Volume 2, No More Than Thirty Chapter 70 Wang Manni is sick
Misia store, first floor lobby.
"Mr. Yuan, here is your shopping receipt, which can be exchanged for points. There is also a bank card. Please keep it!"
Taking his bank card and shopping receipt from Wang Manni, Yuan Xudong put the bank card into his wallet, then stuffed the shopping receipt into her hand and said with a smile:
"Thank you for your help today . Here's the shopping receipt for you. If you need anything, please contact me on WeChat. Bye!"
Looking at the shopping receipt in her hand, Wang Manni was stunned for a moment. When she came to her senses, she saw Yuan Xudong leading Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun out of the Misia store. She hurriedly chased after them, stopped Yuan Xudong, stuffed the shopping receipt into his hands and said:
"Mr. Yuan, I can't accept your shopping receipt, thank you!"
After that, she stepped back a few steps, looked at Yuan Xudong and the other two, bowed and smiled:
"Mr. Yuan, Ms. Zhu, Ms. Jiang, welcome to visit us next time. Bye!"
"Bye-Bye!"
After Yuan Xudong led Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun away, Nancy and a group of colleagues gathered around and applauded to congratulate Wang Manni:
"Nini, you are amazing. You have worked harder than others every day to get a big order of nearly four million. Now I have given you all the money. Are you wearing any lucky charm?"
"There's no such thing as a lucky charm. I just changed my lipstick."
Rolling her eyes at Nancy, Wang Manni patted her chest with one hand, supported her waist with the other, frowned and smiled:
"You don't know how nervous I was. I didn't even dare to drink a sip of water. I was afraid to go to the toilet. Now I'm fine. I've signed such a big order. Today is really my lucky day to meet a big client like Mr. Yuan!"
"You're the only one who doesn't drink water and doesn't go to the toilet. Who doesn't?"
Seeing that everyone was surrounding Wang Manni, Linda couldn't help but sneer. Then, as if she remembered something, she hurried to the VIP room. Nancy glanced at her and said with disdain:
"She just knows how to be jealous of others and steal their business. Mr. Yuan has already left, why is she still going to the VIP room?"
The speaker may not mean anything, but the listener may take it seriously. Wang Manni's face changed slightly. She didn't care about the pain in her waist. She hurried to the VIP room. Sure enough, she saw Linda coming out with the suit that Yuan Xudong had changed out of. She quickly stopped Linda and said,
"Linda, this is Mr. Yuan's suit. I want it cleaned and returned. Just give it to me!"
"It's okay. I am also responsible for this matter. I'll wash it myself. I'll hand it over to Mr. Yuan when he comes next time!"
Seeing the two arguing again, the deputy store manager walked over, looked at Linda and advised:
"Linda, give it to Nini. You don't have Mr. Yuan's WeChat. We are all colleagues. Don't hurt the relationship!"
Hearing the deputy store manager support Wang Manni, Linda had to let go, returned the suit to her and said with a smile:
"I think Manny seems to be a little uncomfortable, and I want to help her. Since Manny doesn't want to, forget it!"
"Thank you, Linda!"
Wang Manni took the suit and thanked him with a fake smile, but her face became paler. Seeing her sick appearance, the deputy store manager frowned and said:
"Nini, why do you look so bad? Give the clothes to Linda and go to the hospital for a check-up!"
"No need, assistant manager, I just have an old backache. It will be gone in a while, it's nothing serious!"
"Then you should be careful. If there is anything, tell me and I will adjust your shift."
"I see, thank you, Deputy Shopkeeper!"
With a slight thank you, Wang Manni took Yuan Xudong's suit to the counter and prepared to pack it. Seeing that she was having difficulty walking, Nancy hurried over to help her and said:
"Nini, let me take you to the hospital. You look so scary!"
"No, it's been hurting for several days, it will be gone in a while!"
Shaking her head slightly, Wang Manni pressed her waist hard, frowned, and handed the suit in her hand to Nancy, saying weakly:
"Nancy, please help me pack Mr. Yuan's suit. I'm afraid it will get dirty."
"okay!"
Taking the suit from Wang Manni, Nancy packed it up while looking at Wang Manni and smiled:
"Nini, Mr. Yuan is really good to you. Such a nice dress was soiled by you and Linda, but he was not angry at all and even signed such a big order with you. To be honest, do you feel a sense of excitement?"
