"Xi Xi, tell me the truth. Where did you find so much money?" Ling Xun finally found a gap and asked worriedly.

What was about to happen, could never be avoided. The operation was going to start tomorrow, and Chen Xi didn't want anything to happen at this time. After thinking for a while, Chen Xi lowered her head and answered in a low voice.

"I, I borrowed the usury." With such a large amount of money, besides selling himself, the only thing that could be done was to take advantage of the loan.

Ling Xun widened his eyes as he looked at Chen Xi in disbelief. A few months ago, Chen Xi was just a young girl who didn't know anything. In a few short months, she actually found out where the usury went.

"You're crazy. I already told you, if you can't cure this disease, then don't bother." Do you know the meaning of usury? Can you bear it? " Ling Xun was very angry.

Chen Xi, however, had her eyes red. She shook Ling Xun off and looked at him.

"I don't care about that. The hospital said they have found a suitable kidney. If you don't get an operation, you will die. I had to pay first, so I could get an operation. "Ling Xun, I can't let you die." After so many years, it was the first time Chen Xi disobeyed Ling Xun.

For him, Chen Xi didn't even hesitate to be someone else's lover to get the money. It was only because this person was Ling Xun.

"Besides, you're not the only one who wants money. Yue also wants money. It was because of Yue's temper that Yue had snuck out of the hospital last time, even though the nurse didn't want to bother with him. Do you know how long I've been searching and how hopeless I am? Ling Xun, I only have you two family members, only you two. If I were the one lying here today, would you give me up? "Ling Xun, you don't even know how much suffering I've been going through these past few days." As Chen Xi spoke, her tears fell.

"Ling Xun, you're still so young. As long as you get better, we can spend the money together, right? How can I just watch you die? How could I? " Chen Xi's voice became softer and softer. In the end, she simply squatted down and hid her tears in her knees.

Ling Xun's heart ached for Chen Xi as he watched her like this, but he couldn't say anything. Chen Xi was right. If it was Chen Xi, he would have chosen this path as well.

Ling Xun also squatted down and held Chen Xi in his arms, not saying another word.

The day for the operation was coming. Chen Xi wanted to give Ling Xun a kidney, so she also wanted to go into the operation room with him. However, Chen Yue could not be taken care of without someone else. Chen Xi thought for a moment, but could not find a trusted friend.

Just as Chen Xi was getting into trouble, a phone call made her feel relieved.

"Chen Xi, you still owe me a meal. But I haven't seen you at school for so many days, so I can only come knocking. " The young and energetic voice of Han Jingtian on the other end of the phone made Chen Xi extremely envious in her heart.

"Han Jingtian, can I ask you to do me a favor?" Chen Xi asked as gently as she could.

Han Jingtian was stunned. He only spent a few seconds to think before he smiled and said: "It's my honor to be able to serve a beauty."

Chen Xi could feel Han Jingtian's gentle smile without even looking. Her heart was filled with warmth and gratitude.

"I want you to take care of Yue for me for a few days. I need to go out and do something. Maybe when I get back, I'll be able to treat you to dinner. I'll thank you first. " Chen Xi said gratefully.

However, this time, Han Jingtian was silent for a long time. Chen Xi was not aware of Han Jingtian's family situation, but seeing his hesitation, Chen Xi knew that he was in a difficult situation.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work." This was an extremely demanding request.

"No, it's nothing. I just want to ask you where you're going now. " Han Jingtian's voice was filled with concern, making Chen Xi feel even more embarrassed.

But she couldn't tell him the truth, so she could only apologize and lie.

"This is my personal matter. I'm sorry, I can't tell you." Chen Xi said apologetically.

"It's alright. If you don't mind if I stay in your house, can I stay there and take care of Yue? I usually go home to live there. Sorry, I might not be able to bring Yue home. " Han Jingtian said apologetically.

Of course, Chen Xi knew why. She agreed immediately and sent Chen Yue back.

Han Jingtian had arrived at the door and had been waiting for a long time. When Chen Xi saw him, she smiled gently.

"Sorry to trouble you again. It's just that Yue knows you and might not cause any trouble. I can't think of anyone else to look for either. " Chen Xi lowered her head and whispered in embarrassment.

"It's alright, this is not a big deal. You don't have to thank me all the time. You're being so polite." However, Han Jingtian did not like Chen Xi's courtesy. "Last time, didn't we already become friends?"

Chen Xi was stunned.

Friend, she didn't have such a concept. Up till now, she had never made a single friend. Because of Chen Yue, Chen Xi was very afraid of interacting with others, and also afraid that Chen Yue would be looked down upon. So to everyone in the school, Chen Xi was very distant.

But now that Han Jingtian said they were friends, Chen Xi was indeed touched.

Nodding, Chen Xi sniffed and said, "Yes, we are friends."

After she opened the door and brought Han Jingtian and Chen Yue in, Chen Xi and Han Jingtian talked about something important, and then it took a lot of effort to convince Chen Yue to listen to Han Jingtian and let Chen Xi out for a few days.

Han Jingtian felt that Chen Xi was even more unhappy than that day. After Chen Xi coaxed Chen Yue to sleep, she called Chen Xi to stop.

"As you said, we are friends. I hope my friend will be happy. Chen Xi, like I said before, you look really good when you smile. " Han Jingtian took out a handful of chocolate and put it in Chen Xi's palm, "If you're not happy, you can eat one. It might make you feel better. Although days are not as sweet and sweet as days, but no matter what, we still have to be happy. "

Looking at the colorful candy in her hand, Chen Xi could not help but think back to the orphanage years ago. During every festival, there would be people who were kind enough to give them snacks. At that time, they would get some candy. But she hadn't eaten these for a long time.

Chen Xi smiled and put the candy away in her palm.

"Thank you." Chen Xi raised her head and smiled at Han Jingtian. For many things, I say thank you. "Han Jingtian, it's been a long time since someone told me that he's going to laugh."

Han Jingtian smiled, ruffled Chen Xi's hair and shrugged.

When he entered the operation room the next day, Ling Xun had already been drugged and fell asleep. Chen Xi looked at Ling Xun, who was beside her. Under the effect of the anesthetic, he gradually closed his eyes. However, there was a smile on his face, a smile of satisfaction.

Ling Xun, I've loved you for so long, do you know?
