Sun Chan felt as if she had been electrocuted, and all the hairs on her body stood up. She sat up straight away, nervously looking in the direction of the yard. It sounded like Sun Lijuan's voice. Could it be that she had co looking for her?
"I ca all the way here, are you still pretending to be dead? Co out!"
Sun Chan's heart was pounding. Was it Sun Lijuan herself, or did she bring a lot of people with her? Was she going to be taken back tonight?
Wang Dan and a few other girls had been woken up by the commotion. Upon hearing the voice, Wang Dan quickly beca alert too, pulling on her clothes and heading outside.
Sun Chan also packed up her things a bit: "If things don't work out, I'll leave. I can't let you be troubled, I can just jump out from the small courtyard at the back."
Wang Dan shook her head and said, "I won't let her in, this is my place. Can she just co as she pleases?"
"But..." Sun Chan didn't want to burden her, but Wang Dan was completely unconcerned and firmly held her hand.
The woman outside continued to smash the door: "Damn bastard! I just finished my night shift, and you can't even co to pick up? Are you looking to die?"
It turned out to be the neighbor woman. From the sound of it, her husband was drunk and hadn't co to pick her up from her night shift, so she was throwing a fit outside.
It was actually a false alarm, but Sun Chan was startled into a sweat. It felt as if all her strength had been drained away, and she leaned against the wall.
Wang Dan held her hand: "Don't worry, it's not her, everything's fine."
Sun Chan let out a bitter smile. She thought, although nothing happened today, there was no guarantee that such a thing wouldn't happen in the future, and she would continue to burden Wang Dan.
Lin Hongi leaned against the doorway, half smiling. She was already dissatisfied with Wang Dan bringing Sun Chan along, and seeing their reactions, she could tell there was definitely sothing going on.
She muttered: "What are you two worried about? Did Sun Chan do sothing she shouldn't have?"
She glanced at Sun Chan. Upon closer look, she was indeed sowhat attractive, which made her even more resentful.
"Alright, continue sleeping, what does it have to do with you?" Wang Dan gave her a look.
"That's not right. We all live together; if she did sothing wrong, I don't want to be implicated."
Wang Dan sneered: "And you're completely innocent and free of mistakes? Worrying about others? I can barely manage with old bedding with Sun Chan right now! One more word, and don't bla for speaking my mind!" Wang Dan's one sentence rendered Lin Hongi speechless. She angrily went back, covering her head with a blanket.
Sun Chan temporarily settled at Wang Dan's place. Apart from Lin Hongi's continuous cold remarks, everyone else was pretty kind to her. However, she herself didn't want to stay there, not wanting to affect Wang Dan. She also started planning for herself, thinking about what to do if Zhao Xiuxia found her. In such a small town, it was only a matter of ti.
Fortunately, on the third day, the hospital admitted an elderly lady who was paralyzed and unable to care for herself. She was staring with two cloudy eyes, calling out. She was incontinent, even worse than the uncle Aunt Wang was taking care of.
Though she had several sons and daughters-in-law, none of them were willing to take care of her. They just wanted to hire a caregiver.
Aunt Wang quickly introduced Sun Chan for the job. Bai Fanglan tried her best to block and obstruct, but since the job was exhausting and dirty, no other caregiver wanted to take it.
In the end, they had to hire Sun Chan. Upon knowing the news, Sun Chan was very happy.
Bai Fanglan was so angry in the office that she threw files around, feeling very depressed. She rembered that day when she slapped Sun Chan and even suspended her for three days, causing her to miss out on an opportunity to study abroad. She was trembling with rage, but grandfather only said, "You were too impulsive, offending people without knowing. I spoke to the director, you can go next ti."
"Grandpa! I don't care; you must fire her!"
"Enough, I'm busy. Don't bother with such trivial matters!" Bai Chuan wrapped up the conversation and headed to the study. He was preoccupied with other important matters, having no ti to deal with such minor issues.
Knowing there was no room for overturning the situation, Bai Fanglan wished Sun Chan would disappear imdiately, but this woman stubbornly stayed, just to get on her nerves!
Because the relatives requested 24-hour care, they set up a small bed next to the patient's bed where Sun Chan stayed, so she didn't have to go to Wang Dan's anymore.
Sun Chan worked very diligently, combing hair, washing face, wiping body, cleaning up the excrents, doing all well. The relatives were quite satisfied.
Although the old lady didn't make it and passed away less than a week later, Sun Chan's reputation for being responsible and caring spread. More people started seeking her services, and Sun Chan's wallet gradually grew fuller.
The money gave Sun Chan unprecedented confidence. In her past life, she had no money, and her fate rested in soone else's hands. But in this life, she decided to strive hard for herself, to live, and live with dignity!
Wang Dan suggested she buy so nice clothes, but she refused. She was not particular about eating or dressing; since she worked every day, it was inconvenient to wear nice clothes.
With money, she first visited a bookstore and bought several books, all about how to care for patients. She realized she knew very little about dical knowledge and had to catch up, so as not to accidentally hurt soone, which was not a joke. She seized every opportunity to read and learn, while working as a caregiver to earn money. In less than a month, she lost a considerable amount of weight, but her spirits were high.
Han Dong secretly inquired about Sun Chan's whereabouts, looking for her for quite so ti before discovering her location. But Sun Chan always remained distant, entirely ignoring him.
She wore shabby clothes daily, occupied with taking care of people, fetching water, delivering als, assisting patients with personal care. So unreasonable patient relatives spoke harshly, and he couldn't help wanting to punch them when he overheard, but Sun Chan always calmly listened and explained. Her temperant was mild but not submissive. She hardly suffered losses, having quite an interesting character.
Sun Chan naturally knew soone was always discreetly watching her, but she couldn't be bothered to acknowledge it, pretending not to know.
That day, the patient Sun Chan was caring for was discharged. She was about to look for Wang Dan when a young aide stopped her.
Her na was Li Zhaodi, from the sa village as Aunt Wang. She had been around for two weeks already, and she was quite familiar, from a pretty impoverished family with four or five sisters and a younger brother. She wore patched-up clothes, and her family tried to sell her several tis to exchange for dowry.
She managed to escape, and Sun Chan felt sorry for her, rembering her own past. So, while providing als sotis, she would occasionally bring her a bun.
Li Zhaodi was naturally very grateful, calling her "Big Sister" repeatedly. Sun Chan felt it was nice to have a relative.
