Chapter 1109: Medical Fees

Looking at the tourists passing by, as well the cops on the streets… Xiaoke had quite the headache. She needed this money for medical fees, she couldn’t let Nurse Wang get blamed!

She looked at the tourists walking by, and she tried her hardest to look for a target. The police here didn’t have too many men, and she had her chances.

Soon after, she found something- a man who was exiting the train station!

He was a tall young man, the type that walked out of the big mountains, wearing really old and rugged clothes, a blue singlet and black shorts. He was as countryside as you got- and these people were the type who entered the city for the first time, were not experienced in social settings. They were easier targets!

Xiaoke had thought of stealing money off of the fat rich bosses, but these were a lot more careful, and, in a place like this, she’d easily attract the police’s attention. She had to target this easy looking countryside man!

But she’d never stolen from a good person before, so while this man was an easy target, this didn’t adhere to her codes! She followed behind him, hesitating- she didn’t know if she should make her move!

No matter what, she needed to get the money today- she’d already caused enough trouble to Nurse Wang, and if she didn’t pay up, the hospital would blame the nurse- She didn’t want that!

But making a move on this young man really hurt her! He looked like an honest man, a kind man- it was a very guilty thing for her to be doing this!

But yet, without realizing, Xiaoke had been following the man for a long time now, still hesitating!

“Why are you following me?” Xiaoke hadn’t made a move yet, but the young man turned around to look at her, confused!

Er Goudan was quite troubled- what was this pretty girl doing, trailing her? He had realized from the start when she started tailing him, but because she was a pretty girl, he assumed that she wasn’t a bad guy. He just thought that the person was just walking the same way!

But he intentionally changed his direction, realizing that the girl was still following!

Goudan was a little straightforward, but he was someone who grew up with Lin Yi- he was no normal human. In the forests, there were plenty of beasts that were good at hiding their presence, all failing to conceal themselves from Goudan’s senses, let alone a You Xiaoke!

Goudan turning his head back put Xiaoke in a shock! Never would she have imagined that the man would realize she was tailing him, and she didn’t know what to say! She was already feeling guilty enough already! “It’s nothing… It’s nothing…”

Goudan frowned, his eyes a little bright, “Girlie, is there anything you need? If you do, just say it, don’t dilly dally like a girl!”

“Pfft-~” Xiaoke almost laughed at the words- she was a girl in the first plae, wasn’t she?

“What are you laughing about? Just what business do you have with me?” Goudan didn’t know why this weird girl was laughing.

For some reason, Xiaoke felt that this guy was a really nice person. She changed her mind- she wouldn’t steal from him anymore.

“I was following you… to ask you to lend me some money!” Xiaoke took back her smile and put on a serious face.

Xiaoke was sure that this man was a nice man, and she couldn’t steal anymore. Yes, she wanted to borrow the money- and she would return it!

“Borrow money? What do you need it for? Goudan asked.

“There’s a kid at my house who got appendictis, we don’t have money for operation, so I wanted to borrow some as an emergency…” Xiaoke didn’t lie.

“Appendictis? Surgery? That’s a big deal!” Goudan said- the girl’s face didn’t look like she was lying. “How much do you need to borrow?”

“How… How much do you have?” Xiaoke didn’t think that he’d actually borrow her money- she felt quite surprised!

Goudan was a nice person, and while Old Lin did warn him that there were a lot of scammers out ehre, Goudan felt that this girlie in front of him wasn’t one. She spoke with honesty, so it was probably real! He really wanted to help!

In Weststar Village, lending money to each other in times of emergency was a very normal thing to do- he always lent money to the villagers after all, so he treated Xiaoke the same way.

“I’ve got a thousand nine hundred something!” Goudan bought some bread on the train- he didn’t spend much.

“That’s about enough!” Xiaoke said after calculating it. It should be enough for the surgery.

Goudan didn’t say anyhing else- he took out a packet and gave it to Xiaoke. “Here, count it!”

“No need to count it! Thank you, I’ll give this back as soon as possible!” Xiaoke said happily as she received the package, waving her hand, “I’ll be going then!”

“Yes, hurry! A life is at stake!” Goudan nodded.

Seeing Xiaoke’s figure disappear, Goudan suddenly remembered something important!

Boss Lin Yi’s address was on that package, with the note Grandpa Lin wrote!

“Huh? Wait up!” Goudan started panicking a little- this was the only way he could find Boss Lin Yi- where else was he supposed to go without the address?

But Xiaoke was long gone!

Goudan slapped his head and sat down on a long bench, feeling helpless.

He’d lost contact with Lin Yi, and so he could only sit here and wait for Xiaoke to return the money and address to him!

Xiaoke may be a thief, but she knew to repay kindness with gratiude- she knew that Goudan was a good man, and so she would make sure to return this money as soon as possible! Yet, just after she reached the hospital did she realize that she didn’t even ask for a contact, she didn’t even know his name!

How was she supposed to return this money then? She wasn’t the type to break a promise, and the guy had trusted her so completely, she really couldn’t betray that kindness!
