all for the cub

Lele is dead.

Just when Jiang Chengchuan was busy shifting shifts and asking for leave.

Jiang Chengchuan's temporary leave was not approved, and he couldn't get away for a while, so he had to wait for the shift while going to work. Although he was very worried about Lele's condition, he had no choice but to go to work patiently.

Store manager Zhou, who had been lenient with Jiang Chengchuan for the sake of Wu Qian's face, saw that he was out of his mind during work hours, and ran to the toilet eight times a day. After two days of peace, the corner of his mouth fell below his chin again, blocking him in the safe passage He reprimanded him mercilessly.

"If you are not allowed to ask for leave, you will be lazy and play tricks, sneaking here to make a phone call under the pretext of going to the toilet?" Store Manager Zhou stared at him uncomfortably, "Xiao Jiang, there is no such thing, although this job is not a golden job, but Anyway, you are still an employee of Aijiu, so you still have to abide by the basic rules and regulations, right?"

"I'm sorry, store manager," Jiang Chengchuan apologized honestly. "My family member is sick, and the situation is complicated. I'm really worried, so I came out to make a call. I hope you understand."

Rules are dead, people’s hearts are alive. In fact, it’s not uncommon for shop assistants to run out from time to time with the excuse of going to the bathroom in their free time. That's right, the tree grows there, and everyone has the opportunity to pick the fruit. If the tree is cut down, everyone can only look at each other dumbfounded.

The reason why store manager Zhou is so competitive this time can only be said that Jiang Chengchuan is too conspicuous and unlucky.

Maybe it was because of his low-browed and pleasing attitude, the store manager Zhou reluctantly accepted, "It's useless to be in a hurry when you're sick. I'm also sending someone over to help you take over the shift as soon as possible. You'd better go to work with peace of mind. Come and let you go."

"Okay, I see." Jiang Chengchuan smiled and nodded in response.His smiling face is his shield, no matter when and where, no matter what setbacks, no matter how embarrassing or powerless, he will face it with a smile, no matter how fake and hypocritical the smile is, it can make him hold his head up magic.

Being caught by store manager Zhou, Jiang Chengchuan couldn't go out again with an excuse, so he had to go to work honestly, and let's wait for these two days.

Although others were not able to go back these days, the money was credited into Jiang Youliang's account without any delay, and in the blink of an eye, the little salary he saved was left in pitiful four figures.

Jiang Youliang and Huang Zhen made vague promises on the phone that he couldn't believe it. In this world, he only believed in money, and money was the most reliable thing. Even if there was an extra dollar, Lele might get better soon.

Unexpectedly, in just three or four days, the fake successor did not arrive, but he received the news that Lele's condition had deteriorated and he was going to be transferred to another hospital.

Jiang Chengchuan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't figure out how the pneumonia that Jiang Youliang and the others said was improving suddenly turned into severe pneumonia.Respiratory failure and tracheal infection, the doctor at the county hospital said that the child was too young and too weak, and the situation was difficult, so they were rushed to the city hospital.

Jiang Chengchuan was like a bolt from the blue, he didn't care about whether there was someone to take over, so he immediately bought a ticket and flew back.

When Jiang Chengchuan rushed to the First Hospital of Fengliang City, Lele had already been rescued and entered the intensive care unit, but the situation was not optimistic. The most frightening thing was the resulting heart failure and intracranial inflammation.

Looking at Lele, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, lying weak and thin in the isolation room, Jiang Chengchuan's eyes were red, but he had no time to grieve, and he didn't have time to ask questions. all over.

"You handed in all the money you paid earlier, but we didn't keep a cent!" Seeing Jiang Chengchuan walking out expressionlessly, Huang Zhen took the initiative to explain.

Jiang Chengchuan glanced at her and nodded, "Okay."

Seeing his lukewarm and frustrated look, Jiang Youliang gritted his teeth and wanted to teach him a lesson, but was grabbed by Huang Zhen.

"Don't mess it up, do you think he was thrown out by your shoulders when he was a child?" Huang Zhen stared at Jiang Youliang sarcastically, then turned to look at Jiang Chengchuan who had gone away, just like his mother of broken shoes, Neither yin nor yang.

Jiang Chengchuan handed in the bank card and Lele's hospital card to the payment window, and the female nurse who paid the fee looked at him twice, "The bill is 560 taels, should you use the card?"

