childhood sweetheart to marry you

Chapter 24: Chapter 24

Grandma didn't answer Zhao Yifei's words directly, but asked very seriously: "Yifei, tell grandma, do you like Ruijie or not?"

"Grandma, what nonsense are you talking about, he is a boy, how could I like a boy!" Zhao Yifei snorted and stopped back.

Grandma stared at Zhao Yifei silently for a long time, and then slowly said: "Actually, Xu Ruijie is a very good boy, no matter it was his fault at the time, or you provoked him first, grandma will not blame you, grandma only has you as a grandson , grandma only wants you to be happy, safe and healthy, and whoever you will be with in the future, even if the other party is a man, grandma will bless you."

"Grandma, what nonsense are you talking about..." Zhao Yifei was so nervous and ashamed that he wanted to find a place to hide. Grandma must have seen everything. She, an old man, actually saw that kind of scene. How should he treat grandma in the future? Talk well in front of him, and be his grandson well?

"Yifei, listen to grandma, know how to cherish the person in front of you. Instead of finding someone you like, it is better to find someone who loves you. In terms of feelings, you may not fall in love at first sight, but you will definitely fall in love with each other for a long time. Maybe when you really grow up, You will understand what grandma said." The corners of grandma's wrinkled mouth pulled out a smile, which was so natural and kind, not at all inferior to the girls with bright smiles.

At least for now, Zhao Yifei thinks so.

"Grandma..." Zhao Yifei murmured, no matter whether he likes boys now or not, he has her grandma's words in his heart anyway.

Zhao Yuan was very weak because of the operation, so when the new year was approaching this year, he was still in the hospital, Zhao Yifei was taking care of him in front of the bed, and his grandparents were taking care of him at home.

Lying on the hospital bed, Zhao Yuan looked at Zhao Yifei who was seriously peeling apples with a fruit knife with his head down. Tomorrow will be New Year’s Eve, and his son has been staying in the hospital to take care of him since he came back, rubbing his body and massaging It was the urinal again, although his face was not good-looking and he was a little impatient, but he didn't complain at all. Seeing this, Zhao Yuan had to say with emotion: My son has really grown up!

"Yifei, Dad has hurt you..." Zhao Yuan, who didn't intend to cry, was choked up as soon as he opened his mouth, and the tears flowed down like a spring.

Hearing his father's strange voice, Zhao Yifei raised his head and found that his father was already in tears. His face was haggard and emaciated, and he looked like he was more than ten years old. Seeing it, he couldn't stop the pain in his heart. I don't want to cry, I don't know why, seeing Zhao Yuan crying, and thinking of some sad things, Zhao Yifei's eyes turned red, and he complained softly: "I'm so grown up, and I'm still crying, it's so ugly!"

Zhao Yuan knew that his son was hard-spoken and soft-hearted, so he didn't complain about his ugliness, so he burst into laughter suddenly: "Dad feels that having a son like you in this life is not in vain!"

"Stop talking, eat apples! Apples are highly nutritious!" Zhao Yifei got up and handed the apple to Zhao Yuan. Zhao Yuan took it and quickly took a big bite. I am eating delicacies from mountains and seas.

At this time, a nurse came in and called Zhao Yifei away.

When Zhao Yifei left the ward, the nurse said to him as he walked, "Are you the patient's son? The patient has been in the hospital for almost half a month. Please come and pay the medical expenses, hospitalization expenses, and other expenses..."

Zhao Yifei came to the cash register and took the medicine list handed over by the nurse. He didn't look at the prices of those medicines, but directly noticed that there was thirty-eight thousand six hundred and thirty-two on the price.

It was more than 3, and it was close to [-]. Zhao Yifei raised his head and asked the nurse in disbelief: "It's only been a few days, why did you spend so much money?" Does this hospital need money?

