âI donât think even Xi Lin wants to admit youâre his mother. Donât talk to me about pride, the thing you need the most now is money, so take my money and shut the f*ck up. This is the last time Mubai and I will ever come to see you, you donât deserve anything more than that. And by the way, Iâm going to marry Mubai soon, donât you worry, I will take especially good care of that son of yours.â
After saying her piece, Tianxin turned to leave.
âStop.â Xinghe called after her.
Tianxin had been waiting for Xinghe to get angry. She spun around and said gloatingly, âWhy? Am I wrong?â
Xinghe dropped her credit card by her feet and said, âTake your trash and leave!â
âXia Xinghe, Iâm trying to help you here. Youâre as poor as a beggar now, so why are you still so stubborn? Why wonât you accept our kindness? I know you couldnât swallow your stubborn pride but think of your poor uncle. How are you going to provide him with the treatment he needs without money? Or do you want to see him die?â Tianxin purposely aimed at what she assumed to be Xingheâs sore spots.
Xinghe would have to bend down and take the card from her feet because she knew Xinghe wouldnât leave her uncle for death. She could barely contain her glee just from envisioning that.
To her surprise, Xinghe didnât even move a muscle. She said, âChu Tianxin, who are you to lecture me. Iâll repeat myself because it would appear that youâre too dumb to understand human speech, take your trash and leave, youâre stinking up the hospital.â
âYouâŚâ Tianxin was angry beyond words, âXia Xinghe, donât bite the hand that wants to feed you! You think I really want to help you? Iâm doing this because youâre Mubaiâs ex-wife and Xi Linâs mother, so donât think too highly of yourself.â
âWhy are you creating such a scene? This is the hospital!â Suddenly, Chengwuâs main doctor sauntered over and rebuked the two of them.
Tianxin turned up a smile when she saw the doctor, âLong time no see, Doctor Wong.â
Doctor Wong did a double take before he also smiled in return, âSo itâs Miss Chu. But why are you here, did something happen to your family members?â
Tianxin didnât forget to throw Xinghe a gloating glance before resuming her conversation with Doctor Wong, âOh no but thanks for asking. Iâm here because of Xinghe, sheâs an old friend. How is her uncle doing?â
Doctor Wong thought the two of them were actual friends so he replied truthfully, âItâs not looking well for the patient, heâs in need of a kidney transplant or his condition is going to worsen.â
âOh my, I didnât know it was so serious that he requires a transplant. The operation must be expensive, right?â Tianxin said as she faked a worried frown.
Doctor Wong nodded and explained, âIt is indeed not cheap. The operation costs 300000 RMB.â
Tianxin almost broke out in gleeful laughs.
She held back a smirk and said, âDoctor Wong, as Iâve said, Miss Xia is an old friend of mine, Iâll pay for her uncleâs operation fees. No matter how much, Iâll be willing to pay so donât give them a hard time. Itâs the least I can do â as their friend.â
Doctor Wong replied in a surprised tone, âBut the patientâs fee has already been paid.â
The shock was reflected in Tianxin when she said, âWhat did you say?â
â300000 RMB operation fee, theyâve paid the full amount. Didnât they inform you, Miss Chu?â
Tianxin gave an awkward laugh.

She shot Xinghe an unbelievable look, adding, âHow is that possible? They have no money, where would they get 300000?â
Tianxin knew 300000 would be an astronomical for the beggar family Xia.
Xingheâs outfit was assembled at the night market and they lived in a slum, so there was no way they would have the 300000 RMB to pay Chengwuâs medical bills.
Doctor Wong repeated, âBut they have really paid the full amount, I have no reason to lie to you.â
Tianxin eyed Xinghe suspiciously. Her immediate thought was that Xinghe had done something shameless to gather the necessary funds.
