Chapter 238: The farewells in life are so hasty that you often don’t even have time to finish a complete sentence
[You conducted a long import and export trade negotiation, physical strength +1]

[Your abdominal muscles have a great attraction to NPCs, Charm +1]

Thinking back to the discussion he had with Chen Jingxian about import and export trade last night, Lin Jiang discovered that she was not very talented in this area, definitely not as good as Xu Yingjun.

This may also be related to age. There is a more than ten-year age difference between the two, so the degree to which they accept new things is different.

But Chen Jingxian's advantage is her amazing body, which is more voluptuous and fuller, which is of great help and use in making this deal.

As long as we develop it slowly, import and export trade through another channel should be put on the agenda soon.

I took out my cell phone and took a look. It was already past nine in the morning. There were a lot of messages on it, dozens of them, almost all from people around me.

The content was basically the same. They saw negative news about the noodle shop on the Internet and sent me messages asking what was going on.

After a brief reply, Lin Jiang opened Qiu Yunong's chat box, which contained last night's battle report.

Qiu Yunong: "Sponsor, the restaurant chain association has removed all the negative news and videos."

Qiu Yunong: "Chaoliu Tianxia also deleted the relevant videos and published related positive content. I am also afraid."

Lin Jiang responded with an OK gesture. This result was within his expectations.

After all, they just like to play, they are not stupid.

After getting up, Lin Jiang stretched lazily. Today he had to take Chen Jingxian to deal with the threads on the wound, so he had to get up early.

After getting dressed, Chen Jingxian had already prepared breakfast. She turned her back to him, once again showing the perfect silhouette of her back.

Turning around and seeing Lin Jiang getting up, Chen Jingxian looked at him gently.

"Breakfast is ready, go wash up."

"Ah."

After washing up and having breakfast, Lin Jiang drove her to the hospital.

"Have you contacted them in advance?"

"Well, just go to the department and find a nurse. From the doctor's tone, it doesn't seem like a big deal."

"This surgery is nothing, let alone removing the stitches."

"That's true."

Lin Jiang drove Chen Jingxian to the hospital and found a nurse in the inpatient department.

After briefly explaining the situation, she was taken to the infirmary.

Bored, Lin Jiang waited in the corridor.

Just then, hurried footsteps were heard, and two nurses pushed the bed to the door of the ward and pushed it in.

"Hurry up, come and help."

The shouting attracted Lin Jiang's attention. He turned his head and saw the nurse and the caregiver entering the ward.

Not long after, a patient was pushed out, as if something serious had happened.

This kind of thing is very common in hospitals. After all, birth, aging, sickness and death are problems that everyone has to face.

Just when Lin Jiang was about to look away, the person who followed him out attracted his attention.

She was none other than Shen Qingqiu.

And above her head, there is a blue exclamation mark.

Lin Jiang then noticed that the ward was the one where Chen Jingxian stayed after the operation, and it was in the same room as Shen Qingqiu's mother.

Lin Jiang suddenly remembered that Xu Yingjun said yesterday that they originally had classes, but because someone in the family was sick, they changed yesterday's class plan.

Combined with today's situation, it is very likely that his mother's condition has become serious, causing her to cancel yesterday's class.

Shen Qingqiu and two caregivers got on the elevator together, and Lin Jiang clicked on the task at the last moment.

[Task name: Don’t leave]

[Task Description: Urgently need 200,000 yuan for medical expenses]

[Task Reward: Protein Card*1, 20 Experience Points]

When Lin Jiang saw the word "protein", he knew that this reward was not very serious.

[Protein Card: Within 7 days, the one time you withdraw the most amount, one gold can be exchanged for 0.1 yuan in cash]

Another sassy card.

If calculated in this way, you can earn about 10 to 20 million. As for how much, it is not up to you to decide. It all depends on your performance on the spot.

The corridor of the ward returned to silence and Lin Jiang walked towards the nurses' station.

"Hello, I want to know what happened to the patient who was just pushed out?"

The nurse was recording information when she was suddenly interrupted. A look of impatience flashed across her face.

[Ahhh! I still have a lot of work to do, please don't bother me! ]

But after looking up and seeing Lin Jiang, his expression immediately softened.

[Handsome guys can disturb me at will. 】

"Are you talking about Teacher Shen's mother?"

"Ah."

Shen Qingqiu was a teacher at Jiaotong University, and this was the Jiaotong University Affiliated Hospital. The nurse knew her situation, so it was normal for her to call her Teacher Shen.

"Mr. Shen's mother is not in good condition and needs to be sent for surgery. This is the third time she has been hospitalized."

"What disease is it exactly?"

"It has already developed into pancreatic cancer. In fact, it has already..."

"Is there no hope?"

"I can only say that there is little hope. This surgery is just a one-time attempt."

Having said that, Lin Jiang also understood what it meant.

The risk of surgery is higher than imagined, and it is unknown whether you can come out of the operating room alive.

"The surgery should cost a lot of money, right?"

"Indeed, but Mr. Shen is a teacher at Jiaotong University, so he will receive some subsidies. However, the surgery plus ICU treatment will definitely cost a lot of money."

