They followed Hong Yuexin and walked for another ten minutes before they entered Nine Wen Village one after the other.

According to Chen Guang's knowledge, this area should be the poorest region in the entire Shanghai, which was also commonly known as the 'slums'.

Actually, slums have quite a few names in the country, such as' villages in the city ', but they all have one thing in common – poverty.

Every slum was the gathering place for the poorest and most miserable people in the city, as was this village of Jiuwen.

A dilapidated concrete rental house made of random piles of inferior materials twisted and crooked as it formed a single piece.

Most of the people on the streets were thin and sallow, as if they hadn't eaten their fill all year round.

The ground was littered with random piles of garbage. Occasionally, he could even see smelly feces.

This kind of dirty and messy environment almost made Chen Guang retreat in defeat.

To tell the truth, after following Hong Yuexin for so long, his originally fighting spirit had already slowly dissipated, and what replaced it was the thought of using healing her mother to get the Medical Aura.

After all, Qin Youbai's current state was extremely unstable and she needed the Medical Aura's treatment. She didn't want to miss this opportunity to obtain it.

After following Hong Yuexin from a distance, and seeing her walk into an old, average, and short hut that was nothing special, Chen Guang immediately peeked outside the door.

In the room, an old woman was cooking with her back facing Hong Yuexin. Her movements were very slow, as if every action was extremely strenuous for her.

Seeing his mother's condition, Hong Yuexin took a deep breath, suppressed her exhaustion from rushing over, and allowed herself to reveal a cheerful smile. Only then did she say: "Mom, I'm back, huh? What's for lunch today? It smells so good! "

Hearing that, the old woman slowly stopped what she was doing, as though she had suddenly taken a few deep breaths, as though she had made some sort of important decision. She slowly turned around and looked Hong Yuexin in the eyes, "Yue Xin, don't buy any more medicine for me in the future."

If I don't buy medicine, that means I'll kill you myself.

The smile on Hong Yuexin's face, which had just recently risen, gradually became difficult to maintain. "Mom, didn't I already say many times, you don't need to worry about this matter."

"I don't care? You want me to not care about such medicine that costs hundreds of thousands every time? " The old woman's eyes turned red as she shouted, "Where did you get so much money? Your dead father and I will send you to school and we will arrange tutoring for you so that you can rise to prominence. We will let you enter a large company and marry an ordinary person. What kind of life are you living! You... You are going to die from anger... "Ahem!"

As she spoke, the old lady felt a tightness in her chest. She held it tightly in her chest and coughed out abruptly.

It was a mouthful of thick, bubbling blood, shocking to the eye.

Hong Yuexin's beautiful eyes were red. She felt wronged but also powerless.

She also wanted to live the life of an ordinary person. If she were to let her mother go just like that, then wouldn't she be worse than an animal?

The house had changed too much. His father had died trying to save him and his mother, and his mother had fallen into a strange illness. His face had been ruined, and his life had become a mess.

In this situation, Hong Yuexin could not think of any other solution other than quitting her job to find a loan shark.

When faced with a great calamity, each of them would fly away. They would never speak of it.

His relatives had fled far away, and his boyfriend of a month had left at the most dangerous moment. Everyone avoided his mother and daughter.

Thinking about the past, Hong Yuexin took a deep breath. She walked forward to help her mother up, and said softly: "You just need to take care of your health, I will take care of the other matters. "It's already like this, why are you still worrying so much."

The old woman looked at her obedient daughter, tears welling up in her eyes. "Other than me, who else would care about you …" Sigh, this is all fate. Natural and man-made disasters, one can't even hide from them. Rather than continuing to implicate you, I might as well just die like this. "

"What?!"

Hong Yuexin's heart suddenly shook. She couldn't help but use more strength in her hand, and pulled a bright red mark on the old woman's arm.

She stared at her mother and said word by word, "Mom, you can't have such thoughts. I'm only family!"

The old woman's heart throbbed with pain.

