Chapter 97 Jealousy Overflows in Nolan's Heart or Su Fox's Little Thoughts

In the ward.

be quiet
After Lin Wanyu finished speaking, she was so ashamed of her overly childish words that she lowered her head and dared not look at Gu Yifan.

Hu Yifei stood beside her with her mouth slightly open.

Suddenly, I felt a sense of relief, like watching my child grow up.

She really should have brought Zhanbo to see him, so that her still-foolish younger brother could grow up a bit more.

Perhaps this is the power of role models.

Yes, Ms. Hu's eyes lit up. It was precisely because Gu Yifan possessed excellent and noble qualities, and was always ready to help those in need, that he was able to inspire Lin Daiyu.

'Gu Yifan is such a perfect person.'

Unsurprisingly, this is how Hu Yifei sees Gu Yifan now.

As great as the sun!
"Gu Yifan, I will definitely report your touching deeds to the school leaders when school starts. Maybe you will be one of the top ten touching figures on campus this year!"

"Huh?" Gu Yifan was wondering why Lin Wanyu had come out to join in the fun when he heard this and turned to look at Hu Yifei in surprise.

Seeing Hu Yifei's sincere gaze, as if saying, "I once wronged a good person. If you give me another chance, I will never doubt you again."

[Master Hu realizes he misunderstood you; he never expected you to be such an exceptionally kind person, one in a million. Master Hu's favorability +5!]

Gu Yifan: "."

How could he not understand Ms. Hu's emotional journey?

Oh well, let her think what she wants.

It's a pity for Gu Yifan; he could have easily become a millionaire, but now it seems unlikely.

Spending money on Cyndi's medical treatment should definitely be included in the teammate's rebate. Five times the 300,000 is 1.5 million!

If Gu Yifan knew that his image in Lin Wanyu and Hu Yifei's eyes was already close to perfect.

I'd definitely feel ashamed.

Gu Yifan knew he could get a rebate, which is why he didn't hesitate at all, but they didn't.

but.
Gu Yifan glanced at Lin Wanyu, whose gaze was resolute, and abandoned the idea of ​​persuading her.

There was something Gu Yifan didn't say, for fear of discouraging Lin Wanyu.

Although those bags and jewelry were very expensive when she bought them, it's hard to say what will happen if she sells them.

On the one hand, she certainly wouldn't still have receipts or other proof that it's genuine; on the other hand, even if she could, the buyback price would be very low.

Well, if Lin Wanyu can't be sold, Gu Yifan plans to buy her himself. He wonders if that will trigger the rebate.

After seeing that Cyndi showed no signs of waking up.

Gu Yifan then decided to hire a caregiver, since he couldn't stay here every day to take care of Xinling.

I found out after asking around that professional caregivers are ridiculously expensive, especially since Cyndi is completely unable to take care of herself.

Prices range from a couple hundred yuan per day to four or five hundred yuan for more expensive options, and the services vary accordingly.

Keep in mind that most people at that time only earned a little over a thousand yuan a month.

Of course, there are cheaper options, such as hospital caregivers, but it's impossible to get attentive care from them.

"They're all so expensive."

Lin Wanyu accompanied Gu Yifan to inquire about the caregiver, and after learning the price, they both felt it was somewhat outrageous.

Gu Yifan looked at Lin Wanyu, who had suddenly become virtuous, with amusement. This is what happens when you don't manage a household and don't know the cost of firewood and rice.

"Is it expensive? I don't think so."

"Wow! Gu Yifan, tell me the truth, is your family extremely wealthy?" Lin Wanyu exclaimed, her eyes widening dramatically.

"Why don't you give me this money, and I'll take care of Xinling?" Lin Wanyu's eyes lit up as she volunteered.

She also realized that she could no longer continue to live off her savings and should think about how to make a living.

"You?" Gu Yifan shook his head. "Forget it."

"Hey! You think I'm not good enough?!" Lin Wanyu persisted, pulling Gu Yifan aside and demanding an explanation for why she wasn't good enough.

"I'm fine! I'm fine! Use me, use me!"

"Can you stay in the ward all day, let Xinling move around every ten minutes, wipe her with a wet towel every day, and deal with her excretions?" Gu Yifan asked Lin Wanyu.

"The more expensive ones all offer 24-hour care, which is very tiring."

Lin Wanyu really wanted to show off and say she could do it, but seeing the look in Gu Yifan's eyes, she awkwardly kept quiet.

"Well, you can pick a cheaper one too."

Gu Yifan shook his head, "Forget it, let's go for the more expensive one."

The more caregivers paid, the more they earned, and Xinling felt more comfortable, so he also earned more.

Why not achieve the best of all three?

Lin Wanyu was a little confused about Gu Yifan's actions. Was he really going to be this attentive to a girl he had only known for a few days?