"I understand, thank you."

After chatting briefly with the nurse, Lin Jiang stood aside.

This task is not difficult and there is no rush, so you can do it later.

At this time, Chen Jingxian came out and her condition was not affected at all. The nurse patiently explained the precautions to her.

Lin Jiang listened to the general idea, which meant that it had recovered very well and that he only needed to put on a waterproof patch and he wouldn't even be delayed from taking a shower.

Lin Jiang walked over and the two of them arrived at the elevator entrance.

At the elevator entrance, there is a floor map, and the operating room is on the fifth floor.

"Where are you going now? Home?"

"I don't really want to go home. My hair is growing on me." Chen Jingxian said:
"I want to go back to the company. I haven't been there for a long time."

"It's nothing important, so don't go back. Go out for some shopping or something to have some fun."

Chen Jingxian tilted her head and looked at Lin Jiang.

"Wouldn't it be better if I bought some short skirts and stockings?"

"You are indeed a good employee of mine. You have touched my heart. I will give you a raise."

"Go away, go away. You took advantage of me yesterday."

“But you seem to be working very hard.”

"Don't say that! If you say that again, I won't care about you anymore!"

"From what you said, I can come and talk to you about import and export trade in the future?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant."

Chen Jingxian tilted her head and looked out the window, afraid that Lin Jiang would see her blushing face.

[It seems quite fun, but it's a bit scary when you look up, bad guy! ]

Lin Jiang smiled, this could be considered as feedback from the buyer.

Lin Jiang drove Chen Jingxian to Berkeley.

"Are you busy this afternoon?"

Chen Jingxian wanted to ask Lin Jiang to go shopping together and let him choose some clothes, but she didn't have the courage to say it directly.

"I have something else to do, so I have to leave first. You can go shopping, and it will be on my account."

"Boss Lin gave me such a high salary, I can still afford this level of consumption."

Lin Jiang nodded, "Then I'll leave first."

After getting off the car, Chen Jingxian waved at Lin Jiang.

"Drive slower, and don't forget to eat no matter how busy you are."

"understood."

After responding, Lin Jiang drove away and returned to the hospital again.

Ring ring ring——

Just as he parked the car, Lin Jiang's cell phone rang.

What he didn't expect was that the person who called was Shen Qingqiu.

"Boss Lin, the head nurse called me just now and said someone went to the hospital to see me. I wanted to ask if you were the one who went?"

Shen Qingqiu's voice was very calm, like a quiet forest at night, without any sadness in it.

"I went to the hospital with a friend to have my stitches removed, and I remembered my aunt was also hospitalized here, so I just asked around."

"I've been a bit busy these days, so I've postponed their classes. But don't worry, I'll go and give them extra lessons after I've dealt with my family affairs. It won't affect their progress in the postgraduate entrance exams." Shen Qingqiu said:
"As for politics, I have also contacted teachers for them. Don't worry about this matter. Their classes will not be delayed because of my personal affairs."

Lin Jiang wanted to say something, but he held the words back when they came to his lips.

"Okay, family matters are more important, their matters can be put aside for now."

"Thank you, Mr. Lin. Is there anything else?"

"Nothing."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Jiang sat in the car and didn't get out for a long time.

He found that he had underestimated Shen Qingqiu.

She must have known how dangerous this operation was, and there was a high chance that she wouldn't be able to make it.

But even in this extremely sad situation, she was still able to communicate with herself calmly and take the initiative to discuss the make-up lessons.

Such a strong spiritual core is rare even for men, let alone a woman.

After taking a deep breath, Lin Jiang went to the payment office of the inpatient department.

There aren't many people here. There's one in front, and after waiting for a while it's his turn.

"Hello, there is a patient in Ward 803 of the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department of the Third Inpatient Department. His family member is Shen Qingqiu. I want to check how much medical expenses are owed now."

"Wait a moment, let me check." Although there were no relevant documents and certificates, Lin Jiang provided a lot of additional information, which was enough to clarify the information in this regard.

In other words, you come here to pay money, and even if you don't provide much information, they will find a way to make you pay.

"I owe more than 30,000 yuan, but I signed up for a surgery this morning, so even 100,000 yuan might not be enough."

Lin Jiang took out his card and said, "I'll pay 200,000 first."

"it is good."

The staff took out the POS machine, operated it briefly a few times, and Lin Jiang entered the password.

Soon, the operation was completed.

[Task completed: Reward: Protein card*1, 20 experience points]

When he got the receipt from the POS machine, Lin Jiang retracted his steps and handed over the bank card.

"Pay another 10."

The staff member looked at Lin Jiang meaningfully, and it was obvious at first glance that he was a wealthy man.

After paying the money, Lin Jiang went to the fifth floor.

As soon as I got out of the elevator, I saw Shen Qingqiu sitting on a bench.

With his head down, he sat there quietly, not moving.

Her long hair hung down, blocking her face, and she was as silent as a sculpture.

Lin Jiang walked over quietly.

As if sensing someone coming, Shen Qingqiu quietly moved to the side and made room for her. Lin Jiang also sat next to her.

