Chapter 960

~3 min read 565 words

"Our Nannan's special care ward was arranged with just one word from Hongdou's boyfriend; she's lived there until now, and we've never been asked for a single penny!"

After Chen Nanxing's mother finished speaking,

she suddenly couldn't hold back her tears: "Oh my, what is this situation? Our Nanxing clearly had a very bright future, how, how did it come to this point of being matched for a ghost marriage? Nannan's father, your heart is truly cruel!"

Upon hearing this, Uncle Xiong and Aunt Li's faces immediately changed.

Seeing this, Chen Nanxing's father quickly put on an apologetic smile, first apologizing to the parents of Xiong Tao across from them,

then Chen Nanxing's father grabbed Chen Nanxing's mother's hands and said: "Enough, enough, absolutely do not cry, or Nanxing will see it in a moment!"

"I know this is not good, but, we have no choice!"

"Although Hongdou's boyfriend covered Nanxing's hospitalization fees and medicine costs, those other expenses are not something we can bear either; hundreds of thousands, just all thrown away like that; we are using money to extend Nannan's life!"

"Nannan's mother, you know the family's current situation better than I do; we've sold everything we could sell, leaving only that old house; Nannan's follow-up treatment still needs money, but our house won't fetch a price; even if we sell it at a huge loss, we can only scrape together over a hundred thousand..."

"If we truly spend all that money, where will we live? If Nannan hasn't died yet? Where will we get more money?! We two are just laborers, no social security, no pension; how will we support ourselves in old age?"

"Brother Xiong already said, as long as they take a liking to Nannan, they will give us six hundred thousand; the condition is just to arrange a ghost marriage for Nannan after she dies; this, is already very good..."

"To be honest, six hundred thousand is enough for Nannan to last another year or two; if we can save a little more later, we two old useless ones can also provide for our own old age; Nannan's mother, I've spoken clearly, you cannot cry anymore, do you hear me?"

After Nannan's father finished speaking, he frowned, preparing to scold Nannan's mother,

but Uncle Xiong, who had been sitting across and silent until now, sighed at this moment and then said: "To be honest, I truly like this child Nanxing; it's just a pity, fate without fortune; since we cannot be family while alive, we can only reunite after death."

"How about this, Nanxing's father, as long as you and Nanxing's mother sign a contract with us, guaranteeing that after Nanxing passes away, the ghost marriage ceremony with Taotao will be completed, I will add another two hundred thousand for you, a total of eight hundred thousand, is that okay?"

"This extra two hundred thousand, I also hope Nanxing can live a bit longer, to fulfill her unfulfilled wishes."

After Uncle Xiong finished speaking, he looked at Chen Nanxing's parents, waiting for an answer,

Chen Nanxing's father bit his lip tightly, his right hand trembling slightly,

after a long while,

Chen Nanxing's father still could not make this decision, so he could only force out a smile uglier than crying and said: "Brother Xiong, let me think about it again, I beg you, let me think about it again..."
