Chapter 168, The Effect of the Medicine
"Fragrant!" Zhang Heizi nodded, took a deep breath through his nose, and forcefully held back his tears. He couldn’t stomach anything at the moment.
He turned to look at the porcelain bottle Liu Caixia had just placed on the table, "What’s inside that?"
"It’s medicine. A little girl on the train gave it to me. She said her grandfather was a doctor. I think she was just trying to sell the medicine, so I have no clue what’s actually inside. Take a bite of this scallion pancake," Liu Caixia said, offering the scallion pancake to Zhang Heizi’s mouth. She planned to have her husband eat the pancake before going to see the doctor to sign the surgery consent form. But would the money she brought this time be enough to cover the medical expenses?
Zhang Heizi shook his head, "I’m a bit thirsty."
"I’ll pour you some water," Liu Caixia placed the scallion pancake on a cabinet and picked up the thermos only to find that it was empty, "Where can I get more hot water?"
"Out of the ward and down to the end, there is a water room," Zhang Heizi said.
"Okay," Liu Caixia nodded, took the thermos, and walked out of the ward.
As she left the ward, Liu Caixia couldn’t hold back her tears any longer. Seeing Heizi like this, her heart ached as if it was being cut with a knife. She really wished she could take on the pain for Heizi.
