Chapter 1078: Chapter 1078: Ruthless Enough

Luo Tianming hurriedly took out the previous doctor’s diagnosis and the X-ray films from his bag.

Luo Qiao, after looking at the films, said, "You need surgery as soon as possible to prevent further deterioration."

She knew they must have been aware of the situation; otherwise, they wouldn’t have come to Capital City. From the CT scan, it seemed the tumor’s location was not ideal. It was likely that doctors in Ji City had advised them to seek treatment in Capital City.

Feng Hui and Luo Tianming, upon hearing this, knew that the doctor in Ji City hadn’t lied to them, his tumor on the lung was not benign.

Luo Tianming suddenly slumped to the ground, and Feng Hui, startled, exclaimed, "Tianming, Tianming, don’t scare me, it’s alright, we’ll spend all we have to get treatment."

Feng Hui pulled but couldn’t get Luo Tianming off the ground, "Luo Qiao, please, we were wrong before, we shouldn’t have treated you that way, please save your dad."

Luo Qiao spoke indifferently, "I can only offer a suggestion. Since you already know the situation from the hospital in Ji City, you’re definitely here to be hospitalized. Don’t delay any further, go ahead and take care of the hospital admission."

After hearing Luo Qiao’s words, Luo Tianming and Feng Hui fell silent.

Luo Qiao looked at them, "What’s the matter, any concerns?"

Feng Hui spoke up, "Luo Qiao, we, we want to borrow some money from you."

Luo Qiao didn’t speak, just looked at them fixedly.

Luo Tianming really felt uncomfortable under her gaze, "We don’t have money, so we thought to find you, we’ll sign an IOU."

Luo Qiao burst out laughing, "So, this is the plan you’ve come up with after discussing at home for a few days."

Luo Tianming lowered his head upon hearing that, thinking Luo Qiao wouldn’t give them any face at all; that was harsh.

Feng Hui looked at Luo Qiao, "You can’t just stand by and do nothing."

Luo Qiao scoffed, "You have two sons and a daughter at home, it shouldn’t come down to me, huh? Your children, are they not willing to burden themselves, yet hoping to impose on me instead, the stand-in? You’re something else."

Saying this, she even gave a thumbs-up.

The onlookers were now even more contemptuous of the couple, finding them utterly shameless and selfish to the extreme.

Luo Qiao looked at her wristwatch, "How about this, you won’t be able to get checked if you’re admitted now anyway. Better to come early in the morning tomorrow to handle the admission procedures. If you don’t have the money now, I can find someone to lend it to you. After all, borrowing from anyone is still borrowing, especially since an IOU is involved."

Luo Tianming didn’t understand what Luo Qiao meant by that and looked at her, puzzled.

Luo Qiao calmly said, "I’m not currently working at the hospital, I’m about to go abroad for further studies, so I can’t do much to help you. Since you’ve come to me, for Grandma Luo’s sake, I’ll help you out.

The person lending the money is also from Ji City. I’ll call him in a bit and have him come over so you can meet him. It will be more convenient for you to repay the money since you’re all from the same place.

Plus, you must have your children sign the IOU, meaning if you can’t repay, then your children will be responsible for the debt. Of course, this will also offer the lender some security and peace of mind.

You know, these days, you can never be too sure about people’s intentions, right? If you agree, I’ll call him now so he can come over tomorrow. If you don’t agree, then you’ll have to figure something else out."

Luo Tianming closed his eyes and thought for a moment, realizing the cunningness, then stared at Luo Qiao for a while, "Alright, I agree."

Luo Qiao said plainly, "Okay, let’s go make the call together. Have your children come over to sign tomorrow."

They went to the payphone booth outside the hospital, and after making their calls, they agreed to meet at the hospital entrance at eight o’clock the next morning before parting ways.

Feng Hui asked as she watched Luo Qiao and her husband leave, "Tianming, are we really going to do as she says?"

"What choice do we have?"

"Who’s that man with Luo Qiao?"

"How would I know?"

"She clearly has money, so stingy. If she didn’t want to lend it, fine, but she did have to sound so high and mighty."

Luo Tianming watched Luo Qiao get into the small sedan parked across the street, thinking to himself about the life he would be leading had they not swapped sons.
