Liang Ran and Bi Wen entered the ward. When they saw the scrawny man on the bed who had obviously lost his vitality, the two of them could no longer control themselves and cried as they threw themselves at the bedside.

Liang Ran knelt on the cold floor of the hospital and cried so hard that she could hardly breathe.

“Dad, why can’t you wait for me? I promised to take back the Liang Corporation, and I’m almost successful.”

The man on the bed could not respond to her anymore.

The two of them cried unreservedly, and the doctors waiting outside the ward looked at each other, feeling a little sorry for them.

Soon, Miss Zeng called again, urging for the bills.

The leading doctor wanted to speak up for Liang Ran, but just as he spoke, the young lady interrupted him with a sneer.

“Do you think the hospital is doing charity? If you can’t stand it and feel sorry for her, then help her pay back the money, pack up and leave.”

The doctor was angry, but he had to apologize in a pleasant manner and promise that he would do what she had instructed immediately.

The phone was hung up, and the doctor took a deep breath, suppressing his sympathy and walking in with an expressionless face.

“Miss Liang, please pay the outstanding fees as soon as possible, or we won’t be able to help you issue the death certificate for your father.”

Without a death certificate, they wouldn’t even be able to send him to the funeral parlor.

Liang Ran still had tears on her face, but her eyes were sharp as she looked over.

“Did Zeng Lu also tell you to do this?”

The doctor did not say anything, which was equivalent to confirmation.

Liang Ran clenched her fist until her palm was bleeding. She managed to suppress her anger.

“Give me the bill.” The doctor handed her the bills.

Liang Ran looked through them one by one. Her father had been in a coma after the car accident and had to be admitted to the ICU from time to time. Naturally, the expenses were considerable.

The hospital used the most expensive drugs and equipment for her father, which was probably Zeng Lu’s doing, waiting to deal a fatal blow here.

The 20 million yuan she had just received from Ji Xuan had already been given to the debt collectors. She did not have that much money at the moment.

Bi Wen stood beside her and watched. She knew their family’s current situation.

“Ranran, why don’t we sell the house first?”

The house was their last asset. Liang Ran didn’t want to sell it. It was where she had lived since she was a child.

She secretly thought through the measures that could be taken and soon thought of someone.

It was a trend to spend money in advance now. Perhaps she could do it too.

“No need, Mom. I have a plan. You stay here with Dad, and I’ll make a phone call outside.”

She turned around and walked out.

Bi Wen looked at her thin shoulders and then at her bruised thighs. Tears gushed out of her eyes. She covered her mouth, muffling her cries in her palm.

When Ji Xuan received Liang Ran’s call, he was a little surprised. “Where did you get my number?”

Liang Ran’s voice was a little hoarse. She had cried too hard just now. “I asked Mr. Guan for it.”

Ji Xuan pursed his lips. “What do you want then?”

Liang Ran explained her intentions.

Ji Xuan frowned, “Advance payment for one month? Liang Ran, do you think I’m a fool?”

Liang Ran knew that the request was a bit difficult to fulfill, especially since Ji Xuan had already given her 20 million in the morning.

She lowered her voice. The sternness she had when she faced the doctors earlier was completely gone. Her tone sounded a little pitiful.

“Just consider it a loan from me. I really need it urgently.”

Liang Ran didn’t mention anything about her father.

Although she had already fallen, she still did not want to involve her family. It was already enough for her to fall. If she had to sacrifice her family even after giving away everything, she would rather not do it.

She didn’t expect Ji Xuan to agree in the end, but he did. He asked Guan Shen to contact Liang Ran and transferred 3 million yuan to the account she provided.

With the 3 million yuan, it was not a problem to pay off the bills. Liang Ran successfully took her father out of the hospital and prepared for his funeral.

After a busy morning, she finally arranged the memorial hall and called her relatives and friends to inform them of her father’s death.

However, no one came to offer their condolences for the entire afternoon.

Bi Wen looked at the empty memorial hall. Her face was full of despair.

“Your father loved to have fun before he passed away. He would often invite his friends to get together. But now…”

Bi Wen couldn’t continue, tears welling up as she looked at the smiling man in the photo on the table.

There were many people who would kick someone when they were down, and few who would lend a helping hand. Even those who had received help from the Liang family in the past didn’t dare to come and pay their respects, as they all knew that the Liangs had offended the Zeng family. Who would dare to associate with them at this time?

“Don’t worry, Mom. This place will be lively soon enough.”
