On the other end of the phone, the head teacher sighed regretfully.

Duan Zilian is very good and very hopeful of being admitted to a key university, but something like this happened that had a very big impact on him.

Even, according to the current situation, the head teacher estimates that Duan Zilian may give up the college entrance examination in June next semester, even if he doesn't give up, but these things delay his studies, make his grades regress, and he can't play at the level he should have.

Hanging up the phone, Duan Zilian shook his head, put the phone aside, sat down at the desk, forcibly cheered up, and began to sort out the materials one by one.

In the past few days, Duan Zilian has been running around every day and handling all kinds of things.

The first is insurance indemnity. Such a thing is purely an accident, so Zhong Yi can be compensated by insurance, but this has to go through a series of troublesome procedures, reporting the accident, providing information, and cooperating with the investigation.

Although these things are indispensable procedures, they have to be done by one person, and he doesn't know anything about them, so that he frequently makes mistakes, either because the materials are wrong or the materials are not well prepared.

So, it's too time-consuming and laborious for him.

And it's not just this one thing he has to deal with.

In order to make more money, Zhong Yi used weekends and holidays to run piano training classes outside, but now that Zhong Yi is seriously injured and hospitalized, this training class naturally can't be held, so Duan Zilian has to contact the parents of each student in the training class, negotiate with them, and refund the tuition to them.

In addition, there are some miscellaneous trivial matters, all of which add up to make the joke exhausted.

What's more, he doesn't know anything about most of these things, which is like a blind man touching a fish, and he can only rely on himself to slowly explore, and there are a lot of mistakes and difficulties on the way.

In the past few days, Duan Zilian has been very bored, but even if he doesn't understand anything, he has to deal with these things.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Duan Zilian put down the materials in his hand, rubbed his somewhat sour eyes, and then left the room to make lunch.

Seeing Luo Lingling listening quietly to the song in the living room, Duan Zilian said to her: "Lingling, I'm going to make lunch, what do you want to eat?" ”

"Whatever." Luo Lingling replied in a casual cold voice.

Duan Zilian shrugged, since Duan Zilian said so, then he could make some side dishes casually.

Before entering the kitchen, Duan Zilian suddenly thought of something and apologized to Luo Lingling: "Oh, by the way, I'm sorry, because I've been too busy lately, and there are a lot of things, so the matter of those piano pieces may be delayed for a while." ”

"Hmm." Luo Lingling responded, her face expressionless, and she didn't seem to care about this matter.

"Don't worry, I'll do it right away when I'm done." Duan Zilian made a promise to Luo Lingling, and after saying this, he took out the ingredients from the refrigerator and began to cook.

When Duan Zilian finished lunch, Luo Xinyan happened to come back from school.

The three of them had lunch.

At the dinner table, Duan Zilian cautiously glanced at Luo Xinyan, who was feeding Luo Lingling, and said tentatively: "That, Xinyan......"

"Something?" Luo Xinyan turned her head and glanced at Duan Zilian, and the exposed right eye was not only cold, but also looked very fierce.

In a deliberative tone, Duan Zilian said cautiously: "That's it...... My mom is still in the hospital, but hospitalization costs a lot of money, and the family doesn't have much money anymore, so ......"

Although he didn't finish his words, the meaning of Duan Zilian was already obvious.

There is no way, the family is already quite poor, and now that Zhong Yi is hospitalized, not only the operation fee, but also the hospitalization fee, follow-up treatment fee and recuperation fee, etc., this series of expenses together is not what this family can afford at all.

What's more, the piano training class couldn't go on, and Duan Zilian refunded the tuition fees of those students.

Although there is insurance compensation, because the amount is relatively large, and some procedures have not yet been completed, Duan Zilian estimates that it will take at least a month for the insurance company to knock down the money.

And Duan Zilian can't wait for such a long time, and she can't afford to wait.

Therefore, by now, the family has no money now, and even the more than 7,000 yuan that Duan Zilian saved by himself has been spent.

As for asking relatives for help or something, Duan Zilian also thought about this method, but in the end he vetoed it.

The reason is very simple, Duan Zilian's grandparents died early, although he still has a few uncles and aunts, but it seems that due to the unreasonable distribution of property, those uncles and aunts had a conflict with his father and moved to live in other cities, and rarely interacted.

Therefore, since he was a child, Duan Zilian has not seen them much.

And since the car accident seven years ago, they have had no contact with their own family, as if they had severed their relationship, and Duan Zilian had no contact information about them at all.

The relatives on his father's side can't be counted on, but Zhong Yi's side is the same.

I don't know why, Duan Zilian has never heard Zhong Yi talk about her hometown, nor has she seen Zhong Yi's relatives, in this case, Duan Zilian can't ask Zhong Yi's relatives for help.

In this way, Duan Zilian seems to be isolated, but he still has the last hope.

