Super Soldier in Campus

Wang Xia naturally knew that Cheng Yu held a bias against her. Actually, just a few minutes ago, Wang Xia's bias against Cheng Yu had been even stronger.

The reason Wang Xia disliked Cheng Yu was simple: the hospital administration frequently complained about Cheng Yu, a patient often delinquent on her medical bills. The floor's head nurse had even subtly hinted that Wang Xia should find ways to make Cheng Yu borrow money to settle her dues quickly. However, Cheng Yu showed no intention of clearing her debt, instead relying on the money her daughter saved each month to pay it off bit by bit, like squeezing toothpaste.

Originally, Wang Xia had assumed that Cheng Yu, being so ill and unable to work, couldn't possibly pay off her medical bills anytime soon. This meant Wang Xia would face reprimands for a long time to come. Resentful, she often made sarcastic remarks to Cheng Yu.

However, just moments ago, a nurse from the inpatient department suddenly brought news: a seemingly ordinary young man had paid all of Cheng Yu's medical bills in full. Not only that, but he had also deposited three million in cash into Cheng Yu's dedicated medical insurance account.

That was three million, not three hundred! When Wang Xia heard this news, she was dumbstruck. Jiangzhou had many wealthy people, but few would casually deposit three million into a medical insurance account. Money in a dedicated medical insurance account could only be used for treatment and couldn't be withdrawn. This meant the young man had casually deposited a sum large enough for Cheng Yu to undergo ten kidney transplant surgeries.

This information meant two things to Wang Xia. First, Cheng Yu was no longer the poor woman constantly indebted for medical fees but had transformed into a VIP customer the hospital should prioritize. Second, the seemingly ordinary man who had casually paid three million for Cheng Yu's treatment was clearly not a simple character. Regardless of whether he was connected to the underworld or from a respectable background, he wasn't someone Wang Xia could afford to offend.

But who exactly was this young man to Cheng Yu? Wang Xia was very curious. When she next saw Cheng Yu, her attitude had become unusually flattering.

"Miss Cheng, you jest... As medical staff, the health of our patients is our utmost concern. Seeing you in such good spirits makes me feel better too..." Wang Xia said to Cheng Yu with a forced smile, despite her awkwardness.

The health of the patients? Cheng Yu smirked dismissively. Their wallets are what they're really concerned about. However, Cheng Yu wasn't worried about Wang Xia having any ulterior motives. Her hospital admission had been arranged by an old comrade of her late husband, Wu Nian, who was a leader in the city's detective squad. Although these nurses often made sarcastic remarks, they couldn't actually do anything to her.

While fussing over Cheng Yu and hanging a new IV drip, Wang Xia couldn't resist her curiosity. "Oh, Miss Cheng," she began, "if you don't mind my asking, who exactly is this young man, Lin Feng? He's quite generous! To casually pay over three million for your treatment," she chuckled.

"Lin Feng was generous? He casually paid over three million for my treatment? Are you sure you're not mistaken?" Cheng Yu knew Wang Xia had something to say, but she never expected it to be this shocking. She was utterly startled.

In my mind, Lin Feng is just a young man who visited without even bringing fruit, someone completely clueless about social etiquette... Cheng Yu thought. But Wang Xia suddenly says he paid over three million in medical fees for me? Is this some kind of joke?

"Oh... Miss Cheng, we're old acquaintances, you don't need to pretend anymore..." Seeing Cheng Yu's feigned surprise, Wang Xia couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. Cheng Yu, I know you're thrilled about your sudden good fortune, but isn't this act a bit over the top?!

"Who's pretending?!" Stunned by the shocking news, Cheng Yu's voice trembled with panic. "What exactly is going on? Tell me clearly!"

"You really don't know?" Wang Xia was taken aback and spoke with a hint of anxiety, "It was that young man, Lin Feng, who visited you. He just settled all your outstanding medical bills at the counter and deposited three million in cash into your account. He also instructed Dr. Liu to move you to a special care ward this afternoon. And he said that as long as our hospital has a suitable kidney donor, regardless of the cost, we must prioritize arranging a kidney transplant surgery for you... You really didn't know about this?"

If I had known, I wouldn't have let him leave so easily! Cheng Yu was both annoyed and helpless, glaring at Wang Xia. She had thought Lin Feng was the one ignorant of social graces, but who would have guessed he was actually here to pay her medical bills!

Thinking about it, Lin Feng's relationship with Wu Mei must be quite serious now... As for Lin Feng's family background, Cheng Yu wasn't particularly concerned. What truly upset her was that she had just driven away Wu Mei's future husband! She hadn't even let him sit for a moment, much less asked for his phone number.

No, this was too rude! If Wu Mei finds out about this, she'll never forgive me!

Cheng Yu clenched her teeth, pulled the needle Wang Xia had just inserted from her arm, and stood up. With somewhat unsteady steps, she hurried out to chase after him.

"Huh?! Miss Cheng, what are you doing? Don't be reckless!" Seeing the IV needles still dripping beside the bed, Wang Xia was shocked and hurried after her. Why did I have to run my mouth off and provoke this woman? Now I'm in big trouble! she thought, full of regret.

Given Cheng Yu's unsteady steps, how could she possibly catch up to Lin Feng, who had long since departed? She struggled to the stairwell, her head spinning. Finally, leaning against the wall and clutching her side, she gave a helpless, bitter smile.

It seems the only thing to do is explain it all to Wu Mei when I see her later... Cheng Yu thought helplessly.

「 」

At this moment, Lin Feng, who had already left, was in his Passat, following a green taxi. The reason he had left so hastily wasn't that he was embarrassed by Cheng Yu's dismissal, nor was he deliberately avoiding saying goodbye to her.

Lin Feng had left to chase Wu Lian, the village chief of Wu Family Village, who had tried to force Cheng Yu to sign a contract.

I wonder what kind of backing the developer who wants to develop Wu Family Village has... Lin Feng thought, driving his car while straining his ears for any sounds from the taxi ahead.

In the taxi ahead, Wu Lian was on the phone. Both cars were driving slowly, less than ten meters apart. The taxi's window was half open. Despite the sound of the wind, Lin Feng's sharp hearing allowed him to faintly make out Wu Lian's words.

"Director Fan, I'm sorry, things went south today... Yes, that old woman refused to sign... I was going to have someone forge her signature, but she accidentally tore up the check... No, no... Director Fan, even if you gave me ten times the nerve, I wouldn't dare do something like that! The old woman really tore the check... Huh? Forced demolition?"

At this point, Wu Lian, looking astonished, lowered his phone. Apparently, the person on the other end had hung up.
