Uncle Chen hesitated and said: "I don't know, the bodyguard has already gone out to deal with it!"
"Where is Ji Xiuran?"
"Is Mr. Ji in the study?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Ningchu heard a familiar middle-aged man's voice coming from the door.
"Xiaochu, it's me~"
Zhao Ningchu frowned slightly and then walked to the entrance. People outside were still shouting.
"Xiaochu, I'm daddy. Come out and see daddy!"
While talking, Zhao Ningchu walked out of the door and saw Zhao Zhenguo, who was hugging the iron door tightly and not letting go.
Zhao Ningchu approached Zhao Zhenguo with a cold face and said indifferently: "Is something wrong?"
"Xiaochu, don't you let dad come in and sit down? We haven't seen each other for a long time."
"There's no need to come in. If you have anything to do, just tell me."
When Zhao Zhenguo heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
"What? Now that you are rich and promising, you dislike dad?"
Zhao Zhenguo's voice was very loud, deliberately speaking to others, but he forgot that this was a villa area, and there were basically no people in the community.
Zhao Ningchu sneered: "Dislike it? When you took my gift money and went abroad to live happily, why didn't you think that I was your daughter?"
Zhao Zhenguo smiled awkwardly: "Dad will come to see you as soon as he comes back."
'Tell me what's going on!'
"Xiaochu, I know you still hate your father because of your mother, but no matter what, we are related by blood..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Ningchu interrupted directly: "Just play the emotional card. If you have anything to say, tell me quickly."
"Dad, I heard that someone from your grandpa's family came to see you?"
Zhao Ningchu squinted her eyes and looked at the middle-aged man in front of her with caution: "Who told you?"
Zhao Zhenguo was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly said: "Is there anything else you can say? I found out about it."
Zhao Ningchu stared at him closely for a while before speaking: "Tell me, what do you want from me?"
"Xiao Chu, actually dad does have something to ask you for. Please help dad. I can't do anything."
Zhao Ningchu said impatiently: "Say!"
"Dad was defrauded of money abroad."
"so what?"
"Can you give dad some money? Dad doesn't have a dime now and he really can't survive."
Zhao Ningchu snorted coldly: "You want money? Why don't you go find your lover?"
Zhao Zhenguo looked embarrassed.
"Xiaochu, daddy only has you as his daughter, you can't ignore daddy!"
"I can give you money!"
When Zhao Zhenguo heard this, he said excitedly: "Xiaochu, I knew you wouldn't ignore daddy. You are daddy's good daughter."
"Don't rush to put such a big label on me yet, I can give you money, but there is a condition!"
Zhao Zhenguo was stunned for a moment: "What are the conditions? As long as you can give dad money, dad will promise you anything!"
"Never appear in front of me again."
Zhao Zhenguo looked at Zhao Ningchu with disbelief: "Xiaochu, what are you talking about? I am your father, how could you do this to your father?"
"Do you still want money? If you don't want it, that's fine."
Zhao Zhenguo thought for a while: "How much will you give me?"
"Half a million, never show up."
When Zhao Zhenguo heard this, he immediately jumped into action.
"What? Five hundred thousand?"
"Why is it too little?"
Zhao Zhenguo can no longer act anymore and has directly exposed his true nature.
"I spent more than 500,000 yuan raising you, and now you want to get rid of me with only 500,000 yuan?"
Zhao Ningchu sneered: "If I remember correctly, I spent my mother's money to raise me, and you are just a soft-rice man who eats soft-rice!"
When Zhao Zhenguo heard this, his face turned green and red, and he roared: "Asshole, I am your father, how dare you say this to me?"
"What am I afraid of? My mother worked so hard to support our family, but you took her money and went to find a mistress behind her back. You were so angry that she got sick and was hospitalized."
Zhao Zhenguo knew that he was in the wrong and did not continue this topic.
"Ji Xiuran is so rich, and you are a member of the Shao family on your right hand. Do you think it is possible for me to pay half a million to buy out our blood relationship?"
"Just five hundred thousand. If you like it, take it or not. Don't let me down."
"You, you unfilial daughter, I want to find a reporter to expose you."
"I don't care anymore, you go and expose it, you won't get a cent by then!"
"you……"
Zhao Zhenguo was extremely angry, but now he was really short of money. If he didn't have money, he would really drink the northwest wind.
"Fifty million is half a million!"
"Okay, I'll call your account later and don't show up again in the future."
When Zhao Zhenguo heard this, he said with some reluctance: "Is there no room for negotiation? Hand over Ji Xiuran, and I will ask him for money. He is so rich, it is a piece of cake to get him tens of thousands."
Zhao Ningchu smiled: "Okay, you go find Ji Xiuran. Do you think he will give you money if you calculate Ji Xiuran's property like this?"
