——(Voice) Sister, Dad’s surgery failed. What should I do…

——(Voice) I'm sorry, sister, I shouldn't bother you, but I don't know who to turn to...

—(Voiceover) The doctor said Dad can only hold on for seven days at most. He's the only relative I have left...

……

—Sister, I'm sorry, I lost my composure! Please don't ignore me, okay?

As soon as Su Zijin woke up, she saw a series of almost collapsed voice messages sent by Xiaoxia half an hour ago, as well as the last text of apology.

Su Zijin's heart tightened, and he made a voice call directly.

It took four rings before the call was connected.

"Sister?" Xiao Xia's voice was hoarse and had a strong nasal tone.

"Yeah, it's me, are you okay?"

"Me? I'm fine! I'm sorry, sister, for making you worry..."

"It's okay. I'm glad you thought of me when you were in trouble."

"Sister..." Xiao Xia sobbed, "Actually, I've already prepared for the worst, but..."

But I finally raised the money for the surgery, and the doctor also said that the chances of success were quite high, so why did it fail?

Why give him hope, and then make him suffer the pain of loss all over again?

"Why?" Xiao Xia murmured, feeling a sharp pain in her heart and a dizzy head.

"Xiao Xia? Xiao Xia, listen to me, calm down first."

"Wow...why?"

Su Zijin keenly noticed that something was wrong with Xiaoxia's condition, and quickly said loudly: "Xiaoxia, don't you listen to your sister's words?"

"Well, I'm obedient, Xiao Xia is obedient, sister, please don't ignore me..."

"Now tell me, dear, where are you?"

"I...I'm outside the hospice ward of Peking Central Hospital."

"Okay, then go find the nurse and tell her you're not feeling well."

"Well, I'll go now... Sister, please don't ignore me."

While comforting him, Su Zijin shouted downstairs, "Sister Wen, get ready to go to the airport. I'm going to Peking now. Come with me."

Wenjun responded from downstairs, "Yes, boss."

Su Zijin slung over her small bag, which contained her ID card.

Hearing the urgency in Su Zijin's tone, Wenjun moved quickly. As soon as Su Zijin came downstairs, she went to the basement and drove the car out.

The two rushed all the way to the airport.

On the way, Su Zijin made sure that Xiaoxia had found the nurse before hanging up the phone.

Then I bought the tickets for both of them through the WeChat mini program.

There were no economy class tickets available, so I bought the next business class ticket.

When they arrived, they heard the flight being checked in and boarding.

They hurriedly picked up the tickets. Both of them only took a small bag and a mobile phone, no luggage, and quickly passed security and got on the plane.

When he got on the plane, Su Zijin didn't even have time to feel the surprise of riding on a plane for the first time. He closed his eyes and opened the Merit Mall with his mind.

Su Zijin stared at the disease-curing pill above.

And the introduction below it.

——Taking it can eliminate all diseases.

"System, can the disease-curing pill cure the illness of a dying person?"

[Yes, depending on the severity of the condition, mild cases will recover immediately, while severe cases will not exceed three days.]

Su Zijin breathed a sigh of relief, that's good.

[However, host, if that person's life span is nearing its end, even if he is cured with the disease-curing pill, he will still die from another accident.]

Su Zijin frowned, "But how can we know how long a person's life span is?"

[It's simple. It's recorded in the King of Hell's Book of Life and Death.]

Su Zijin: "......"

'Is there any other way?'

【Have. 】

"What method?"

[The host will deduct 10 merit points. The system can help you check.]

10 o'clock……

Saying too much is not too much, saying too little is not too much.

Su Zijin looked at his total of 603 merit points and pursed his lips.

The air conditioning on the plane was turned on low. Wenjun noticed that Su Zijin touched her arm inadvertently, and whispered to the flight attendant to bring a clean blanket for her to cover herself with.

Feeling the warm touch, Su Zijin opened his eyes and said thank you.

Wenjun saw that her expression had softened considerably, so she asked cautiously, "Did something happen?"

"A friend's father's surgery failed and he's not doing well..."

"Oh."

Wenjun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the family didn't go bankrupt.

She just found a new job, and her boss is so generous and easy to get along with. But she must not go bankrupt. May all the gods and Buddhas bless her...

Peking Central Hospital.

The nurses' station next to the intensive care unit.

The tall boy sat hunched over on a chair against the wall. He took two emergency pills given by the nurse and drank some water. Then he sat there dejectedly with his head hung, staring blankly at his phone.

I don't know how long it took, but the sky gradually darkened.

The young nurse who came to relieve the boy poured a glass of warm water and took out the biscuits she had prepared as a midnight snack from the drawer. She squatted in front of the boy and said with a distressed look on her face, "Xiao Xia, please eat something. Sister Liu said you didn't eat lunch either..."

"No, thank you." The boy's voice was hoarse, and his dead eyes made the nurse feel even more distressed.

She took two steps forward and handed the food to the boy again, "Just eat some..."

Just then, a clear female voice came from the end of the corridor.

"Xiao Xia?"

Meng Zhixia was shocked. The voice was so familiar, as if he had just heard it.

But how could my sister come to see him?

Weren’t the words he heard in a daze his hallucination?

Daddy is leaving, and my sister must be tired of him...

Meng Zhixia secretly curled her fingertips.

Su Zijin walked over quickly, and the young nurse saw this and unconsciously gave up her seat.

During the live broadcast, he looked well-proportioned, tall and thin, and very handsome under the camera.

But when I looked at him in reality, I found that the boy in front of me was very thin.

He lowered his head, and only the hairy back of his head could be seen, and the bones of his shoulders and back were clearly visible through the thin white T-shirt.

"Xiao Xia, are you ignoring me even though I'm here?"

Su Zijin half-knelt down, moved her fingers at the side, and slowly stroked the loose hair on his forehead.

Meng Zhixia slowly raised her head, looking at the beautiful girl in front of her, who looked like a fairy. She blinked slowly, muttering in disbelief.

"Sister, sister..."

"Yeah, here I come."

"elder sister……"

"Well, it's me."

"elder sister……"

"I am here."

"elder sister!"

Meng Zhixia suddenly stepped forward, knelt on the ground with a thud, and hugged the person in front of him into his arms.

He hugged her very tightly, as if he wanted to melt her into his body.

Su Zijin's body stiffened for a moment, and she felt the warmth and wetness on her neck. She slowly raised her hands and hugged the boy back.

She patted his back gently, just like the dean's mother used to comfort her.

"Be good, sister is here, Xiaoxia, don't cry anymore, you won't be handsome if you cry anymore..."

Wenjun, who rushed over with fruits and some snacks bought outside the hospital, saw this scene and stood by silently.
