Guan Zhuting paused in her hand-wiping, her expression changing slightly as she exchanged a glance with Hua Ran, the mother and son feeling a heavy heart. Indeed, when the wall falls, everyone pushes, and no one can be relied upon. Luo Bi had always been the type to turn her back on people, and today’s engagement break-up had finally triggered her to investigate the family accounts.
"There are still more than five thousand interstellar coins," Guan Zhuting calmly reported the amount.
Luo Bi was shrewd and immediately saw through the mother and son's overthinking. She didn’t bother to explain, instead focusing on her father: "Father, how much private savings do you have? I remember you took out three hundred thousand not long ago. Is there more?"
Seeing her father hesitate, Luo Bi knew there was more, but she didn’t know how much. As her father was about to answer, she quickly interrupted: "Father, there should be more, right? Whether it’s for me or for something else, don’t hide a single interstellar coin. Tell me, how much? Don’t say you don’t have any; I know you do."
Luo Hang swallowed the "no" that was about to come out of his mouth. Being exposed by his own daughter, Luo Hang regretted telling her in the first place. This foolish child, she’s a real troublemaker.
Luo Hang didn’t feel that having a private stash was shameful. He glared at Luo Bi and said irritably, "More than five hundred thousand interstellar coins."
"So much?" Luo Bi was pleasantly surprised. This life’s father was better than the last. In her previous life, her father always took care of this and that, never leaving a way out for his own family, quite foolish.
Guan Zhuting lowered her eyes and didn’t speak. They were a blended family; she had a son, and Luo Hang had a daughter. Everyone has their own selfishness, and it was understandable for Luo Hang to have his own plans. She had also saved some interstellar coins for her son, but to extend his life, she had taken them out to buy spirit medicines.
Luo Bi turned to Hua Ran: "Brother, what about you? Convert the interstellar coins in your account and the valuables you have. How many interstellar coins do you estimate you have?"
Hua Ran’s expression was inscrutable, and he didn’t rush to answer, glancing at Luo Bi.
"Ai Bi," Luo Hang reminded, feeling that this investigation was a bit excessive. This child was causing trouble at the wrong time. With the family already in turmoil, her investigation could easily create rifts among family members.
Luo Bi gave her father an impatient look before explaining to Hua Ran: "I don’t mean anything by it. Your strong gene is severely damaged, and whether we can nurture it back to health is another matter. First, we need to save your life. I’m checking the accounts mainly to buy you a bottle of third-grade spirit medicine to save your life."
Guan Zhuting suddenly looked over, uncertainly asking, "You want to buy a life-saving spirit medicine for your brother?"
If, if... Luo Bi was telling the truth, then... perhaps her son could be saved. Luo Hang was the head of the family, and Luo Bi was his only daughter. If they were willing to sell their family assets, they could勉强 still buy a bottle of third-grade spirit medicine.
Luo Bi nodded: "I’m not very familiar with the prices of spirit medicines on the market. Brother, do you know how many interstellar coins a bottle of third-grade spirit medicine costs?"
Guan Zhuting, upon hearing the answer, felt a mix of surprise and anxiety, finding it hard to believe.
Hua Ran’s eyes were complex. He had experienced many ups and downs and had long seen through human nature, but Luo Bi’s actions were truly unexpected. Luo Hang might not mind the sacrifice for his mother, but Luo Bi had no such obligation, especially given that, according to his understanding, Luo Bi was overly cold and indifferent, caring only for her family and no one else. It was rare for her to consider him as family.
