The crowd surveyed the man in disbelief, and they turned to look back at Li Qin. They were now confused!
Did she not say that her daughter was out hooking up with big bosses?
Could it be this man?
Li Qin had been dealt with a heavy blow. The man questioned once, and everyone went silent.
Who dared come clean with him?
Confronted with the intense aura radiating off him, everyone subsequently lost their anger and held their heads down awkwardly to do their things.
"You… Who are you to our Shishi?" Li Qin finally mustered her courage to ask.
Yun Shishi wrinkled her brows in disgust.
"'Our?"
How could her adoptive mother's attitude unexpectedly do a one-eighty?
"Who is she?" He took a glance at her adoptive mother, then he lowered his head to ask her.
She clearly did not want to tangle with her further, so when the man questioned, she only replied with, "Adoptive mother."
Adoptive mother?
That woman who forced her to sign that surrogacy contract six years ago?
He glanced sharply at her.
This woman is truly wicked.
Back then, if it were not for that contract, what other ideas would she have on her adopted daughter? D*mn it!
Li Qin backed away under his scathing glare. Her body slightly trembled.
How could this man's eyes be this scary? They looked like knives hungry for a piece of her flesh!
"What's the matter?"
Yun Shishi glanced at Yun Na, who was lying dazedly in bed, and simply stated, "My younger sister was met with an accident, and now she needs a large sum of money for plastic surgery, or her face will remain ruined. My adoptive mother asked me for money - I don't have it, and it's impossible for me to provide her that."
He asked, "How much do you need?"
Not waiting for her to answer, Li Qin immediately replied, "1,000,000 yuan!"
One million?!
Yun Shishi's eyes were filled with anger and shame.
Did she not just tell her that she needed 500,000 yuan? Why was she asking for 1,000,000 yuan now?
"A million? Didn't you just say that it's 500,000 yuan? Why is it a million now?" She was worked up.
Her adoptive mother replied awkwardly, "Oh, you heard it wrongly."
Before Yun Shishi could talk back to her, a patient's family at the side, who had previous stood up for Li Qin, said, "She didn't hear it wrongly. You did say 500,000 yuan moments ago, and you've changed it to a million just now. Sister, don't be too greedy."
She sulked, "Our Nana became like this because of some b*stard, and her face is entirely wrecked. The doctor said that 1,000,000 yuan is needed to restore her original appearance. As Yun Na's elder sister, Shishi naturally has a duty to help her out a little. We're family, and now that we're in a crisis…"
"Duty?" Yun Shishi balled up her hands into fists. "What duties do I have?!"
Was she a leech? Was she going to suck her blood until the very last drop?
How could she be so greedy?
"I have it; 1,000,000 yuan."
Standing behind her, he spoke simply.
A simple statement from him resulted in everyone's eyes enlarging from shock.
One could easily get 1,000,000 yuan by requesting for it; who exactly was this man? Could he be a billionaire?
Li Qin's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed excitedly, "It's settled, then! There's hope for our Nana!"
Who exactly is this man? He is actually this wealthy?
Oh, yes!
The contract signed in the past had stated a remuneration of a few million yuan. After giving birth, a lofty sum of money was again paid by the employer to her adopted daughter.
This man must be from a wealthy family. Li Qin was absolutely green with envy. She thought to herself in jealousy, Actually meeting such a loaded investor, hasn't this Yun Shishi really struck it rich?
