Submission from our follower:
“Pregnant woman in hospital begs me to buy her cola… I refused and later found out why.”
I was waiting in a Chinese hospital after queuing for a long time when a pregnant woman came up to me. She said she had low blood sugar and asked me to quickly buy her a bottle of cola.
It was finally my turn for my check-up, so I refused.
During my ultrasound, I overheard two doctors talking about her: she had an unstable fetal position and was at high risk of miscarriage. She had been approaching many people, asking them to buy her drinks — apparently looking for someone to pin the blame on if something went wrong with her pregnancy.
I was terrified afterward. Thank goodness I didn’t help her.
Moral of the story
When you’re out in public in China, always assume the worst intentions from strangers. If someone asks you for help, the safest reply is:
“Sorry, but I can call the police for you right now.”
The only thing you can safely trust from a random stranger is probably:
“They’re checking helmets up ahead.”
