“What are you doing here? Did something happen to Mr. Li? No wonder the head nurse said that there was a distinguished guest in the hospital, so everyone had to be alert. What happened to Mr. Li?” Jiang Yuxin asked three questions in rapid-fire. Jiang Yule could hear the excitement hidden in her seemingly concerned words.

Jiang Yule lowered her head and discreetly rolled her eyes. ‘Heh, if I didn’t know better, it almost seems like Yuxin is the one who’s expecting to inherit Li Xingyi’s inheritance.’

“If you care so much about him, why don’t you ask him yourself?”

Jiang Yuxin was indeed about to carry the medicine box and head toward the hospital ward.

“You might as well save your energy. The one who’s sick isn’t Li Xingyi. It’s my friend.”

Upon learning that the person who was sick was not Li Xingyi, Jiang Yuxin did not even try to hide her disappointment and no longer wished to deliver the medicine. She immediately handed the medicine box to Jiang Yule.

“Since she’s your friend, you can give her the medicine yourself. The instructions on how to take the medicine and the dosage are written in the manual.”

Jiang Yule could not be bothered to argue with her. She took the medicine box and walked toward the ward.

The dorky expression on Jiang Yuxin’s face disappeared as soon as Jiang Yule left the stairwell. Jiang Yuxin’s eyes darkened and she secretly followed her to the hospital room door, pressing her ear against it to eavesdrop on the conversation inside.

Mrs. Zuo’s name was actually Zhong Xiaohui. She had already opened her eyes and regained consciousness by the time Jiang Yule pushed the door open. Seeing her with a plastic bag of medicine boxes, Zuo You quickly got up to take them. “Let me take that, Sister Jiang.”

Jiang Yule handed him the medicine, along with the hospital meals that she had bought from the cafeteria. When the couple saw the food in the lunch boxes, embarrassment and uneasiness flashed across their eyes.

The fact that Zhong Xiaohui had been arranged to stay in such a nice and quiet single room was already enough to make the two of them nervous. When they saw the food that Jiang Yule was providing them, they could not hide the embarrassment on their faces.

Jiang Yule grew up in a lower-class family, so she naturally understood where their anxiety came from. She immediately explained, “My sister works in this hospital. Now that the hospital wards are empty, I asked her to find a more comfortable ward for you. The doctor had said that there’s nothing wrong with your body, and that you can be discharged today.”

The couple were relieved by this. Being discharged today meant that the medical bill would not be too expensive.

“Sister Jiang, it’s really too troublesome for you.” Zuo You bowed sincerely to Jiang Yule.

Jiang Yule quickly reached out to hold him up. “Brother Zuo, what are you doing? It’s no trouble at all for me to lend a hand. Besides, Ranran is a good friend of my family’s child. This small favor is nothing for you to worry about.”

Jiang Yuxin, who had been eavesdropping outside the door, felt her eyelids twitch. ‘So that’s how it is.’ Then, she left quietly.

While chatting with the young couple, Jiang Yule reached into her pocket to touch the turtle inside and asked, ‘Has she left yet?’

The little turtle in her pocket slowly bumped its head against Jiang Yule’s palm and replied, ‘She has.’

Jiang Yule’s expression did not change as she invited Zuo You to sit down on the sofa beside her. She thought to herself that there was indeed something wrong with Jiang Yuxin.

“By the way, Brother Zuo, how’s your pig farm doing?” Jiang Yule asked straightforwardly.

Zuo You did not expect her to suddenly ask about this. He was stunned at first, then shook his head with a bitter smile. “I don’t plan on continuing to work in this area. I’ve been looking for a suitable buyer, but I haven’t found one yet.”

Jiang Yule asked him how much he planned to sell the pig farm for, and Zuo You gave her the price. She nodded thoughtfully. “Brother Zuo, how about this? I can offer you a 50% premium over the price you mentioned, and you can sell the pig farm to me.”

Zuo You and Zhong Xiaohui’s expressions changed.

“Sister Jiang, why would a young lady like you buy a pig farm? Don’t be impulsive. The market environment is not good right now. From what I know, there have been dozens of pig farms that have gone bankrupt within a month. If you buy one, won’t you just be waiting to lose money?”

In fact, he could tell at first glance that Jiang Yule was not short of money, but he was also worried that she would lose out on a whim.

Jiang Yule’s heart felt warm. ‘What a simple and kind couple.’

“Brother Zuo, you don’t have to worry about this. I definitely have a use for it, and I won’t let my money go to waste.”

Seeing that he was still hesitating, Jiang Yule could only ask him, “Did your sick pigs suddenly develop a fever of over forty degrees, followed by a loss of appetite and difficulty breathing? Did purple spots also appear on their bodies prior to their deaths?”
