Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 97: Chapter 97: Battle for the Hospital Ward

As soon as the three of them walked out of the housekeeping center, Sister Zhou bowed deeply to Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao. If it weren’t inappropriate for the place, she even wanted to kneel and knock her head in gratitude to her two benefactors. Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao not only gave her a job but also gave her daughter the hope of continuing to live. How could she not be grateful?

"Sister Zhou, don’t do this. You’re making us feel embarrassed." Lin Mengyao helped her up and said.

"I’m just too emotional. You two are such good people and great benefactors to our family. If it wasn’t for you two, I really wouldn’t know what to do. I’m truly grateful to you and will work diligently in the future, never failing your trust in me." Sister Zhou said, wiping the tears from her face with a reddened nose.

"What illness does your daughter have?" Xu Ke, not fond of hearing others sobbing, quickly changed the topic when he saw her crying uncontrollably.

Sister Zhou was momentarily stunned by Xu Ke’s question, evidently not expecting him to ask such a thing, but she wiped her tears and answered, "Kidney failure. So far, we haven’t found a suitable kidney donor, so she can only stay in the hospital clinging to life. I don’t know what sins I committed in my past life to have all this suffering fall on my daughter in this life." Sister Zhou’s freshly wiped tears couldn’t help but fall again, and she cried even harder than before.

Lin Mengyao helplessly glanced at Xu Ke and asked, "The hospital bills must be quite a lot, right? Can you still afford them now? Do you need us to advance your salary a bit?"

Sister Zhou originally wanted to say no, but thinking about the new round of hospital bills soon due, her eyes showed a troubled expression, and her face flushed red, unsure of how to speak.

and simply handed Sister Zhou a card without waiting for her to speak, "There’s ten thousand yuan on here, the password is six zeros. It’s an advance on a month’s salary. Use it first to pay your child’s hospital bill, and the remaining two thousand for groceries. If it’s not enough, come to me." Xu Ke’s expression

an awkward tenderness and kindness in his words, raising her estimation of Xu Ke even higher. Sister Zhou’s hands shook as she held the card, overwhelmed by gratitude for Xu Ke, unsure of how to express it verbally. She could only bow repeatedly, tears streaming down,
