70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 286 - 5: Yin Yang Injured (5)

Xu Mumu was not afraid of Professor Song at all. Professor Song treated her very well, and she naturally hoped he would live a long life.

"Sir Song, you’ve been quite busy these days. I’ll bring food to you every day," Xu Mumu said with a smile.

"That’s not necessary. The cafeteria food at the school is fine, and the courtyard staff will bring food for me." Professor Song smiled and declined; Xu Mumu’s thoughtfulness was enough.

"Exactly, Old Song won’t starve," the dean said with a smile. The food there was specially arranged by him and was naturally good.

Unable to insist, Xu Mumu gave up. She had papers to write, and it was no longer appropriate to go there. If anything were to happen, she wouldn’t be able to explain even with a hundred mouths.

Back in her small courtyard, after eating a little, Xu Mumu climbed into bed to sleep.

During this period, she had been very tense, so Xu Mumu soon fell asleep.

However, Xu Mumu didn’t sleep well; she had a nightmare where Yin Yang got injured and almost died.

Xu Mumu suddenly sat up from the bed, sweat on her forehead, her heart racing. In the dream, a faceless person stabbed Yin Yang in the abdomen. The scene, like a cycle of death, appeared repeatedly in her mind.

Xu Mumu touched her heart and bit her lip. She wondered how Yin Yang was doing. It had been so long without any news, and she couldn’t rest easy.

Sitting on the bed, Xu Mumu couldn’t fall back asleep. When she checked the time, it was just past three, so she picked up a book and began to read, constantly reminding herself that dreams are the opposite of reality, though she still couldn’t focus on the book.

Unable to read, Xu Mumu decided not to, put the book back in the cabinet, did some simple tidying up, and went to find Zhou Yunhong.

Zhou Yunhong had been asked by Yin Yang to take care of her. Zhou Yunhong must know where Yin Yang was. She wanted to find Yin Yang to confirm his safety, otherwise she couldn’t be at ease.

"Sister-in-law, why are you here?" Zhou Yunhong had just returned with a burlap sack when he saw Xu Mumu. She must have something important, he thought.

"Let’s talk inside." Xu Mumu pressed her lips together, knowing panicking wouldn’t help.

"What brings sister-in-law here?" Zhou Yunhong asked curiously.

"I had a nightmare today, dreamed something happened to Yin Yang. I want to find him," Xu Mumu stated her purpose without hiding it, looking seriously at Zhou Yunhong.

"Brother Yang, sister-in-law, you’re overthinking it. He’ll be fine," Zhou Yunhong paused and said.

"No, I’m worried. I’m very anxious right now. I need to go to Lan City. Help me get a train ticket, and take me to find Yin Yang. I’ll go to school to ask the counselor for a few days off," Xu Mumu said earnestly.

"Since sister-in-law insists, we should go see." Seeing Xu Mumu’s determined look, he too began to worry about Yin Yang. With some trouble arising in Lan City, he couldn’t guarantee Yin Yang’s safety either.

Zhou Yunhong agreed, which put Xu Mumu at ease. She then went to request leave from the counselor.

Seeing Xu Mumu’s anxious expression, the counselor granted her the leave.

When Professor Song returned in the evening, Xu Mumu informed him about her trip to Lan City.

"Why are you thinking of going to Lan City?" Professor Song looked at Xu Mumu; Yin Yang was in Lan City.

"I’ve never been there. I’m a bit tired these days, so I’m going to relax a little," Xu Mumu said casually.

"Alright, go ahead." Professor Song nodded in agreement, unaware of the dangers involved.

Early the next morning, Xu Mumu packed two sets of clothes and brought along the dagger she had confiscated from Yin Xu, then took the train to Lan City with Zhou Yunhong.

Lan City was located in the west of Hua Country, far from the Imperial City. It took Xu Mumu and Zhou Yunhong almost four days by train to finally arrive.

Although Lan City wasn’t as prosperous as the Imperial City, it had its unique charm.

"Sister-in-law, I found a car. Let me take you to the old Yin Family estate," Zhou Yunhong drove up with a car.

"Impressive, you found a car so quickly," Xu Mumu said with a smile.

"It’s from an old friend of mine," Zhou Yunhong chuckled.

As they sat in the car, taking in the scenery outside the window, Xu Mumu’s heart was still uneasy.

After half an hour, they arrived at a large estate, with a sign that read "Yin Mansion," grand and imposing.

Tsk, such a mansion, yet not confiscated; the Yin Family was indeed powerful.

Zhou Yunhong knocked on the gate of the Yin Mansion. The person who opened it was an old man, who apparently recognized Zhou Yunhong and let them in without issue.

When Zhou Yunhong introduced Xu Mumu, the old man stared at her for a few moments but ultimately said nothing.

As Xu Mumu walked in, she saw an old man with a medical kit coming out of a room, which made her heart leap. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Zhou Yunhong felt the same way. Although he didn’t believe anything had happened to Yin Yang before, seeing a doctor there made him worried too.

"Sir Cao, what happened?" Zhou Yunhong asked the old man.

"The Family Head was attacked. It’s not looking good," Mr. Cao sighed.

"Where’s Yin Yang? Take me to him," Xu Mumu took a deep breath, looking at the two men.

"This way, please." Mr. Cao glanced at them. If it weren’t for Zhou Yunhong vouching for Xu Mumu, he wouldn’t have let her in.

They were led to a room, and upon entering, Xu Mumu caught the scent of blood, unpleasant despite being cleaned.

Yin Yang lay unconscious, his face pale.

Seeing Yin Yang in such a state, Xu Mumu’s heart twisted painfully.

After checking him carefully, with the injury to his lower back and waist, and what Mr. Cao had said, Xu Mumu pressed her lips together. Everything from her dream had come true.

Gently smoothing out his furrowed brows with her fingertips, Xu Mumu’s touch seemed to awaken Yin Yang.

"Mumu? Am I dreaming?" Yin Yang’s voice was slightly hoarse.

"I’m here," Xu Mumu said, her face cold. Just the thought of someone injuring Yin Yang like this made her want to go out and kill those responsible.

"Brother Yang, who hurt you so badly? I’ll get revenge for you," Zhou Yunhong’s eyes were a bit red.

"Calm down." Yin Yang merely glanced at Zhou Yunhong briefly before focusing entirely on Xu Mumu. A few days ago, he thought he was going to die, and he kept thinking about Xu Mumu. Now seeing her before him, he couldn’t look away.

"Do you still feel uncomfortable? Have you taken your medicine?" Xu Mumu asked gently, looking at Yin Yang’s current state. Now wasn’t the time for other matters; the priority was for Yin Yang to heal properly.

"It hurts, Mumu, I’m uncomfortable; I’m hungry," Yin Yang held Xu Mumu’s hand, looking at her pitifully.
