Biên tập viên: EndlessFantasy Translation
When she opened the panel, Han Xiang found that the place where there was a string of numbers in the upper left corner now read '-8,618.7'.
But wasn't the previous number 2,600? She was sure it was something else.
Moreover, in the system panel, which originally only had main and side missions, an 'exchange shop' suddenly appeared. Many strange things had suddenly appeared in it.
For example: [Friendship Boat: 1000 points], [Kidnapper's Authentic Knockout Drug: 500 points], [A Gift for Xinyi: 400 points], and so on.
However, at this moment, their icons were all gray, showing that they were "Not available for purchase".
"System, what's going on now?"
This was the first time Han Xiang took the initiative to summon it in her mind.
[What question would you like to ask me?]
"What about the medicine that saved my grandfather?"
[You bought it.]
"What did I buy it with? The number in the upper left corner or with yuan?"
[you have agreed to go through the credit and loan procedures. Your original account score is 2600. You were 7399 points short of purchasing the item. After making up the points, the system will charge you 30% interest.]
[Regarding the credit score, you also completed the hidden task of "Getting the approval of all Han family members" and received 1000 points, so your current score is -8618.7.]
[You need to pay off the points you owe within the stipulated time limit, or you will be killed.]
In other words, if she did not do the mission to earn points back to the system, she would be killed?
Han Xiang was very unhappy with this kind of forced buying and selling behavior. She asked, "Why did you have to wait until my grandfather was in critical condition before you told me that you could exchange things? Are you taking advantage of the situation? I'm helping you with the quest. Not only did you not help me, you even took so much interest. Isn't this too much of a scam?"
The system still replied coldly, [The system detected that your mood swings were quite volatile. In order to prevent the plot from collapsing, it opened the exchange shop for you in advance. According to the rules, the exchange shop will only open when your points reach 10,000.]
In other words, the system had opened the exchange shop for Han Xiang in advance and saved Grandpa Han's life. Han Xiang should be thanking it.
Han Xiang was speechless, but this chain reaction always made her feel like she had fallen into a pit. Was it an illusion? She always felt that the system was forcing her to do missions in various ways.
"Then how do I earn points? I owe so much, how long do I have to pay it back?"
[You don't have to worry, as long as you listen to the mission prompts, it's very likely that you'll pay the points back within the stipulated time limit.]
After owing the system so much, Han Xiang only felt uneasy sitting there.
At this moment, her big brother, Han Yuan sent a message: There's a new lead in Niu's case, I'll go handle it, you can accompany Grandpa Han in peace.
It was not until that night that the sleeping old man woke up slowly. When he saw Han Xiang, the old man was about to speak, but he realized that there was a ventilator in his mouth. There were medical staff around him, so he did not dare to move anymore.
Han Xiang held the old man's hand and comforted him, "Grandpa, don't worry. It's okay."
The attending doctor in a white coat was studying the device that connected to Grandpa Han's body. He stared at the image on the screen for more than twenty minutes before he rushed out again.
Then, a doctor in a white coat walked in. Han Xiang glanced at her casually and was a little surprised. Wasn't this Yang Su?
Yang Su adjusted her glasses and said a few words to Grandpa Han before she was called over by the attending doctor.
"Professor Yang, look here..."
Yang Su also studied it carefully. The more she looked, the more incredulous she became. She said in a low voice, "This part of the cancer cell is..."
"Yes, my judgment is the same." The attending doctor confirmed Yang Su's thoughts.
"How is that possible? This is the first time I've seen such a situation. Do you still have the sample? Let me take a look."
After receiving an affirmative reply, Yang Su became excited. The white mask covering half of her face could not hide her joy. She spoke a few words to Han Xiang and Grandpa Han before hurriedly taking the attending doctor out.
For the past two days, Han Xiang had been accompanying Grandpa Han. Grandpa Han's spirit and condition were getting better and better. By the next day, he could even sit up and play chess with Han Xiang.
The doctor said that if Grandpa Han's condition was always this stable, he could be discharged from the hospital after a short period of time.
After the improvement, Grandpa Han refused to let Han Xiang continue to accompany him no matter what. He said that his body was very healthy and wanted her to go back to school to attend class.
When Han Xiang came out of the ICU, it was already the next night.
