C12 (1/2)
The youngest ones are newborn babies, the oldest ones are old and white-haired, men and women of all ages, young and old, and getting sick doesn't matter if you're rich or poor or old.
As they passed by a sickroom, people were crying miserably. There were people who were scolding the heavens for being unfair, their husbands for not being able to do anything, and even people from the hospital for having dark hearts.
Chen Wenhao was used to these kinds of things, so he stood in the corridor and smoked a cigarette. The gentle and refined expression on his face was not affected by these kinds of things.
Seeing Shen Chuxin opening the door and looking at him, he smiled at her.
The two of them went downstairs and sat in the chairs beside the flower beds.
Shen Chuxin looked at the people who were rushing to and fro in the hospital, quietly retracted his gaze, smiled and asked, ”Dr. Chen, what's the matter?”
Ever since ChenChen's illness was detected, she no longer had the energy to think about anything else. Her mind was just calculating how long the money in her account could last, and if there was no bone marrow match, she wanted to try to find the person directly related to ChenChen.
Regardless of what it was, it was still Dawn's hope to survive.
”I have some classmates and friends here. If you have any difficulties, you can ask me for help.”
A trace of confusion flashed in Shen Chu's eyes, his pupils gradually contracted, the smile on his face could not be maintained anymore.
”We're not familiar with each other.”
Moreover, she had rejected him outright. She did not believe that he had not heard what she had said last time.
She had never thought that she would ever meet this man again.
Especially at a time like this.
”But among the people you knew in A City, I am barely a stranger, am I not?” Chen Wenhuo smiled warmly. He threw the cigarette butt into the trash can beside him and flicked his slightly wrinkled white shirt.
”Thank you for your kind intentions, but for no reason at all, I do not wish to trouble someone who isn't related to me. Goodbye.” Shen Chu saw the curtains being drawn in one of the wards on the seventh floor, so he stood up and left.
Chen Wenhuo, who was behind her, did not stop her. He just sat there and smiled at her straight back as she left.
Old Madam Su's working hours got shorter and shorter. When Little Su learned that she was sick in the morning, she did her best to withdraw from the school's activities, and even skipped unimportant classes or classes that she could miss. He wanted to leave the Su residence as late as possible and return to take over Shen Chuxin's place.
Shen Yuxin was extremely grateful for this.
Old Madame Su had even mentioned paying her this year's salary in advance. If there really were any difficulties, she would call her daughter-in-law who was far away in France. With the advance of 2 years' worth of money, Shen Chuxin's eyes turned red the moment she heard that, but she didn't shed tears. She smiled and said, ”Thank you. ”If it's money, I still have some.”
The key was not money, but finding the right bone marrow as soon as possible and getting the hospital to schedule the surgery as soon as possible.
Shen Yue's heart had more time to accompany Chenchen. One time, Chenchen said happily, ”Mommy, if you knew I was sick, you could have accompanied me like this. I should have been sick earlier, this way you could have spent more time with me!”
A six year old child, yet he didn't know how terrifying this disease was.
Shen Yuxin touched his face, kissed his forehead and didn't say anything.
The attending physician in the hospital suggested that they should go through the discharge procedures first. They could come to the hospital every few days and save some money. If there were any special circumstances, she would come over at any time. Shen Yuxin also knew how difficult it was to find a match bone marrow, so she quietly went through the discharge procedures the next day.
Just as he was about to bring Chen Chen Chen back to Li's home, he received a call from Old Lady Su.
”I heard Little Li say that Dawn will be discharged today. Little Shen, I told you a long time ago that it's fine for you to bring your child to stay here. ”You should think about it now.” Old Man Su brought up the matter again, hoping that she would consider it carefully.
Shen Chu Xin thanked him in her heart and took Chenchen back to her house.
Grandpa Li, who went to visit his old comrade-in-arms in the neighboring province, didn't tell him about Chen Chen's illness because they were worried that he would come back in a hurry and their bodies wouldn't be able to take it. But today, he suddenly came back without anyone informing him.
Grandma Li couldn't hide it anymore, so she told Old Man Chen's illness before Shen Chuxin came back. This old man also had a short temper. After hearing that, he threw the tea set and smashed the chair, blaming her for not telling him about such a big thing. Shen Yuxin and her son just happened to hear them arguing when they went upstairs.
The neighbors all came out and winked at her, indicating that she should be careful of the old man's temper when she entered the room, so as not to frighten Chen Chen.
Shen Chu thought for a moment, then placed ChenChen in the neighbor's Auntie Zhao's house and waited for her, ”Darling, you have to be good. Mommy will come over to pick you up later, okay?”
Although Chen Chen tried his best to hide the fear in his heart, but how could the panic that flashed in his eyes escape Shen Chu Xin's eyes?
The old tutor was a bit impatient and a bit irritable, so even if Chen Chen was afraid, she still … A little scared.
When he went back, he would go and hang his head in apology after closing the door. He kept coaxing the old man to the point that he couldn't fall anymore. Shen Chuxin quickly tidied up the mess on the floor, pushing Grandma Li into the kitchen to make tea for the Old Master.
When the old man sitting on the sofa saw them all frightened, he yelled in annoyance, ”It's obviously your fault first!” Why does it feel like he is an outsider?
