The kitchen was so small and empty, with practically no ingredients. It was worlds apart from her family’s kitchen.
However, everything was arranged neatly and it was especially clean. It also contained all the necessary kitchen utensils; they might be of slightly poorer quality, but no one would disdain them.
There was a bowl of cold porridge on the chopping board, probably ladled out earlier for Zhao Xiaoyu to eat.
Lu An searched carefully and took out some red dates, which was the only thing she could find.
Fortunately, she had bought some fruits earlier, which she could use. Paired with the porridge, it was just passable.
Lu An poured a glass of brown sugar water for Zhao Xiaoyu. Then, she quickly peeled and diced the fruit, and peeled the red dates and removed the cores.
She put them into the porridge and added a little bit of the medicine which she always carried on her. It was mainly used to replenish blood because her body used to be especially weak and extremely anemic.
After everything was prepared, Lu An started to simmer the porridge.
Zhao Shuangping and his wife were already so flustered they didn’t know what to do. Outside, the ambulance had arrived.
“If you trust me, I’ll cook the porridge and send it to Sister Xiaoyu. Or, you can wait at home for it to be done. Just stir it like this…”
“We trust you, we trust you. Thank you, thank you!”
Before Lu An could finish speaking, the woman’s face was covered in tears again. She held Lu An’s hand tightly and was indescribably grateful.
Lu An was stumped. In the end, she couldn’t help but think it odd; they were clearly parents who loved their daughter so much, so why did they say that on Weibo? Perhaps…
…
About an hour later, Lu An finished making the porridge.
In any case, Zhao Xiaoyu would probably need to undergo treatment for a while at the hospital. Lu An directly made up for the lack of ingredients, and also bought an insulated food container for the porridge.
Once everything was ready, Lu An locked the door and went outside to hail a taxi.
The streets were crowded with people and cars.
But perhaps because this was a poorer neighborhood, other than private cars and public transport, few taxis passed through here.
Lu An blinked her eyes and looked around. She took out her phone and was about to book a taxi, when suddenly…
A very flashy red car stopped in front of her.
The man in the driver’s seat was dressed like a butterfly and was wearing an auntie’s headscarf which practically covered his entire face. He narrowed his eyes and smiled at her. “Little girl, want a ride? For 10 yuan, I’ll take you wherever you need to go!”
It was a pleasant voice, but had a simpering tone to it; it was clear from the smile in those eyes that this person was up to no good.
“Okay~ to Mingxin Hospital. Please hurry!”
Lu An smiled sweetly and replied in a similar tone, before she pulled open the door and got into the car.
She wasn’t in a hurry to buckle her seatbelt. She first carefully placed the bag with the food container and the fruits that she had prepared on the side.
Next to her, the man’s gaze gradually turned cold.
Heh! Sure enough, she was a gold digger and white lotus. She clearly knew that the other party had ill intentions, but she still dared to get into the car!
A certain third brother was extremely disdainful as he turned the steering wheel. Suddenly, there was a gloomy chill next to him!
The little girl, who had been smiling just a moment ago, now gave off a sinister air, her eyes filled with frost. She placed fair fingers between his legs and drew closer to his face. She warned him in a low voice, “You don’t look like a good person, but I don’t want to waste time. If you dare play tricks on me —
“I’ll twist it off!”
She lowered her eyes and glanced at a certain body part. Her voice turned increasingly sinister, like that of a demon!
A certain third brother was suddenly alarmed and almost pissed his pants! Sh- sh*t!