The nurse began to patiently explain to him: "Only for recuperation, various anti-inflammatory drugs, we all choose better drugs, and there are hospitalization fees. The rest of the list is written on it. You can read it yourself."

Zhao Yifei glanced absently and quickly, then raised his head and asked the nurse: "Then when will my dad be okay?"

"Well, you can't say for sure. You also know that the sequelae of the car accident are cerebral hemorrhage. If the radical treatment is not in place and the recurrence occurs, then it is a bottomless pit!" The nurse curled her lips helplessly.

After hearing this, Zhao Yifei fell silent. He only has a few thousand dollars on him now, and if he uses them up, he will be at the end of his rope. So his grandparents borrowed more than 1 yuan from relatives and friends, plus 3 yuan, and now they have more money. It was more than [-] yuan, which was already [-] yuan. For Zhao Yifei, whose family was not rich, [-] yuan was simply too huge for him to support alone.

In the end, Zhao Yifei had no choice but to call Xu Ruijie again.

"Yifei, is your dad feeling better?"

"No, the doctor said he still needs to be hospitalized, can you lend me some more money?" Zhao Yifei could only bite the bullet and ask. He thought that 5 yuan would be enough, but he didn't expect that the development of the matter was completely beyond his expectations. Guess, if he borrowed money from Xu Ruijie again this time, then he might make another request, right?

"How many?"

"Forty thousand." Zhao Yifei could only borrow more money. What made him curious was that this time Xu Ruijie asked so simply, did he seem to have forgotten the request he made last time?

"Okay, but you have to promise me one more condition."

Zhao Yifei was planning to rejoice, but Xu Ruijie still remembered.

"What conditions?" Certainly not better than last time.

"You promise me first."

"You talk first." The bad premonition in Zhao Yifei's heart became stronger and stronger, and he flinched a little.

"If you don't promise me, I won't borrow it."

Xu Ruijie's tone was very tough, as firm as if he would not be easily compromised by anyone or anything.

"Don't you tell me first, if I agree to you in advance, if you make excessive demands, then won't I fall into the trap you designed in advance?"

"Then what do you mean by asking too much?"

Zhao Yifei recalled, and finally replied to him: "It is the requirement of marriage."

"Then I said my condition is to let you marry me, will you not agree?"

"Ruijie, I don't know what's wrong with you. I think you must have a strange disease and need treatment. What I can't figure out is why you want to marry me so much?" Zhao Yifei walked back and forth in the corridor , Several female nurses in front of the bar looked in his direction from time to time, and then whispered to each other.

"That's all I said. If you don't agree, just pretend I didn't say it. You can figure it out."

Just as Zhao Yifei was about to speak, there was silence inside.

When did this Xu Ruijie become so indifferent?Is he angry?

marry!Marriage... Two words kept coming to Zhao Yifei's mind, how could he marry a man?This is something he would never think about in his life. If it was in the past, when someone put a knife on his neck, he would not compromise and marry a man.

But now, he has no choice, he has been cornered.

If you want to marry a man, if the other party is an outsider, he will directly refuse, but the other party is his childhood sweetheart, Xu Ruijie, but he is not too disgusted, and will think about it a little bit. Such an idea suddenly popped up, and he was startled. Are you sick?Although Xu Ruijie is not an outsider, isn't he also a man?

However, he immediately threw away that thought, and after thinking about it for a moment, he suddenly thought that Xu Ruijie's marriage was just his own idea, and if his family members disagreed, it would be useless.It's better to pretend to agree to him, go to his house to meet his parents during the Chinese New Year, and then make a long-term plan.

At present, the most important thing is to solve the hospitalization expenses of the father. If there is no money, how can you negotiate with the other party?

Zhao Yifei just didn't expect Xu Ruijie to become so insidious and cunning. His prestigious university was not in vain, and he didn't know what he learned.

Zhao Yifei dialed Xu Ruijie's number again: "Ruijie, I promise you."

"Really?"

