Chapter 1224: He Paid for Her Medical Expenses

The sudden change in Gong Yis tone made Bai Beibei stiffen and stand up straight.

She was a delicate girl and as she stood by the car door, her two small hands folded back into her sleeves and she looked at him timidly.

Im sorry, she said as she closed the car door and proceeded to leave.

Gong Yi stared at her back. She had seemed like a little kitten that had been kicked to the curb by its owner and her retreating figure made him feel really hurt. He cursed and grew increasingly frustrated.

Why did he constantly feel like he was the one bullying her?

Gong Yi pondered over this for a moment. He opened the car door swiftly and walked into the hospital lobby. Upon getting the information he needed at the nurses desk, he headed straight for the third floor. He spotted a petite figure in the corridor and it belonged to a girl who was talking to a doctor.

Doctor, hows my grandmother doing? she asked.

Unfortunately, the situation is not ideal. While the heart surgery she had a month ago was successful, she has demonstrated signs of extreme organ rejection after the surgery, the doctor replied.

What? Wouldnt that mean that my grandmother she trailed off.

Well, the only thing we can do right now is to try to extend the time that you have with your mother-in-law. That being said, you must be mentally prepared that she may pass on at any moment, the doctor warned.

Bai Beibei closed her eyes momentarily. The tip of her nose turned red and big fat tears rolled down her face.

A weak and frail voice came from the ward, Beibei, is that you?

Bai Beibei wiped her tears hurriedly with her small hands, Thank you so much, Doctor.

She turned around and entered the ward, Yes, Grandma, its me.

The doctor turned and walked away with the nurse. The nurse, said sympathetically, Beibei is really pitiful. Beibei and her grandmother only have each other to rely on. Her grandmothers collapse last month due to a heart attack was so unexpected.

The most pitiful thing is that they dont have any money to pay for any further treatment, the doctor said as he let out an audible sigh, The patient is really old and heart surgery itself requires a large sum of money. She may still suffer from organ rejection again even if the surgery succeeds. Ill let Beibei weigh the pros and cons of the surgery she might just appear tomorrow with a large sum of money, ready to pay for the surgery.

The daily medical fees are so expensive now. Beibei has not paid for half a month.

Gong Yi listened to the conversation between the doctor and the nurse. He walked slowly to the door of the ward in large strides. Bai Beibeis grandmother laid on the hospital bed in the ward. Her face was pale and she did not seem to be in good spirits. However, she held Bai Beibeis hand tenderly with a loving and peaceful expression on her face.

It was at this moment that Gong Yi realized she did not have the ability to see anymore.

Beibei, Im feeling much better. In fact, I dont have any major pains. Its so boring to stay in the hospital everyday. Lets leave the hospital tomorrow, she said.

Bai Beibei sat by the bed and held her grandmothers hand tightly. Her hand was very rough and there was a layer of calluses running across that scraped her skin. These were a direct testament to how hard her grandmother had worked to raise her. Her grandmother was her only real