"...Swipe six thousand five first." Jiang Chengchuan raised his eyes to look at her.

"Okay, is there any remaining cash?" The female nurse quickly swiped the card, "Please enter the password."

Jiang Chengchuan quickly pressed the password, hesitated for a moment after the card was successfully swiped, and took out another card. This was a credit card he was tricked into once. The limit was not large, because he didn't like overdraft consumption. mode, so I haven't used it much.

There is no need to swipe credit cards if you have money, let alone swipe credit cards if you don’t have money, you will always have to pay back when you come out to swipe your credit card, swiping your card is fun for a while, repaying the crematorium, he doesn’t like to do things that are not sure.

But now, even knowing that there will be pressure to repay the loan in the later period, he still has to wake up and brush his scalp.

"Finish this one for the rest."

The female nurse took the bank card, glanced at it calmly, and returned the credit card in the hospital?That's bad enough.Miserable?Or seriously ill?Or both are miserable, anyway, the more she looks at this handsome guy, the more pitiful he looks.

At the beginning, Jiang Chengchuan was still burdened with swiping his credit card, but when Lele went to rescue him for the second time two days later, he wished he could max out this credit card with a limit of only 20, and get 200, [-] million.

Dreaming has to be timed. In broad daylight, he couldn't even dream of [-] yuan, so he could only stand in front of the ATM machine at the entrance of the hospital, raising his face and holding back the liquid in his eyes.

He strode back to the door of the intensive care unit. Jiang Youliang was sitting on a chair looking at his mobile phone. When he saw him coming, he asked harshly, "Have you paid the money yet?"

Jiang Chengchuan glanced at the impatient man, "...my credit card has been maxed out."

"What do you mean?" Jiang Youliang looked unhappy.

"I've run out of money. My monthly salary is only tens of thousands of yuan. Lele's living expenses cost four to five thousand yuan. I can't save any money at all. This time, I have emptied it all," Jiang Chengchuan explained in a low voice, hoping that I can get a word of understanding and comfort from this man who is his father, telling him, it's okay, Dad will find a way.

Yet nothing.

Jiang Youliang didn't care how difficult his situation was, Huo Di turned his face away, pointed at the bag in his hand and said firmly, "Hey, now I know I have no money? What did you do earlier? What horse grains and saddles, I heard Say you cost tens of thousands of dollars for a bag, and a lot of money for a watch, why don’t you think about today when you buy these useless things?”

"Dad, I will admit how much you scold me, but can you lend me 2 yuan first, and I will find a way to pay you back as soon as Lele is discharged from the hospital!" Jiang Chengchuan didn't want to argue with him about the origin of that bag and that watch. I don't understand why he mentioned them. The most urgent thing now is to raise money to pay for the medical expenses. It doesn't matter if Jiang Youliang scolds him or even beats him up.

Of course it was impossible for Jiang Youliang to beat him up, but he just refused, "Where did I get the money! Do you think you can get rich by guarding that shabby hotel?!"

"Dad, that's your own grandson!" Jiang Chengchuan said in a deep voice, his chest heaving and his anxiety suppressed.

Jiang Youliang glanced at him with a stiff face, lowered his eyes and refused to speak.

Jiang Chengchuan has experienced the selfishness and ruthlessness of this person since he was a child, but he never expected that he would not show any human touch in this kind of situation, and he would be so cold-blooded towards his own sons and grandchildren.

With a bang, Jiang Chengchuan knelt on his knees, "Dad, I beg you!"

"No money! Are you trying to force me to death?!" Jiang Youliang stood up abruptly, yelling sternly.I don't know if I can be saved or not, and even if I am saved, I might become a fool. It is enough to drag you down as a lonely family. Do you want me to be unlucky?

After speaking, he fled away.

Jiang Chengchuan knelt stiffly in front of the empty seat, and two nurses walked past him in surprise, whispering.

After a while, he silently stood up from the ground, turned around and sat down on the chair, quietly waiting for the busy work in the intensive care unit to end.

At some point, the rescue doctor came out, "The child's father?"

"Doctor, how is my son?" Jiang Chengchuan rushed to meet him.

The doctor looked serious, "Pulmonary infection, heart failure, meningitis, this child has suffered, and his condition has stabilized for the time being, and the treatment will continue."

"...can I go in and have a look?"

"It's best not to let him be treated in isolation to avoid other infections." The doctor glanced at him, as if he was a little surprised that he was so young. big heart."

