Zhuang Sheng nodded. During his time in the army, during his time on duty, what kind of pain had he not endured? As long as he could stand up, this little pain was nothing to him!
"I will. As long as I can get better, I'm not afraid of any pain!"
As long as she gets better, he can protect her and never let her get hurt again.
"Brother Zhuang Sheng, I want to discuss something with you." Liu Ruonan seemed to hesitate for a moment before slowly speaking.
"You say." The low and hoarse voice was full of masculine charm.
Liu Ruonan's heart trembled, and she used the darkness to hide her shyness.
"I have made the ointment, but I am still short of two more herbs. These two herbs are quite expensive..." Liu Ruonan never had the courage to ask for money.
However, Zhuang Sheng understood her meaning and turned his head away in shame. His own woman was too embarrassed to ask for help in order to treat him. She must be concerned about her condition and worried about the hardship she would face in the future.
"How much do you need?"
"……two thousand!"
This is not a small amount. Zhuang Sheng took a deep breath and tried to remain calm.
"Although I had a way out for myself at the time, after the turmoil at home, I didn't have much money left."
Actually, there was also money for the wedding. But Zhuang Sheng had to bring this up as well? After all, he was marrying a wife, and these were all his expenses. This woman, without asking for anything, didn't even care that he might be crippled for life, and resolutely married him. So, he had to be worthy of this woman.
"Go to the closet and get my underwear." The piece of clothing Zhuang Sheng was talking about was the one he was wearing when he was kicked out of the house by Zhuang Qiang.
Liu Ruonan stood up, turned on the flashlight, found the vest in the closet, and handed it to Zhuang Sheng.
Zhuang Sheng took the vest and turned it inside out. Inside was a cloth bag he had sewn himself, filled with money. Zhuang Sheng took out all the money and handed it to Liu Ruonan.
"Look at how much there is. It's probably less than a thousand. I'll figure out how to make the rest."
What could he do? Liu Ruonan felt a little guilty. Wasn't this just adding to Zhuang Sheng's troubles?
No wonder Zhuang refused to let her wash the dress a few days ago. It turns out there's a hidden secret! Haha, it's a good thing he figured it out.
Zhuang Qiang's family must have broken his heart, right? That's why he tried so hard to leave himself a way out.
"This money was originally intended for medical treatment, but... I didn't expect it to cost so much."
Liu Ruonan counted and found that there were still 950 yuan left.
But she was already very relieved, and said to Zhuang Sheng, "Don't worry about it, I'll figure out the rest."
After saying that, he put the money away.
Liu Ruonan lay back down on the bed, but Zhuang Sheng suddenly stretched out his arms and held her in his arms. His arms were strong and powerful, and she felt very secure in his arms.
Liu Ruonan's cheek was pressed against Zhuang Sheng's chest, and she could even clearly hear the sound of his heartbeat. Liu Ruonan blushed instantly.
This was their first such intimate contact. Even in their previous life, when Zhuang Sheng had guarded her for the rest of her life, their relationship was based on emotion and ended with courtesy.
Never crossed the line.
Zhuang Sheng was also a little nervous, his heartbeat suddenly increasing several times. His woman was so thin and looked so fragile, yet she shouldered such a heavy burden.
Zhuang Sheng said in a hoarse voice, "Man, man."
This was the first time he called her so affectionately, and Liu Ruonan shyly responded, "Yeah."
"Believe me, when I get better, I will never let you suffer any more!"
"I believe you!"
Liu Ruonan firmly believed it. It was true in her previous life, and it is true in this life as well.
When Zhuang Sheng gets better, they will leave here and have nothing to do with these cruel and ruthless people here.
There was no word between them. After a long silence, the two of them fell asleep peacefully.
Liu Ruonan was worried because she didn't have enough money.
The only people she could think of were Zhuang Sheng's uncles. After much hesitation, she finally went there.
But the final result is that you first have to listen to a cry of poverty and then be politely rejected.
When Chen Wanglong learned that Liu Ruonan had borrowed money, he called her home and handed her the only 200 yuan in savings.
Liu Ruonan didn't answer. She hadn't come to see the old man then because she felt they were old and needed to have some money on hand to be prepared for any eventuality. She couldn't take the old man's money, no matter how desperately she tried.
Looking at Chen Wanglong's kind face, Liu Ruonan was very grateful in her heart, but in the end she politely declined: "Grandpa, I accept your and grandma's kindness, but I can't take your money."
"Who said it was for you? This is for Zhuang Sheng's medical treatment. Even though the money is not much, it's enough to make up for the loss. When Zhuang Sheng gets better and makes some money, you can return it to me."
Chen Wanglong's voice was unyielding, as if he was ordering Liu Ruonan to accept it.
"But……"
"Take it!"
Chen Wanglong ordered again.
Liu Ruonan finally had no choice but to accept it. Now was the time when she needed money, and no one was willing to lend her money. Everyone didn't trust Liu Ruonan, fearing that the money would be wasted. The old man's money could only be used for emergency purposes first.
Just like the old man said, wait until Zhuang Sheng gets better and then return it to them.
Seeing that Liu Ruonan accepted it, Chen Wanglong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Ruonan saw her grandmother sitting on a chair beside her, her legs shaking uncontrollably. Liu Ruonan stepped forward, squatted down in front of her grandmother, gently pinched her legs, and asked:
