Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Chapter 172 Eat Whatever You Want

Lin Ruoxi nodded. In fact, she thought so too. Every time she saw Chen Tingting hanging on Xue Rui, she felt a little unhappy...

Now that Xue Rui said so, she went up and did it.

Lin Ruoxi walked over, held up Chen Tingting's arms, and separated Chen Tingting from Xue Rui's body.

Chen Tingting tilted her neck to look at Lin Ruoxi. She now understood that Lin Ruoxi actually had two identities in school, and she was only one or two years older than her.

Chen Tingting stood on tiptoe angrily, trying to make herself look taller, but even when she stood as high as she could, she was still a long way behind Lin Ruoxi...

Xue Rui was speechless for a while. Chen Tingting's actions were too obvious. It was obvious that she cared a lot about her short stature.

He smiled and said to Chen Tingting: "Eat more, maybe you can grow taller."

"I have no appetite." Chen Tingting was in a bad mood as she thought that Xue Rui was about to graduate and she would not see him in school anymore.

Lin Ruoxi found that the girl was unhappy, so she gave Chen Tingting a small piece of cake and said in a soft and sticky voice: "Eating cake will make you feel good."

"Huh?" Chen Tingting was surprised.

Is this girl really the same person as the dignified "inspector teacher" she usually sees?
She didn’t dare to look Lin Ruoxi in the eye before, but why did Lin Ruoxi look so dazed now?

Lin Ruoxi thought this girl was so weird. She was thinking about lying on Xue Rui’s back every day. Was it really that fun?
She had never been carried on someone's back before, so she didn't know what it felt like...

"Why do you always want to lie on Xue Rui?" Lin Ruoxi asked stupidly.

Chen Tingting answered decisively: "Because I like him."

"Does liking someone mean you have to lie on top of them?" Lin Ruoxi murmured. She had learned something new.

Chen Tingting didn't know how to explain to Lin Ruoxi, so she asked in a low voice: "Do you have someone you like?"

Lin Ruoxi was stunned. Mei Lili often asked her about this topic before.

She looked up what love is on the Internet, and she liked eating, working, and sleeping with Xue Rui...

She raised her eyes and looked at Xue Rui.

Is this what it means to like someone?

Lin Ruoxi's eyes at this moment were gentle and smiling, as if all her emotions were only for the man reflected in her eyes.

Chen Tingting's heart skipped a beat. How come there was such a strong opponent again?
……

Xue Rui thought to himself that one of these two people was stupid and the other was stubborn...

He didn't know why Chen Tingting became so attached to him, and thought that maybe it would be better when Chen Tingting grew up a little.

"I hope so." Xue Rui was not very confident about this matter.

The cell phone in his pocket vibrated, and he took it out and saw that it was a call from a landline number.

"Hello?" Xue Rui answered the call casually.

"Xue Rui, right? This is the Municipal People's Hospital. An old lady fell down..."

Xue Rui said indifferently: "Can you use more sophisticated tricks to deceive people?"

The girl on the other end of the phone was stunned: "What a lie! We found a business card on the old lady with your phone number on it. It's Happy Candy Crush Limited..."

"Which hospital? I'll be there right away." Xue Rui's expression suddenly became serious. Those were the business cards he had printed before, and he only had a box of them under the coffee table in Lin Ruoxi's house.

"Actually, the patient is fine..."

Xue Rui hung up the phone, walked to Lin Ruoxi and whispered, "The old lady fell down, let's go to the hospital."

When Lin Ruoxi heard these words, she felt as if her soul had been taken away. She stood there in a daze with her eyes fixed on the spot, and her face turned pale instantly.

Xue Rui sighed and patted Lin Ruoxi on the shoulder: "She just fainted, it's nothing serious, let's go."

"Yeah." Lin Ruoxi came back to her senses and looked at Xue Rui's tall back. She felt an unprecedented sense of security in her heart.

As long as Xue Rui is around, everything will be fine.

Xue Rui and Director Wang asked for leave, but Director Wang insisted on driving them to the hospital.

The First People’s Hospital, Inpatient Department.

Xue Rui frowned. The old lady was usually fine at home, so why was she suddenly sent to the hospital?

Even if he fainted at home, Lin Ruoxi would have to go back to find out. Who sent him to the hospital?
Walking into the inpatient department on the fourth floor, Xue Rui found the nurse on the floor and asked her. The nurse said that the patient was sent to the emergency room and just had a dislocated arm. It was nothing serious so he was admitted to the inpatient department first.

As for Lin Ruoxi, she had already gone to the old lady's side.

"What a jerk you are! Why are you helping an old lady? Haven't you watched TV?" a man in his fifties scolded.

The middle-aged woman in plain clothes said: "The old lady fell there, I can't pretend that I didn't see it, my conscience won't let me go..."

"You feel guilty about this. Our son is getting engaged in a few days. If he gets blackmailed, can you live with the fact that he can't get married?" The man kept clapping his hands as he said this.

"Well, what if the old lady says you pushed her down?" someone interrupted.

The crowd around was obviously divided into two factions, but most people still stood on the side of the men, thinking that it was better to have less trouble than more.

"I know..." The woman's voice gradually weakened. She was really scared by what these people said.

While Xue Rui was listening, a nurse passing by said:
"Why don't you go in? The old lady who fell is in Room 402."

When the woman saw Xue Rui asking about the old lady, she hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Are you from the old lady's family?"

Xue Rui nodded politely: "Yes, where did you find the old lady fell?"