Jiang Chengchuan's heart tightened, and he couldn't say any excuses, procrastination?It means that the reason why Lele is so seriously ill is caused by procrastination?Could it be that Lele won't develop into the intensive care unit if treated early?

The doctor has gone away, and he has no one to ask these words.Huang Zhen?Jiang Youliang?They had been hiding away for a long time, and asked them, or maybe he should ask himself, why he was so incompetent, and the child was thrown to others as soon as he was a full moon, thinking that he would be able to take him to his side after waiting, and finally waited. But it is such a result.

As night fell, the hospital was even quieter than during the day. Except for Jiang Chengchuan who was guarding the door, only the nurses on duty entered and left the intensive care unit.

"Families of the critically ill second bed should pay the fee as soon as possible, so as not to affect the follow-up treatment."

"it is good."

As the nurse's footsteps went away, Jiang Chengchuan took out his mobile phone and dialed a series of numbers. If someone was present, he didn't need to look carefully to find his shaking hands.

The short ten-second call was as long as a glacier thawing. It was not until a deep voice sounded that he regained his reason pretending to be calm.

"Hi, I'm Li Wangbai."

"...I'm Jiang Chengchuan," he thought he would panic, but the words he said were sure.

The person on the other side of the phone was stunned for a while, as if he didn't react for a while, and then said lightly, "It's you, what's the matter?"

"I," Jiang Chengchuan was suddenly stuck, a kind of unspeakable embarrassment and embarrassment spread. After struggling for two seconds, he finally continued resolutely, "Can you lend me some money?"

He thought he would be ridiculed. Unexpectedly, Li Wangbai was not surprised. He didn't even have any extra emotions. He still said in such a cold tone, "Oh, how much? How long?"

"Fifty thousand," Jiang Chengchuan gritted his teeth silently.

"Are you sure it's only this little?"

"I can't afford to borrow too much."

"...That's true," Li Wangbai seemed to sneer, as if he was tired of talking to him, "it's rare that you still remember my number. Send me the card number, and take a photo of my ID card."

After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone neatly.

Obviously there was no dirty word, but Jiang Chengchuan felt that his face was being stepped on the ground and crushed. He took a deep breath, Ah Q comforted himself spiritually, and then quickly sent the number and photo to him.

This person was as cautious as ever, and he even pointed out that he needed to take his ID card, and he was afraid that he would run away if he borrowed 5 yuan.

Anyway.At any rate, pay the medical bills first.

The payment window had already closed. He swiped his card at the self-service machine. After a little relief, he returned to the chair at the door of the intensive care unit and sat down.

Forget about eating and sleeping, just pray that Lele gets better soon.

In the middle of the night, Jiang Chengchuan fell asleep leaning against the back of the chair. He, who had always been very concerned about his image, propped himself up there with his arms and legs, but he didn't feel uncomfortable.

Just like this, Jiang Chengchuan stayed alone for three days and took some time to eat. Just as he walked to the door of the intensive care unit, he found the door of the ward was wide open, surrounded by a group of doctors and nurses.

Seeing him come back, a nurse asked angrily, "Family of the second bed of critically ill patients, why didn't you answer the phone?! The child just..."

Speaking of this, she burst into tears.

Jiang Chengchuan was in a daze, and he took out his mobile phone in a daze, "My mobile phone is out of battery, and I haven't charged it for the past few days..."

He looked up, and the medical staff wearing masks watched him silently, and a sense of sadness filled the air.

"...What's wrong with my son?" He forced a smile and asked, but tears fell down.

Lele eventually passed away due to organ failure.

He just turned one year two months ago, and Lele, who can't speak yet, can't wait to see him. After coming back from Jiang Chengchuan, he has been in a coma, and occasionally opened his eyes and was crying. Across the ward Jiang Chengchuan couldn't comfort him at all.

Maybe even in his ignorant cognition, he has no memory of what father is, how can a strange and strange man comfort him.

Every time Jiang Chengchuan sees his immature face on his mobile phone, he always has to worry about it for several days before he can calm down. That kind of haunting feeling, I believe that no father in the world can empathize with him, even if they love their children again, For him, there is a world of difference.

Jiang Chengchuan doesn't know what it feels like to have a thousand arrows piercing the heart, but it must be more enjoyable than his desperate suffocation like falling into the black hole of the universe at the moment.
