Shen Congjun and Linda are now almost at their wit's end, with Shen Congjun holding a phone with the speaker on. The two are sitting in the nanny van, and upon hearing Ji Niandong say this, Linda shakes her head in disbelief.
Shen Congjun quickly replies, "How could he just be playing tricks on people? He said he wants to marry you."
"Saying he wants to marry is the trick itself. How could a man like Lu Beichen possibly marry ?" Ji Niandong sneers at herself. "Besides, aren't you clear about the kind of people I associate with?"
Shen Congjun and Linda exchange glances for a few seconds, feeling that Ji Niandong's words are not without reason. However, since Lu Beichen is willing to play such tricks with Ji Niandong, then Ji Niandong still has a chance to speak.
"Tongtong, these rich people can cut off our ways of living with just a wave of their hand. Since you can still speak to him, you must help talk to him. Uncle is still waiting for the dical fees, and once this role is secured, my current pay is much more than before. Uncle's dical fees definitely won't be a problem." Shen Congjun persuades earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Ji Niandong hurriedly asks, "The web series you fild made quite a bit of money, right? Ah Jun, please help cover the surgery fees first. Given a chance, I will certainly plead with Mr. Lu for you! I will pay you back once I earn so money."
Shen Congjun hesitates a bit, "Tongtong, the web series might have beco popular, but how much money can I earn? When it was fild, I was still a minor actor, and my pay was so little, only enough to keep myself dressed up regularly. But now my status has risen, and it's different when I take on roles. Director Zhang's films are always well-received and feature big stars. Once this role is secured, do you still worry I won't have money for you later?"
Ji Niandong's heart completely cools, and she responds indifferently, "If I had such ability, I would have gone to take high paying roles myself. Maybe I look so easy to bully that everyone cos to bully ! Ultimately, you're still not willing to lend the money, so at least return the money that I won from the New Star Award back then!"
Her intention is entirely uncooperative, and Shen Congjun's face imdiately turns cold, "It's really bad luck eting you—that's why I lost the role! You want the New Star Award money? Have you forgotten how much money was spent when you were hospitalized after the car accident back then? Adding that to the five years I've been supporting you and your dad, you already owe money! Ji Niandong, it's all your fault I ended up in this situation. If I'd known earlier, I shouldn't have taken you back then!"
He abruptly hangs up the phone!
What does he an by taking her back?
He shouldn't have taken her back after her release from the hospital from the car accident back then?
Ji Niandong presses her lips tightly, her eyes red, refusing to let the tears fall.
Five years of feelings, might as well feed them to the dogs!
She takes a deep breath fiercely; now, the most important thing is her father's surgery.
The car soon stops at New City Hospital. Every ti she enters, Ji Niandong is on edge, worried about the next paynt due.
As soon as she enters the ward, she sees Shen Congling with a backpack, lying beside the bed weeping. She must have co straight from class.
Upon seeing her, Shen Congling imdiately stands up, grabs her arm and sniffles, "Sister Tongtong, you're finally back! I was just talking to Uncle, and then the doctor ca in and said the dical fees weren't enough and threatened to stop Uncle's dicine. The doctor also said if the fees aren't paid soon, they'll start discharge procedures for Uncle. I argued with them and spent the living expenses my brother gave first — I'm so mad!"
