Chapter 517: Chapter 517 Just Bored_1
Wu nglei’s father was unwilling, yet too embarrassed to refuse the paynt outright. For a mont, they all fell silent.
Ding Jiayuan who’s straightforward and simple got the hint of Wu nglei’s father’s predicant. Rolling her eyes, she suddenly said: "Mage sister, Brother nglei’s family is not as well-off as mine. Could you lower your fee? I have twenty thousand in pocket money, and my brother could contribute so. I’ll also try to get more from my father, we should be able to gather seventy or eighty thousand, is it okay?"
Despite being a wealthy family, Mr Ding lays down strict financial limitations on his children out of high expectations for them. That said, their living standard was still much higher than the average.
Ding Jiayuan genuinely wanted to help out Wu nglei and his parents. However, to Mr Wu, who cared deeply about saving face, her words felt like a severe insult.
"Bang!" he slamd his hand on the coffee table, wearing a not-so-pleased expression and rose to his feet, saying: "No need for your concern, Miss Ding. Our family can afford a hundred thousand. Wait for it!"
He then briskly walked to the door, pulled it open and left.
Ding Jiayuan was startled by the brusque deanor of Wu nglei’s father. After a considerable pause, she timidly asked, "Uncle Wu seed irritated, but why?"
Qin Sisi remained speechless, cradling Ye You in one arm and gently rubbing her temple with the other hand.
Ding Jiawang glared at his sister, itching to reprimand her for her na??veté.
Before long, Wu nglei’s father returned, carrying a black plastic bag.
He tossed the bag on the table, brusquely adding, "Here is one hundred thousand yuan. Please keep it, Master Qin."
Qin Sisi knew that under these circumstances, this self-respecting old man would not intentionally shortchange her. Thus, without checking, she neatly picked up the black plastic bag and replied, "Thanks then."
Wu nglei’s father continued tersely: "nglei has just woken up and wants to rest properly. You’ve all had a long day, you should go back and rest too."
Qin Sisi hadn’t planned on hanging around anyway, so she gave in readily, saying: "Alright, we won’t disturb you."
As she collected the black plastic bag and walked out of the ward, Ding Jiawang politely bid Wu nglei’s father farewell, and then dragged Ding Jiayuan away.
Ding Jiayuan sowhat reluctantly left. She wanted to go back and check on Wu nglei, but Ding Jiawang pulled her away without a word.
It wasn’t until they stepped out of the hospital building that Ding Jiawang let go of his sister’s hand.
Ding Jiayuan massaged her hand that he had gripped so tightly, and pouted, "Why’d you drag
away? I could have walked by myself."
Ding Jiawang scolded her impatiently: "Would you leave without ? It seems like you’d move in there if you could! When people are trying to send you off, it’s ti to leave!"
Ding Jiayuan defended herself, saying: "Don’t make it sound so bad, Brother nglei just needs to rest."
Ding Jiawang rolled his eyes in anger, but was also reluctant to let his innocent sister bear any more psychological burdens.
Qin Sisi offered so comfort: "Wu nglei is back in good health. You don’t need to worry about him anymore."
She lifted up the black plastic bag in her hand and added, "You both also contributed to the events of tonight. Shall we split this money?"
To her surprise, both siblings showed no interest in her offer.
Ding Jiawang said, "As I said before, we were just making up the numbers; this is all your achievent."
Ding Jiayuan also declined: "Mage sister, keep it all, we don’t need the money."
"..." Qin Sisi was slightly embarrassed. Indeed, they don’t need the money.
With that, she gave up on the matter, picked up the black plastic bag, and said: "Alright, then I’ll take it all."
Then, Qin Sisi turned to look at Ding Jiawang and said, "Jiyuan has my phone number. You can call
if anything cos up."
Since she had promised Ding Jiawang before, she would keep her promise, just as Ye You would fulfill every commitnt made to the ghosts.
Ding Jiawang nodded, and politely offered, "Alright, we also need to leave. Shall we drop you off on our way?"
Qin Sisi shook her head with a smile, rejecting, "No need, there should be the early bus now, and I need to buy so stuff on my way. You should take Jiyuan back ho early!"
With that, she cast a significant glance at Ding Jiayuan. Ding Jiawang understood her aning, his eyes darkened, and he sighed helplessly.
They both could see the budding fondness and infatuation Ding Jiayuan had for Wu nglei. But with Wu nglei’s feelings unclear, and his parents seeming to disapprove of the na??ve young girl, heartbreak seed inevitable.
Qin Sisi bid farewell to the Ding siblings and left the hospital with Ye You in her arms.
By this ti, it was early morning and most breakfast shops were opening. Qin Sisi bought breakfast from a shop near the hospital, and then took the bus ho.
As soon as she got ho, Qin Sisi hurriedly inquired, holding Ye You in her arms, "Xiao Hei, are you okay?"
Ye You was sowhat out of breath after healing Wu nglei, and Qin Sisi had been nervously anticipating any signs of discomfort.
Ye You chuckled lightly and replied, "I’m fine, just a little tired."
Ever since the Magic Source was damaged, he had indeed felt a significant drop in his energy levels.
Qin Sisi felt relieved. She placed Ye You on the table, laid out breakfast in front of him, and softly said, "Let’s eat sothing. After we eat, let’s get so rest."
Ye You gave Qin Sisi a deep look; he didn’t say anything and quietly began eating.
At a ti like this, words of comfort seed pointless. He could only work on conserving his strength and gather Soul Power as quickly as possible. His aim was to return to the Demon Sacred Realm and fully recover, then he would be able to protect Qin Sisi more effectively.
After their al, the two went to bed. After the sleepless night, they were extrely tired.
They slept in each other’s arms until the afternoon.
In the afternoon, Qin Sisi continued her magic practice. In the evening, she called Boss Zheng to exchange so pleasantries and inquire about any available jobs.
Boss Zheng apologetically said, "I’m sorry, Sisi, there’s no exorcism or demon-warding work available right now. If you’re tight on money, I can loan you so."
Qin Sisi quickly interjected, "No, no, no, that’s not it, I am just... I am feeling a bit bored."
Even if Boss Zheng was trustworthy, she still didn’t want too many people to know about Ye You’s secret.
Boss Zheng laughed a few tis and said, "Okay then, rest for a while more. If new work cos up, I will notify you right away."
"Alright, thank you, Uncle Zheng." Qin Sisi thanked him gratefully. Despite not getting what she wanted, Boss Zheng’s supportive attitude ward her heart.