……

Director Wang originally wanted to help Lin Ruoxi deal with the accident, but seeing Xue Rui doing the finishing work so maturely, he decided to go see Lin Ruoxi's parents first.

"Then give me the money later. I paid for the hospitalization." The woman took out a lot of bills from her worn-out bag. "I paid three thousand yuan. I didn't cheat anyone. The old lady fell down by herself." The woman said loudly.

Xue Rui sighed and thought that the old lady must have met a kind person.

Who would dare to help an old man these days? He took out 8,000 yuan from the money he had just withdrawn: "The extra 5,000 yuan is your lost wages."

"No way, my daily salary is only 60 yuan..." The woman refused Xue Rui for a long time, but finally, she couldn't stand Xue Rui's enthusiasm and accepted the money.

The man and the people who were accompanying the woman were all stunned. Xue Rui actually forced five thousand yuan on the woman.

"We can't let good people feel disappointed." Xue Rui said with a smile.

He was powerless to change anything, and could only give a little reward to the kind-hearted people...

"See, I told you that good people will be rewarded." The woman showed off her money to the man.

Xue Rui's eyes twitched. He really didn't know what to say. Should he persuade her to do good things? Or should he persuade her to be more careful next time?
Director Wang witnessed everything at the door. He felt that Xue Rui was a good student with good conduct and encouraged the social atmosphere to develop in a positive direction.

When Xue Rui walked into the ward, he found that the old lady had woken up and Lin Ruoxi was quietly accompanying her.

However, Xue Rui found that Director Wang actually turned around and left. He asked, "Where are you going, Director Wang?"

Director Wang whispered, "Since he is fine, I will go buy some gifts and visit him on behalf of the school."

"I'll just watch here." Xue Rui nodded.

After Director Wang walked away, Xue Rui walked over with a sullen face: "Old lady, you only know how to make trouble for me. Why do you go out alone for no reason?"

He just asked about the whole cause and effect. The woman who sent the old lady to the hospital was the community cleaning lady. When she was sorting out cardboard boxes downstairs, she happened to see the old lady falling down the stairs and falling on her pile of cardboard boxes.

Fortunately, there was a cardboard box to cushion the fall, otherwise who knows what would have happened to the old lady.

As for fainting, the nurse said it was caused by excessive shock and that he just needed to rest in the hospital for a few days.

The old lady said weakly, "Xixi's clothes fell down from the sun, and I wanted to go down and pick them up quickly before the wind blew them away."

Lin Ruoxi felt guilty when she heard this, and looked at Xue Rui with tears in her eyes: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Please don't quarrel with grandma, okay?"

Xue Rui had a lot of unpleasant things to say, but before he could say them to the old lady, he met Lin Ruoxi's eyes.

He felt very uncomfortable and gritted his teeth and said, "Old lady, eat and drink well, don't worry about it."

Lin Ruoxi felt something was weird. Xue Rui was clearly saying nice things, but why did it sound so uncomfortable?

The old lady was amused. Xue Rui's encounter with her granddaughter was like a punch hitting cotton.

Since Xue Rui knew that nothing serious happened here, he called Yu Minlan and asked her to come and accompany Lin Ruoxi so that she would have someone to keep her company in the hospital.

When a woman passed by the ward, she turned around and glanced at Lin Ruoxi: "Xixi? What are you doing in the hospital?"

"Hello, Aunt Fan." Lin Ruoxi greeted her obediently: "Grandma fell down, I'm here to accompany her."

"Old lady Wang?" The woman surnamed Fan looked at them in surprise and walked in to chat with the two of them.

"I came to see my relatives..."

……

Xue Rui didn't take it too seriously. That was how it was in a small city. You could run into acquaintances everywhere. This woman was most likely from Hua Village.

Not long after, Director Wang came over with two teachers, one of whom was holding a digital camera...

"Well, work must leave traces."

Xue Rui felt that Director Wang was truly a talented person, otherwise how could he become the director?

Yu Minlan also arrived at this time, carrying gifts of comfort, some of which even had the Agricultural Bank of China's logo on them.

Xue Rui looked at him in surprise and asked, "Have you come to your senses?"

Yu Minlan followed Xue Rui's gaze and immediately understood something. She explained in a low voice: "This is what our president ordered."

Xue Rui pinched his eyebrows and thought that now it was right.

"Old lady, I'm here to visit you on behalf of the school. Lin Ruoxi is in our school..." Director Wang chatted incessantly with the old lady.

When facing the camera, he deliberately put his hand on the old lady's shoulder, showed a charitable smile, and motioned Lin Ruoxi to lean towards him.

"..." Xue Rui was speechless. He said to Yu Minlan beside him: "Why, I'll take a picture of you later?"

The old lady looked uneasy; she was really flattered.

She just fell, why did so many people come to visit her?
She turned to look at Xue Rui, and found that Xue Rui was looking at her with a smile on his face: "Eat well and drink well."

The last time she was hospitalized, no one came to visit her except her granddaughter...

After the group of people left, the old lady breathed a sigh of relief. It was so tiring to be visited by others...

A patient nearby asked curiously, "Old lady, what's wrong with you? Why are so many people visiting you?"

The old lady smiled bitterly and said, "I just fell down, it's nothing."

"What did the doctor say?" asked the family member of the patient in the next bed.

Lin Ruoxi thought for a moment and said, "Eat well and drink well."

This is what Xue Rui told her.

The man accompanying the bed was shocked and thought, isn't this almost over? How come this little girl can't even understand such words?

He walked over to the old lady and whispered, "The doctor said to eat and drink well, but you can only eat whatever you want. You won't be able to eat anymore in the future..."