As she was thinking, a thought suddenly flashed through Lin Wanyu's mind.

Could it be that Gu Yifan likes Xinling?
Otherwise, Lin Wanyu couldn't understand why Gu Yifan was so willing to spend money on a girl he had only known for a few days.

Gu Yifan was unaware that his overly generous behavior towards Xinling had triggered a sense of crisis in Lin Wanyu.

He eventually chose a woman in her thirties as his caregiver.

The woman looked honest and hardworking; she had previously worked as a caregiver at the hospital and was quite familiar with the doctors.

She has taken care of several elderly people who were unable to care for themselves, and she was very dedicated to them. In the end, even the family members felt that the elderly were a burden and wanted her to leave, so they dismissed her.

The women insisted on not accepting money and cared for the elderly man until his death, maintaining his dignity in his final moments.

It was Cyndi's doctor who introduced Gu Yifan to her.

He thought this young man was really good; not only did he save a life, but he was also willing to pay the girl's medical expenses, so he recommended this caregiver to Gu Yifan.

Of course, now that there's a caregiver, Gu Yifan won't just abandon Xinling like that.

He planned to visit Xinling every day and use his spiritual power to give her a massage, regardless of whether it would work or not, even if it only had a little effect.

Complete all the necessary procedures.

Gu Yifan asked Lin Wanyu and Hu Yifei to buy him a cell phone, and to pick a cheap one to use for now.

After all, there's been no word on my last phone since then, so it's probably lost. Even though phones don't have many functions these days, it's still pretty inconvenient not being able to make calls.

Gu Yifan returned to Xinling's hospital room alone.

open the door.

The warm afternoon sun shone through the window into the room, and fresh flowers that Gu Yifan and Lin Wanyu had bought were placed on the bedside table next to the hospital bed.

Xinling lay peacefully in her hospital bed, like Snow White who had eaten a poisoned apple.

Unfortunately, the vibrant flowers only made the pale and weak appearance of the girl lying motionless on the bed seem even more pitiful.

Gu Yifan walked step by step to the bedside.

He sat down and looked at the girl lying on the bed with her eyes closed.

Cyndi Wang's life was full of hardships, and she collapsed just before she was about to go to university.

I don't know if there will be any chance for him to wake up.

Gu Yifan sat for a while, then hesitantly reached out and took Xinling's hand. It was very soft and slightly cold.

The doctor advised me to talk to her more, as the patient can actually hear me.

"Xinling, you're tired. Take a good rest for a day and you'll wake up."

“Last night, the woman with me was my sister, Su Weiwei, a lawyer. She got drunk last night, and I took her to the intersection to get a taxi home.” Gu Yifan paused here, hoping to see a subtle reaction from Xinling.

But Cyndi was still lying in bed like Sleeping Beauty.

Gu Yifan took a deep breath and continued, "I don't know if you liked the clothes from that day. I'm sorry I didn't tell you directly, but you looked really pretty in them."

"School starts in a month and a half, and if possible, I'd like to see you at school."

Gu Yifan did say quite a lot, though Xinling remained silent.

But miracles obviously don't happen that easily.

Gu Yifan put down Xinling's hand, which had become warm. There was a little sweat on his forehead. He had just infused Xinling with some spiritual energy, but he was now feeling a bit tired.

"I'll be going now, I'll come see you again tomorrow."

After saying that, Gu Yifan waited for a moment, but did not hear the timid "Brother Yifan".

Only then did he stand up.

At this moment, the sunlight outside the window gradually began to transition towards sunset, elongating Gu Yifan's shadow, which just covered Xinling's serene cheek.

As they left the hospital.

Gu Yifan asked the system in his mind, "System, is there any way to wake Xinling up?"

[The host currently has no better method; perhaps increasing one's strength might lead to a way to awaken the beauty.]

Gu Yifan noticed that the system did not say it did not exist, but only that it did not exist at present.

"So there's a way?"

The system did not answer.

However, Gu Yifan paused for a moment and turned to look at the white hospital ward building illuminated by the setting sun.

"Improving your strength, huh? Don't worry, Xinling, I'm sure I can find a way to awaken you."

For no other reason than Xinling's heartfelt trust in him.

Night falls.

Inside a beverage shop outside the Shanghai Radio Building.

Girls often don't like to eat dinner, claiming it's for dieting, but they never mind ordering a cup of milk tea, even though it's higher in sugar.

Nuolan looked at her best friend who had come to see her, somewhat puzzled. "Weiwei, didn't you say you were busy with an important case and didn't have time to rest? Why did you come all this way to see me today?"

Across from her, Su Weiwei, dressed in a white dress, looked pure and beautiful yet exuded a mature and sophisticated charm. She rested her chin on her hand, took a sip through her straw, and then smiled.

