Chapter 275: Taking Care of Wen Ye

Translator: _Min_ |

As Gu Dai stepped out of the room, she was greeted by the raucous noise from the neighboring ward.

Her expression cooling, she quickened her pace and pushed open the door, only to find Wen Ye, a chubby and wide figure, inside.

Wen Ye, with a stern face, bellowed in a gruff voice, “I am this child’s father. I said no treatment for her, and who are you to put this waste of money in a luxury ward? Are you paying for it?”

Chu Min, clenching his fists to contain his rage, replied, “We have already paid for Gu Yin’s medical expenses. There’s no need for your contribution. Please leave now and avoid disturbing the patient’s rest.”

Wen Ye’s eyes lit up with greed. He quickly approached the bed, reaching to grab Gu Yin.

Chu Min intercepted Wen Ye’s hand, forcefully pushing him to the ground, and asked coldly, “What are you trying to do?”

Wen Ye hadn’t expected to fall so easily with just a push. Feeling humiliated, his face burned with both embarrassment and pain.

He retorted, “I’m taking her to get a refund. She was just hit a few times, no need to make such a fuss and stay in a big hospital. Can’t a small clinic nearby handle it?”

In his mind, Wen Ye fantasized about using the money refunded from the luxury ward for alcohol and gambling, potentially earning a fortune.

As Wen Ye raised his fist and stepped towards Chu Min, he was swiftly kicked to the ground with a loud thud.

He lay there, his face twisted in pain and disbelief, shocked that he, a burly man, was overpowered by two people, including a woman.

Gu Dai stood over Wen Ye, her voice cold as ice, “I know what you’re thinking, but don’t bother. I won’t let your plans come to fruition.”

Wen Ye’s heart quivered. As he lifted his eyes and saw Gu Dai’s face, a flicker of familiarity stirred within him.

Wen Ye accused, “Gu Dai, how dare you attack your uncle. You have no respect for your elders!”

Their commotion attracted attention, and bystanders began to criticize Gu Dai. “Even if an elder is wrong, as a younger person, you should tolerate it. How can you hit him?”

“Do you know how hard it is to be an older generation?”

“With such lack of respect, you mustn’t have achieved much.”

Chu Min’s face darkened with anger.

He knew Gu Dai respected elders and had accomplished much at a young age. These accusations were far from the truth.

As Chu Min was about to defend Gu Dai, she stopped him.

Looking down at Wen Ye, Gu Dai stated, “I respect elders, but not every elder deserves respect. For example, someone like you who gets drunk and beats his own daughter, I will never respect.”

Gu Yin, weak and frail, slowly opened her eyes, coughing weakly.

The crowd’s attention shifted to her. They asked excitedly, “Child, how does your father treat you usually?”

Gu Yin, trembling and tearful, especially upon seeing Wen Ye, was evidently scared.

Gu Dai kicked Wen Ye repeatedly, ensuring he couldn’t stand up, then sat beside Gu Yin, holding her close and soothing her, “Yinyin, don’t be afraid. I’m here, and I won’t let him hurt you.”

Relieved to see Gu Dai, Gu Yin nodded weakly and called out, “Cousin…”

Gu Yin, buried in Gu Dai’s embrace, confessed, “Cousin, as soon as I got home, Dad took all my money for alcohol. When he saw the phone you gave me, he tried to take it. When I refused, he kept hitting me, even on my head…”

Gu Dai held Gu Yin tighter, reassuring her, “I will take care of him. Don’t cry; crying isn’t good for your recovery.”

Gu Yin apologized for not being able to protect the phone Gu Dai had given her.

Gu Dai shook her head, “It’s okay, Yinyin. Don’t blame yourself. I’ll get you another one.”

Witnessing this scene, the onlookers realized their mistake and felt guilty for misunderstanding Gu Dai. They were filled with sympathy for Gu Yin and disdain for Wen Ye, who had misled them into their initial judgment. Their sympathy for Gu Yin matched their dislike for Wen Ye..
