This is the first impression of summer. Summer is a person who really dislikes women wearing makeup, but the woman in front of him didn't use much, yet she perfectly highlighted her beauty. A rose is beautiful, but without the green leaves to set it off, its elegance and grandeur would not be evident.
Compared to her, the beauties in TV dramas were completely overshadowed.
This kind of beauty was on a completely different level, and the woman's figure was also perfect. Unlike the female nurse, whose clothes tightly wrapped her body, this woman used her clothes to perfectly showcase her figure.
On her, makeup and clothing were merely accessories.
Not only Summer, but even Doctor Li was staring with wide eyes. However, he quickly regained his composure, lowered his head, and dared not look at the woman: "Mrs. Zeng, you're here."
"Yes, thank you, Doctor Li." Mrs. Zeng's voice was like that of a nightingale, as if it could tug at the soul within a person.
"Mrs. Zeng, it's good that you're here. This student wants to be discharged, but he won't listen to my advice. I was just about to call President Zeng." Doctor Li didn't dare to raise his head; he knew he couldn't directly face her beauty, and they were not on the same level.
Mrs. Zeng was a legendary figure. She entered the business world at the age of eighteen and made the Zeng family's business flourish. She married at twenty-five, but her husband died within half a month. Now, at thirty, she was already at the top of the business world in Jianghai City.
"Why do you want to be discharged when your injuries haven't fully healed?" Zeng Rou looked at Summer with confusion.
"I still have some matters to handle, and I have the college entrance exam in half a month." Summer didn't use his透视功能 (X-ray vision) to look at Mrs. Zeng, as her current attire was already enough to make him unable to resist.
"College entrance exam? Don't go. Stay here and recover properly. Once you're better, I'll arrange for you to attend the best university in Jianghai, and I'll give you a sum of money as a thank you." Zeng Rou's face was expressionless. She wasn't a kind person; rather, she was a ruthless one. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to stand her ground in the business world. In her eyes, everything could be traded. She was genuinely grateful to Summer for saving her daughter, but her way of showing gratitude was to provide the best medical care and a sum of money.
Summer hated it when people tried to talk to him with money. Even his girlfriend left him because of money.
"I don't need it." Summer's face turned cold. Although he had no money, he would never take someone else's. He saved the girl voluntarily, and he would have done it regardless of who she was.
This change in Summer surprised everyone. To others, this was undoubtedly a good thing.
"One million." Zeng Rou saw the change in Summer but didn't believe anyone could resist money. She had seen too many so-called gentlemen, but they all disappointed her in the end. These so-called gentlemen just hadn't been offered enough.
"Hmph!" Summer coldly snorted, turned his head, and continued walking out, neither fast nor slow.
"Two million." Zeng Rou raised the price again, her face showing no emotion.
Summer didn't say anything but walked to the door.
"Five million." Zeng Rou suddenly raised the price to five million. At this moment, Summer stopped and turned around.
Seeing Summer turn around, a hint of disdain appeared on Zeng Rou's face. The female nurse and Doctor Li nodded; in their eyes, no one could refuse Zeng Rou's offer.
"I'll have someone send the money to you, and I'll also arrange for you to attend the best university in Jianghai." Zeng Rou looked confident, thinking that Summer's hesitation was just a way to raise his price.
Summer took a step closer to Zeng Rou. Just as he was in front of her, he suddenly turned to the female nurse: "Can you lend me one hundred yuan? I'll definitely pay you back."
"Uh!" The female nurse was slightly stunned, then took out one hundred yuan.
"Thank you, I'm called Summer." Summer smiled at the female nurse and then turned to leave the ward. The three people in the ward were all stunned, including the beautiful Zeng Rou, who had only guessed the beginning but not the end.
When she saw Summer turn around, she still felt confident, but now she felt that she had failed. Summer turned around not because of the five million but to borrow one hundred yuan from the female nurse. Zeng Rou's face turned red, and she left the ward, as she had never seen someone like Summer before.
"What a strange guy." The female nurse muttered to herself.
