“Lin Wei?” Ming Shu showed the paper to Lin Wei, which blocked half of her face, revealing only a pair of smiling eyes.
Lin Wei nodded and asked with a smile, “Yes, it’s me... Are you Brother Ziqing’s friend?”
“... I’m his girlfriend.” Ming Shu threw away the paper and showed her good-looking face. “Your Brother Ziqing told you to go back and never show your face again.”
Lin Wei’s face suddenly paled. “No, it’s not possible... how would Brother Ziqing... I am his... no, you’re Su Man! You’re his cousin, I met you before. I know everyone in his family, don’t you want to trick me!”
She wouldn’t recognize this face wrongly.
Lin Wei became a little excited as she talked.
“Brother Ziqing told you to lie to me, didn’t he?”
“...”
She knew she was not unfamiliar with this name. Two years ago, when she and her cousin came back to their grandpa’s house in the neighboring city, she heard others talking about Lin Wei and Cousin. But the Host didn’t meet Lin Wei in person.
Probably Lin Wei knew her. After all, her pictures were spread all over the Internet, and it would be hard for her not to recognize her.
Cousin, this is not my fault
It’s because little girl who travelled a long way to meet you was too powerful.
“I’m just trying to do what Cousin asked.” Ming Shu immediately sold out her cousin when she was exposed. “He doesn’t want to meet you. So... don’t give me a hard time, just take a train back.”
“Good cousin.” Lin Wei swiftly pulled on Ming Shu’s arm. “What did Brother Ziqing promise to you, I’ll promise double.”
“Well... he said he’ll buy me snacks.”
“I’ll buy you double the snacks!” Lin Wei made eyes at Ming Shu. “No, triple.”
Ming Shu was a little unwilling. She had made a deal with her cousin first, so perhaps she ought to knock her out and send her back with the next train.
Lin Wei made up her mind. “I’ll buy all your snacks!”
“Deal!” Snacks are justice.
Lin Wei’s mouth twitched. Why did she have a bad feeling for a moment there?
Ming Shu took Lin Wei to get her car while listening to the latter boasting about stories with Cousin.
This cousin lived with Grandpa in his childhood. Lin Wei was the granddaughter of their grandpa’s neighbor. But because of the difference in age, when Lin Wei was in kindergarten, Cousin had been in primary school.
It was said that Cousin treated her very well in their childhood. He always tried his best to meet her requests and please her—but soon Ming Shu knew that Lin Wei was just bragging. Cousin didn’t care about her at all.
Lin Wei said that after junior high, Cousin transferred to another school in this city. But he promised that he would go back and marry her. But then, gradually, as they grew older, Cousin became stranger and stranger and now he didn’t want to talk to her anymore.
Hence, Lin Wei intended to come here to win him back.
“I suspect that Cousin is gay.” Ming Shu smiled at Lin Wei with bad intentions.
Lin Wei was stunned. “You... don’t scare me. I don’t want to go to Thailand for a sex change.”
“...” Should her first reaction be like this?
“Is he really gay?” Lin Wei was unwilling to give up.
But before Ming Shu answered, Lin Wei gritted her teeth and said, “If he really is... I... I... I’ll go change my sex!”
Squeak...
The car suddenly stopped, and the inertia made Lin Wei’s body move forward fiercely. If it weren’t for the seatbelt, she would have hit the front glass.
“What are you doing...” Lin Wei was scared and patted her chest uneasily.
“Help... help...” Someone began to hit the car window ferociously. Lin Wei looked outside; it was a little girl with reddened eyes.
“What is she doing...” Lin Wei continued patting her own chest and turned to Ming Shu. “Cousin, do your city people like playing this way?”
“Are you not a city person? Where are you from, Mars?”
“I’m from Ziqing’s family.”
She just couldn’t continue her conversation without mentioning Cousin. Ming Shu felt that it would be great choice for Cousin to marry her. That fool really needed someone like this to control him.
“Help, help me!”
“Let go of me. I don’t know them, I really don’t know them, help me!” The little girl struggled with all her strength and the scene soon attracted many onlookers.
The person who pulled on the little girl explained in apology, “Sorry, we’ve looked for her for several days. She has some mental issues.”
The little girl shook her head in tears and asked for help, “I don’t have any issues, I’m totally fine, and I don’t know them. Let go of me... let go!”
The little girl outside had been surrounded by several people in doctors’ coats, and they pulled her hand, trying to get her onto a nearby minibus.
The minibus was very old, stained with mud all over the exterior, and it seemed to have travelled a long way. It could be vaguely seen on the vehicle several printed words like “xx mental hospital.”
Those people in doctors’ clothing were all in their 30s or 40s, and you just couldn’t tell they were doctors or nurses. It looked like they were some people wearing some stolen clothes which did not fit them at all.
Lin Wei fixed her eyes on the scene. “Cousin... what are they doing? Has a patient escaped from the mental hospital?”
Ming Shu glanced at the little girl outside and shut off the engine to get out. “It’s a kidnapping.”
“Ah?” Lin Wei hurried to follow Ming Shu out.
Ming Shu didn’t go up immediately after she got off the car; instead she took out her phone and opened the livestream.
“Hi guys, today I’m going to show you approaching science.” Ming Shu handed the phone to Lin Wei. “Hold it.”
Lin Wei stared at the livestream interface and didn’t react until a long while later. Then she quickly caught up with Ming Shu.
Ming Shu pushed through the crowd of onlookers. She pulled on the little girl’s hand and lifted a foot to kick the nearest person in white.
Seeing someone came to stop them, the other people in doctors’ clothing weren’t angry and they tried to persuade Ming Shu with kind words. “This little girl has some mental issues, and we’re trying to take her back to the hospital. Would you please not to interfere with our work, lady?”
Ming Shu gave another kick without saying anything. The one who was dragging the little girl didn’t intend to release her, but Ming Shu used plenty of strength and he had to release the girl.
The girl immediately hid behind Ming Shu in tears. “I don’t know them. I really don’t know them.”
The people in doctors’ clothing looked at each other with pale faces.
In broad daylight, they didn’t dare to grab people directly, so they threatened, “She has a serious mental illness and when she goes crazy, she might hurt you.”
As soon as the surrounding onlookers heard that the girl might hurt people, they stepped back, watching the scene indifferently. Some of them even took out their phones and began to record a video, but no one was willing to go up in person and figure out the truth.
Just at this time, several people suddenly rushed into the crowd and one middle-aged woman among them directly rushed at Ming Shu, yelling and crying. “My daughter! Wuwuwu... where have you been these days? I’ve looked for you for so many days. Don’t be afraid, we’ll cure your illness, come, come home with mom.”
Ming Shu pulled the little girl and moved aside, avoiding contact with the middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged woman didn’t touch the little girl and she immediately roared, “Who are you, let go of my daughter! What do you want to do to her!”
“Let go of my niece.”
“Right, let go quickly. She is mentally unstable, if something bad happens, can you afford to be responsible?”
Other people together with the middle-aged woman approached Ming Shu step by step simultaneously. They kept talking one after another and didn’t give Ming Shu any chance to talk back.
Ming Shu looked at them smilingly, then gave a sudden kick to the nearest one.
As she took action, the others immediately began to rush toward her and the little girl while yelling, trying to take back the little girl.
