Chapter 3: The Migrant Worker Who Spent All His Money on the Female Streamer

He was usually at the construction site, so Yalan rarely saw her father.

She was unaware of the rift in the family; Lin Jiawen had never told her anything about Ji Huaizhi.

After all, he is his daughter's biological father. Adults should handle their own affairs; she doesn't want to affect her child's life.

"Dad will take you out to play tomorrow."

Ji Huaizhi looked gentle and patted her head.

He mentally communicated with the system: 'How is the child's health? Do you have any way to save him?'

System: 'Host, Yalan's illness is part of the plot and I cannot interfere; I can only alleviate her suffering when the time comes.'

'However, the cure rate for child patients is very high. In her past life, she was held back by financial constraints. In this life, host, you should work hard to earn money, and with the help of the medicines from the system store, the chances of her being cured are very high.'

Ji Huaizhi asked no further questions.

Looking at Lin Jiawen who had just come out, her eyes were obviously red, and her usually stubborn eyes were filled with sadness.

Ji Huaizhi turned his head: "Let's talk."

"Jiawen, I'm sorry." Ji Huaizhi apologized first.

The woman looked at the child outside and asked, "Are you regretting getting a divorce?"

Ji Huaizhi: "I agreed to the divorce before because I was ashamed to face you and the children."

“I don’t know why I felt like I was poisoned before, I…” He closed his eyes and lowered his head: “Jarvin, I’m sorry.”

"Give me another chance."

Lin Jiawen was in a state of confusion: "Ji Huaizhi, tell me what you were thinking when you spent money on those female internet celebrities?"

"Have you thought about me and my daughter?"

Ji Huaizhi raised his eyes, his dark skin exuding a wildness.

The injuries on his body were likely caused by accident at the construction site.

"When I heard people praise me for being rich, I felt so proud and like I really had become a rich person."

Ji Huaizhi spoke the truth:

"It wasn't until you found out that I realized what a stupid thing I had done."

“I’m just an ordinary person, yet I’ve been having such unrealistic dreams.” The regret in Ji Huaizhi’s eyes was genuine.

He grasped Lin Jiawen's hand: "Give me a chance."

"Please."

Ji Huaizhi's face was filled with regret.

In his mind, he was telling the system to make Yalan have a nosebleed so that the doctor could find out about her illness in advance.

Just as Lin Jiawen was about to push his hands away to refuse, she suddenly heard her daughter calling for someone in the living room, her tone somewhat panicked.

"Mother."

When the two went outside after hearing this, they were shocked to find their daughter bleeding from the nose.

"Why is your nose bleeding?" Lin Jiawen pulled her to the bathroom to deal with it.

Ji Huaizhi appeared worried, but he also helped out from the side.

My daughter had a nosebleed, so this wasn't the time to discuss those things.

Seeing that the nosebleed had finally stopped, Ji Huaizhi picked up his daughter with unease and said, "Let's go to the hospital."

A sudden surge of anger rose within Lin Jiawen: "Go to the hospital? Do we even have any money left?"

This was the first time she had lost her composure in front of her child, and she quickly turned her head away so that her daughter wouldn't see her crying.

Ji Huaizhi hugged his daughter tightly and said to his wife, "Jiawen, I will think of a way."

After the two went to the hospital, Ji Huaizhi went to register and queue up alone. Lin Jiawen was torn when she saw him like this.

Yalan's nose was still stuffed with tissues, and she looked pitiful: "Mom, did you and Dad have a fight?"

"Yes, your dad made a mistake, and your mom is still angry with him." Lin Jiawen smiled and touched her daughter's head with her forehead.

"Then, Mom, does Dad know he was wrong?" Yalan was too young to understand adult matters.

“I also made mistakes at school. My teacher said that as long as we children know our mistakes and correct them, we are good children.”

Lin Jiawen touched his daughter's face and found it very pale:

"Dad is not a child anymore."

When Ji Huaizhi arrived, he still had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. He picked up his daughter and took his wife's hand to the elevator: "Let's go to the fourth floor."

"I booked an appointment with a specialist, and I asked this doctor, and he seems very reliable."

Lin Jiawen tried to break free from Ji Huaizhi's hand, but when she looked up, she saw her daughter covering her mouth and giggling.

Seeing her daughter's eyes crinkle into crescents, Lin Jiawen stopped struggling.

"Dad, I'm in second grade now, please don't hug me anymore."

Ji Huaizhi: "You're sick today, so Daddy can hold you."

There were quite a few adults and children on the fourth floor, and many people were queuing for this specialist appointment.

This hospital is the best in the city, so the waiting time is probably quite long.

Lin Jiawen frowned: "Was it necessary to come to this hospital?"

Ji Huaizhi put a mask on his daughter and handed one to Jiawen: "Consider it a physical examination for the child. Wear the mask; there are a lot of germs in the hospital."

Yalan took a nap in her father's lap, and Ji Huaizhi noticed that Lin Jiawen had also dozed off for a while, probably because he hadn't slept well last night either.

After the two woke up, he pulled out two more chocolates from somewhere.

Finally, it was their turn. As they entered the consultation room, the doctor was disinfecting his hands: "You're little Ji Yalan, right?"

Ji Yalan nodded timidly.

"Why is your nose bleeding?" the doctor asked, frowning.

The main thing I noticed was that the child's face was pale, not rosy at all, and his lips were too.

Ji Huaizhi picked up the child and said, "This child suddenly had a nosebleed today, and we can't stop it."

“When I was away from home, my wife told me that she had a weak immune system and had caught a cold several times before, and occasionally had a fever.”

"Sometimes she would feel dizzy and weak, and small red spots would inexplicably appear on her body."

Lin Jiawen turned her head and looked at Ji Huaizhi.

It turned out that he remembered everything she had said before. Since having a child, the only thing the two of them could talk about was the child.

Both of them were busy, and they said they would bring their child for a check-up when they had time, but they were both too busy.

The doctor frowned even more deeply after hearing this.

Call the child over, roll up her sleeves and trouser legs, and you'll find that she does indeed look exactly as the parent described.

"First, do a complete blood count for the child, then a genetic test and a chromosome check." The doctors wrote out the prescriptions, their hands flying across the keyboard while they asked the two parents questions:

Is there any hereditary disease in your family?

Lin Jiawen felt uneasy: "The child's grandparents and maternal grandparents are all in good health."

Is there something wrong with the child?

The doctor told her to calm down: "The results aren't out yet, so parents don't need to worry."

"Siblings, grandparents, etc. all count."

Have you ever had any blood disorders, such as leukemia or thalassemia?

Ji Huaizhi grasped Lin Jiawen's cold hand: "No."

The doctor nodded: "Take these forms and go get your tests done."

After leaving, Lin Jiawen felt a chill run down her spine; the doctor's question had made her heart clench.

“Huai Zhi…” At this moment, she was not as capable as usual.

"It's alright." Ji Huaizhi hugged Jiawen: "I'll take care of everything. Even if the sky falls, I'll hold it up. The child is still young, so don't let her find out anything."

Lin Jiawen looked down at her daughter.

All I heard was her soft voice asking, "Mommy, am I sick?"

"No, that's not true." Lin Jiawen softened her tone: "It's just that Mom and Dad just made up."

Hearing her mother say that, Yalan's eyes lit up: "That's great! Does Dad know he was wrong?"

Ji Huaizhi stroked the back of her head: "Of course I know, Dad will never make the same mistake again."

"Let's go, let's get checked now!"
