TVSFPAG -Chapter 110 The Future Looks Completely Dark

Song Yunfei spent a hefty sum to book an appointment with a specialist and took Song Dashan to see the doctor.

She brought along his previous test reports, but he still had to undergo new examinations.

After going through the process for nearly the entire morning, she finally received the new test results. She took a photo of them before handing them over to the doctor.

After reviewing them, the doctor frowned deeply. “Why are you only coming now?”

This single sentence immediately made the two people beside Song Dashan tense up.

Song Yunfei asked, “It… can be treated, right?”

The doctor replied, “It can be treated, but the treatment window is very tight, and the cost is high. If you agree, I’ll arrange hospitalization first.”

Just as Bai Yu had said, the doctor directly recommended admitting Song Dashan to the ICU.

Subsequent treatments—such as hemodialysis and anti-infection therapy—would need to continue for a week. If there was improvement, he could be transferred to a general ward. If not, he would have to remain in the ICU.

The ICU alone cost over a thousand per day, not including other miscellaneous expenses. Within a single day, they had already spent over ten thousand.

In order to prevent Song Dashan from worrying, Song Yunfei told him it only cost five hundred yuan per day.

Even at five hundred a day, Song Dashan almost insisted on packing up and leaving. Fortunately, Song Yunfei and Song’s mother persuaded him to stay, telling him that medical insurance would reimburse the costs.

It seemed that reimbursement was indeed possible, but whether Song Dashan’s insurance could be used here was still uncertain.

Song Yunfei specifically went to ask, and since they hadn’t left the province, it was reimbursable.

This made her breathe a huge sigh of relief—this would significantly reduce future expenses.

Song’s mother was still concerned about the unharvested grain at home. She said to Song Yunfei, “Yunfei, things here are more or less settled. Do you want to go back, or should I go back?”

This was already the fourth day since they arrived at the hospital. The treatment plan had been finalized, and Song Yunfei had handled all the necessary procedures and payments.

All that was left was hospitalization, which only required someone to stay and take care of him.

Song Yunfei wasn’t very willing to go back to harvest the grain, and she didn’t even know how to do it. But compared to staying here, she would rather go back and handle the harvest.

Song’s mother was already elderly, and Song Yunfei couldn’t bear the thought of her going back alone to do the work.

In the end, it was better left to her, the younger one.

Song Yunfei made a decisive choice. “I’ll go back and harvest.”

Song’s mother worried, “Can you manage by yourself?”

Song Yunfei smiled. “No problem. Didn’t I help with the harvest when I was younger? I can do it. If necessary, I can also ask villagers for help.”

Song’s mother sighed, clearly reluctant to spend that money.

Hiring someone for a day cost 150 yuan.

Song Yunfei said, “It’s okay, Mom. Dad’s condition is more important now. Take good care of him. Leave the home to me. I’ll come back after finishing the harvest and stay with you.”

Song’s mother nodded. “Alright. Just be careful at home. Remember to lock the door when you sleep at night.”

“I know, I know.”

Song Yunfei picked up her backpack, said goodbye to her mother, and left the hospital.

She took a bus to the station, transferred several times throughout the day, and only returned to the village when it was already dark.

There were no streetlights in the village, and walking along the road felt a bit frightening. She took out her keys and quickly walked toward her home.

But before she even got close, she vaguely saw two people crouching at the door.

Song Yunfei froze for a moment. Were they neighbors chatting?

At night, villagers didn’t have many forms of entertainment. After dinner, they either went out for a walk or visited others to chat.

For safety, Song Yunfei picked up a stone from the ground and hid it behind her back.

She turned on her phone’s flashlight and slowly approached the two people.

The light shone on them, and she gradually made out their faces.

At that moment, a chill ran from her spine straight to the top of her head. Terrified out of her wits, she turned and ran without hesitation, as if she had seen a ghost.

“Song Yunfei.”

She ignored the voice and ran toward the village entrance, her mind filled with one thought: it’s over—I’m done for.

It would have been one thing if Bai Yu appeared, but why was Chu Jinhan here too?

The moment she saw the two of them, she felt that her future was completely dark.

If she didn’t run now, was she waiting to die?

After running for a short while, she suddenly couldn’t run anymore.

Someone grabbed her backpack, stopping her in place.

In a desperate situation, Song Yunfei gave up struggling and stopped. She covered her face and slowly turned around.

“You’ve got the wrong person. I’m not Song Yunfei,” she said, forcing her voice into a more neutral tone in a last-ditch attempt to deny it.

Chu Jinhan stood in front of her, using his phone’s flashlight to scan her up and down.

Looking at the woman covering her face, he said in a deep voice, “Then who are you?”

“I… I’m Yang Cuihua.”

Bai Yu walked over as well, looking at her with amusement. “Yang Cuihua, we came all this way and have been waiting at your doorstep for two days. Aren’t you going to invite us in for a seat?”

Song Yunfei took a deep breath.

She lowered her hands from her face and looked at the two of them with a tearful expression. “How did you find me?”

Bai Yu examined her from head to toe and clicked his tongue. “Running that fast doesn’t look like someone with kidney failure.”

Song Yunfei paused, glancing between the two of them before suddenly realizing. “Wait… you didn’t think I had kidney failure, did you?”

Bai Yu shrugged.

Chu Jinhan’s previously serious expression relaxed. “It’s not you?”

“No, it’s—” Song Yunfei suddenly didn’t know how to explain.

She had never expected Chu Jinhan to find his way here.

She had clearly arranged everything—contacted Zhang Tao and Xiao Shuang in advance, and even bought a high-speed rail ticket. She thought it was foolproof.

Yet in just a few days, this man was already waiting at her doorstep?

Where exactly had things gone wrong?

A few minutes later.

The three of them sat in the main room. The two men sat across from her. Chu Jinhan sat upright on a wooden stool, while Bai Yu leaned back in a chair with his arms crossed, looking at her with a faint smile.

The old light bulb cast a dim yellow glow, making the two well-dressed men appear completely out of place in the shabby old house.

The dog, after sitting in the car for two days, was still dizzy and lying motionless at the door.

Outside, dense chirping of insects filled the night, unusually loud in the quiet darkness.

Song Yunfei rubbed her hands together, sitting with her knees close, head lowered, not daring to move.

In the end, Chu Jinhan spoke first. “What exactly is going on?”

“I…” Song Yunfei bit her lip. Although she knew she couldn’t hide it anymore, she still tried desperately to come up with an explanation.

After thinking for a long time, she seemed to lose all her strength, her shoulders slumping. “I’m sorry… I came back to take my dad for treatment.”

Since they had already found her here, they must have inquired around. Any excuse would be useless.

Chu Jinhan frowned slightly. “Your dad? Didn’t you grow up in an orphanage?”
