If the confession fails, then pursue her best friend

For Li Yuan, buying a house was a trivial matter.

Recently, "Cha Yan Yue Se" has begun to expand rapidly and has started to purchase new stores in major cities. The funds mobilized here are in the billions.

In addition to shops, there are also factories in the imperial capital and Shenzhen and Guangzhou areas, which can be said to be fully deployed with huge investment.

According to his and Qi Siyu's estimation, if "Cha Yan Yue Se" can really develop as desired, it will definitely become a giant milk tea company this year.

Not to mention anything else, the value of those shops alone is inestimable.

This is also Li Yuan’s real estate investment plan. In China’s major core cities, the value of shops is unquestionable. Even if they do not appreciate in value, there will be no problem in maintaining capital.

What's more, with China's rapid development in the next few years, isn't it possible that these shops will appreciate in value?

Buying a house is a casual thing for Li Yuan, but it is a big deal for Qi Siyu.

……

When Liang Jingjing heard that Li Yuan was going to buy a big house for Qi Siyu, she was stunned. Her eyes widened and she looked at Qi Siyu suspiciously with an expression of disbelief.

I thought to myself, could it be that my best friend dressed Li Yuan so comfortably last night that she wanted to give him another big house as a gift?

Isn't this too inhumane?
"Uh~uh~Siyu, what on earth is going on?"

"Aren't you pregnant? Why did Li Yuan suddenly want to change your house?"

Qi Siyu also shook her head, looking confused, "I don't know either. Li Yuan proposed it himself."

"Tsk tsk, Li Yuan is so good to you, he is simply inhumane." Liang Jingjing's face was full of envy.

You know, before the New Year, Li Yuan bought this house in full and gave it to Qi Siyu.

He also waved his hand and gave her a bank card with one million in cash. In total, he had spent more than two million on Qi Siyu...

Unexpectedly, just a few days after the Chinese New Year, Li Yuan wanted to buy Qi Siyu a new big house.

What else could she say but that she was bursting with envy.

"Where's Li Yuan? Where did he go? How come he disappeared when I went out?"

"Is he coming with us to look at the house?"

Qi Siyu shook her head, feeling a little worried: "He wanted to go with me, but he suddenly received an urgent call just now and asked me to go by myself first..."

"I see he doesn't look well, I'm a little worried!"

Liang Jingjing smiled and said, "What's there to worry about? It must be a company matter. He is a big boss and has a lot of things to do."

Qi Siyu sighed, but the worry in her heart did not disappear.

She didn't understand many things about Li Yuan and was not deeply involved in them.

For example, she only knew the general situation of Li Yuan's companies, which she had seen from the Internet or heard from other people. She didn't know much more than Liang Jingjing beside her...

As far as she knew, Li Yuan's other girlfriends knew much more about Li Yuan's company.

Even deep into it.

For example, Xia Zhijin, according to what she heard, has been working in Li Yuan's technology company since September last year, and many employees are very familiar with Xia Zhijin.

Zhong Tingyue and Bai Weixi worked at "Cha Yan Yue Se" and also played an important role...

And what about yourself?

Li Yuan didn't tell her anything about the company, nor did he ever mention taking her to see the company.

She was shy and a little embarrassed to take the initiative to tell Li Yuan these things.

She also understood that her position in Li Yuan's heart was definitely much lower than Xia Zhijin and the others...

However, there is nothing that can be done about it, and she can understand that.

Now, as the relationship between the two develops, things are getting better and better...

She believed that as long as she worked hard, sooner or later, Li Yuan would be willing to take her to understand him, walk into his life, and they could walk together openly...

Liang Jingjing was very puzzled when she saw Qi Siyu looking sad and conflicted.

"I say, Qi Siyu, can you please stop looking so sad? This is a happy event, you should be happy."

"We are going to move to a luxury house soon. Many people can't even dream of having this. Come on, give your sister a smile."

"Haha, that's enough!" Qi Siyu forced out a perfunctory smile.

"Geese, you are too perfunctory."

"Siyu, do you want to go look at houses now? Hehe, did Li Yuan tell you which neighborhood to look at?"

"No, he told me to look around for any property I wanted, pre-sale properties, second-hand properties, whatever."

"If it's a pre-sale property, you may have to wait a year or two before you can move in. You can look at second-hand new properties that you can move into right away, or you can buy a second-hand rough-finished property, but you have to renovate it yourself..."

