There was hope after all!
With Lu Xingzhi's money, Zhou Weiqi and Chen Xuyao's investment, plus Shengqi Hospital's assets, along with her attempt at stone betting this weekend, Jiang Yao should be able to gather a few hundred million dollars.
If that were still insufficient, she had Liang Yueze to call for help.
Lu Xingzhi told her to contact Liang Yueze if she had any trouble. Moreover, the Liang family was very keen on Jiang Yao's business ventures.
The next day, after a half-day class, Jiang Yao and Wen Xuehui bought some takeout from the cafeteria for Moe after finishing their lunch there.
Seeing the takeout box in her hands, Moe suddenly became very chummy with Jiang Yao. He encircled her as he wagged his tail and stood on his hind legs, trying to claw the takeout box with his paws.
"What's the hurry?" Jiang Yao gave Moe the boot before putting the food in his feeder bowl.
The ceramic bowl, with an illustration of a cute white cat on it, was bought by Wen Xuehui for Moe during the National Day holidays.
Moe immediately sat himself down on all four paws next to his bowl and started chomping down on his food.
Jiang Yao stooped beside him to observe, before retrieving a little box from her bag and giving the diamond ring in it to Moe.
"This is the toy I promised you, I bought it last night."
Moe slowly shifted his gaze toward the little trinket in Jiang Yao's hand. Immediately, his tail stood up as his widened eyes betrayed his exhilaration.
"Meow! A new toy! A new toy! Hey, you are not too bad, human!"
Forgetting about his lunch, Moe took over the diamond ring and said, "Quick, bring me a piece of string, I want to tie it on my neck!"
