The two chatted and laughed about the amusing things that happened at school these days.
Miao Shuang suddenly rembered the class reunion in a few days: "Qiaoqiao, there’s a class reunion next week, do you want to co with ?"
Luo Qiao smiled faintly: "I’m not going. I never stayed long at each grade, my relationship with the classmates is just average, so I won’t bother them."
Miao Shuang put away the perfu she was playing with: "Listen to yourself, if you went, they’d probably be too happy."
Luo Qiao smiled but didn’t say anything.
At this mont, soone called Miao Shuang from the doorway, and Miao Shuang responded, heading to the door, reminding Luo Qiao: "Let’s go for lunch together."
After Miao Shuang left, Luo Qiao also got busy.
Close to noon, she received an unexpected phone call: "Hello, who is this?"
The person on the other end took a while to speak: "Hello, Qiaoqiao, it’s Yao Chengxuan."
Luo Qiao was montarily stunned, it had been a long ti since they last contacted: "Uncle Yao, why are you calling?"
Yao Chengxuan felt a bit embarrassed: "Qiaoqiao, Uncle Yao is calling today because I need to ask a favor."
Luo Qiao replied: "Uncle Yao, did sothing happen at ho?"
Yao Chengxuan hesitated: "Qiaoqiao, I’m rather embarrassed to ask this, but you’re the only person Uncle Yao could think of."
Luo Qiao listened: "Uncle Yao, please tell what I can do to help."
Only then did Yao Chengxuan say: "Peng Rui lost his job earlier and partnered with soone to start a business. But they were scamd, from a small project they contracted, the partner ran away with the money, leaving them with difficulties. On top of that, soone got injured on the construction site.
The other things can be ignored, but we can’t ignore the injured person still in the hospital. I’m really out of options and had to swallow my pride"
After hearing this, Luo Qiao asked: "So, Uncle Yao, are you asking to borrow money?"
Yao Chengxuan hesitated at first but then said: "Qiaoqiao, the person is seriously injured, they barely survived, but the doctor said they need experts from the Capital City for consultation, followed by a second surgery.
Uncle Yao wanted to ask if you could co over to help with the consultation because this accident happened on Peng Rui’s contracted site, and I want to make sure they recover quickly."
Luo Qiao was sowhat troubled. Firstly, she had just returned from a long vacation, and she was really busy with the upcoming final exams, not to ntion tomorrow is Xu Shifan and He Qing’s wedding.
Luo Qiao spoke: "Uncle Yao, couldn’t they be transferred to a hospital in the Capital City?"
Yao Chengxuan sighed: "The hospital says the person is not yet out of danger and transferring is inconvenient."
Luo Qiao rubbed her forehead: "So how long has it been since the surgery was needed?"
Yao Chengxuan promptly replied: "Two days, the doctor said they still need to coordinate with the experts in the Capital City for consultation, and only after that can the date for the second surgery be decided."
After considering this, Luo Qiao replied: "Alright, once the consultation ti with the experts from the Capital City is fixed, give another call. If I have ti, I’ll co over."
Yao Chengxuan was sowhat agitated: "Qiaoqiao, thank you so much."
As the conversation ca to an end, both sides fell into silence.
Yao Chengxuan wiped his face before continuing: "Qiaoqiao, can you lend Uncle Yao so money now?"
Luo Qiao thought briefly: "Uncle Yao, I’ll arrange for soone to send the money over to you, let know if anything cos up."
After expressing his gratitude, Yao Chengxuan hung up.
Wu Peiling, who had co over, saw her husband hang up the phone: "How did it go? What did Luo Qiao say?"
Yao Chengxuan said nothing and turned to go ho. If he weren’t completely desperate, he wouldn’t have made this call. After all, their daughter had already calculated everything with Luo Qiao so clearly.
Not to ntion, they even provided a full-ti position afterward. Reasonably speaking, he shouldn’t be seeking her help again. But right now, most of the people he knows are also going through tough tis, and he really can’t find a relative or friend to borrow money from.
The phone number was obtained by his wife sending their eldest son to the factory to ask Gao Baozhu from Qingshan Village for it. They were reluctant to give it out, but the eldest son tricked them by saying he just wanted to ask Luo Qiao for dical help, else they probably wouldn’t have given the number at all.
