"Boss... Can you hear me? Ran Jiang's hurried tone came from the other side of the phone, panting as if he had just experienced a rapid long-distance run.

Cao Aiqian sat up from the bed with a sigh: "What's the matter?" ”

"My sister... My sister... She's dying! He spoke in a nervous and anxious voice, with a hint of a strong cry that wanted to be disguised, "I... I don't know what I would do without her...... All I can think of is you! ”

"Don't worry, I'll look for you right away where you are." Cao Aiqian put his mobile phone on the bed and turned on the hands-free, and took a coat in the closet with one hand and put it on his body.

Sengkang winter in December was colder than any winter in Cao Ai's memory. Especially at night, she stood under the dim street lamp and tried to wrap her coat tightly, and the pedestrians on the side of the road hurried with their heads down.

A light gray taxi pulled up in front of her, slowly rolled down the window and asked her where she was going, smiling kindly, and speaking in a tone that was white in the cold air.

The car quickly stopped at the entrance of Shengkang Hospital, and simply paid the fare and trotted to the hospital lobby.

"Hello, this lady, do you have an appointment?" Inside the reception desk, the sweet voice of a little girl in a nurse's uniform sounded.

Cao Aiqian raised his face to look at her, "Excuse me, there is a patient named Ran He who is hospitalized in room number one on several floors." ”

"Please follow me." The nurse receptionist made some inquiries in front of the computer and took Cao Aiqian up to the third floor by elevator.

The night is as rich as splashing ink.

Incandescent lights in the hospital illuminate the corridors.

In the long, empty corridor, there is a nursing bed that looks out of place.

Ran He curled up into a small ball, his hands were desperately dragging the thin quilt, his lips were pale and chapped without blood, his eyes were filled with tears, and the tear stains were clearly visible on his small cheeks.

The electronic clock at the bedside rattled slightly.

"Doctor Cheng, it's so cold in winter, please let my sister live in the ward, I will find a way to solve the money, and I will definitely help you get it together tomorrow morning." Ran Jiang pleaded with Dr. Cheng with an anxious expression.

Behind Ran Jiang stood a woman in a white coat with gold-rimmed glasses, looking very gentle.

But Ran Jiang knew that such people were the most difficult to deal with, because they had medical ethics that were so strict that they were desperate.

Dr. Cheng glanced at him and shook his head: "You haven't paid the medical bills and hospitalization fees for three days, and the hospital beds are tight, so we can only provide beds to patients who have paid the hospitalization fees first." ”

After speaking, he looked at Ran He who was lying on the bed again, measured her body temperature on her forehead with his hand, and left silently.

"My brother is fine, it's good that Dr. Cheng can use the spare bed in the corridor for me." Ran He said comfortingly in a slight tone, while pulling the corner of Ran Jiang's clothes with his hand.

Ran He is now sleeping on the steel frame of this nursing bed is broken and deformed, and the hospital is preparing to take it for repair or scrapping, Ran Jiang begged the nurse to stay for the time being.

Ran He's voice came from in front of Cao Aiqian, and her heart was tightly clenched.

"Boss!" Ran Jiang shouted excitedly when he saw Cao Aiqian as if he had seen a savior.

Cao Aiqian stepped forward, patted Ran Jiang on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, I will help you pay the medical expenses first." After speaking, he gave the bank card to Ran Jiang, there was not much money in it, but it could temporarily cure the immediate embarrassment.

"Boss... I..." Ran Jiang trembled a little when he spoke, he looked at Cao Ai's shallow tears and couldn't help but flow, and he wanted to thank him but found that he couldn't say a word.

"You go pay the bill first, I'll go to the doctor in the duty room to change the ward for Ran He." After Cao Aiqian finished speaking calmly, he walked towards the duty room.

Ran He lay on the bed squinting her eyes, and when Cao Aiqian walked away, she asked softly, "Brother, who is this beautiful sister." ”

"It's someone who can save your life." Ran Jiang looked at Cao Ai's distant back and wiped the corners of his eyes with his hand.

After briefly dealing with Ran He's affairs, Cao Aiqian fell asleep on the edge of the bed groggily, she really didn't have the strength to take a taxi home alone.

