Xu Xiyun was stunned, his head bowed like a drenched dog. “I’m sorry, Teacher
Si, but... they’re using my grandmother against me. She’s very sick.” “Your grandmother?” Si Fuqing’s eyes darkened. ‘What’s going on?”The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to N0v3l--B1n.
“My grandmother is seriously ill,” Xu Xiyun explained, his head in his hands. “I borrowed money from the company to get her hospitalized. The manager just said if I withdraw from the competition, they’ll transfer her to a hospital in Sijiu City.”
Xie Yu frowned, “Why didn’t you say anything about this?”
Xu Xiyun opened his mouth, struggling to speak.
He always saw himself as a burden and didn’t dare to trouble others.
“I see,” Si Fuqing’s tone softened slightly, her fox-like eyes curving again, “Which hospital is your grandmother in?”
Xu Xiyun was taken aback, “I... I had her transferred here when I came to train. She’s in the First Affiliated Hospital.”
Si Fuqing nodded, “Alright, I’ll step out for a while. Continue your training.” Before Xu Xiyun could respond, she had already left.
“What about your parents?” Xie Yu asked, concerned. “Why are you the only one taking care of her?”
“I’m an orphan,” Xu Xiyun said, his voice tinged with sadness. “My grandmother found me when she was picking up trash. If it weren’t for her, I would have starved to death on the streets.”
He hesitated before adding, “Actually, transferring her to Sijiu City wouldn’t help much. I know her condition; it’s tough, and even the doctors are at a loss. They’re just keeping her alive with medication.”
“There’s always a way,” Xie Yu replied nonchalantly, “Even if modern medicine fails, there are other methods.”
Xu Xiyun looked confused, “Like... spiritual healing?”
Xie Yu paused, “You catch on fast. Focus on training for now.”
News of Xu Xiyun being forced to withdraw spread throughout the training camp.
Several trainees came to see what was happening, including Lu Yan, who squinted his eyes thoughtfully.
What a pity.
If only it had been Xie Yu who was forced to withdraw.
But with Xie Yu’s top ranking, his withdrawal would have caused a backlash among fans.
Still, Xu Xiyun’s withdrawal wasn’t a bad thing for Lu Yan. It relieved some of his frustration.
“Xiyun, if you had signed with our Tianle Media, you wouldn’t be facing this situation,” Lu Yan sighed pretentiously. “In the entertainment industry, without backing, even talent is useless.”
Xu Xiyun was about to roll up his sleeves when a slender hand pressed down on his shoulder.
Xie Yu raised an eyebrow, “Forgot to ask, how’s your family doing?”
Lu Yan frowned, “What do you mean?”
“Just curious if your family is really as influential in East State as you claim,” Xie Yu smiled.
Lu Yan had a bad feeling, “Xie Yu, stop with the sarcasm. Even if my family isn’t the strongest in East State, it’s still better than your commoner background.”
Si Fuqing had inadvertently made things worse.
What was she thinking?
At the First Affiliated Hospital, Room 309.
A nurse had just finished checking the blood pressure of the elderly woman in the bed, “The patient’s condition is stable today, everything’s normal.” As she was leaving, two men in black barged into the room.
“What are you doing?!” the nurse exclaimed. “The patient just had an injection and needs rest! You’re not family, what do you want?!”
She remembered Xu Xiyun.
A spirited young man.
He had always been attentive to his grandmother.
Who were these people?
Could it be that Xu Xiyun had gotten into trouble with some underworld figures?
“It’s none of your business,” a cold voice from the assistant followed, “We have orders from the company. She can’t stay here anymore.”
“What company?” the nurse stepped back in fear, “Stop it, I’m calling the police!”
“I advise you not to,” the assistant frowned, “If you can’t afford the bills, you have to leave the hospital. Don’t worry about her, just get her out.”
The two men pushed the bed out of the room.
But they didn’t make it to the elevator.
As the elevator doors opened, a girl in a hat stepped in.
Blocking their way.
Si Fuqing, with one hand in her pocket and her eyelashes lowered, simply said,
“Shang Lu.”
Shang Lu immediately sprang forward, “Here!”
“Throw them out.”
“Got it!”
The two men, who only went through basic trainings, were no match for Shang Lu, who easily picked them up and tossed them out.
The nurse was stunned.
“Who are you?” the assistant asked, alarmed, “What do you want to do?” Xu Xiyun only had his grandmother as family, with no significant background.
The CEO hadn’t mentioned anyone else being here!
“Sorry for the interruption,” Si Fuqing leaned slightly, “The patient in room 309 is being transferred for surgery.”
She placed a business card and a bank card on the glass counter..
