Chapter 400:1 Want to Be a Doctor Too
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Are you a doctor?” The young man’s eyes sparkled with starlight. “My wish is also to be a doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded… It’s a pity. Forget it, let’s not talk about these things. No matter what, thank you.”
“I’m not a doctor. I’m just a businesswoman who earns money from the injured. If I were you, I would go and rest immediately. If you die, no one will care about your brother and grandmother.”
After Xia Ju said this, she walked past the young man and quickly walked toward the alley. Du Yue and He Xing nodded at the young man and left.
The stunned young man slowly turned his head to look at the backs of the three people who were gradually walking away. His hand that was holding the food bag tightened. He did not want to live such a life of fear every day, but that pervert offered too much! If they did not take this path, the three of them would not even be able to guarantee that their needs were met if they only relied on what his grandmother and brother earned from helping others! Although that pervert was vicious, he was also very generous. He gave him ten catties of grains in one night, and it was all exquisite fine grain. If he kept a portion of the white rice and flour and exchanged the rest for coa.r.s.e grains, he would get even more. It was enough for them to eat for a few days.
He had no ability and no background. Other than relying on his own body to fight… There was nothing he could do. Such an opportunity might be looked down on by others, and others might point fingers at him. However, he had gone through many battles before he finally obtained this chance. Therefore, no matter what, he could not give up!
As long as he was still breathing, he would try his best to earn more food for his grandmother and brother. When he was gone, they would have one less mouth to eat. They would be able to eat more and live longer. Having made up his mind, the young man turned around and staggered into the courtyard.

Du Yue and He Xing got into the car and saw that Xia Ju was already sitting in the backseat angrily. Xia Ju’s face was already a little chubby. Now that she was pouting angrily, she looked even more like a little hamster. Du Yue was staring at her. Xia Ju glared at her and said fiercely, “Why are you staring at me?”
Du Yue chuckled and answered seriously, “I was thinking that it would be interesting if someone were to date you.”
Xia Ju was speechless.
Obviously, Xia Ju did not understand what Du Yue meant. She also did not understand why Du Yue would say something like that. Xia Ju could not figure it out, so she simply did not think about it. Seeing that Du Yue and He Xing had already sat down and He Xing had even started the car and was about to step on the accelerator to leave, Xia Ju could not hold it in anymore. “Aren’t you curious why I lost my temper?”
Since Xia Ju had said so, Du Yue had to give her face. “Of course, I’m curious. So why are you throwing a tantrum?”
“I just think that young man is too dull! He has already guessed that I’m a doctor. Why wasn’t he willing to spend some food to buy some medicine from me to treat his injuries? After buying medicine from me and treating his injuries, won’t he be able to continue earning money? He won’t have to worry that he might die at any time…”
The more Xia Ju spoke, the angrier she became. Her fair and flawless face was so angry that it was a little red. Seeing her angry appearance, Du Yue wanted to laugh again, but she still held it in. “He might be worried about the food.” Du Yue slowly explained to Xia Ju, “Look at how badly injured he is. He probably paid a high price for every pound of food he got. That’s why he can’t bear to use food to buy medicine. He just wants to endure it. Perhaps he would even think that it would be good if he died. With one less person to eat, his grandmother and brother will be able to eat a little more.”
Du Yue explained to Xia Ju word by word. Xia Ju’s expression was not so ugly anymore. On the contrary, she was shocked. A moment later, Xia Ju spoke slowly, “How do you know what he’s thinking? Could it be… Have you experienced something like this before?”
Du Yue smiled. ”1 haven’t.”
“Then how did you guess?”
“Because I often watch family dramas. You’ll be able to guess it if you watch more.” Xia Ju was speechless. While Du Yue was talking to Xia Ju, He Xing was focused on driving. That young man had indeed suffered a lot, and they could not help but feel sympathetic.
However, since the other party did not take the initiative to ask for help, they could not rush to help him. What Xia Ju said made sense. If the young man wanted to live well, he could have asked to buy medicine from Xia Ju. However, if he did not care about his own life and death, strangers like them could only stop caring..
