Luo Qi didn’t wish to bother Ye Ranran. Throughout their journey together, she had already helped her immensely. Without Ye Ranran, she wouldn’t have made it this far.
But apart from Ye Ranran, she really didn’t know who else she could turn to for help.
Ah Chuan? Luo Qi dared not even think of it.
"What did you say?" Ye Ranran doubted if she had heard wrong.
How could that sensible young boy, who solely desired to earn money to support his sister, be lying in the operating room now?
"Ranran, I beg you, can you help me?" Luo Qi pleaded.
She was truly desperate, if there had been any other way, she absolutely wouldn’t have reached out to her.
"Don’t worry, I’ll handle it." With her uninjured left hand, Ye Ranran gently embraced Luo Qi.
Through Luo Qi, Ye Ranran saw her former self—lonely and rootless like a wandering duckweed, ceaselessly drifting with no place to anchor.
It was Jun Mochan who had given her a home, who had held up a sky for her.
But now, her sky had collapsed. However, she was already capable of becoming someone else’s sky.
"Thank you, Ranran." Luo Qi’s tears soaked Ye Ranran’s clothes.
Considering her own inconvenient state, Ye Ranran sighed: "Let go of me first, I’ll go get you the money."
Luo Qi immediately released her, wiping her tears: "I’m sorry, I always end up crying in front of you."
"It’s okay, I’ve gotten used to it." Ye Ranran extended her left hand: "Help me up."
Luo Qi finally noticed something was off with Ye Ranran. Seeing her face pale as paper, Luo Qi reached out with trembling hands and lightly touched it.
Indeed, it was as cold as the snow outside.
"Ranran, what... " What had she been through again? Why was she in such a state once more?
"Did I hurt you just now? Where do you feel uncomfortable? Are you okay?" Luo Qi asked anxiously.
Knowing Luo Qi was genuinely worried about her, Ye Ranran gave her a comforting smile: "I’m fine, it’s just the cold, don’t worry. Help me up quickly so I can transfer the money for you."
"How about I visit another day." Luo Qi really didn’t want to bother Ye Ranran further.
Now she understood why the housekeeper and One had stood in her way when she arrived.
She was practically demanding Ye Ranran’s life.
The more Luo Qi thought about it, the more uneasy she became.
"You’re in such a hurry, it shows that you can’t wait, and indeed, this matter cannot wait. Be at ease, I’m fine, aren’t I? It’s just transferring some money."
All her money was in the card given to her by Jun Mochan. She had no other cards and the only remaining account belonged to the company.
But that was for company operations, even she, couldn’t use it.
Neither did she have the habit of hoarding cash at home.
Luo Qi hesitantly extended her hand, her right hand, wrapping around Ye Ranran’s waist. With a little help, Ye Ranran finally managed to stand up.
All of Ye Ranran’s weight fell onto Luo Qi, yet Luo Qi didn’t feel any significant pressure.
She suddenly realized, Ye Ranran was incredibly thin.
"Ranran, you’re so thin." Luo Qi touched her waist, not able to feel any flesh.
"It’s an illusion." Ye Ranran smiled: "Could you help me turn around? I need to go to the study now."
Luo Qi helped Ye Ranran, walking step by step forward.
Ye Ranran didn’t speak up, hence in front of outsiders, One didn’t assist her either.
Once in the study, Ye Ranran switched on the computer. She slightly turned her body, using her left hand to control the mouse and log into her online banking.
"Ranran, your right hand..." Luo Qi extended her hand, wanting to touch it, yet didn’t dare to.
