Chapter 1931: Chapter 1926: Playing Coy
"What’s wrong? Is there a problem?"
Seeing Feng Junjun frown unconsciously after reading the number displayed on the phone, Hu Xiaobei quickly asked with concern.
"It’s nothing!"
As she spoke, she answered the call, and due to her nervousness, she pressed the speakerphone button.
Just as she was about to turn off the speakerphone, an enraged shout came directly from the receiver, "Where the hell have you been? Didn’t I tell you to go borrow money? Your mom is about to die! Can you do it or not?"
"Sister-in-law, don’t worry, I’ve already borrowed the money, I’m coming back now."
"You’ve borrowed it? All three hundred thousand?"
"Yes!"
"Then what are you waiting for, quickly transfer it to my account, I’ll go pay the bill."
"Here’s the thing, the money hasn’t reached me yet, I’ll transfer it to you as soon as it does!"
"This is so troublesome! Hurry up, I’m waiting at the hospital."
"Alright, I..."
Before she could finish, the busy tone quickly sounded with a ’beep beep’.
...
"Junjun, tell me, what’s going on!"
When she put down the phone, Hu Xiaobei softly spoke.
Hu Xiaobei knew that things might be more complicated than he imagined.
"Here’s the thing!"
Feng Junjun took a deep breath and began to explain.
It turned out that Feng Junjun’s mother was hospitalized, and to help pay for her treatment, she had no choice but to go out and borrow money.
Lightly nodding, Hu Xiaobei asked curiously, "Was the caller earlier your sister-in-law?"
"Yes, she’s my sister-in-law."
"Did she borrow money too?"
"This..."
"Tell me the truth."
"My brother is controlled by her, and since my mom was hospitalized, they haven’t contributed a cent."
"I see."
"Xiaobei, transfer the money directly to my sister-in-law’s account now, she’s at the hospital, she can pay the bill directly."
"No! Let’s go and check the hospital, I don’t trust that person."
Hu Xiaobei had never met the woman on the phone, but he knew she was absolutely sharp-tongued and harsh.
Dealing with someone so harsh, Hu Xiaobei absolutely didn’t trust and naturally wouldn’t really transfer the money over.
"Alright then."
"Let’s go!"
...
"Mom, it wasn’t for nothing that you raised that Feng Junjun, she’s indeed resourceful, and has borrowed three hundred thousand again."
In the hospital’s single ward, a woman with golden hair excitedly pushed open the door.
A plump woman quickly sat up and said energetically, "So quickly borrowed it? If I had known this, I would have asked for more before!"
Hearing the regret in her voice, the man playing on his phone by the window lightly laughed, "Anyway, we’re just pretending to be sick. Later, I’ll have a friend say the treatment fees aren’t enough. This time we won’t mention specific amounts; let her keep raising money and see how much she can gather in the end."
"That’s a good idea! Son, today’s pork hock was a bit salty, in the future buy more roasted chicken or something. Let’s not buy pork hock anymore!"
"Alright! I got it!"
As he responded, a hint of impatience flashed in the young man’s eyes.
If she wasn’t still useful, he really wouldn’t even want to give her cabbage to eat now.
Let alone let her leisurely stay in such an upscale ward.
Noticing her husband’s slight impatience, the woman with golden hair quickly walked up to him and said, "Come out with me for a moment."
After pulling him out of the ward, she swiftly scolded him, "What’s wrong? Already impatient? Didn’t we agree before to act well? She’s our cash cow right now! If you don’t serve her well, how are we going to scam money from your sister?"
Looking at his wife, he spoke with a pained face, "Of course, I know we need to act well, but thinking of her spending our money every day makes me a bit unhappy. The cost of this ward is hundreds every day! How much is a star hotel out there?"
Hearing his frustrated words, the woman spoke quietly, "I’m not happy either, but we have to endure! Once she’s no longer useful, we’ll kick her out."
"Yeah, we can only bear it!"
While discussing, the woman suddenly said, "By the way, husband, later, discuss with your classmate to scare your sister again, so she can bring out more money."
"I will! Also, make sure to talk to that old hag, have her continue pretending. Don’t let the act slip!"
"Relax, everything is under control."
"Uh-huh!"
After planning again, their faces were filled with joy...
They felt they could continue exploiting Feng Junjun, because she indeed had considerable capability!
...
Hu Xiaobei and Feng Junjun were unaware of the situation on that side, they were now arriving outside the hospital by car.
Dressed in a tight uniform, Feng Junjun attracted everyone’s attention upon appearance.
This again turned Hu Xiaobei into a supporting character.
"It seems that in the future, I’ll have to pay more attention to my appearance too!"
Hu Xiaobei glanced at Feng Junjun and teased softly...
Soon, Hu Xiaobei walked in with her.
As they walked in, with urgent screeching brakes, a black business car came to a stop.
"Professor, what... what’s going on?"
After stopping the car, the driver quickly asked.
At this moment, he was truly bewildered.
Just now, as they were driving smoothly, suddenly the professor in a Zhongshan suit in the backseat shouted, making him stop the car.
The person called professor looked at him, quickly asking, "Did you just see Master Xiaobei walk in?"
The driver was puzzled, "Professor, who is Master Xiaobei you mentioned?"
Seeing his confused face, the professor frowned, "Are you an idiot? It’s that particularly skilled Chinese medicine doctor! We previously interacted with him, his level surpasses ours by not just a little."
"I remember, we went to Xiaohe Village to look for him before, but he didn’t seem to be in Xiaohe Village."
"Yes! I think I just saw him!"
"I didn’t notice!"
"You wait here for me, I’ll go see if it’s him."
Seeing him prepare to get out of the car, the driver was startled, quickly reminding, "Professor, we’re here today to investigate the Chinese medicine project at this hospital. Just leaving isn’t appropriate."
Impatiently frowning, he quickly waved his hand, "What’s appropriate or not, I just want to meet Master Xiaobei now, everything else can be postponed."
"I understand!"
After saying this, he watched as the professor in the Zhongshan suit hurriedly ran out.
"It seems Master Xiaobei’s influence is greater than I imagined."
Sighing, the driver parked the car aside.
He knew this matter didn’t concern him much, so waiting here was enough.
...
"Junjun, wait a moment."
After reaching inquiries, seeing Feng Junjun walking forward, Hu Xiaobei softly called out!
"Wait for what?"
"You’ll know soon!"
After Hu Xiaobei mysteriously finished speaking, he heard the ’click-click’ of footsteps.
Soon, Hu Xiaobei quickly waved.
Seeing him wave, Feng Junjun looked over and saw an alluring woman in high heels quickly approaching.
It was Hu Xiaobei’s secretary, Huahua...
Having seen her before, she recognized her immediately.
