Chapter 379: Chapter 379 Left something for He Yuming

Cheng Zhiwei wiped her tears gently and said, "His father is currently in the hospital, and he’s not doing well."

Xu Tian’s eyes were tearful, but she didn’t speak.

The He family had brought this on themselves.

But Father He...

Cheng Zhiwei looked at Xu Tian for a long while before saying, "He Lanzhi’s father is in the hospital and cannot afford the medical fees. Lanzhi thinks... to give up on treatment."

Xu Tian frowned, "Can’t afford the medical expenses?"

Even though the He family was bankrupt, they hadn’t reached a point of utter desperation.

Father He’s medical expenses could definitely still be covered by the He family; even if it meant selling their house, it would be enough.

But for some reason, they refused.

Cheng Zhiwei had shared this news with Xu Tian because, during her time with the He family, Lanzhi’s father had treated her quite well.

It was evident since Father He had entrusted the company to her.

Now, Lanzhi and Mother He were at fault, but the most pitiful was Father He.

Cheng Zhiwei didn’t want Xu Tian to have any regrets about this time in the future.

Xu Tian understood Cheng Zhiwei’s intention too. She thought for a few seconds and quickly made a decision, "Come with me, please."

"Okay."

When they arrived at the hospital and got the details, they learned that Father He’s condition was really bad. The medication only temporarily prolonged his life and wasn’t a long-term solution.

Using it or not seemed to make no difference.

"The medical fees are already overdue by tens of thousands; they haven’t come to pay," the nurse said helplessly. "No matter what, with the medication, at least the patient can be more comfortable."

Not just suffer through it.

Xu Tian didn’t ask any more questions. She not only paid the overdue medical fees but also paid extra, asking the hospital to contact her regarding the medical expenses and hired a nurse to take care of Father He.

Everything was arranged perfectly.

But Xu Tian did not speak to him, instead standing outside by the door, which was slightly ajar, and glanced at him from a distance.

That was enough.

After all, she didn’t know how to face Father He and still felt somewhat guilty.

Just as she was about to leave, she ran into Lanzhi and Mother He, who had come to the hospital to process Father He’s discharge.

Originally, it was only Mother He who came, but Lanzhi had to come to change her bandages, so they came together.

Seeing Xu Tian, Mother He’s expression changed first, and her tone was particularly harsh, "Xu Tian, what are you doing here?"

Xu Tian replied calmly, "Just taking a look."

"Xu Tian, you and Lanzhi are already divorced, our He family has nothing to do with you anymore, I don’t want to see you again," Mother He said heartlessly.

Xu Tian had already seen Mother He’s true colors and didn’t show her any courtesy, asking directly, "Why give up on treatment?"

Lanzhi, turning her wheelchair forward, spoke coldly, "This is our family’s matter, and it has nothing to do with you."

Xu Tian laughed out of frustration, raising her voice, "He may not have much chance left, but continuing in the hospital, at least he could be more comfortable. Are you intending for him to suffer and die by not giving him treatment?"

"It’s all because of you!" Lanzhi roared, unable to hold back, "If it weren’t for you causing our family to end up like this, we wouldn’t be unable to afford the treatment."

She was incompetent, so she blamed others, seemingly to mask her own failures.

"How much could it possibly cost? Sell the house, and it would more than cover his medical expenses."

Xu Tian, known for her straightforward and fiery nature, spoke without mincing words, "Are you unwilling to do it? Want to save it for your own old age?"

Her words pierced through Lanzhi’s intentions.

The He family was bankrupt, and the only asset left was that house, which could still sell for five to six million.

Five to six million yuan, and Father He’s medical expenses would only be a few tens of thousands, at most a hundred thousand or so.

Lanzhi refused.

Lanzhi sneered sarcastically, "His illness is incurable, why waste that money? Besides, we’re not like you, holding several hundreds of millions."

Lanzhi was very upset that Xu Tian hadn’t used her money to save the company.

"Even if it can’t be cured, he could at least live more comfortably," Xu Tian continued, enduring her frustration, "Lanzhi, you’re just selfish, unwilling to spend the money on his treatment."

"So what if I’m selfish? I’m now disabled, and that house will appreciate over time, what do you know?" Lanzhi scoffed.

"Xu Tian, don’t come here again," Mother He said impatiently. "Besides, he’s being discharged today, you won’t see him anymore."

As they were speaking, the nurse came and said, "Bed 42 has prepaid two months’ medical fees, he won’t be discharged just yet."

Mother He and Lanzhi both looked at Xu Tian.

Only she would do something like this.

"Xu Tian, you really know how to pretend," Lanzhi said mockingly. "After ruining our family like this, now you come here playing the good person."

"Your family ended up like that because you deserved it; me paying his medical bills is my business and has nothing to do with you."

"We are not staying, discharge him immediately," Lanzhi shouted to the nurse.

The nurse was baffled; the medical fees had already been paid, and they still wanted to leave?

"He cannot be discharged," Xu Tian rebuked sharply.

"He is my father, it has nothing to do with you."

Mother He also said, "Xu Tian, you are no longer a part of the He family, you have nothing to do with us."

As family members are prioritized, the nurse had no choice but to proceed with the discharge.

Just then, the caretaker came out of the ward, "Mr. He is asking for Miss Xu to come in."

Father He had woken up.

He wanted to see Xu Tian.

Xu Tian entered the hospital room, feeling somewhat uncomfortable, but did not show it, "You wanted to see me."

She was prepared, ready to face Father He’s reproach.

Father He, struggling to breathe, reached under his pillow and handed Xu Tian a key, "This is the key to a bank safety deposit box, along with the password. Get the items when you leave."

"What items?" Xu Tian asked.

She didn’t want them.

She only wanted to leave the He family.

Father He sighed with a somber expression, "It’s something I saved for He Yuming. Give it to him when he grows up."

Xu Tian immediately returned the key. She didn’t want it.

Father He gasped, "I know about everything that happened outside, don’t worry about it, I don’t blame you."

"Their mother and son’s character is just like that. Let it go, no matter what, He Yuming is still a child of the He family, I should leave something for him, and I have made a will, it won’t cause you any trouble."

"I don’t want it, I can support He Yuming myself."

"I said, it’s my wish, you can’t refuse for He Yuming," Father He said, his breathing becoming more labored.

His illness was severe; he didn’t have much time left.

When Lanzhi’s leg was broken, he knew the He family couldn’t be saved, so he made his final arrangement.

For He Yuming’s sake.
