The two of them went directly to a public phone booth and called Ye Tingjun, telling him not to take on the Fang family's affairs. They could politely visit, but absolutely not to interfere further.
Ye Tingjun agreed, explained Ye Yifan's meaning, and reassured him.
Hua Kai went back to school for evening self-study in the evening. She and Ye Yifan had agreed that if the Fang family really didn't have money, they would make sure Fang Changliang had money for medical treatment, but not by giving him money directly or making any promises, since the Fang family was greedy.
Hua Kai is a day student now. She gets out of class late and drives home by herself. Since she has money, Hua Kai doesn't want to be deliberately low-key. There's no need. Driving saves time, which can be used to earn more money. She is different from ordinary people, so there's no need to pretend to be the same.
As soon as she reached the car, Fang Nana rushed out and knelt down in front of Hua Kai: "Hua Kai, I was wrong. I was wrong before. Please help me."
Hua Kai looked at Fang Nana with a puzzled expression: "You asked me for help? You've got the wrong person, haven't you?"
Fang Nana shook her head: "I can't find Brother Xiao Fan, so I can only turn to you. If you help me just this once, I promise I won't bother you again. No, I promise I won't appear in your sight again, okay?"
Hua Kai knew that Ye Yifan had returned to the provincial capital in the afternoon for a meeting, so it was normal that Fang Nana couldn't find him.
But Hua Kai still hadn't expected the reason Fang Nana had sought her out: "You want me to help you? What can I do to help you?"
Fang Nana said, "Lend me a thousand yuan. I need to go to Harbin. I need to leave this place."
Hua Kai was even more confused: "No, your father is sick, and you're leaving now?"
"It's because my dad is sick. My two married sisters both said it's impossible for them to donate bone marrow to me. Fang Lanlan is in prison, and I don't think she'll donate. My parents can't bear to part with Fang Baobao, so now they've decided to make me donate bone marrow. It's not just a blood draw. I've asked several friends about bone marrow, and they all say that after donating, the person is finished. I can't donate, so I have to leave too." Fang Nana was truly terrified. Thinking about how terrible bone marrow donation was, she vowed to leave, even if it meant kneeling before someone she hated.
Hua Kai understood. None of the Fang family members could donate bone marrow. Not to mention that Fang Changliang hadn't even reached that point yet, and it was still uncertain whether he needed a bone marrow transplant, the whole family was already hiding. It was truly tragic that they had raised so many children, only to find that none of them were of any use when it mattered most.
Looking at Fang Nana kneeling there, she really felt that this person's life was quite pitiful, that she had to kneel down and beg for this.
If Fang Nana were to park her car in a conspicuous place and try to use other people's stares to force her to agree to her request, then she would at least be using her brain.
However, the car is not parked on the main street, and there are few people around, which shows that Fang Nana's purpose is to ask for help.
Of course, she couldn't help Fang Nana: "Get up, I can't help you, I won't get involved in the Fang family's affairs."
Fang Nana stood up and pleaded with the flowers, "I know you look down on me, but do you understand my life? My two older sisters are alright. Although our parents favored boys over girls, they still held onto some hope when they had two daughters. But when the third one was also a girl, their attitude changed. They treat me like a plague. I do the most housework and get the most beatings and scoldings. Fang Lanlan is lucky; she was born into a wealthy family and lived the life of a pampered lady. But what about me? I suffer for nothing, and now I'm the one who has to work myself to the bone. Why? I'm not reconciled. I just want to leave. Am I wrong?"
Hua Kai felt sorry for Fang Nana's situation; indeed, her identity was quite pitiful. However, it was all a matter for the Fang family, and she couldn't interfere.
She said to Fang Nana, "I've already said I won't get involved in the Fang family's affairs. You know that getting involved with your family will only cause trouble. As for whether you should take care of your father or donate bone marrow to him, I won't comment on those things. I just don't want to have anything to do with your family. You can leave now."
Fang Nana sighed, "It's such a tragedy to be born into the Fang family. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to rely on myself." With that, she left.
Watching Fang Nana's retreating figure, Hua Kai sighed. Indeed, the Fang family was a truly tragic family.
She got into the car and drove home.
Hua Qingyi also lives here now, so the brother and sister still look after each other.
When Hua Kai returned home, she told Hua Qingyi about the Fang family's situation, and Hua Qingyi also sighed at the many unpredictable things in the world.
The weekend arrived quickly. Ye Yifan had been in the provincial capital all week. Ye Jianxiao had been unwell and was recuperating in the hospital, so after finishing his meeting, Ye Yifan took two days off to spend time with his grandfather in the provincial capital.
Hua Kai drove straight to the provincial capital after school on Saturday to visit Ye Jianxiao. Now that she has a car, it's convenient for her, and she doesn't necessarily have to go home on weekends. Whenever she wants to go back, she can ask for leave from evening self-study and go home. She can then drive back to school early the next day without missing any classes.
Looking back now, I realize that getting a driver's license was really worthwhile; it's so convenient.
Upon arriving in the provincial capital, she went directly to the inpatient department of the medical university. Ye Jianxiao had been receiving treatment at this hospital, and the doctors there were familiar with his condition.
Upon entering the ward, Ye Jianxiao was asleep. It was a private room, very quiet, and the environment was very nice.
Ye Yifan closed the door and followed Hua Kai into the corridor: "Grandpa just fell asleep, let's go eat."
Hua Kai said, "That's fine, it'll be good to bring Grandpa dinner back."
"I ordered a meal for Grandpa at the hospital. The caregiver will bring it over in a bit. What would you like to eat? Shall we go eat?"
"No need. I came here to see Grandpa. If he wakes up and not only doesn't he see me, but you're not here to keep him company either, won't he be sad?"
"Grandpa kept telling me to go back quickly, afraid that I wouldn't take good care of him."
"I'm not a child either," Hua Kai said with a smile, then asked, "Has the Fang family come to the provincial capital?"
Ye Yifan nodded and said, "They're here, also at the medical university, but in the hematology department. They don't know that Grandpa is also hospitalized, so it's quite quiet here. Grandpa will be discharged tomorrow, so we won't run into each other."
"That's good. Otherwise, Grandpa's hospital stay wouldn't be peaceful. Did they ask your family for help?"
"I did look for them, but I told my dad and me that we'd just go and check on them politely."
"Does their family have the money to treat their illness in the provincial capital? How many children did they send there? Do you know?"
"For now, their family still has some savings to use. After all, they saved up a lot of money to build a house and get married for Fang Baobao in the future, so they can hold on for a while. The Fang family is more pathetic than I thought; not a single child came."
"Fang Nana asked me for money. She wanted to run away from home and didn't want to care about her father. I didn't lend her the money, but I guess she still ran away."
"I guess so. As for Fang Lanlan, needless to say, given her selfish nature, I doubt she would donate."
