Chapter 67

s.p.a.ce and Rebirth: The Favored Genius Doctor and Businesswoman - chapter 67 - Li Shaoyun (黎少雲)

Looking at this married woman who was pushed to suicide by her daughter in her past life, Jing Yunzhao felt pity .

Ye Qing’s mother’s suicide was spread all over county town in her past life . Her husband had suffered such a downfall and was unable to get up after that . He ended up becoming addicted to gambling . The family then relied solely on her taking up many jobs . She also had to work hard to pay off debts .

Even then, she didn’t force her daughter to quit school . Also, because her daughter had pleaded with her so many times, she always tried to s save her daughter’s face (pride) .

Even though she could support this family of hers, she couldn’t control her daughter’s endless spending . An unreliable husband and an untrustworthy daughter pushed her onto the road to ruin .

Looking at this woman bowing and apologizing for her daughter, Jing Yunzhao was feeling complicated emotions . People who want a mother like this will never get one, yet people who do have one won’t treasure them .

Due to Mother Ye’s constant apologies, the Yang parents eased up a little, but they still haven’t verbally forgiven them . They talked endlessly about how to teach a kid, and Mother Ye continued to agree without a hint of refuting . That Father Ye felt embarra.s.sed and left the room .

“Oh yeah, Aunty Ye, Ye Qing still hasn’t paid the restaurant bill . The owner’s here too, so why don’t you pay if off to him later . It was her treat after all…” Jiang Xia reminded at an inappropriate time .

He looked at Mother Ye with a pair of curious eyes . He had his own calculations .

He wasn’t in the position to say this, but he wanted to see if this Ye family was as prosperous as Ye Qing had said it to be .

Mother Ye’s face turned pale, “Th-this… how much?”

“Not a lot . Half’s already been paid . There’s only ¥1,600 left,” said Jiang Xia .

The other students’ faces were already slightly red . That restaurant owner Li Shaoyun raised an eyebrow . He was looking at Jiang Xia as if he had discovered a previously unexplored land . He was pretty shocked too .

“Is there something wrong with his here?” Pointing at his head, he whispered to Jing Yunzhao .

Jing Yunzhao’s mouth twitched, trying to hold back her laugh: “I guess . ”

Li Shaoyun smiled playfully, revealing an expression of sudden realization . He had both of his hands in his pockets, looking quite eye-catching .

The words “one thousand and six hundred” crushed Mother Ye’s heart . Her eyes were red . She reached into her pockets but only pulled out a few hundred . The crowd looked and was only one step away from collapsing .

“Aunt Ye, Jiang Xia was just kidding . I’ve already paid . If you don’t believe me, ask him…” Jing Yunzhao pointed at the man beside her but then paused . What was he called again?

“I am surnamed Li, Li Shaoyun,” the man’s lips curved, smiling .

“Yes, Owner Li would not ask for payment a second time,” Jing Yunzhao added .

Beside them, Xiao Haiqing’s eyebrows twisted and gave Jing Yunzhao a confused look . But when she saw her gentle eyes, she swallowed back her words . Honestly, even though she hated Ye Qing, looking at this distraught mother made her feel guilty .

Mother Ye’s tears rolled down and quickly shoved the few hundred yuan into Jing Yunzhao’s hands . “Um… I can’t let you pay . I was in a rush today so I didn’t bring that much . I’ll pay you the rest later . Thank you… . ”

Jing Yunzhao understood that Mother Ye didn’t admit that their family was bankrupt not because of her own face but because of Ye Qing’s face .

“Oh yeah, the hospital fees…” Mother Ye suddenly remembered that fee and panicked . However, before she could finish her sentence, Li Shaoyun spoke, “The fees have been paid . ”
