Chapter 234
Chapter 234: Compensation
The man’s hand trembled although the rest of his body seemed frozen in place, his bearded face showing unbearable agony .
“What?” The little girl’s mother screamed, falling to the ground as heart-wrenching sobs came from her throat .
“My precious daughter ah, wuu wooo~~~!”
“Mommy shouldn’t have left you alone to get the car, shouldn’t have… . ”
Song Wuyou heard what the doctor said from where she sat . The news dismayed her . Her barely dried tears flowed again because of the little girl’s departure .
The little girl was … so beautiful . An innocent life gone, just like that .
“It’s your fault!” The little girl’s mother suddenly pointed and screamed at Song Wuyou, indescribable pain turning into raw anger as grim-faced she ranted, “It’s you! You killed my only daughter!”
Song Wuyou expressed dismay as she faced the mother . The woman climbed up awkwardly from the floor, lunging toward Song Wuyou . Mu Gu’s line of vision dropped to follow the woman’s actions . He raised an arm to block the woman while the other hand directed Song Wuyou behind him in a protective stance . He looked sharply at the woman, “ Your child is gone . I can empathize with your pain, but you cannot blame Wuyou because of this . She, more than anyone, did not want this to happen . ”
The woman screamed relentlessly, not letting Song Wuyou off, “She’s the reason my daughter is dead!”
“I’m sorry . ” Song Wuyou rarely apologize to anyone this way . Her voice choked even as she walked out from behind Mu Gu, bravely facing the mother, “I’m very sorry something like this happened . This was not something I wished to happen . I can understand the anguish of losing a daughter, but all I can do now is to compensate you . ”
“Compensate me?” The woman half-cried/half-shrieked, “How are you going to compensate me? Can you let my daughter breathe again?”
Song Wuyou spoke with guilt and sincerity, “I’m not an immortal . I do not have the ability to make your daughter come alive again . All that I can do is only to compensate you with money, five million . That’s the best I can do . ”
When the woman heard the figure, her body shivered subtly, then she fell once again to the floor, crying – but she did not attack Song Wuyou again .
It was the same with the man . When he heard five million, something flashed in his eyes, a complicated feeling flashed passed his face .
When the other families heard Song Wuyou agree to compensate the little girl’s mother, all of them clamored for their loss as well .
This put Song Wuyou in a difficult position . The money she earned from making qipaos for Mrs . Jier was only five million…
“Five million for every victim . ” Mu Gu stated in a low voice as his eyes watched the people around him . Learning that they would each receive five million in compensation, all put on their best behavior, no longer making a racket .
Mu Gu looked at the little girl’s mother, “We are to blame that you lost a daughter . We’re truly sorry for that, and feel bad ourselves . The dead cannot be resurrected, and we hope that you can be strong . I will compensate you five million as well . Adding to Wuyou’s five million, you have a total of ten million . ”
Hearing this number, the crying mother’s sobs halted abruptly as she raised her head to look at Mu Gu in astonishment .
Song Wuyou also looked at Mu Gu, dumbfounded . Doesn’t Mu Gu need to take out a lot of money to pay for these compensations?
Mu Gu turned around, giving her a reassuring look, “Don’t feel sad . My people and Ah De are investigating the matter . The people behind this will definitely be caught and punished by law . ”
“That compensation money… . ”
“Don’t look down on my sheep; the money I earn is more than Ah Hao . ”
Ka—
The doors to another operating theatre opened .
Song Wuyou and Mu Gu looked over; it was Gu Yanhao’s operating room .
Subconsciously Mu Gu held Song Wuyou’s hand as they walked over . Song Wuyou frowned slightly, pulling back her hand . Only then did Mu Gu realize what he’d done . He was shocked . He could still feel the temperature her hand left on his skin, and the softness of her hand lingered…
