Ni Sitian took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and said coldly to Ni Ziqi, "Dad is sick right now, I can't be bothered to argue with you."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Ni Qianshan and said, "Dad, you should focus on getting better first. We can talk about everything else after you're better. Those people won't dare to come into the hospital."

“This illness will cost a lot of money, and the family’s situation is already like this…” He Cuiyun started crying again, grabbed Ni Sitian’s hand, and was about to kneel down before Ni Sitian, crying, “Sitian, your father can’t be hurt, he is the pillar of the family. Auntie has made many mistakes in the past, but please, you must save him.”

Ni Sitian grabbed He Cuiyun's arm to stop her from kneeling, and said seriously with a serious expression, "He is my father, of course I will save him. Don't make a scene in the hospital."

I get so annoyed by her crying; she always manages to make things worse.

"That's good, that's good." He Cuiyun wiped away her tears, sniffling, "Sitian, before we find a suitable kidney, she still needs dialysis every week and all sorts of tests. After finding a kidney, she'll need surgery, and then chemotherapy. It won't be cured without hundreds of thousands of yuan. This money..."

"I'll transfer some money to you when I get back tonight. I'll continue to transfer it to you after I find ****." Ni Sitian doesn't have that much money on hand right now; she won't receive the interim payment until at least the 25th.

"The doctor said to hold the money as collateral first, and the right doctors will be given priority." He Cuiyun whispered to Ni Sitian, "This is a private hospital, and the rules are not as strict as in public hospitals. We can pull some strings and give the doctors some gifts or something."

Ni Sitian knew that giving gifts to doctors was a common practice, and she still felt very uncomfortable when she heard about it, but there was nothing she could do; it was the reality of society.

"I understand," Ni Sitian said in a deep voice.

"Sitian, Dad is counting on you." Ni Qianshan held Ni Sitian's hand, his eyes filled with tears.

Ni Sitian was still not used to Ni Qianshan's closeness, but when people are sick, they are at their most vulnerable, so she couldn't just pull her hand away. She patted the back of his hand and said, "Don't worry."

“What are we going to do about the 2.5 million? They can’t get into the hospital, but Ziqi and I are still staying here. They come to our door every day demanding payment. Something bad is bound to happen sooner or later,” He Cuiyun cried to Ni Sitian.

"Then call the police," Ni Sitian said.

"Don't call the police!" Ni Ziqi retorted, somewhat agitated. "There are plenty of thugs among these loan sharks. If the police arrest a few, another wave will come. It won't be as simple as just throwing paint in front of our house! Besides, we were in the wrong to owe the money, and the police can't solve this problem."

"Then what do you suggest we do?" Ni Sitian definitely couldn't come up with that much money right now. Even if she could ask Xu Tingchuan for it, she didn't want to so easily spend money to solve their problem so quickly.

To prevent them from thinking that she makes money easily, and then repeating the same mistake, it's better to scare them a little while we can, instead of learning from this experience with loan sharks.

"Sitian, why don't you let Aunt He and Ziqi stay at your place for now, and then they can move back after this storm passes?" Ni Qianshan coughed a few times and said weakly.

Ni Sitian frowned and rejected the idea outright: "No, I don't have the space. The living room has already been converted into a study."

"Who are you trying to fool? Didn't Xu Tingchuan buy you a villa on the island in the middle of the lake? It's so big it's like a castle." Ni Ziqi had been keeping an eye on Xu Tingchuan's activities, so she naturally knew that they had bought the most expensive house in Yihai.