"Mr. Lin."

Seeing Lin Jiang appear here, Shen Qingqiu showed a hint of surprise on his face, but between his brows, there was a deep sense of fatigue and haggardness.

"Did they say how long the surgery would take?"

Out of habit, Shen Qingqiu pulled his hair upwards.

"Maybe five to seven hours."

"Are you the only one here?"

"My aunt has gone back. She also has a family. I can't let her stay here with me for a long time."

Lin Jiang nodded.

There will be no filial son by the bedside of a patient who has been ill for a long time, let alone relatives.

It would be great if you could come and help for a while.

"Are Wang Cuilan's family members here?"

The door of the operating room was pushed open and a nurse came out.

Shen Qingqiu stood up immediately, "I am."

"The patient's condition is not good. You need to sign the critical illness notice."

"it is good."

Shen Qingqiu took the pen, without looking at it for long or asking any more questions, and signed his name on it neatly.

Holding the critical illness notice, the nurse turned and walked towards the operating room.

Shen Qingqiu sat back in the chair, leaning his head on one side, sitting there without saying a word.

Time is long, another hour has passed...

When the door of the operating room was opened again, it was not the nurse who came out, but the doctor.

"Xiao Shen."

The middle-aged doctor took off his mask and looked at Shen Qingqiu.

"Teacher Ma..."

Looking at the doctor's expression, Shen Qingqiu didn't dare to ask, his face turned pale.

"The operation is meaningless. Time is running out. Let's send the patient to the ward first and then say a few words..."

Shen Qingqiu trembled, and Lin Jiang was quick to support her together with the doctor.

"Teacher Shen!"

"I'm fine..."

Shen Qingqiu forced himself to calm down.

At this time, Wang Cuilan was pushed out of the operating room.

Shen Qingqiu hurried over and, together with the nurse, prepared to push Wang Cuilan back to the ward.

"Xiaoqiu..."

In the elevator, the effects of anesthesia had not yet worn off and Wang Cuilan's condition was even worse.

"mom……"

"Don't cry, Mom, it's okay..."

Shen Qingqiu grabbed Wang Cuilan's hand...

"Mother……"

Wang Cuilan was barely breathing, "Mom can't see you get married..."

"It's okay, I can see. Teacher Ma said it can be cured..." Shen Qingqiu said while holding back tears.

Wang Cuilan turned her head gently and looked at Lin Jiang.

"Aunt……"

Lin Jiang responded. He couldn't empathize with the other person, but he felt deeply sympathetic.

"Are you our Xiaoqiu's boyfriend..."

Lin Jiang looked at Shen Qingqiu and found that she was also looking at him.

"Yes."

Lin Jiang nodded and put his hands on the bed, trying to use this method to bring them closer.
Wang Cuilan smiled.

Just this one word seemed to have fulfilled her greatest wish.

Soon, the elevator door opened.

"Find an empty ward." said the male doctor.

As teachers in the school, the department gave corresponding care.

"Go to 807!"

Wang Cuilan was pushed back to the ward and the nurse connected various instruments.

Although it's useless, it's meaningful to hold on for one more minute.

After connecting the machine, the doctor and the nurse left.

Lin Jiang also followed the nurse's footsteps and left the ward, spending the last time with the mother and daughter.

"child……"

Wang Cuilan called Lin Jiang.

"Aunt……"

Wang Cuilan gently raised her hand and grabbed Lin Jiang's hand.

"Our Xiaoqiu..."

Wang Cuilan's voice became smaller and smaller, and Lin Jiang had to squat down to hear what she said.

"Xiao Qiu has a bad fate..."

"Promise your aunt that you will be nicer to her in the future..."

"Well, definitely."

"If she does something wrong, you should be more tolerant..."

"If you don't love her anymore, divorce her..."

"Don't hit her..."

Lin Jiang's eyes were sore and he held Wang Cuilan's hand tightly.

"No, don't worry, Auntie, I definitely won't..."

"I can't see you get married, but I feel relieved to leave it to you..."

"Well, I will treat her well..."

"Xiao Qiu..."

Wang Cuilan turned her head with difficulty and looked at Shen Qingqiu.

"When you get married, you have to be nice to her..."

"Take good care of your parents-in-law..."

"Give birth to someone else's child..."

"Educate your children well..."

"I know mom..."

"Cough cough cough..."

Wang Cuilan coughed a few times and the instrument began to fluctuate.

"Auntie's family is poor and can't afford a dowry. Please don't look down on my daughter..."

"No, no..."

"You guys take care of yourself and have more children..."

Drop drop-

The instrument started beeping, indicating that the patient had no vital signs.

The separation in life is so hasty that you often don’t even have time to finish a complete sentence...

"mom--"

There was no heart-wrenching crying, Shen Qingqiu just sobbed silently...

Her pale hands tightly grasped the white sheets. She was unwilling to give up, as if she wanted to snatch her mother's life back from the hands of death...

But after reading so many books and walking so many roads, she was still powerless in the face of life and death...

Bury your head in your mother's chest.

This was the last time she lay in her mother's arms as a child.

She couldn't bear it...
