When Xu Xuan heard this, she turned to Lu Qing and threw him a look filled with hate.

“That’s mine!” she choked on a half-sob. “Give it back!”

Lu Qing’s upper lip twisted in mockery. At last, he tossed the bracelet over to them like it was some piece of trash. It landed with a loud snapping sound, then slid toward Xu Xuan’s feet.

She immediately plucked it from the floor and blew the dust particles that stuck between its chain.

She had managed to retrieve her purse along with her clothes, and she wasted no time tucking the bracelet in its innermost pocket.

Xu Xuan heaved a long sigh of relief at the knowledge that her bracelet was now safely back in her possession.

But that didn’t mean that her problems were over. She checked on her grandmother, who still hadn’t woken up yet.

She didn’t even know the exact condition of the old woman’s body. Was she going to survive this ordeal? Would there be any lasting side effects?

With such alarming thoughts, Xu Xuancarefully positioned her grandmother so that she could carry the latter on her back. She said a brief but sincere thank you to bothYao TangandQin Jingand made to leave.

She had barely taken five steps forward when Yao Tangcalled out to her. “It should be a problem with her lungs, right? Once she gets an attack, her breathing gets rough and her body grows weak. If she doesn’t take her pills on time, she would faint and might even die. Am I correct?”

Sure enough, Grandma Xu did suffer all of the symptoms Yao Tanghad cited.

Xu Xuan was shocked by this, and it took her a moment to come to her senses and answerYao Tang. “You are indeed correct.”

“I have a way to treat her illness,” Yao Tangsaid lightly.

Xu Xuan heard a buzzing in her brain. Reason dictated that this wasn’t possible at all, but her intuition was telling her that there truly was hope for her grandmother’s cure.

“Do you really mean that?” she asked in earnest as she walked back to the two girls.

Her voice trembled with fear and antic.i.p.ation.

Surely, no teenage girl would be able to treat an ailment that challenged even professionals. But then again, the girl in question was Yao Tang, and she had defied people’s expectations more times than they dared to count.

She looked at Xu Xuannow, her expression neutral. “Of course. But I have one condition.”

“Yes, of course, just name it!” Xu Xuanexclaimed without hesitation. “Just cure my grandmother, and I will do my best to fulfill whatever terms you set.”

A hint of surprise flashed in Yao Tang’s eyes, but it was gone in the next second.

She hadn’t expected Xu Xuanto agree so readily.

She looked the other girl in the eye and spoke slowly. “I want the bracelet.” Her tone was blunt, and the words fell heavy in the air between them.

Xu Xuan was naturally taken aback by this condition, but she didn’t have to think twice about her decision.

“Yes. You can have it as long as you treat Grandma.”

Just like that, she had sealed her grandmother’s fate and put it in the hands of Yao Tang, a girl who was just about the same age as her.

Xu Xuan had no regrets, though. If she had to choose between Grandma Xu and the bracelet, she would obviously choose the former.

Grandma Xu had raised her, after all, and she was the only family Xu Xuanhad left.

“You can bring your grandmother over to our private room.”

“Okay!”

Only then did Xu Xuanrealize that her grandmother wasn’t suited for a b.u.mpy ride to the hospital. It was better to have her stay and recuperate for a while.

It seemed like the events of the day had taken a toll on her; her mind was a mess.

She was lucky to have run into Yao Tangat just the right moment.

The girls shuffled back into the other private room, where they carefully lay Grandma Xu on the sofa. The old woman’s looked a little better than before, and color was starting to return to her cheeks.

Just then, a waiter knocked on the door and let himself in. He proceeded to set a tray of snacks on the table.

“We didn’t order that,” Qin Jingremarked, puzzled.

Equally confused, the waiter glanced at Xu Xuanand said respectfully, “The customer next door asked us to deliver this for you. He says that it is a congratulatory gift.”

Qin Jing’s expression turned terrible after hearing that. But the waiter was merely a messenger, so she bit her anger back and didn’t lash out at him.

Instead, she said, “Kindly ask that person to come over himself. Tell him we would like to thank him personally for his generosity.”

“Of course, Miss.” The waiter bowed and left.

Shortly after, there came another knock on their door. Before Qin Jingcould even say anything, their guest barged into the room.

Lu Qing looked around their private room as if he were some king surveying his kingdom. His gaze landed onYao Tangand stayed on her.

He opened his mouth to speak when a piece of cake sailed through the air, aimed right at his face.

Lu Qing’s playful demeanor vanished, and his lips curled into a sneer.
