Chapter 256: Extra if line (1)
Song Lehan's father is sick.
Suddenly, without any preparation, I was admitted to the hospital.
Song Lehan was about to participate in a singing competition on campus when she received the news. She said goodbye to her roommate and bought the nearest bus ticket, worrying about her father's condition all the way.
When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor said that Song Jianguo would not wake up for a while and needed to be hospitalized for observation.
Song Lehan nodded calmly, and when she saw her mother for the last time, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Dad is sick and can't earn money, but life must go on.
After Song Lehan returned to school, she started looking for odd jobs, hoping to be able to support herself and reduce the burden on her family. Her mother also found a job as a nanny for a wealthy family.
The combined monthly income of the two of them is barely enough to support their lives.
One day, the doctor said that there was a foreign medicine, and the chance of waking up after injection was very high.
Zhang Zhiya called Song Lehan to ask if she wanted to give it to Song Jianguo.
Song Lehan told her to think about it.
The phone call ended and the person who took over her shift arrived.
This person Song Lehan looked very familiar.
She stared at him for a long time before she suddenly remembered that this person was the handsome guy that Qi Han had been talking about.
Xu Jiangcuo!
Is he here to work too?
Song Lehan briefly told him the convenience store's workflow and what he needed to pay attention to. Before he finished explaining, Zhang Zhiya called again.
"Le Le, the doctor said that everyone wants that medicine now. If we hesitate any longer, it will be gone." Zhang Zhiya's tone was anxious, fearing that she would be unable to save Song Jianguo in time.
Song Lehan always felt that something was wrong with this matter, but then he thought, how could the hospital lie?
So she asked the price.
"About 200,000 or 300,000 yuan. The doctor just mentioned it, and I didn't remember it. It's not cheap anyway."
Song Lehan sighed. How could such a useful medicine end up in the homes of ordinary people like them?
As he was hesitating, Xu Jiangcuo beside him spoke.
"Don't buy it, it's a scam. It doesn't really matter whether you get vaccinated or not. They're deliberately creating a shortage just to make you anxious and spend money to buy it."
After hearing what Xu Jiangcuo said, Song Lehan was half-believing and half-doubting.
Xu Jiangcuo raised his eyebrows, lowered his head and fiddled with his phone, then handed the phone screen to Song Lehan.
It shows the latest scam, this one.
Song Lehan widened his eyes and immediately told Zhang Zhiya not to buy such things.
"Mom, don't buy those things. Even if someone in a white coat tells you this, don't believe it, because there are scammers pretending to be doctors in hospitals lately. The person who asks you to buy medicine is fake, don't believe him!"
Zhang Zhiya's hopes were dashed. Although she was a little sad, she still listened to Song Lehan and did not buy the medicine.
After hanging up the phone, Song Lehan smiled at Xu Jiangcuo and said, "Thank you for the reminder."
Xu Jiangcuo said "hmm" expressionlessly, turned around and started working.
Seeing that he didn't seem to want to talk to her, Song Lehan didn't say much and quickly packed up and rushed to the next job.
The two people rarely have contact with each other. If it weren't for the store manager's suggestion, they wouldn't even add each other on WeChat.
Even after adding each other on WeChat, they didn't talk much. Sometimes, when Xu Musui was late for work, he would tell Xu Jiangcuo in advance, and he would just say "hmm" and end the conversation, but he never complained.
Song Lehan sometimes sighed that Xu Jiangcuo was quite handsome, but his personality was a bit cold.
Qi Han learned that Song Lehan and Xu Jiangcuo had the same job, so she would always visit Xu Jiangcuo under the pretext of picking up Song Lehan from work. Sometimes, while Song Lehan was packing up, she would even talk to Xu Jiangcuo.
Unfortunately, Xu Jiangcuo never paid much attention to her.
Song Lehan didn't know this until Xu Jiangcuo told her.
That day, Song Lehan came to take over. In the past, Xu Jiangcuo would have left immediately. But that day, he stood next to Song Lehan and did not leave.
Song Lehan felt something was wrong and asked what happened. Xu Jiangcuo looked at her and hesitated for a long time before telling her about Qi Han.
He told Song Lehan everything he knew. Qi Han kept an eye on him and even talked to him often.
After hearing this, Song Lehan first apologized, and then tried to explain for Qi Han, but it seemed that he could not explain it.
Xu Jiangcuo: "If she likes me, then please help me tell her that I don't like her. If she doesn't like me, then let's just pretend nothing happened today."
He left this sentence and left.
Song Lehan was a little absent-minded that day. After returning to the dormitory, she still told Qi Han. Not in front of everyone, but in private.
When Qi Han heard Song Lehan's words, his eyes suddenly became hostile.
"You did this on purpose, didn't you? If Xu Jiangcuo didn't like me, why would he still bother with me?" Qi Han didn't believe Song Lehan's words. "I think you're jealous of me, so you said that on purpose, didn't you?"
"I'm telling you, I'm definitely going after Xu Jiangcuo!"
So, because of a man, the friendship between Song Lehan and Qi Han was completely broken.
But there was good news. Song Jianguo was transferred to a normal ward. The crisis was over and they just had to wait for him to wake up.
Song Lehan felt that there was hope for the future.
She continued to work, as if it had become a habit. And Xu Jiangcuo, after the incident with Qi Han, never came to the convenience store again.
Life goes on.
Song Lehan spends her days working part-time jobs besides attending classes. Occasionally, she brings in leftovers, washes them, and feeds them to the stray cats on campus.
However, there was some very shocking news on campus recently.
Ye Shuqing from the acting department saw Xu Jiangcuo getting close to someone, so he started a fight with that person.
According to insiders, the situation was very tragic at the time. Xu Jiangcuo stood by and coldly told the two people that he didn't like anyone and would not be with any of them.
This ended the farce.
When Song Lehan heard this, she just took it as a joke. However, it subconsciously reinforced her stereotype of Xu Jiangcuo.
It's cold and there is no warmth at all.
In the first half of his sophomore year, Song Jianguo woke up!
After exercising and recovering, she soon became a normal person. Zhang Zhiya quit her job as a nanny and took Song Jianguo home.
The family still had some savings, so Zhang Zhiya simply used some of the money to open a small noodle shop. The two of them could still make enough money to support their family.
Song Lehan no longer had to work so hard, but she still wanted to work part-time to save more money. So, she only took a tutoring job.
I have two classes a week, which is pretty easy.
Song Lehan thought that she and Xu Jiangcuo would no longer have any contact, but unexpectedly, fate brought them together again.