"You want to borrow money?" Luo Xinyan looked at Duan Zilian, and her eyes seemed to become even colder.

"Hmm." Duan Zilian nodded.

Luo Xinyan and Luo Lingling have a deposit, their parents' inheritance, plus the insurance compensation for the car accident, although it cost a lot when they were hospitalized, it is estimated that there should be a lot left.

is really desperate, Duan Zilian can only borrow money from Luo Xinyan for emergency, and looks at Luo Xinyan with anticipation, even pleading, although this seems a little low, but Duan Zilian can't care so much.

However, in the face of Duan Zilian's request, Luo Xinyan coldly refused: "Don't borrow." ”

I didn't expect Luo Xinyan to refuse so simply, Duan Zi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly became a little anxious: "Xinyan, my mother needs to spend money on treatment now, and it's not that I don't ......want to pay it back."

Before she finished speaking, Luo Xinyan interrupted Duan Zilian's words, and replied the same way: "Don't borrow, say if you don't borrow, you don't borrow." Your family still owes us a debt, and now you have to borrow money from me, who knows when you will be able to pay everything you owe us? What's more, that's your mother, not my mother, whether she is dead or alive, what does it matter to me? ”

"You!" Obviously, she didn't expect Luo Xinyan to say so ruthlessly, Duan Zilian suddenly got angry and angrily slapped the case.

Luo Xinyan raised her head and looked at Duan Zilian without fear, without saying a word, but her eyes became more and more cold and fierce.

For a while, the atmosphere became solemn, and even a little tense.

After a while, Duan Zilian seemed to have given up, lowered his gaze, sat down again, and asked in a somewhat desperate voice: "Can't you really borrow it?" ”

"Don't give a penny." Luo Xinyan replied coldly.

Under the table, Duan Zilian clenched his fists hard, trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and nodded: "I know...... Money matters, I'll figure it out myself, you just didn't ask me this question, sorry...... Okay, I'm full, you can eat slowly......"

After speaking, Duan Zilian quickly cleaned up his dishes and chopsticks, poured out the leftovers in the bowl, and then returned to the room.

Luo Lingling, who had been silent, listened to the conversation between Duan Zilian and Luo Xinyan, and seemed to want to say something, but she couldn't say it, and she stopped talking.

In the room, Duan Zilian lay on the bed, put his right hand on his forehead, and stared blankly at the ceiling.

"I ...... What to do? It's true...... I'm so tired......" Slowly closing his eyes, Duan Zilian felt so powerless for the first time, and he also felt unprecedented despair.

Zhong Yi's treatment is urgent, but if he can't pay the same amount of money in time, the treatment will be delayed, and once the treatment is delayed, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Anyway, Duan Zilian couldn't imagine that consequence.

But now, he felt like he was at the end of his rope.

In addition, what Luo Xinyan just said made Duan Zi feel extremely cold.

After all these years of getting along, Duan Zilian didn't have the luxury of asking Luo Xinyan to forgive his family for the mistakes he had caused before, but he thought that Luo Xinyan no longer hated his family so much.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, she still hasn't let go of the hatred in her heart.

That's right, after all, it was her own family that destroyed their family, changed their lives, and made them what they are now, it would be strange if she could let go of her hatred for her own family......

"Heh, I blame myself for being too naïve......" opened his eyes again, and Duan Zi laughed at himself, bitter.

Taking the Evolutionary Truster out of his pocket, Duan Zilian looked at the thing and muttered to himself, "If only I could use this power to get money, it would be great, even if it was an improper way......

As he spoke, Duan Zilian sat up vigorously, held the Evolution Truster with both hands, and began to exert force, trying to pull out the Evolution Truster.

However, no matter how hard he tried, the Evolutionary Truster remained unmoved.

"Damn it! What's the use of asking you!! Duan Zi showed an angry face, and threw the Evolution Truster to the ground with all his might.

It's been a few days since he got this power, but Duan Zilian didn't know how to use it at all, and he also tried to pull out the evolutionary truster, but he didn't succeed.

This is very strange, Duan Zilian obviously feels that he can pull out the evolutionary truster, but no matter what, he just can't pull it out, it seems that some specific conditions are needed to pull out the evolutionary truster.

His heart was full of anger, but he didn't know how to vent it, Duan Zilian felt very aggrieved, clenched his fists tightly, even if his nails were pierced into his palms, he didn't feel anything.

After a long while, as if he had resigned himself to his fate, Duan Zilian slowly released his fist, staring blankly at the evolutionary truster who was thrown to the ground by himself, and finally, a thousand words turned into a tired sigh.

"I hope there's another way......"

Lying on the bed again, Duan Zilian closed his eyes, closed his eyes and recuperated, and could only pray in his heart, hoping that there would be no endless way, otherwise, he would really lose this last family member.
