"Could she be..."

Tang Xingxing felt unbelievable at his guess.

The little girl is about 12 or 13 years old. Her clothes are very old and can only be considered clean. She has eyebrows similar to Liu Er's and is also infected with AIDS.

What a coincidence.

Duan Chaosheng stretched out his hand to pull the little girl up.

But she curled up timidly, and Duan Chaosheng's hand stopped in mid-air.

The little girl's expected beating and scolding did not come. She looked up blankly, and Duan Chaosheng smiled: "I'll pull you up."

She was stunned for a moment, and when she realized what she was doing, she was being helped up by her good-looking big brother.

She immediately distanced herself from him, bowed five steps away, and whispered, "Thank you."

"What are you hiding from? Are you afraid that we will eat you?" Tang Xingxing said with a smile.

The little girl explained nervously: "No, I'm not hiding from you. I have a bad disease and I will, will infect it to you..."

Tang Xingxing meant it as a joke, but when he heard this answer, he felt a little uncomfortable.

"Is your father's name Liu Er?" Tang Xingxing wanted to confirm.

Didn't Liu Er take that professor to the hospital during the day? It stands to reason that she should be receiving treatment now. Even if she is not well, she will be resting at home. Why is she dragging her seriously ill body on the street to pick up garbage?

"You know my dad?"

The little girl was a little surprised.

Tang Xingxing wondered: "He asked someone to pay your medical bills. Why did you come outside instead of staying in the hospital?"

The little girl bit her lip, shook her head, and remained silent.

Duan Chaosheng frowned: "Take her to the hospital for treatment first."

Now that we've encountered it, we can't pretend it's none of our business.

"No, no, big brother, don't waste money. I can't cure it. Thank you."

She quickly refused and limped to the next trash can to rummage.

"You have worked so hard to live. If you get an opportunity, don't refuse it."

In order to survive, I sell plastic bottles to make living expenses, and I live hard.

She froze and met those cold eyes. At that moment, it seemed as if all her thoughts were seen through by the other party.

After a while, she nodded.

…

"Right ahead."

Liu Er couldn't wait to bring Professor Lu and the young man to the hospital's payment window. He rubbed his hands and said, "Professor, pay here."

Professor Lu nodded, and the young man immediately took out his card and stepped forward to line up.

The queue was very fast. When they arrived, the nurse looked at Liu Er, paused, and then said: "The hospitalization fees and medical expenses owed before were a total of 280,000."

Professor Lu looked at the payment slip. It said Liu Xiaoxiao, thirteen years old, female, which was indeed consistent with what Liu Er said.

Without much hesitation, the young man swiped his card.

After confirming that the medical expenses were settled, Liu Er felt happy and smiled with gratitude: "Thank you, you are such good people!"

Professor Lu nodded, "Let's go."

"Where to go?" Liu Er wondered.

Professor Lu was surprised: "Of course I'm going to see your daughter."

"This..." Liu Er hesitated, lowered his head, and his eyes were a little panicked.

The nurse next to me saw it and sighed.

Professor Lu frowned: "Why, are you lying to me?"

"No, of course not." Liu Er waved his hands quickly, knowing that he couldn't hide, so he gritted his teeth and said, "He is here, come with me."

Professor Lu softened his expression and entered the elevator with Liu Er. When they arrived at the door of the ward, he heard the sound of the game.

After opening the door, Professor Lu's face instantly darkened.

"This is the thirteen-year-old sick daughter you're talking about?!"

There was a sixteen-year-old boy lying on the hospital bed, playing games with a brand-new Blueberry mobile phone and cursing.

"You idiot! What does a mage do for a living? Why don't you hurry up and come to support? You idiot."

Professor Lu's face was extremely ugly. When he walked in, he saw that the name of Liu Xiaoxiao, thirteen years old, was written on the male's bed card.

Now, there was something else he didn't understand.

This man raised money to treat his son under the guise of treating his daughter.

Professor Lu did not expect that he was deceived.

"I need an explanation!"

Professor Lu leaned on his crutches and clicked twice. His voice was a little loud because of his anger.

The boy cursed without raising his head: "Keep your fucking voice down! I can't hear the signal anymore!"

"You, you!"

Professor Lu's chest was rising and falling, obviously very angry.

The young man comforted him in a low voice, patted his back to reassure him, and took out the pills for him to take.

Liu Er was a little embarrassed. He stepped forward and pushed him a little, smiled at Professor Lu, lowered his head and whispered: "Son, this is a kind person who helps us pay for medical expenses. What are you talking about? Apologize quickly."

"Oh, thank you old man, I just said it so casually, don't mind."

When the boy heard this, he gave them a perfunctory look and then immersed himself in playing with his mobile phone.

Liu Er touched the boy's head and was slapped away by him. He seemed to have been used to it and didn't care.

The young man asked: "He has AIDS?"

For the sake of patient privacy, no specific disease was written on the bedside card.

"Yes...the two brothers and sisters both got it, it's not because, forget it, let's not mention it, alas..."

Liu Er shook his head helplessly, as if he couldn't talk about the past, so he avoided talking about it.

"Professor, it is mother-to-child transmission."

Both brothers and sisters are sick, so this is the only possibility.

The incubation period of AIDS is very long. Liu Er may have just discovered it now, and he could only save one person with the money he had, so it was not surprising that he chose to save his son.

And why Liu Er doesn't want to mention it? It's very likely that his wife has cheated on her.

Professor Lu's face became slightly normal, but there was still something he couldn't figure out: "Where is your daughter? Why do you need to use your daughter's name to register?"

Liu Er grimaced, "You also know my situation. I only have enough money to keep my son in the hospital, and my poor daughter can only recuperate at home."

He spread his hands and said, "There is nothing we can do about this!"

"Forget it." Professor Lu didn't want to ask any more questions, "I'll also hospitalize your daughter tomorrow. I've paid for both their brother and sister's treatment."

"No." Before Liu Er could say anything, the boy was the first to speak.

He finally put down his mobile phone and said, "Why are you giving money to that loser? I want to buy a game laptop. Old man, my dad said you are a kind person and you want to help our family. Just buy it for me."

Professor Lu was shocked: "You said your sister is a loser?"

"Is there anything strange? She will get married sooner or later, and she will be a member of another family. My father worked hard to raise her, but after she gets married, she will serve others. Who will wash clothes and cook in our family?

"

The boy curled his lips: "What's more, her little gift is not enough for the down payment of a house now, so she is a loser."

Liu Er stood aside and nodded in agreement.

Professor Lu was so angry that he kept stamping his cane: "You are simply unreasonable!"

"Shang Ying, let's go!"

"Hey, hey, old man, are you leaving now? You haven't bought me the game book yet!"
