Shen Yin frowned. After hanging up the phone, she immediately opened the calendar and looked at the lunar date. Her lips slowly formed a line.
I was stunned for a long time before I regained my thoughts.
It turns out that Ji Nuan's birthday is coming soon.
In the past few years, Ji Sixen has spent this day outside every year. She knew that he must have gone to accompany Ji Nuan.
In the past, she would silently pray for Ji Nuan at Ji's house, hoping that she would get well soon, because Ji Sixen would always send people to keep an eye on her and not let her go out.
Shen Yin looked towards the kitchen, moved slowly, and walked over.
"I need something, please buy it for me." She picked up a piece of paper and wrote down some ingredients, "Hurry, I need it tomorrow."
"Okay, Miss Shen."
The servant took it and nodded in response.
Shen Yin knew that her note would be reported to Ji Sichen as soon as possible. She was not afraid, it was just the simplest ingredients.
She returned to the room again, closed the door, and was immersed in her own peaceful world, as if she was isolated from everyone outside.
Her hand touched the window edge and her voice was clear, "Ji Nuan, it must be very boring for you to be trapped in that place."
Then, she smiled bitterly.
"I am now locked in a cage by your brother, unable to escape."
This is what she owes the Ji family, but she doesn't know when she can pay it off.
Late at night.
Shen Yin was already asleep when she was woken up by the rapid ringtone of her cell phone. This was the exclusive ringtone she had set for her mother's cell phone.
She hadn't heard the ringtone for a long time since her family was in trouble.
I was so frightened that I picked it up immediately.
"Hello?"
However, the person who made this call was not her mother.
But a hospital nurse.
"Are you Qin Xiwan's family member? The patient's hospitalization and surgical fees are still in arrears. You'd better pay the fees within a week, otherwise, we will have to force a transfer."
"I'll be there right away."
Shen Yin lost all sleep and rushed directly to the hospital.
It turns out that her mother has been living in the hospital here for half a month.
But no one informed her that if her mother had not been in a coma and still owed medical bills, the hospital would not have found her contact information through the police.
"Family members, I hope you can pay the hospital and surgical fees as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be no way to perform a second operation. The patient's cancer cells have not spread yet. Now is the best time for treatment. If you delay any longer, problems will arise. "
The nurse took the medical record and "signed the notification."
Shen Yin held the pen, her fingers trembling slightly, and slowly signed her name.
"mom."
Looking at the person on the hospital bed with a ventilator, Shen Yin's eyes filled with tears.
Growing up, her mother was the only one who stood by her 100% and was the one who supported her when she came out of that small town.
When something happened at home, her mother's hair turned gray overnight and she even knelt in front of the Ji family and begged for mercy in every possible way.
The reason was just to save her brother's life.
For a family like theirs, hurting a rich lady like Ji Nuan is tantamount to asking for death.
It was also that day that her mother begged her for the first time.
"Xiaoyin, the Ji family said that as long as you work as a servant, they are willing to let your brother go. Mom knows that you are wronged, but can you... promise them? Mom will go with you, no matter what hard work it is. Mom will do the hard work."
Shen Yin finally agreed to a three-year appointment with Ji Sichen, just so that her mother could feel at ease.
But she didn't let her mother go to Ji's house with her.
She still can't forget how cold Ji Sichen's eyes were when he looked at her.
She knew it was hell, so she just went there alone.
So Shen Yin cut off all contact with her family. No matter how many messages they sent her, she never replied.
I didn't expect that when we meet again a few years later, it will be like this.
Tears quietly flowed down his eyes.
"Mom, I'm sorry, it's my fault."
She trembled and lowered her head, sobbing softly.
Shen Yin sat beside the hospital bed all night, and Qin Xiwan didn't even wake up. According to the nurse, patients at this stage will always be in a coma and rarely wake up.
Before leaving the hospital, she paid all her money.
But the words that the doctor said were all in my mind, "The best treatment for the patient now is surgery. The patient's body is already very weak and cannot withstand the torture and transfer to another hospital."
In other words, there is no other way except raising money.
Just then, the phone rang, it was an unknown number.
"Miss Shen, I want to meet you. You should have time, right?" This voice was particularly magnetic, deep and gentlemanly.
"Who are you?" Shen Yin felt a little wary in her heart.
She definitely doesn't know a successful person who speaks in such a calm tone.
"My surname is Yu. We met at Ji's house."
Ding.
Shen Yin could hardly hold the phone.
Of course she knew who this person was, because he suddenly visited Ji's house as a guest, and she opened the door for him, and was severely punished by Ji Sixen.
Yu Jin, the successor of the Yu family, is in charge of the lifeblood of the entire business empire. Even if Shiye is compared with the Yu family's industry, he can't do it.
And most importantly, Yu Jin is Ji Sichen's half-brother.
Because he was an illegitimate child, the relationship between Ji Sichen and the Yu family was not as harmonious as it seemed. This was something Shen Yin only learned after joining the Ji family.
The look in Ji Sichen's eyes that day was still fresh in her memory.
He grabbed her neck with such force that he was about to crush her, "If you dare to have anything to do with the Yu family, you are looking for death..."
"Sorry, you dialed the wrong number."
After Shen Yin finished speaking, he hung up directly.
Unexpectedly, Yu Jin immediately sent a message, "Miss Shen, you should be in urgent need of surgery expenses now. Cooperate with me and I can give you double the reward. Not only can you save your mother, but you can also leave here. Live a normal life.”
Every word in this message hit Shen Yin's heart.
She needs money so much.
When she walked out of the hospital gate, Yu Jin's car was already waiting there.
At that moment, Shen Yin realized how insignificant and stupid he was. The Yu Group controlled the development of Shiye in some areas.
Including this hospital that Shiye invested in, Yu Jin, as the heir, knows everything that happens here.
Could it be that Ji Sichen also knew that her mother was hospitalized here?
As soon as this thought came to her mind, the uneasiness in her heart spread like a vine.
Shen Yin secretly gritted his teeth and took a few steps over.
The car window rolled down, and there was that handsome, yet somewhat calm face. He spoke with an innate nobility in his tone.
That was the confidence given to him by the Yu family.
"Miss Shen, please get in the car."
At the same time, Ji Sichen was sitting in the office, with Assistant Liu's report in front of him.
