“Aunt Jiang asked you to answer the phone.” I said to that girl.
She turned aside her beautiful face and rolled her eyes upward,”I won’t.”
I had to tell Ling that the girl would not answer the phone. Ling said she would call the girl herself.
Then the girl’s phone did ring, so she took it out of her expensive, limited-edition designer bag, shook it, and said something in English.
My English is not very good, but I could understand what she meant, I would not answer the phone, what could you do to me anyway?
It seemed that she was very hard to handle, so I must think of another way.
I told the staff,”This person is not the patient’s family, but I am his family member. You should let me in, and if you don’t believe me, you can ask the patient directly, saying Nala Yao is here and if he can see me?”
But the staff looked embarrassed, and said that it was not in compliance and she was indeed the patient’s family.
I was so angry that I said that now that you had seen what she did and she didn’t make any sense at all, so how could you know the patient did not want to see me if you did not ask him about this thing?
“Fine, I will ask him for you.” The staff was a little confused too, so he had to agree to ask for me at last.
“What for? I won’t let her in anyway. She is just an outsider who tries to take advantage of our family. Shame on you!” The girl should start a personal attack towards me.
I finally could not control my anger,”I don’t care who you are, but you should not be so rude anyway. Seeing you wear all those clothes of famous brand, but still so uncultivated, I despise you and disdain to argue with you. I’m going to see Wenbei Su now. If you don’t let me in, I’ll go to see the Chairman myself.”
She snorted, and was a little hesitant. It seemed that although she was not afraid of others, she was still afraid of Jiye Su, who was the head of the Su family.
“Let her in.” She said to the staff.
I finally entered the first inpatient area. The staff followed, but the girl stopped him and said,”I’ll take care of it myself, you don’t have to follow.”
Since the staff might be bullied by the girl for many times, and he was a little afraid of her. So he stopped after some hesitation.
I followed the girl to the ward. The first inpatient area was VIP area and each ward was very wide, with complete supporting facilities. So there was only one patient, almost like living at home.
“I know your name is Nala Yao, and I know everything about you. I know what you mean by approaching Wenbei. You’re trying to seduce him because you want the property of our Su family.”
She talked so rudely that I want to slap her. But I resisted my anger.
“Which ward is Wenbei in?” I tried hard to hold back my anger.
“Come on, have you slept with him? You must have slept, right? Look at you. You’re the kind of woman who betrayed yourself to get what you want. Oh my god, Wenbei’s eye for a woman is really poor, how could he even take a fancy to a divorced woman like you…”
When she came to the door of a ward, she stopped. So it seemed that Wenbei was there.
“I don’t know who you are, but I suppose you are close to the Su family. Perhaps you are one of the Su family’s children? The Su family of the Yang City is recognized as a wealthy and influential one, but how can such a uncultivated person like you is related to the family? You are foul-mouthed and you really bring shame on them!”
I finally gave vent to my anger that I had held back for a long time because I really could not stand anymore!
“How dare you say that to me…” She raised her hand and wanted to hit me, but I grabbed it immediately and said,”I have been in prison, so I’m not afraid of anything. If you dare to be rude to me again, I will use a knife to cut on your face, and see if you will still be so arrogant!”
She was indeed a little frightened. She bit her lip, having a vicious expression in her eyes, but she did not dare to do anything to me.
I gently knocked at the door, and I thought I heard someone say please enter, so I pushed the door and saw Wenbei who was wearing a hospital gown.
He sat by the window, reading. He looked pale, but still very clean. And though I hadn’t come close yet, he waved his hand to me and said,”Don’t come near me!”
I froze for a moment, not understanding what he meant. But I still stopped and looked at him in surprise.
He smiled to indicate me to relax. “I have the flu, so if you get too close, you might catch it. It’s better to keep my distance.”
I also smiled,”Fine, how are you, my second brother?”
Wenbei stretched out his arms to show his muscle. “I’m fine. Just catch a cold. Why are you here, my little sister?”
I said,”I called you, but you didn’t answer. And then I heard from your assistant that you were sick. So I come to see you.”
“But didn’t the staff tell you to wear a face mask? They said the flu I caught was very contagious so we all need to wear a mask. Why don’t you wear it?”
I thought for a moment, then I realized that before I came in, the girl outside seemed to whisper something to the staff and he became a little awkward after hearing what she said. Now it seemed that this girl was deliberately trying to trick me by not telling me that I needed to wear a mask.
“Brother, who is that girl at the gate?” I asked.
“You mean Xi Su? She’s my sister, just got back from America two days ago.” Wenbei said.
“Sister?” I was a little surprised. Because she talked dirty and was very jealous, I thought she was Wenbei’s girlfriend.
“Yes, she is the daughter of Aunt Jiang.” Wenbei explained to me.
No wonder she was so beautiful. It turned out that she was the child of Ling and Jiye. However, she did not look like a girl from a respectable family at all since she was uncultivated and foul-mouthed, which was very annoying to other people.
“Oh, oh, I see.” I whispered.
“She gave you a hard time?” Wenbei asked.
“Yes, she won’t let me in. But I gave her a hard time anyway. So it’s even between us.” I laughed.
“Susie has been capricious since her childhood, and we thought she would be more mature if we send her to study abroad for a few years. But I never thought she was still the same. Anyway, you don’t need to bother to quarrel with her.” Wenbei said.
I smiled and said, changing the topic,”Your illness is really not serious? I think you look very ill.”
“I’m really fine. I’ve just been a little busy lately so I haven’t been exercising for a along time and become easy to get sick. You should learn the lesson from me, my little sister. Try to do more exercise, and do not get sick.”
“That’s good. I also do exercise, and I’m ready to go back to attend a yoga class. I will come back, my second brother, you take care and recuperate. There is a flight in the evening, and I will miss it if I’m late.”
“It’s very hard for you to go back so soon. Why not go back tomorrow? You can stay in my house and I will ask the servants to cook for you.” Wenbei said with concern.
“No, I’d better go back. Now that Susie doesn’t like me, I don’t want to have trouble with her. We’ll get together when you’re well.”
“That’s all right, it’s really hard for you to come back and forth. I will be discharged from the hospital soon, and when I recover, I will come to the Hai City to see you.”
