When I pushed the door and was about to walk into the bedroom, I heard Zhou Yu's melodious voice: "Jia Ru, there is still a month." ”

My heart skipped a beat, and I closed the door, lay back on the bed quietly, and closed my eyes, but my mind was full of what he said—there was still a month. What does he mean? A month left for a wedding? Now that the wedding photos have been taken, needless to say, the wedding must be in preparation, and I, the client, know nothing but time.

If there is really a wedding, then the Zhou family should be present, and I will inevitably have to face his family members again. What kind of bad start and end will it be this time?

At least this time I was sure of one thing: nothing could separate me from him anymore.

I will meet He Xiangjie again, which is a bit unexpected to me.

It should be said that it was not an encounter, but he took the initiative to find the office.

I invited him to a private room, and he was silent as soon as he sat down. I didn't rush him, just poured him a glass of boiled water and sat down. Secretly observing He Xiangjie, his feet under the table were repeatedly overlapped, and he held a paper cup in both hands but did not take a sip of water, indicating that this person was still entangled in his heart.

I pursed the corners of my lips, since I haven't decided yet, so I might as well not come to me. Just as I was about to get up, suddenly He Xiangjie put down the cup and raised his head to look at me, "Lawyer Jia, I want to explain the departure on the day of the trial." ”

"Coach He, please speak."

He Xiangjie said: "I had already arrived at the courthouse that day and waited among the witnesses, but then I received a call from my mother, saying that I was suddenly vomiting and diarrhea and was sent to the hospital. ”

It's as simple as that? Then he still needs to think about it for so long? I asked in a whisper, "Is there something else going on?" ”

He Xiangjie's eyes dimmed, and he sighed lightly and said in a low voice: "That's right, when I arrived at the hospital, I didn't find my mother and son, and then called my mother, saying that they were in a shopping mall amusement park near the hospital, and that someone wanted to see me." ”

I finally heard what I wanted to hear: "Is it someone strolling through the bookstore?" ”

He Xiangjie nodded with difficulty, "They are waiting for me next to my mother and son having fun, I think you must understand what that means." I chuckled, "You mean to say they're using your son as a threat?" So you left that day and never came back to the courthouse? Coach Ho, that's your explanation? Don't you think it's far-fetched? ”

He Xiangjie's face became a little ugly, and he said, "You may think it's far-fetched, but it's not for me." They deliberately had my mother trick me out of the courthouse on the grounds that I was sick, and they were waiting for me to warn me. My son's blood ailment has reached the point where he has to be treated, and the most common cold and fever can make his condition worse. You also bumped into it when you had a fever last time, and after you went back, you had a fever for three days. ”

Speaking of this, he opened his phone and found a photo: "Look at what my son looks like now, do you still recognize it?" ”

When my eyes fell on the screen of my mobile phone, I couldn't help but be stunned. The scrawny kid in that photo is the same I've seen before? It's only been more than half a month.

He Xiangjie said bitterly after seeing my reaction: "I can't recognize it, I remember that when you came to the gym to find me that day, my son was still very clever and lively, but now he can only take a break from school and stay at home." ”

As a mother of a child, I also feel very sympathetic to this, but sympathy is sympathy, and the question should still be asked: "Then what is the purpose of your coming to me today?" He Xiangjie looked at me tightly: "Even without my testimony, you have won the lawsuit, can you help my son get help from the Anti-Cancer Foundation?" ”

I couldn't help frowning when I heard this, he was originally for this, but ......, "That's the Anti-Cancer Foundation, and your son has a blood disease." ”

"Blood disease is just a term in the early stage, and later it will evolve into blood cancer when the disease is severe. If it weren't for the awkward illness that couldn't be delayed any longer, I wouldn't have the face to beg you. ”

After looking at him silently for a moment, I spoke: "It's useless for you to beg me, I have no right to interfere in the affairs of the Anti-Cancer Foundation." ”

"But ......"

"He Xiangjie, if you have a case appeal today, I will consider it if you ask me to be your lawyer, but please don't bring up matters that are within my ability. I sympathize with your son's situation, and if you really want to find help from the Anti-Cancer Foundation, you should go on your own, I am just a lawyer, not an expert negotiator. ”

In the end, I sent He Xiangjie outside the door and watched him leave lonely. Tang Jin came out from the inside and asked side by side with me, "Why shouldn't he ask for it?" I turned my eyes and asked, "How?" ”

"Didn't the Anti-Cancer Foundation get it by Zhou? You just go back and mention it to him. ”

"It is true that Zhou Yu founded it, but he is not operating the foundation, he has left it to professionals to manage. Such an organization is not a random department, if any person can open a back door to seek help, then this foundation is not professional. What's more—"

Tang Jin asked with interest: "What's more?" ”

"What's more, He Xiangjie himself said that the lifeblood of his son was taken by the Wandering Bookstore, how do I know that he didn't deliberately surrender this time, but there is a conspiracy in the bottom of the wandering?"

