Chapter 1080: Chapter 1080: Utter Disappointment

The next day, Luo Qiao packed up and played puzzles with some kids for a while. Seeing that it was about time, she prepared to leave.

Originally, Luo Qiao thought of going by herself, but Lu Yichen was already waiting at the door. Luo Qiao said, "Stay at home with the children. It’s not a big deal."

Lu Yichen took her bag and said, "I’ll accompany you there. Let’s go there and come back quickly."

Once outside, he added, "You slept too late last night, and I don’t feel comfortable with you driving. I’d rather take you myself to be reassured."

Luo Qiao rolled her eyes, thinking he had some nerve to mention her lack of sleep without acknowledging the reason why.

Her gesture did not escape Lu Yichen’s eyes. He affectionately touched her head and said, "Alright, it was my fault last night. After we’re done here, I’ll take you somewhere."

Luo Qiao gave him a glare and headed straight for the passenger side.

After getting into the car, Lu Yichen pulled her closer, "Really angry? I’ll control myself in the future. Who makes you so irresistible?"

He finished by planting a kiss on the corner of Luo Qiao’s mouth and said with an indulgent smile, "Sit tight, let’s go."

If it weren’t for Luo Qiao’s strong constitution, she would probably still be in bed at this moment, for that guy had too much energy and was too exhausting to deal with.

The two of them parked at the hospital and saw Luo Tianming and Feng Hui waiting there.

Luo Qiao approached, "Has everyone arrived?"

Luo Tianming shook his head, "We haven’t seen anyone. If they took last night’s train, they should be here soon."

Luo Qiao remarked lightly, "Without them here to sign, you won’t get the money. There aren’t any of their signatures on the IOU."

Feng Hui, puzzled, said, "Isn’t our signature enough? Why must they come, especially if it costs so much for the tickets?"

Luo Qiao looked towards the hospital entrance, "Even giving you the money comes with its risks. To put it bluntly, it’s to prevent trouble if you can’t pay it back. The debt would fall to your kids. They need to be aware to avoid disputes later on."

Feng Hui fell silent after hearing this.

Just then, Luo Qiao spotted Huo Yuhao walking in from outside and waved to him, "Huo Yuhao, over here."

After he walked over with a smile, Huo Yuhao greeted everyone and said, "Been waiting long?"

He greeted Lu Yichen as well before adding, "The train was delayed today."

Luo Qiao replied, "We just got here ourselves, haven’t waited long."

Then she introduced Luo Tianming and Feng Hui to Huo Yuhao. As everyone spoke, Luo Bin arrived with Luo Fei and Luo Rui.

Luo Fei and Luo Rui almost didn’t recognize Luo Qiao. They never imagined she had changed so much after all these years apart.

After the two greeted her, Luo Bin stood there, unsure of what to think. He wouldn’t have come at all if it weren’t for a desire to see Kaijing City.

Checking the time, Luo Qiao took them to a nearby teahouse, found a seat, and ordered a pot of tea, and that’s only after when they started talking business.

When Luo Bin heard that he needed to sign the IOU, his expression turned sour immediately, "Why do we have to sign?"

Luo Qiao began calmly, "It’s to let you know the amount of money the family has borrowed. If your parents can’t repay, then you’ll be responsible for it. It can’t be lent without any guarantee. Discuss it and then decide."

After finishing, Luo Qiao got up with Lu Yichen and Huo Yuhao and moved to the most distant seats, reordering themselves another pot of tea.

She explained to Huo Yuhao how to write up the agreement and that the money would have interest according to the bank’s fixed rates.

While the three of them were having a light-hearted conversation, Luo Bin was close to causing an uproar.

"Isn’t Luo Qiao supposed to be very rich? Then why do you still need to borrow from someone else? After raising her for so long, it wouldn’t be unreasonable for her to pay for this medical treatment, right?"

Luo Tianming was thoroughly disappointed and turned to silent Luo Fei and Luo Rui, "What do you think? To borrow or not?"

Luo Fei said, "Dad, as long as it can cure your illness, I have no objections."

Luo Rui glanced at his sullen older brother, "Dad, let’s borrow it. We have to treat the illness first, and then we can repay it together."

Luo Bin sneered, "You’re still in school, about to take college entrance exams this year. Easy for you to say. Unless you don’t want to go to college or take the exams, and find work now. I certainly can’t, and I won’t sign."

Luo Tianming was stung by his eldest son’s words, clutching his chest, almost collapsing.

Seeing this, Luo Rui rushed over, "Dad, my sister and I will sign. We will take responsibility. Don’t worry."

After Luo Tianming recovered, Luo Rui called everyone over. Huo Yuhao went over the rules of borrowing money and mentioned it was for the sake of Luo Qiao that they agreed to lend the money. Soon, the IOU was written, and ultimately, Luo Bin did not sign, but since others acknowledged it, Huo Yuhao didn’t mind.

Luo Qiao took Luo Tianming to the inpatient department to handle the admission formalities. The head doctor let them choose, prompting Feng Hui to say, "Aren’t you known for being a good doctor?"

Luo Qiao replied, "I mentioned yesterday that I’m on leave and will be leaving the country in a few days. The hospital has its regulations, and many here are my teachers anyway."

Once everything was settled, Luo Qiao headed out. Upon hearing that Luo Qiao would soon leave the country, many colleagues at the hospital greeted her and sent their best wishes.

Luo Qiao courteously thanked them and responded with a smile.

As they left the hospital, Luo Qiao turned to Huo Yuhao, "Let’s go. You’ve been a great help to us. Let me treat you to lunch."
