C19 Human Debt

At that moment, Su Rui's cell phone rang again. She picked it up and looked at the caller ID. It displayed Lee Ai's name.

Su Rui's heart tightened. She had been reversed today, forgetting that she still had a friend who had just lost her marriage and needed to be comforted.

"Hello." "Su Rui." However, after she picked up the call, Lee Ai's voice was still as lively as ever, "Sis is divorced. We'll go to Alex's bar tonight, and we won't leave until we're drunk!"

Su Rui was stunned. Lee Ai's carefreeness eased her worry.

"I may not be able to come until very late tonight, but I will make up for this wine for you. Where are you now? " Su Rui asked quietly.

"Here at Alex. You must come over tonight. I'm still waiting for you to take me in. Big Sis is already homeless. " Lee Ai chuckled again. "When you're done, come pick me up at the bar."

"Homeless?" Su Rui caught on to a key word.

Was she driven out by Shang Tiannan alone? Even if he was divorced, he wouldn't be so heartless.

"My sister did a very silly thing, and she didn't ask for a penny." Ha ha-ha, your self-esteem is really f * cking expensive! " Lee Ai still had a carefree look on her face, but her words caused Su Rui to be at a loss whether to laugh or to cry. In the end, it turned into an involuntary smile that was heart-aching and straightforward.

"You're an idiot." She scolded Lee Ai dotingly.

Previously, she kept saying that she couldn't leave Shang Tiannan for the sake of material life, but when she really reached the point where she had to give her all, she was more free and easy than anyone else.

Stupid woman. Why did he have to keep deceiving himself?

"Then it's a deal, wait till you bring me home tonight." Lee Ai was about to hang up the phone after she finished speaking.

"Lee Ai …" Su Rui stopped her and asked subconsciously, "Have you heard of Si Guanqun?"

Judging from the relationship between Shang Tiannan and him, perhaps Lee Ai knew the background of that person.

"Of course. Did you see him? " Lee Ai was shocked, "Tiannan …. Oh, no, Shang Tiannan was unable to see her even once, no matter how hard he tried.

Su Rui avoided answering and continued to ask, "What kind of person is he?"

"I don't know what kind of people they are. I only know that there are two people who can't be offended if they want to stay in the Chinese circle. The first was the current Black Emperor, an A, who still did not know his true identity. The second is Si Guanqun. "

"Why?"

"Why? One word, unfathomable. He heard that his family background was very good, and he himself was even more clueless. Why do you ask about him? It can't be something to do with work, right? "

Lee Ai couldn't help asking about the relationship between Si Guanqun and Su Rui. Su Rui responded vaguely to her question and hung up the phone.

Si Guanqun, does he have such a deep background?

This reminded Su Rui of one thing: she absolutely could not have anything to do with him. Otherwise, he might really be unable to escape.

However, how was one to repay a debt of gratitude?

Su Rui had been waiting outside the hospital, waiting for Xu Shaobai to come out of the operating room.

On the other hand, nothing had happened to Su's mother. Although her brain had been struck, it wasn't too bad that there weren't any side effects.

Lele's condition had stabilized. The surgery was scheduled for the day after tomorrow. In these two days, he had to make some preparations.

The donor of the heart was also certain that it was a child who had recently died from a fall from an upstairs building. Su Rui had met the child's parents at the hospital and hoped they would donate their hearts. However, the parents of the children at that time flatly refused her request.

Su Rui could also understand their thoughts: If the child was gone and the heart was given to someone else, how would she be able to handle his parents?

Su Rui didn't want to be moved by her feelings. Sometimes, there was no logic to the ties and persistence between people.

For some reason, they had changed their minds.

"I heard your friend gave them a lot of money." Apparently seeing through Su Rui's doubts, the nurse beside her who was explaining the main points of the operation whispered to her.

When Su Rui heard this, she was no longer surprised.

Xu Shaobai didn't stay for long. He spoke in a concise manner, giving a few brief instructions for the past few days. Then, he left in a hurry. I heard he's going somewhere else today. There's an important lecture.

Su Rui sent Xu Shaobai off. Her mother and Lele were both resting in the senior ward and had professional care for them. In contrast, she seemed insignificant.

Su Rui was exhausted. When the dust settled, she looked up at the clock in the hall.

The clock said 6: 30, and it had been more than six hours since she'd received the call.

Su Rui suddenly remembered what Si Guanqun had told her: he would leave the hotel at ten.

If she didn't return the money to him before ten o'clock, there would be a tacit understanding between them. This was the rule of the adult world.

There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

But how much? Su Rui didn't even dare to think about it. After calculating for a bit, it would at least cost a million. That's right, she had to pay him back at least a million. Actually, one million was not enough. The amount of money he gave to that donor was probably an astronomical figure.

— A number that was enough for his parents to personally bury and think about his dead son.

However, forget it, let's just treat it as a million. She wasn't a stubborn person, so she didn't want to show off in this aspect. To Si Guanqun, she was a weakling.

Since he was a weakling, as long as he put in all his effort, he wouldn't lose face.

Su Rui stood up.

She left her phone number with the hospital nurse and finally left.

A million before ten in the evening.

This seemed to be an impossible task, but there was always a way … Su Rui stood at the entrance of the hospital and took a deep breath. She was finally reassured and walked with large strides towards Yongan Street, which was located behind the Central Hospital.

It was an ancient street with the style of Ming and Qing dynasties preserved in it. The buildings on both sides of the street were of the same style as the Ming and Qing dynasties. The bank, for example, would be made in ancient silver, with a tall, brown, solid wood counter. The pharmacy, store, and restaurant were all filled with an ancient flavor.

Many small restaurants with unique styles were even more popular than the high-class clubs. It would take them a few months in advance to find their seats.

Amongst them, there were also some very, very ancient industries.

For example …

Yongan Street had many alleys, many of which looked normal on the surface, but after entering, one would find that there was a special place inside. Many of the specialties of a small restaurant or restaurant were hidden in the alleyway. If one did not check the route on the internet, it would be very difficult to find one.

The place Su Rui wanted to go wasn't a small restaurant. She stopped at a staircase that led to the basement. The staircase was flat, with a small grocery store beside it.

Inside the grocery store, the lazy-looking shopkeeper crossed his legs as he watched a retarded costume drama.

Su Rui lowered her head, weighing the pros and cons.

If he went on, it might be a long, unbreakable nightmare.

She hesitated for a long time, then turned and left.
