Chapter 258: Chapter 251 This Kid Really Has a Sharp Tongue
“You’re talking nonsense,” Tang Zhinian immediately stepped in front of his daughter, “My Yuxin is a good child, not some kind of demon. She will become a doctor in the future, dedicated to healing people.”
As Tang Zhinian protectively guarded Tang Yuxin like a calf, she peered out from behind him and made a grimace at the woman.
The woman immediately rolled her eyes and fainted.
This was surely from the anger caused by Tang Yuxin.
“What happened? She was fine just a moment ago.” Tang Zhinian quickly supported her, pressing on her pressure points and patting her face.
“Yuxin,” Tang Zhinian looked at his daughter pleadingly.
“Come over and see.”
Tang Yuxin lazily walked out, but when she returned, she was carrying a needle pack. She placed the pack on her lap, took the woman’s finger, and with a slight tremble of the needle tip, inserted it into the woman’s finger. After removing the needle, a drop of black blood fell from the tip of the woman’s finger.
Not long after, the woman gradually regained consciousness. Her eyes seemed clearer, and it was as if she had suddenly seen the light. The things she previously couldn’t understand suddenly made sense.
She breathed calmly, gazing at the father-daughter duo, then chuckled weakly.
“Thank you,”
Tang Yuxin retrieved her silver needle and stood aside, “Don’t thank me. If my dad didn’t want to save you, why would I care whether you lived or died?”
The way she spoke wasn’t very pleasant, her words were so toxic.
The woman averted her eyes embarrassedly. In reality, she hadn’t done anything wrong. She had just woken up to find a man touching her and had mistakenly assumed he intended to do something harmful. It wasn’t until later that she realized he was merely trying to help her.
It simply stung her pride too much.
Then, without knowing why, she started feeling groggy and foggy as if she had been covered in a haze. The intense pain that emanated from her fingertip woke her up, her mind cleared up, and even her heart comprehended many things.
“My daughter is like this, don’t take it to heart,” Tang Zhinian hurriedly explained, “She’s a bit wary around strangers. But it’s not like I really know how to put it… you’ve consumed many of her precious medicines. She might be regretting it.”
Hearing this, the woman felt even more guilty.
Though they were strangers, they still went to great lengths to save her.
How would she repay them in this lifetime?
Only now, when her thoughts had cleared and her mind stabilized, did she realize the foolishness of her actions. If she had died, thrown herself into a bloody mess, it would’ve only pleased that despicable person, and nobody would’ve grieved for her.
“Alright, you must be hungry, right?” Tang Zhinian’s smile remained honest as he brought the meals from the kitchen and set them on the table, then handed the chopsticks to the woman.
“You can eat now.”
The woman picked up the chopsticks, and her stomach grumbled. She swallowed, indeed, she was very hungry. But as soon as she lifted the chopsticks, her hands shook and the sticks fell onto the table.
“It’s fine,” Tang Zhinian picked up the chopsticks from the ground and placed them aside. He brought a bowl and placed it in front of the woman.
“Come on, eat.”
The woman moved her almost colourless lips, her stomach still rumbling. Suddenly, she began eating in obedience.
Meanwhile, Tang Yuxin stood at the bottom of the building, staring at it for a long time.
She honestly didn’t know whether bringing this woman home by her father was a good or bad thing. After all, many things have slipped out of her control. She is a human, not a god.
Who can foresee future developments?
All she needed to know was that the woman wasn’t currently dangerous. Everything else could wait.
She would wait for time to give her the answer and for fate to set its course.
Early in the morning, as the outside world was still mildly dark, Lin Yile woke up. She carefully sat up and started to get dressed.
So early again. But as she moved, Xu Miaomiao also woke up.
“Miaomiao, do you want to join us?”
Lin Yile asked Xu Miaomiao in a low voice.
“No, I don’t,” Xu Miaomiao stretched her hand out from under the quilt and shook her head, “I’d rather not go.” She covered her head with the quilt. Sleeping was much better than learning from you and that monster Tang.
The ‘monster Tang’ she referred to was Tang Yuxin.
Calling her a monster was quite accurate. They, ordinary people, couldn’t even comprehend Tang Yuxin’s various skills and her endless energy.
She didn’t care about ordinary exams and didn’t need to worry about her grades. Tang Yuxin also possessed a strong, impressive stamina that allowed her to rise early in the morning and stay up late at night.
But she was an ordinary person who needed sleep. She couldn’t handle such a heavy load of life and academic pressure.
Meanwhile, as she daydreamed, Lin Yile had already dressed and tidied herself. She carefully opened the door, and saw that the sky was still dim, and Tang Yuxin was already standing outside.
At this moment, she stood facing the east, seemingly merging with nature.
She was a tree, a stone, an observer.
She had stood there for countless years, quietly experiencing the shifts of day and night, the transformation of seas into mulberry fields.
“Let’s go,” Tang Yuxin turned around and saw Lin Yile had already arrived. She gave a smile, then, leading her along the outskirt road, began to jog. At this time, there were few cars or people outside. Those people were probably either going to or returning from work or street cleaners. Twenty minutes later, they arrived at a quiet grove, where the sun’s early light was slowly returning to the earth, waiting to break through the clouds and usher in a clear day.
Tang Yuxin stood in the front with Lin Yile standing beside her.
At this moment, they moved harmoniously. Half a month had passed, and Lin Yile had become comfortable with these movements. Her actions were now delivered with spirit and form.
After the morning exercise, their breakfast was already prepared by Mrs. Xu.
Lin Yile felt really hungry, her stomach was rumbling with hunger. When she received her bowl, she picked up the chopsticks and began stuffing food into her mouth right away.
