In her previous life, she had been drinking Ye Muxue’s poisonous chicken soup laced with drugs that harmed her voice. So, the recovery of her loss of voice was completely beyond hope.
But now, she had just become mute not long ago. With the help of medicine and acupuncture therapy, she should be able to recover her voice between seven days to a month.
Ye Caitang rushed to the school infirmary in a hurry. Before she could borrow Chinese herbs from the kind-looking old man…
She suddenly realized that Meng Xiyao and Ye Muxue were holding hands intimately as they walked into the infirmary.
Wasn’t it Ye Muxue’s fangirls who beat MengXiyao up so badly last time?
Why wasn’t she angry at Ye Muxue at all and was so intimate with her?
Just as Ye Caitang had this doubt in her mind, she suddenly heard Meng Xiyao say to Ye Muxue gratefully,
“Muxue, thank you so much. If you hadn’t paid for my father’s medical expenses, my father might have died.”
“Also, thank you for paying for my medical bills.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll work hard to earn money and return all the money I owe you.”
“Xiyao, I’m going to get angry if you keep talking to me like that.”
Ye Muxue said sincerely.
“We’re good friends. There’s no need to thank each other.”
“This money might be a lot to you, but it’s just a small sum to me. You don’t have to take it to heart, let alone talk about returning the money.”
With that, Ye Muxue took out a wad of cash from her bag and stuffed it into Meng Xiyao’s hands.
“Here, this is my pocket money for today. I don’t need it anyway. Take it and buy more nutritional supplements for your father, and some delicious food and beautiful clothes for yourself.”
Ye Caitang looked at Ye Muxue’s magnanimity and suddenly clenched her fists tightly. She clenched her fists so hard that they trembled slightly.
She finally knew how Ye Muxue managed to gain Meng Xiyao’s favor. So it was money.
Indeed, this society was a place where it was difficult to make a move without money.
Offering money and pretending to be generous by saying some noble words could indeed easily win anyone’s favor.
The funny thing was that as the only biological daughter under Ye Nancheng’s name, her annual pocket money was not even as much as Ye Muxue’s daily pocket money.
Moreover, Ye Nancheng could only be considered a middle-class commoner. After marrying her mother—who had a big family business—he became a member of a second-tier wealthy family with the help of her mother and grandfather.
However, Ye Nancheng was not grateful to her mother at all. He even imprisoned her sick mother in a psychiatric hospital.
The conversation between Meng Xiyao and Ye Muxue continued.
“Thank you, Muxue. But there’s really no need. You’ve already given me a lot.” Meng Xiyao pushed the money to Ye Muxue.
“Our familv’s situation has stabilized a lot. We are not in need of so much money anymore.”
“But you and your father haven’t fully recovered yet. You need to buy more nutritional supplements and eat something good.”
Ye Muxue pushed the money back to Meng Xiyao and said especially considerately,
“Also, the clothes on you and your father are so worn-out. It’s time to get some new clothes.”
Meng Xiyao was very principled and insisted on returning the money to Ye Muxue.
“There’s really no need. We still have enough money.”
“Alright then. If you need money in the future, let me know.”
Ye Muxue saw that Meng Xiyao was insistent. Seeing that her goal of earning Meng Xiyao’s trust and love had been achieved, she picked up the money without any hesitation and stuffed it back into her pocket.
Ye Caitang suddenly rushed up to Ye Muxue…
