Chapter 167: Unpaid Bills
A nurse approached the entrance of the room but did not walk in. She was repulsed by the scent and said, “This place smelly to death, it’s really damn bad!”
Before Fang Xinxin could interrogate the hospital on the way they treated their patients, the nurse raised her voice and reprimanded her. “Someone has finally come to visit this patient. You must be Long Yifan’s family member. Quickly pay up! This patient owes the hospital more than two months of medical fees. Our hospital isn’t a charity foundation. We have been very kind to him by not tossing him onto the streets till now!”
“Hasn’t the Fang Group been paying the medical bills every month?”
“What Fang Group? Why haven’t I heard of this?” The nurse stuck a bill against the door. “Look, I came to deliver a new bill again. This patient has a drawer full of unsettled invoices. Our hospital director has already ordered that this room is too smelly and there are frequent complaints from neighbouring wards. If Long Yifan’s family members still won’t clear up his debts, we will throw him out.”
“How long has it been since a family member came to visit him?”
“It’s been three years. Aside from you, no one has come to see him. Uh... how are you related to Long Yifan?”
The Fang family actually did not come to visit him? Fang Xinxin was angered to the point of wanting to kill someone. Her blood was boiling but her heart was frozen cold. “I’m his daughter.”
“Then quickly pay up!”
“I’ll do it immediately.” Fang Xinxin replied angrily. “Quickly ask your nurses to come and clean up the room! Get a doctor to treat my dad!”
“Pay the bills first.” The nurse was worried that she would not settle the accounts.
Fang Xinxin did not say anything and immediately headed to the counter to pay. She also deposited fifty thousand dollars for emergency use.
Then she checked the past payment records.
It turned out that her brother, Fang Shaohua, had paid for three years of treatment for her father, at one go, three years ago.
For the past two months, because the money ran out, they had only supplied him with oxygen and the minimum amount of nutrition that he needed to stay alive.
This hospital hired their care workers externally.
Without the money, the care workers were unwilling to look after her father. As a result, no one had paid attention to his deteriorating condition. At this moment, his body was marred with rotten flesh.
If it wasn’t for the hospital sending nurses to clean him up on a few occasions, his life would already have been lost.
Fang Xinxin sobbed uncontrollably.
“Xinxin ah, don’t worry about your father. Your mom will take good care of him. We’ve been married for more than twenty years. How could I possibly treat him poorly? I’ll pay for all of his treatment fees! You don’t have to put in any effort or money. All you have to do is to say some nice words to Bai Qinghao, so that he will give us more financial support...”
Her mother’s words kept repeating in her head.
She had genuinely believed that her mother had been taking care of her father. To think that for the past three years, she did not even pay the fees for his treatment!
Fang Xinxin was still a student. In the past, she really did not have much money.
For the sake of her father, she often praised the Fang family in front of Bai Qinghao. This was the reason why her mother had been able to obtain more than ten million dollars from Bai Qinghao.
For the past few years, Fang Lilan, Fang Manxue and Long Shuhai had splurged extravagantly.
The only reason her mother could repay Bai Qinghao was because her father single-handedly operated the Fang Group for many years and brought them enough success so that the accounts always contained a large sum of money.
As of now, the Fang Group’s accounts were empty. This meant that the money they had been spending for the past few years was the hard-earned money which her father had earned.
Fang Xinxin rushed back to the ward and saw a doctor treating her father.
