Chen Shouwang heard Hualing's question and his expression became somewhat panicked. His gaze shifted and met Qi Taiguo's piercing eyes, which made him even more flustered, so he started to cough softly.
Qi Taiguo then said, "Since he's awake and there's nothing wrong, everyone should go back. Let's not disturb Platoon Leader Chen's rest."
Chen Shouwang gave him a grateful look.
Back at home, Cheng Su couldn't wait to pull Qi Taiguo aside and ask what was really going on with Chen Shouwang's blood draw, as she had seen the exchange of looks between them.
Qi Taiguo pursed his lips and said, "I suspect that he might have gone to sell blood?"
"Sell... what, sell blood?" Cheng Su's eyes widened in disbelief, thinking she had misheard. She hadn't misheard, had she? Selling blood?
Selling blood is something that one would only consider if they were desperate for money. The Chen family couldn't possibly be so poor as to resort to selling blood, could they?
