Your Daughter Is Only Worth Fifty Thousand?
Half an hour later, Xia Bing, who had been unconscious on the hospital bed, finally woke up. When she saw Wang Xiuhee, she was surprised and feeling weak. She said, "Grandpa Wang, did you save me again?"
Seeing Xia Bing wake up, Tang Yu and the others heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that the treatment had worked. It had been effective.
Wang Xintong sat by the bed and smiled as she looked at Xia Bing.
Wang Xiuhee shook his head and said, "This time, it is fortunate that Young Friend Tang Yu was here. If not for his timely treatment, I'm afraid you would have been in danger right now."
Thinking of his granddaughter's recklessness, Wang Xiuhee broke out in a cold sweat in his heart.
Xia Bing noticed Tang Yu standing next to her. Her eyes couldn't help but light up. When she thought of the things that happened between her and Tang Yu, she became extremely shy. Xia Bing struggled to get up and lightly opened her mouth to say, "So your ame is Tang Yu. Thank you..."
Tang Yu smiled and said, "It's fine. This is just a small matter. Helping others is a pleasure in the traditional values of Xia Country. Don't worry about it."
Hearing this, Wang Xiuhee was pleased. Tang Yu was not only brilliant in medical skills, but also had excellent moral character. He was an outstanding kid!
Xia Bing was now out of danger and everyone was more relaxed. Hu Desheng opened the door of the operating theater.
The moment the door of the operating theater opened, a middle-aged man in a black suit rushed in. He sported a determined look on his. He asked the director anxiously, "Director Wang, how is my daughter?"
"Don't worry, I have cured her," Wang Xiuhee said with a smile.
"Dad, you came to the hospital?" Xia Bing looked at the middle-aged man in front of her and asked him with a weak smile.
Seeing that his daughter was fine, Xia Wentao heaved a sigh of relief.
He was been working overtime to review some documents, but upon hearing that his daughter was in trouble, he had rushed over frantically. However, he had been stuck in the worst traffic jam. He had only just arrived and was very anxious to see her.
Fortunately, his daughter was fine and rescued!
"Director Wang, thank you very much. If it wasn't for you, Bingbing would have been in danger," Xia Wentao said. "I will ask the company to sponsor Central Hospital with three million yuan to purchase any required advanced equipment."
Wang Xiuhee shook his head helplessly and said, "Wentao, it really wasn't to my credit this time. It was all because of Young Friend Tang Yu here. He was the one who saved your daughter in the lake, and it was also he who gave us a better suggestion for treatment. You should thank him!"
The old lady standing at the door of the ward also hurriedly said, "The young man is brilliant. He saved this little girl in the water and even performed artificial respiration on her. He ignored the danger to his life and sucked out the snake venom from her body..."
"Hm?"
Hearing this, Xia Wentao frowned slightly. It was only at this moment that he carefully sized up the young man in front of him whom he had previously overlooked.
Tang Yu had a delicate face. He had short hair and thick eyebrows. Although his eyes were not big, they were spirited. However, he was shabbily dressed. With just a glance, Xia Wentao could tell that he was just a poor kid.
A figure like him simply didn't have the stature to speak to Xia Wentao. However, this young man had saved his daughter. Xia Wentao was still somewhat grateful to him, but he did not really believe what Wang Xiuhee said.
He was well aware that there was a group of people who had been plotting against Xia Wentao lately. Those people must have wanted to mess with him by putting his daughter in danger, so he was doubtful of Tang Yu's identity. He felt that it was very likely that Tang Yu was deliberately getting close to his daughter to attack her!
Xia Wentao made up his mind and looked at Tang Yu. He said condescendingly, "Young man, you jumped into the water and saved my daughter. I am very grateful. I have fifty thousand yuan as a gift for you."
Looking at Xia Wentao's rude and unreasonable attitude, Tang Yu felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He said, "I saved your daughter because I was conveniently nearby. I do not want to ask for any monetary reward from you."
As expected! If he didn't want monetary compensation, wouldn't that prove that he had other intentions toward his daughter?
Xia Wentao sneered and said, "Take the money and leave quickly. From now on, we won't have anything to do with you. Don't get any improper thoughts about my daughter. You are not worthy of her. Don't delude yourself."
