After Shen Shanshan finished her grocery shopping, she still went to a shop selling mobile phones near the supermarket.
“Hello boss, may I ask, the phones you have here, which one has better performance?”
“Performance, ah, these are good ones, with a lot of memory, and they play games especially smoothly, but it’s just that the price can be a bit expensive.”
The boss took a few models out from the counter.
However, after looking at the girl, he judged that she should still be a student, so he kindly reminded her.
However, when Shen Shanshan heard that the game would be smooth, she didn’t care that much anymore.
“Okay then, boss, take this one. By the way, there’s the phone number, can I use the original one back? But my SIM card is broken.”
“Yes, just take the ID card.” Again, the boss was quick to reply.
ID card?
But this phone wasn’t bought for her, and if she went back to get that guy to come over, he definitely wouldn’t want it.
Shen Shanshan struggled for a while, but in the end, she took out her ID card and after retrieving the phone number as well, she paid for it and only then took it back home with her.
“Tianhao, you’re back?”
Just back at the flat, she unexpectedly bumped into her brother, God Tianhao, who had come back from the capital.
“How was it? Is Mum okay?” She was so excited that she ran over and immediately asked.
However, Shen Tianhao looked a little tired and his whole mood looked even more downbeat.
“Sister, mum is not too optimistic, I heard from the third aunt that she had been bleeding in her stool before, but did not go for a check-up, this time when I went back, I managed to coax her to go for a check-up, and the result …… doctor said …… ”
“Said what?”
Shen Shanshan immediately tightened her grip on him.
She couldn’t let anything else happen to her family, their siblings had already lost their father and couldn’t be without their mother again.
But the next second, this brother shot her straight to hell.
“It says it’s rectal cancer, sis, is mum dying too?” The big boy, a little over five metres, stood in front of his sister and cried after finally getting the words out.
Shen Shanshan’s mind went empty.
She stumbled, and the things she was carrying in her hands no longer had the strength to hold on to them, and they all fell to the ground with a “pop”.
“Sister ……”
“No! I’m going to go back right now, you take the things up, I’ll take mum to the hospital.”
Then, the girl, who was only twenty-one, didn’t even go upstairs, merely grabbing a mobile phone, she left the city and rushed back to the capital in a heartbeat.
In their family, it was indeed God Shanshan who usually took the decisions.
Although Shen Tianhao was a boy, the family had doted on him since childhood, and since Shen Rong had died and her mother, Zhou Xiuying, was a person with little initiative, it had become the girl who made decisions on all the big and small matters in the family.
Quite like she was also carrying the load.
In the flat, Huo Yin did not go back to his bedroom, he moved his laptop out to work.
However, he hadn’t expected to wait for over an hour for the person he wanted to see, but instead he saw God Tianhao, who had gone back for days, suddenly appear.
“Why are you back?”
“Well, I came to tell my sister that my mother is ill, very seriously, and my sister has left.”
God Tianhao was full of frustration as he put the things in his hands on the dining table and walked to the kitchen fridge to get a bottle of water right there.
Huo Yin froze.
Perhaps it was so sudden that he sat there for several seconds without reacting.
“Your sister went back? Just go back?”
“Yeah, I just ran into her downstairs, I told her about my mum, and she left. By the way, she said this phone was bought for you, why did you change your phone again?”
The heartless Shen Tianhao, after leaving the family matters to his sister, actually focused on this mobile phone at once.
Huo Yin: “……”
Just for a moment, he grabbed the phone on the table and then chased after it.
God Tianhao was left looking at his back, with a completely baffled expression.
What was he doing?
–.
Airport.
Shen Shanshan had already arrived here, but when she was about to purchase her ticket, she realised that the wallet in her phone was not enough to pay for a single ticket.
“Sister, please, can you give me a discount? I’m a student.”
She begged the ticket agent’s sister at the airport.
However, after giving her a look, this ticket agent just came up with a routine, “Students need student IDs, bring your student ID.”
Shen Shanshan: “……”
Student ID?
She didn’t even go home before she came out, how could she have a student ID card? It was a good thing that she had her ID card with her because she wanted to buy a mobile phone.
Shen Shanshan was so anxious that she was on the verge of tears.
“Sister, I came out in a hurry and didn’t bring it with me, I’m really a student, don’t believe me, take my ID card and check, I beg you, just give me a discount, my mother is sick and I need to rush back immediately.”
She begged bitterly.
However, this airport staff was simply indifferent.
“How can I possibly give you a check? If every traveller is like this, is there any need for me to do my job? You’d better go and find your own papers first, next.”
“……”
With that one sentence, all of the girl’s hopes were dashed.
Shen Shanshan squeezed her phone tightly, while her eyes filled with tears, she looked at this ticket window three times a step back, just don’t mention how heartbreaking it was.
“Little girl, are you short of money to buy a ticket? Let me tell you, if you do me a favour, I can give you money.”
All of a sudden, a man dressed in a very smart outfit appeared right in front of her and asked her with great concern if she needed any help.
Shen Shanshan looked at him ……
