Young Miss Strike Back! - Chapter 96

There was a long pause on the phone and Lin Xiaoxiao was starting to get anxious. She had no one else to turn to for something like this and she could not leave Minmin alone knowing how much she had suffered, knowing she would be alone with just a maid to care for her when she went home. Lin Xiaoxiao knew that Minmin needed a proper home with someone who cared for her.

Not being able to take the silence any more Lin Xiaoxiao was the first to speak: “Mom…”

A long sigh could be heard on the other side before finally Qin Mei said something: “Where are you now? Let’s talk first.”

“I’m at the hospital VIP room 105. Call me when you are here I have to come down and bring you in. This ward is shut off to all except authorized personnel.” Lin Xiaoxiao had Shen Xing completely lock down the floor they were on. She did not want a male nurse or male doctor going near  Minmin’s room.

“Alright, I will call you when I get there. I will be there soon.” After Qin Mei hung up she let out another long sigh. “I have never been married nor have I ever had a chance to do that with a man and yet somehow I might end up with a second daughter… Maybe Lily was right maybe I should settle down… I think I need to find a man…” Qin Mei once again let out a long sigh.

Lin Xiaoxiao stared at the phone for a moment before putting it away. She walked back into Minmin’s room and sat down in the chair next to Minmin’s bed. She reached out and gently grabbed the small hand that was still slightly swollen.  Lin Xiaoxiao heart ached to see Minmin as she was now. Although a little weird she was truly a good friend. Lin Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but think back to what she did to Xi Yanfen at that restaurant. This thought made her smile. Minmin could be clingy at times but she was always so bright and smiling when she was around. Lin Xiaoxiao would never have known that in reality, Minmin was very lonely.

Thirty minutes passed before Lin Xiaoxiao got a call from Qin Mei. Lin Xiaoxiao went down to the hospital entrance to meet her. “Mom!”

“Lily, tell me what is going on! Why do you want me to adopt another daughter?” Qin Mei had been thinking about this whole thing since she made her way over here and still couldn’t figure out what was actually going on.

“Let’s go grab some coffee while we talk. It’s a long story” Lin Xiaoxiao grabbed Qin Mei’s hand and pulled her along.

They got coffee at the hospital cafeteria and sat down at a table. Lin Xiaoxiao then went over all the events that had happened to Minmin including the things written in her diary. She, of course, Lin Xiaoxiao left out the unspeakable things she had discovered in Minmin’s room. After hearing everything that happened Qin Mei wanted to find the guy who tricked such a harmless and pure girl and rip his balls off! “Bring me to her room.”

Once Qin Mei walked through the door to Minmin’s VIP Room and her eyes fell on to the girl on the bed. Qin Mei could not help but tear up at the sight of the young girl all bruised and battered. She walked over to the bed and stood over her before reaching out and brushing some of the hair away from Minmin’s face. “Lily, can you get Xing’er to take care of the paperwork?  I can’t go through my old connections any more.”

“Un! I will call him right now!” Lin Xiaoxiao was happy this meant that her mother was going to adopt Minmin.

“Wait… ” Qin Mei stopped Lin Xiaoxiao.

“Mom?” Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Qin Mei a bit confused. ‘ She didn’t change her mind did she!? ‘

“Tell him to also prepare a space for the two of us at the new house. Having one male around will slowly ease Minmin into trusting men again. Her trauma will never be fixed if she is holding up in an apartment where it is just me and her.” Qin Mei explained. Qin Mei wanted to help Minmin slowly expose her self to the opposite sex once more in order to help her overcome her trauma. Qin Mei continued. “Even if say in the future she is unwilling to be with a man, at the very least she will be able to function in society. I also have a friend who I can ask to come and assist with the psychological aspect of it all. Having Minmin talk to her might help speed things along.”

“Un… Then I will go out into the hall and call Xing Now.” Lin Xiaoxiao said as she turned to leave.

“Tell Xing’er that his mother, said thanks…” Qin Mei went to go get a bowl of water and a clean towel after finishing her words. When she came back Qin Mei’s gaze as she looked at Minmin was filled with warmth. She gently used the towel dipped in warm water to wipe Minmin’s exposed skin.

After finishing her call to Shen Xing Lin Xiaoxiao walked in to see Qin Mei giving Minmin a towel bath. She smiled before taking out a hairbrush from her bag and walking over and gently brushing Minmin’s hair. The two worked in silence as they carefully cared for Minmin. Doing their best not to put any pressure on any of her wounds.

While Lin Xiaoxiao and Qin Mei were taking care of Minmin, Shen Xing was off in another location. The sounds of someone’s screams of pain could be heard echoing throughout a dark room that was far beneath the ground. “Oh? You still have the voice to yell out in pain? Seems you have yet to experience what you put that poor girl through. Keep hitting him until he can no longer speak if he passes out, wake him up! He needs to feel the pain of being beaten for days with no food or water.” Shen Xing’s voice was cold as he gave out orders. Ever since he had seen the state Minmin was in, he wanted nothing more than to beat the man who had done such horrible things to her.
