Half an hour later, Shen MO and Bai Youwei arrived at the rest stop.
A group of people had gathered at the rest stop, about twenty in total, a mix of n and won, old and young, all huddled in the restaurant.
The original staff of the service area was nowhere to be seen.
When Shen MO pushed in the wheelchair, all eyes turned towards the door.
Seeing it was just a man and a disabled girl, their faces fell in disappointnt. Ever since the world was thrown into chaos, people had been waiting for
redemption. Whether it was the assistance from governnt organisations or
the salvation espoused by religious groups, anything would do. Even as little as
a light in the dark was better than the confusion and despair of not seeing any
hope.
Shen MO glanced at the people in the restaurant. Sensing the gloomy atmosphere of the rest stop, he pushed Bai Youwei into the nearby supermarket.
The shelves in the supermarket had been mostly cleared out. They found an electrical outlet and began to charge the bunny.
Even though the charging set was low-end, it utilized high-tech charging thods. All they needed to do was place the fluffy rabbit near the socket to charge it. No plug or direct contact necessary.
They had no idea when it would be fully charged.
This thing didn’t give a percentage like most electronics; its charge depended entirely on the user’s perception. Bai Youwei tried to gauge it for quite a while but couldn’t figure it out.
“Describe it,” Shen MO said.
Bai Youwei asked him, “Do you have a swimming pool at ho?”
Shen Mo: “Why?”
Bai Youwei: “It feels like using a thin hose to fill up a swimming pool. Can you guess when it will be full?”
Shen Mo: ‘
Well, that’s one vivid way to describe it.
Charging was slow. Bai Youwei, impatient, picked up the bunny and stated her need to use the restroom.
She hated being subject to such physiological needs.
The folding cane needed to be hung on the side of the wheelchair, toilet paper and wet wipes stored in a cloth pocket on the other side. If there was no accessible toilet, they would also need to carry a small stool.
Shen MO wheeled Bai Youwei to the bathroom, comnting, “This is the first ti in my life that I’ve been in a won’s restroom.”
Bai Youwei gave a chilling retort, “You’re just entering the won’s restroom. It’s not like I asked you to pull down a woman’s pants.”
Having said that, she thought about the past when not just using the restroom, but bathing, massages and such were all taken care of by a nurse or nanny. Now, she had to rely on a man she hardly knew.
She felt a surge of disgust. Disgust at Shen MO, but even more so at herself.
“But pulling down a woman’s pants should be sothing you’re quite familiar with.” Her mood worsened, and her tone beca more abrasive.
Shen MO rely gave her a sideways glance.
As for pulling down a woman’s pants, this was indeed his first ti.
But arguing over it would simply be immature.
He knew well of Bai Youwei’s unpredictable mood swings. The mont anything touched on her sensitivities, she would turn aggressive, sharp as a porcupine.
He couldn’t help but feel amused. Such a soft, cute face trying to put up a fierce front, like a kitten puffing up its fur.
Shen MO, holding back his laughter, pushed the wheelchair into a relatively clean stall, and asked Bai Youwei, “Do you want to sit or stand to remove your pants?”
Bai Youwei, clenching her jaw, reluctantly took out a pack from the side pocket and shoved it into Shen Mo’s hand.
“Put this on.” She commanded with the haughty air of a queen.
Shen MO unwrapped the package, revealing a disposable toilet seat cover. She must have always carried these whenever she went out.
He bent down to place the cover, only to turn around and find that Bai Youwei was already standing with the aid of her cane.
She looked strained, small beads of sweat glistening on the tip of her nose.
“Are you sure you don’t need my help?” Shen MO eyed her.
Bai Youwei shot him a look, “Go stand by the door and don’t let anyone in!”
Shen MO asked, “Even won?”
She imdiately reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, her voice cold and sharp.
“Exactly! Won too! Anyone coming in will disrupt my bodily functions! Do I trouble you? Too late to complain now! Grin and bear it! If it weren’t for your insistence on dragging along, I wouldn’t have to use the restroom in such a disgusting place!”
She marched into the stall using her cane and slamd the door shut.
She was being extrely rude and unreasonable..
