Chapter 57 The Unexpected Call on Saturday: Brother Lei

   "Meow~"

  Cuckoo~

   "Got it, got it, I'll prepare breakfast for you, don't wake up the brothers, do you understand?"

   While talking, he tapped the little guy, opened a can for it and matched it with cat food and milk.

  The meal he likes for supper is just so full in front of it.

  Hearing the master's warning, it also nodded its head in a ghostly manner, and waited on the desk in a well-behaved sitting posture.

   When the little guy is full, Li Songlin will take a bath!

  Because the weather was exceptionally good today, he went out again with a midnight snack;

   This time, he stepped out of the dormitory door with a bag on his back and the little guy in his hands.

  He was going to eat, and the supper was to go out to find his friends, so the two of them split up halfway!

  Here, he ordered his favorite breakfast as usual, and he began to eat it with big mouthfuls.

   I don’t know if it’s because the body needs energy all the time or what, but his appetite is surprisingly good after exercising.

  Of course, eating is also unambiguous;

   While eating happily, a call came into Li Songlin's cell phone.

"elder brother?"

  Looking at the number that he knew so well in his heart, he connected without even thinking about it!

   "Hey, Songlin, did it make you sleep?"

   "Brother, I woke up early, how could you disturb me!"

  Li Songlin was listening to the phone, and Wang Lei's voice on the other end was not right at all.

  As a long-standing friend and brother, and the only one, he still pays close attention to Wang Lei.

   Immediately frowned and asked him why: "Why does brother sound so weak, what happened?"

   "...Matsubayashi, I'm so tired!"

  Wang Lei was facing the other end of the phone, but his eyes drooped sourly.

  God knows, it would be embarrassing for his elder brother, who has just started working for a few years, to go to the point of asking his younger brother for help and comfort;

   Ordinarily, even if he saw Li Songlin’s activities, he would never disturb him. He hoped that Li Songlin could finish his college career happily.

  But this time, he was really out of luck!

  A few years ago, Wang Lei's parents and family members passed away one after another, and he had just recovered from the effects of time when he got a disease that required surgery.

   Originally, the savings from working for several years were not enough, so he could only call his friends one by one.

  The result is obvious, because he is already single, and many friends refuse to lend him money for medical treatment.

  He didn't say he wouldn't pay it back, but they didn't believe it, so he was out of luck!

  Finally, I called this younger brother, not to ask him to borrow money, but just to chat.

  Because of this illness, he could visibly notice that his energy had weakened.

  If something unexpected happens, his most special younger brother who has never lost contact with him may never see him again, so he decided to make a phone call.

  After Li Songlin asked, he paused for a long time and said that he was very tired.

  Just from that weak and hoarse voice, there was a bitter breath rushing towards his face.

   "Speak up, cheer up and talk, okay bro!"

   Pause and pause, question and answer, he already knew that it was definitely not a small matter, otherwise brother would never be so depressed.

   Putting down the chopsticks with a slap, Li Songlin stood up and walked quickly to the empty corridor to continue answering the phone.

   If you get too excited, it's not good to affect others, although there are not many people in the cafeteria.

   But out of courtesy, he did it anyway!

   "I'm sick, a disease that requires money and life~"

   "What disease, how much does it cost? How much worse?"

   Li Songlin asked three times directly, and then told Wang Lei that the two had a video chat, hung up the phone and dialed the video call.

  For the first time, he regretted that he had not contacted his brother who was working outside for so long!

   Opened WeChat in a hurry, and sent a video call request.

   "吹～吹～"

   A few seconds later, the video was connected. At this time, Wang Lei was wearing a hospital suit and looking weakly at the pillow.

   "Pine Forest, is that you?"

  Wang Lei, who was weak and pale, was puzzled the first time he saw Li Songlin.

   This is different from the younger brother he met during the Chinese New Year, so he asked very puzzled and uncertain.

   "Well, it's me, bro!"

   "It's grown up, it looks better than your parents, okay, that's great!"

   While smiling, he couldn't stop patting his own bed, with a look of happiness for him.

  But Li Songlin didn't pay attention to his words, but stared at him carefully.

  Looking at it, he knew that he looked sick to a certain extent, and he gasped while watching.

   "Brother, you haven't told me what I just asked?"

  Wang Lei, who was still happy for him, shook his head with a wry smile, and slowly talked about the events of this year to the video.

  It has been three years since my parents passed away, and the relationship with the remaining elders has basically faded away!

  So 20-year-old Wang Lei went to the construction site to move bricks and glass with the engineering team. This work lasted for three years.

  He just turned 22 years old, but a month ago, he began to have frequent nocturnal angina.

   Wang Lei went to the hospital for an examination when he couldn't bear it anymore.

  Finally, it was concluded that severe angina pectoris belongs to coronary disease, and only one of the three coronary arteries in the cardiovascular system is still supplying normal blood.

  The doctor said that a heart bypass operation must be done before he can get better.

  The deposits over the years plus calls from friends to borrow money, he only raised 45,000 in total, and the operation cost 95,000, not to mention the recuperation and recovery costs in the current hospital.

   "It's still fifty thousand, isn't it?"

   Li Songlin heaved a sigh of relief. It would be enough for him to ask his friends to borrow a little more, and then just fill in the publishing fee.

   "Well, but you don't need to worry about the little guy. I just want to chat with you. I know where you will get money when you are studying."

   Seeing his younger brother's nervousness, he gave a weak and encouraging smile.

  Wang Lei got it wrong, Li Songlin directly said that he was rich.

   "I'll lend it to my brother, wait until noon, okay?"

  While talking, he transferred 30,000 yuan via WeChat, and said that the remaining 20,000 yuan can be found by himself.

   "Li Songlin, what's the matter with you? Where did the money come from?"

  Looking at the transfer, thinking that his younger brother had just entered college and became an adult, he immediately put on a straight face and was so nervous that he was afraid that the other party would not learn well after school.

   Li Songlin knew that the other party was thinking too much, so he honestly talked about the origin of the money.

   During the speech, he also took the opportunity to roughly talk about his four months.

   Then, Wang Lei who was leaning on the pillow was relieved and leaned on the pillow again.

  The two brothers chatted one after another, but it was Li Songlin who saw his tired face and drove him away to rest.

  At the end of the video, Wang Lei also told him, don’t worry, it doesn’t matter if you can’t borrow it;

   "Beep beep beep~"

  After hanging up, Li Songlin began to think about how to borrow the 20,000 yuan and who to borrow.

  Even if he didn't want to, he would force himself to borrow it.

  Brother Lei is his savior, the eldest brother who has always doted on him and is respected by him in his heart.

  He will never look at the other party without money for treatment, even if the other party has no ability to repay him, he is willing to give him away.

  For him, Brother Wang Lei has always been his salvation, an indelible friend and close relative...

   Note: Brother Lei didn’t write it down on paper, I will explain the relationship in the next chapter. (*ˊˋ*)
