the operation finally ended.

Mu Wansheng was then wheeled into the ward. Noticing how pale she was, Fan Shixin said, “Get some sleep while the effects of the anesthetic are still potent. What’s your boyfriend’s mobile number? I’ll call him and get him to come here to take care of you.”

She shook her head and said, “No... thank you for helping me pay for the medical bills, I’ll return the money to you in the future. We’ve only met twice and you’re doing me such a huge favor. You’re really a kind man. Thank you.”

“You won’t let me call your family or your boyfriend, you...” said Fan Shixin, who felt that there really had to be someone to take care of her since she was immobile.

“I’ll be fine. It’s been hard on you tonight. Go back and get some rest,” she answered, hanging her head low.

“I’ll come again in the morning.” As soon as he finished speaking, he left the ward. For some reason, Mu Wansheng felt that she could rely on him even though he was almost a stranger.

When the surgeon entered, Mu Wansheng asked, “Doctor, how much does my surgery cost?”

“It costs more than 80 thousand dollars. The surgery was split into two segments. One was for reconnecting the bones in both your legs and the other was for repairing the fracture in your rib.”

Turns out I had broken my rib when I rolled down the hill. No wonder my upper body hurts so much.

She knew that her surgery would definitely be expensive, considering how heavily injured she was. However, she did not expect it to cost that much. The total bill would total up to 100 thousand dollars, including the costs for the post-surgery treatment.

It was a massive sum for her. The only reason she did not wish to inform her boyfriend about it was that she did not want to add on to his burden. He could only afford the down payment of their new home after borrowing money from his family members, and he had barely any money left. She knew that he wouldn’t be able to afford her hospital bills and would instead feel even more emotionally burdened.

She did not expect that Fan Shixin would pay such an expensive bill for her.

A sudden warmth filled Mu Wansheng’s heart. She was determined to work hard and return the money to him once she’s fully recovered.

“‘Ms. Mu, these are your clothes,” the nurse said while bringing her clothes to her, which had been stored in a plastic bag.

“Leave them on the table.”

“Okay.”

After the nurse left, Mu Wansheng grabbed the bag of clothes and took out her mobile phone to check for her SIM card. Once she made sure that it was still there, she placed her mobile phone back inside the bag, only to discover that there was a piece of paper there too.

Mu Wansheng took out the piece of paper to see that there was a message written on it: I didn’t want to dump you here, but if you have to blame someone, blame it on your mother. If you manage to survive, relay my message to her. Tell her that there’s no way she can escape the responsibility for my death, which took place sixteen years ago. Tell her not to get too caught up with living comfortably. I’m still alive.

She read through the message over and over again before tearing it into pieces and dumping the pieces onto the ground with a look of melancholy in her eyes.

....

It only dawned on Fan Shixin that he should have made her sign an IOU after he left the hospital.

After all, she was just a stranger. He only knew her name and they weren’t friends.

Besides, it was not a small sum of money, and he should have made her sign an IOU to ensure that he would be getting his money back.

But she said that she would return it to me in the future. She doesn’t seem like the type to go back on her word.

He decided to stop brooding over it.

It was already the wee hours of the night. To his surprise, An Xiaoning was not asleep yet and was instead waiting for him.

“Young Madam, why aren’t you asleep yet?”

“What do you think?” An Xiaoning pointed at the living room and said, “Let’s talk over there.”

He followed her.

An Xiaoning looked at him and asked, “How’s her injury?”