Tang Jin laughed lowly: "Jia Ru, since you won that lawsuit, not only have you become confident, but you have also become more and more thoughtful. It seems that I don't need to remind you anymore, and I'm afraid that your sympathy will flood as soon as your head is hot. ”

Hearing this, I smiled bitterly, is my professional level so poor in Tangjin?

However, after I went back that night, I still took an opportunity to ask Zhou Yu, is blood disease also a type of cancer?

He was stunned when he heard my sudden question, and asked me in turn, "Why did you suddenly ask about this?" I looked at him strangely, "Why are you so nervous?" I'm just asking you to find out, didn't you create the Anti-Cancer Foundation? ”

He pondered for a while before he explained my confusion: "In the early stage of blood diseases, there is a problem with the hematopoietic system, which is divided into several categories, including red blood cells, white blood cells, bone marrow hyperplasia and other diseases. If it is not treated in time, it will spread in the later stage, and it may evolve into blood cancer, which is often referred to as leukemia. Most of these disorders are prevalent during adolescence. ”

Speaking of this, he paused and asked me, "Who Xiangjie found you?" ”

I have talked to He Xiangjie about his son's condition before, so when I mention blood disease today, he will guess that He Xiangjie has also come to me, which is normal. I nodded and said, "He came to the office during the day, explained some things about his dishonesty and failure to testify on the day of the trial, and hoped that I could help him get help from your foundation." ”

Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows: "You promised him?" ”

I was silent for a moment, and instead of answering, I asked, "What if I promise him?" ”

"What can I do? Naturally, I paid out of my own pocket to keep your word, who made you my wife. ”

He now uses the word "wife" a lot, and I'm no longer surprised. But he said he would pay out of pocket? I couldn't help but ask, "Why would you want to spend your own money to come out instead of going through the Foundation process?" ”

He chuckled, "You think anyone can go through the Foundation process?" What needs to be audited, not only for the condition audit, but also for the family environment, He Xiangjie, as a personal trainer in the gym, has a monthly salary of tens of thousands, sometimes even more, do you think such a family background can be approved? ”

I was really stunned by him, and He Xiangjie's problem has always been subjectively set as having no money to see a doctor, but in fact, as Zhou Yu said, in fact, with He Xiangjie's financial ability, he doesn't even look down on his children to see a doctor. So his real problem is actually mainly the child's condition, so he asked for my help not to solicit funding, but to help his son treat his disease through the medical technology that the Anti-Cancer Foundation is researching.

Thinking about it, I couldn't help but say, "Then what did you just say out of your own pocket, what's the use?" ”

Zhou Yu smiled: "It's not to cooperate with you." ”

Kicked over, he deliberately played with me? After jumping two steps away with a laugh, he turned back to me and said, "Let the surnamed He follow the rules and procedures, don't think about making ideas from you, how can my woman be made up of mind by other men." ”

"Zhou Yu!" I grinded my teeth and drank his name, "Can you be serious?" ”

"I'm serious, and I'm telling the truth."

"How long does it take to go through the procedure?" I asked.

"About three months to half a year, see if the information he submits is complete or not."

…… Wouldn't that delay the condition? But Zhou Yu said that there is no way, among the patients with cancer, there are many people who are more serious than He Xiangjie's son, and their pain is still enduring, let alone him?

I don't know if it's my delusion, but when I heard Zhou Yu say this, there was helplessness and heaviness in his tone. It may be that he founded this foundation and has seen many cancer cases, so when it comes to talking about these feelings, there will be a change in his mood.

I got up at night to go to the toilet, and when I came out of the bathroom, I heard footsteps outside the room, and then I heard two dry coughs. I didn't hear his footsteps for a while, I clearly passed in front of the door and headed in the direction of the kitchen just now, could it be that I was doing something in the kitchen?

I hesitated for a moment, opened the door lightly, looked around and didn't find him in the living room, and a faint voice came from the kitchen.

After walking a few steps closer, I heard Zhou Yu's lowered voice, he should be on the phone, but he didn't know if it was because his throat was uncomfortable or what, he was always coughing dryly. It sounds like he's talking about business, but who is looking for him in the middle of the night?