Rolling her eyes at Nancy, Wang Manni teased her:
"He already has a girlfriend, and he asked me if I felt a crush on him. I think it's you, little girl, who is attracted to him."
"so what?"
Nancy returned the packed suit to Wang Manni and asked curiously:
"Honestly, if Mr. Yuan pursues you, would you agree to it?"
After taking a look at Nancy, Wang Manni said seriously:
"I'm almost thirty. If Mr. Yuan really pursues me and is willing to marry me, do you think I will refuse?"
After that, without waiting for Nancy's response, she said with a self-deprecating look:
"You don't know how conflicted I was when Mr. Yuan stuffed the shopping receipt into my hand. Nearly four million points can be exchanged for a gift certificate worth two hundred thousand, which is more than my annual salary, and he gave it to me without blinking an eye. If he is willing to give me a piece of high-end jewelry, I will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with him to get the marriage certificate tomorrow!"
Looking at Wang Manni's face full of longing, Nancy burst out laughing and teased her:
"Nini, I think you are attracted to someone, but Mr. Yuan already has a girlfriend who is so pretty. He definitely won't fall for us salespeople. You should just find an ordinary boyfriend."
"No, I can't do that. I've been waiting for so many years. I can't let myself down like this. I hope my future boyfriend will be rich, gentle and considerate to me, and handsome!"
"Isn't that Mr. Yuan?"
"screw you!"
…
Night falls and the lights come on.
After Wang Manni promised to treat everyone to a dinner as soon as she got her salary, her colleagues who had been making trouble let her go. She took the subway home alone, enduring the pain in her waist. She put down her suit and bag and looked at the empty rental house. Before she could rest for a while, her cell phone rang.
Pressing the answer button, Wang Manni endured the pain in her waist and smiled:
"mom!"
"Nini, are you home?"
"Just got back, what's up?"
"Why do I hear you speak so weakly?"
"It's okay. I'm a little tired today. I'll be fine after a rest!"
"Every time I call you, you say it's okay. Don't take everything on yourself. Do you hear me?"
"I heard you, Mom. If you have something to say, tell me now. I want to rest for a while!"
"There are two things I want to discuss with you. Over the years, you have sent back a lot of money, and your father and I have saved it. We added it up and added some more, and it totaled 100,000 yuan. Your father and I want to..."
"Don't I tell you every month not to save? It's only 2,000 yuan a month, just for your pocket money, why don't you listen?"
"We have nowhere to spend money. You are alone in Shanghai, and there are many places to spend money. Any savings are good."
"The expenses here are based on earnings, not savings. I can make ends meet if I do a few more orders a month. If you guys add a dish to your three meals a day, I'll feel comfortable, but you can't make me feel at ease."
"Okay, okay, if you keep saving, you'll end up with a lot of money, right? You can do great things with it, right?"
"What's the big deal?"
"We want to use this money to ask someone to find you a good job when you come back!"
"When did I say I was going home?"
"Three years ago, you said that when you were 30, you would either buy a house in Shanghai or marry someone who had a house. If you didn't have either of those, you would go home.
In a few months you will be thirty. I think neither of the two wishes you made will come true. Nini, just accept your fate, go home, find a job, find a boyfriend, get married, and live a down-to-earth life. How nice it would be!
You have to stay in that big city, with your monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan, and you have to pay rent, give us living expenses, and feed yourself. How much money can you save throughout the year?"
"I won't go back. I'd rather die in Shanghai. Tell me something else. I want to rest."
"Nini, I found a blind date for you. His family lives in the next town. He's quite handsome. The neighbors all praise him for being steady and reliable. He's also a few years younger than you. By the way, he also works in Shanghai. I asked his sister for his WeChat and mobile number. How about you two meet?"
"Mom, you are my biological mother, can you be more reliable? You introduced me to so many blind dates, but none of them are reliable. I won't go!"
"Nini, listen to me, this time it must be reliable. I have found out everything and asked a lot of people. Everyone says that the boy is good and an honest child. Nini, are you listening?"
…
In Zhu Suosuo's rental house, a cell phone rang. Looking at the unfamiliar caller ID, Yuan Xudong frowned slightly and pressed the answer button.
