Chapter 216 - 229: She Can Never Repay It in This Lifetime
"Jiajia, pinch Mom, is Mom dreaming?"
An Sijia also felt like she was dreaming; she had thought that man was a pauper. How could he pull out twenty million just like that? What was it about An Ran that made even the heavens favor her so much?
"Mom, how could you really sign that agreement?" An Sijia’s eyes were red with jealousy. Why wasn’t she the adopted child? Why didn’t anyone pay twenty million to buy her? Especially such a handsome man.
Sun Xuehui was amused by An Sijia’s words and lightly tapped her head. "Silly girl, twenty million! Why wouldn’t I sign? Do you think if An Ran had really accompanied President Liu last night, she would still have anything to do with the An Family? An Ran leaving the An Family is only a matter of time. Now that such a great opportunity has fallen from the sky, why shouldn’t I take it?"
She certainly knew twenty million was a lot, but if An Ran truly left the An Family, she couldn’t bear to watch her be destroyed nor personally hand her over to those old men. She just couldn’t let An Ran off that easily. "But how are we going to explain this to Dad?"
"Don’t worry about your Dad, I’ll handle him." Sun Xuehui said as she lowered her head to check her phone. Sure enough, the message for the one million deposit had already arrived.
Mu Xingfeng returned to the hospital and saw Chen Yankun standing at the entrance of the ward from a distance. When Chen Yankun spotted him, he pointed inside with his chin. Inside, the little girl had already awakened. She was sitting on the hospital bed, hugging her knees and gazing out the window. Her long black hair spilled over her shoulders, making her appear even more delicate, and that forlorn figure evoked a sense of pity.
Mu Xingfeng walked over and gently touched her long hair.
An Ran turned her head, her eyes calm without a trace of ripple.
"Instructor Mu," she softly called out.
She could vaguely remember the events of last night. In her most helpless moment, it was again Mu Xingfeng who saved her.
