Chapter 92: Chapter 093 Confession (4)
Lou Xi went to the hospital as fast as she could. By coincidence, it was the same hospital where Qin Mobai had previously stayed.
Upon arrival, she found that Bai Lu’s mother only had a simple bed set up outside the hospital room, without even having a proper ward, incomparable to the high-class room Qin Mobai had stayed in before.
"Well... I won the lottery! Just use it first!" What Lou Xi didn’t tell Bai Lu was that this money was given to her by Rong Zhi before. She planned to find a chance to return it to Rong Zhi, but she didn’t expect Bai Lu to need money now, so she thought she’d repay Rong Zhi after earning some money later...
After greeting Uncle and Auntie, Lou Xi pulled Bai Lu to the stairwell. Seeing Bai Lu looking lost and helpless made Lou Xi’s heart ache.
"Where did you get fifty thousand from?" Bai Lu looked shocked. She knew Lou Xi’s family wasn’t well-off either, and she had just found a job—how could she have so much money all of a sudden?
A hundred thousand, it really sounds like a lot...
"Where did you get the money? You’re as broke as I am!"
"I’m in the corridor on the 3rd floor of the inpatient department."
As soon as the call connected, Rong Zhi bombarded her with questions.
"Wait there, I’m coming right away!"
"I just have some..." Saying this, Lou Xi took out a card from her pocket, "Take it first. There’s fifty thousand on this card. It’s not much, but use it as a stopgap while we figure out the rest!"
It was said that Bai Lu’s mother had kept her illness a secret from her initially; today, they couldn’t hide it any longer, so they finally told Bai Lu.
At this moment, her phone rang.
"A lot... a single course costs a hundred thousand. My parents are honest workers; they don’t have that kind of money, and I haven’t graduated yet..."
Seeing Bai Lu’s mother settled in, Lou Xi also breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Lu’s eyes widened. She originally planned to tell the school about her situation, at least to gather some money first so they wouldn’t be kicked out of the hospital.
"You’re at the hospital? What illness? Which room? I’m coming over now!"
She thought it might be Qin Mobai waking up, so after telling Bai Lu, she ran out to answer the call.
"Xixi, thank you. I will definitely pay you back as soon as I earn some money." Bai Lu tightly grasped Lou Xi’s hand.
"Don’t worry, how much more do you need?"
Huh... How did Brother Rong know she was at the hospital? Moreover, why was he so concerned, it was really a first!
"I have some money here, you take it first!"
Bai Lu really needed the money, and fifty thousand could support her family for a long time, leaving her unable to find a reason to refuse.
What Lou Xi didn’t know was, a storm was brewing because of this card...
But unexpectedly, it was Rong Zhi calling.
"Xixi, I’m sorry. I really had no other choice but to call you... The hospital said there’s no standard room available for my mom, and we can’t afford a deluxe room, not to mention the treatment costs ahead... I honestly have no idea what to do now." Bai Lu spoke as tears began to fall.
This morning Bai Lu was still fine during class, but now her eyes were red, yet she couldn’t break down; she was the only daughter in her family. )
Bai Lu used the card to pay the costs, and the hospital immediately arranged a room for them. Although it was a shared room with three people, it was better than staying in the corridor!
After saying this, Rong Zhi hung up the phone, and within five minutes, he arrived!
