212 Try
Cui Li nodded and handed the report over. “Only Han Binglan’s match with Ah Chen’s.” The incident in Xiling City was hidden from the two elders.
Cui Zhanyi and Gu Meizhi looked at each other in surprise.
“Dad, Mom, we wanted to wait for a kidney donation, but it’s been so long and there’s no suitable one…”
“Then what do you want us to do?” Cui Zhanyi put down the report and looked at Cui Li seriously. It was a kidney, not a strand of hair. Besides, they had never cared about that girl all these years, let alone taken care of her.
“Can you guys convince her?” Cui Li cried again. “As long as she agrees to donate her kidney, I’ll be her slave in the future…”
“This…”
“We can’t help you with this.” Cui Zhanyi interrupted Gu Meizhi. “Because she won’t listen to us either.”
“Dad, Mom, you have to give it a try. Otherwise, Ah Chen will be done for.” Cui Li took a step forward. “Dad, I beg you.”
“We’re old and in poor health. We can’t take any more bumps.” Cui Zhanyi shook his head. His heart was weak, so he couldn’t fly at all. His wife’s waist was weak, so she couldn’t sit for long.
“Dad, it’s Mom’s birthday in a few days. Just call her back.” Cui Li quickly suggested, “If you ask, she probably won’t refuse.”
“Then let’s give it a try,” Gu Meizhi suddenly said. “Anyway, there are two kidneys. It’s fine to donate one. In the future, we’ll just help her out more.” She lowered her eyes to hide the hatred in them.
“Alright.” Cui Zhanyi glanced at his wife and nodded. “But, Lili, you need to find other channels as soon as possible. What if…”
“I know. Thank you, Dad and Mom.” Cui Li hurriedly nodded. “If it really doesn’t work, I won’t force it.”
Le Yao didn’t know that Cui Li was still thinking about her kidney. She did questions every day and would take a photo and send it to the group after she was done. Hong Xia would help her mark it and explain it if she didn’t know how to do it.
This resulted in Qian Meiqi, who was enjoying a beach bikini overseas, feeling embarrassed to just look at handsome men. She would also bring her papers and start doing questions when she went out.
As for Song Qiaoqiao and Wang Xia, they were too embarrassed to fall behind too.
Hence, even though it was clearly a holiday, there was the smell of gunpowder in the air for the college entrance examination.
On this day, just as she finished five papers, her old phone rang.
Le Yao picked it up and frowned. It was not a saved number, and it was not a local number. It showed that it was a landline in Beichuan City. She hesitated for a moment before picking it up. “Hello, who is this?”
“Lan, it’s Cui Zhanyi.” Cui Zhanyi’s voice was heard.
“Hello, old man.” Le Yao was surprised. “Why are you looking for me?” He hadn’t called her in so many years, so it was a little strange for him to suddenly call today.
Cui Zhanyi’s face darkened. “I’m your grandfather.” He sighed in his heart. She grew up in the countryside and had no manners at all.
“Then, Grandpa, why are you looking for me?” Le Yao readily agreed. It was just a form of address.
“Next Wednesday is your grandmother’s birthday. Your mother is gone, but you have to come and congratulate your grandmother on her behalf…”
Le Yao frowned. It had been five years since Han Binglan was found and she had never been notified once. Why did they want her to go over this year? If there was nothing fishy about this, her surname would be written backwards.
