As the young lady of the Bai family, Bai Youran was well taken care of. A doctor came immediately to check on her but could not diagnose the cause of the pain. He could only prescribe her some painkillers.
The drug seemed to help slightly. Her pain was not continuous anymore, but it still came in intervals. She would take some painkillers when the pain came to reduce the symptoms.
But the effect was subtle.
Bai Youran lay on the bed with a pale face after another wave of pain. Ye Yihong came to visit her after hearing the news. She was paying attention to her as she still owed her 30 yuan.
She promised to return to her after she reached home, but it had been five days. Bai Youran did not mention returning her money at all. She did not know when she would get her money back when Bai Youran was sick now.
Thirty yuan might be nothing to Bai Youran, but it was a significant amount to Ye Yihong.
Ye Yihong still pretended to be caring for Bai Youran.
“Youran, what happened? What did the doctor say?”
Bai Youran’s face was pale. She was weak and laying on the bed. The suffering for the past few days made her extremely irritated. Her tone was biting as well.
“How would I know? All the doctors are useless. None of them could tell what went wrong. They could only give me painkillers and nothing else.”
Ye Yihong, “…”
Was… was she suffering from some major illness?
Or some complicated disease?
Could it be cancer?
If Bai Youran died from cancer, how would she get back her 30 yuan?
Ye Yihong looked concerned and said, “That’s absurd. The doctors that came to treat you were the best ones. If they could not tell what’s wrong, who can treat you?”
Bai Youran’s eyes darkened and looked at Ye Yihong instantly, “You say that again?”
Ye Yihong was terrified by her expression and shrugged, “I… I did not say anything. Youran, I’m just concerned for you.”
Bai Youran scoffed and did not bother to talk to her.
Ye Yihong knew she was in a bad mood and did not speak anymore. She looked around Bai Youran’s room in envy.
Bai Youran was staying in an individual room. Her house had two levels, and her room was on the second floor. It was a big room with a wooden floor and rug.
Her bed was huge as well. Her dressing table and wardrobe came in a set. What a beautiful room!
In this generation, every family had more than one child, but space was limited. It was common for a few children to live in one room in bunk beds.
For those big families in the capital, three to four young children who were about 10 years old usually stayed in a room in bunk beds. That was considered a good living condition.
But Bai Youran’s room was almost the same size as her house’s living room.
This was not the first time she had been to Bai Youran’s bedroom. But every time she was here, she envied her so much.
Though she had her own room in her house, it was small. There was almost no space left after placing her bed and her wardrobe.
Ye Yihong smiled and comforted her, “Youran, don’t worry too much. God will bless a good man like you. Nothing will happen to you. Look at how wealthy the Bai family is. They will definitely find better doctors to treat you. Furthermore, you were always very healthy. It’s impossible for you to have some major illnesses all of a sudden.
“I assume that it’s those doctor’s fault. They’re useless. There are so many renowned doctors in the capital. They will definitely be able to treat you!”
