Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“How much money do you need?”
As Ye Tianxin looked at Yao Yaoyao, for an instant, she recalled what happened when her grandmother fainted and she sent her to the hospital. Back then, she was at a complete loss of what to do because she didn’t have any money.
Money was the only way to get by in this world.
Perhaps money can’t buy time or happiness, but it can give you a sufficient sense of security.
When you’re sick, you can spend money to hire the best doctor, stay in the best hospital ward, and use the best medicine available.
!!
What if you didn’t have money?
What else could you do other than wait for death?
Ye Tianxin knew very clearly that the medical system in the Empire would become more and more complete and comprehensive in the future.
However, it just hadn’t reached that stage yet as of now.
“What?”
Yao Yaoyao felt like she didn’t hear her clearly.
Ye Tianxin asked again, “I was asking, how much money do you need for your grandfather’s treatment?”
“Forty thousand dollars.”
Yao Yaoyao told Ye Tianxin the initial estimates of the cost of treatment that the doctor had told her.
Ye Tianxin took out a checkbook from her purse. Then, she wrote the number forty thousand on a check before passing it over to Yao Yaoyao.
Yao Yaoyao received the cheque from Ye Tianxin and didn’t comprehend what just happened for a good while.
Was she kind enough to give her a check?
Didn’t she just put her on the spot just now?
Yao Yaoyao’s feelings were exceptionally complicated right now.
She couldn’t describe her own emotions.
“I’m lending this money to you.’
Yao Yaoyao took out a notebook and a pen from her bag. Then, right in front of Ye Tianxin, she wrote an IOU slip for her.
Ye Tianxin was a good person.
She was willing to lend Yao Yaoyao money to help her through this difficult phase.
Yao Yaoyao accepted it.
She would surely earn money in the future and return it to her.
“I will return this to you as soon as possible.”
Ye Tianxin took over the IOU slip and looked at Yao Yaoyao.
Yao Yaoyao’s face was red from embarrassment. She felt like she had just taken advantage of Ye Tianxin.
She felt ashamed.
Ye Tianxin and her were like people living in two different worlds.
“Okay.”
Ye Tianxin accepted the IOU slip from Yao Yaoyao, then sat on a chair beside them to wait for the final results to be released.
Yao Yaoyao carefully held the cheque in her hand. This thin piece of paper felt like it weighed a thousand pounds to Yao Yaoyao right now.
This wasn’t just a check to her.
In the past, she did have some prejudices against Ye Tianxin. In reality, Ye Tianxin was a very very good person.
From now onwards, Yao Yaoyao would support Ye Tianxin.
Half an hour later, the door of the meeting room opened as the panel of judges attending the meeting had reached an agreement.
“Jiameng Embroidery” and “Yao Vocals” were both chosen to be crowned as the nation’s Intangible Cultural Legacy.
Yao Yaoyao shed tears of joy. Just moments ago, she was still worried whether the board would reject her because they felt that there were problems with her character.
She was overthinking it.
She would surely listen to her grandfather, stay humble and down-to-earth.
And promulgate the art of the Yao Vocals.
“Congratulations.”
Yao Yaoyao walked to the side of Ye Tianxin.
Ye Tianxin replied, “Congratulations to you as well.”
Yao Yaoyao smiled a little shyly and said, “Ye Tianxin, I’ll return the money to you as soon as possible. Now, I’ll head to the hospital and tell grandfather about this good news.”
“Go ahead.”
After Ye Tianxin and her group reached the car park, she gave Jing Zhichen a call.
“Zhichen, the application was successful. I think you may need to coordinate a publicity campaign on your side.”
Jing Zhichen nodded excitedly and said, “Of course, we need to put this news out there. Tianxin, you’re the best.”