"Dad, what are you talking about?" Xia Bing felt anxious and gave Xia Wentao a look.
Xia Bing was very grateful to Tang Yu.
Not only did Tang Yu jump into the water without hesitation to save her, but he also sucked out the snake's poison from her body. He did not care for his own safety at all. In Tang Yu's sincere gaze she did not see any trace of filth, nor did she feel any bad vibes about him.
She was very grateful to Tang Yu. How could her father say all this? It was too much!
However, Xia Wentao did not care what Xia Bing thought. He did what he wanted to do. He had been rolling around in the business world for so many years and had seen a lot of things. Xia Wentao's daughter was beautiful and Xia Wentao was wealthy. There would always be some people who were delusional enough to believe they can get close to them.
He needed to say cruel words to prevent Tang Yu from getting ill-advised thoughts.
Hearing this, Tang Yu's face instantly turned cold. He stared into Xia Wentao's eyes and said fearlessly, "Are you very rich?"
Suddenly a bodyguard behind Xia Wentao sneered and said, "Of course. President Xia is the richest man in Moon City. Of course he has a lot of money!"
"Oh, I see. He is indeed quite rich." A trace of disgust flashed across Tang Yu's eyes. He said faintly, "But your precious daughter's life is only worth fifty thousand yuan to you?"
"Humph, Miss Xia Bing is the apple of his eye. How can she only be worth fifty thousand yuan? She is a priceless treasure!" the bodyguard said with disdain, seemingly not understanding the meaning behind Tang Yu's words.
"Han Feng, enough."
Xia Wentao stretched out his hand to stop his bodyguard from talking. He stared at Tang Yu and suddenly smiled. He said sarcastically, "Young man, what are you trying to say? If the money is not satisfactory, we can talk about it. You don't need to use tricks. One hundred thousand yuan. That should last you for three years, am I right?"
"So your daughter's life is only worth one hundred thousand?" Tang Yu was disappointed. He looked at Xia Wentao with a face full of contempt.
A wave of silent fury rose in Tang Yu's heart.
Feeling Tang Yu's gaze, Xia Wentao felt a wave of discomfort inside. He was a reknown figure and was being mocked by this beggar kid!
"My daughter is priceless to me. What are you trying to say? Who even are you? Why did you deliberately approach my daughter?" Looking at Tang Yu coldly, Xia Wentao asked him in a stern voice, as if he was ready to draw a sword at any moment.
Xia Wentao was trying to test him. If Tang Yu really had an ulterior motive for his daughter, then he would betray himself.
"Deliberately approach your daughter? Do you think your daughter is some fairy who has descended into the mortal world? That anyone would be captivated by her?"
Tang Yu was so angry that he started laughing. He didn't care who Xia Wentao was. He retorted angrily, "Since your daughter's life is so priceless, I can ask for any amount of money, don't you think? One hundred billion. Give me that money and I'll leave immediately. I'll run in the other direction if I see you anytime in future. What do you think? You have a lot of money, don't you? One hundred billion, give it to me!"
"Young man, don't be so impudent!"
Xia Wentao was really angry now. Ignoring the pulling from his daughter, he went directly to stand in front of Tang Yu. He took out a cheque from his pocket and threw it into Tang Yu's arms. He said condescendingly, "One million yuan. Take the money and leave immediately. Don't ever appear in front of me again!"
Xia Wentao was very angry. A poor kid asked for one hundred billion yuan from him. Did he really think Xia Wentao was an idiot? If the boy had not saved his daughter, he would have asked his bodyguards to throw him out long ago!
Seeing Tang Yu stare blankly at the one million yuan cheque that Xia Wentao threw at him, the latter sneered.
"Hmm. You are indeed a poor person. You're still pretending to have integrity in front of me. In the end, you just don't have enough money. Why are you so starstruck looking at this amount of money? You useless piece of trash, you won't be able to earn this much even if you worked for the rest of your life!"
Xia Wentao crossed his arms over his chest and stood on his tiptoes, looking at Tang Yu with disdain. Even if this guy wasn't trying to get close to his daughter, he was still coveting his money!
He knew that there was no one in the world who didn't care about money. The people who claimed to have integrity were just those who were poor! Xia Wentao wanted his daughter see that his judgment was correct. He was absolutely right in saying what he said.