Hearing Xu Ruijie's ecstatic tone, Zhao Yifei's heart trembled. He couldn't describe the feeling, but he felt that Xu Ruijie was so happy, and his heart became much more comfortable.

"You put the money into my card, and I will pay you back as soon as possible."

"We're married, and my money is your money, so we won't pay back what we're talking about."

Xu Ruijie's voice was still smiling, and Zhao Yifei said: "That's it—"

"Wait! Are you coming to my house tomorrow? Is the hospital where your father was hospitalized the same hospital where you were injured?"

"Yes, what's the matter? Are you coming to pick me up?" Zhao Yifei knew the meaning of Xu Ruijie's words without thinking.

"You know me best, why don't I come here today, anyway, the company is on holiday, I've gone home early, my home is in the city, very close to the hospital, you don't know?"

"Ah?" Zhao Yifei was surprised, that's right, he met Xu Ruijie in other places, it means that Xu Ruijie only works there, it doesn't mean that his home is also there, how could he forget this?

"I'll be right over, we'll meet soon!"

Zhao Yifei who put down his phone told the nurse to wait a while, but the nurse didn't say anything.

Zhao Yifei went back to the ward again, sitting beside Zhao Yuan's bed, with a troubled expression on his face, hesitant to speak.

Seeing Zhao Yifei like this, Zhao Yuan said: "Do you have to pay the fee?"

Zhao Yifei nodded, but still said nothing.

Zhao Yuan immediately sighed: "Our family has really lost a penny and owed a whole lot of debts, and I am in this state now, and the burden of the family falls on you alone, what should we do now? My relatives won’t borrow any more money, why don’t I leave the hospital tomorrow.”

"No! You are still not well, how can you be discharged from the hospital." Zhao Yifei suddenly raised his head to stop him, and he tentatively said, "Dad, in fact, there is a person who has been helping my family. Last time, the medical expenses of more than 5 yuan were lent to me by that person. Yes, it's just that when he borrowed the money this time, he put forward a condition that he would lend me the money if I agreed, and I had no choice but to agree to him. "

"Who is that person? What conditions did you agree to him?" Zhao Yuan was anxious, "Will you be allowed to do something illegal? Did you agree?"

"No..." Zhao Yifei didn't know what to say, he lowered his head again, blushing because of excessive nervousness, the content of the words made it difficult for him to say.

"Tell me..." Zhao Yuan didn't know whether he was moved by his son's actions or felt helpless.

"You also know that person, he said he wants to marry me." Zhao Yifei still didn't raise his head, he replied with a voice as soft as a mosquito.

"I know you?" Zhao Yuan became impatient, "Yifei, tell me who it is!"

"Yifei! Here I come!"

While the two were talking, Xu Ruijie came in with large and small bags of fruit.

Zhao Yuan raised his eyes and looked towards the door, and found that Xu Ruijie had come, and a smile appeared on his anxious face: "Ruijie, you are here."

"Uncle Zhao!" Xu Ruijie put the fruit on the table beside the bed, stood by the bed, and began to condolence, "Uncle, you look good, you should be almost recovered."

"Thank you for your kind words." Zhao Yuan's face brightened when he saw Xu Ruijie.

Zhao Yifei noticed his father's appearance, and he couldn't help but look at Xu Ruijie, and found that Xu Ruijie had grown taller and handsome than a few days ago. No matter in terms of his clothes or his own temperament, he looked like a tall, rich and handsome man.

"You sit!" Zhao Yifei was never polite to Xu Ruijie, and he would hardly give up his seat, but today, he became a lot more polite, and for the first time, he got up and gave Xu Ruijie the stool to sit on.

For some reason, in front of Xu Ruijie, because of the difference in family conditions and educational background, he was as small as a speck of dust, while Xu Ruijie was as wide as a grassland, the two were not in the same class at all!

The more he thought about it, Zhao Yifei became polite even if he didn't want to be polite.
