After helping Xiao Kun up, I said to him: "Drink some water first, don't be so excited."
He picked up the water glass with trembling hands. From his eyes and actions, I could clearly feel that he had really changed now.
Because if he wants to pretend to be like this in front of me, then his eyes will never be able to show it off.
There are also many calluses on his hands, and there is also a lot of dirt between the nails.
This is definitely the hand of someone who has been working for a long time, so it is definitely not an act.
After he drank the water, I asked him again: "Do you have a child?"
"Yes, I met a girl before I was imprisoned, but we were not married, we just had a relationship. I didn't know she was pregnant at the time... Later, after I was imprisoned, she came to see me, and she had a big belly at that time.
, I didn’t know she had my child.”
After a pause, he continued: "After I was released from prison, the child was already over two years old, and she also ran away with a boss from Guangzhou, and the child was left to my mother."
"Is this your child?" I asked with confusion on my face. Don't blame me for thinking too much, because who can tell clearly about things in society.
Xiao Kun nodded and replied: "Yes, I went to the hospital to do a paternity test."
"Oh, how come you have leukemia?"
Xiao Kun sighed, lowered his head and murmured: "The doctor said that this condition is caused by genetic factors. One of the child's parents carries the virus."
"So you're raising this kid on your own now?"
"Yes, no matter what, she will always be my child. I can't ignore it, right?"
Although he still has some conscience, his change really surprised me.
I took a deep breath and asked him again: "Then what are you doing now?"
"I work on a construction site and have no skills. I can only do odd jobs for others and deliver food at night."
"Why are you so thin? When I saw you just now, I thought you were taking drugs."
Xiao Kun shook his head hurriedly and said, "No, I don't touch those things. I lost weight because I also got sick last year."
"What's the matter?"
"It's okay. My illness is a minor illness, mainly caused by chronic malnutrition."
I was silent for a while and then said: "Xiao Kun, do you know about Xiao Wei?"
Xiao Kun nodded and said in a deep voice: "I know, although she is my sister, she is really nothing. She has obviously hurt you so miserably and wants to poison you, I know that."
I sighed heavily, and then asked him: "How much does your child's surgery cost?"
Xiao Kun was silent for a while and then said in a deep voice: "It costs more than 700,000."
More than 700,000 yuan is not much to me, but why should I help him for no reason?
You know, I was once targeted by him so much that I had no temper at all, and he even wanted to kill me.
Is it reasonable for me to help him now?
But seeing how much he has changed now, it feels like he has completely changed as a person.
In my silence, he hurriedly said to me: "Don't worry, I will definitely pay you back the money, and I can write you an IOU."
I raised my hand to him and said, "Is your child in the hospital now?"
"exist."
"Then take me to see it."
"Okay, now?"
I looked at the time and said, "Let's do it now."
After briefly tidying up, I took the car keys and set off with him.
Sitting in my car, Xiao Kun sighed and said, "Chen Feng, I didn't expect you to be doing so well now. In fact, I hesitated for a long time before I came to you. I was afraid you wouldn't see me."
"I'm really surprised that you came to see me. After you went to jail, we had no contact. After so many years, I thought we would never cross paths again."
"I don't want to disturb your life, but I have no choice but to come and beg you."
"how did you find me?"
"I saw you on TV."
I didn't speak any more until I got to the hospital.
I followed Xiao Kun all the way to the ward, and asked him: "What's your child's name?"
"My name is Xiao Siyan."
I was stunned for a moment and almost thought I was Xiao Siya.
"How old are you?" I asked again.
"Five years old."
A five-year-old child is diagnosed with leukemia. This is indeed a torture for the child!
After arriving at the hospital, I followed Xiao Kun to the ward and met his daughter.
His daughter was about the same age as Xiao Man, but she looked much younger than Xiao Man. Her head was shaved due to chemotherapy, her entire face had no color at all, and she was in particularly poor spirits.
"Dad, where have you been?" She asked in a weak tone after seeing Xiao Kun.
"Dad went out for something," Xiao Kun replied, pointing at me and introducing, "Yan Yan, this is Uncle Chen."
"Hello, Uncle Chen." Xiao Siyan called to me immediately.
Seeing her sick look, I felt a little uncomfortable.
Putting aside my preconceptions about Xiao Kun, she is only five years old, just as old as Xiao Man. Why don’t I feel uncomfortable?
I responded, walked to the hospital bed, and asked softly: "Yanyan is good, Yanyan must be strong! If you cooperate well with the treatment, you will definitely get better."
"Well, Yanyan is not afraid of pain."
This little girl is quite sensible, and her facial features look very similar to Xiao Kun's. For a moment, I even felt that she had some shadow of Xiao Wei.
At this time, the nurse came in pushing the medical cart.
As soon as Xiao Siyan saw the treatment cart pushed by the nurse, a frightened expression appeared on her face. It was obvious that this was coming to treat her.
After the nurse came in, she took her temperature first, and then asked Xiao Kun: "Show me the list of today's blood test."
Xiao Kun hurriedly found it and handed it to the nurse. The nurse looked at it carefully and then said to Xiao Kun: "The situation is getting worse. We need to prepare for the operation as soon as possible. Have you raised the money?"
"As soon as possible."
"Not as soon as possible. If you want your daughter to live, you have to."
Although the nurse's words were cold, she said them to alert Xiao Kun that the situation was already very dangerous.
Xiao Kun nodded, and the nurse closed the curtain, presumably starting treatment.
I couldn't see the scene behind the curtain, but soon I heard Xiao Siyan's scream from inside. The scream didn't sound like that of a five-year-old girl at all.
I don't know how much pain she is suffering at this moment. This kind of pain is definitely something that even an adult cannot admit.
Xiao Kun also shed tears when he heard the cry. He didn't dare to listen any more and turned around and walked out of the ward.
I followed him outside the ward and saw him squatting on the ground, wiping tears with his hands.
I took out the tissues in my bag and handed him one, then said to him: "I paid for your daughter's surgery."
