The Rise of a Special Forces Soldier Abandoned by a Wealthy Family

Haining is the capital city of Haining Province.

The wide roads were bustling with traffic, and pedestrians crisscrossed the sidewalks, hurrying by.

You don't know my haste, and I don't understand your hardships.

In the steel jungle of the city, everyone is busy making a living, and no one has time to stop.

However, at this moment, a very heartwarming scene appeared on the sidewalk!

The warmth was so comforting that even the hurried crowds had to slow down, afraid of disturbing them.

A family of three sat quietly on the stone-paved road, eating their meal.

The sidewalk might be cleaner than their house, but the family of three didn't mind the dirt at all.

They were gathered around four takeout containers—

Three of the takeout boxes contained white rice, but only one contained a side dish!

The dish was a pitifully small stir-fried cucumber with pork, a fast food meal costing twelve yuan. This was their family's lunch.

My father was pale, and at forty years old, his hair was almost entirely white.

The clothes on his body were clean, but the faded and washed-out color revealed the marks of a very long time.

After a violent cough, he managed to eat a bite of food with difficulty. Then, with trembling chopsticks, he picked up the few remaining slices of meat from the lunchbox and handed them to his sixteen-year-old daughter.

Like a frightened kitten, the daughter hurriedly moved the lunchbox away.

"Dad, I don't eat meat, I like cucumbers." After saying that, she smiled at her father and began to shovel white rice into her mouth.

The father's chopsticks froze in mid-air. He stared at the white contents of his daughter's lunchbox, at his daughter wearing his wife's loose, patched clothes!

He frantically covered his eyes with his left hand, his fingers digging into his cheekbones and flesh.

He suppressed his inner pain and his violently trembling body, roughly wiping his face with his left hand. His palm was wet with tears, but his face wore a smile. Then he handed the shredded meat on his chopsticks to his wife.

His wife looked up, wiped her eyes, and smiled as well.

"Honey, you're very weak right now, eat more meat. Once you're better, Xiaofeng and I will enjoy everything we eat."

The father gave a bitter smile and sighed heavily, "My illness has caused you all so much suffering. Maybe we should just give up on treatment."

He looked at his daughter: "Xiaofeng's grades were always the best in the whole school, but now she can't even go to school."

The father bit his lip until it bled, shook his head desperately, and choked out four words: "I... won't... get... treatment."

"Cough cough cough—" The father started coughing violently again because of his excitement.

Just as Xiaofeng was about to give her father a back massage, her phone rang in her pocket.

She quickly pulled out her old, cracked cell phone, pressed the answer button, and put it to her ear.

Then, her resolute gaze finally broke down—crystal tears dripped onto the glistening white rice.

Her voice, filled with sobs, kept repeating, "Thank you, thank you, thank you so much."

Then, Xiaofeng threw the rice box away, turned around abruptly, knelt down and kowtowed to the building in front of her.

There was a red cross on the building, with the inscription: Longyu Puhui Hospital.

After kowtowing, Xiaofeng quickly stood up, hugged her mother tightly, and cried out:

"Mom! Dad's saved! Our family's saved! We passed!"

"Really...really? It passed so quickly?" The mother pushed her daughter away, her eyes filled with hope and tears, her tone filled with disbelief.

Xiao Feng nodded, tears streaming down her face, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Longyu Group just called and told us to complete the hospitalization procedures immediately, as a bed has already been arranged."

"We don't need to pay any medical expenses; all we need is Dad's ID card to be admitted to the hospital."

Fifteen minutes later, the family of three completed the admission procedures and arrived at the inpatient department's nurses' station.

A nurse looked kindly at the family of three, noticing their large bags and pots and pans.

She sighed, knowing that this was yet another pitiful and helpless family.

She shook her head, with a smile:

"You don't need to bring your pots and pans to the ward; put them in the storage room."

"Our Longyu Puhui Hospital offers free meals, limited to three people. I see you're a family, right? Then three people should be enough."

"In addition, our hospital also provides free accommodation, which is a dormitory with ten people per room and two spots available, so that's just enough for you."

"Therefore, at our inclusive hospital, as long as you meet the requirements, treatment, food, and accommodation are all free."

"Thank you, thank you..." The mother pulled her daughter and was about to kneel down when the nurse quickly helped her up.

Her voice choked slightly as she addressed the mother and daughter:

"Auntie, you don't need to do this, it's what we should do."

"Remember the essence of Long Yu's sixteen-character motto:"

"Revitalization is our responsibility, the people's hope, and the Longyu brand will forge ahead without hesitation."

"Yes!" Xiao Feng nodded vigorously. "Nurse, I will definitely remember."

Remember Long Yu's spirit, remember that I am a citizen of the Dragon Kingdom.

The nurse gently touched Xiaofeng's right cheek—a pale and emaciated face. She smiled again:

"The little girl should still be in school, right? She can't drop out!"

"Longyu Hope School is open to children from families receiving medical treatment here. They meet the requirements and can enroll directly."

"Come pick up your application materials from me when you're done with your work."

The father finally couldn't hold back anymore, squatted down, covered his face with his hands, and cried silently.

The family of three arrived at the ward, and the patients in the ward immediately came forward to help.

They all came from poor families, and were simple and kind.

A middle-aged woman took her mother's large bag:

"Young lady, don't be shy since you're new here. We all come from poor backgrounds and have only kind hearts."

The only thing we need to learn from being kind here is the mutual help and support required by Universal Healthcare.

"Thank you, thank you, elder sister." All the mother could say now was thank you.

An aged voice rang out:

"If we're going to say thank you, we should thank Longyu Group. They really go the extra mile for us poor people."

An elderly patient took the bag from Xiaofeng's back as he spoke:

"Little girl, you don't need to stay here. My eldest grandson has been enrolled in Longyu Hope School. That school is great, several times better than the schools in our hometown."

He then looked at Xiaofeng's mother:

"You don't need to stay here with us. We patients are both patients and caregivers, so we can look after and help each other."

"Longyu Group is not far away. There is an industrial park with many factories there. You can work there as a general worker or do odd jobs during the day and go back to the hospital to take care of your husband at night."

"As long as they are family members of our patients, Longyu Factory will provide training before direct recruitment, and the salary is much higher than outside."

At this moment, Xiaofeng's father smiled, her mother smiled, and Xiaofeng smiled even more happily.

That was a smile that came from seeing hope.

Long Yu wasn't just saving one patient; he was saving a family!

A family filled with hope amidst despair and helplessness.

It is also a warm light, illuminating every darkness, every helpless family, and every desperate heart.
