Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong

After all, lightning is an act of force majeure.

Although Chen Jiayi is an actor contracted with the theater, she and the theater are also victims and have no obligation to bear all of Chen Jiayi's medical expenses.

If Chen Jiayi really wants to sue her, the Meng family’s legal team will be no pushovers.

The two sides reached a consensus, and Meng Qian quickly transferred 64 yuan. However, she also said at the end: "The performance contract is terminated. Come to the theater tomorrow to handle the formalities."

Chen Jiayi paid the other half of the fee, then used her good hand to pack up her things with difficulty and prepared to be discharged from the hospital.

The little money left in her card was not enough to cover the cost of subsequent treatment.

The doctor told her that because the burn area only accounted for 2.5% of the body, the preliminary judgment was that the possibility of further infection or systemic complications was low.

Of course, this possibility cannot be completely ruled out.

So it is okay to be discharged temporarily. But if you feel any discomfort, you must visit the doctor again in time.

As for amputation, skin grafting, or prosthetic limb installation, that is another stage.

That would require a lot of money.

When Chen Jiayi returned home, she saw a cold kitchen.

Ou Jiabao is not here.

On the small coffee table in front of the TV, there were takeout boxes that had been eaten but not thrown away in the past few days, emitting an unpleasant smell.

Chen Jiayi frowned. Chen Fang was not such a sloppy person before...

At this time, she was probably browsing her cell phone in her room, with the volume turned up very loud, and bursts of unbridled laughter could be heard from time to time.

This scene made her feel dazed for a moment:

Is this the life she wants?

This is her home...

The people closest to her should have been in the room, but at this moment they all surrounded her.

I took her bag, helped her change into slippers, asked her if she felt any pain, if she was hungry, if she had any money left in her card, where she wanted to go on vacation, and if there was any gift she wanted recently...

For a moment, Lin Ruchu's face flashed through Chen Jiayi's mind.

And those scenes where he had cared about her in the past, and she deeply hated him and was eager to get rid of him...

Shaking his head, Chen Jiayi's mind became clearer.

Yes, this is the life she chose. Here she has her beloved brother Jiabao, and Aunt Chen who loves her like her own daughter, isn’t it?

What does a little material wealth mean? Love is priceless. She is not wrong.

Chen Jiayi walked into the house quietly, threw the takeout boxes into the trash can first, and then knocked on the door and entered Chen Fang's house.

"mom……"

"Oh, it's Xiaoyi back." Chen Fang was watching a funny video, and her mood was interrupted. She was obviously unnatural for a moment, and her expression was a little guilty.

"Why did you come back so suddenly? You didn't even tell me in advance so I could pick you up from the hospital."

It was as if Chen Jiayi had never called her phone so many times. But the phone was in her hand at that moment, so it would be a bit too false to say that she didn't hear or see it.

So at this moment Chen Fang's expression was a little embarrassed, and she quickly changed the subject to divert attention:

"Xiaoyi, go back to your room and have a good rest. Jiabao has been called away by his friends. He will probably be back in the evening."

She gave Chen Jiayi a fake smile:

"How about I call Jiabao right now and ask him to come back early to accompany you?"

Chen Fang probably didn't know that Chen Jiayi had called Ou Jiabao before but no one answered. Otherwise, this change of topic would have been even more awkward.

But Chen Jiayi seemed unaware.

She smiled and said, "No need, Mom. It's rare for Jiabao to be willing to go out for some fresh air, so don't disturb him."

"By the way, Mom, what are we going to eat tonight? How about I go out and buy some food..."

Ou Jiabao didn't come back until after dinner.

The mother and daughter sat on the sofa and chatted.

After all, the dishes were bought by Chen Jiayi, and Chen Fang felt a little guilty, so she took the initiative to cook. Chen Jiayi was satisfied to eat the ready-made meal.

Look, she is being taken care of again.

"Xiaoyi, how much did your hospitalization cost this time..." Seeing that the atmosphere was getting better, Chen Fang began to inquire about Chen Jiayi's financial situation in a roundabout way.

When she heard that it cost 64, Chen Fang felt a pang of pain and somewhat regretted not asking Chen Jiayi for some money a while ago.

She thought that talk show couldn't make much money.

"Well, Xiaoyi, it's not that mom is nosy,"

Chen Fang spoke cautiously, "You know our family's financial situation isn't good. Ever since the day you married Jiabao, I knew I had wronged you."

"But you were healthy before, and we could always get by, so I wouldn't say that. But look at the situation our family is in now..."

"I'm not in good health, and they don't want me to work here anymore. Jiabao has always felt that his talent is not appreciated, and now you're injured."

Seeing Chen Jiayi still looking puzzled, she took a breath and said:

"What Mom means is that you should talk to your wife. Just because you have a younger daughter doesn't mean you can completely ignore your older daughter."

"My two daughters' lives are going to be pretty much the same. I can't treat the younger one like a treasure and the older one like a weed. Otherwise, those people online will start making irresponsible comments again..."

"Also, judging by the online reports about your wife, she seems to be doing well. Maybe there's still some money left from the sale of the company, and perhaps some of it could belong to you."

"Mom said this for your own good and your mom's good, don't you think so?

Chen Jiayi's confused brain seemed to be suddenly enlightened by these words.

Yes, they sold the company, the house, and the car. Her mother said the money was gone, but who would believe that? Maybe there was a lot left, and some of it might even have belonged to her father, which would have been hers.

Why did her mother take it all?

She could have just as easily asked her mother for the money. If her mother disagreed, she could have gone online to complain, considering her reputation was already like that.

There is no need to worry about anything.

And her mother now has a new family, so she has more to worry about.

The most important thing is that now that she and Meng Qian have terminated their contract, the family has completely lost its source of income, and her hand still needs treatment, which requires money.

The next morning, she called Lin Ruchu.

Lin Ruchu smiled when she heard what she meant.

What about the heroine? She thought she would be so strong-willed, but she asked for money so soon.

"First of all, you are an adult now. I have no obligation to support you. Besides, you haven't forgotten the agreement we signed, have you?"

She said in a cold voice:

"Also, now that you have your own family, shouldn't you ask your good husband and mother-in-law for money if you need it?"

Chen Jiayi was speechless.

But she managed to refute: "My father couldn't have left me no money. All that is mine."

"Your father may have left some money, but we didn't take a penny with us when we left the Chen family."

Lin Ruchu said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask the Chen family. You're the Chen family's granddaughter, so maybe you can get a share."

After saying that, she hung up the phone, deleted the message and blocked it all.

When the original owner and Chen Jiayi were kicked out, the Chen family really didn't give them a penny. For many years, the original owner had been using her dowry and the money she earned to support Chen Jiayi.

But after Chen Jiayi became famous in her previous life, the Chen family found Chen Jiayi and said that it was the original owner who forcibly took her away from the Chen family and separated her from her flesh and blood.
