Chapter 1 Part 2

Hospital.

Zhao Qianqian’s mother, Wang Yan, was sleeping peacefully. Zhao Qianqian spoke with the doctor outside the room, trying to understand the situation.

“When did my mother find out about the benign tumor in her brain?” Zhao Qianqian asked, her voice hoarse.

The doctor replied, “About six months ago. Ms. Wang came to the hospital because she was experiencing blurred vision and difficulty seeing clearly.”

“At that time, we discovered that the tumor was compressing her optic nerve, causing the vision problems.”

“Since it’s a benign tumor, we recommended surgical removal as soon as possible. However, Ms. Wang said she wanted to try conservative treatment and didn’t want to take the risk.”

“Actually, with today’s medical advancements, Ms. Wang is in her fifties, which isn’t considered old. If her physical condition allows, surgery is the best option.”

“Moreover, the cost isn’t high. Including the surgery and hospitalization fees, it would be at most fifty to sixty thousand yuan. After the tumor is removed, she’ll need a period of rest and can then return to her normal life.”

“Generally, benign tumors don’t become malignant. But if she refuses surgery, we can’t rule out the possibility that it might develop into a malignant one.”

Her mother isn’t afraid of the risk, Zhao Qianqian thought. She’s clearly worried about the cost of the surgery!

As the doctor spoke, Zhao Qianqian’s face grew paler with each sentence. By the end, her face was as white as paper, and she trembled as she asked, “…What would happen if it became malignant?”

The doctor said frankly, “Even after surgery, there’s a possibility of recurrence.”

Zhao Qianqian covered her mouth.

“It’s best to treat illnesses early to prevent minor conditions from becoming major ones. Don’t worry, we can still schedule the surgery in the next couple of days,” the doctor reassured her.

Zhao Qianqian steadied herself. “I’ll discuss it with my mother once she wakes up.”

“Then we’ll talk about the surgery after the patient regains consciousness,” the doctor nodded. “Please go to the counter later to pay the remaining hospitalization fees.”

Zhao Qianqian’s fingernails dug into her palm as she replied politely, “Okay.”

After giving her instructions, the doctor left.

Zhao Qianqian entered the room and slid slowly down the wall, her eyes vacant. Her wallet only had 101.5 yuan. How could she possibly afford the hospitalization fees?

For a moment, her mind went completely blank.

After a while, Zhao Qianqian regained her composure. She grabbed her phone and decided to call Liang Yan.

She had just given Liang Yan 5,000 yuan as a red envelope a few days ago. Now she had to ask her if she could get 1,000 or 2,000 back. Just the thought made her face burn with shame.

But what else could she do? She had no money in her bank account, and only a little in her wallet. Not only could she not afford the surgery, but she also couldn’t even afford to stay in the hospital room!

Thinking of her mother still unconscious, Zhao Qianqian put her pride aside and forced herself to call her friend.

“Hello, the user you are trying to reach is currently unavailable…”

Zhao Qianqian’s heart skipped a beat.

She suddenly remembered that Liang Yan had mentioned they were going on a two-week honeymoon after the wedding and would be turning off their phones to avoid work interruptions.

This meant she wouldn’t be able to reach Liang Yan during their honeymoon.

As the realization sank in, Zhao Qianqian’s vision darkened.

In truth, she’d been broke more times than she could count. In the past, she could simply work, go home, and wait for her next paycheck to roll in, and she’d be back to her carefree ways.

But this time, her financial crisis coincided with a family member’s illness, pushing her to the brink.

Staring at her contact list, Zhao Qianqian steeled herself and decided to ask a colleague for a loan.

But—

“My year-end bonus just arrived, and I invested it all. I can’t access large sums right now and only have six hundred for meals.”

“I borrowed money for a down payment on a house and am drowning in debt. I have nothing extra. Sorry, I can’t help.”

“Ask me for money? Are you kidding? I don’t have any! My year-end bonus? I spent it all night on the latest iPhone and a new laptop! It’s long gone!”

Others didn’t answer their phones at all, and she couldn’t tell if they were unavailable or deliberately avoiding her calls.

Zhao Qianqian’s hands and feet turned ice-cold, and she felt as if she’d plunged into an icy abyss. She’d never imagined that one day she’d be so desperate over a mere thousand yuan.
