Chapter 190 Gu Xiaoman's Sudden Illness



The classroom was a mess, and the situation outside wasn't much better. Please search on Baidu for the most complete information!

An ambulance was parked downstairs in the teaching building. Although the siren wasn't on, the flashing lights were constantly on.

Soon, a group of doctors carrying a stretcher passed through the corridor outside the top class again, and this time there were not only doctors, but also several students.

Li Lechen glanced out into the corridor.

Luo Li?!

There's a class monitor too?!

So... obviously the stretcher is carrying students from Class 7!

The top class that Xiang Gang just came to is full of top students who are buried in doing problems, teachers who only care about grades, and classmates from the original class who have been together for two years, so their relationship is naturally much better.

So, Li Lechen rushed out.

That's perfect, because this way I don't have to face the English teacher anymore, which naturally avoids the things I did before, like browsing Taobao to buy Viagra and creating chaos with cockroaches.

"What's going on? What's going on?"

Li Lechen rushed out of the classroom, stood with Luo Li, and followed a group of doctors carrying stretchers out.

"Gu Xiaoman suddenly developed a high fever and fainted!" Class monitor Huang Yingying explained hurriedly.

"I'll go with you!"

So, three students, three doctors, and Gu Xiaoman, carrying a stretcher, got into the ambulance.

Gu Xiaoman had already lost consciousness, and the ambulance was administering an IV drip.

In the car, Huang Yingying couldn't help but ask the accompanying doctor, "Doctor, what's wrong with her?"

It's not clear yet.

Without a diagnosis, it's really unclear.

A deathly silence fell over the car once more. Everyone was on edge.

After a long while, Li Lechen spoke up: "Have you contacted Gu Xiaoman's family?"

“Gu Xiaoman lives with her grandmother, who has difficulty walking,” Huang Yingying explained.

"And her parents..."

Li Lechen didn't ask any further questions because, judging from Huang Yingying's expression, he knew that Gu Xiaoman's parents' matter probably had nothing to do with her. Either they didn't have anything to do with her, or even if they did, they certainly weren't taking care of her.

The ambulance drove very fast, and the journey usually took about ten minutes, so it arrived in about half the time.

Then, through the green channel, the three watched as Gu Xiaoman was wheeled into the emergency room.

A long wait ensued.

"Which of you two will come with me to Gu Xiaoman's house? Her grandmother doesn't know the situation yet," Huang Yingying asked.

"Me!" Luo Li was the first to raise his hand.

He disliked hospitals very much, especially the pungent smell of disinfectant.

Subconsciously, Huang Yingying glanced down at Luo Li, and her face involuntarily flushed again.

"You guys go ahead, I'll stay here and keep watch. I'll contact you if there are any problems." Li Lechen also volunteered to stay behind.

In the classroom, a relatively quiet and secluded place, Li Lechen needed to quickly place an order to buy the items and then resolve the issue of his restricted rights.

"Let Luo Li stay here. In case anything happens, he's quick on his feet."

"......"

Li Lechen felt that his legs were quite nimble. Besides, he was already in the hospital, so what more did he need to be nimble? However, Huang Yingying was the class monitor, and since she had said so in the end, he could only go with her.

After Li Lechen and Huang Yingying left, Luo Li sat outside the emergency room playing on his phone.

A dozen minutes later, a nurse came out of the emergency room and called out, "Are Gu Xiaoman's family members here?"

Gu Xiaoman's family? Isn't it her grandmother? But her grandmother isn't here.

Luo Li then stood up: "I am her classmate."

"Then notify her family to pay the fees." The nurse held up a form but didn't hand it directly to Luo Li, since he was referring to a classmate.

Hospitals are generally more humane nowadays; they won't refuse to treat patients if you don't pay. However, if you don't pay, there's definitely no guarantee that you'll receive proper treatment afterward.

Luo Li accepted the order without even thinking.

Seeing this, the nurse explained, "Let's prepay five thousand first."

Five thousand...

In the hospital, five thousand yuan is nothing; it's not even enough for a day's intensive care unit fees. But five thousand yuan was Luo Li's living expenses for a whole semester.

Moreover, he's already well-off; someone like Zhou Mi would spend three to five hundred a month.

"Doctor, what's wrong with Gu Xiaoman?" Luo Li asked.

"I'm not entirely sure. The doctor will tell you later. You should contact her family and pay the fees as soon as possible, and also complete the admission procedures."

After the nurse finished speaking, she went back inside.

Holding the bill, Luo Li naturally didn't have five thousand yuan to pay. His living expenses were given to him by his mother every month, and even if he took all the money out of his pocket now, it would only amount to a few dozen yuan.

So this matter has truly exceeded the scope of Luo Li's current ability to help. He then sent a message to Huang Yingying: The hospital has notified Gu Xiaoman that she needs to prepay 5,000 yuan for hospitalization fees.

Huang Yingying and Li Lechen had just arrived at Gu Xiaoman's house.

That was an old brick and wood structure in the old town of Lingcheng. Through the window, you could see a room of less than 20 square meters, crammed full.

However, although the room was dark and cramped, it was still clean and tidy.

A double bed was covered with a mat, and a thin quilt was neatly folded. Next to the bed was a folding table with food on it, covered with a thin gauze. There were also some books, neatly stacked on the table.

On the other side was an old-fashioned horizontal cabinet, several of its doors missing, with one leg propped up by a brick. Inside the cabinet was an induction cooker, and next to it, a large basket contained pots, pans, and other utensils.