"I suggest you look at both and if you find a suitable one, just settle on it. You don't have to pay for it anyway."

"Hehe, to be honest, I've only seen those mansions online, and I've never heard of anyone owning one in real life... They cost tens of millions of dollars, and with our salaries, even if we don't eat or drink for a lifetime and work until we die, we still can't afford it..."

"Oh, Jingjing, you know so much!"

"Uh~ isn't this common sense?"

……

Li Yuan really encountered some trouble, and the call was from Bai Weixi.

Today is already the tenth day of the Lunar New Year.
The day before yesterday, Bai Weixi and her parents returned to the Magic City and settled down there.

Originally, Li Yuan wanted to accompany Qi Siyu to look at houses today.

But Bai Weixi called and said that her step-mother-in-law and father-in-law went to a big hospital for a comprehensive check-up yesterday, and the results came out today, and it seemed a little bad.

When Bai Weixi called, she was very emotional and almost looked like she was about to cry.

Li Yuan was so excited that he immediately cancelled Qi Siyu's request to accompany her to look at houses, and drove to the affiliated hospital...

"That's not right. Why didn't I hear in my previous life that Bai Weixi's parents were sick, or did she not tell me?"

While driving, Li Yuan was thinking about his past life.

In his mind, memories emerged again and again. Suddenly, a doubt made Li Yuan's heart suddenly startled.

He vaguely remembered that at the beginning of the second semester of his junior year, Bai Weixi seemed to take leave frequently and he hadn't seen her for a long time.

At that time, it was the last time that he confessed to her. Li Yuan clearly remembered how Bai Weixi responded to him that time.

[Li Yuan, I'm sorry. There are some things I don't know how to tell you, and I don't want to burden you. You deserve better, I'm sorry...]

Bai Weixi's answer at that time naturally made Li Yuan, who was already a little crazy and distorted at the time, very dissatisfied, and he walked away angrily.

For about half a month, he did not take the initiative to contact Bai Weixi, and Bai Weixi naturally did not contact him either.

When he didn't give up and went to look for Bai Weixi again, he saw the scene that made him despair, gave up, and completely gave up. He deleted everything about Bai Weixi...

From then on, the two of them were like strangers and never contacted each other again. Even after graduation, they never met again at the high school reunion...

"Why do I feel something is wrong?" Li Yuan muttered to himself, feeling a little panicked.

Could it be that there is some hidden story behind this?
He tried to recall everything about Bai Weixi during that period of time in his previous life, but he couldn't remember anything. It had been so long, so long that he could only remember some very familiar things.

Moreover, because he and Bai Weixi were not in the same school, they did not see each other often and did not chat often, so he was not aware of many things that happened to Bai Weixi...

"Forget it. If you can't figure it out, forget it. Let's go to the hospital and see what happened."

……

Li Yuan came downstairs panting, and quickly called Bai Weixi, asking anxiously:

"Xiaobai, where are you?"

There were a lot of noisy voices around Bai Weixi on the phone.

"Li Yuan, we are in the inpatient department. Where are you? I'll go downstairs to pick you up."

"Inpatient department?" Li Yuan's heart skipped a beat. Has the patient reached the point where he needs to be hospitalized?

If you are hospitalized in a tertiary hospital, generally speaking, you will need surgery.

What disease did my cheap mother-in-law have?

"I'm in the outpatient department now. Which floor of the inpatient department are you on? I'll be there right away."

Bai Weixi: "I'm in Ward 26 on the 56th floor of the inpatient department."

Li Yuan: "Yes, I'll be there soon."

Li Yuan hung up the phone and hurriedly trotted towards the inpatient department.

When he arrived at the elevator, Li Yuan looked at the floor display on the elevator wall and his heart trembled again.

"Oncology? My mother-in-law has a tumor?"

Li Yuan murmured to himself, his heart was greatly shaken and he felt a little panicked.

No matter what era, even in 2023 before rebirth, malignant tumors are terminal illnesses. Once they reach the middle or late stages, they cannot be cured at all.

"How advanced is it? What kind of tumor is it?"

Wearing a mask, Li Yuan squeezed into the elevator with a nervous heart and arrived at the 26th floor of the inpatient department.

