Chapter 12 Everything is for the money

After the gangsters were driven away, Xiao Yi came to the proprietress and the girl and asked about their situation.

The landlady's name is Deng Ping, and the girl's name is He Yao. They have a mother-daughter relationship and have always been dependent on each other.

In the past five years, Xiao Yi has not seen Deng Ping's husband come here. Deng Ping should have been divorced long ago.

"Thank you, Xiao Yi. If it weren't for you, my daughter would have been brutally murdered tonight." Deng Ping thanked her sincerely.

He Yao quickly straightened her clothes, hugged her legs and sat aside, crying quietly.

Xiao Yi knew that she had been hit hard and couldn't help but comforted: "Xiaoyao, it's okay. What happened? Can you tell me?"

Deng Ping sighed and said: "This whole thing is all my fault. He and I divorced seven years ago, and it was I who raised Yao'er.

A month ago, my ex-husband suddenly asked me to borrow money, saying that he owed money and someone was after him. If I didn't borrow the money, he would die.

I had no choice but to lend him tens of thousands of my savings. Unexpectedly, less than half a month later, he would come to borrow money from me again and come back to me several times.

I had no money to lend him, so he exposed my address to people who owed him money, and then we ended up in this situation."

Xiao Yi nodded and roughly understood the situation. When he saw the injury on Deng Ping's leg, he said, "Aunt Deng, you are injured. Let me take you to the hospital."

"No, no, it's a minor injury. I can just go home and bandage it. Going to the hospital will cost a lot of money." Deng Ping refused.

The other party refused to go, and Xiao Yi had no choice but to take the initiative to send them home.

Their home is nearby. It is an old residential building and looks rather messy.

However, the home is clean and tidy, and although the room is not big, it is very cozy.

"Xiao Yi, thank you. You helped us so much today, but you must pay attention to those gangsters in the future. I'm afraid they will retaliate." Deng Ping ordered.

Xiao Yi smiled lightly, "Don't worry, if they dare to come, I would like to see how many moves they can make in my hands."

At this moment, He Yao was in a better mood. She looked at the other party with admiration and said, "Brother Xiao Yi, you are so powerful. When are you going to teach me some self-defense moves?"

Xiao Yi smiled and said: "As a girl, if you encounter such a situation, run away if you can. This is the correct self-defense technique."

He Yao pouted and said nothing more.

Seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Yi said a few words and left. He bought some food, returned to the hospital, and stayed there all night.

At nine o'clock the next morning, Guo Caifen and Guo Zhengming walked over slowly, talking and laughing along the way.

After entering the room, they stopped laughing when they saw Xiao Yizheng looking at them seriously.

"Old Xiao, what's wrong with your health? Are you sick when you go out to rent a house?" Guo Caifen said pretendingly.

Xiao Yi frowned and said in a deep voice: "No need to pretend anymore, you already knew that my dad is sick."

When Guo Caifen heard what the other party said, she knew she couldn't pretend anymore and nodded, "Yes, we have known about it for a long time, but what's the use of knowing it? We don't have money to see a doctor."

"Then when you knew I won five million, why didn't you call me and tell me about it?" Xiao Yi asked, suppressing his anger.

"Tell you what? I finally won five million, but I still live a good life with this money? Lao Xiao's disease is terminal and a bottomless pit. Even if all the money can be cured? It's just a waste. What's more?

I also want to leave money for Zhengming to buy a house and marry a wife, so this money cannot be used indiscriminately." Guo Caifen said confidently, without feeling any debt at all.

Xiao Yi slowly clenched his fists. If his father hadn't been here, he would have gone crazy.

"Yi'er, you don't have to blame them. It was all my idea. I asked them not to tell you because I was afraid of affecting your normal life." Xiao Tao said quickly.

Xiao Yi understood that his father was protecting Guo Caifen and Guo Zhengming, so he had no choice but to suppress the fire in his heart.

"If you don't want to treat Dad, then let me spend the money." He said coldly.

Guo Zhengming smiled sarcastically, "Brother, dad's disease cannot be cured. If you have such money, you might as well buy an apartment in Yunhai City. Do you still want to live in your shabby apartment full of rats?"

"I make my own decisions about my money, I don't need you to say anything." Xiao Yi said in a deep voice.

"Okay, okay, I won't say more, then you can take good care of dad here, and mom and I will go out for a walk." Guo Zhengming said, holding Guo Caifen's arm and went out, not at all because of Xiao Tao's

I feel a little worried and sad about being sick.

Xiao Tao sighed, feeling a little disappointed, but he endured it for the sake of the harmony of his family.

"Dad, you have a good rest, I'm going to buy some food." Xiao Yi said, and as soon as he walked out of the door, he met the doctor who was about to come in.

"Are you Xiao Tao's family member?" the doctor asked.

"I am." Xiao Yi nodded.

"Come with me. I may need to tell you about Xiao Tao's condition," the doctor said.

Xiao Yi followed him to a secluded corner, and the doctor said: "Xiao Tao's condition is very bad. He has reached the advanced stage of pancreatic cancer. I'm afraid he will only have two or three months left."

Xiao Yi's heart sank, and it was hard to accept it.

"Doctor, is there no other way?" he asked with a glimmer of hope.

The doctor shook his head, "You know this disease. In the last few days, the only thing you can do is to make him feel better, maybe he can live a few more days."

After saying this, the doctor left.

Xiao Yi's heart was extremely heavy, like a huge stone pressing him down, making him feel powerless.

"Only two or three months?" He murmured to himself. With the current medical conditions, there was no possibility of treatment.

He suddenly thought of someone, that was Zhou Lingxiao.

The other person has lived for ten thousand years, so maybe there is a way.

But then he shook his head. Zhou Lingxiao's identity was too strange, and he didn't know what trouble he would cause if he went to find her.

"Apart from Zhou Lingxiao, the only one left is Tan Ning." Xiao Yi thought.

Tan Ning's level is C, which is one level higher than ordinary people. And the other party seems to be from a mysterious department. Maybe this department has the possibility of curing cancer.

"I must find her." Xiao Yi thought to himself.

He went outside to buy breakfast. As soon as he returned to the door of the ward, he saw a familiar figure, which made him startled.

"Are you back?" came a sweet voice, it turned out to be Zhao Mei.

Xiao Tao was also smiling at this moment, obviously he was very happy talking to Zhao Mei just now.

Xiao Yi's heart suddenly sank and his brows furrowed. He had no idea why Zhao Mei came here. Didn't the two of them break up already?

But seeing how happy his father was now, Xiao Yi remembered the doctor's words and couldn't bear to tell him that he had broken up. He could only coldly go over and nod to Zhao Mei, and then handed the breakfast to Xiao Tao.

While handing over breakfast, he glanced at Zhao Mei and saw the information on her body.

[Name: Zhao Mei]

[Age: 26]

[Gender: Female]

[Level: D level]

[Skill: None]

[Status: Even if you win the lottery, it must still be mine?!]

The moment he saw the other party's state, Xiao Yi finally understood the other party's purpose.
