She wanted to return the money to Ai Xiaoli as quickly as possible. Although she couldn't make much money by selling her blood, it could at least make her feel less guilty. It was like she had a tendency to self-abuse, and that way she would feel better.

She hated her own weak character and really hoped that such a thing would never happen again in her life, otherwise she would regret it so much.

When Fan Zhiqiang saw the pale expression on the girl's face and her panic, he felt very painful. Why? She actually sold blood for money. She was so young and weak. She had severe anemia because of selling blood, but she was beaten like this. How could Fan Zhiqiang feel uncomfortable?

"Are you really that short of money? So short of money that you have to sell blood?" Fan Zhiqiang cursed him fiercely in his heart, what a fool! How could he do such a thing as selling blood?

"After I took Ai Xiaoli's money to pay my mother's medical treatment, I now have no money to pay back Ai Xiaoli, so I can only go out to earn money. But how much can I earn alone? Plus the family needs expenses. I heard that selling blood is easy to make money, so I have to sell blood." Li Jialing was not trying to win his sympathy or anything, she just really hoped not to cause them any harm.

Although she did those wrong things, she has been trying hard to make up for it afterwards. Thinking about it now, I feel so depressed and sad... Fan Zhiqiang looked at Li Jialing in front of him and really couldn't hate her. How could he be so stupid to sell blood?

In the past, when Fan Xiaofeng was poor at home, he did sell blood. Even a grown man like him would faint, not to mention a little girl like Li Jialing? Perhaps it was the emotion in his heart that was causing the trouble, so Fan Zhiqiang felt as if his heart was torn apart, and it hurt so much that he almost suffocated.

"My mother is still waiting for me at home to cook. I have to go back quickly." Li Jialing had just stood up, but she felt dizzy again and almost fell down again.

Fan Zhiqiang supported her in time. If he hadn't, she might have really fallen to the ground.

"Where do you want to go? The doctor said you have severe anemia. Where do you want to go if you don't have a good rest?" Fan Zhiqiang grabbed her arm tightly, making it impossible for her to escape. Li Jialing endured his burning gaze, then licked her lips and swallowed her saliva.

"My younger brothers and sisters at home need me to go back and take care of them. My mother's health is not good and there is no one to take care of her family. Who else but me can take on this responsibility?" Li Jialing's words were full of helplessness.

Without listening to Li Jialing's explanation, Fan Zhiqiang pushed her back onto the bed and threatened her: "You must rest well here today."

"Zhiqiang..." Li Jialing had just said the two words when Fan Zhiqiang felt goose bumps all over his body. He then yelled at her viciously, "Don't always talk to me in that tone. You should rest when I tell you to." Then, he glared at Li Jialing who was about to speak again, "Did you hear me?"

Li Jialing swallowed her words again and then nodded.

Li Jialing knew that Fan Zhiqiang must still care about her, otherwise he would not just ignore her like this. She was really happy in her heart, but the situation at home was so complicated that she had to go back quickly. Besides, her mother had not been given the medicine yet.

Seeing that Li Jialing was about to get up again, Fan Zhiqiang stood up instantly.

"Since you want to leave so much, then go. If you faint outside, I won't care about you anymore." Fan Zhiqiang was really annoyed when he saw that she was so disobedient, so he just said this.

Li Jialing could only lie quietly on the bed, looking at Fan Zhiqiang in front of her, not daring to blink.

Li Jialing suddenly thought of how good their relationship was in the past. The two of them went to the movies together, picked herbs in the back hills together, and looked after the herbal medicine shop together. Everything was done by the two of them together. It was such a happy thing, but now she had destroyed this happiness.

When she thought of what she had done, she suddenly couldn't hold back her tears anymore. Seeing her crying like this made me feel upset and I didn't know why she was crying.

"Why are you crying? Nothing happened. What's there to cry about?" Fan Zhiqiang hated to see girls crying like this. It really made him very annoyed. It seemed as if he had bullied her. Fan Zhiqiang was complaining about himself in his heart, but it would have been fine if Fan Zhiqiang hadn't said anything. The more he talked, the louder and more sadly Li Jialing cried. Fan Zhiqiang felt unwell after hearing it.

"Can you please stop crying?" Fan Zhiqiang rubbed his temples. "Li Jialing, if you cry again, I will leave!"

Seeing that she was still crying, Fan Zhiqiang wanted to leave immediately, but Li Jialing quickly grabbed Fan Zhiqiang's hand, and then wiped her tears and said with a sob: "I just feel that I haven't been cared for like this by you for a long time, I am really very touched."

Fan Zhiqiang thought about it carefully and realized that he didn't know what had happened to the two of them in the past few days because of this incident. Although he was disappointed with Li Jialing, he still thought of her every time he closed his eyes, so he stood up for her the first time she was bullied.

This kind of emotion is so complicated that he feels very depressed...

Yan Shuhua also heard about Li Jialing's situation. She was deeply shocked to hear that Li Jialing had chosen to sell blood in order to pay back Ai Xiaoli's money.

When Xiao Jinchu heard this, she also found it a little unbelievable. After all, how much blood could such a weak girl like her sell?

"Although I also hate what she did, the fact proves that she does feel a little remorseful afterwards, and that's very nice of her to us, right? So I think we can't just put her in death row just because she did something wrong, right?" These words were said by Xiao Jinchu.
