After receiving the call, Gao Yang didn't say much. He stood up, finished the call in the hospital's corridor, and returned to the ward, whispering, "Dad, Mom, I need to step out for a bit to take care of something, and I'm taking the money."
In the two days with his parents, Gao Yang had made time to prepare. He had his father withdraw four hundred thousand in cash. Additionally, he took a few two-inch photos needed for the fake passport. Now, all Gao Yang had to do was to take the money and leave.
Seeing Gao Yang's actions, his father stood up with a serious face and said, "What are you going to do? You just got back. What could you possibly have to deal with? Don't tell me you're planning to go see that Zhao fellow? I'm telling you, you don't need to worry about that issue; leave it to me."
