Lin Nan suddenly stood up, and the three of them looked at a young nurse who came out of the emergency room.
"Do any of you have a family member who is a patient here?" The young nurse scanned the three of them. At this moment, Du Qiuyue stepped forward and said, "I am the patient's teacher. You can tell me what you need to say."
"Okay, then." The young nurse nodded. "The patient's condition is very critical and requires a large blood transfusion. However, according to our hospital's regulations, we must receive payment before performing a blood transfusion. So... who will go and pay first?"
"How much do we need to pay?" Du Qiuyue asked while taking out her wallet. But the young nurse's next words left her stunned: "Well... you need to pay five thousand yuan first. Any extra can be used for hospitalization fees."
"Five thousand!" Su Bing exclaimed, and Du Qiuyue's face also changed, but she quickly looked at the young nurse and asked, "Can we pay by card?"
"Um... I don't think so." The young nurse shook her head hesitantly. "But there's a Bank of China right across the street. If you have a Bank of China card, you can go there to withdraw money."
"That's great, I have a Bank of China card." Du Qiuyue said, taking out the only eight hundred yuan she had in her bag and handing it to the young nurse. "Please start the treatment first. I'll go and withdraw the money right away."
"Okay." The young nurse took the money and hurriedly turned to go back into the emergency room.
"You two stay here. I'll go and withdraw the money and be right back." Du Qiuyue said, putting her wallet away and running out of the hall.
Watching Du Qiuyue leave, Su Bing blinked her big, watery eyes and looked at Lin Nan curiously. "Lin Nan, tell me the truth, do you like Tong Xiaoya?"
"Well... maybe." Lin Nan glanced at her and sighed helplessly.
"Tsk, how can there be a 'maybe' in this kind of thing? If you like her, you like her." Su Bing rolled her eyes and pouted. "But it is quite strange. We didn't see Xiaoya get hurt. Why did the nurse say she lost too much blood and needs a transfusion?"
"I find it strange too." Lin Nan frowned. "Logically, even if Xiaoya donated blood, there are strict regulations for voluntary blood donation. They would never endanger the donor's safety."
"Ah, let's wait for the doctor to come out and ask." Su Bing shook her head and stopped thinking about it.
Soon, Du Qiuyue ran back, took out a stack of money from her sleeve, and handed it to Su Bing. "Su Bing, can you go to the fourth floor and pay the bill for me? I'm too tired to climb the stairs."
"Sure, no problem." Su Bing took the money and ran toward the corner.
A moment later, Su Bing came down from the upper floor, returned to the emergency room, and handed a stack of receipts to Du Qiuyue. "Teacher Du, here's the receipt. Please keep it."
"Okay." Du Qiuyue took the receipt, folded it, and put it in her wallet.
At this moment, the door of the emergency room creaked open, and two doctors came out.
"How is she?" The three of them rushed over. One of the middle-aged female doctors looked at them and said, "The patient is now out of danger, but her body is extremely weak. She will need some time to recover."
"That's a relief." The three of them sighed in relief. Then Su Bing suddenly asked, "Doctor, what caused her to go into shock?"
"Fatigue and excessive blood loss. Yes... I checked, and there are obvious needle marks on the patient's arm. I think the patient likely sold blood within the last twenty-four hours."
"Sold blood!" The three of them were shocked. Then the other doctor said, "Well, the patient has now regained consciousness. You can ask her directly if you have any questions. And it's best to persuade her to stay in the hospital for observation for a few days."
"Okay, we'll try our best." Du Qiuyue nodded and then led the two of them into the emergency room.
"Teacher... Teacher Du." Tong Xiaoya looked at Du Qiuyue with a very weak voice. Du Qiuyue smiled slightly and said, "How are you feeling now?"
"Much better." Tong Xiaoya nodded slightly. "Thank you, Teacher Du."
"Don't thank me yet. You should thank Lin Nan first. He carried you to the hospital." Du Qiuyue said, pointing at Lin Nan.
"Ah?" Tong Xiaoya was surprised and then looked at Lin Nan, biting her lip. "Lin Nan, thank... thank you."
"It's nothing." Lin Nan shook his head indifferently. At this moment, Su Bing, standing beside her, suddenly interjected, "Xiaoya, you should not only thank Lin Nan but also Teacher Du. Your hospitalization fees were all paid by Teacher Du."
"Wh... what!" Tong Xiaoya looked at Du Qiuyue in shock, tightly biting her lip. "Teacher Du... how much did you pay?"
"Not much." Du Qiuyue shook her head slightly and straightened the edge of Tong Xiaoya's blanket. "Xiaoya, the doctor said I should persuade you to stay in the hospital for a few days. I think we should follow the doctor's advice."
"No... no need." Tong Xiaoya shook her head with all her strength, biting her lip. "I'm fine. I'll rest at home for a few days."
"Not fine, you scared the teacher to death!" Du Qiuyue looked at her and said firmly, "No, you must stay in the hospital for observation for a few days."
"Right, Teacher Du is right. Xiaoya, don't be stubborn." Su Bing also advised.
"No, I won't stay in the hospital." Tong Xiaoya shook her head forcefully and tried to get out of bed, which scared the three of them. They quickly helped her up.
"Don't be so stubborn. Teacher Du has already paid for your hospitalization for a few days. Don't let his kindness go to waste." Su Bing frowned and looked at her helplessly.
"Ah?" Tong Xiaoya was shocked again and looked at Du Qiuyue anxiously. "Teacher Du, how much did you spend?"
At this moment, Su Bing interjected, "Exactly five thousand eight hundred yuan. Teacher Du went to the bank to withdraw it."
"Ah!" Tong Xiaoya's chest heaved violently, and her face turned even paler.
"Don't get so worked up, Xiaoya." Du Qiuyue patted her back. "Don't worry about the money."
"Teacher Du, I... I will definitely pay you back." Tong Xiaoya said, biting her lip, and tears streamed down her face.
"Xiaoya, let's talk about paying back the money later. The most important thing now is to get you well." Du Qiuyue said, frowning and looking at her. "Tell me, did you sell blood?"
"I... yes." Tong Xiaoya lowered her head, like a child who had made a mistake.
"Foolish child, how could you do such a thing? It's very dangerous, do you know that!" Du Qiuyue scolded Tong Xiaoya.
"Sorry, Teacher Du." Tong Xiaoya fidgeted with her sleeve, looking down nervously.
"Ah, forget it." Du Qiuyue sighed. "I know you had no choice. Is there any difficulty at home?"
"No..." Tong Xiaoya said softly, looking up at Lin Nan and Su Bing uncomfortably.
"Alright, Teacher Du, don't ask anymore. Let's help Xiaoya to the ward first." Lin Nan noticed her discomfort and quickly added.
"Okay, that's fine. I'll go and handle the procedures. You two stay here for a moment." Du Qiuyue nodded and turned to leave the emergency room.
