Ye Wan suddenly fell to the ground, covering her neck and coughing violently.
Gu Yunting squatted down, grabbed her long hair, and forced her face up. "Die? That's too good for you! Remember what I said, you'll never escape my grasp! If I see you entangled with other men again, I won't let you off!"
After speaking, the man patted her cheek and got up to leave.
Ye Wan sprawled on the ground, gasping for air. How could she forget? He wouldn't allow her to die. If she died, who would he vent his anger on?
Since she couldn't die, she had to try her best to live. Ye Wan recovered slightly and got up from the ground. She went to the faucet and washed her face with cold water. Her exceptionally beautiful and delicate face regained its composure, and she turned to leave.
It was as if the person who had almost been strangled to death was not her at all.
...
After class, Ye Wan received a call from the hospital. It was her younger brother's attending physician, saying he wanted to discuss her brother's recent condition with her.
She thought there had been a change in her brother's condition and rushed to the hospital. When she ran into the doctor's office, Dr. Zhang was writing a medical record. He looked up when he heard the sound and a flash of astonishment crossed his eyes when he saw her.
This girl was truly too beautiful. Even though she was disheveled from rushing there, with fine sweat on her forehead, she was still as beautiful as a fairy.
"Dr. Zhang, what's wrong with my brother?" Ye Wan was usually too busy with classes and part-time jobs to visit her brother in the hospital often.
She had no choice. She was exhausted every day paying for her brother's medical expenses and had no free time.
"Xiao Wan, you're here. Don't rush, sit down and wipe your sweat. Ye Cheng's condition is quite stable. I just wanted to tell you that we haven't found a suitable match for Ye Cheng, so we might need to think of other solutions." Dr. Zhang had simply wanted to see her and intentionally found an excuse to call her over.
Hearing this, Ye Wan's delicate eyebrows furrowed. She asked, "What other solutions are there? Dr. Zhang, you must help me!"
Her brother's life was her life! No matter the cost, she would save her brother!
"I told you not to worry. Have some water first. I will definitely help you think of a solution. How about we have dinner together tonight and discuss it in detail?" Dr. Zhang smiled kindly.
Ye Wan didn't think much of it and immediately agreed, "You've been troubled for so long, I should treat you to a meal as thanks."
"You make it sound so formal. I'll be done shortly," Dr. Zhang said, smiling happily, his gaze towards Ye Wan brightening even more.
"I'll go see Xiao Cheng," Ye Wan said, and went to see her brother first. He was sleeping at the moment, so she didn't wake him.
Dr. Zhang drove a Volkswagen, and Ye Wan sat in the back. The man's gaze continuously swept over the stunning face of the girl behind him, and the more he looked, the more restless he felt, wishing he could immediately have her beneath him!
Thinking of this, his breathing became rapid, and he could barely control his emotions.
Ye Wan was completely unaware of this. Her mind was entirely on her brother's condition, thinking that no matter what, she had to save her brother!
The car stopped outside a high-end restaurant. Ye Wan looked at the restaurant and instinctively reached for her wallet. She had just paid her brother's fees and was now out of money.
A meal at a restaurant of this caliber would cost at least four figures, right?
But for her brother, any amount of money was worth it!
