"You knew I was afraid, so why did you take me to get a puncture?"

"Anzhou only diagnosed you with anemia. I suspect it was a misdiagnosis, so I asked Dr. Lin to re-examine you. He suspects you have multiple myeloma." Gu Zhen was not the type to conceal things. Although it was bad news, he did not deliberately hide it.

Su Lingzhi was surprised, but rejected it flatly, "How is that possible? You are making a fuss out of nothing. I am just anemic."

"Then can you give me a checkup to put my mind at ease?"

"No." Su Lingzhi refused. What she didn't tell Gu Zhen was that she almost suffocated in the hospital just now. Seven or eight doctors surrounded her and explained bone biopsy. Her head was buzzing and she couldn't breathe. All she could think of was the very long needle piercing into her bones. She seemed to hear her own screams. Fear filled her body and mind. She just wanted to run away. "I'm not sick!"

Whether she is afraid of seeing a doctor or is paranoid and stubborn, she just feels that she is not sick!

Even if you are sick, it is a punishment from the system.

Because she refused to kill Gu Zhen and was attached to him, this was a short drama world, either she would die or he would die, terminal illness... were all tricks of the system.

After Gu Zhen died, she recovered.

"You are not a doctor, how can you judge that you are not sick? Su Lingzhi, let's have a check-up. I have anesthesia, so it won't hurt. If you are afraid, just blindfold your eyes and don't look at anything. I will hold your hand and accompany you all the time." Gu Zhen said all the nice things and also gave a solution.

Su Lingzhi was stubborn and refused to change his mind. “No!”

Gu Zhen took a deep breath and glared at her angrily. Su Lingzhi looked at him straight in the eye, stubborn and paranoid. Their daily roles were reversed.

"Whatever you want!" Gu Zhen also got angry and slammed the door and left.

As soon as he left, Su Lingzhi took a deep breath. There was no sign of grievance or accusation on her face. Instead, she was cold and calm. She lifted the quilt and walked to the balcony.

The river view during the day is very tasteless, tasteless and a pity to throw away. Only the warm wind keeps blowing into the balcony.

Gu Zhen compromised more easily than she thought. She had even prepared to cry, make a fuss, and even commit suicide. But in the end, she won in the crying stage, and her acting skills were not fully utilized.

She felt that Gu Zhen was a man with extremely clear goals. There was no way he would cancel the bone marrow puncture just because of her resistance. He might even drug her and send her directly to the operating table. His desire for control was so terrifying, and he would do whatever it took to get what he wanted.

In fact, this is what Gu Zhen planned!

As he said, if soft tactics don't work, he will use hard tactics. He will make Su Lingzhi go for a check-up and get treatment as soon as possible if he is ill. There should be no delay.

It is not a terminal illness and it can be cured if it is discovered and treated early. Otherwise, if it is left untreated until the late stage, there will be no cure.

He called Xu Fei to prepare the medicine, but found that Su Lingzhi had run away. She packed some clothes and ran away while he was on the phone in the study!

Gu Zhen gritted his teeth, "...Good job!"

In the taxi, Su Lingzhi saw the caller ID and hung up. Gu Zhen sent a message.

Gu Zhen: Answer the phone!

Su Lingzhi turned a blind eye and didn't have the courage to block him.

Gu Zhen: Su Lingzhi, you can't even leave Jiangcheng without my permission. The plane ticket you just bought has been cancelled.

Su Lingzhi, "...Fuck!"

The boss was indeed omnipotent. He could even cancel her flight. What's wrong with her wanting to go out and have fun during the National Day holiday? What's wrong? She just wanted to go to an island for a vacation.

The next second, the airline sent a message saying that the plane was grounded due to weather reasons.

Su Lingzhi was on the way to the airport. Looking at the sunny sky, he was speechless. The excuses given by Air China were so perfunctory!

"Master, let's turn around and not go to the airport." Su Lingzhi was also helpless. He gave the master an address, and the driver got off the overpass and drove back to the city.

Su Lingzhi came to Jinhua Ballroom. For some reason, she wanted to visit the place where the original owner lived and grew up. She put on a dust mask and a hat and pretended to be a stranger.

This is a very old street. Jiangcheng is developing very rapidly, with tall buildings rising from the ground, bright lights and wine, and prosperity and luxury. Jinhua Ballroom is located in the bustling center of the old neighborhood, with the financial center in front of it. The red plaque is particularly eye-catching, and the lights are on during the day, sparkling.

There were several young girls playing cards under the sycamore tree in front of the dance hall. They were wearing fashionable and beautiful dresses, with exquisite makeup, and enjoying the sunshine under the shade of the tree.

This scene is strange yet familiar, as if I have seen it in a dream.

She saw Chen Chunhua coming out of the dance hall, cracking melon seeds, pointing at the girls and cursing them, saying that they were wasting their time on material things. They should go out to pick up rich men during such a good holiday, instead of playing cards on the street and wasting their youth. They should dress up beautifully to seduce men and make them spend money on them. They should make as much money as possible while they are still young, and it would be best if they could get a house and have a place to live.

The girls retorted that they made a living by their talent and were not selling themselves.

Chen Chunhua was disdainful. A woman’s youth was worth only a few dollars. Once her youth was gone, she couldn’t sell it even if she wanted to.

A girl asked with a smile, Oh, is that you?

Chen Chunhua was so angry that she hit her on the head, but the girl was not a pushover either. She jumped up and kicked her. Chen Chunhua was kicked to the ground and cursed as if she had been scammed, saying it hurt here and there and demanding compensation.

The girl smiled and said, I heard that your daughter is a little princess of a wealthy family. You can go to her to ask for medical expenses. But you are embarrassed to go, so I will go for you!

Chen Chunhua was so scared that she got up and cursed the girl a few times, "Little bitch." The girl was pulled back by her companions and did not fight with Chen Chunhua. Chen Chunhua felt bored and walked towards the alley.

Su Lingzhi was wondering, was she once one of these girls?

She followed Chen Chunhua, not too far away, not too close. She didn't know what she was going to do. Her legs seemed to have their own will.

Two streets away from Jinhua Ballroom is the old neighborhood, where the old Jiangcheng people live. The alleys are dirty and messy, with debris hanging on the poles and puddles on the ground. Outside the windows of the alleys facing the road are clothes drying racks, with all kinds of clothes, quilts, and even private clothes hanging on them. The streets are small and broken, and are piled with debris.

There was an old lady setting up a stall on the roadside, selling corn and sweet potatoes that didn't look fresh. Chen Chunhua asked the price and bought three corns and sweet potatoes, which cost a few dollars. She even owed the old lady two dollars, but the old lady wouldn't let her take them away. Chen Chunhua ignored her, which made Su Lingzhi furious. She must do this often.

After Chen Chunhua left like a robber, Su Lingzhi went to a small shop to buy a popsicle, scanned five hundred yuan from the proprietress, and asked for cash.

She squatted down and pretended to buy corn while she stuffed the money into the old man's rag bag.

"Su Su, why are you here?" Zhao Xuelan's voice broke the silence of the street. Su Lingzhi looked at Zhao Xuelan riding her electric scooter and stopped beside her.
