Chapter 30 I'm not a charity!!
"Handsome boy, which line are you in?"
Nan Yu took a step forward and lifted her bangs.
"ah!"
The leader was a man wearing sunglasses with a crooked "eight" character tattooed on the back of his hand.
He glanced up and down at Nanyu's attire, his face suddenly darkening as he shouted in Cantonese, "One of us? Which faction are you from?"
Nan Yu raised her chin and said slowly, "Li Xiao, have you heard of him? He's my godfather."
The man in sunglasses trembled, and his sunglasses slipped down halfway, revealing surprise in his eyes: "Dad Li!"
He quickly waved his hands, "It's really like a flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple. Family members don't recognize each other anymore!"
Nan Yu also clenched his fists: "She is..."
"Hi." The man in sunglasses glanced at Chen Fang who was curled up on the ground, with an impatient tone.
"He's been lending money everywhere. He's owed money at high interest rates here, and then he's borrowing money elsewhere, trying to borrow from Peter to pay Paul. The interest is compounded until he can't pay it back, so the bosses ask us to collect the debt."
Chen Fang was shivering beside her. Gu Xiangsi looked at her with his brows furrowed even tighter.
"How much do they owe?"
"Five million."
Gu Xiangsi felt her temples throbbing, and her fingertips turned white from clenching.
"Five million?" she repeated the number.
"Yes... I couldn't help it later, so I tried a few more times, thinking I would stop after making up for my losses..." Chen Fang lowered her head.
"Stop?"
Chen Fang came up and pulled her arm, her tone tearful, "Xiangsi, just this once, really the last time! When your mother passed away, she told us to help each other... If your grandmother knew that we don't even have a place to live now, she would definitely be worried sick..."
"A place to live? Helping each other?"
Gu Xiangsi shook off her hand and took a half step back. "Are you helping me fill the hole of your gambling debts?"
She looked at the person in front of her, and her heart felt like it was blocked by something, making it painful.
When my mother was alive, she always said that blood is thicker than water, but this infinitely overdrawn family affection has long become a rope around her neck.
"I have no money, and I won't borrow any more."
Gu Xiangsi took a deep breath and said in a cold voice, "Either you quit gambling and find a job and pay it back slowly, or... call the police."
Nan Yu walked forward, pulled the man in sunglasses aside and whispered a few words to him, who nodded.
When he came over, his voice was cold: "Then call the police. Since you can't pay it back, all of you should go in and work on the sewing machines."
When Chen Fang heard this, she trembled all over and waved her hands hurriedly: "No, no! Xiangsi, please help us!"
She suddenly remembered something and quickly added, "Oh, my wife has a pension! And there's a card given to me by my husband's sister. There should be over a few million in it!"
Nan Yu had no choice but to pull Gu Xiangsi aside and frowned, "Is your aunt mentally ill? I wanted to ask them to be more lenient..."
Gu Xiangsi said calmly, "It's useless. You can't support a wall with mud."
"How about I lend it to you first?"
"No." Gu Xiangsi immediately shook her head. "If they borrow it this time, they will definitely come to me again next time."
She thought for a moment and said, "I have a solution. I have to borrow money in front of them."
"OK."
So Nanyu walked up and said a few words to the man in sunglasses, and then the group split into two cars and drove towards Qingshan Hospital.
The ward at Qingshan Hospital was in a complete mess.
As soon as Gu Xiangsi walked to the door of the corridor, she heard crying and shouting from inside. It was the voice of the old lady.
Gu Xiangsi rushed into the ward first and saw Song Ping and Song Hefan kneeling on the ground begging for mercy.
Lin Xiu wiped her tears, panting, pointing at them and cursing, "You two prodigal sons! How can you be so useless? Even if you were a little bit... a little bit like your sister, you wouldn't be..."
