She was a little unhappy. Xuanbao had changed. He used to be very nice, a warm little sun. But he only started deliberately not replying to her messages in the past two months.
Xuanbao: Jiaojiao baby, I'm sorry, I can't go tonight. Something happened at home and I need to go back.
Lin Jiaojiao, who was originally a little emotional, immediately became worried after seeing this message.
[Jiaojiao: It's okay. Family matters are more important. Is it serious?]
Xuanbao: A bit serious
[Xuanbao: Baby, I might need your help...]
Seeing this, Lin Jiaojiao panicked for a moment. It was so serious!
Could it be that Xuanbao’s grandparents passed away?
How sad Xuanbao must be!
She has to go with him!
She had to quickly ask how many days would be needed so that she could ask for leave from her counselor and avoid further delay.
[Jiaojiao: Baby, I need you to come over for a few days. I'll take leave right away.]
It took several minutes for the other side to reply
Xuanbao: Jiaojiao, no need. My home is in the mountains, and it's inconvenient to get in and out. I don't want you to suffer.
Doesn't she need to go? Then how can she help Wang Xuan?
[Jiaojiao: Baby, I'm not afraid of hardship. I want to be by your side.]
[Xuanbao: Jiaojiao, be obedient and be good.]
[Jiaojiao: Can you do it yourself? Are you sure you don't want me to go? What can I do for you?]
Xuanbao: My grandma was diagnosed with a serious malignant tumor. She raised me since I was a child, and I really don't want to leave her. But the doctor said the surgery plus the subsequent chemotherapy will cost 200,000 yuan. Baby, can you help me...?
Lin Jiaojiao immediately calmed down after seeing these words. All she saw was 200,000 yuan, and her first reaction was that it was a scam.
Secondly, she is a poor student, and 200,000 is an astronomical figure for her, which she cannot afford.
Moreover, Wang Xuan replied to this long message almost instantly, as if he had prepared it in advance.
She knew that she was a little lovesick, otherwise she wouldn't give all the living expenses from her family to Wang Xuan every month and support herself by working part-time.
But this is 200,000! Even if she was in love, she calmed down.
Perhaps because she hadn't replied for several minutes, another message came.
Xuanbao: Jiaojiao baby, do you think I'm lying to you? I borrowed from all my relatives, friends, and classmates, and barely managed to scrape together 100,000 yuan. I really don't have the money for the remaining 100,000 yuan.
Xuanbao: Video
【Xuanbao: Pictures】
Xuanbao: This is a video of my grandma being hospitalized, along with the doctor's diagnosis.
Lin Jiaojiao opened the video. Grandma Wang was wearing a loose hospital gown. She was lying on the hospital bed with a skinny body and a pale face. She had an oxygen mask on her face, an infusion bottle hanging on her left side, and the back of her hand was bruised from being pricked.
After watching for a while, Lin Jiaojiao didn't dare to look anymore. It was really too pitiful.
But she still retained a bit of rationality in her heart and opened the diagnosis, which showed a lung tumor.
It's true! She sighed deeply.
[Jiaojiao: Baby, how is grandma now? Has she been hospitalized? I really want to help you, but you know, I'm just a student and don't have much money.]
Xuanbao: What about your family? Ask them to figure out a way to help with the money.
[Jiaojiao: My family's been running low on money lately. My brother's getting married soon, and we've used up all our savings on the house, car, betrothal gifts, and wedding money, and we're even in debt.]
Xuanbao: Can you talk to your uncle, aunt, and brother about selling their car to help out?
[Jiaojiao: My brother bought his car a few years ago. It only cost tens of thousands of yuan when new. Selling it used would only fetch a few tens of thousands of yuan at most. It’s not cost-effective.]
Xuanbao: Jiaojiao, what about the house? Can we sell it to help out? I'm really at my wit's end.
[Jiaojiao: The house is mortgaged. My brother has already renovated it. He moved in right after he got engaged to my sister-in-law...]
Xuanbao: Can you discuss this with my brother and sister-in-law? They should understand, right?
"Are you sick?" Lin Jiaojiao put down her phone angrily, and the clicking sound was particularly noticeable in the quiet dormitory.
She was also shocked.
Wang Xiaoshi, who was watching a short video, glanced down and pressed pause.
"Jiaojiao, what's wrong? Did I disturb you? How about I wear headphones?" He had a smile on his face, but his hands showed no intention of taking out the headphones.
Lin Jiaojiao was afraid that she would misunderstand, so she explained, "No, no, I was reading a joke and it was so irritating that I lost control. You can continue reading and ignore me."
Wang Xiaoshi waved her phone and said, "Then I'll continue."
Seeing that Xiaoshi was no longer paying attention to her, Lin Jiaojiao turned her attention to Wang Xuan.
How could he say such a thing? Her brother and sister-in-law's house was bought with the money her parents and brother had saved for half their lives. How could she possibly ask them to sell the house?
She was already very unfilial. She felt guilty for giving Wang Xuan the living expenses that her parents had worked hard to earn over the past year.
[Jiaojiao: Baby, can you please understand me? I can't make the decision about the house. Even if I really ask them, they won't agree.]
[Jiaojiao: Can I take a week off to take care of grandma?]
No one knew what Wang Xuan was doing and he didn't reply. Lin Jiaojiao held the phone tightly with both hands and kept refreshing the message interface.
Half an hour later, Wang Xuan finally replied, but what he sent was a link?
Lin Jiaojiao hesitantly clicked on the link. Loan!?
Xuanbao: Jiaojiao, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have made things difficult for you. I just contacted some classmates. They're very kind and helped me with the loan. I've already applied for it.
Xuanbao: I'm still a little short. The minimum loan a college student can get is 30,000 yuan, with an annual interest rate of 5%. Jiaojiao, can you lend me some? Please! I'm breaking down and crying!
Xuanbao: Baby, once you gather all the money, grandma can have the surgery this month. Arrange everything for grandma this month, and I'll be able to come visit you next month... I really want to hug my Jiaojiao.
When she saw the word "loan", the previous "college student L loan" instantly came to Lin Jiaojiao's mind, and she didn't dare.
[Jiaojiao: Baby, is this channel your classmate introduced legitimate? It's not a loan shark or something like that, is it?]
Xuanbao: My dear Jiaojiao, how is that possible? You are my dear girlfriend and we are going to get married in the future. How could I bear to let you get involved in something like this?
Xuanbao: This is a loan product under Tianqi Bank. You can download the bank's app in the application center. Information about this product is available on the homepage.
【Jiaojiao: Baby, wait a moment. I'll go check it out.】
Xuanbao: Okay, Jiaojiao, don't worry. Loans do require some careful research.
