411: Chapter 209: Solo Path 1v1 Extre Tug-of-War 411: Chapter 209: Solo Path 1v1 Extre Tug-of-War Where did Jiang Xiaotang and the others go yesterday?
Seeing her sleeping now and unable to wake up anyti soon, Li Mumu, though curious, couldn’t ask her.
However, she soon realized another problem.
How could she afford a private hospital room?
Her identity…
As Li Mumu was filled with doubt, soone behind her asked, “Are you a relative of the patient?”
Li Mumu turned her head sharply and saw one of the nuns who had been standing at the girl’s door approaching with an expressionless face.
How should she answer at this mont?
Should she go along with the nun’s assumption, or tell the truth?
Li Mumu hesitated for a second and decisively lifted the fruit can in her hand with a smile, “I’m Jiang Xiaotang’s classmate.
I heard she was hospitalized here, so I ca to visit her.”
“Who told you that?”
This sister seems to be soone who cares about the details.
Li Mumu’s eyes shifted, “I heard it from the principal.”
“Principal Chen?”
“Who is Principal Chen?
Our principal’s last na is Zhou!”
Seeing that Li Mumu could respond without hesitation and without fault, the nun nodded slightly and said in a cold voice, “She needs to rest well now, please don’t disturb her.”
“Uh…
Okay!”
Li Mumu quickly nodded, “Then sister, do you know where my other classmates are staying?”
“You’re looking for Wang…”
“Wang Yunxiao!”
“Room 416 upstairs.”
“Okay, thank you, sister!”
People who are sweet talkers usually don’t have too bad luck.
Seeing that Li Mumu could accurately na Jiang Xiaotang and Wang Yunxiao, the nun finally let down her guard.
However, she still watched her climb the stairs before returning to her original post.
These nuns are not easy to deal with.
Before, Li Mumu had heard from Sister Zuo Yan that Tiann City’s only legally recognized Western sect, the Qianjin Church, had nuns with wills as firm as steel and exceptional strength.
They were also the only legally ard force in Tiann City besides the official ones, and one should avoid provoking them if not necessary.
…
Wang Yunxiao has a private room, too?
Why did Li Mumu co here?
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the atmosphere between them instantly fell into an awkward silence.
Both questions appeared in their minds simultaneously, and then they didn’t know how to start the conversation.
Should I explain first, or should I question first?
Wang Yunxiao weighed this question rapidly in his mind and cleared his throat before asking, “Has your condition improved?”
What condition?
Li Mumu almost didn’t catch on, pausing for a second before realizing what Wang Yunxiao was referring to.
It must be the ti shortly after she got her flesh body back when the main personality hadn’t co online, and the backup personality had to be activated in an ergency.
“Yeah, I suddenly felt clear-headed when I woke up.
Thank you for taking care of during that ti.”
Li Mumu spoke sincerely, “Thanks to you, otherwise I would have been in real trouble.
I might have been sold off to so remote mountain, just thinking about it scares .”
“It’s a trifle, hardly worth ntioning.”
Wang Yunxiao spoke with righteous indignation, “When I first t you, I found the attitude of your family towards you a bit strange.
Knowing you were sick, how could they let you wander around alone?
So for safety’s sake, I contacted the school to inform your parents…”
“I rember all of that.”
Li Mumu nodded, “The situation in my family is…
quite complicated.
You know my dad is working outside all the ti and can’t take care of ho.
My mom…
she has a strong preference for sons over daughters.”
“Ah?”
Wang Yunxiao was very surprised.
“Wendy is my half-sister from the sa mother.
My mom was already six months pregnant when she married my dad.”
“Ah?”
Your dad is that open-minded?
Wang Yunxiao felt his world shaking, but on second thought, Boss Mu did seem to have a rather calm, or one might say introverted, personality.
Maybe he really didn’t mind.
“My mom has a bit of a hereditary family illness, she’s not quite ntally stable.
After having two girls consecutively, her ntal state beca even more unstable.”
Li Mumu seriously made things up on the fly, “You mustn’t tell anyone what I’ve told you!”
“Of course, I wouldn’t talk about your family’s private matters with others.”
Wang Yunxiao solemnly promised.
“Actually, I inherited my illness from my mom, and I could manage it with dication.
But she’s pregnant again recently and has beco especially sensitive and anxious, constantly feeling like soone is out to harm her.
She not only stopped taking her ds but also hid mine.”
Li Mumu sighed, “With a mother like that, what can I do?”
“That is indeed too much.
But after all, she is your mother, a pregnant woman, and a patient, there’s no need to take it to heart.”
Wang Yunxiao said earnestly, “At least the school is a safe place, and our school doctor is pretty good.
You could prepare a spare set of your regular dication to keep there, so it could be of help if this situation arises again.”
“Alright, I’ll do as you say.”
Li Mumu held her cheeks in her hands, displaying an obedient and sweet smile.
My story is all made up, now it’s your turn.
Wang Yunxiao, aren’t you going to explain how both you and Jiang Xiaotang can afford private rooms at the hospital?
New Asia Hospital is a private institution, not sowhere loafers like you can afford to stay at.
She said she’d listen to ?
Listen to everything?
These words couldn’t help but lead Wang Yunxiao’s thoughts astray.
But the pressing issue at hand was to co up with an explanation.
Should he just tell her about the work he and his brothers were doing now?
Actually, there was no real need for secrecy about it.
Wang Yunxiao was mainly worried that Eldest Miss Li would beco curious and then make so risky requests that he couldn’t refuse.
We’re all from poor families, and we do this dangerous job to make a living.
Miss Li, you’re so delicate and also have ntal issues; there’s really no need for you to join us in living on the edge.
Maybe it’s better to tell her later.
After all, she’s going to attend school here next sester, and she might even be in the sa class.
Secrets like these can’t be kept forever; she will find out sooner or later.
There’s no rush at this mont.
With this thought, Wang Yunxiao slowly said, “Actually, there’s sothing you might have misunderstood.
My brothers and I aren’t really street loafers.”
“Oh?”
Li Mumu thought to herself, sure enough, I knew there was sothing off about you!
“My dad used to be an engineer in the naval logistics departnt, so I’d like to think I’m sort of a military brat, and my brothers are the sa.
We all had complete families and happy childhoods.
It’s just that due to the war two years ago, we beca orphans wandering the streets.”