"Grandma!" Gu Xiangsi hurriedly stepped forward, reached out and gently patted grandma's back, her voice full of anxiety, "Calm down first, don't get yourself hurt by anger, and talk slowly if you have anything to say."
Song Ping and Song Hefan were shocked when they saw so many people rushing into the ward.
Chen Fang hurried over, and the three of them hugged each other and shrank back.
The men in sunglasses didn't say anything. They sat down on the sofa, smoking and looking at them coldly.
"Lovesickness..."
Lin Xiu held Gu Xiangsi's hand, tears streaming down her face. "I'm sorry for you and your mother! They owe so much money now. How about I be discharged from the hospital..."
"No, grandma." Gu Xiangsi interrupted immediately, "I will find a way to pay for the medical expenses. I have already paid it and it cannot be refunded."
Lin Xiu pulled out two cards from her pocket and handed them over tremblingly: "The money in these cards was originally given by your mother for my retirement. One is my pension, you can use it to help them pay it back..."
"Grandma, no!"
Gu Xiangsi held her hand and said, "This is your pension money, you can't touch it."
"Gu Xiangsi!" Song Ping was anxious. "We're almost out of room. Why are you saving money?"
Gu Xiangsi turned around abruptly, and swept his cold eyes over the three of them, obviously extremely angry.
She turned back to look at Lin Xiu and slowed down her voice: "Grandma, this card was given to you by your mother, right?"
Lin Xiu nodded.
"But the money in this card cannot be used. It has been frozen."
"What?"
Song Ping and the other two all shouted, "You're lying! You just don't want us to use this money!"
"What's the point of me lying to you?"
Gu Xiangsi sneered, "If I wanted to deny it, I wouldn't have given you the 20 million to fill the hole."
Outside the corridor, the director of Qingshan Hospital accompanied Fu Sinian on an inspection tour. The director glanced at the ward and sighed softly, "This old man is really pitiful. The whole family is addicted to gambling and quarrels a lot.
Fortunately, the granddaughter is sensible. She comes to send medical expenses every month and insists on curing the old man.
Now that you have invested in the hospital, it will surely get better and better."
Fu Sinian followed the dean's gaze into the ward and just heard Gu Xiangsi say "twenty million" and "fill the hole", so he paused.
The dean was about to speak when he raised his hand and said "hush".
In the ward.
"All of my parents' cards were frozen. My mom was unconscious at the time, and the only thing she cared about was you, grandma. So I really can't withdraw the money from this card."
Lin Xiu's hands began to tremble violently.
Gu Xiangsi held her hand and said seriously, "Grandma, don't worry, I will definitely cure you."
She raised her eyes and looked at Song Ping and the other two, her tone cold, "As for your usury. How much did I give you in the beginning, and you squandered it all the time. Even if I sell myself now, it won't fill this hole you've made!"
Knock knock knock, there's a knock on the door.
Everyone in the ward stopped talking and turned to look outside.
There was a man standing at the door, wearing a black coat and a neat suit underneath, his eyes fixed on Gu Xiangsi.
Gu Xiangsi was stunned, his brows furrowed subconsciously, and he obviously had a headache.
The dean quickly stepped forward and introduced: "This is our Qingshan Hospital's new shareholder, President Fu."
"Keep quiet in the ward."
Song Ping and the others hurriedly apologized: "Yes, let's keep our voices down."
Fu Sinian ignored them and took two steps into the ward. He glanced at Song Ping and the other two, and finally landed on the man in sunglasses. He asked, "How much do they owe you?"
"Five million, including principal and interest," the man in sunglasses replied.
"Mr. Fu!"
Song Ping seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. His knees weakened and he almost knelt down again. "You are such a kind person. Please help us! We will work like slaves for you!"
Fu Sinian sneered, his gaze slowly turning back to Gu Xiangsi's face, his tone devoid of emotion.
"I'm not a charity. What benefits can you bring to me?"
He paused and added meaningfully.
"After all, not everyone is qualified enough to be willing to cover for them."
