211 Get Your Parents to Step In
“But…” Cui Li frowned. “She doesn’t want to.” She was almost arrested because of that wretched girl, and Renci Hospital was implicated too.
“I said you’re stupid, but you’re really stupid.” Zhu Dekun glared at his wife. “Since you have a favor to ask of her, you have to act like it. If you act all high and mighty, why should she help you? You even resorted to kidnapping. Do you think you’re dying too slowly?”
“I-”
“Do you know that you almost implicated the Zhu family because of your stupidity?” Zhu Dekun really looked down on Cui Li more and more. What rich young lady? She had the att.i.tude of a nouveau riche. If not for the Cui family’s financial support back then, he would not have married such an idiot.
Although Cui Li was not convinced, she did not dare to say anything. The Zhu family was a powerful family and the head of the family had been investigated because of this incident. Fortunately, he was fine. Otherwise, he would probably not be able to live well.
“Lili, you need your parents to step in. Their words carry more weight than yours. I believe that my parents-in-law won’t be willing to watch Ah Chen die just like that…” Zhu Dekun held Cui Li’s hand. “You said it yourself. He’s still so young. He’s only 16 years old.”
“But…” Cui Li was in a dilemma, but in the end, she nodded. “Alright, I’ll go back tomorrow.”
“Why tomorrow? Let’s go over now and have dinner with them. Then, we can mention it.” Zhu Dekun stood up. “I’ll send you there.”
“What about you?”
“It’s not appropriate for me to go over.” Zhu Dekun sighed. “You’re from the Cui family. If you cry, their hearts will soften.”
“Alright then.” Cui Li could only nod. “Jiaojiao…”
“She must be punished this time. Otherwise, she will definitely be lawless in the future.” Zhu Dekun had a headache when he heard his daughter’s name. “It’s all your fault.”
“Am I the only one who spoils her?” Cui Li frowned.
“Alright, lock her up for a few days. I’ll let her out.” Zhu Dekun waved his hand impatiently. “Otherwise, are you really willing to let her cut her own face?”
“But she hasn’t eaten for three days. I’m afraid…”
“I’ll talk to her later. Let’s go.”
At the Cui family.
Gu Meizhi was quite happy to see her youngest daughter return. “Have you eaten? We just started eating too.”
“No.” Cui Li sat down. “Where’s Peng?”
“There’s a banquet at the company.” Cui Zhanyi glanced at his youngest daughter. “Why are you back at this time?”
Cui Li’s eyes instantly turned red. Then, she suddenly stood up and knelt on the ground. “Dad, Mom, you have to save Ah Chen.”
“Get up and talk.” Gu Meizhi hurriedly went over and pulled Cui Li up. “What are you doing?”
“Have you found a kidney source? It’s alright, we’ll pay for it when the time comes,” Cui Zhanyi said.
“It’s not about money.” Cui Li sniffed. “It’s been so long, but there hasn’t been a suitable kidney source. But Ah Chen can’t wait any longer.”
“What can we do without a kidney source?” Gu Meizhi sighed.
“It can be transplanted between relatives.”
“Relatives? Then do you think your father and I are suitable? It doesn’t matter. If they are suitable, you can take them. We’re already so old anyway…”
“Enough.” Cui Zhanyi glanced at his wife. “I don’t think that’s what Li meant.” Then, he looked at his youngest daughter. “Did you find someone suitable for the transplant?”
