Cheng Jiawen reacted quickly and pressed the brake. Xu Qianjiao, who was sitting in the back, was frightened by the sudden brake and bumped into Cheng Jiawen's back.
She covered her forehead tightly with both hands, and her pretty face instantly wrinkled into a ball, like a kneaded bun, with an expression of grievance and confusion on her face. She muttered and complained, "Why did you brake so suddenly?"
Cheng Jiawen turned around abruptly, his eyes fixed on Xu Qianjiao. A bright red flush appeared on her forehead, contrasting sharply with her fair skin, like a red plum blossom blooming in the snow.
His face darkened instantly, and he gently reached out his hand and carefully stroked the injured forehead.
"Does it hurt?" His voice was low and concerned, filled with heartache for her. There was an indescribable tenderness in his words that moved everyone.
"It hurts." Xu Qianjiao frowned slightly, looked at Cheng Jiawen with tears in her eyes, and acted coquettishly to him in grievance.
Over here, Chen Yi was so anxious that she was fuming. She had no interest in watching the two of them talking about love, so she interrupted them directly and said, "I want to ask you for a favor. Don't worry, I won't let your help go in vain. I will pay you."
At this time, Cheng Jiawen and Xu Qianjiao gave her a look. After hearing her words, neither of them felt much moved. They were not interested in the reward she mentioned, nor did they want to be involved in their affairs.
"No need, we are not interested in your reward." Cheng Jiawen said expressionlessly and in a light tone.
Chen Yi's face turned pale. She looked at Xu Qianjiao and found that she also had a dull expression. She became more and more anxious. "I know you don't want to get into trouble, but really, I really have no other choice but to come to you for help. I..."
Hearing this, Xu Qianjiao interrupted her directly, "What do you want to ask us for? You only mentioned one thing, but you didn't say what it was. How can we consider whether it is worthwhile?"
Chen Yi nodded quickly, "I understand, I understand. I would like to ask you to help buy some antipyretics. My family member has a fever and the fever has not subsided. I can't buy any at the hospital. I..."
"Now you need a doctor's certificate to buy antipyretics. You can't just buy them casually." Cheng Jiawen interrupted her directly.
Nowadays, antipyretic drugs are strictly checked, especially those that can quickly reduce fever and eliminate inflammation. They can only be obtained with a doctor's certificate. Doctors also adhere to the idea of not prescribing such rare drugs if possible. Even if there is a fever, they rarely prescribe these drugs unless the fever is really severe.
Therefore, it is really not easy for ordinary people to buy these drugs, because these drugs are not available for purchase at all, and it is difficult to buy them even if you have money.
Chen Yihong nodded and sobbed, "I know, I know. I can't buy it, so I came to ask you for help. Do you have any other options?"
She knew that these medicines were difficult to buy. Even though her family was sent down to the countryside, they still had some good friends who could help buy some medicine. At that time, it was really thanks to her "good cousin" Liu Jiajia.
Now the Liu family is in dire straits because they reported them. Liu Jiajia has intentionally or unintentionally warned everyone not to lend them a helping hand, so now no one dares to help.
She really had no other choice. She had asked everyone she could for help. Now her grandmother had a high fever and if the fever continued, she would be in danger of dying.
Chen Yi pulled out a jade pendant from her pocket. "I know these things aren't worth much now, but these are all we have. I beg you, really, please help me. I have no way to repay you, but I will do anything for you."
After saying that, she wanted to kneel down in front of the two of them. Xu Qianjiao hurriedly supported her, feeling a little hesitant.
The matter of antipyretic drugs is not a big deal, but it is not a small one either. They can be bought on the black market, but anything done will leave traces. If someone is interested in investigating, they will definitely find it here.
But looking at Chen Yi's appearance, the people in the bullpen must be seriously ill. Otherwise, a proud girl like Chen Yi would not be so humble as to beg strangers like them if she had the chance.
She must be at the end of her rope. If they help, there will be risks, but if they don't, they will feel guilty. After all, it's a human life, and they are not so indifferent.
Xu Qianjiao looked at Cheng Jiawen, wanting to hear his thoughts. Cheng Jiawen was also struggling in his heart. This matter was not a big deal, but also not a small one. He had good classmates in the hospital and good brothers in the black market. Fever-reducing drugs were not difficult for him to get.
But what if something happens in the future and they give them away? This will be a disaster, how can it be avoided?
Chen Yi saw that they still looked indifferent, and her heart was filled with sadness. "Is there really no way? Grandma..."
At this time, an old grandfather came towards them, leaning on a broken branch. Although his legs were limping, his eyes were firm as he walked towards them step by step.
"Grandpa~" Chen Yi hurried forward to support the old man, "Why did you come out? Your legs are not convenient, and the doctor said you need to rest more."
Grandpa Chen patted Chen Yi's hand and said, "Don't worry, Grandpa is fine."
"Young man, young girl, I'm sorry to trouble you, Xiaoyi. We understand your concerns. I guarantee with my life that if anything happens in the future, we will not support you. I beg you, please help us." Grandpa Chen's eyes were red and he solemnly promised them.
"They really have no other options. They can't ask anyone they know for help, and their grandson is far away in the south. It's impossible for distant water to quench a nearby fire. His wife's fever is too severe. If the fever can't be reduced in time, her life will be in danger."
