Chapter 011 Teacher Song, be careful
Song Yi and Xu Shengwen stopped in the corridor downstairs of the inpatient area.
Xu Shengwen raised his hand to wipe the tears from Song Yi's face. "What did the doctor say? Auntie didn't have any underlying health conditions before, so why did she suddenly become like this?"
"It's kidney failure." Song Yi whispered these two words, then sniffed, "I need a transplant."
Xu Shengwen's face froze. The transplant surgery would cost at least 500,000 yuan.
He was very clear about Song Yi's financial situation. Her work had just been on track for less than two years, and she didn't have that much money.
Moreover, they were about to get married, and if Song Lansheng fell ill at this critical moment, he would definitely have to pay for it.
Xu Shengwen pondered for a moment, then pressed Song Yi's shoulder and asked, "Are there any other options?"
"Yes, radiotherapy," Song Yi said. "Neither is cheap. Transplantation has a higher chance of recovery."
Xu Shengwen: "But transplants also depend on matching. What if we can't find a suitable kidney donor—"
"I'll do a matching test tomorrow." Song Yi pursed her lips, a little nervous. "I hope it's a match. The doctor said the success rate of kidney donation from an immediate family member is higher."
Xu Shengwen hesitated to speak.
Song Yi saw his hesitation and took the initiative to tell him: "I will borrow the money for the surgery and won't let you pay for it. I just..."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Xu Shengwen interrupted Song Yi, hugged her in his arms and patted her shoulder.
"We'll be husband and wife soon. How can I let you face this alone?" Xu Shengwen consoled her. "We can pool the money together. I'm here for you."
"How much did the doctor say?" asked Xu Shengwen.
Song Yi raised three fingers.
When Xu Shengwen was about to say "300,000 is no problem", he heard Song Yi say "3 million" with difficulty.
Xu Shengwen frowned: "Why are there so many?"
Song Yi didn't say anything.
Although Xu Shengwen's reaction was a bit exaggerated, Song Yi did not blame him.
They are all ordinary people, and three million is really a huge sum of money for them.
"What about conservative treatment?" Xu Shengwen glanced toward the inpatient building. "I'll talk to the doctor tomorrow."
Song Yi heard the hidden meaning in Xu Shengwen's words, and he did not agree with Song Lansheng to have the transplant surgery.
——
Song Lansheng was in the ICU and Song Yi could not visit him. Considering the financial pressure, she still went to class.
The last class in the morning happened to be for Fu Xiao’s class.
The class ended peacefully, and just after class, Song Yi received a call from Xu Shengwen.
She found a deserted corner and answered the phone: "Shengwen?"
Xu Shengwen said, "I just talked to the doctor. Conservative treatment costs about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan per session. Let's go with conservative treatment first."
Song Yi frowned. She had clearly reminded Xu Shengwen not to see a doctor before they parted last night.
"Radiotherapy is very painful, and the success rate is not as high as that of transplant surgery. My mother's health is already very poor." Although she was dissatisfied, Song Yi did not argue with him.
Xu Shengwen: "I understand, I understand, but Xiaoyi, we also have to consider the actual situation. Even if we sell everything we have to scrape together three million, can the operation be successful? What if it doesn't work?"
"You're not even 30 yet. If you donate a kidney, what will happen to your health in the future?" Xu Shengwen said earnestly. "I know you're filial, but you can't ignore yourself. If Mom knew, she wouldn't agree to you doing this."
"I'll find a way to get the money myself. If we have different opinions on this matter, let's not talk about it for now, okay?" Song Yi lowered his head and looked at his feet. "My colleague asked me to have dinner, so let's leave it at that for now."
The first time, she hung up the phone unilaterally without waiting for Xu Shengwen's response.
The phone call made Song Yi feel very upset. She raised her hand to rub her chest, took a deep breath, and started to leave.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I looked up, I saw two familiar figures.
It's no surprise to see Fu Xiao at school.
But Fu Xijing beside him...
Before Song Yi had time to think about why Fu Xijing appeared in the school, Fu Xiao had already walked up to her and grabbed her arm.
Song Yi's body trembled, and he subconsciously looked towards Fu Xijing.
Fu Xijing met her gaze with a half-smile.
Song Yi's scalp tingled, and he reached out to push Fu Xiao: "This is school, classmate Fu Xiao."
"Is your family sick?" Fu Xiao held her tightly. "Your worthless boyfriend doesn't even have money for medical treatment? What on earth are you trying to achieve by being with him?"
Song Yi's heart sank. Did he hear everything just now?
Doesn’t that mean Fu Xijing also heard it?
Song Yi pursed his lips into a line, feeling embarrassed that he had nowhere to hide.
She was not a person who cared much about face, but for some reason, she didn't want Fu Xijing to see her in such a mess.
She would be ashamed.
"This is my privacy." Song Yi pulled his arm back, took a deep breath, and walked forward.
Maybe it was because he was too nervous, but when he walked to Fu Xijing, Song Yi tripped over something.
Before she could look, the man in a suit beside her had already supported her.
"Teacher Song, be careful." Fu Xijing behaved like a polite gentleman, restrained and distant.
"Thank you." Song Yi reacted and immediately separated from him, hurried away with the textbooks.
Fu Xijing looked at the direction Song Yi left, fiddling with his watch with his fingers.
"Uncle, do me a favor." Fu Xiao came up, "I want to check on the condition of Song Yi's family."