As soon as I got out of the elevator, I saw Bai Weixi waiting at the elevator door. The moment she saw Li Yuan appear, she immediately rushed over with red eyes and hugged Li Yuan tightly...

"Brother, you are finally here. I am so scared, so scared!"

Li Yuan hugged Bai Weixi, patted her shoulder and comforted her:

"Don't be afraid, Xiaobai. I'm here."

Bai Weixi just hugged Li Yuan tightly, crying quietly. Her crying made Li Yuan feel a little scared, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Could it be that it is already in the middle or late stage?

This shouldn’t be the case. My mother-in-law Yang Jinyu is not even 50 years old. She can’t be that miserable, right?

If the cancer is in its early stages, it can be treated and there will basically be no sequelae.

But if it is in the middle or late stage and the cancer cells have already spread, then it will be a big problem. There is no possibility of cure at all, no matter how rich you are.

After Bai Weixi cried for a while, Li Yuan asked solemnly:

"Xiaobai, what's going on with Aunt Yang?"

Bai Weixi wiped her tears, looked at Li Yuan with red eyes, and told Li Yuan the details of the situation.

"My parents had a physical examination before the New Year, but the examination was not comprehensive. My mother felt unwell during the New Year. It happened that she was visiting my grandparents after the New Year, so she thought of coming to a large hospital in Shanghai for a check-up, and the problem was found."

Li Yuan frowned: "What's wrong with Auntie?"

Bai Weixi cried and said, "The doctor said it was a tumor, breast cancer, and I have to have surgery immediately."

Li Yuan's heart suddenly trembled, the worst thing happened.

"Breast cancer? How advanced is it?"

Bai Weixi: "The doctor said it seems to be early breast cancer. Fortunately, it was discovered early. As long as the surgery is successful, there is a high possibility of complete cure. If it was discovered a year or two later, it would be too late..."

Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. Breast cancer is not that bad in the early stages. If the surgery is successful, it can be completely cured.

If it spreads and reaches the middle or late stages, it will be the end of us.

Li Yuan comforted her, "It's fine in the early stages, Xiaobai, don't worry. The medical level in Magic City is so high, it's one of the best in the country. Auntie's illness can definitely be cured."

"But I'm still very worried." Bai Weixi's slightly pale and haggard face showed an expression of worry.

Li Yuan held Bai Weixi's hand and said seriously: "Xiaobai, believe me, I will definitely help Auntie find the best doctor in the world, and Auntie will be fine."

Bai Weixi stared at Li Yuan with red eyes and nodded: "Well, I believe you."

When they arrived at the ward, they saw Bai Tianqi and Yang Jinyu and his wife talking in a low voice.

Seeing Li Yuan coming in, he quickly stood up and greeted him.

"Xiao Yuan, you're here?"

"Didn't it delay your work?"

Li Yuan waved his hands quickly: "No, uncle, aunt, I'm late."

Bai Tianqi looked at the sweat on Li Yuan's forehead and knew that Li Yuan must be very anxious, so he explained the situation again.

After hearing this, Li Yuan understood what Bai Weixi said.

When a breast tumor first begins to worsen, it is in the early stage of the disease. As long as the surgery is done properly, it can be 100% cured.

Therefore, this situation was not kept from Yang Jinyu, and it was impossible to keep it from her.

Originally, it was Yang Jinyu herself who proposed to come to Shanghai for a comprehensive checkup. She felt unwell, and nothing could be found in her hometown...

"Uncle, aunt, have you found a doctor? When will the surgery be performed?"

Bai Tianqi shook his head: "They haven't said anything yet, it should be in the next few days."

"By the way, Xiao Li, you are quite familiar with the Magic City. Can you find a doctor with more experience to perform the surgery on your aunt?"

Li Yuan naturally understood what Bai Tianqi meant. This is human nature and every patient would want to do it.

Yang Jinyu's illness is really nothing at this level.

If you don't ask for permission, this kind of disease will most likely be handed over to a general doctor, or even an intern in hospital to "practice"...

If you have "connections" in the hospital, you can find well-known experts and veteran doctors to perform the surgery, and the possibility of success will be much higher.

Unlike doctors in other professions, the older they get, the more popular they become and the more experience they have.

This is especially true for the surgeon in charge. The more experience he has, the possibility of accidents will be greatly reduced.

Li Yuan once again felt the importance of personal connections.

"Uncle, leave this matter to me."
