Chapter 133 - Profiting From a Disaster (1) (1/2)

The next day was bright and sunny, and the sky was clear.

Feeling carefree from completely recovering, Xu Weilai hopped off the bed and stretched her back. She twisted to the left, then again to her right, and began to move her body that had turned stiff from lying down for so long.

The nurse helped her to pack her daily necessities before handling the discharge procedures on her behalf.

After moving for a short while, Xu Weilai couldn’t contain her energy. She ran over to help the nurse with the packing with nimble and dexterous movements. Having completed the packing in the blink of an eye, she zipped her luggage bag closed.

The nurse’s eyes widened in surprise as she exclaimed, “Miss Xu, you’re even better at it than I am!”

She had served the daughters of many wealthy families, who had all been pampered and spoiled so much that they were unable to do anything for themselves. It was rare indeed to see a woman as capable of taking care of herself as Xu Weilai!

“I constantly have to run all over for my news assignments, and time is always of the essence. I’m used to doing my own chores. Naturally, this isn’t a problem for me at all.”

Before she had gone abroad, she had also been waited upon hand and foot. Food and clothing had always been prepared ahead of time for her. When she was overseas, however, she had discovered for herself just how much perseverance and potential a desperate person could possess.

Although Xu Weilai’s tone was casual and she bluntly, the nurse felt her heart going out towards her. Xu Weilai was very young. Why was there such a desolate aura about her?

“Little Weilai, I’m here!”

A fashionably dressed lady suddenly appeared at the door. Xiao Chun strode in with confidence in a pair of high-heels, carrying a huge bouquet of pink roses with her. When she saw how thin and haggard Xu Weilai had become, she hugged her tightly. “Were you ill ever since the night when I had sent you back? Had I known that earlier, I wouldn’t have left! If I had been with you, I would have been able to find out that you were ill at the first opportunity and take care of you!”

“Well, can’t you see that I’m already well? It’s been a long time since I’ve fallen ill. My body probably just needed to rid itself of all the toxins–” Xu Weilai remarked self-deprecatingly.
