"Why do you ask?" I said.

"I think Brother Lin, you are so good, you should be married, or you should have a girlfriend, right?" Chen Xia said.

"I got divorced, and then I had a girlfriend some time ago and just broke up." I forced a smile.

To be honest, my relationship history is a bit bumpy, and I have experienced a lot during this time, and it is precisely because of this that I drove a long distance to Lijiang to relax, hoping to adjust my state and return to my work.

"Do you have children? Who is that older sister sitting in the back seat during the day? Chen Xia said curiously.

"There are no children, the one in the car during the day is my former college classmate, and she took my car to Lijiang, that's all." I explained.

The relationship between me and Wan Lin, I can't explain it to Chen Xia in a few words, it's very complicated, I can't finish talking about it in a few hours, and Chen Xia and I have just met, although I helped her, but we can't be considered real friends yet, after all, the time we have known is too short.

"Brother Lin, if you don't mind, I want to be your girlfriend." Chen Xia bit her lip lightly, and her face turned red.

Hearing Chen Xia's words, I was a little confused, I didn't think she would have such thoughts.

Chen Xia is only twenty-one years old, and I am already thirty years old, and we are nine years apart, which is a big age difference, and if she has to promise her to be physically responsible because I paid for her brother's surgery, then I think it is very inappropriate, and I don't want to take advantage of her, because I know that she has never been in a relationship.

"If you think that I am helping you and want to have further development with you, then you are wrong, I don't want you to have this kind of thought." I refused.

"This--" Chen Xia's face was full of embarrassment and she didn't know what to do.

"Let's go to the hotel and rest first." I said.

In the following time, Chen Xia and I didn't say anything more, and we opened two rooms in the hotel, one for each person.

When we arrived at the hotel, we exchanged contact information, and I told Chen Xia that she would have to go through the discharge procedures for her brother early tomorrow morning, and then transfer to the hospital in Kuncheng for treatment, and I would drive them there so that she would not have any psychological pressure, and I also said, I will help her, I have experienced similar situations before, and I am just out of sympathy.

When I got back to my room, I was so tired that when I got to bed, I fell asleep.

The next morning, when I got up, Chen Xia made a phone call with me, and after we had breakfast, we went to the hospital room and met Chen Xia's parents and younger brother.

"You, you're Mr. Lin, thank you, thank you really for helping us!" When Chen Xia and her father saw me, they hurriedly held my hand.

"Uncle, now Chen Liang's surgery is important, let's go through the discharge procedures for him first, have you eaten breakfast?" I smiled.

"Mm-hmm, we ate, I'll bring the food." Chen Xia and her father nodded heavily.

Soon, Chen Xia went to discharge her brother from the hospital, and then the family cleaned up, and our car rushed towards Kuncheng.

Chen Xia sat in my passenger seat, while Chen Xia's parents and younger brother sat in the back seat.

Through the rearview mirror, I glanced at Chen Xia's parents and younger brother, and I could see that these parents are now very down-to-earth, and we also chatted along the way.

I didn't expect Chen Liang's grades to be so good, it can be said that he is the best in the county, it is now August, and the school will start in September, I can imagine that Chen Liang is in his third year of high school, as long as he maintains the standard, then it is not difficult to be admitted to university.

Near noon, we came to the People's Hospital in Kuncheng, I registered with Chen Xia and asked Chen Liang to have a face-to-face consultation, and after Chen Liang's medical records were read by the doctor, he said that he would do a few tests and then confirm it.

When the doctor finishes the diagnosis and says that surgery can be arranged, let's not worry, say that the surgery is not very risky, and that coronary artery stenting is mature.

In the afternoon, I arranged for Chen Liang to be hospitalized, and as for the total cost of 50,000 yuan, I handed it over to Chen Xia and asked her to pay for it.

In the ward, Chen Xia's parents and younger brother were still a little nervous, because the operation was scheduled for tomorrow morning.

"Uncle and aunt, don't worry, this is actually a minor operation, there will be no risk, this is a big hospital, there is no problem, after the operation and rest for a few days, Chen Liang can be the same as a normal person." I comforted.

"Uh-huh!" Chen Xia's mother nodded heavily.

"Xiaolin, I don't know how to thank you, you are the great benefactor of our family, I don't know when I can pay you back this money, I, I--" Chen Xia and her father said excitedly, and suddenly 'poof', knelt in front of me.

"I can't help it, uncle, don't do this!" I hurriedly held Chen Xia's mother.

"Liangliang, don't kowtow to Brother Lin yet, he saved you!" Chen Xia's father said stubbornly.

"Brother Lin, thank you!" Chen Liang also knelt down.

"Don't, don't be like this, if you want to repay me, then you should study hard, if you can be admitted to university, you will repay me, don't do this!" I was busy helping Chen Liang.

"Hmm!" Chen Liang's eyes were moist and he nodded heavily.

Looking at the excited appearance of this family at the moment, I was also happy for them in my heart, and suddenly felt that I had done a good deed this time.

Although 50,000 yuan is a lot for me, I think it is worth it, because it makes me feel very down-to-earth, and I suddenly feel that helping others will also be satisfied, this emotion is indescribable, that is, I feel that I did not come to this world in vain, at least I can do something for people in difficulty.

"That uncle and aunt, Liangliang, Chen Xia, it's almost time, I'm leaving." After about half an hour, I had the idea to go.

"Huh? Are you going to leave so soon? Chen Xia's mother asked, and Chen Xia's father and brother also looked at me in surprise.

"I'm planning to travel to Lijiang this time, Xiaoxia knows." I forced a smile.

"Uh-oh." Chen Xia's mother nodded suspiciously.

"Xiaolin, then you should pay attention to safety when driving." Chen Xia and her father said hurriedly.

Saying goodbye to Chen Xia's parents and younger brother, Chen Xia sent me to the parking lot, and the moment I took out the car keys, Chen Xia suddenly hugged me tightly.

Being hugged by Chen Xia like this, I felt heartfelt warm, and I also hugged her and patted her back.

"Brother Lin, how can I repay you, you are the great benefactor of our family, will we meet again?" Chen Xia had tears in her eyes, and she looked at me like this.

"If you have a chance in the future, you can work hard." I said.

"Hmm." Chen Xia nodded.

Waving at Chen Xia, I got into the car.

As I drove out of the hospital, I looked in the rearview mirror to see Chen Xiamu seeing me off, wiping tears from her eyes and a happy smile on her face.

Back at the hotel where I stayed last night, I had just walked into my room when my phone rang.

Seeing that it was Wan Lin's phone, I picked up the phone angrily.

"Hey, Lin Nan, where have you been? Why is there no car in the parking lot, are you in an accident? Where are you now, the woman? Wan Lin said eagerly.

"Why should I tell you?" I said.

"Hey, you promised me to send me to Lijiang, why do you have to regret it, where did you go, why is the car not in the hotel, and the phone will not answer messages?" Wan Lin continued.

"I'm in the hotel room and I'm tired right now!" After I said that, I hung up the phone.

Yesterday, I didn't have a good rest, I went to the county hospital in her hometown with Chen Xia in the middle of the night, and this morning I set off early in the morning, drove for several hours, and arranged for Chen Xia's younger brother to be hospitalized and operated.
