“I’ll be there right away. ”
After Hanging Up, Guan Xi stopped her classes and ran to the side of the road to hail a taxi.
Half an hour later, the taxi stopped in front of the city hospital.
Guan Xi got out of the car and rushed to the hospital.
Little Grape’s surgery had been completed and she had just been transferred to the ICU.
“Xi Xi. ”
When Bai Xiaomi saw Guan Xi at the ICU entrance, her eyes were red as she greeted her. “little grape, little grape is seriously injured. Sob, SOB, what should we do? What should we do, Guan Xi? ”
Compared to Bai Xiaomi’s panic, Guan Xi appeared unusually calm at this moment.
“What happened? ” Guan Xi asked. Her voice seemed very calm, but it was a little shaky. “How did little grape get into a car accident? ”
“This morning… ”
Bai Xiaomi cried until she burped, unable to speak clearly.
Director Liu, who was at the side, sighed and briefly told Guan Xi what had happened.
It turned out that the orphanage had taken the children out to play on the street this morning. However, not long after they had left the orphanage, a car sped over at a very fast speed. The driver seemed to be drunk and was driving unsteadily. The director and Aunty who were leading the team pulled the children aside They even shouted for the car to stop, but the car did not stop. It directly hit little grape, who was stunned on the spot.
The car did not stop even after it hit someone. It drove away directly.
When director Liu said this, his voice became choked with sobs. “It’s all my fault. I did not protect little grape well. ”
As the director of the orphanage, Director Liu treated these children as if they were his own children.
Although they might have been abandoned by their parents, in her eyes, every child was the cutest little angel and deserved to be treated well.
Guan Xi also felt bad, but her priority was to remain calm.
Guan Xi asked quietly, “mother Liu, didn’t you see the face of the perpetrator? ”
“No. ”
“What about the license plate number? Did you remember it? ”
Director Liu thought carefully and shook his head. “when little grape was in trouble, we were all confused and didn’t pay attention. ”
Did they not know who the perpetrator was?
Guan Xi bit her lip and comforted director Liu. “Mother Liu, don’t blame yourself and don’t worry. Little grape will get better. ”
“Okay. ” Director Liu forced a smile on his wrinkled face.
As they were talking, a nurse came to urge Guan Xi and the others to pay. She told them to pay 100,000 yuan in advance at the toll booth, and the follow-up treatment would cost about 400,000 to 500,000 yuan.
The operation of the orphanage was welfare-based. Relying on donations from the society and a little welfare subsidy from the government, it was impossible to take out such a large sum of money in one go. Moreover, who knew how much money would be added in later.
Director Liu was so flustered that he didn’t know what to do. When he reached the toll booth.. He pleaded with the paying nurse, “Miss Nurse, we… we are children from an orphanage. We don’t have that much money on hand. We only have 30,000 yuan. Can we slowly pay the remaining 70,000 yuan? ”
The nurse at the toll booth had seen many patients who didn’t have money. She put on a fake smile and said, “If you don’t have money, you can stop taking medicine and leave the hospital. The hospital is not a welfare organization. If no one had money and wanted to stay in the hospital, the hospital would have closed down long ago. ”
“This… ” director Liu choked.
“Mother Liu, here’s 80,000 yuan. Take it and pay for little grape first. ” Guan Xi handed a card to the payment window and said to the nurse, “pay the fee. ”
“Xixi, how do you have so much money? ”
