"Are you in so kind of trouble? Maybe I can help you."
Zhang Xiaoshan sensed that Xu Xiaong was not herself at the mont.
"Can, can you lend so money?"
Xu Xiaong mustered her courage and asked after a mont of silence on the phone.
She wanted to maintain her pride in front of Zhang Xiaoshan, but her current situation no longer allowed her to protect that pitiful dignity.
"How much?" asked Zhang Xiaoshan.
Although he didn’t interact much with Xu Xiaong, he had a good impression of her and saw a reflection of his forr self in her, so he was willing to help her.
Xu Xiaoshan spoke anxiously.
"One hundred thousand..."
"One hundred thousand?" Zhang Xiaoshan was taken aback.
He hadn’t expected Xu Xiaong to ask for so much money right off the bat.
Zhang Xiaoshan’s surprised tone caused a misunderstanding with Xu Xiaong, and she hurriedly added.
"Fifty thousand, you can lend just fifty thousand for now, my dad is dying, I need to save him, I, I have no other way out..."
"I know I might not be able to repay you, and we haven’t known each other long, so you don’t have to help , but, but I really can’t think of anyone else who could help , wuwuwu..."
Suddenly, Xu Xiaong on the other end of the phone broke down emotionally, hysterically sobbing.
Her collapse was instantaneous!
Zhang Xiaoshan realized the problem might not be simple and quickly asked.
"Don’t cry, tell exactly what happened, what’s wrong with your dad."
Xu Xiaong explained.
"My dad, he vomited a lot of blood, I, I found a clinic nearby, and they said my dad is not going to make it, it will cost one hundred thousand in dical fees, I, I want to save him, wuwuwu..."
"Where are you right now?"
"Opposite County First Middle School, at Hundred Herbs Hall."
"Hundred Herbs Hall?"
Zhang Xiaoshan paused briefly.
Hundred Herbs Hall was a major local pharmaceutical company with chain businesses in many places, each appendixed by the region’s na.
For example, Hundred Herbs Hall Qingshan Town branch, Hundred Herbs Hall Wanshan County branch...
Lin Yanran, who had asked Zhang Xiaoshan for help in finding Red Sun Grass, was the precious daughter of Hundred Herbs Hall.
But at this mont, Zhang Xiaoshan’s brief mont of distraction had nothing to do with Lin Yanran.
It was because he thought of Li Ya.
That night, he had asked Li Ya about the truth behind her severe bleeding, which was due to a wrong prescription given by a clinic near County First Middle School.
Xu Xiaong on the phone had just ntioned that she was at Hundred Herbs Hall, opposite County First Middle School.
Could it be the sa place?
"Alright, hold on, I will bring the money to you right away."
"Rember, no matter what that doctor tells you, don’t listen to him, don’t trust him, you must wait for to co."
"Okay, I’ll wait for you."
Xu Xiaong hung up the call.
At this mont, Zhang Xiaoshan was sprinting towards County First Middle School. If Xu Xiaong’s encounter was indeed with the sa doctor Li Ya had ntioned, her situation could be very dangerous.
And Xu Xiaong, after hanging up the phone, returned with heavy steps to the clinic behind her.
In the treatnt room of the clinic lay a devastated middle-aged man with pale face and scars all over, Xu Xiaong’s disabled father.
There was also a fat old man in a white lab coat standing nearby.
The old man was probably in his fifties, his granddaughter older than Xu Xiaong, but those sleazy, bean-like eyes of his kept leering at Xu Xiaong’s innocent and slender body through his thick glasses, even quietly swallowing his saliva.
Clearly, he was a dirty old man.
Zheng Jianjiang.
With backdoor dealings, he had joined Huichun Hall, been reported for selling fake drugs, and had even caused soone’s death in the past. However, he had so strong connections in the Health Education Bureau departnt, so no one had been able to touch him.
The scoundrel doctor Li Ya ntioned, who often took the opportunity to bully female students, was him.
He would often secretly prescribe dication to visiting girls that they shouldn’t take, then wait for their condition to worsen and coerce them into giving him what he wanted under duress.
A real beast.
"Miss, how’s the money coming along? Your father’s illness is critical; if we don’t rush the treatnt, I can’t guarantee his life," said Zheng Jianjiang, adjusting his glasses, with a grave look at Xu Xiaong’s tempting face, saliva almost dripping as he spoke.
Clearly, in his eyes, Xu Xiaong had fallen into his trap; she was nothing more than a lamb to the slaughter!
At this ti, all he needed was to scare Xu Xiaong a little more, and he could make the young and beautiful Xu Xiaong obediently submit...