When Zhao Zhenguo heard this, his pupils shrank: "What? He, he knows everything?"
"I said at the beginning, Ji Xiuran is not that stupid. You want to find him, right? I will help you call him out, but when the time comes, you can guarantee that you won't even get 50,000 yuan."
After saying that, she turned around and walked back into the house. Zhao Zhenguo quickly called out to her.
"Xiao Chu, don't call me, just give me five hundred thousand."
Zhao Ningchu stopped, with a smile on his lips, and turned to look at Zhao Zhenguo: "You can find a job, and with these five hundred thousand, it will be enough for you to live on for the rest of your life."
"Okay, as long as you give it to dad, dad will find a class and live a good life."
After Zhao Ningchu sent Zhao Zhenguo away, he returned to the house. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Ji Xiuran coming down the stairs.
He frowned slightly: "Zhao Zhenguo came to see you?"
Hearing Ji Xiuran's words, Zhao Ningchu was not very surprised. He just nodded lightly: "He came, but now he's gone again."
"What did he come to see you for?"
"I have no money, come and ask for money!"
Ji Xiuran frowned slightly: "You gave it?"
Zhao Ningchu nodded and walked towards the dining table.
Ji Xiuran came over and sat opposite her: "What did he say?"
Zhao Ningchu said truthfully: "If he wanted money, I gave him five hundred thousand and asked him not to show up again."
Ji Xiuran sneered: "Can he be satisfied with half a million? You shouldn't give it to him. If you give it this time, he will come to you next time."
"I've made it clear that if you come to me again, I won't give you a penny."
"Then let's see, are you right or me?"
Zhao Ningchu ignored him and ate breakfast in silence.
"Wait a minute and go somewhere with me!"
Ji Xiuran suddenly spoke.
Zhao Ningchu raised her eyes and looked at him: "Where are you going?"
"Hospital!"
When Zhao Ningchu heard this, her heart skipped a beat and she looked at Ji Xiuran defensively.
"You, why did you ask me to go to the hospital with you?"
Did he discover something?
It's impossible, I obviously hid it well enough.
Since the last time Ji Xiuran found out about the folic acid tablets, she had secretly changed the packaging and put them all in calcium tablet boxes. Ji Xiuran wouldn't suspect anything even if he saw them.
But now she is asked to go to the hospital?
"Remove the stitches!"
When Zhao Ningchu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Yes, he had stitches on his hand, so it was indeed time to remove the stitches.
But even so, Zhao Ningchu didn't want to go. Ji Xiuran had a volatile temper. If he really went to the hospital and suddenly asked himself to go for a check-up, wouldn't that reveal his secret?
"I dont go!"
Ji Xiuran heard this and looked at her with squinted eyes: "What did you say?"
"I don't want to go out. Besides, I have something else to do later."
"What's up?"
"Shao Sinian asked me out for dinner today!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Xiuran shouted: "No, no meeting!"
Zhao Ningchu knew what Ji Xiuran was thinking, but he just estimated that she and Shao Sinian were too close, so she would quietly follow Shao Sinian away.
"Just a quick meal!"
"Come with me to the hospital first, and then go have dinner!"
Zhao Ningchu wanted to say something else, but Ji Xiuran said in a tone that could not be refused: "I am informing you, not discussing with you."
Zhao Ningchu immediately lost his mood, put his chopsticks directly on the table, stood up and left the table without saying a word.
Ji Xiuran said so, what else could she say?
Resistance and rejection are of no use. Rather than arguing endlessly, it is better to stay out of sight.
*
When they arrived at the hospital, Zhao Ningchu didn't want to get out of the car, but he was still dragged into the hospital by Ji Xiuran.
"Your head was just being reexamined to see if there are any sequelae."
When Zhao Ningchu heard this, his face changed slightly: "No, no need for reexamination!"
Ji Xiuran narrowed his eyes and looked at her: "Zhao Ningchu, what are you afraid of?"
"No!"
"Since it's not there, then go and check again, or are you hiding something from me?"
Zhao Ningchu's hands hanging on her sides tightened unconsciously, and then slowly let go. She raised her eyes and looked at Ji Xiuran.
'Okay, I'll go check it out, and you can find a doctor to remove the stitches for you. This will save time!'
"I go with you!"
"No." Zhao Ningchu refused without even thinking.
Ji Xiuran's expression changed. Zhao Ningchu took a breath silently and softened his tone and said: "Ji Xiuran, I can check it myself. Really, you go and remove the stitches. If you finish it first, you can come to me. I'll finish it first."
If so, I’ll find you!”
"Not running?"
Ji Xiuran said this very appropriately, his tone was always calm, and there was no unnecessary emotion on his face.
