Chapter 251: Chapter 251: The Last Chance_1
Considering that this elderly couple truly cares about their daughter, Qin Sisi did not want to hold their earlier rudeness against them.
The most important thing right now is to treat Xie Kexin.
Qin Sisi pondered for a moment, then said to Mother Xie and Father Xie, "I can cure your daughter, but you have to follow my instructions."
Upon hearing Qin Sisi’s confident words, Father Xie was both surprised and delighted, hurriedly saying, "Okay, okay, as long as you can cure my daughter, I’ll do anything you ask."
Mother Xie, tears in her voice, said, "Good girl, as long as my daughter can be safe and sound, I’m willing to give up my own life for you."
Qin Sisi was somewhat speechless and said in a light tone, "It’s not that serious. My request is simple. Tonight, I will be the only one staying in the ward with Xie Kexin, everyone else will wait outside. No matter what you hear, you are not allowed to come in."
After hearing Qin Sisi’s request, not only Mother Xie and Father Xie hesitated, but even Ning Hao, Director Liu, and Teacher Yang all looked at each other, showing their doubts.
Seeing Mother and Father Xie’s hesitation, Qin Sisi pointed at Xie Kexin and said, "Look at her complexion. She’s already close to death. Tonight is her last chance. Her life and death are in your hands."
Father Xie’s heart leapt, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, I agree."
Mother Xie naturally followed her husband’s lead and quickly echoed, "I agree too."
Qin Sisi nodded and turned to Director Liu and said, "Director Liu, I assume you have no objections?"
Director Liu was in a tight spot. Qin Sisi was his last hope.
Director Liu braced himself and said, "Okay, Ms. Qin. We’re counting on you tonight. Once this matter is resolved, you will be handsomely rewarded."
Qin Sisi nodded lightly. She wasn’t particularly interested in Director Liu’s "generous reward", but she did not refuse, as it would potentially raise suspicion.
As for Teacher Yang, there was no need to ask. Since Director Liu had agreed, she naturally would not oppose.
Moreover, if Xie Kexin could truly be cured, it would be a happy outcome for her as the homeroom teacher.
As for Ning Hao, he knew of Qin Sisi’s abilities, she was confident that he would support her.
Having settled the matter, Qin Sisi let out a sigh of relief and walked towards the door, saying, "I’m a bit hungry, let’s go eat."
Director Liu quickly said, "Right, right, let’s eat first. We need energy to work."
When Mother Xie and Father Xie saw Qin Sisi and the others going, they let out a sigh but didn’t know what to say.
Qin Sisi turned back to the elderly couple and said, "Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon. I will cure Xie Kexin."
Upon hearing these words, the nervous expressions of Mother Xie and Father Xie eased a bit.
Director Liu wanted to treat Qin Sisi and the others to a feast, so he suggested a fancy restaurant nearby.
Qin Sisi laughed and said, "Director Liu, you don’t have to be so polite. I still need to hurry back to the hospital, let’s just grab something to eat nearby."
Ning Hao, sensing it was Qin Sisi’s show, and abiding by the principle of no payment without contribution, didn’t want to go somewhere fancy either, so he agreed with Qin Sisi’s proposal.
Teacher Yang is relatively easy-going, anything would do.
When Director Liu saw that both Qin Sisi and Ning Hao were in agreement, he didn’t insist any further and amiably said, "Alright, let’s go with your suggestion. Once this issue is resolved, we will have a proper celebration."
So, following Qin Sisi’s proposal, Director Liu found a clean little restaurant where they all had a quick meal.
When they were leaving, Qin Sisi ordered fried rice to take away.
Director Liu asked curiously, "Miss Qin, this is..."
Qin Sisi smiled, "It’s for my cat."
Giving Ye You food in public could draw too much attention and possibly objections from the restaurant owners. So, Qin Sisi had intentionally packed some food to give to Ye You in the hospital.
Director Liu looked oddly at the black cat in Qin Sisi’s arms. Both times he met Qin Sisi, she had this black cat with her. Even someone who doted on their pet wouldn’t have it by their side while dealing with important matters.
Ning Hao, noticing Director Liu’s confusion, explained to him, "This cat is very spiritual. Didn’t you see it earlier?"
Earlier, when Xie Kexin’s father tried to be rude to Qin Sisi, he was stopped by this black cat.
Understanding dawned on Director Liu, this black cat was not a mere pet after all.
Director Liu had heard various sayings, some say that black cats are omens of ill-fortune, some say they are the most spiritual.
Regardless of which saying was true, it highlighted the black cat’s extraordinary nature.
Director Liu couldn’t help but give Ye You a few more glances, both Qin Sisi and her pet were quite unique!
As a group approached the entrance of the hospital, Qin Sisi said to the others, "Tonight, it’s enough for me to stay overnight with Xie Kexin. You guys don’t have to keep vigil. Go back and rest."
Ning Hao firmly stated, "I’ll stay with you."
Director Liu also said, "I’m the one who invited you here. How can I let you work hard while I sleep soundly?"
Qin Sisi laughed and said, "Director Liu, you don’t have to be so polite. Even if you stay, you’ll just be waiting outside, it’s pointless for you to tire yourselves out."
Teacher Yang also added, "I’ve been tired for several days because of this matter. One more night won’t hurt. If we can resolve everything tonight, it will be worth the exhaustion."
Director Liu nodded and graciously said, "Let’s go with you then, I wouldn’t feel comfortable otherwise."
Qin Sisi blinked and joked, "So Director Liu, you don’t trust me?"
Director Liu had a hearty laugh and loudly said, "I completely trust you. What worries me is Xie Kexin’s parents. If we’re not around and they make things hard for you again, it could become a problem."
Qin Sisi thought about it. Director Liu made sense. Xie Kexin’s parents were somewhat unreliable, having Liu and the others around would indeed make things more secure.
Thus, Qin Sisi didn’t refuse further, and the group walked into the hospital together.
Just as they reached the foot of the hospital building, Teacher Yang’s phone rang. She answered the call and after exchanging a few words, her face turned anxious.
After hanging up, Teacher Yang said awkwardly to Director Liu, "Director Liu, I got a call from home saying my child suddenly has a high fever and won’t stop crying, I think..."
Director Liu understood immediately and generously said, "Alright, I understand. Your child is important, go home, we’ll manage here."
Teacher Yang breathed a sigh of relief, said her goodbyes to Qin Sisi and Ning Hao, then hurriedly left the hospital to rush home.
Qin Sisi watched Teacher Yang’s hurried departure and asked out of concern, "Teacher Yang’s child is still young, right?"
Director Liu nodded and said, "Yes, just a few months old. It’s a challenging time."
The three of them continued their conversation as they entered the hospital building.
