Chapter 209: Chapter 209: Memories

"Um..." Su Lu was somewhat distracted, her gaze drifting toward the emergency room doors from time to time.

Aunt Zhao, sensing her state, decided not to continue making small talk and went straight to the purpose of the call, "I see that you haven’t fully recovered, and since I’m here with nothing else to do anyway—I’m not really into traveling—how about I continue to take care of you, Miss Su?"

Although distracted, Su Lu had heard the other party clearly, "How could I agree to that? You came out to relax, you should enjoy yourself. I can’t bother you like this. Besides, I’m fine. Really, I’m fine."

There’s nothing I can’t handle.

Zhao Ying, unable to persuade her, pondered for a moment, then said, "Mainly... mainly because my son spent quite a bit to set up this trip for me, so I thought I’d earn some more, to help him out. If I could continue taking care of you—after all, you offer quite a good rate."

Since the conversation had shifted to more practical matters, and the emotional appeal was lessened, it didn’t seem so hard to accept.

Su Lu still did not agree but did not immediately refuse as firmly as before.

She remained silent.

But undoubtedly, Zhao Ying was a shrewd businesswoman. Her ability to achieve such success in business over the years showed her negotiation skills, knowing how to grasp the other party’s psyche.

So, hearing Su Lu’s silence, Zhao Ying continued, "And... pardon me for being direct, Miss Su, but Mr. Bo also needs quite a bit of care."

"... Well, okay then," Su Lu conceded, "I suppose I have to trouble you again. Don’t worry, I’ll triple the payment."
