After Transmigrating Into A Cannon Fodder Character, I Only Want To Survive (GL) - Chapter 12
When they reached the first floor, Fang Bai stood a few steps away from the escalator, waiting for Ji Yuning.
On the escalator, Ji Yuning, wearing a blue and white school uniform and a high ponytail, could have perfectly embodied the youthful beauty of a high school student if it weren’t for her expressionless face.
Fang Bai didn’t know if Ji Yuning’s words were true or false, a dark joke or a sincere thought. Watching the person slowly descending from the height, Fang Bai realized that she was frightened by a child’s words.
Of course, the greater reason was Fang Bai’s fear of the original owner’s death scene.
The escalator quickly reached the first floor, and Ji Yuning slowly walked towards Fang Bai.
Whether it was Fang Bai’s illusion or not, in the interplay of light and shadow, she seemed to see a smile in Ji Yuning’s eyes.
A smile?
Fang Bai stared at her again, but saw nothing. The other person’s eyes were still distant.
Ji Yuning approached, her eyes meeting Fang Bai’s, and asked doubtfully, “What are you looking at, Aunt Fang?”
Seeing Fang Bai being frightened by her, Ji Yuning called out “Aunt Fang” in a rather good mood.
Fang Bai looked away, and said awkwardly, “Nothing, let’s go. Uncle Li has been waiting for a long time.”
Ji Yuning followed behind Fang Bai.
Fang Bai took two steps, then slowed down, waiting for Ji Yuning to walk beside her before resuming her normal pace.
On the way home, Fang Bai closed her eyes to rest, while Ji Yuning sat upright in her chair, looking out the window at the fleeting scenery, wondering what she was thinking.
Soon they arrived home. Fang Bai had fallen asleep in the car, and was awakened by Uncle Li, her eyes still sleepy and her tone much more relaxed.
“Xiao Ning,” Fang Bai called out.
There was no response.
Fang Bai looked to the side, and saw that Ji Yuning had already gotten out of the car.
“…”
Fang Bai picked up the bag next to her and slowly got out of the car.
Wu Mei stood behind the car, looking at the pile of bags in the trunk, and said, “Miss, should I put these in your room or the cloakroom?”
Fang Bai glanced at Ji Yuning, “They’re all for her. Just take them to her room.”
Wu Mei’s eyes widened suddenly, as if she had heard something incredible. She looked at Fang Bai and asked, “All… all for Xiao Ji?”
“No,” Fang Bai took a step, and said before leaving the garage, “There are two pieces of clothing for you and Uncle Li inside. Take them out for Uncle Li.”
Wu Mei’s eyes suddenly reddened. She turned to look at Ji Yuning and asked in a trembling voice, “Did Miss really buy clothes for me too?”
Ji Yuning thought for a moment, remembering that there were indeed two pieces of elderly clothing, “Yes, she bought them.”
Wu Mei was moved. Miss had always treated her well, but this was the first time she had given her something.
Putting away her thoughts, Wu Mei bent down to pick up the bags from the trunk. Seeing this, Ji Yuning quickly leaned over, “Aunt Wu, I’ll take them.”
“Let’s do it together,” Wu Mei said to Ji Yuning with a smile, “Xiao Ji, Miss is really good to you now.”
Buying a few things meant she was good?
Ji Yuning lowered her eyes, her eyes dark and unclear, and replied, “Mm.”
Wu Mei meant that compared to before, Fang Bai was indeed much better to Ji Yuning. Not only did she give her more living expenses, but she also took Ji Yuning to buy so many things, and didn’t scold Ji Yuning anymore.
Taking the bags out of the trunk, Wu Mei said a few words to Uncle Li, then handed one of the bags to Uncle Li, and then called Ji Yuning to go into the house.
Ji Yuning walked beside Wu Mei, listening to the rattling sound of the bags colliding, she paused and called out, “Aunt Wu.”
Wu Mei said “ah,” “What’s wrong?”
Ji Yuning: “I have a question to ask you.”
Ji Yuning’s tone was serious, and Wu Mei initially thought she was going to say something, her heart skipped a beat, but now that she heard Ji Yuning was just asking her a question, she smiled and said, “Ask away.”
The two had already entered the hall.
There was no one in the hall. Fang Bai had gone upstairs.
Ji Yuning stopped, “Last time I had a fever, how did I get to the second floor?”
Ji Yuning didn’t forget that she woke up in the guest room on the second floor.
Wu Mei stopped with Ji Yuning. Hearing Ji Yuning’s question, she smiled and said, “Miss carried you from the attic to the second floor.”
The answer was the same as she had guessed an hour ago.
Ji Yuning didn’t know how to feel.
She was familiar with the scent on Fang Bai’s body because that scent pulled her out of a nightmare.
But now she was suddenly told that the person who pulled her out was the one who created the nightmare…
After Wu Mei finished speaking, remembering the clothes Fang Bai bought for herself and Ji Yuning, she thought for a moment and said, “Knowing you had a fever, Miss called a doctor to the house. Not only did she carry you downstairs, she also took care of you until your fever broke.”
Ji Yuning was stunned, and a hint of surprise appeared on her indifferent face, “…Didn’t you take care of me, Aunt Wu?”
