230 Would He Care? (1/2)

”There is no use crying. No one can help you but yourself.” A slightly chilly voice sounded behind her. She looked back and wondered when Shen Wei had appeared behind her. She would always come and go like a shadow and say things at the most appropriate time. This time, her words might sting, but she spoke the truth.

She leaned against the door, her arms folded together. A memory from long ago flashed past her eyes.

”Shen…” Xia Ruoxin was suddenly at a loss. She did not know how to address the woman.

”You can call me by my name.” Shen Wei straightened herself and walked out, but after a few steps, she stopped. She simply said, ”Go touch up your makeup. You're doing it right by learning to be smarter. It will save you from suffering.”

With that, Xia Ruoxin watched Shen Wei walked out as her lips quivered.

The words 'Thank you' were choked at her throat, and she did not know how to say it.

She wiped her tears from her face and forced herself to smile. That's right. She mustn't cry. Smile. She's not Xia Ruoxin. She was only a lowly hostess with no dignity. She didn't need it, only money for her doctor's medical fees.

As she walked out once again, she was deeply aware that she needed to tolerate more.

When she returned to the hospital, she could see a small silhouette sitting alone at the steps from afar. Rainy was holding her doll as she looked ahead constantly. The instant she saw her, she stood up hurriedly and ran towards her.

”Mommy.”

Xia Ruoxin quickly bent her waist and scooped her daughter up.
