Chapter 97 Your Identity
Bang! Bang! Bang '
Wanda looked up at the fireworks outside. All kinds of fireworks, they were temporary and beautiful,
flashing in the black sky, revealing her calm face.
It had been a year since she moved here.
This was the Half-moon Town. When she was a child, there were also many people here. But later,
because the young people wanted to go out for work, and some of the older generation passed away
others moved out. Now there was few people living here anymore. Only on festivals, there would be
someone who wanted to add a little life to this silence.
Wanda had planned to find a job in the town after she settled down here. But since Ryan was beaten
by Kevin's men last time and locked up by Nelson for a few days, his health was worse than before.
However, the best thing was that there was no casino here. Ryan could do nothing even if he wanted
to.
They lived a carefree life now, and it was the same as before. Every day, she would worry about how
she would treat her uncle if he fell ill again.
But things couldn't always be a win-win situation. In this kind of days, she had an unprecedented
peace, and gradually destroyed some of the extravagant hopes that were almost born.
It seemed that she just had a dream in the city where she used to live. When the dream woke up,
everything was the same.
"Ahem..."
Ryan coughed violently in the room, which made Wanda's heart tremble. She quickly stood up and
walked in. Recently, her uncle coughed more and more violently, and the doctors in the town couldn't
find anything wrong with him. But according to his situation, they all persuaded Wanda to send him to a
big hospital, but Ryan refused.
Ryan had already sat up on the bed because of the cough. Wanda walked over and gently smoothed
his back.
She poured him another glass of warm water.
Ryan took it and drank it. He turned around and looked at Wanda. With a pale face, he was much
skinnier than before.
"Uncle, let's go to the town to have a look tomorrow. If it doesn't work, we can go to the South Sea
City."
"Don't waste that money. I'm old enough." Ryan looked at Wanda with his dark eyes and said, "I know
you still blame me in your heart, but Wanda, I'm really afraid of being poor all my life. I know I was
selfish. I wanted to ease your burden by gambling, but... "
"Let bygones be bygones. You'd better cure your disease first. Everything will be fine. " Wanda held
Ryan's hand and said with red eyes. How could a family hate each other overnight? Besides, it had
been a long time since the incident happened.
"Wanda, you can leave now. I have raised you for more than ten years, but in fact, you have already
paid me back. You don't owe me, I owe you. You are still so young. You shouldn't waste your time and
youth for a half dead person like me. Not long before, grandpa Xu told me that your old friend had been
married and was about to have a second child. But I held your back, I'm afraid that I'll be punished in
the next life. "
"What are you talking about? If I really leave you here, I will be punished. How can I have the face to
see my mother in the future? You're just overthinking all day long and always feel that you're insane.
How about this? Tomorrow we'll go to Eon City, which is also very close. Let's go to the hospital to have
a check and it may make you feel better" Wanda pretended to be unhappy and rolled her eyes at Ryan,
"I have the final say this time. If you don't listen to me, I will take you to the hospital even if I have to tie
you up."
Ryan shook his head with a helpless smile. "No matter what, I won't go to the hospital during the Spring
Festival. It's ominous. Wait for two more days. "
Wanda didn't dare to argue with Ryan on this matter. It was the tradition. It was said that on Spring
Festival all the bad luck would leave because of the arrival of this festival. Everything would have a new
beginning! Therefore, in these days, going to the hospital would be regarded as bad luck.
On the second day, Wanda told a lie to Ryan. She went to the hospital alone and found a doctor in this
respect. The most important thing was to know how much it would cost.
There were always a lot of people in the hospital, and there was no way to bargain. The doctor looked
at Wanda, raised his glasses and said calmly, "You have to see what kind of illness the patient has first.
I can't make everything clear just through your description, right? The bed in the hospital is very tight © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
recently. If you need to be hospitalized, you'd better go and get the deposit now. "
The reason why her uncle refused to go to the hospital was that he didn't want to, or in other words he
didn't dare to go back to the South Sea City. If they lived in Eon City, he would definitely be
hospitalized.
After making it clear, Wanda paid the deposit first. But she didn't expect that the deposit alone was two
thousand.
Her uncle was her only family. No matter how expensive it was, she must cure him.
As soon as she walked out of the payment room, someone called her name behind her. She was
stunned and turned around to look at the person walking towards her. "It's really you? I thought I was
wrong just now. "
"Head nurse..." Wanda lowered her head with embarrassment. She was supposed to work here, but
when she left later, she didn't even call her. Wanda didn't expect that she and the head nurse had only
met each other for two times. And it had been so long, but the head nurse still remembered her.
"Why are you here? Do you feel uncomfortable? "
"My uncle will be hospitalized here in a few days. I know that beds in the hospital were always tight, so
I come here to reserve a bed." Wanda lowered her head and said in a low voice. She twisted her hands
slightly and said, "Head nurse, I wonder if you are still short of people here?"
The head nurse pulled Wanda aside, looked around and said, "Why are you so nervous in this
hospital? They just want to take the opportunity to get more money from you outsiders. Why didn't you
come to me just now? " Then she sighed slightly, "But don't worry. Since I'm here, I'll take good care of
you. I'll ask someone for you. If you decided to work here again, it's also convenient for you to take
care of your uncle."
"Thank you, ma'am. I don't need too much money. I just need a place to stay and that will be enough."
The head nurse smiled at her and said, "They don't know who you are. If they know, no one dares to
accept your money. I'll ask Doctor Zhang if he can cancel his vacation and come back to treat your
uncle. We'll arrange the best ward for him. "
Wanda was stunned, "Is there any misunderstanding?"
"I understand. You don't want to be high-profile. I understand. I will try my best to cooperate and not
leak it out." The head nurse covered her mouth and smiled. She said goodbye to Wanda and left.