"I am!"
"Okay, I know!"
"Don't worry, I'll be there soon!"
"You're welcome, it's my honor!"
After hanging up the phone, seeing Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun looking at him, Yuan Xudong said calmly:
"Suosuo, Nansun, you should go to bed early. A friend of mine is sick and in the hospital. Her mother isn't around, so let me go over and take a look."
"Nan Sun and I will go with you."
"No, I may have to stay in the hospital to take care of her. You still have to go to work tomorrow. Nansun is in a bad mood again. You can talk to her and rest early."
"Okay, it's so late, drive safely, see you tomorrow!"
"See you tomorrow!"
While marking the unknown caller as Wang's mother, he drove to the First People's Hospital according to the address given by the other party. Unexpectedly, Wang Manni, who was fine during the day, was admitted to the emergency room at night. She had no relatives in Shanghai, and Wang's mother didn't know the phone numbers of her colleagues or friends, so she could only trouble herself, the blind date.
According to Wang's mother, she and her mother reached a united front on the blind date, but before they had time to notify the two young people to meet, Wang Manni fell ill and was hospitalized. She had no choice but to ask her, the blind date partner who had only seen her photo, to go to the hospital to take care of Wang Manni. She and her husband will rush to Shanghai tomorrow to take care of their daughter personally.
About thirty minutes later, Yuan Xudong rushed to the emergency room of the First People's Hospital. Under the guidance of two nurses on duty, he walked into the ward where Wang Manni was, an ordinary three-patient ward. Wang Manni was lying on her side on the middle bed.
As he approached, he saw Wang Manni's pale face , biting her lips and trembling slightly, closing her eyes and crying secretly, with tears dripping from the corners of her eyes onto the pillow. It was obviously her weakest moment. Yuan Xudong half squatted down, wiped away her tears, and combed her long hair, saying in a gentle voice:
"Nini, it's okay, just get some sleep."
When Yuan Xudong wiped her tears, she had already opened her eyes. Looking at the gentle and considerate Yuan Xudong, and hearing his caring words, Wang Manni reached out to wipe her tears and cried even harder:
"Mr. Yuan, why are you here?"
After saying that, she was about to struggle to sit up. Yuan Xudong quickly held her down and let her lie back on the bed. He also helped her tidy up the quilt and gently covered her exposed shoulders and arms. After doing this, he squatted in front of Wang Manni, helped her tidy up her temples and explained:
"Your mother called me and said they will come over tomorrow. I will take care of you here for one night."
Hearing Yuan Xudong say this, Wang Manni slightly widened her eyes and said in disbelief:
"Mr. Yuan, are you the blind date my mother was talking about?"
Nodding slightly, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"I just found out about it, too. I called my family a few times before, but I didn't ask for specific details about the blind date. I didn't expect it to be you. If I had known earlier, I would have definitely gone to see you as soon as possible."
Thinking that Yuan Xudong was complimenting her, Wang Manni burst into laughter and said:
"You didn't know me before. If you had known my name, you wouldn't have come to me. Besides, you already have a girlfriend, why are you still going on a blind date?"
This question was difficult to answer, so Yuan Xudong decided to be cautious. He smiled and changed the subject:
"Don't blind dates always have photos? You're so beautiful, I'll definitely run over to see you. Besides, we're from the same hometown, and meeting in Shanghai is a kind of fate in itself, don't you think?"
When she heard Yuan Xudong praising her beauty, and thought about how sick she was now and how she hadn't put on any makeup, she quickly hid her head under the quilt and said in a muffled voice:
"Do I look ugly now?"
Just as Yuan Xudong was about to tell some white lies, the nurse on rounds came in. Seeing Yuan Xudong accompanying Wang Manni, she spoke directly:
"Are you a relative of the patient?"
Seeing Yuan Xudong nod slightly, she glanced at Wang Manni who was hiding under the quilt and said:
"The patient has acute nephritis, and the indicators are mild. He can go home after the condition is controlled with medication. He can take a week off and rest. If there are no problems, he can just take some medicine.
In the future, you should take care of your health, drink more water, and don't have the habit of holding your urine. By the way, please go and pay the fee. The patient was brought here by 120 after he was unconscious, and the fee has not been paid yet."
"I see, thank you, nurse!"
