Chapter 341: Chapter 341: Hiding Dirt – Part 1

Zhou Xian quickly returned after paying the fees, and the two headed to the intensive care unit together.

Xu Fan noticed that as soon as Zhou Xian entered the hospital, he became worried and seemed to carry a great burden on his mind.

Could it be that the money I lent him wasn’t enough? He could definitely borrow more, so what’s there to feel embarrassed about?

It seemed that money alone couldn’t solve everything; if I wasn’t mistaken, his sister’s condition must be more serious than imagined.

Through the glass window of the intensive care unit, Xu Fan saw the girl quietly lying on the bed, her pale face and lips tinged with purple, occasionally letting out a faint moan of pain.

It seemed that the long-term torment of illness was so severe that she could feel the pain even in her sleep.

Zhou Xian, seeing his sister’s condition stable, couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. His eyes, reddened, were filled with tenderness as he whispered softly, “Xiao Fu, you must hold on. I have money now, and in a few days, I’ll arrange for your surgery. Trust in me, I’ll make sure you recover completely.”

“So her name is Zhou Xiaofu.”

Xu Fan thought silently; indeed, both her name and person were beautiful.

Unfortunately, fate had not been kind to her, allowing her to face the most terrifying thing in the world at the prime of her life. Thankfully, Zhou Xian had appeared in time, and had been there to care for her all along.

His thoughts were scattered. If he found himself in such a situation, he would probably also not hesitate to kill all those villains, grinding their bones and scattering their ashes, so they’d never enter the cycle of reincarnation again.

“You seem restless. Could it be that her chance of recovery is not great?” Xu Fan suddenly asked in a low voice.

Zhou Xian nodded, his expression filled with sorrow, “Those damn bastards created an extremely unhygienic surgical environment, causing her to contract multiple infections, which accelerated her kidney failure. The frequent dialysis over the past two years has been draining Xiao Fu’s life force. Now her condition is getting worse, and even if she undergoes a kidney transplant, the success rate is less than 50 percent. Moreover, we haven’t found a suitable kidney donor yet, so for now, we can only wait. I’m afraid she won’t last until it’s time for the surgery.”

“Isn’t your kidney a match?” Xu Fan asked instinctively.

As siblings, the match rate should be much higher.

The middle-aged doctor was taken aback for a moment, then his expression cleared, and he waved Zhou Xian over to talk on the side.

Zhou Xian thought about it and still followed.

However, Xu Fan, releasing his Divine Sense, easily overheard the conversation between the two men.

“Zhou Xian, I have some important information for you. If you have gathered enough for the surgery and medication, I will tell you,” the doctor said.

“Dr. Lu, I really have gathered enough,” Zhou Xian frowned, but he was honest, wanting to know what Dr. Lu was hinting at.

Dr. Lu looked around, then whispered, “You know, even with the money, it’s a long wait, as finding a suitable kidney donor is not easy. Now, I’ve found a suitable kidney donor, but your sister is further down the waiting list. If you have the money, I can consider meeting your needs first.”

“However, you understand, such matters cannot be made public, as I would face severe punishment if discovered. So, it all depends on whether you can pay enough to make it worth my risk,” he continued.

Dr. Lu smiled, his face bearing a sleazy expression, rubbing his thumb against his forefinger and middle finger, his intentions crystal clear.

Zhou Xian looked at the man with disgust, having already held a strong dislike for him, and now he saw there was no misunderstanding.

Xu Fan also came to a realization, observing the blatant change in the man’s attitude.

He couldn’t help but reflect, thinking that while hospitals serve to save lives and alleviate suffering, they also harbor corruption and dark human nature.

Dr. Lu didn’t care about Zhou Xian’s attitude towards him and continued to speak earnestly, “Zhou Xian, let’s focus on the issue, not the emotions. Your sister’s condition is deteriorating, and the frequent dialysis has placed a great burden on her. Even if I can endure it, as a family member, can you?”

Looking at his pitiful demeanor, which seemed sincere, was actually hiding an ugly human nature.

“Dr. Lu, what do you think the success rate of the kidney transplant is?” Zhou Xian, suppressing his disgust, asked through gritted teeth.

Dr. Lu felt a surge of joy inside, humph, can this kid even refuse me? he thought.

Things would go as they should, and even if there were frustrations, they had to be contained.