At five o'clock in the morning the next day, she was awakened by the noise outside, and she looked down the hallway to see her family arguing loudly with the doctor, and the doctor-patient relationship was an unresolved problem even in 20 years.

"Boss, you're awake!" Ran Jiang pushed open the door of the ward, holding a steaming breakfast in his hand.

He must have not slept all night last night, his eyes were bloodshot, and the corners of his mouth were a little chapped, and he looked haggard.

"Hmm." Cao Ai responded lightly, she had just woken up and not yet relieved herself, her head was still a little dizzy, she raised her hand and gently pressed her temples, frowned slightly, and said, "Why did you go out so early?" ”

"Boss, I remember that you love to eat breakfast at the Shengyue Bun Shop in Dongcheng District, his house opens at five o'clock in the morning every day and closes at seven o'clock in the morning."

Ran Jiang put breakfast on the table, glanced at Ran He, who was still asleep, pulled a chair and sat down, and muttered, "Boss, you drink some milk first, I've warmed it." ”

When Cao Ai heard this, a warmth swelled up in his heart, and he looked at Ran Jiang's tired face, feeling a little distressed.

Jingle Bell ...... Bell ...... An alarm from the mobile phone reminded Cao Aiqian that it was time to go to school.

"Boss, there's something I need to tell you." Ran Jiang lowered his eyes and said a little crampedly: "I see that you were busy all night last night for Ran He's affairs, so I used your mobile phone to ask Teacher Yan for half a day off this morning." ”

"It's okay, if you don't ask for leave, I want to take leave myself." Cao Ai responded with a light smile.

The two simply ate breakfast, Cao Aiqian bought a portable folding bed for Ran Jiang so that he could take care of Ran He at night, and then took the bus back to the rental house to catch up on sleep.

She doesn't have the energy to ask Ran He what she has experienced now, and when she recovers, she will call Ran Jiang again.

When she woke up at noon, the weather outside had cleared up a lot, and the winter sun could always give people a warm and comfortable feeling, which made Cao Aiqian forget the fatigue of the night.

But even so, the dizziness from staying up all night still didn't go away, and she took the medication she had prescribed last time for low blood sugar from the drawer of her bedside table and took it.

The whole person lay limply on the soft bed and looked at the ceiling in a daze, until the call from the mobile phone interrupted her whimsy again crisply.

"Ai Qian." Ma Teng's crisp and hearty laughter came from there.

Cao Ai didn't even think about it, most of the time he asked if the last investment money had been settled, and so many days must have passed one after another.

"Mr. Ma, don't worry, I will definitely help you solve it." Cao Aiqian really didn't want to listen to Ma Teng's rambling too much, so he cut off the matter of asking him about money in advance.

A lot of things have happened lately that has upset her, and she seems to have forgotten that she has traveled to a 16-year-old high school student, and instead feels like a middle-aged person who is scheming.

Ma Teng heard her say this, exhaled comfortably, and then greeted Cao Aiqian politely with a smile.

In fact, Ma Teng didn't want to count on a 16-year-old girl, but the support of the entire family behind her, and the 4 million must be just a drop in the ocean for Cao Kowen.

Although Cao Aiqian is just an orphan adopted by the Cao Group, no one knows that the Cao couple spoiled her as the enviable daughter of Sengkang City before her death.

Even though I often hear gossip now that Cao Kouwen has always looked down on this sister, it has always been rumored in the market that the Cao couple stole a huge inheritance to her, otherwise she would not have said 4 million so easily.

As soon as Cao Aiqian entered the classroom in the afternoon, the class committee came to her to participate in the school sports meeting, and the last time the school sports meeting was held, Teacher Yan mentioned that those who performed well could represent the school in the provincial competition.

Xiao Yuanchen and Cao Aiqian can get good results in the school sports meeting every year, which is also something that Teacher Yan should be proud of in front of other teachers.

After entering high school, the school began to divide the Deyou class and the ordinary class, according to Cao Aiqian's comprehensive results in the past, she could not enter the Deyou class, if it was not for her family to suddenly donate 5 million to the school for the expansion of the school before entering the class, it would have made an exception for her to study in the Deyou class.

Fortunately, although Cao Aiqian is usually naughty and mischievous, she has a special advantage in sports, and now she seems to have easily become a top student overnight, and has become a talking point in the eyes of teachers and classmates in the whole school.
