344 You’re So Popular
He Jiong had had a hard time these past few days.
A girl who claimed to be Du Keke’s friend had been calling him.
At first, he thought that Du Keke had some ‘rejection process’ that she had not finished yet, but He Jiong also went to the appointment very cooperatively.
Later on, he realized that it was purely that girl who was asking him out alone.
He was no longer cooperative.
Slowly, he did not pick up the phone.
However, the girl was very persistent and kept calling.
He could only block her.
In the end, the other party changed her number and called again.
He Jiong thought for a moment and told her, “Unless you have Du Keke’s looks and figure, we’ll never be together.”
The girl was very angry. “What are you thinking about? Seeing that you and Teacher Wang know each other, I just wanted to be friends. Do you think I’ve taken a fancy to you? You’re overthinking things!”
That being said…
After that, the girl finally stopped looking for him.
However, this was not the worst.
Xu Wa was in a car accident.
It was on the day she sent him the lunch box.
It happened at the entrance of the Academy.
The security guard called the hospital for emergency treatment.
When He Jiong heard the news and went to the hospital to visit, the operation had already ended.
There were many people in the ward.
There were elders and peers. Friends like Du Keke, who were close to her, could also enter the room to visit.
However, He Jiong definitely could not enter.
He did not want to force his way in, so he put down the fruit basket and left after getting a general understanding of the situation.
He Jiong understood.
The girl was very unlucky. She was suffering from an uncommon but melodramatic side effect of a car accident – blindness.
In this case, they would either have to spend a lot of money to find a micro-robot to perform an intracranial operation to remove blood clots and repair the nerves, or they would have to get some miracle medicine from the top of the World Tower, or an expert willing to take the girl up to the 300th floor to solve this problem.
Otherwise, there was basically no possibility of recovery.
The girl came from an ordinary family. She was not poor, but not rich either.
The daily expenses were still okay, but when it came to such high surgery costs that were in the millions or even tens of millions, it was a little ‘too much’.
More importantly, the risk of such surgery was extremely high. It was likely to turn ‘blindness’ into ‘paralysis’ or even ‘death’.
Therefore, unless she made a clear request for surgery, even her parents would not dare to make such a decision on their own.
The driver of the car in the accident was also very unlucky. The other party was driving normally, and there was no pedestrian crossing, so he drove at a regular speed. However, he did not expect a girl who seemed to be in a daze on the side of the road to suddenly hit the front of the car.
The distance was too close, and even with the emergency brake, he still hit her.
He thought it was a scam, but the girl’s head ended up bleeding all over the ground.
After the accident appraisal, the car owner was finally determined to be responsible for the girl’s medical expenses and a certain amount of delay in work.
The car owner wanted to cry but had no tears.
According to the contract, the insurance company under the First Consortium would only bear a total of no more than 100,000 points.
The car owner will bear the excess.
Fortunately, after Xu Wa regained consciousness, she made it clear that she would not undergo the high-risk surgery and would only undergo conservative treatment.
Otherwise, even if she sold her house and car, she would not be able to pay for it.
It could also be considered an unexpected disaster.
She would probably drive far away from pedestrians for the rest of her life.
A few days later.
When He Jiong came to the hospital to visit again, there were finally a lot fewer accompanying nurses.

There were only two elderly people and a middle-aged woman.

After greeting each other, they found out that the two old people were Xu Wa’s grandparents, and the middle-aged woman was her mother.
Everyone was a little surprised that He Jiong, who had appeared in the ward as an ordinary friend.
Even the blind Xu Wa was no exception.
Although she was weak, she did not look depressed. She laughed and teased He Jiong, “Why are you here? Do you want to ‘meet’ by chance? I’m sorry to disappoint you, but she left a long time ago.”
He Jiong put down the two boxes of milk he had taken from the Academy’s cafeteria and shook his head.
Then, he saw the medical bandage on her face and said, “We’re all friends. You only got into this accident because you wanted to give me something. I should come and visit you.”
Xu Wa laughed silently.
After a pause, she said to the middle-aged woman by the bed, “Mom, can you help me wash an apple? Grandfather and grandmother, why don’t you guys go downstairs and take a break? I want to have a word with He Jiong.”
The middle-aged woman looked at He Jiong suspiciously, then walked out of the room with the two old men. She quietly stood outside the room and peeked through the door.
He Jiong laughed and asked, “What’s so mysterious that you have to send your family away? They’ll misunderstand me later.”
Xu Wa waved her hand weakly and chuckled. “I heard that Nana asked you out but you blocked her, and you even rejected her?”
“Nana?” He Jiong recalled the girl’s appearance. “So that’s her name? But I didn’t reject her! I’m just saying that without Keke’s figure and looks, there’s no chance for her.”
Xu Wa laughed. “You dare say that’s not a rejection? You’re basically sticking the word ‘ugly’ directly on her head! I really don’t understand you guys’ taste. Let’s not talk about looks, but in terms of figure, Nana is even better than Keke! Even Keke is envious of her waist!”
“I don’t understand you girls’ aesthetics!” He Jiong argued, unconvinced, “What do you mean by figure? Don’t you understand that it’s good if you don’t become a skeleton? If it were up to me, even without Keke, you’d still look better than this Nana girl!”
The voice fell.
The room was silent.
He Jiong recalled the words he had blurted out in a daze.
The tips of Xu Wa’s ears turned slightly red, but she quickly returned to normal. She pretended to be angry and said, “What do you mean by ‘I’m better looking than her’? Why doesn’t that sound like a compliment?”
He Jiong laughed in cooperation and tried to ease the atmosphere. “There’s no point in arguing about this. Miss Nana made it clear that I’m overthinking it. She just wants to be friends for the sake of my Boss.”
Xu Wa gave a soft ‘okay’ and did not continue this topic.
She was not used to talking about others behind their backs. Just now, she really wanted to gossip, but when the person involved appeared, she could not help but send her family away to chat for a while.
She felt a little tired after talking so much.
It had been a while, and her mother should be back soon.
Then, she stopped.
However, He Jiong was an expert on the 300th floor, so he could not hide from the people outside the door behind him who were openly ‘hiding’ from eavesdropping.
Seeing that the person outside did not intend to come in.
The room was so quiet that it was a little awkward.
He had the thought of leaving.
In any case, they had already greeted each other face-to-face on this trip. After all, the two sides were just acquaintances who could not even be called friends.
She made the trip to deliver him a lunch box, while he made the trip to visit her twice. They were even now.
Besides, he had bought a fruit basket once at his own expense!
With his current financial situation, spending more than 200 points to buy a fruit basket was a huge loss!
This was money that he had borrowed from someone else, and he was still waiting to return it.
He Jiong pushed the milk on the bedside table further in and said to Xu Wa, “This is the milk that only teachers in the Academy can drink. I heard that it’s very nutritious. Remember to drink it. I’ll take my leave first.”
“Thank you,” Xu Wa thanked him softly. “I’ve troubled you to make this trip. Thank you for coming to visit me.”
“You’re welcome,” He Jiong turned around.
He thought about it before he left.
“I heard that you rejected the surgery. Is it because of the money?”

Xu Wa was slightly taken aback.
She had thought that he had already left, but he had unexpectedly returned.
“You should be the thousandth person to ask me this question in the past few days!” she said with a bitter smile.
He Jiong opened his mouth but did not know how to respond. He could only symbolically praise her. “You’re so popular. So many people care about you.”
