Hope Coffee House

Chapter 3: Doubts abound

Views:

Chen Wei could only borrow it from colleagues and classmates.

Because Chen Wei had already left the company, after receiving a call from Chen Wei to borrow money, his former colleagues either used the excuse that they had no money, or simply hung up the phone. No one lent Chen Wei a penny.

Among the classmates, only a few close friends lent money to Chen Wei, but their salaries were not as high as Chen Wei's, and they did not have much money. A few of them only lent Chen Wei less than 30,000 yuan, which was very expensive for the ICU. The cost of treatment is too little.

In desperation, Gao Qi proposed using credit cards to withdraw cash and take online loans.

There were many shady stories about online loans, and Chen Wei did not want Gao Qi to touch them. The two of them applied for a credit card to withdraw cash. Chen Wei's credit card had a larger limit, and a total of 80,000 was withdrawn from several cards. Gao Qi's credit card had a small limit, and he only took out 80,000 yuan. 30,000.

Chen Wei secretly chose some relatively reliable online loans and planned to borrow money in a few days when he ran out of money.

When the money withdrawn from the credit card was almost spent, Gao Qi's father passed away.

Although he was treated in the ICU for three full months with the best treatment plan and spent more than 900,000 yuan on treatment, the old man still passed away.

The night before the old man left, he seemed to have regained consciousness and sobered up a lot. He was still holding Chen Wei's hand tightly like every time he woke up before, with complicated eyes but unable to speak. After a while, the old man let out a long sigh, passed away.

The night the old man left, Gao Qi cried and fainted.

Chen Wei used his credit card to withdraw the remaining 30,000 yuan, took the old man's ashes back to his hometown from Shanghai, and arranged the funeral.

After returning to Jicheng, Gao Qi seemed to want to use work to numb the pain of losing his father. He often went on business trips or worked overtime until coming home very late.

Although Chen Wei spends more time at home, he is still very busy because he has to prepare a resume and look for a new job.

HR’s meaningful words did not show their power until this moment.

Old employees are a rare asset of the company. Old employees who are fired by the company will always make people think about whether their work experience and work ability are enough to be qualified for the next job.

In one month, Chen Wei interviewed three companies. Each time he reached the last interview, but he never received an offer.

Gao Qi came home later and later, always smelling of alcohol and exhaustion.

Chen Wei felt sorry for Gao Qi and knew that she was numbing herself with work and alcohol, so he didn't say anything more. He just made a glass of honey water for Gao Qi when he came back.

Every night, Gao Qi would lean into his arms, and the two would often talk about the future.

Where will they buy their future house, what style will it be decorated in, and what name will they give their baby in the future...

Everything was destroyed yesterday.

Yesterday at noon, Chen Wei was on his way to the interview when his mother suddenly called and told Chen Wei that his father was hospitalized and asked Chen Wei if he could send some money home.

Hearing that his father was ill and hospitalized, Chen Wei was so anxious that he quickly asked his mother what was wrong with his father.

But the mother just said vaguely that it was a minor problem, not serious, and it would be best to send tens of thousands of dollars first.

Under Chen Wei's questioning, the mother just revealed the truth: her father was diagnosed with liver cancer. The condition was very serious and required surgery to remove half of the liver, which cost 100,000 yuan for treatment.

But because all the money at home was given to Chen Wei two months ago, and now he can't get the cash for a while, he can only ask Chen Wei to think of a way to collect some money to tide over the current difficulty.

Chen Wei currently owes more than 80,000 yuan on his credit card with interest, and he also owes 30,000 yuan to a friend. Where can he get 100,000 yuan in cash immediately

In desperation, Chen Wei called Gao Qi and asked her to help find a solution.

After hearing about Chen Wei's father's situation, Gao Qi comforted Chen Wei in a warm voice, saying that he would go home immediately and take the valuable jewelry and bags at home to a pawn shop. Although he was in a hurry to get cash, the items would definitely be discounted, but he estimated that It can also be used as a lot of money, and I should be able to collect 100,000 yuan.

At the same time, Gao Qi advised Chen Wei to have a good interview first. After all, liver cancer surgery would not be performed immediately. Chen Wei's mother was taking care of him in the hospital. What his father lacked now was not a caregiver, but money.

