A Billion Dollar Exchange-Chapter 10: We meet again

Liling scurried to the lobby and she spotted a receptionist by a counter, she opted to check out her mom and the receptionist referred her to an office. She walked to the door and knocked on it, when she heard the invitation from inside, she gently pushed open the door.

"Liling? ,wow we meet again " Chang Ming stood with a surprised smile on his face as he pointed to a seat and told her to make herself comfortable..

Liling sat as told and smiled comfortably.

"Nurse, I came to discharge my mom. " Liling immediately told him her reason, she didn't want to waste too much time, given that she also had to go back to school that same day.

"Ah, that's right, Is she still here?" Chang Ming asked trying to create a discussion.

"Mmm"

"But she's alright now?"

"Mmm"

Chang Ming smiled at her abrupt replies, he really wanted to talk more but she wasn't even giving him the chance.

He sadly asked for her details and her mom's, then discharged her.

"Thank you nurse, I'll be leaving now" Liling stood up to leave but Chang Ming held her back.

"Wait,... Liling, .....where do you study? " He wavered, he didn't know why he was feeling so tense. 𝒇𝐫ℯ𝑒𝒘ℯ𝑏n𝑜ѵ𝐞l.c𝗼𝗺

Liling looked at him with a confused expression as she wondered what he was doing with her school.

"Gahll Polytechnic" She replied and made to walk out again before Chang Ming stopped her once more.

"Course?"

Pausing for a while she replied

"Music"

Then she left for her mom's ward.

Before long they were on the way home, Liling went through her Weibo read through people's posts and comments, laughed at some funny ones and commented on others. She didn't post on Weibo, she just preferred reading others' .

"Mom, I won't be home for a while, our exams are around the corner." Liling told her mom as soon as they arrived home. She helped her mom carry her bags into the house and sat on the cushion. Their house was old, but neat. The wooden furnitures were not too old because Liling's father was a carpenter so he made the furnitures. The house was Liling's father's father's house. Her dad was the only child and that was the property that was left for him. The ceiling leaked out when she was still little and her dad always patched it. Recently, they saved up money and changed the roofings entirely.

"It's your final exams right?"

"Mmm"

"I'll give you a little of my savings to keep you till your exams are over "

Ah Kum made to stand but Liling held her back.

"You worry yourself too much mom, I have enough for myself and to spare"
