Chapter 19: Yiyi’s Tears

What does “Dragon Kingdom speed” mean?

Fang Jian had such a profound understanding of it for the first time. After several hours of strenuous car ride from the port, he returned home in the evening and was informed that his goods had been taken.

Fang Jian’s mouth twitched upon hearing the news. It wasn’t that he couldn’t bear it, but he felt that such an overt action was a bit too conspicuous. Well, since the goods had been delivered, he didn’t care much about it. He spent three quiet days at home and then received some news. On his company account in the Cayman Islands, he found an additional 300 million RMB and over 30 million USD, totaling nearly 500 million RMB in value.

Looking at this money, Fang Jian felt a little troubled.

Money is indeed good, but the problem arises when exceeding eight digits. For personal spending, it becomes just a number. Of course, buying an extremely luxurious house is an exception.

In the Dragon Kingdom, everything was good except that houses were too expensive. Plenty of houses cost over 100 million RMB, not to mention in first-tier cities. Even in Fang Jian’s hometown, Yungcheng, such houses exist. Having so much money lying in the bank account seemed a bit unreasonable.

“Wow…”

Suddenly, Fang Jian heard someone crying downstairs. He immediately recognized the voice—his little sweetheart, Fang Yiyi.

Fang Jian leaped out of bed and opened the door. He had been taking Yiyi to school these past few days, and his father would bring her back home after work because their workplace was near the kindergarten. For such a long time, whenever Yiyi came home, it was always the happiest moment for the family. It was the first time Fang Jian heard Yiyi crying.

As expected, Fang Jian took a few steps outside and saw his father holding Yiyi while she was sobbing.

Fang Jian’s anger surged up!

Fang Biao was taken aback, and his eyes widened.

This little brat is acting tough, daring to give me a look.

Fang Jian immediately backed down. As a man and a husband, he should respect the elderly and love the young, not argue with his father. He approached them, clapped his hands, and said, “Yiyi, come to me.”

“Big brother…” Yiyi opened her little hands.

Although Fang Biao felt awkward, he let go of his grip on his daughter.

Fang Jian comforted her, saying, “Yiyi, did Daddy accidentally hurt you with his rough hands? Shall we…?” He realized something was wrong and quickly changed his words, “Shall we blame the thing that bumped into you, okay?”

Fang Jian’s father, Fang Biao, let out a cold snort and then averted his gaze.

“What’s wrong? What’s wrong?” Shi Hui walked out of the kitchen, wiping her hands on her apron. She asked, “Who bullied our Yiyi?” She glared fiercely at the old man.

Fang Jian glanced at his father with a hint of smugness.

Some people will deal with you…

Fang Yiyi held onto her brother’s neck and sobbed, “Brother, I don’t want Yuanyuan to die. I don’t want to see Yuanyuan.”

Fang Jian blinked twice, a big question mark appearing on his forehead.

What is going on here?

Fang Biao sighed and said, “Liu Yuanyuan is Yiyi’s best playmate in kindergarten. She has been coughing and running a fever lately. We initially thought it was due to a weak constitution. But after a careful check, she was diagnosed with neuroblastoma.”

Shi Hui was shocked and asked, “Tumor?”

“Yes, I don’t know much about this illness either, but I heard it’s a type of cancer,” Fang Biao shook his head and continued, “Today, when I picked up Yiyi, the teachers and parents were discussing this matter, saying they want to raise funds for Yuanyuan.”

Shi Hui shook her head, feeling somewhat amazed, and said, “Those who attend the Five-Star Kindergarten shouldn’t be short of money, right?”

Fang Biao replied annoyedly, “Whether they need it or not is one thing, and whether we donate or not is another.”

Shi Hui nodded and said, “That’s true.”

Fang Jian recalled Liu Yuanyuan, the little girl. Although he hadn’t seen her much, he thought she was a well-behaved, clever, and lively little kid.

Most of the time, human offspring are adorable except when they cry and act stubbornly.

Moreover, she was Yiyi’s good friend.

“Brother, will Yuanyuan die?” Yiyi asked, wiping away her tears.

Fang Jian’s mind raced and asked, “Yiyi, who told you that Yuanyuan will die?”

“Daddy,” Yiyi replied.

Fang Jian chuckled internally and then heard his mother’s complaining voice, “Old man, just keep your mouth shut if you have nothing good to say.”

Fang Biao knew he was in the wrong and felt sulky.

“Brother, I want to go and see Yuanyuan. Can I?” Yiyi asked.

Without hesitation, Fang Jian said, “Of course, Dad, which hospital is she in?”

Fang Biao thought momentarily and said, “Let me ask the teacher…”

If another classmate were hospitalized, their family would probably just donate some money to show their support. But if it was Yiyi’s best friend, it would be different.
