Watching the food she had been reluctant to eat, intending to save for last, fall to the ground, Miss Cat’s expression gradually filled with grievance.
She looked at Su Li with a hint of sadness, but Miss Cat quickly forced out a strained smile.
The stout figure who had accidentally bumped into Miss Cat glanced at the fallen meat and scattered Cat Food on the floor, then looked at the frail Miss Cat sitting on the bed with some curiosity.
It was the first time she had ever seen someone eating Cat Food.
And judging by the price of this Cat Food, it wasn’t even good quality.
“It’s just Cat Food. What’s there to stare at?”
She said that and didn’t want to bother with this strange person any longer, turning to walk out of the room.
“This is very important to me.”
Miss Cat said stubbornly, her gaze fixed tightly on the bulky figure in the distance who looked like Dafeizhu.
To her, the other person appeared like a monstrous behemoth blocking out the sky and sun, and her heart was faintly tense.
“Seriously, you could buy this Cat Food with a little money anytime. I’m starting to think you’re deliberately trying to cause trouble and pick a fight with me. And who in their right mind eats Cat Food?”
Dafeizhu said with disdain, as if just being in the same ward as someone like this would affect her own health.
“That’s not it. I didn’t mean to pick a fight with you.”
Miss Cat whispered with a few traces of grievance.
Dafeizhu came closer, her bulky frame immediately blocking out the sunlight streaming through the window.
She threw two hundred yuan in cash at Miss Cat.
“Take this money and get lost.”
With that, she turned and started to leave.
Miss Cat wanted to stand up and return the money, but a look of disgust appeared on Dafeizhu’s face.
The onlookers nearby all turned their eyes toward her, and her cheeks flushed red as she lowered her head nervously.
Dafeizhu was so far away that it was difficult for Miss Cat even to hand the money back.
“She’s a patient, can’t you see she’s hooked up to an infusion?”
“So what if you have money? Why don’t you go to a Private Hospital? There are plenty of spots there. Why do you have to squeeze in here and bother everyone else?”
“Two hundred yuan? Who are you looking down on? Give me the Collection Code. I’ll pay double, apologize to her, then you take your five bucks and get out of here. Don’t block our way.”
Su Li’s voice was calm but loud, attracting the attention of the surrounding crowd.
It was easy for her to show anger.
Usually, normal people wouldn’t dare to cause such a scene for fear of embarrassment or trouble, choosing instead to tolerate for the sake of peace.
So in public places, most people suppress their tempers.
But Su Li didn’t care; she said what needed to be said unless someone paid her enough to keep quiet.
And even then, it had to be a price worth her while.
The bulky figure suddenly stopped in her tracks upon hearing Su Li’s voice, her massive body trembling slightly.
Surprise and disbelief flashed in her eyes.
Her arrogant aura instantly collapsed.
Even speaking became hesitant and stammering.
After struggling to say something inaudible to Su Li, she quickly fled the Infusion Hall.
She didn’t even take the two hundred yuan cash with her.
Miss Cat watched Dafeizhu’s retreating back. The faint sunlight outside shone on her as she held the two bills, wanting to call out to the other person.
But Dafeizhu fled so fast, like a rat escaping through a gutter, that she disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.
Su Li wanted Miss Cat to keep the money, but Miss Cat shook her little head vigorously.
Su Li didn’t insist and simply pocketed the money herself.
At this moment, Miss Cat looked at the spilled Cat Food and meat on the floor, wanting to pick them up, but Su Li stopped her in advance.
“Food that’s fallen on the ground can’t be eaten anymore.”
Seeing Miss Cat still wanting to say something, Su Li continued,
“Even if it hasn’t been on the ground for more than three seconds, it still can’t be eaten.”
Su Li added this, and after a brief moment staring at the food, Miss Cat finally lowered her gaze.
“Do you still want to eat the Cat Food?”
Miss Cat obediently nodded.
“Then I’ll take you to buy some later.”
Miss Cat quickly nodded, the grievance on her face swept away, replaced with joy as she looked at Su Li.
……
The bulky figure escaped to a deserted corner and slowly collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
Her back was already drenched in sweat, and even sitting on the floor, she looked like a massive pillar.
How could she not recognize Su Li’s voice?
Every moment of free time was accompanied by Su Li’s voice.
This voice, engraved deep in her bones, was unmistakable.
Even online chatting, Su Li had never spoken so coldly, but just hearing the voice told her it was her baby.
Her baby was breathtakingly beautiful, far more so than she ever was.
In comparison, she looked pitifully inferior.
Together, they looked like a Beauty and the Beast remake.
She had come to the hospital today to ask if she could stop taking her medication.
Because after the Yuyu Syndrome manifested somatically and led to binge eating, the medication—probably containing hormones—had caused her rapid weight gain.
Unexpectedly, she ran into the baby she had been longing for day and night.
Even now, her heart still pounded nervously.
But when she thought of how caring her baby was toward others, jealousy flared inside Xiao Yuyu’s heart.
Who was that person to her?
Why did the baby care so much for that person?
She had recognized the baby’s voice, but why hadn’t the baby recognized hers?
And the baby was so harsh to her…
Xiao Yuyu completely forgot that she had used a voice changer when playing games with Su Li.
Su Li was so close to the other girl but so cold to her.
Her own hasty escape made her look like a clown.
Thinking about what had just happened, Xiao Yuyu grew angrier and angrier.
She immediately took out her Cell Phone and frantically sent messages to Su Li.
【Log in!】
【Log in!】
【Log in!】
【……】
After Miss Cat finished her infusion and cleaned the food container in her hands, Su Li was about to take her to buy Cat Food, when her Cell Phone started vibrating wildly.
Without looking, she knew exactly who it was.
This client was always like this.
Whenever she got hooked, she would immediately demand you log in.
No matter when, no matter where, no matter what you were doing.
If you didn’t reply, she would keep sending the same messages repeatedly.
The deal with Xiao Yuyu didn’t bring any income from just chatting.
So Su Li rarely replied.
Only before playing Companion Play with her at night would she check and reply all at once.
Su Li refused to be freeloaded.
