Chapter 220: People Like You Deserve a Beating
"Pfft—"
Cai Xiaotang couldn't hold it back and let out a laugh, looking at Lu Qing'er with a face full of mockery, her eyes carrying a hint of derision.
Lu Qing'er was instantly furious.
"Jiang Baobao, what do you mean by that!" she questioned sharply, her teeth clenched tight, her expression looking as if she wished she could tear Jiang Baobao to pieces.
This bitch was doing it on purpose!
To actually dare to humiliate her like this!
Jiang Baobao was unfazed, asking back with a half-smile: "What could I possibly mean? Didn't you ask them to pay for your skirt? I've already given you the money, what else do you want? It just accidentally fell on the ground; it's not like it can't be spent. Why don't you just pick it up?"
As Jiang Baobao spoke, she deliberately took a step back, leaving enough space for her.
Lu Qing'er naturally wouldn't bend down to pick it up.
She shot a look of annoyance at the banknotes on the ground and feigned disdain: "Hmph, it's only ten thousand yuan. This amount of money doesn't even compare to my usual pocket money; just leave it on the ground."
"Suit yourself." Jiang Baobao rolled her eyes at her indifferently, glanced at the old Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Chenghao behind her with her peripheral vision, and then looked at the clinic behind them, her eyes filled with confusion.
Why would the three of them come here together?
There are clearly so many large hospitals in the city center...
She had to ask Grandma, but that tag-along Lu Qing'er definitely wouldn't leave easily...
Jiang Baobao's brows were locked tight, her gaze swept around, and she suddenly saw a cafe not far away.
She instantly had an idea, looked at Lu Qing'er, and said: "Since I'm here, it's a good chance to catch up with Grandma. If there's nothing else, you can go. I'll call a car to send them back later."
"No way!" Lu Qing'er immediately refused, her expression somewhat displeased.
Before leaving the house, Mom had specifically instructed her to keep a close eye on the two of them!
Who knew if Jiang Baobao would take the opportunity to secretly take that old hag and the fool away?
Jiang Baobao knew this would be the result, raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, and simply looked directly at the old Mrs. Jiang.
"Grandma, let's go sit over there for a while."
Jiang Baobao reached out and pointed to the cafe not far away.
Upon hearing this, the old Mrs. Jiang hesitated for a moment, not knowing what Jiang Baobao intended to do.
But Jiang Baobao had already taken her hand and turned to leave.
"Where do you think you're going!" Lu Qing'er, as expected, immediately lifted her feet to follow.
A flash of impatience crossed Jiang Baobao's eyes, and her footsteps came to a sudden halt.
"If you want to follow, you'd better stay away from us. There's no room for you here, and I'm going to take Grandma to a private room. If you're willing to wait, you can just wait outside."
Jiang Baobao's tone was icy, and she turned around to look at Lu Qing'er with an expressionless face.
Lu Qing'er was once again filled with anger.
"By what right..."
"By no right, just by the right that I'm paying for the private room, I have the right to choose who comes in."
Jiang Baobao interrupted Lu Qing'er directly, her expression vaguely impatient.
Lu Qing'er's chest heaved with anger, her eyes glaring fiercely at Jiang Baobao, but she couldn't refute.
When will this bitch Jiang Baobao disappear from the face of the earth!
Mom is really something, just an old hag and a fool, what is there to keep an eye on?
It's just a check-up, yet she had to come in person!
She couldn't be bothered to serve them!
If they have the ability, they should just not go back and roll as far away as possible!
Lu Qing'er finally couldn't take it anymore, shot them a fierce look, turned around, and got into the car without saying a word.
The next second, the car engine started.
The red car disappeared in front of them.
Jiang Baobao watched her drive away, a flash of disdain in her eyes.
The old Mrs. Jiang, however, breathed a sigh of relief, took two steps back, and picked up the cash that had been thrown on the ground earlier.
"You child... you dare to throw money around on the road, aren't you afraid someone will pick it up..."
As the old Mrs. Jiang spoke, she wanted to hand the money to Jiang Baobao.
Jiang Baobao didn't take it, but instead turned the money around and stuffed it back into the old Mrs. Jiang's hand.
"Grandma, keep this money to spend. Remember to hide it well when you get back. If it's not enough, call me again..."
The old Mrs. Jiang was stunned upon hearing this, then immediately waved her hand to refuse: "So much money, how can I just take it? You..."
The old Mrs. Jiang thought of her past attitude toward Jiang Baobao, and her heart felt a mix of emotions.
Jiang Baobao didn't think that much, just firmly placed the money in her hand and whispered, "Please just take it, consider it me taking care of you on behalf of my parents..."
The old Mrs. Jiang's eyes instantly turned red, and she didn't continue to decline.
Jiang Baobao looked at the clinic in front of her with some confusion, pondered for two seconds, and still took the two of them to the cafe not far away.
The few of them found a quiet place to sit down.
Only then did Jiang Baobao hurriedly ask: "Grandma, what kind of place is that clinic? What did Lu Qing'er take you in there to do?"
Upon hearing this, the old Mrs. Jiang sighed: "Nothing much, just a routine check-up every once in a while. Ever since your uncle was discharged from the hospital after the car accident, he has always been seen at this clinic. It's a doctor introduced by the Lu Family."
"Introduced by the Lu Family?"
Jiang Baobao was slightly startled and subconsciously exchanged a look with Cai Xiaotang.
She pondered for two seconds before continuing to ask: "Then... does that doctor seem abnormal in any way? What kind of check-ups did you have done here?"
Upon hearing this, the old Mrs. Jiang frowned, pondered for two seconds, and then shook her head gently: "It doesn't seem like there's anything abnormal. Your uncle is scanned in the machine every time, similar to the machine Xin'ai had last time. Other than that, there's nothing else..."
Jiang Baobao asked again: "Then what did the doctor say after the check-up today?"
Old Madam Jiang sighed: "What else could they say? It was nothing more than saying your uncle has no issues, but to prevent any changes in his condition, it would be best to go for regular check-ups..."
Old Madam Jiang looked at Jiang Chenghao, who was sitting to the side playing with torn tissues, her expression somewhat weary.
Jiang Baobao also furrowed her brows, feeling vaguely that something was not right.
The Doctor introduced by the Lu Family... there must be some problem with this!
How could they possibly be that kind-hearted?
Jiang Baobao thought for a moment, and a bold idea suddenly surfaced in her mind.
"Grandma, what is the name of the Doctor who is treating Uncle? What does he look like? Can you tell me?"
Old Madam Jiang was taken aback upon hearing this, thought for a moment, and then replied: "I don't know what that Doctor's name is, only that his surname is Li, and he seems to be some kind of expert... As for his appearance... he is not tall, wears black-rimmed glasses, is a bit bald on top, and looks to be about fifty-something years old..."
"Fifty-something... bald..." Jiang Baobao murmured these details, and the figure described by Old Madam Jiang gradually emerged in her mind.
She pondered carefully for a moment longer before saying to Old Madam Jiang: "Grandma, I think there might be something wrong with that Hospital. The Doctor found by the Lu Family has zero credibility with me; I want to... investigate that Hospital in secret."
