Chapter 12 One Hundred Thousand Yuan for a Consultation Fee_1

The awkward atmosphere slowly flowed between the two of them.

God knows how long it had passed.

The man lifted his hand and waved it.

"Hey~"

Ruan Qi: "..."

She had forgotten there was still a stranger in her home.

Ruan Qi touched her nose guiltily. "So... when did you wake up?"

"Just now." The man glanced at the bedsheets on the floor, his face full of confusion. "Why am I here?"

If it weren't for his clothes still being intact, he would have suspected that he'd been violated.

"Don't you remember what happened last night?" Ruan Qi asked.

"Last night..." The man tried to recall, "I remember being by the river last night...suddenly feeling a stomach ache, and after that..."

He was a bit embarrassed. "Sorry, I can't remember what happened after that."

"It's normal that you don't remember." Ruan Qi walked into the dining room and poured herself a glass of water. "You had a stomach ache, fainted, and fell into the river. I was the one who pulled you out."

The man suddenly realized.

No wonder he smelled like fish!

He was a bit scared retrospectively.

Lucky for him this young lady was brave enough to help, otherwise, by now he might have been nibbled to pieces by the fishes of the City-Guarding River!

"Little sister, thank you so much!" The man rushed up in one stride, grabbed Ruan Qi's hand, and kept bowing gratefully. "Thank you for saving me! I, I don't know how to repay you, what do you want? I'll give you anything I have!"

Ruan Qi withdrew her hand from his palm and shook her head indifferently.

"No need."

The man felt even more moved, helping others with no thought of reward, such a good young person in society!

Ruan Qi: "I saved you and also treated your illness. Just pay me the consultation fee."

The man who was just moved:"..."

He was baffled: "Wha, what treatment?"

"Your stomach illness." Ruan Qi's tone became serious as she mentioned it.

"You have a very serious stomach condition; you must have had a severe hemorrhage six months ago. Knowing your condition, why would you still drink excessively?"

The thirty-year-old man was scolded by the nineteen-year-old girl as if he were a grandson.

After she finished scolding, he couldn't help but ask, "Are you a med student?"

"Sort of."

"No wonder." The man said with a bitter smile, "Little sister is right. I really shouldn't drink excessively, it's just compelled by work."

"You helped treat my illness, so I should pay the consultation fee. How much? I'll transfer it to you."

Ruan Qi: "One hundred thousand."

"..." The man, "How, how much?!!!!!"

"Little sister, are you sure you didn't accidentally add two extra zeros?!"

Ruan Qi's gaze went from calm to suspicious as she looked at him.

"Well... you're not trying to dodge the bill, are you?"

After spending so much Vigor Energy drying clothes for this person last night, if he dodged the bill, wouldn't all her effort be in vain?

Ruan Qi's peach blossom eyes gradually rounded, like a little fox ready to scratch someone at any moment.

The man was unexpectedly charmed.

Forget it, a hundred thousand it is then.

Although he didn't think Ruan Qi's medical skills were that great, she had after all saved his life.

"I don't plan to dodge the bill, don't be nervous." He shook his head with an amused smile. "One hundred thousand, right? I'll transfer it to you right now."

With that, he reached for his pockets, only to find them empty.

The man suddenly remembered that he had left the company without bringing anything because he had been in a low mood yesterday.

He looked apologetically at Ruan Qi.

"Could I borrow your phone to call a friend to transfer the money to you?"

Ruan Qi handed him the phone.

Before long, a text message for a transfer of one hundred thousand arrived.

Ruan Qi looked at the balance in her bank account and was quite satisfied.

Just then, the phone screen flickered, and an unfamiliar number came in.

Ruan Qi answered the call.

"Hello?"

"Ah, it went through!" A familiar voice came from the phone, "Is this Miss Ruan? I'm Bai Yuchen!"

"Mr. Bai?" Ruan Qi was somewhat surprised.

Bai Yuchen: "I'm sorry, Miss Ruan, for suddenly checking your phone number. It's just that there's something important I'd like to ask for your help with."

Ruan Qi: "What is it? Go ahead."

"It's like this. You saved Grandpa Qin and Xiao Di, and we'd like to visit in person to thank you. Also, we want to discuss Grandpa Qin's illness with you. Miss Ruan, what do you think..."

Ruan Qi: "Sure."

"That's great!" Bai Yuchen was very surprised. "When would you be available, Miss Ruan? How about today?"

Ruan Qi: "Sure. I'll be home all day."

Immediately, Bai Yuchen said, "I'll bring someone over in a while. Thank you, Miss Ruan!"

Ruan Qi hung up the phone and looked up to see the man staring at her, lost in thought.

"What are you looking at?" she asked.

The man, a little embarrassed, smiled, "Nothing, occupational habit."

With that said, he couldn't help but glance at her face again.

So beautiful, it was breathtaking.

If this young girl were in his professional circle, even if just a pretty face, with this appearance, she could become a sensation overnight!