After liver cancer surgery, future treatment costs will be high. Finding a job as soon as possible will also provide financial security.

After he goes home to pawn off his bags and jewelry, he will immediately call the money to Chen Wei's mother for emergency response, and then take a plane to Chen Wei's hometown of Bingcheng to accompany Chen Wei's mother. After Chen Wei's interview is over, he will rush over. Not too late either.

With such a thoughtful and heart-warming girlfriend, Gao Qi's anxious heart calmed down and he was ready to continue attending the interview.

Gao Qi is right. Only after he finds a job again and has a stable income can his father's treatment plan be guaranteed to be the best.

Under great pressure, Chen Wei became more focused and serious, and performed extremely well in the interview.

One side, two sides, three sides... In a whole afternoon, Chen Wei passed the test and reached the final round.

The company's CTO, Wang Yu, was in a meeting and couldn't find time for the interview until 8pm, so he had dinner with Chen Wei.

At the dinner table, Wang Yu and Chen Wei talked about work and life. After learning that Chen Wei was fired from the company for absenteeism in order to take care of his girlfriend's seriously ill father, he was even more moved by the deep love between the two.

Of course, Chen Wei did not tell Wang Yu that his father had liver cancer. With his mother taking care of his father and Gao Qi accompanying his mother in Bingcheng, Chen Wei was relieved.

Bingcheng is not far from Jizhou. It can be reached by plane in two hours. It is enough for me to visit my father every weekend.

After bidding farewell to Wang Yu, it was already half past nine at night. Chen Wei hurriedly took a taxi home, planning to get his ID card and go straight to the airport to fly to Bingcheng to visit his father.

The moment he opened the door, Chen Wei was a little shocked by the mess in his home.

The cabinet doors and drawers were open, and there were some small objects scattered on the floor.

All Gao Qi's belongings, including bags, jewelry, clothes, shoes, computers, tablets... were all gone.

Even the various bottles and jars she uses for daily skin care and makeup are gone.

Chen Wei was a little worried. Could it be that he didn't collect enough 100,000 yuan, so Gao Qi pawned everything he could

Will the pawn shop accept those half-used bottles and cans

Chen Wei quickly called Gao Qi.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is currently on a call..." came a cold female voice.

How stupid I am! It is now 10:30 in the evening. Gao Qi should be on the plane flying to Bingcheng. He should be in airplane mode now. How could he answer the phone

Chen Wei slapped his head hard and dialed his mother's phone number.

"Mom, did Gao Qi call you the money?" Chen Wei asked softly.

"Are you talking about Xiaoqi? No? What happened?" The mother on the other end of the phone was a little confused.

"Oh, I forgot to tell her your account number. It's okay, Mom, I'm raising money here and I'm so busy." Chen Wei explained and hung up the phone quickly.

She blamed herself for her poor memory. She was busy with the interview and forgot to send her mother's account number to Gao Qi. She must have been afraid that calling would delay her interview, and she was in a hurry to go to Bingcheng, so she took the cash exchanged from the pawn shop and flew directly to Bingcheng. City!

Chen Wei wiped the sweat from his forehead, cursed himself for being stupid, and started looking for his ID card.

Chen Wei is usually a bit sloppy and often loses things. Ever since he got together with Gao Qi, he has asked Gao Qi to help him collect his ID card. Now he searched everywhere for a long time and couldn't find his ID card.

While looking for his ID card, Chen Wei was surprised to find that all of Gao Qi's belongings were missing, including some insurance contracts and information that he usually kept at home.

Gao Qi must have planned to stay with his mother in Bingcheng for a long time. In order not to delay his work, he took all these materials away!

Unable to find his ID card, Chen Wei had to sit on the sofa and wait for Gao Qi's call.

After Gao Qi arrives in Bingcheng, he will definitely see the missed call he made to her and call her back.

At half past eleven.

half past twelve.

Every time I make a call, I always hear the sentence, "Sorry, the number you dialed is currently on a call..."

Chen Wei's face gradually lost color.

This is a cute new one, please collect it, please invest, and please vote for me~
