After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

"A million isn't enough to sway you? Shen Yao, you're too greedy! I'll give you one minute to think about it!"

The middle-aged woman took out a bank card from her wallet and roughly shoved it into Shen Yao's hand.

Shen Yao picked up the card, didn't even glance at it, held it up to her eyes, and snapped it in two.

"Auntie, it's time to go. You can leave now." After saying that, she was about to close the door with her hand.

The middle-aged lady exclaimed "Oh!" in a hurry and tried to force her way in again.

Seeing this, Shen Yao braced herself against the door with one hand and deliberately let the middle-aged lady see her typing the numbers 110 on the dial pad with the other.

"What...what are you going to do?" The middle-aged lady looked nervous and uneasy.

Shen Yao said calmly, "It's nothing. If you force your way in, I'll call the police. I think I can help your Ye Group get into the top 10 trending topics tomorrow."

"You...you really are wicked!" The middle-aged noblewoman pointed at Shen Yao's nose and cursed.

Shen Yao smiled faintly, "Auntie, compared to the despicable things your Ye family has done, I feel like I am a reincarnation of Guanyin."

Despite her resentment, the middle-aged lady left, grumbling and cursing.

She kept her head down as she walked, as if afraid that the surveillance video in the hallway would capture her face clearly.

Shen Yao rolled her eyes and slammed the door shut.

Call ~

Shen Yao slumped to the ground, hugging her knees tightly.

Tears streamed down my face without me even realizing it.

"Dr. Shen, can you come to the hospital now?"

At 9 p.m., Shen Yao received a call from the hospital director.

Shen Yao felt that she had only been working for the company for less than half a year, so she should show a positive work attitude and agreed almost without thinking.

As soon as she got out of the ride-hailing car, the hospital director was already standing at the hospital gate waiting for her.

I was surprised to see that she had come by ride-hailing service.

"Dr. Shen, in our line of work, we often need to come to the hospital on short notice. If you have time, you could buy a car for your convenience."

"Hmm... let's talk about it later."

Shen Yao didn't not want to buy a car; rather, she wanted to save the money for her birth mother, Wang Haiya's, medical treatment.

A decent car for commuting would cost around 10 yuan, which she can't afford right now.

Upon reaching the ward door, the hospital director stopped and gestured for them to enter.

"Dr. Shen, I'm about to go home. I'll leave this patient to you."

"Yes, Dean. Please be careful."

After saying goodbye to the dean, Shen Yao pushed open the door to the ward.

A big boy wearing a baseball cap, who was playing video games on his bed, looked up.

Just as Shen Yao was about to introduce herself, the boy spoke first, "Are you Dr. Shen Yao, the one who performed my surgery?"

Looking at the handsome and sunny face of the boy in front of her, Shen Yao couldn't remember where she had seen him before.

The boy's originally bright and sunny smile gradually faded from his handsome face after he realized that Shen Yao had forgotten about him.

"Dr. Shen, I'm so handsome! How come you can't even remember me!"

After saying that, the boy tossed his phone aside, stretched out his long, straight legs from under the covers, and soon his slender figure was standing in front of Shen Yao.

Shen Yao could clearly sense the boy's unhappiness.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't recall where she had seen the boy before.

After hesitating for a while, she cautiously asked, "Excuse me, I've been quite busy these past few months. May I ask who you are?"

Once the boy realized that Shen Yao had truly forgotten him, he threw his baseball cap to the ground, revealing his flowing long hair, and ripped open his clothes with his slender hands.

On her chest, an ugly wound suddenly appeared in Shen Yao's field of vision.
