Su Ruoyun smiled bitterly and shook her head. "I'm fine... Anyway, I won't live much longer. Before I die, I just hope my mom can get better soon."
Ouyang Su looked at the girl in front of him. Despite her delicate and fragile appearance, there was a strong light in her eyes.
He was a doctor, and theoretically, he shouldn't have too many personal feelings for patients and their families. However, over the past year, watching Su Ruoyun struggle to raise money for her mother's medical expenses made him unable to help but feel heartbroken.
He only regretted that he wasn't rich or powerful enough to help this poor girl.
"Doctor, can you please check for me? Is this one million enough for my mom's surgery?" Su Ruoyun asked earnestly.
Ouyang Su came back to his senses, his expression filled with sympathy. "One million is enough for your mother's surgery, but for the subsequent medication, you might need to gather another two hundred thousand."
Su Ruoyun's face turned even paler.
Another two hundred thousand?
Did she have to sell herself again?
No...
She really couldn't do that anymore...
"Okay." Although despair filled her heart, she forced herself to pull it together. "I will find a way."
Su Ruoyun turned to look at her mother in the intensive care unit.
"Mom... I will definitely save you, just wait for me..."
-
Su Ruoyun quickly left the hospital. After hesitating for a long time at the bus stop, she finally boarded the bus heading to the city center.
At this point, she could only turn to her father for help.
It's just two hundred thousand; he surely wouldn't refuse to lend it to her, right?
By the time she arrived at Su Family Villa, it was already evening. Su Ruoyun stood at the door, unsure whether to knock. Just then, a luxury car suddenly pulled up in front of the villa, and a middle-aged man stepped out.
Seeing the man, Su Ruoyun's eyes lit up as she hurried over. "Dad."
Su Haitian trembled slightly and turned to see Su Ruoyun, his eyes filled with shock. "What are you doing here?"
"I came to borrow some money from you," Su Ruoyun mustered her courage to say. "Mom is seriously ill and needs two hundred thousand for surgery. Can you lend it to me first? I promise I will pay you back once I have the money."
Su Haitian's expression immediately became awkward.
"Well... Ruo Yun, it's not that Dad doesn't want to help your mom, but I've been tight on funds lately. Two hundred thousand is really a bit difficult for me right now..."
He was desperately searching for an excuse when suddenly, the back door of the car opened, and a beautiful mother and daughter stepped out, carrying several shopping bags.
Su Ruoyun recognized the brands on those bags; even one of those bags cost several thousand. With so many bags combined, it easily added up to tens of thousands.
Su Ruoyun's gaze instantly turned cold, and beside her, Su Haitian felt a wave of embarrassment.
Just a moment ago, he had claimed to be broke, but now there were so many designer shopping bags—it was like a slap in the face.
As Qiu Susu got out of the car and saw Su Ruoyun, her previously cheerful expression immediately faded. She raised her voice sharply, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to borrow money; my mother needs medical expenses," Su Ruoyun replied expressionlessly.
"Is that vixen dying?" Qiu Susu's eyes lit up. "That's great! Forget about medical expenses; let her die quickly!"
The anger that Su Ruoyun had been suppressing finally erupted.
"What vixen! The one who destroyed my parents' marriage was you!" she exclaimed angrily. "How can you still say my mother is a vixen?"
"Ruo Yun! How can you speak to your Aunt Qiu like that?" Su Haitian could no longer hold back and scolded her sternly.
Qiu Susu's face turned pale and then flushed with anger, her eyes reddening with tears.
"Fine, Su Haitian! You take care of them, mother and daughter! After all, Kerr and I are not your family; they are! Go ahead and give them the money!"
Qiu Susu cried as she ran into the house.
