The "in surgery" light stayed on for a full four hours before going out.

The doctor who performed the operation on Gao Zhisheng came out and said: "Don't worry, the operation was very successful and the patient is no longer in danger of death."

Hearing this, Wang Guifen breathed a sigh of relief and clasped her hands together: "Thank God, I'm glad you're okay!"

Gao Furong supported her mother and asked, "Doctor, I heard that strokes can easily leave sequelae. Will my dad have any?"

Although she had broken up with Yang Lu, when their relationship was good before, she had heard a lot from Yang Lu, a nurse, about the terrible sequelae.

The doctor's face darkened. "It's hard to say. After a stroke, some people may suffer from facial paralysis at the mildest, or hemiplegia of their limbs at the worst. Of course, some people are lucky and don't have any sequelae."

Wang Guifen's heart, which had just calmed down, started to lift again.

At this time, Gao Zhisheng was pushed out after the operation. The family didn't care about anything else and followed him to the general ward.

Not long after, another nurse came in and asked, "Are you Gao Zhisheng's family members?"

Gao Furong nodded quickly: "Yes."

"That's good. This is the detailed bill for Gao Zhisheng's surgery. It was an emergency, and imported medication was used. I need you to pay as soon as possible. The payment counter is in the lobby on the first floor. Thank you."

The nurse handed over several bills.

Gao Furong almost dropped her jaw when she took the bill and looked at it:

"The surgery costs 860,000!"

How can it be so expensive?

Wang Guifen, who was sitting by the bed wiping her tears, and Gao Xiaojun, who was standing by the window in a daze, immediately raised their heads and looked at the nurse in shock.

"Didn't I just tell you? The surgery used imported drugs, which aren't covered by medical insurance in China, so it's going to be expensive. If you have any questions, go to the nurses' station. I'm still making my rounds."

After leaving these words, the nurse turned and left, leaving Gao Furong no chance to ask further questions.

The family was at a loss when faced with the expensive bill.

Wang Guifen tugged at Gao Xiaojun's sleeve and said, "Didn't you sell all your sneakers before? Where's the money? Take it out and pay for the medical expenses!"

Gao Xiaojun's face turned pale. He had already used the money from selling his sneakers to make up the eight million, but it was cheated away by the warehouse owner and Boss Wu.

How could he say such an embarrassing thing?

"I have no money!"

Gao Xiaojun swung his hand and pushed Wang Guifen away.

Eight hundred and sixty thousand is a bit expensive, but he had made some friends when he was working in the company before. He should be able to raise the money by borrowing money from these friends.

Thinking of this, he left the ward.

"Xiaojun, Xiaojun, where are you going!"

Wang Guifen shouted from behind and wanted to catch up, but when she thought of Gao Zhisheng still lying on the hospital bed, she stopped again.

But Gao Furong chased after him and blocked his way: "Gao Xiaojun, do you have any conscience? The person lying in the hospital bed is our father. Not only can you not come up with the money, but you also want to abandon our parents. Do you think you are worthy of me and our family?"

Her voice was urgent and sharp, causing Gao Xiaojun, who hadn't had a good night's sleep for several days, to feel his temples throbbing.

"It's you, Gao Furong, who has no conscience!" Gao Xiaojun suddenly yelled!

"Do you know how busy Dad and I have been these days? You can't help at all and you're going crazy here. You're the one who's sorry for the family. If you had honestly gone to Xu Yang to admit your mistake, our family wouldn't be in this situation today!"

His hysterical roar echoed in the hospital corridor, frightening everyone who passed by and looking at him the same way.

The nurse who had just brought the bill came out from the next ward and scolded, "Shut up, everyone! This is a hospital, no loud noises allowed!"

"That's right, he has no quality." An old man cursed not far away.

Gao Xiaojun's face turned red with anger. He gritted his teeth, bumped into Gao Furong's shoulder, and walked away angrily.

Gao Furong returned to the ward embarrassedly, her face full of complaints: "Mom, now that Xiaojun is gone, how are we going to come up with the 860,000 yuan?"

Wang Guifen took out her cell phone and said, "Let's go find your grandfather. He's Zhisheng's biological father. I don't believe he wouldn't care about Zhisheng's life or death!"

At that time, they didn't know that Gao Zhisheng had mortgaged his eldest brother's house and land in his hometown, but they still called and the call was connected.

"Dad, I'm Guifen. Zhisheng is in the hospital due to an accident. The surgery costs 860,000 yuan. Can Dad..."

"Not a cent!"

The voice on the other end of the line was Gao Zhida's roar. Wang Guifen shuddered when she heard it, but the roar continued:

"You are a family of heartless bastards. Don't even think about cheating me out of my money. I don't care what happens to him. I wouldn't even care if he died. You even want to call my dad. Do you think he's easy to cheat at his age? I'm telling you, there's no way you can get your money back!"

Wang Guifen was stunned: "Brother, I really am Guifen, I am not a liar!"

"I don't care who you are. Go back and tell Gao Zhisheng that if he doesn't return the money he mortgaged the house and land to me, my father and I will go back to the village and remove your family's names from the family tree!"

"What do you mean by mortgaging the house and land? Are you confused, brother?"

Wang Guifen wanted to say something else, but the phone was already busy.

Gao Furong's heart sank when she saw this, and she complained in her heart that when she was in her hometown, her grandfather was partial to her eldest brother's family. Even when dividing the land, most of it was given to her eldest brother, and her father, as her younger brother, could only get a small part.

It’s bad enough that they’re biased in dividing the family, but why don’t they even care about Gao Zhisheng’s life or death now?

She gritted her teeth and thought, Zhao Kang is still the most reliable one, no one else is better than Zhao Kang.

So she called Zhao Kang.

But she didn't think about the fact that when she became rich, she was already in love with Xu Yang, Zhisheng Building Materials Market was on the rise, her family lived in a big villa, and drove an SUV.

The youngest son had settled down in the city, so Gao Dagui divided the family property and gave more land to his elder brother Gao Zhida, also taking into consideration that the eldest brother would still have a rural household registration in the future, while the second brother would soon be able to obtain a city household registration.

But no one expected that Gao Zhisheng would end up with nothing. Not only did he suffer, but he also dragged his brother and father into the water...

"Aren't you at work now? Why did you suddenly come to me?"

In the coffee shop opposite Jiaxing Film and Television Building, Zhao Kang hurried in wearing a mask and sat down opposite Wang Lei.

Wang Lei pushed a cup of coffee to him, with a check under the coffee.

"Li Nara and the financial manager are both on a business trip. Now is the best opportunity to transfer the funds. I've filled out the check for you. Hurry and find a way to exchange it at the bank!"

Zhao Kang pursed his lips beneath the mask, his heart sinking. This day had finally come.

He took the coffee and pulled out the check from underneath.

Looking down, I saw that the check was stamped with the Finance Department's seal, and the amount column was filled in with 20 million yuan and the corresponding number.

Wang Lei added, "Don't worry. I spent a lot of effort to stamp the Finance Department's seal. No problem. Just stamp Xu Haixing's seal on it, and we can withdraw the money!"
