“Nurse! I want to be discharged right now!" Chen Hua happily announced. This guy was so rich he could afford to give me an entire house!
“Oh! Ms.Chen Hua, that’s wonderful news! Was there a family member who recognized you?” Questioned the nurse with an unnatural smile.
“Oh no, he’s not a family member.” Chen Hua laughing replied. He’s just some sucker that’s going to give me a house! And I know the reason behind your smile!
“Hmm? Did you regain your memory? Is it your boyfriend perhaps?”
“Of course not! I’d have unlocked the phone and called him if I did!”
“Wait...Do you even know this man?” By this point, any traces of a smile was already wiped off the nurse’s face. Instead, it was replaced with a frown of concern.
“Of course! I just met him a while ago.”
Upon hearing Chen Hua’s response, if the nurse could spit out blood in disbelief, she would have. “Ms.Chen Hua, are you certain you want to leave with him? It could be dangerous for you.”
Dangerous? I Chen Hua am a man, a manly man! Not some pathetic weak girl! When danger sees me, it runs away instead!
“There’s absolutely no problem! I am capable of taking care of myself!” Swinging his massive ego in the face of the nurse Chen Hua the cripple bragged.
“I think I’m going to call the police…”
However, before the nurse could do so, Cheng Yu’s patience had run thin and had gone into the hospital to fetch Chen Hua. With a gentleman’s smile plastered on his face, Cheng Yu greeted the nurse and stole her heart. “Hello there beautiful. I’m here to pick up this person in the wheelchair, that’s fine right?”
Chen Hua pouted in envy of Cheng Yu’s specs as a man. What a f*cking player! As expected of men like him! Even a fraction of his looks would be good enough for me!
Mistaking Chen Hua’s pouting face for jealousy, the nurse hurriedly said, “Oh there’s no problem at all! I actually think Ms.Chen Hua here is extremely fortunate to be taken care of by you! But what’s a-”
“I’m on a tight schedule and have to depart immediately.” Before she could finish her last sentence, Cheng Yu cut her off before turning to leave with Chen Hua’s wheelchair in his grip.
...
Upon seeing Cheng Yu’s car as he was being wheeled out by Cheng Yu, Chen Hua couldn’t help but let out a low whistle of surprise. Rich boys really own rich toys!
Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel.
This was one of those cars that rich scumbags liked to retract the roof and cruise about! Luxury cars like these were outside of Chen Hua’s reach as his salary was too low, if he wanted the same car, he’d have to work for 30 years to pay it off!
Having observed Cheng Yu’s signs of wealth, Chen Hua couldn’t help but raise his expectations for the house he was going to be bestowed.
Cheng Yu silently drove on even after noticing Chen Hua dumbly smiling to himself while gently stroking the interior of the car.
…
“We’re here.”
Chen Hua’s eyes fluttered open when he felt Cheng Yu lightly shake his arm while staring at him with a soft gaze. Apparently, he had fallen asleep during the drive. Cheng Yu helped him out of the car and into the wheelchair before offering Chen Hua a handkerchief. “You drool when you sleep.”
Chen Hua snatched the handkerchief out of Cheng Yu’s hand and wiped the drool from his mouth. He then angrily looked around, averting Cheng Yu’s gaze.
Luxury sedans were parked everywhere, urban housing and public amenities such as shopping malls were sprawled around the area. They were in the heart of a city.
“Wow, you live in a rich neighbourhood. Where is this?”
“New World district. (新天地)”
Chen Hua remained silent in thought for a moment. The New World district had one of the highest prices per square foot. It was high enough that new estate projects were frequently on the news!
Entering the elevator lobby of a staggeringly tall apartment complex, Chen Hua curiously asked. “Which floor are we going to?”
“Penthouse.”
Chen Hua remained silent once more. Owning a penthouse apartment was different from a regular apartment in the heartland. It was the complete height of luxury! Housing built in cities would tend to be cramped to fit more people, so if you had a home that was extremely large, it meant that you were stupid rich!
“So what’s your job?” Chen Hua asked ungracefully.
Chen Hua’s words caused Cheng Yu to pause in his steps. “Do you actually have a memory problem? To not know who I am?”
“I actually do have a memory problem.”
“Oh.”
For the sake of one another, the conversation ended there as the awkward silence remained between the two of them until they rode the elevator up to the penthouse
Inside the penthouse, Chen Hua’s mouth was filled with nothing but praise. Having lived a meagre and thrifty life, luxurious decorations such as chandeliers and indoor swimming pools left him in awe. There were even several maids!
“Alright! Thanks for bringing me up here! You can just give me the house keys and let the maids take care of me! Thanks so much for the house and goodbye!” With the help of the maids, Chen Hua made his way to the living room and hogged the entire sofa by lying down with his limbs sprawled across the leather surface.
“...” Cheng Yu silently stared at Chen Hua.
“Why aren’t you going?”Chen Hua fumed as he angrily turned his head from the maids vacuuming the carpet back to Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu slowly took a few steps towards Chen Hua, “I think you’ve got something mixed up, I only said I was giving you a place to sleep. Also, please act properly, you’re a woman and I’m a man.”
“Oh!” Chen Hua immediately snapped shut the gap between his legs when Cheng Yu finished his sentence. He had acted like he was in his own home!
Also, Chen Hua remembered that he was only asking for a place to sleep, so Cheng Yu was not in the wrong. It was Chen Hua himself who had mistakenly thought that Cheng Yu was giving him an apartment! But can I at least give you a slap though? I have all of this pent-up rage now!
“Hmph! Whatever! I’m going to take a bath!” With a maid supporting him on his left and right, Chen Hua was carefully escorted to the bathroom.
