Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 158

Chapter 158: No Longer Acquaintances, But Friends ( 3 )
After hearing his words, Sheng Xiaohong’s eyes widened with disbelief on her face. They grew up together and she thought they were childhood sweethearts. How could he say they didn’t have anything to do with each other? It must be because of that woman! It’s all her fault!

Anger and jealousy surged out of her heart, and Sheng Xiaohong lost her mind. She swept the medicine bag on the table to the floor and screamed, “Ling Yun, you can’t do this to me!”

Prank!

When Ling Yun heard the sound of broken glass, he turned around suddenly and saw the broken ointment on the ground. He looked at Sheng Xiaohong coldly. For the first time in his life, he felt the urge to kill someone. He clenched his fists tightly to prevent himself from strangling the woman in front of him.

“Get! Out!” He said through gritted teeth.

“I won’t leave! Why should I leave?! Everyone already knows that I like you. You can’t treat me like this!” Sheng Xiaohong screamed.

“Sheng Xiaohong, I never hit a woman. So, don’t force me to hit you. I don’t care what others say or think. From the beginning, I have no feelings for you. You can only blame yourself for your own illusion. Now, scram!” Ling Yun shouted to her.

This time, Sheng Xiaohong was startled by his ferocity. She didn’t expect that one day she would be treated like this by him.

Not long after, the nurse came in and asked, “What’s going on? This is a hospital. If you want to quarrel, go to another place!”

As soon as the nurse finished her words, Sheng Xiaohong turned around and ran out of the ward crying. The nurse frowned and looked at the two of them sternly before leaving.

When he was alone, Ling Yun took a few deep breaths before calming down. He squatted down and cleaned up the mess before going to the counter to buy medicine again.

Standing at the entrance of the hospital, he looked at the bright sky and sighed. He didn’t expect that his politeness was now giving him a headache. It seems that not everyone deserves his courtesy. It’s so troublesome when women go crazy.

Ling Yun walked alone, lost in thought. As he walked past the state-run restaurant, his steps stopped abruptly. He blinked a few times before turning his head to look inside. Pan Meijia was sitting on one of the chairs, eating soup dumplings with relish.

He hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked into the restaurant. When he stood at the table, Pan Meijia was still busy eating and didn’t notice his presence at all. He looked at her with complicated eyes.

She is indeed different from others. It was as if he was nothing at all in her eyes. Feeling the urge to touch his face to confirm whether he was still handsome, Ling Yun chuckled. What on earth is he thinking about?

Pan Meijia was startled when she heard the laughter. She raised her head and looked at Ling Yun. For a moment, she didn’t know if the person in front of her was real or an illusion. She blinked, swallowed the dumpling, and said, “Hello, comrade. Are you coming to have breakfast too?”

Ling Yun smiled at her and sat down opposite her. He put the medicine bag on the table and asked, “Why didn’t you come to see me when you came? I thought you broke your promise.”

Pan Meijia touched her nose, not knowing what to say. She did promise him that she would come today. However, the promise was to help him pay for hospital bills. Now that she has paid his hospital fee, doesn’t that mean she has fulfilled her promise?

Before she could speak, Ling Yun asked again, “Is it because you saw that person that you didn’t even bother to say hello to me?”

This time, Pan Meijia finally said, “Well, since someone is coming to pick you up, you don’t need my help. But, I have fulfilled my promise. You can’t say that I broke my promise. This concerns my integrity.”

Ling Yun looked at her and asked, “You promised to come see me today, but you left before you saw me. So, how can you say that you fulfilled your promise?”

“Huh? Didn’t you ask me to come see you today to pay for your medical expenses?” Pan Meijia asked.

After hearing her words, Ling Yun finally knew that the girl had misunderstood his words. A smile appeared on his face and he asked, “Are you a generous person or a fool?”

Pan Meijia was unhappy with his words and said, “Comrade Ling, I can be considered your benefactor. How can you call me a fool?”

“Aren’t you afraid that I won’t repay the money you lent me?” he asked again.

Pan Meijia was shocked, her eyes widened and she asked, “Aren’t you going to return the money to me? That’s not okay! I spent a total of 174 yuan on your hospitalization expenses. You must pay me back.”

Seeing her reaction, Ling Yun nodded and said seriously, “I will definitely return the money to you.”

Hearing his words, she sighed, patted her chest and said, “That’s good. Please don’t make such jokes again. I’m almost scared to death. If my father knew that I lent so much money to a stranger, he might beat me to death.”

“A stranger? I thought we could be considered acquaintances now.” Ling Yun said as he raised his eyebrows.

“Are we?” Pan Meijia asked with surprise.

Without saying anything else, Ling Yun went to the counter and ordered a bowl of soup dumplings. When he came back with a bowl of soup dumplings, he said, “After this meal, we are no longer acquaintances, but friends.”

Pan Meijia was stunned by his words. But then she thought about it, friends are still good. At least it would be easier for her to go find him when she wanted her money back. She nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll take you home after this meal.”
