Chapter 475: Chapter 474 Guilt Feeling

Bank lobby.

It was finally Shi Yue’s turn.

"Hello, could you please transfer these three hundred thousand into this account number?"

Shi Yue handed over the money and account number to the teller.

At that moment, her phone began to ring.

Seeing it was her own father calling, she hurriedly answered.

"Dad, I’ve raised the money, that two hundred thousand, I will transfer it to you guys in a moment."

Without waiting for her father to speak, Shi Yue said excitedly.

Her voice was brimming with excitement and joy.

Although the money hadn’t come easily, and not in the most ethical way, and she might even have to bear legal consequences for it, as long as it could save her mother’s life, it was worth it.

But Shi Yue’s father on the other end of the phone didn’t share any joy and remained silent for a long time without speaking.

"Dad, why aren’t you speaking, please say something?" Shi Yue had a bad premonition.

Indeed, her father told Shi Yue the unfortunate news in a hoarse voice.

"Little Yue, never mind, we won’t seek treatment for your mom’s sickness anymore."

"Why not? I, I have already raised enough money, why not continue the treatment?"

Shi Yue’s emotions became agitated at that moment.

After a moment of silence on the phone, the voice choked up and said.

"The doctor said, your mom’s brain tumor has worsened, and if we want to treat it, two hundred thousand is no longer enough, we need six hundred thousand."

"What?"

Upon hearing this news, she felt as if struck by lightning, nearly collapsing.

"Forget it, child, it’s not easy for you out there alone, and you probably went through a lot of trouble to raise that two hundred thousand. You’ve always been self-reliant with your studies, working and saving money, we know it’s not easy for you, don’t spend your money recklessly. We won’t treat mom’s illness anymore, just come home before she passes so she can see you once more, that will be enough."

Then came the weak voice of Shi Yue’s mother from the other end of the phone.

"Mom, don’t talk nonsense, you’re going to be alright."

Tears flowed from Shi Yue’s eyes.

She hated that she lacked the ability to save her own mother.

"No!"

Suddenly her gaze fell upon the three hundred thousand laying on the counter, originally intended to be transferred to Zhang Xiaoshan.

If she added her own two hundred thousand to these three hundred thousand, and then found another hundred thousand, wouldn’t she be able to pay for her mother’s treatment?

Shi Yue was actually a very stubborn girl, unwilling to owe anything to anyone, insisting on reciprocity. Even though her parents had given her life, despite their extreme poverty and the fact that it became a heavy burden on her, she had never complained. There was also the time she first met Zhang Xiaoshan on the hillside, when she gave him her most prized possession.

Even though Zhang Xiaoshan had threatened her with a recording, if she truly didn’t want to, what could Zhang Xiaoshan do? After all, the money Wu Yong had given her came from extorting Zhang Xiaoshan, and she didn’t want to be in Zhang Xiaoshan’s debt, preferring to compensate him with her own body instead.

This time, she had been able to get two hundred thousand, thanks to Zhang Xiaoshan.

Although she had never openly expressed gratitude to Zhang Xiaoshan, she truly appreciated him deep down.

So, the first thing she did after leaving school today was to transfer money to Zhang Xiaoshan.

But now, she had to make a choice.

"Wait a moment."

She clenched her teeth and stopped the teller who was in the process of making the transfer.

"Is there a problem?"

The teller looked up at Shi Yue.

After struggling for a moment, Shi Yue took out another account number and handed it over.

"Could you please transfer this three hundred thousand to a different account instead?"

...

A few minutes later, Shi Yue walked out of the bank lobby, her spirit shattered.

Gone was the joy from before, replaced with a state of profound sadness, her eyes wet with tears.

Her face bore a painful, struggling expression.

A heavy sense of guilt enveloped her.

She took out her phone and opened the chat window with Zhang Xiaoshan, composing many messages.

"I’m sorry, my mom is very ill and needs money for surgery, I need to use this money for the time being, I promise I will pay you back."

"I really am sorry, but I truly have no other choice."

But, she was unable to send any of them.

She felt too ashamed to face him.

"Forget it, he will never believe me, I was already a swindler in his eyes."

"When I have saved enough money, I’ll go and apologize to him in person."

Shi Yue wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and tossed her phone into a nearby drain before sadly boarding a bus.

Shortly after, she arrived at a tea restaurant.

"Why are you so late today? I’m going to dock you twenty yuan."

The foreman, his face covered with acne, reprimanded Shi Yue in displeasure.

Shi Yue kept her head down and didn’t speak, quietly changing into a waitress uniform and began her part-time job like any other day.