"It's about balancing work and rest, but someone kept urging me to take a day off, and I couldn't argue with them."

"Oh, so our Weiwei listens to other people's opinions too." Nuolan was clearly surprised and asked curiously, "Who? Someone from your law firm?"

"Hey, he's just a guy who seems quiet and reserved, but he's actually pretty good at flirting," Su Weiwei said casually with a foxy smile.

Nuolan was clearly curious about this boy, after all, her best friend had never been interested in men.

Or rather, Su Weiwei has a somewhat wicked sense of humor; she tends to be more friendly to boys first, appearing innocent and kind.

Wait until the boy starts clinging to you, then decisively reject him and create distance.

Of course, Nolan also has this kind of quirky sense of humor.

She only does this to get rid of those who bother her when she's really annoyed by someone or when she encounters something upsetting.

So the two sisters do have some things in common.

But Su Weiwei just smiled and remained silent, changing the subject, "By the way, I also saw that girl last night."

"Which girl?" Nuolan asked, somewhat confused.

Su Weiwei explained, "It's that girl next to Xiao Fan. You absolutely don't believe her identity!"

"What, could she be some rich young lady?" Nuolan's smile faded slightly upon hearing about the girl beside Gu Yifan, and she pouted as she spoke.

"Wow, little Lanlan guessed it all right away?"

"Huh?" Nolan exclaimed in surprise.

Su Weiwei beckoned to Nuolan with her finger.

"What are you doing?" Nuolan looked at her best friend warily, afraid of falling into her trap again.

“Come here and I’ll tell you,” Su Weiwei said innocently.

"No need, you can say it here!" Nuolan immediately refused. Looking at Su Weiwei's bright red lips, she had a bad feeling. Was Su Weiwei planning to kiss her directly? And that lipstick was waterproof and could only be removed with makeup remover.

"Tsk~"

Seeing that her plan had been seen through by her best friend, Su Weiwei felt bored. "Xiao Lanlan, how come you're getting smarter and smarter? It seems I need to get Xiao Fan back to your side soon."

"what the hell."

Nuolan's cheeks flushed instantly. "What does this have to do with Gu Yifan?"

“When he’s around, you never think before you speak. Every sentence you utter starts with ‘Gu Yifan!’ followed by an order,” Su Weiwei said slowly, her eyes crinkling with a smile.

"Nonsense!" Nuolan glared at him. "That's enough. I've never ordered him around like that."

"That was all when I was a child."

Su Weiwei shook her head with a click of her tongue, "Childhood traumas often take a long time to heal. Xiao Fan has been bullied quite a bit by you."

Nuolan fell silent, and it was clear that she was also somewhat regretful.

Seeing this, Su Weiwei stopped keeping her in suspense and took out a thick stack of documents from the file bag next to her, handing them to Nuolan.

"What's this?!"

"That girl's information... don't forget what your good friend does." Su Weiwei idly examined her manicure. "What do you think, how about I change my manicure to purple?"

"You want to be the Tree Demon Granny?" Nuolan retorted.

"Pah, pah, pah! Even if she's a female ghost, she's Nie Xiaoqian—the kind who bewitches scholars to death," Su Weiwei retorted.

But Nuolan didn't reply; she had already quickly started flipping through the thick stack of documents in front of her.

"The daughter of the chairman of the Lin Group has run away from home? A reward of five million is offered for information?"

"What are all these things?"

Nuolan looked up at the composed Su Weiwei with a puzzled expression, her eyes gradually showing surprise and shock, her mouth forming an "o" shape.

"You mean...it's her?"

"Hmm, you got it right, but unfortunately you didn't want the reward." Su Weiwei smiled slyly and charmingly.

Nolan's heart was pounding. "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"I've checked." Su Weiwei became more serious, straightened her slender waist, and rested her hands on the table as she spoke.

"This girl's name is Lin Wanyu. She went missing six days ago. It is said that she came to Shanghai on a plane from New York."

"Xiao Fan also flew back that day."

"Also, I carefully compared the photos. Look, this is a photo I took under the guise of taking the opportunity." Su Weiwei then handed a photo printed on A4 paper to Nuolan, whose eyes were glazed over.

It included almost everyone; Su Weiwei took the photo when everyone was drunk and relaxed.

Nuolan's gaze immediately fell on her disobedient younger brother, whose appearance was the most eye-catching in the crowd. Then she saw a lovely girl leaning against him, who also had a generous smile.

She was still holding Gu Yifan's arm with one hand.
Nuolan quickly compared the photos of Lin Wanyu in the materials, and the girls in the two photos were almost identical.

This is enough to prove that it is the same person.

After confirming this, Nolan sat blankly in her chair, unable to utter a single word.

Oh my god!
Her shy, dim-witted younger brother really did bring home a rich girl!