My daughter's original life path should have been that of an active career, with many men pursuing her and achieving happiness. But now …

Her heart ached as she touched the scar on Hong Yuexin's face and sighed: "Last time, the doctor also said that it would be the last period of treatment. This time, no matter if it's successful or not, don't buy anymore medicine.

Most of the time, the poor could only follow the flow. They had no power to resist the surging tide of destiny.

She was old and resigned. However, she didn't want to drag down her daughter any longer. Her future, her life was in chaos. Instead, she might as well die in a fire!

As she thought about it, the old woman suddenly felt her consciousness become a little blurry. Everything before her seemed to be covered with a layer of black cloth, and her appearance could not be seen clearly.

"Phew …" Whoosh! "Hu!"

She inhaled deeply, but she still felt that the oxygen was not enough, that she was still dizzy.

This is... An early sign of illness!

Putong.

The old woman's body fell stiffly to the ground, her hands clasped tightly around her daughter.

Hong Yuexin's pupils constricted as she immediately threw herself beside the old woman, shaking his mother crazily, "Mom! What's the matter with you? Don't scare me! "

"I... "I …" The old woman was short of breath. Her whole body gradually stiffened as if her muscles were no longer muscles but frozen bones. The stiff pain was excruciating. She was in so much pain that she couldn't even move a muscle.

"Phone... Wait for me, I'll contact the doctor right away! " Hong Yuexin's hands trembled as she tried to take out his phone in a panic. However, the more she panicked, the harder it was for him to do anything, as if his phone was smeared with oil, she couldn't even hold on to it.

After trying a few times, she finally held her phone tightly.

Crazy as a madman, he pressed the dial button, and a calm male voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello? Miss Hong Yuexin? "

"It's me!" It's me! "My mom …" What should she do? My mom is sick! " Hong Yuexin looked at his mother, whose eyes had started to show signs of breaking up. She was so anxious that her voice sounded like she was about to cry, as she spoke incoherently.

"Is that so? "Aunt is sick again …" The voice of the man on the other end of the phone was very calm, as if he had heard that there was a discount at the fruit stand on the roadside rather than a serious illness.

"So, are you ready for your money?" Three hundred and fifty thousand, even if I lost one point, I wouldn't make a move. " The calm voice spoke with cold words.

Hong Yuexin's heart stopped for a fraction of a second. Her eyes were red as he pleaded, "Dr. Long, can you please help my mother treat her first? I'll give you the money tomorrow! I'm begging you! "

"I'm sorry, I can only treat you with money. If you don't have money, then I'll see you later." Dr. Long's calm voice had become somewhat colder.

Even if it's just some traditional Chinese medicine supplements with some painkillers, there's a cost. Based on your current situation, you want me to prescribe medicine before paying? Hehe!

Dr. Long knew clearly that the old lady's disease was a human's problem, there was no one in the world who could cure it, and what he had sold to them were all tonics and medicine, and a layer of health care products wrapped in pills. As for how to treat this disease, he didn't even know.

However, he could still tell when his illness would completely break out, so he wanted to make a final stroke before the old woman died. Before the money was paid, the old man would not be able to hold on for much longer.

Useless trash!

Dr. Long's eyes flashed with a cold light. If he continued to look over there now, he would only get himself into trouble.

"Dr. Long, I beg you to save my mother, I beg you, I beg you! No matter what you want me to do, I'm willing. Please save my mother! "

On the other end of the phone, Hong Yuexin was already tearing her heart out from crying as the old lady's condition worsened.

Unfortunately, Dr. Long's attitude still did not change.

If it was earlier on, he might have gone over to take a look and delay his condition a bit, and then used this as a reason to take advantage of Hong Yuexin. It was too late.

"I won't go without money. Hong Yuexin, since Aunt is already at her wit's end, I think it's more important that you prepare the tomb as soon as possible. Also, don't contact me again in the future."

Du du du...

The phone was hung up unilaterally.

Hong Yuexin stared at her phone in a daze as tears rolled down her cheeks.
