DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 84 - The Price Is Too High!
Hearing this, those individuals couldn't help but feel delighted.
[How did it go so smoothly?]
Are they about to receive 300,000 yuan so easily?
These individuals appeared quite gullible!
Nevertheless, the ease with which they offered 300,000 yuan hinted at their substantial financial resources.
“Darling, how is your mother doing?”
The middle-aged man turned to his wife and inquired.
They were indeed a couple, and his wife promptly grasped his meaning.
“Her condition is deteriorating rapidly. I'm not sure how much longer she can hold on.”
While speaking, the woman feigned wiping away some tears.
“Did you hear that? My mom's health is deteriorating. I must tell you, 300,000 won't suffice. We need 500,000!”
“If you don't provide us with 500,000, we'll have Su Tao sent straight to prison. Su Tao committed murder; he'll face execution!”
The middle-aged man proclaimed loudly.
Su Ming smirked.
“Alright, no problem. I'll give you half a million yuan.”
Su Ming turned to President Chen, who nodded in agreement.
The middle-aged man was overjoyed when he realized he had achieved his goal.
His mother was unharmed, and he had earned 500,000 yuan.
He was now wealthy.
President Chen promptly transferred half a million into the man's account, and the man's demeanor shifted from fierce to all smiles.
“Old Su's son is truly resourceful. He readily produces 500,000 yuan!”
“Get lost!”
Su Ming scowled at them and yelled.
The middle-aged man snorted in disdain. However, having achieved his objective, he had no intention of arguing with Su Ming. He hummed a tune as he departed.
Observing their departure, Su Ming quickly pushed open the door and entered.
Su Tao lay on the bed, his face pale, and his eyes closed.
His right leg was wrapped in white bandages.
Su Ming promptly accessed the scanning system.
Su Tao had sustained injuries. His body's soft tissues displayed minor contusions, and his right leg was fractured.
Upon seeing the scan results, Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, his father's injuries weren't severe.
However, Su Ming's relief didn't imply he would let the culprits off the hook.
His father couldn't be assaulted without consequences.
“Mom.”
Su Ming turned to see Lee Sumei. He withdrew a thick stack of bills from his pocket and handed them to her. “Take this money for now. During this period, let Dad recuperate in the hospital. You should rest too. Leave this matter to me.”
“Just be careful and don't act recklessly,” Lee Sumei expressed her concerns to Su Ming.
She was still worried about him.
“Mom, don't worry.”
After Su Ming reassured her, he glanced at President Chen. President Chen nodded and followed Su Ming outside. As they reached the door, they encountered a middle-aged man with a stout build.
“Are you the patient's family?”
Fatty furrowed his brow slightly upon seeing Su Ming.
“Yes.” contemporary romance
Su Ming fixed his gaze on the man.
“I'm the deputy director of the hospital. The patient hasn't paid a single cent since admission. If you don't settle the bill, we'll have to discharge him,” the middle-aged Fatty declared.
“We'll make the payment right away,” Su Ming assured.
“Hurry up!”
After the impatient middle-aged Fatty delivered those words, he turned and walked away. Su Ming didn't say anything more. They took the elevator to the ground floor, where Su Ming paid 100,000 yuan for his father's hospitalization fees.
“Mr. Su, we can't just let this matter slide,” President Chen finally spoke up after holding it in for a while.
“Don't worry, President Chen. I won't allow this matter to end like this.”
Seeing that his father's condition had temporarily stabilized, Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief. He would have time to deal with the situation.
At that moment, Old Madam's son, Guo Jianguo, hurriedly brought his family to the bank.
He was delighted to discover that his bank balance had increased by 500,000 yuan.
The middle-aged woman next to him asked, “Did you ask him for less money?”
Guo Jianguo replied, “I thought it was sufficient.”
“I heard that everyone else received over a million or even two million yuan.”
“Old Su's son's friend must be quite wealthy. If he could easily offer 500,000 yuan, he must have substantial resources.”
Upon hearing this, Guo Jianguo began to think that it made sense.
Initially content with the 500,000 yuan, he now felt it might not be enough.
Guo Jianguo whispered something to his wife, who was easily enticed by the prospect of more money, and she proposed a dubious plan.
Guo Jianguo turned to his wife and asked, “What do you think?” f reewe bnovel
The middle-aged woman, blinded by the lure of money, considered the plan and whispered it to Guo Jianguo, who became incredibly excited upon hearing it.
However, he quickly recalled something and addressed his other family members, “You all should return and look after the old lady. Don't worry; I'll give you your share of the five hundred thousand.”
“Alright!”
These family members departed happily.
Guo Jianguo, on the other hand, didn't go back.
Instead, he headed to the hospital director's office.
Meanwhile, Su Ming completed the payment for his father's hospitalization fees downstairs and rented the entire ward. He then headed upstairs to allow his mother some rest.
President Chen had been assisting Su Ming in taking care of Su Tao.
Furthermore, Su Ming was aware of President Chen's support throughout this ordeal.
As evening descended, President Chen went out to buy a few meals and returned. For now, the situation had been temporarily resolved, and Lee Sumei's condition had improved.
It was nighttime.
President Chen returned with the meals. Despite the complications, things seemed to be settling down. Lee Sumei's condition had also improved.
They finished their meal, and Su Tao woke up.
“Son?”
Su Tao was taken aback when he saw Su Ming.
“You're back! Are you okay? They didn't trouble you, did they?” Su Tao and Lee Sumei immediately expressed their concern for Su Ming.
Su Ming reassured them, “Dad, I'm fine. It's all in the past. Don't worry.”
Smiling, Su Ming asked, “Dad, are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?”
Su Tao sighed, “I blame myself for dragging you into this. I originally wanted to do a good deed, but look what happened.”
“There are still good people in society,” Su Ming replied with a smile. “We just had the misfortune of encountering some bad ones.”
