So Luo Qiao turned to Liu Weidong, "Weidong, I've run out of money. Could you lend me some? I need to find a place to stay for the night, and tomorrow Hai Lan and I will continue our inquiries on our own."
Liu Weidong felt a little embarrassed about not being able to help, "Why look for a place? Just spend the night at my house, save yourself the unnecessary expense."
But Ning Ziping insisted, "No, I won't trouble you. You have kids at home, and it's not like I've never been to your place before. If we came over, you wouldn't be able to rest well. Just lend me some money; I'll find a place tomorrow."
Seeing Ning Ziping so determined, Liu Weidong had no choice but to borrow some from his colleagues and add his own, totaling sixty yuan, "Ziping, this is all I could scrape together, take it and use it for now."
After having dinner with them at Shi Chang, Liu Weidong took the couple to a nearby hostel to settle in before he left.
