The only thing she regretted was that she didn’t see Jiang Nanshu get married and have children.
But as long as she was happy, this regret was nothing.
Tears welled up in her eyes, and she wiped them away with her hand.
“Xiao Ze, the medical expenses are too expensive. You still have to go to school. Your father’s leg was injured three years ago, and now he can’t do any heavy work. He has to raise pigs. It’s not easy to support this family. I told the doctor to give up treatment. You still have to go to college…”
“Have you asked me?” Ji Ze yelled.
“I would rather not go to school. I also want you to be well. I don’t want you to make plans for me. Think about it, are you okay? When my sister was at home, you saved money to buy her clothes, hairpins, and snacks she liked. You didn’t even change your own clothes for several years. Now you are sick, and you still want to save money for me to study. Can I concentrate on studying?”
Ji’s mother was frightened by Ji Ze.
This was the first time that her son, who has always had a good temper, got angry at her.
Her lips moved, and she lowered her head, her eyes moistened.
Jiang Nanshu glanced at Ji Ze calmly and said, “Xiao Ze.”
Ji Ze’s whole body was stiff.
In the past, when he had made Ji’s mother angry, Jiang Nanshu would make him obey with just a look.
He said in a muffled voice, “Mom, I’m sorry, I couldn’t control my temper.”
Ji’s father hesitated to speak and said in a muffled voice, “My dear, even if I lose everything, I will cure you.”
Ji’s mother shook her head, “It’s useless. This disease is terminal and cannot be cured. I have lived to this age, and it’s enough. Don’t insist on a disease that cannot be cured.”
Jiang Nanshu had a headache looking at this pessimistic family.
“The doctor said that as long as you find a suitable bone marrow, your disease can be cured. I came back this time because of you. I will pay for your treatment.”
Hearing Jiang Nanshu’s voice, the three people were stunned.
Ever since Jiang Nanshu returned to the Jiang family, what they wanted most was not to disturb her, for fear that the Jiang family would vent their anger on Jiang Nanshu because they didn’t like them.
“No—”
“Don’t rush to refuse.” Jiang Nanshu interrupted what Ji’s mother was about to say.
She originally wanted to use the money to sever the relationship with the Ji family so that they could use the money to treat the disease and get rid of their concern for her.
But now she thought again.
Ji’s mother was already seriously ill, and if she was provoked like this, wouldn’t she be angry to death in disguise?
She didn’t want to go through such a bad plot.
So, she said, “It is said that the grace of raising is greater than the grace of giving birth. You have raised me since I was born, so I have the obligation to take care of you. If you really die of illness, the spit of that circle in the capital will drown me. They will definitely call me ‘unfilial’ and ‘unrighteous’ for watching my adoptive mother died.”
“In more serious cases, Grandpa Lu will think that there is something wrong with my character and ask Brother Qingyan to break off the engagement with me.”
Jiang Nanshu paused, with a melancholy face.
“Mom, Brother Qingyan is my lifeblood. I can’t leave him! It’s better for me to die than to leave him! So, I will bear your medical expenses. You have to live well so that my reputation will be good. Please rest assured that I will not spend the Jiang family’s money to treat your illness.”
“I spent the Lu family’s money! Hehe, Grandpa Lu gave me 100 million. This speech of mine not only allowed my adoptive mother to treat her illness with peace of mind for my reputation, but also won a lot of favor from Lu Qingyan. He must be very touched.”
As she said, she turned her head and looked at Lu Qingyan affectionately.
Lu Qingyan looked at her with a half-smile.
Jiang Nanshu coughed lightly, making herself look serious: “I have also chosen the place for treatment. Let’s go to Hong Kong City.”
Lu Qingyan’s expression changed slightly: “No!”

The author has something to say:
Xiao Jiang: What’s in Hong Kong City?
Lu: …
