Car-hailing Driver: Rewards from Complaints
Chapter 395 - 197: Coming Back from the United States Just to Mock a Patient—That’s Truly Immoral (Part 2)
At that moment, Chen Chunlan’s phone rang.
She stared at the familiar yet strange name, momentarily stunned.
"Who’s calling, why don’t you answer? Need me to step out?" Yang Chen asked.
Chen Chunlan quickly replied, "No, no... It’s... It’s a college classmate calling, I don’t really want to pick up."
Quickly, the phone rang again.
Chen Chunlan exhaled deeply and answered the call.
Chen Chunlan: "Zhang Xiaoyi, I didn’t answer, why are you still calling?"
Zhang Xiaoyi: "Oh, Xiaolan, I heard you got cancer? Oh dear, that’s so pitiful, how could fate be so cruel."
Chen Chunlan: "Stop with the pity, I’m already cured. What’s up, speak quickly or I’ll hang up!"
Zhang Xiaoyi: "Xiaolan, we’re sisters, right? We haven’t seen each other in over twenty years. I heard you have cancer, I immediately came back from the United States to see you, no need to be so harsh with me, right?"
Chen Chunlan: "You came back from the United States?"
Zhang Xiaoyi: "Yeah! I came back with Li Qiang. No matter what, you two had an unforgettable past. He was really worried when he heard about your cancer, handled all his U.S. assets and came back. *Sigh*... I really don’t know who’s more important to him."
Chen Chunlan: "Haha... Thanks for your kindness, not visiting me would be the best help. I’m handling my discharge now, hanging up!"
Zhang Xiaoyi: "Huh? Handling your discharge? Not treating anymore? Oops... You see... I didn’t know your illness was this serious. Had I known, I would have asked Li Qiang to come back earlier to see you. Sis, hang in there, we’re coming tomorrow."
Chen Chunlan: "You crazy! Get lost as far as you can!"
After saying that, she hung up the phone.
Yang Chen asked, "Someone causing trouble?"
Chen Chunlan sighed and briefly told Yang Chen about the past.
Chen Chunlan and Zhang Xiaoyi were college roommates and usually got along very well.
Chen Chunlan’s first love was Li Qiang; they were considered a golden couple in school back then.
But Chen Chunlan didn’t know Zhang Xiaoyi had eyes for Li Qiang all along, often taking her out with Li Qiang.
During junior year, on Chen Chunlan’s birthday, she got drunk, and Zhang Xiaoyi did that sort of thing with Li Qiang right beside her.
When Chen Chunlan sobered up, she found used condoms while cleaning up and realized what her closest people did next to her while she was drunk and asleep.
Chen Chunlan didn’t hesitate to break up with Li Qiang, and the pair ended up together.
Later, Li Qiang’s parents immigrated to the United States, and he took Zhang Xiaoyi with him.
In the past twenty-odd years, the three barely had any direct contact, only heard about each other’s circumstances through classmates or social media.
Now that Li Qiang and Zhang Xiaoyi handled their assets and came back from the United States, with Zhang Xiaoyi’s mindset, she definitely wanted to show off in front of Chen Chunlan.
Yang Chen nodded, roughly understanding the situation.
According to Chen Chunlan, Li Qiang and Zhang Xiaoyi were a pair of horrible people.
If they came properly to visit Chen Chunlan, Yang Chen wouldn’t interfere.
After all, past feelings were between the three, and others couldn’t really comment.
If they dared to ridicule Chen Chunlan, Yang Chen definitely wouldn’t let them off easy.
"If they want to see you, just let them come; otherwise, it seems like you’re avoiding them. If they come properly to see you, we’ll warmly welcome them. If they dare have any outrageous ideas, as long as you nod, I’ll make them regret it. Be confident, now we don’t need to fear anyone. Alright?" Yang Chen reassured.
Chen Chunlan smiled slightly, feeling relieved and said, "Alright, alright, the greatest achievement in this teacher’s life is having a student like you. Haha... Help me handle the discharge papers, I want to leave here."
Yang Chen nodded and went out to handle Chen Chunlan’s discharge procedures.
To treat her illness, Chen Chunlan had already sold her house in Su City.
Yang Chen previously said he’d let her live in the old house, so he’ll take her there later.
Yang Chen was in line for the procedures when suddenly a voice yelled angrily from nearby.
"It’s him!"
Everyone in line turned to look, including Yang Chen.
The female passenger demanding Yang Chen take responsibility marched over with a girl who looked a lot like Reba.
Yang Chen was helpless; how come they’re sticking to him like glue?
The pair walked up to Yang Chen, and the female passenger pointed at Yang Chen and said, "Xiaxia, he’s the Bibi driver who made me faint and cost me over 5000 bucks."
Yang Chen quickly corrected, "Miss, let’s talk sensibly, huh? Your own health issues can’t be blamed on me, can they? The police already said your health problems weren’t my fault, and yet you want to extort me?"
The female passenger still clung to her old excuse, "Even if it’s my health issue, but if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t need a check-up here. What costs a few hundred at other hospitals here costs over five thousand. I spent so much wasted money!"
The girl named Xiaxia quickly intervened, "Xiaoqin, just stop. Since it’s your own issue, don’t blame others. I think you should be grateful instead; it was because you argued and fainted that you discovered the health issue. Alright, I’ll cover your medical expenses, stop being mad. Did you leave a bad review for him? Hurry and remove it."
