After I Became Famous, the CEO Wants Remarriage
Chapter 248 - Chapter 248 Chapter 248 This Girl is Selling Herself

Chapter 248: Chapter 248: This Girl is Selling Herself! Chapter 248: Chapter 248: This Girl is Selling Herself! Within seconds of receiving the message, he replied immediately.

“My eyes are useless, might as well donate them to someone in need, they have no taste at all!”

Mu Bailang, “?”

Come on, now he’s the one with no taste?

“Are you this upset because it was a gift from your ex-sister-in-law?”

Li Lingyang saw the words “ex-sister-in-law” and felt slightly displeased.

He’d get rid of the “ex” sooner or later…

“Is there a problem?”

“No, no, no, I wish that you’ll achieve your heart’s desires soon.”

Of course!

He’d win Ning Yichu over sooner or later!

Li Lingyang slightly curved his thin lips, showing a handsome smile.

…

Li Lingyang thought Ning Yichu would see his post on social media and would give him some response, even if it was to mock his bragging; however, he didn’t know that Ning Yichu and Fan YuKe were busy looking for a special medication, and hadn’t checked social media at all.

In the early morning, after finishing his workout, he came downstairs just to see Doudou and Chengcheng eating breakfast.

As soon as Chengcheng saw him, he looked like he had something to say but hesitated.

These past few days, not seeing Shen Jiangqing was one thing!

Now, he couldn’t even get in touch with her through calls or texts…

Moreover, whenever Su Huimiao came to visit, she always deliberately avoided mentioning Shen Jiangqing.

Chengcheng suddenly felt something was wrong, sensing there was something he didn’t know.

Li Lingyang could see right through his little thoughts and, having decided to pursue Ning Yichu, he felt he should give him a heads-up.

“Chengcheng, if a person makes a mistake, they must take responsibility.”

Chengcheng’s eyes trembled, “Daddy, I’ve been very good recently.”

“I’m not talking about you, it’s about your mom… She has made a serious mistake recently and might not be able to see you for a long time, you should prepare yourself mentally.”

Chengcheng suddenly felt a pang in his heart.

He knew Shen Jiangqing wouldn’t just disappear without a reason!

Could it be that her plan failed…

Then wouldn’t Ning Yichu soon become his stepmom?

His eyebrows instantly furrowed tightly, “Daddy, even if mommy makes mistakes, she’s still the woman who gave birth to your children…”

“Chengcheng, are you questioning Daddy’s decision?” Li Lingyang looked into his eyes and asked.

Chengcheng clenched his lower lip and fell silent.

Li Lingyang sighed internally, for the first time doubting whether he should have let Shen Jiangqing have children back then?

Indeed, children without mothers are pitiful.

His tone softened, “In the future, having just Daddy will be enough, I will love you even more than Mommy.”

Upon hearing this, Chengcheng knew it would be difficult to see Shen Jiangqing again.

A surge of resentment filled his heart, yet he couldn’t say more; instead, he subtly kicked Doudou under the table.

Hoping she would speak up on their behalf.

However, Doudou didn’t seem to care, continuing to eat her sandwich, her head bowed.

Chengcheng was almost furious, this ungrateful brat…

…

Although they had contact information, it didn’t mean they could get in touch!

But Ning Yichu had found out that President Wang had three treatment courses of the special medication!

So, they must get in touch with him!

The next day, Ning Yichu went straight to find Fan Yuke.

She had already liaised with someone who knew President Wang, so he should answer the phone, but…

“Yuke, my friend doesn’t know President Wang well, but I asked him to inquire a bit, and apparently, President Wang is notoriously greedy and difficult in the industry, and getting that medicine might be challenging…”

Fan Yuke was taken aback but then spoke, “It doesn’t matter, as long as it can save my mother, no matter how hard it is, I want to try!”

Ning Yichu then shared some more information about President Wang with Fan Yuke.

After making sure there was no problem, Fan Yuke contacted him.

“Hello, who is this?” President Wang, annoyed, suddenly received a call from an unknown number.

“Hello, President Wang, I heard from a friend that your lab recently…”

Fan Yuke had barely begun her rehearsed speech when President Wang interrupted her.

“Are you here to buy the gastric cancer cure?”

Fan Yuke was momentarily startled and hurriedly responded, “Yes…”

These days, President Wang frequently received various unexpected calls because of this batch of special medicine; it had become routine for him.

He cut to the chase, “How much will you pay?”

Fan Yuke hesitated, “How much do you want?”

President Wang said, “A flat rate, thirty million for three treatment cycles, not a penny less!”

“That expensive?” Fan Yuke’s eyes widened.

She thought the medicine might cost a million at most but never expected it to be tens of millions.

Although it was a special medicine, the price was outrageously high!

She finally understood why Dr. Xu had said this medicine was unaffordable for ordinary people…

It seemed like President Wang noticed her shock and added, “Sis, I won’t lie to you, there are dozens of customers like you who want this medicine from me. It’s a rare commodity, so it’s normal for the price to be driven up. If you have the means, come and get it; if not, don’t waste my time doing business!”

Fan Yuke tried to leverage Ning Yichu’s friend’s connection, but President Wang, already used to such tactics, bluntly said, “No amount of money or influential connections can make up for being broke,” and, with a snap, hung up the phone.

Fan Yuke stared at the now dark screen, squeezing it hard, her face turning extremely grim.

She didn’t have much savings, just about two million, far from the exorbitant price of thirty million for the special medicine…

Ning Yichu, who had been by her side all along, had heard the conversation and clenched her teeth, “Yuke, don’t worry, I’ll figure out a way to help you gather the money.”

If it really comes to it, she might just perform more surgeries under her Majesty Doctor identity…

Fan Yuke knew her best friend meant well, but Ning Yichu had just compensated Shen Jiangqing with twenty million for a necklace, and now she didn’t have any spare cash either; Fan Yuke felt embarrassed to bother her once again.

Besides, President Wang wanted thirty million, not three hundred…

There was no way Ning Yichu could gather this sum in such a short time.

Just then, Fan Yuke thought of the deal Mu Bailang had mentioned the other day, her expression changing rapidly.

But out of concern that Ning Yichu would worry, she pretended to be casual, “Oh, how could I forget about her?”

“Who?” Ning Yichu asked, surprised.

Fan Yuke feigned annoyance, “My agent, you have no idea, she has been milking me for years; she must have quite some money by now. Now that I’m in trouble, I could ask her to bleed a bit…”

Hearing this, Ning Yichu still felt uneasy.

“Isn’t your agent always skimming off the top? She would lend you money?”

“She wouldn’t have before, but now that I’ve had a scandal with Mu Bailang, think about it–the increased visibility and value, how much more it must be compared to before? Maybe she would actually be willing to invest in me now!”

Fan Yuke then added with a laugh, “Of course, if she refuses to lend me the money, I’ll come back to you for ideas.”

“Then you should try first.”

If it really doesn’t work out…

She might just have to perform some high-risk surgeries.

But the higher the cost of the surgery, the greater the risk…

If something went wrong and the patient didn’t make it, that could bring trouble for her and the children!

But she couldn’t worry about that now!

Mrs. Fan’s condition couldn’t be delayed, so after splitting up from Ning Yichu, Fan Yuke rushed to Shengshi Company.