But Zhao Ningchu knew that Ji Xiuran was the most wary person like this.
"Are you afraid that I will run away?"
Ji Xiuran pursed her lips and said nothing.
Zhao Ningchu sighed helplessly: "Although I really want to leave you, I am still aware of safety. Shao Xing is now looking for me to take revenge. If I run out by myself and get caught by Shao Xing, isn't that a dead end?
"
Zhao Ningchu said it clearly.
Worried that Ji Xiuran wouldn't believe it, he continued: "If it doesn't work, you can hold my bag, or you can ask the doctor who will review me to keep an eye on me."
Ji Xiuran looked at her, as if he was exploring the credibility of Zhao Ningchu's words.
After a while, Ji Xiuran finally said: "Go ahead, I'll find you after it's over!"
When Zhao Ningchu heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Ji Xiuran is not unreasonable yet.
Zhao Ningchu found her previous brain doctor. The doctor was not too surprised when he saw her and seemed to have expected that she would come.
"Figured out?"
Zhao Ningchu shook his head slightly.
The doctor was a little surprised.
"What are you doing if you don't perform surgery?"
"Dr. Zhang, can I ask you a favor?"
Dr. Zhang was a little confused and said: "You said?"
Zhao Ningchu told the doctor what had happened. When the doctor heard this, he frowned slightly and said seriously: "How is it possible that you asked me to make a false report? I am a doctor, how can I do such a thing?"
Zhao Ningchu was a little embarrassed.
She knew that the request she made was excessive, but if Ji Xiuran knew about it, would her child not be safe?
"Doctor Zhang, I beg you!"
"No, if something happens then, I won't be able to escape my involvement."
"Don't worry, I promise you that any accidents that happen later will have nothing to do with you. If you don't believe me, I will give you a written certificate."
The doctor refused without thinking.
"Impossible. If you want to have surgery, I will arrange it for you. If you don't want to do it, then go back and don't disturb me to check other patients."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Zhao Ningchu take out a check and put it on the table, then piled it in front of the doctor.
The doctor looked at the check and was stunned for half a second: "What are you doing?"
"Dr. Zhang, I heard that your wife has uremia and needs dialysis every week..."
Before Zhao Ningchu finished speaking, Dr. Zhang interrupted him with a serious look: "You bribed me?"
When Zhao Ningchu heard this, she quickly shook her head: "No, no, I just want to help you. Doctor Zhang, you have saved lives and healed the wounded and helped many patients. It is understandable for us to help you in return."
Dr. Zhang's eyes fell on the check on the table, and then he sighed.
It took a while before he said: "Thank you!"
When Zhao Ningchu heard this, he felt relieved.

When Ji Xiuran came over, Zhao Ningchu was doing an examination in the CT room. He was standing outside. Within a few minutes, Zhao Ningchu came out.
When he saw Ji Xiuran, he was stunned.
"You feel better so soon?"
Ji Xiuran said calmly: "My stitches were removed, which only took a few minutes. What was the result of your reexamination?"
"It's not out yet, it may take some time."
"Then we'll wait here."
With Ji Xiuran here, Zhao Ningchu still felt a little uneasy, fearing that some flaws would be revealed later.
She was thinking about other things, so she didn't pay attention when the doctor called her name, but Ji Xiuran reminded her.
"Why are you in a daze? The doctor is calling you, come in!"
Zhao Ningchu came back to her senses and nodded repeatedly: "Oh, then wait for me here, I will come out soon."
Zhao Ningchu stepped into the doctor's office, and Ji Xiu followed him.
When Dr. Zhang saw Ji Xiuran, he was stunned. He quickly put down the medical records in his hand and said respectfully: "Mr. Ji, why are you here? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
When Zhao Ningchu heard what Dr. Zhang said, her heart skipped a beat.
Do they know each other?
Ji Xiuran said calmly: "I came here with my wife."
Doctor Zhang glanced at Zhao Ningchu and repeated with some disbelief: "Is this Miss Zhao your wife?"
Ji Xiuran hummed indifferently and said nothing.
But at this moment, Dr. Zhang felt nervous. He regretted it now. If Ji Xiuran found out about this in the future, his job would be in jeopardy.
Zhao Ningchu saw cold sweat breaking out on Dr. Zhang's head, and probably guessed that he was timid.
She turned to look at Ji Xiuran: "Why don't you go out and wait for me. I will come out after the doctor tells me the results of the reexamination!"
"No, I'm waiting here. I just have a few questions I want to talk to Dr. Zhang!"
When Dr. Zhang heard this, he stretched out his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Ms. Zhao, before you..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Ningchu interrupted directly: "Dr. Zhang, didn't you say that after checking me, you would go off work to accompany your wife for dialysis?"
