Chapter 281: Chapter 281: No Money to Pay for the Fare
Lin Mubai hurriedly tried to get her to sit down, but because of a burst of pain, he couldn’t help but groan.
Just then, an unsatisfied male voice came from in front of them: "What a lack of class, even if you’re in heat, find a decent place, will you? Don’t you know this is a public area? If you’re broke, I can lend you some money to get a room."
The man’s voice wasn’t too loud or too soft, just enough for the people around him to hear, and suddenly, the murmurs around them grew louder.
Reproach, shouts, and scolding naturally weren’t lacking.
In the darkness, amidst these words, An Nan’s cheeks grew increasingly red, while Lin Mubai, whose stomach was still stabbing with pain, was dumbfounded. If there were lights now, it would be clear to see the same unnatural blush on his sweaty cheeks as An Nan.
He really wanted to shout back, "I’m having a stomach ache," but his good manners prevented him from yelling in public.
In the end, it was An Nan who pulled him away in a hurry.
At the cinema’s entrance, An Nan finally saw the man’s face filled with restrained pain and forgot about losing face in the cinema, hurriedly hailed a taxi, and rushed to the hospital with him.
All the way, Lin Mubai kept holding his stomach tightly, his head resting on the shoulder of the little woman beside him.
Seeing the hospital ahead, victory in sight, another embarrassing moment arrived.
"Little White, where’s your wallet?"
Lin Mubai kept his eyes closed, his trembling hands groping around his body, and then he opened his eyes blankly, and in the next moment, they saw each other’s embarrassed expressions.
"I think I left my jacket in the cinema," Lin Mubai said awkwardly.
An Nan’s face stiffened: "Don’t tell me that your phone and wallet happen to be in the jacket."
Lin Mubai really didn’t want to nod in agreement, but unfortunately, that’s the truth.
An Nan was instantly dumbfounded, what to do now? She exchanged glances with the driver’s side profile, wondering if they could write an IOU first.
In fact, the driver had already heard their conversation and didn’t get angry.
"Alright, miss, hurry and take your boyfriend to the hospital, it’s not good if treatment is delayed."
An Nan’s eyes reddened instantly: "Thank you, driver big brother, leave me your number, and I’ll definitely pay you back later."
The driver big brother smiled and waved his hand: "It’s just a small gesture, no need."
They stood there until the taxi driver’s car was out of sight, Lin Mubai even thought his stomach didn’t hurt as much anymore. As the car’s tail completely disappeared from view, he lowered his loving gaze onto the little woman in his arms.
Until the pain cascading from his stomach swept through him again, he couldn’t help but groan once more, drawing the little woman next to him back to her senses: "Oh dear, let’s hurry to the hospital."
At the hospital, it was chaos. Young Master Lin’s wallet was lost, so naturally, there was no way to go through the admission procedures.
This time, An Nan was thoroughly furious, slamming her fist on the desk in the attending doctor’s office: "Is this your doctors’ code of conduct? The patient is in such pain, and you’re still shirking responsibility here. If any problem occurs because of your delays, will you be responsible?"
Lin Mubai initially wanted to speak up and tell her not to be so angry, but seeing the little woman with a face full of rage, he obediently chose to keep quiet. He knew very well that if he spoke up right now, the next moment it would be him facing the bombardment.
