Xiao Sheng asked a few more questions, and Dr. Min answered them patiently one by one.

As soon as Dr. Min left, a couple entered the ward and walked straight to Xiao Li’s bed. “Hello, is this Xiao Li’s bed?”

Xiao Sheng paused and turned to look at the couple in front of him.

The man was wearing a tunic suit, while the woman was wearing a Lenin suit and carrying a beautiful small leather bag. Both of them were wearing imported watches. Their leather shoes looked new and polished.

The man looked at them with a hint of condescension.

Xiao Sheng stopped peeling the apple. After confirming that he didn’t know the other party, he sat down when he saw the man’s gaze. “May I ask who you are?

The woman smiled. “My name is Ning Bi. This is my husband, Jiang Heng.

You’re Xiao Li l s brother, right? We have something to discuss with you.”

As Xiao Sheng sized up the two of them, he felt that they didn’t come with good intentions. However, he had to understand the other party’s motive first before he could make his next move. “Tell me.”

Ning Bi took out 10,000 yuan from her bag and placed it on the bed. “My daughter is the next patient to undergo cornea surgery. I want to buy your sister’s queue spot with 10,000 yuan.”

Xiao Sheng looked down at the 10,000 yuan on the bed. Xiao Lin widened his eyes when he heard this. They had waited for so long before it was their turn.

How could they buy the spot just like that? Who cared about this bit of money?! Their family could afford it too!

As Xiao Li leaned against the bedhead, she was stunned.

Yu Bing frowned as she looked at the well-off couple in front of her.

Xiao Sheng retracted his gaze and continued to peel the apple as he said emotionlessly, “I’m not selling it.”

Jiang Heng and Ning Bi exchanged looks. They didn’t expect to be rejected. Peasants might only earn 10,000 yuan in their entire lives!

Jiang Heng gestured for his wife to continue.

Ning Bi smiled. She didn’t care about Xiao Shengs cold attitude and continued, “I heard that you guys came from the countryside. The surgery fee is at least 20,000 yuan. I reckon you guys have already borrowed from everyone you can. Why do you have to do this? You can only farm for the rest of your lives and make your family owe such a large debt. You might not be able to repay it for the rest of your lives!”

Xiao Sheng pretended not to hear her and focused on peeling the apple skin.

Jiang Heng and his wife were both government workers. His father worked in the army, so he was used to others flattering him. When he saw Xiao Sheng ignore them, he felt a little angry and said coldly, “Kid, don’t be too arrogant!

First, figure out if your family background can compare to mine.”

When Xiao Lin heard these threatening words, he looked at Xiao Sheng worriedly.

Xiao Shengs gaze was still on his hand as he smirked and said, “No matter what, I insist on my choice. Otherwise, how can I live up to the evaluation you gave me?

As soon as he finished speaking, the apple was completely peeled. Xiao Sheng looked at it with a smile. Then, he threw it into the trash can at the side. “It looks quite nice. Unfortunately, it’s just trash.”

After Xiao Sheng placed the apple in Xiao Li l s hand, he slowly wiped the juice on his finger with a handkerchief. His actions were so elegant that he didn’t look like he came from the countryside.

After Jiang Heng was first rendered speechless by Xiao Sheng with his words

and was referred to as trash, his expression turned livid.

Seeing this, Ning Bi knew that it was impossible to force Xiao Sheng and continued to say with a smile, “When girls in the countryside grow up, they usually only have one path, which is to get married! You guys are from the countryside, so you’re most likely to get married in the countryside. No matter how rich you are, your family can only save a few hundred yuan a year. This is already considered rich for you guys.”

“So what if Xiao Li marries well? Her mother-in-law will be in charge of the family’s money. How can she use her husband’s family’s money to pay off her debts? In the end, the debt will belong to the two of you. Or should I ask Xiao Li directly? Does she really have to be so selfish?”

If Xiao Li l s surgery fees had been saved up, even if she was persuaded to come to the hospital for treatment, when she heard this, she would definitely refuse to undergo surgery out of guilt.

Unfortunately, Ning Bi had miscalculated. It was impossible for the Xiao family to reveal the source of the money and it would be better if others thought that they had borrowed the money..
