CHAPTER 931 YOUNG BEGGAR

"Big sister, I know you are a kind and compassionate person. Please help me, I am desperately in need of your help and am asking if you can lend me tens of thousands of yuan. I promise to pay you back as soon as I am able." The seventeen or eighteen years old girl kowtowed and sobbed as she asked this.

Upon hearing the request for tens of thousands of yuan, Dong Jiao and the others frowned and many customers even withdrew their sympathy.

Initially, the girl's tearful and desperate actions had led them to believe that she might be a genuine person and not a liar.

It seemed unlikely that a dishonest person would go to such lengths, kowtowing and crying so sincerely just to cheat someone out of a few dollars. However, the request for tens of thousands of yuan was difficult to believe and they couldn't even believe that the girl had such a big mouth on her.

After all, it seemed like a large sum to ask for without any clear reason and it seemed that it would be worth it if this girl break her head on the ground while kowtowing.

Besides, even if the girl was genuinely in need, it seemed unreasonable to ask for such a large amount of money without any justification from a complete stranger.

"Please stand up and tell us what's going on," Shi Qing said as she helped the girl to her feet and continued. "We will try our best to help you, but we need to understand the situation first."

"Sister, please help me. I promise to work hard and pay you back as soon as I can," The girl continue to cry as she asked for help.

Shi Qing, Dong Jiao, and the others were not heartless people, and the girl's sincere tears made them feel distressed. The girl's crying seemed genuine and not fake.

"What happened?" Su Jing asked.

"This girl has been appearing for a few days now, begging for money from people," Dong Jiao explained. "Very few people have given her anything, but Shi Qing felt sorry for her and gave her a hundred yuan. Since then, she has come by every day, and Shi Qing has given her a few dozen yuan each time. But this time, she is asking for tens of thousands of yuan, and we don't know what to do."

"I don't think she's a liar," Shi Qing whispered to Su Jing after she pulled him aside. She wanted to help the girl, but she is worried about getting cheated on. And she is generally careful with my money so Shi Qing decided to discuss it with Su Jing first.

"I agree, she doesn't seem like a liar," Su Jing nodded. He released his spiritual force to detect the girl's mental fluctuations, which made it easy to judge her honesty.

If the other person was able to hide their emotions or was calm, it might be necessary to carefully detect any deviations. However, the girl was very emotional and seemed genuinely sincere, so Su Jing was confident that she was telling the truth.

"Should we help her?" Shi Qing asked.

"Yes, we should help," Su Jing replied with a smile.

"Okay," Shi Qing nodded, pulling Su Jing over to the girl. "Let's find out more about her situation."

The girl sobbed as she told them about her situation. It turned out that her mother had been diagnosed with a tumor the year before last.

Not only was she unable to work, but the cost of the operation and hospitalization drained all of their savings and required them to borrow tens of thousands of yuan.

After her mother was discharged from the hospital and had a chance to recover, she returned to work. However, she fell ill again and they discovered that the tumor had recurred.

The girl's father couldn't handle the pressure and ran away from home, leaving no trace behind.

The girl refused to leave with her father and stayed with her mother, who was hospitalized. She stopped going to school and started working to make money. In addition to being a restaurant waiter, she also took on part-time jobs.

However, even with all of this work, it was not enough to cover the medical costs. Desperate and out of options, she reluctantly begged on the street. Just the day before, her mother's condition had suddenly worsened, requiring emergency surgery.

She had no other choice but to come to the clothing store and ask for help from the kind and seemingly wealthy big sister.

"Please, believe me, brother and sister, I am not lying. If you lend me the money, I will do my best to pay it back with interest in the future. Please help me," The girl begged through her tears.

"You need to stay here and look after the store. I have some free time, so I will go with her," Su Jing said to Shi Qing.

"Little sister, this is my fiance. He will come with you to the hospital and help pay for your mother's medical expenses," Shi Qing said, her eyes reddening as she was affected by the girl's tears.

"Thank you, sister, thank you, Brother Xie," The girl exclaimed through her sobs as she heard Shi Qing's offer of help.

"Don't cry, let's go," Su Jing said.

"Okay…okay, brother, come with me," The girl said, trying to stop crying but it wasn't easy.

"Be kind to her," Shi Qing reminded Su Jing.

"I understand, don't worry," Su Jing replied.

Su Jing left with the girl, and Dong Jiao and the others were relieved to hear that they were going to the hospital. This further reduced the likelihood that the girl was a liar and a cheat.

Su Jing and Shi Qing's actions were admirable, and the tens of thousands of yuan was a small amount for them to help someone in need. Some of the customers, especially Su Jing's fans among them, couldn't help but feel more fond of Su Jing.

Two of them even took photos and prepared to post them on the internet.

Su Jing was driving a Porsche with the girl in the passenger seat. She seemed to be afraid of dirtying the seat and only sat on half of it. After driving for a while, Su Jing frowned slightly: "Which hospital are you going to? It's better to just tell me the address instead of giving directions."

"My mother is not in the hospital, but at home. She secretly left the hospital and refused to go back, no matter what we said." The girl explained anxiously as if she was afraid that Su Jing would not believe her, and she looked at him with an anxious expression on her face.

"Okay, just give me the address," Su Jing said.
