An Yin’s eyes froze for a mont, but she quickly responded, "Thank you for your trouble."

"No need to be polite." Shi Qing watched as An Yin stood at the end of the line, whispered, "Are you planning to take full responsibility?" Earlier, An Yin had explained the whole situation over the phone, and Shi Qing felt that this incident shouldn’t be entirely An Yin’s fault.

An Yin looked timid and weak, maybe that’s why people decided to pin it on her.

"This matter was originally my fault." An Yin lowered her head.

"Have you checked the surveillance footage from when it happened?" Shi Qing frowned, hitting the nail on the head.

"No." An Yin shook her head in confusion.

"I think you should first check the surveillance footage, because if you pay upfront now, you might not get the money back later."

Shi Qing had grown up in a harsh environnt, and when her mother was short of money, she had engaged in scams like this. Although eventually, Shi’s mother was exposed by the public, she learned a lesson and never dared to make money through dubious ans again.

An Yin’s eyes flickered slightly; the things Shi Qing ntioned had never occurred to her. When she saw soone injured, her first reaction was to assu she had knocked them over.

"But now they’re lying in the hospital, and the nurse is urging to make a paynt. I really don’t know what to do." An Yin watched as her turn in the paynt line approached, feeling extrely anxious.

"Give the exact location and na of the store; I will go there and check the surveillance footage for you." Shi Qing’s face was calm and composed.

Upon hearing the suggestion, An Yin felt a sheen of embarrassnt on her face, "Shi Qing, you’re amazing!" An Yin genuinely admired Shi Qing; a woman with such a clear mind made An Yin feel ashad of herself.

Hearing An Yin’s sincere complint, a faint blush appeared on Shi Qing’s face, "Address."

An Yin was startled at first but then quickly provided the detailed address and the na of the store.

After discussing, the two agreed to cover so of the fees first. After the paynt, they parted ways, and An Yin headed to the ergency room, only to find the door already open. A nurse told her the woman had been moved to a VIP ward.

An Yin hurried to the ward, and upon knocking and entering, she heard the woman talking loudly on the phone.

"Don’t co over; I’m being taken care of here."

"Don’t worry, I’m fine."

"I know, you all just stay at ho and don’t worry about ."

"..."

As the woman chatted enthusiastically, she noticed the young girl standing at the entrance, her clear eyes innocently blinking at her, looking as innocent as could be!

The woman montarily forgot she was on the phone, until her daughter’s urgent voice ca through, prompting her to hurriedly say, "My back is starting to hurt again, can’t talk, need to lie down."

She quickly hung up the phone, and glanced sowhat uneasily at the young girl.

"Didn’t you know to knock when coming in? It’s so rude to eavesdrop on soone else’s call." The woman quipped sarcastically.

An Yin felt very conflicted; from the woman’s reaction, it seed she had refused her family’s visit.

"I knocked." An Yin explained.

As if not hearing An Yin’s words, the woman ordered, "I’m thirsty and want so water."

"Okay."

"I feel like eating so fruit."

"I’ll go buy it."

"I want cherries and strawberries." The woman didn’t notice the growing dismay on the young girl’s face, continuing, "By the way, get so apples too."

An Yin took a couple of steps forward and, seeing the personal dical profile of the woman on the bedside, said mildly, "Aunt Liu, I’ve just paid for your dical expenses, and there’s not much money left. Can we skip buying the fruits?"

"Little girl, I just want so fruit, why are you acting pitiful in front of ?" Mrs. Liu raised her voice, scolding the young girl standing before her.

"It’s not that, I..."

"I don’t care; I just want them. Go buy them and stop standing here getting in my way." Mrs. Liu assertively looked at the young girl, speaking with vigor.

An Yin took a deep breath, thoroughly having no way to deal with the other party.

She turned around dejectedly to leave.

"Rember to pick ones of better quality." Mrs. Liu fretted looking at the young girl’s dispirited form.

An Yin’s steps halted, thinking the woman might retract her words, only to realize she was overthinking it.

As she left the room, she happened to run into a doctor in a white coat.

The doctor saw the young girl coming out of the room and fixed his gaze on her, then spoke, "Miss An!"

An Yin looked up, confused by the address. How did the doctor seem to know her?

"Hello!" An Yin looked at him puzzled.

The doctor saw the confusion and quickly explained, "We’ve t before when you were hospitalized here, maybe you don’t rember."

"Sorry." An Yin gave a shy smile, indeed she had forgotten.

Her words did not bother the doctor; rather he asked warmly, "Who is Mrs. Liu to you?"

"I’m not familiar with her." A wry smile appeared at the corner of An Yin’s mouth.

"You just ca out of her ward, right?"

"Yes." An Yin nodded, sensing the curiosity in his eyes, and told the story of how she accidentally knocked the woman over.

After listening, the doctor’s brows furrowed, "After a detailed examination, Mrs. Liu’s physical condition is perfectly normal; as for her back pain, nothing was found upon examination. However, Mrs. Liu requested hospitalization for observation, so we had to comply."

"The examination results showed no issues?" An Yin looked up, her face full of excitent, at the much taller doctor.

"Yes." The doctor confird.

"Then..." An Yin was about to ask if Mrs. Liu could be discharged.

Thinking about Mrs. Liu’s constant complaints of back pain, An Yin feared she might overlook so aspects of the examination.

In her dilemma, the doctor suddenly smiled, "Miss An, what do you want to say?"

"N-nothing." An Yin shook her head awkwardly.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, they went their separate ways.

An Yin went downstairs intending to buy so fruit, but after wandering around, found that the fruit near the hospital was too expensive. In all the stores she checked, it was the sa. But since the woman had specified those fruits, An Yin reluctantly bought a little of each, spending over two hundred yuan.

Carrying the light shopping bag to the ward’s entrance and spotting the door ajar, she walked straight in, hearing a familiar voice from inside the ward.

Walking down the corridor, she saw Shi Qing standing by the bed, confronted with a serious expression.
