Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong

Chen Jiayi was originally full of grievances, but when she heard a few nice words, she let go of her hands and started sobbing again.

Ou Jiabao was patient this time.

After she had cried enough, he asked her about the card. Of course, he would not say that he was slapped in the face when he went shopping with his lover.

"This is impossible,"

Chen Jiayi shook her head, her face still a little red and swollen:

"The supplementary card my mom gave me has no limit, and I've never overdrawn, so it's impossible to deactivate it."

The original owner had indeed never restricted Chen Jiayi's spending, which also made Chen Jiayi really have no idea about money-related matters.

"Do you mean I'm lying to you?" Ou Jiabao's face looked a little ugly again.

He hoped more than anyone else that this was just an accident, but the fact was that he had been slapped in the face twice and didn't want it to happen again.

"What about my card?" Chen Jiayi asked, remembering it.

"Isn't my card with you? There should still be money in it."

She could empathize with Ou Jiabao's predicament and felt that he had indeed been wronged this time. But she still felt something was wrong, so she asked another question.

"There's only a little over a hundred yuan left on your card," Ou Jiabao said gritting his teeth.

"This is impossible."

Chen Jiayi still shook her head. No matter how little she knew about money, she vaguely remembered that there were at least tens of thousands of yuan on her card.

Because Lin Ruchu used to deposit 10,000 yuan of pocket money into her card on time every month, but she hadn't used that card for a long time, and had always used the secondary card.

So even if her mother didn't transfer money into the card later, there couldn't be only a little over a hundred yuan in the card.

After she said that, Ou Jiabao felt a little guilty.

Wasn't that the last time he bought Xueli a bag and clothes, spending tens of thousands of yuan? But he wasn't to blame that time; it was Chen Jiayi who hit Xueli first, and he was just apologizing.

But it was not appropriate to say this at this time. He could only say:

"It's really only a little over a hundred. How could I lie to you? Think about it and confirm with Aunt Lin as soon as possible to find out what's going on."

Ou Jiabao used the best tone he had used to treat Chen Jiayi during this period, and he coaxed her:

"I know this house is small and shabby, and it's unfair to you. So I've tried not to stay at home these days, just to make life more comfortable for you and mom."

"I'm a grown man and I'm fine with living anywhere, even under an overpass for a few nights. But it's hard to believe you and the child will have to suffer in the future."

"So I lost control of my temper and hit you. I was wrong. Xiaoyi, please don't be angry with me, okay..."

When Chen Jiayi heard what Ou Jiabao said, all her resentment disappeared immediately.

She wondered why Jiabao had lost his temper with her for no apparent reason. It turned out there was a reason. Furthermore, he had thought so much about her, yet she still secretly blamed him in her heart. It was truly wrong.

Think about it, Jiabao has such a strong sense of self-esteem and has never asked anyone for help in all these years. But now he is forced to stay outside every day and be ridiculed for swiping his card. How sad he must be.

Thinking of this, Chen Jiayi made up her mind to go home as soon as possible and find Lin Ruchu to resolve everything so that Jiabao would never suffer such grievances again.

That night, the couple put aside their past grudges and made peace. For the first time, Ou Jiabao stayed in the dilapidated house and slept there for one night.

The next morning, Chen Jiayi wanted to go home after breakfast. Unfortunately, her stomach started to hurt before she even left the house. She'd been so upset the previous day, and it must have been a miscarriage.

Chen Fang and Ou Jiabao had to send her to the hospital first.

The trauma wasn't serious, but the pregnancy was preserved for three days. The female doctor at the clinic criticized Ou Jiabao seriously:

"The pregnant woman's physical condition is not very good, and she is still young. Logically, she shouldn't be pregnant so early."

"Now that you're pregnant, you have to be extra careful and try not to get into any bumps or bruises in your life. Otherwise, if you have a miscarriage, it's very likely to cause lifelong infertility."

"As family members, you must pay special attention to and protect the physical and mental health of pregnant women..."

She had worked in the hospital for so many years and had seen so much. Most of Chen Jiayi's injuries were soft tissue contusions, and she knew how they came about at a glance.

It’s just that it’s not easy to say it too bluntly, so I just said a few words in a light tone.

Ou Jiabao's face looked unhappy, and it was unclear whether he understood or not. Anyway, he just nodded with a cold face.

Instead, Chen Jiayi was a little unhappy.

"Doctor Zhang, please stop talking about my husband."

"I accidentally bumped into something while walking. It has nothing to do with him. I will be more careful next time."

She didn't like outsiders interfering in their marital affairs. Jiabao had just suffered such a great injustice, and she didn't want him to be blamed by others when he came here.

Doctor Zhang rolled his eyes:

"Okay, excuse me for being nosy. Just be happy."

She closed the notebook with a snap:

"Then ask your husband to come upstairs and settle the expenses for the past few days, and you can be discharged from the hospital."

After saying that, he turned around and left with the two interns beside him. As he walked, he taught the students:

"Remember this from now on. If you encounter this kind of situation again... don't be too kind..."

Chen Jiayi: “…”

When Ou Jiabao heard the word "pay", his forehead twitched. He turned to Chen Fang:

"Mom, give me your phone."

Chen Fang asked, "Son, what are you doing?"

"Xiaoyi and I have no money left in our cards. How can we pay the bill if we don't use your phone?" Ou Jiabao said unhappily.

Chen Fang didn't want to give it.

She hadn't received any salary in the past few months, but her expenses were quite high, and the little savings she had saved with great difficulty were shrinking rapidly.

Moreover, I had been pushing Chen Jiayi to move out in order to take advantage of her. But after calculating the accounts so far, why did it seem like I had lost out?

But thinking that he would have to rely on Chen Jiayi to ask Lin Ruchu for the house and car, he had to reluctantly take out his phone and hand it over.

"Well, spend it sparingly."

Ou Jiabao took Chen Fang's mobile phone to the cashier, settled Chen Jiayi's hospital expenses, and transferred another 20,000 yuan to his own account.

Then he returned the phone to Chen Fang as if nothing had happened.

After leaving the hospital, Chen Jiayi took a taxi to her former home. Ou Jiabao and his mother decided to go home and wait, as they still had to save face for the time being.

The taxi drove for over half an hour before finally arriving at the villa complex. The moment Chen Jiayi swiped her card and entered the multi-story security booth, she felt a bit dazed.

The park's musical fountains, rockery statues, and brick paths all exuded an air of opulence, every bit of it familiar to her from the past. But now, having not seen them for only a few months, it felt as if she were in another world.

What made her even more confused was that when she arrived at the door of her villa, the password was incorrect no matter how hard she tried.
