Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

The youth spoke to her the entire time with an expression that serious lecturers would use solemnly. She told her about the after-effects of not getting that injection.

Shen Qianshu stared in shock and mumbled to herself. “You are really a doctor?”

You look like you’re from a freaking cult.

“Replacement guaranteed if not genuine,” Maxi said.

“You’re underage?”

“Yes. Still young. Pardon me.”

“You aren’t cute at all,” Shen Qianshu said. “Girl’s should be adorable. Then, they can be lovable.”

“There is no such girl in the world who is intelligent, good at combat skills, can fly an airplane, and can do an operation, yet still remain cute and adorable. If you know any girl like that, please introduce her to me,” Maxi said expressionlessly. “What’s more, I am very lovable. I already have arranged an underage marriage.”

“… ” Shen Qianshu looked at her.

“Yeah. For a girl so not adorable like you, only arranged child marriage can save you.”

“Yeah. I win at the starting point. Luckily, my future husband is very picky. He only likes my type.”

“A little blind.”

“Indeed, a little,” Maxi said. “Even if we share the same enemy, I wouldn’t give up on trying to inject this into you, you know that?”

Shen Qianshu took a deep breath. She had an impulse to throw her out.

She looked at the sharp needle and felt a little confused. She also felt really strange.

The youth really looked harmless.

Is this really for my fever?

“Give me the prescription manual.” Shen Qianshu reached her arm out to ask for the manual.

The youth handed two bottles to her. “You just saw me drawing the medicine from these bottles. They’re all in French. Do you even know how to read it?”

Shen Qianshu replied. “Sorry, French is my second language.”

“Ok then!”

Indeed, it was medicine for fever.

“Why do I need an injection? Can’t I just take some medicine?”

“Injections help you recover faster. Miss Shen, you’re like a child. You refuse to get an injection,” the youth said. “You need an injection when you have the flu. Taking medicine helps you recover but very slowly.”

Shen Qianshu felt that she could deal with it. In such an unfamiliar place, she did not dare to trust strangers. She also did not know who exactly Maxi was. Even if she did, she was also very vigilant. She refused to get the injection and insisted on getting by like this.

Maxi had no choice but to bring out a box of flu medicine.

“Flu medicine. Take it,” Maxi said. “If you are so scared, then don’t even eat the meals.”

She did not object to taking the medicine. The drug was domestically produced and of the brand 999 Ganmaoling. That was a widely approved drug in the nation. She took the medicine, but her fever did not go down. She held on, and her eyelids were fighting. Maxi stood by the window and stared out into the scenery.

A ferry stopped ashore.

A group of youths got off.

All of them were about fifteen or sixteen years old. They were very young, and they walked in an orderly manner. There were light-skinned, dark-skinned, and Asian youths. They walked towards the building at the back. Maxi’s eyes darkened.

She turned around to look at Shen Qianshu.

Shen Qianshu was leaning against the bed. She saw them too, but she did not think much of it. Maxi said, “Do you know who that group of girls are?”

“Am I supposed to know?”

“Of course,” Maxi said. “Because if you don’t die in their hands, they die in yours. You should know them. It’s better to.”

“… ” Shen Qianshu looked at her.

Girl, are you really a doctor?

Based on my calculations, you sound like you are a cult leader.

Monica pushed the door open and entered in a rough manner. “Maxi, something is up.”

“I saw it,” Maxi said and looked at her. The youth’s hipster ponytail was swaying in the air. Her eyes were really bright, and Shen Qianshu felt that she looked really familiar. She seemed to have seen this hipster girl at least once.