After leaving the hospital, Summer directly took a taxi to his cousin's place. Now that he was injured, he couldn't stay at his part-time job location, so he had to return to his cousin's house.
Summer's aunt was very wealthy, and the house was bought for him and his cousin. The house was luxuriously decorated with all kinds of facilities, which was why Summer rarely came back. Although he only earned a little over a thousand yuan a month from his part-time job, it was money he earned himself, and he didn't have to worry about anything when spending it.
When he got home, his cousin wasn't there, but fortunately, the door was password-protected, or he wouldn't have been able to get in. After changing his clothes, he opened the wardrobe. Many of the clothes inside were designer brands, all bought by his cousin, but he had never worn them. The few pieces of clothing at the bottom of the wardrobe were ones he had bought himself, the most expensive of which cost only a little over a hundred yuan, but he felt comfortable wearing them.
He opened a drawer, inside which was a small box. In the box was a blue necklace that emitted a sky-blue light when held in the palm. This was given to him by his father.
"Sky, if one day you encounter a crisis you can't resolve or are seriously injured, wear it. This is what your mother left for you."
These were the words his father said when he gave him the necklace, and he also told him not to wear it unless in an emergency, to take good care of the last thing his mother left behind.
"Father, I'm wearing it today." Summer put the necklace on, and the light on the necklace flashed. Then, he fainted. When he woke up, it was already dark, and he found that all his wounds had disappeared.
It felt like a dream, but he quickly noticed the key point: the light on the necklace had completely disappeared, turning dark blue. His skin felt as if it had shed, and when he rubbed off the skin on his wounds, the wounds were gone.
Summer continued to rub the other wounds, and they all disappeared. The bruised and swollen areas were also completely healed.
"I've only heard of snakes shedding their skin, but now I'm shedding mine. I'll take a shower first." Summer felt the layer of shed skin on his body was disgusting, so he headed to the bathroom.
Just then, the bathroom door opened, and a beautiful woman walked out, wrapped in a towel, almost colliding with Summer.
"Ahh!!" A high-pitched scream rang out.
"What happened? What happened?" Summer's cousin rushed out of her room and, seeing the two people, finally understood what had happened.
"It's okay, Bingxin, don't scream. He's my cousin."
"Summer, when did you come back? I was at home all day, how did I not notice you?" Summer's cousin, Ye Qingsnow, walked over to the girl named Bingxin.
"At home all day?" Summer was slightly stunned and looked at the date on the wall. He had been unconscious for two days.
This meant that everything wasn't a dream. He had indeed saved a little girl, been injured, and hospitalized. The girl's mother offered him five million, which he refused. Most importantly, he had his透视眼 (X-ray vision) and the blue necklace.
Thinking of this, his透视眼 (X-ray vision) activated.
" Winnie the Pooh cartoon." What Summer saw was Bingxin's underwear. This time, he was sure he hadn't seen wrong.
Hearing Summer's words, both women's faces changed.
"Summer, you actually peeped! I'll teach you a lesson." Ye Qingsnow rolled up her sleeves and lunged at Summer. However, Summer was surprised to find that his cousin's movements were so slow, and his eyes focused on the inside of her arm. A mysterious prompt appeared in his mind, as if telling him that attacking there would neutralize her attack.
He, of course, wouldn't do that, so he quickly dodged and entered the bathroom.
This kind of thing couldn't be explained. He knew he had hit the mark, and if he told his cousin he had guessed, she wouldn't believe him. If he said he had X-ray vision, everyone in the world would know, given her personality.
Then he would become a lab rat, to be experimented on.
Inside the bathroom, Summer looked at his necklace. The light on the necklace had completely disappeared. Previously, whenever he picked up the necklace, it would emit a sky-blue light, but now, no matter what he did, it wouldn't glow blue.
"Is it related to my injuries?" Summer immediately realized that he had been injured at first, but after wearing the necklace, his injuries healed, and the light on the necklace disappeared.
"It seems this is what Father meant. This necklace can heal my injuries." Summer gripped the necklace tightly.
