Chapter 362 Buying Medicine for Dad
Huang Duoduo had just finished lunch and was lounging on the sofa watching TV with her grandmother.
Just then, the cell phone in the room suddenly rang.
Huang Duoduo quickly ran back to her room.
Upon seeing the number flashing on her phone screen, she quickly closed and locked the door.
As she answered the phone, she whispered, "Dad!"
“Duoduo…” came Huang Dehan’s weak voice from the other end of the phone.
Hearing that Huang Dehan's voice sounded off, Huang Duoduo asked anxiously, "Dad, what's wrong?"
"Dad has a fever, can you buy some medicine for me?"
Huang Duoduo glanced at the door. She wanted to go out and buy medicine for her father, but her grandmother was at home... What should she do?
She thought for a moment, her eyes darting around, and then she had an idea.
She quickly said, "Okay, Daddy, where are you?"
Huang Dehan then told her the address.
After saying that, he added, "You absolutely mustn't tell your mom, understand?"
Huang Duoduo replied, "Don't worry, Dad, I won't tell Mom. She's not home; she went out."
"I'm bringing some food for Dad... Do you have any money?"
"Yes, my grandma gave me a lot of money."
"Okay, come over here quickly, Dad is feeling unwell."
"Okay, Dad, wait for me."
After hanging up the phone, Huang Duoduo opened the drawer and took out the metal box where she kept her money.
This box is for cookies, but she thought it was pretty, so she used it to store her money.
She put all the red envelopes Zhang Yan gave her in there; there were 20,000 yuan in them.
She counted out two thousand yuan, intending to take it to her father.
Dad must not have money for food, that's why he got sick, it's so pitiful!
She put the money in her pocket, opened the door, and went out.
Seeing Huang Duoduo come out, Zhang Yan asked, "Who called you just now?"
"Oh...my classmate," Huang Duoduo said guiltily, her eyes darting around.
Fortunately, Zhang Yan didn't suspect her. She asked one question and then stopped, continuing to watch her TV.
Huang Duoduo stepped forward and said in a coquettish tone, "Grandma, I want to eat candied hawthorn."
"Want some candied hawthorn?" Zhang Yan asked Huang Duoduo with affection.
Huang Duoduo nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, I want to eat."
Zhang Yan glanced out the window; it wasn't snowing. She stood up and said, "Then you wait at home. Grandma will go out and buy it for you now."
Huang Duoduo cheered, "Great! Thank you, Grandma! I love you the most!"
Seeing Huang Duoduo so happy, Zhang Yan couldn't help but smile as well.
She put on her coat and went out.
As she left, she reminded him, "Don't open the door to strangers, okay?"
Huang Duoduo quickly replied, "I understand, Grandma."
No sooner had Zhang Yan left than she put on her coat and went out the door as well.
There are pharmacies and snack shops right at the entrance of the residential area.
She first went to the pharmacy to buy cold medicine and fever reducers, and then went to the snack shop to buy a few meat buns and a bowl of noodles.
She went to the address Huang Dehan had given her.
Fortunately, Huang Dehan lived not far from her neighborhood, and Huang Duoduo found him quickly.
Huang Dehan lives on the top floor, the sixth floor, which is a walk-up building with no elevator.
Huang Duoduo climbed to the sixth floor, panting heavily.
Not daring to waste any time, she quickly knocked on the door.
At this moment, Huang Dehan was curled up on the sofa. Hearing the knock on the door, he struggled to get up and staggered to open the door while holding onto the wall.
The door opened, and a strong smell of alcohol mixed with mold hit her nose. Huang Duoduo couldn't help but cover her nose and exclaimed, "Dad, it stinks!"
Huang Dehan's face was frighteningly pale. Seeing what Huang Duoduo was carrying, he quickly asked, "Did you buy medicine for me?"
