Chapter 697 - 696: Your Big Brother Will Always Be Your Big Brother

Chapter 697: Chapter 696: Your Big Brother Will Always Be Your Big Brother

Sie Yufei had spent all his restraint on Guan Manling in this lifetime.

Otherwise, he would have forcibly taken her home long ago.

Now, he only regretted not forcing her to marry him.

He was pressing down on Old Wu’s neck, wanting to question him why, after marrying her, he did not cherish her properly, why she was so sick, why, why...

Old Wu was having difficulty breathing, his face already swelling red.

But he didn’t struggle; the emptiness and helplessness in his eyes left him without the will to break free.

Guan Manling had spoken to him about Sie Yufei.

Ideas that had always been buried deep in Old Wu’s heart were now hooked out by Sie Yufei’s wool coat, leather gloves, and the shiny silver watch on his wrist.

He suddenly remembered what the doctor had said before.

"... For one month, it would probably cost around one hundred and fifty yuan, maybe even more, and once started, treatment couldn’t be stopped arbitrarily..."

One hundred and fifty yuan; combined, the wages of their two families were not enough.

Old Wu stared steadily at Sie Yufei.

For him... this sum of money, probably wasn’t even worth a second thought...

If it had been him, Guan Manling wouldn’t have gone to the Great Northern Wilderness; perhaps she would have had an easy job in some factory, or maybe she would have been recommended to go to university, or managed the household and meals at home...

Perhaps she wouldn’t even be in the hospital.

Old Wu, filled with regret.

He didn’t struggle, his eyes vacant and lifeless.

"Sie Yufei, Sie Yufei, let him go, this is a hospital."

Lin Nianhe was tugging at Sie Yufei’s arm, trying to pull him away.

Sie Yufei was in a rage, furious and strong, and Lin Nianhe couldn’t pull him off.

The surrounding doctors and nurses were all stunned.

Because Lin Nianhe was a frequent visitor to the hospital, and Sie Yufei had often come to the hospital in the past.

Anyone with some seniority in the hospital knew that although the Fourth Son of Sie Family was unreliable, he had a very good temper and was polite to everyone.

"Sie Yufei!"

Just as the doctors and nurses also wanted to come forward and pull him away, a loud shout came from the staircase.

Sie Yuguo’s military boots hit the floor with firm and resounding steps.

Seeing him, Lin Nianhe breathed a sigh of relief, immediately let go, and moved aside.

Sie Yuguo hurried over, his thick arms wrapped around Sie Yufei’s shoulders, forcibly pulling him away and throwing him against another wall.

"Getting bold now, daring to get into a fight?" Sie Yuguo glared at him, slapping his head, "Sie Yufei, I don’t care what made you so angry that you fought, now, apologize."

His voice was exceedingly cold and stern, making the nearby nurses involuntarily shrink their necks.

Sie Yufei’s head was buzzing.

Leaning against the wall, he seemed to have lost all strength, without any reaction.

Su Yuncheng arrived shortly after, silently walked up to Lin Nianhe’s side, and pulled her away a bit.

On the other end, Sie Yuguo pointed at Sie Yufei’s nose and scolded: "I sent you to record the hardships of the comrades in the battalion at the Forest, but did you fucking leave your brain there too? Yes, you knew Guan Manling earlier, and you like her too, but now she is not your wife. Why the hell are you panicking?"

Sie Yufei opened his mouth, looking at his elder brother whom he had feared since childhood, yet not feeling the usual fear. Instead, it was like he found his mainstay, looking at him, his lips trembling as he uttered his words: "Brother, you... you help her, save, save her, she, she..."

The people around looked at Sie Yufei with a noticeably changed gaze.

This kid... a real Casanova.

Sie Yugu felt a surge of blood pressure.

He slapped Sie Yufei’s head again and yelled, "Shut up!"

Sie Yugu took several quick breaths to regain his composure, then immediately turned and bowed apologetically to Old Wu, "Sorry comrade, my brother acted impulsively and caused you trouble... Look, here’s the hospital. I’ll go with you to check your health first, okay?"

Old Wu rubbed his neck subconsciously, then shook his head, "I’m fine, not blaming him... He was just too anxious, I understand."

Sie Yugu turned back to glare at Sie Yufei with a changed tone, "I’ll deal with you at home!"

He pressed his temples twice, then asked Lin Nianhe, "Xiao He, who’s the doctor you asked Uncle Lin to find?"

Lin Nianhe hurriedly responded, "My dad said he found Doctor Chu, the best expert for this kind of illness."

While they were speaking, Doctor Chu came out, "Commander Sie, it’s me."

"Good, please thank Uncle Lin for me," Sie Yugu said to Lin Nianhe, then turned to Doctor Chu, "Doctor Chu, sorry for the trouble, how’s Comrade Guan’s illness?"

"Well..." Doctor Chu looked at Old Wu, "They want to opt for conservative treatment."

"In that case," Sie Yugu pondered for a moment and said, "treat her with the best method available, and let the Sie Family cover the medical expenses."

While speaking, he took out his wallet and looked at the few banknotes inside, then spoke to Su Yuncheng after a moment of silence, "Yuncheng, do you have any money on you? Lend me some."

Su Yuncheng fetched his wallet, taking out all eighty yuan, "Here, our families’ money for New Year’s shopping."

"Alright, tell my uncle I’ll return half next month and the rest the following month."

Sie Yugu took the money along with his own from the wallet and handed it to Old Wu, "Comrade, take this money for now, to treat Comrade Guan."

Though the notes were devoid of warmth, they felt exceptionally hot in the hand.

Old Wu instinctively shook his head, "This isn’t right, there’s no reason for you to pay..."

"Comrade," Sie Yugu smiled and pressed Old Wu’s hand back, "My brother and Comrade Guan are also friends. Regardless of what happened before, we can’t just stand by and watch someone in need. Rest assured, the Sie Family will take care of this through to the end."

"No, no, this won’t do..." Old Wu tried to give the money back.

Sie Yugu held the money, silent for a moment before turning to Doctor Chu, "Doctor Chu, charge Guan Manling’s treatment to my father’s account. I’ll come to clear it up monthly, is that okay?"

Doctor Chu nodded, "Okay."

"You hold onto this money for now, call me anytime if it isn’t enough," said Sie Yugu as he passed the money to Doctor Chu.

Doctor Chu accepted the money, "Then I’ll go settle their bills."

"Thank you for your hard work," Sie Yugu thanked with his hands pressed together, then turned to Old Wu, "Comrade, I’ve taken the liberty of deciding on the money matter, so please don’t worry about it. Getting well is the most important thing of all."

Old Wu’s lips quivered, wanting to refuse, but he truly couldn’t bear to.

If it were just him, he wouldn’t accept no matter what.

But for Lingling...

Old Wu cast his eyes down, each word resolute and strong, "I will definitely repay this money."

"Treatment first, we can talk about these things later," Sie Yugu patted his arm, "Sorry for causing trouble... I’m going to take this troublemaker back home now, and I’ll make sure he won’t bother you in the future."

"It’s, it’s okay..."

Sie Yugu turned and grabbed Sie Yufei by the back of the neck, dragging him out without further discussion.

"Bro, Bro..."

"Say one more word, and I’m sending you off to be a live-in son-in-law tomorrow."

"..."

Watching the brothers walk away, Old Wu felt a mix of emotions.

Su Yuncheng watched Doctor Chu silently without making a sound.

Doctor Chu immediately understood and stepped forward to take Old Wu, "Come on, we need to recheck Comrade Guan’s condition and determine an effective treatment plan, bring her and follow me..."
