After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

Although Zhao Lianmai's salary was less than ten thousand, which was already quite high, a small surgery at the hospital could easily deplete it.

Xu Musen looked at the pale-faced middle-aged woman and the little girl lying beside the bed. This scene was reminiscent of a day years ago when they waited at the hospital.

After several glances, Xu Musen silently turned around and left.

...

At the hospital payment counter.

Zhao Lianmai looked at the bill, quietly took out an old wallet wrapped tightly from her pocket, which barely had any money left, and counted it over and over again.

In the end, she took out almost all of her money and handed it over to the staff.

The nurse recognized Zhao Lianmai, counted the money, and said, "This amount of money will only cover hospital observation, and some medicines can't be provided to you. Your mother needs surgery as soon as possible, and at least the special medicine must be continued."

The nurse, also feeling pity, could only sigh.

The remaining treatment with special medicine would cost at least ten or twenty thousand.

"I understand, thank you."

Zhao Lianmai nodded her head in thanks.

She looked at her shriveled wallet, which only contained just enough change to afford a meal.

She turned and left.

"What a good girl..."

The nurse sighed watching her leave, secured the money, and turned to pick up a pen to sign.

But when she turned back around, she found a young man standing in front of her, looking at the bill on the desk.

"Hello, is there anything you need to process?"

"No, it's okay now."

Xu Musen smiled, turned around, and left.

"Strange..." The nurse watched him go and resumed her work.

...

It was nearly mealtime.

Zhao Lianmai went outside to buy some boxed meals from a street stall.

There were ones for five, eight, or ten yuan.

The more expensive ones contained a bit of meat.

Zhao Lianmai checked her wallet, took out a twenty-yuan note, and another two yuan.

"How much are you getting?" The stall owner, looking at the money she gave, asked.

"Two ten-yuan meals, and with these two yuan, could you just give me some extra rice without the vegetables?"

Zhao Lianmai asked softly.

The owner was taken aback, "Girl, without vegetables..."

At this, the owner's wife came over, nudged her husband, and said with a smile, "Alright alright, I'll get it for you."

The owner's wife added quite a bit of meat to the two ten-yuan lunch boxes.

For the box that was supposed to just have rice, she still drizzled a layer of meat sauce on top.

"Girl, here's your food. The rice is a bit hard, but it'll taste good with the sauce. Don't mind it, okay?" The owner's wife said with a smile as she handed over the boxes.

Zhao Lianmai, holding the boxed meals, gave the owner's wife a slight bow, "Thank you."

After Zhao Lianmai left,

The owner's wife sighed with a hint of concern.

"Our daughter is about her age, too; it's really not easy for her..."

...

When Zhao Lianmai returned to the hospital room and was about to push open the door, another tall figure appeared in front of her.

She turned her head and saw Xu Musen again in front of her, holding a bag of fruit and nutritional supplements.

"You…"

Zhao Lianmai paused.

"Well, since you're my employee, it's only right for a boss to be concerned about the family of his staff," Xu Musen said with a gentle smile.

"You don't have to do this," Zhao Lianmai said, momentarily dazed by his smile.

"I'm already here, let's not talk about employee and boss; aren't we also classmates?"

Xu Musen said, and without further ado, he turned the doorknob of the hospital room.

Zhao Lianmai watched his tall figure, bit her lip, and followed him in.

"Sister, you..."

The little girl lifted her head but saw Xu Musen and suddenly became too shy to speak.

The middle-aged woman on the bed also propped herself up to look at the stranger in front of her: "Who are you?"

"Hello, Auntie, my name is Xu Musen. I'm a classmate of Zhao Lianmai, and we're from Zheng City. I heard you weren't feeling well and came to visit you," Xu Musen said with a smile as he introduced himself and casually placed the fruits and supplements on the bedside cabinet.

"Xiao Mai's classmate?"

The woman's face was pale as she looked at her daughter.

Zhao Lianmai approached, placed the boxed meals she had brought, and said, "Yes, he's... the boss of the part-time job I mentioned at school."

Upon hearing this, the woman suddenly understood and took another careful look at Xu Musen.

Some time ago, her daughter had sent home quite a bit of money, claiming it was from a part-time job.

At first, she had been worried about what her daughter might have done to earn so much money in a month.

Not to mention a part-time job, even graduates from distinguished universities entering big companies might not make ten thousand in a month.

She had always been apprehensive that her daughter might have done something demeaning because of their family's situation.

But now, seeing the handsome young man before her, her worries faded considerably.

"So you are the boss Xiao Mai mentioned, I did not expect you to be so young. Please, have a seat..."

The woman tried to get up, but the young girl by her side hurried over to help her.

"It's okay, Auntie, you should rest," Xu Musen said, pulling over a stool to sit on.

The woman looked at Xu Musen again, "A few days ago Xiao Mai told me she had a part-time job at school and made a good sum of money. I want to thank you on behalf of Xiao Mai."

"If anyone should be thanked, it's me who should thank Xiao Mai. When my company had just started, she helped me run around for business. The hardest working and most responsible person in the company was her. When the company is more stable, I will not let her efforts go unrewarded," Xu Musen said, while Zhao Lianmai stood quietly beside them, her gaze shifting as she listened to his words.
