After three years of being married into the family, his identity as a miracle doctor can no longer b

Gu Jia led Lin Yuan straight into the gate of the residential compound.

As night deepened, the streetlights in the neighborhood lit up one by one, casting warm yellow light on the road, creating a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

The two had just reached the bottom of the building and were about to swipe their cards to go upstairs.

Two abrupt figures suddenly emerged from the shadows to the side.

They blocked their way!

They were two sleazy young men.

Wearing a flashy short-sleeved shirt, looking nonchalant, with a roguish look in his eyes, he clearly wasn't someone who worked a proper job.

As soon as the two came out, their eyes were fixed on Gu Jia, and their tone was full of impatience.

"Gu Jia! I've been waiting for you!"

"You can't hide forever; we have to get this over with today!"

The sudden turn of events instantly made the atmosphere on set stiff.

Gu Jia's body stiffened slightly, and the relaxed smile on her face vanished instantly.

Instead, he looked embarrassed and ashamed.

She didn't expect these two people to block her apartment building from the street.

What she didn't expect was that they would run into each other right when she brought Lin Yuan over!

Lin Yuan stood quietly to the side, watching the scene unfold, his eyes slightly darkened, and he remained silent.

Gu Jia's cheeks flushed red instantly, and she was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do.

She bit her lip, suppressing the panic in her heart, and whispered pleadingly to the two men:

"Brothers, could you please give me a little more time?"

"I just spent all my salary this month, and I'm really short on cash."

"I'll pay you back part of it as soon as I get my salary next month, okay?"

Her voice was soft, tinged with humility and helplessness.

It's clear that she's been agonizing over this for a long time.

But the two thugs didn't buy it at all, their faces full of disdain and arrogance.

The taller man sneered, took a step forward, and spoke with extreme arrogance.

"next month?"

"You only get a few thousand yuan a month in fixed salary!"

"Paying back little by little, when will it ever be enough to pay it all off?"

"This little bit of money isn't even enough to fill a tooth gap! Don't try to make empty promises; you need a straight answer today!"

"Either pay us back, or give us a solution. Don't try to hide forever!"

The two men pressed on relentlessly, their tone harsh and merciless.

For a moment, the atmosphere downstairs in the apartment building was incredibly oppressive.

Gu Jia lowered her head, her ears turning completely red.

He was extremely embarrassed.

She secretly glanced at Lin Yuan beside her, feeling both ashamed and embarrassed.

She and Lin Yuan were only doctor and patient; they had only known each other for two days.

The two were not very familiar with each other.

But now, Lin Yuan saw his pathetic state as he was publicly confronted and harassed by people demanding repayment of his debts.

This private and embarrassing ordeal was witnessed in its entirety by a complete stranger.

Anyone would feel incredibly embarrassed and awkward in that situation.

Gu Jia gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, her fingertips turning slightly white.

A hint of grievance and helplessness welled up in her eyes.

She was usually gentle and dignified, and had never been this disheveled before.

But it was precisely at his most miserable moment that he encountered Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan, standing to the side, took in all of Gu Jia's embarrassment, grievances, and awkwardness.

Seeing her lowered head, suppressing her emotions, and looking helpless.

Looking at her humble appearance as she forced herself to beg for leniency.

A surge of intense heartache welled up in Lin Yuan's heart.

In her past life, Gu Jia was bright, gentle, and carefree.

What exactly did she go through in her life to end up with debt and be publicly harassed and bullied like this?

At the same time, a cold, fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

How dare two thugs bully the person he was protecting in public?

Seeing the two thugs relentlessly pressing and harassing Gu Jia, Lin Yuan's eyes turned completely cold.

He took a step forward, standing directly in front of Gu Jia and protecting her behind him.

A deep, calm voice suddenly rang out, carrying an undeniable aura.

"How much money does she owe you?"

Upon hearing the sound, the two thugs looked up and sized up Lin Yuan.

Seeing that he was dressed plainly and looked young, and didn't seem like any important person, they immediately dismissed him.

The tall thug scoffed and casually rattled off a number.

"Principal of 50,000, overdue for half a month, interest of 205, totaling 50,205!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yuan turned his head to look at Gu Jia, who was looking extremely embarrassed behind him, and his tone softened a bit.

"Gu Jia, is this the correct number?"

Gu Jia trembled slightly, raised her red eyes, looked at the back of the person in front of her who had shielded her from all the pressure, and nodded gently, her voice barely audible: "Yes...that's right."

This debt had been weighing on her for a long time. Fifty thousand yuan was like a mountain to her, who only earned a few thousand yuan a month. It made her feel suffocated and anxious day and night.

After confirming that the amount was correct, Lin Yuan didn't ask any more questions and directly took out his phone and opened the transfer interface.

Gu Jia, who was standing to the side, panicked completely.

Her eyes widened in disbelief.

They were clearly just having a normal doctor-patient relationship!

We've only known each other for two days; it was just a chance encounter!

Why should Lin Yuan, who is not related to me, repay my huge debt of more than 50,000 yuan?

This favor is too great; she simply cannot repay it!

Gu Jia quickly reached out to stop Lin Yuan, saying urgently, "Dr. Lin, no! It's not necessary! You really don't need to pay it back for me! I can pay it back myself slowly!"

She was anxious and flustered, her face full of unease.

Fifty thousand yuan is no small sum.

How could she accept such a great favor from Lin Yuan for no reason?

But Lin Yuan didn't give her a chance to stop him.

With swift fingertip movements, enter the amount, confirm the account, and click transfer.

The movements were fluid, crisp, and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.

drop!

50000 yuan received via Alipay!

205 yuan received via Alipay!

The notification sound of successful mobile transfer rang repeatedly.

50,205 yuan, fully credited to your account!

The two thugs looked at the payment notification on their phones, and their faces instantly lit up with delighted smiles.

I thought tonight would be another wasted effort with no money to be received, but I didn't expect to run into a sucker who paid the full amount in one go!

His attitude instantly changed from arrogant and domineering to polite and obsequious.

"Payment received! You're a great guy, bro!"

Lin Yuan's expression was indifferent, without the slightest ripple, and he spoke in a deep voice:

"The money has been settled. Show me the IOU."

"From now on, she is even with you, and you are not allowed to harass her again."

The two thugs were overjoyed at having made money, and dared not utter a single word.

He immediately pulled out a paper IOU from his pocket, which clearly stated Gu Jia's loan amount, signature, and fingerprint, and was complete and formal.

Without any hesitation, they handed the IOU directly to Lin Yuan.

"No problem! Payment settled! Here's the IOU! We'll never cause you any more trouble!"

I received the IOU and confirmed that it was correct.

The two thugs didn't linger any longer, turned around cheerfully and left, disappearing into the night in the neighborhood in the blink of an eye.

The noise subsided, and the area downstairs instantly returned to silence.

Only Lin Yuan and Gu Jia remained, standing quietly under the streetlights.

The atmosphere was subtly quiet.

Gu Jia stared blankly at Lin Yuan, her mind a complete blank, her heart churning with endless complex emotions.

More than 50,000 yuan!

She paid it off for her so easily!

Why is this doctor, whom I've only known for two days, being so kind to me?
