Chapter 4

I found a job at a convenience store.

I picked out the cutest cake. Not knowing what color the little girl liked, I hesitated for a moment before choosing the pink one.

When I arrived this time, someone was standing by her bed.

The woman was dressed fashionably, wearing stiletto heels and black sunglasses.

“Use this money to pay for your hospitalization fees. If it’s not enough, I’ll bring you more.”

“Sister, I can’t take this.”

“If I give it to you, you take it.” The woman dropped the money and started to run off. “Who says I can’t be a rich person for once?”

“Sister, what’s your name?” the little girl shouted after her.

The woman turned her head back. “Just call me the Wish Group Leader.”

With that, she swaggered away.

So what if she’s a fan? Big deal.

I’m still an anti-fan.

One of these days, I’ll come up with a group name too, just to spite you all.

“Sister, you’re back again.”

A stack of red bills lay on her quilt, looking incredibly conspicuous.

I pressed the call button for the nurse. “Since you have the money, go pay the fees quickly. If it gets lost later, don’t come crying to me.”

“Okay, Sister.”

She was silent for a moment. “Good Person Sister, what did you bring me today?”

I feigned annoyance. “What, I can’t come if I don’t bring something? You’re actually reaching out and asking for things now?”

“Because you bring me something every time.” She giggled. “You’re the Good Person Sister, after all.”

“I have a name.” I handed her the cake bag. “My name is Gu Dong.”

“Haha, Sister, your name sounds like ‘gudong gudong,’ like water splashing!”

What a brat.

“Sister, my name is Xiaomai. Like the wheat you can eat when it grows up.”

“Sister, do you really have nothing to say to me?” she asked me only after she had nearly finished the cake.

I cleared my throat.

A sense of shyness and embarrassment welled up in my heart.

“Well, I’m actually here to pass on a message for Zhu Yuan.”

“It’s Sister Zhu Yuan! What did she say to me?” Her eyes became round and sparkling again.

Kids are so easy to fool.

“She said she’s entrusting you with a mission that only you can accomplish.”

She immediately turned solemn, straightening her back.

I had just opened my mouth-“Zhu Yuan said, she wants you to…”

At that moment, the nurse pushed the door open and walked in. “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?”

My words came to a dead stop.

I felt the tips of my ears turn red.

But the little brat wouldn’t let me off. “Good Person Sister, go on and say it! What does Sister Zhu Yuan want me to do?”

The Nurse Jiejie immediately fixed her gaze on me.

Should I answer or not?

“Sister, tell me!”

After finally waiting for the nurse to leave the room, I cleared my throat again.

“This is a mission of the utmost importance.”

“She said she wants to ask you to be a Time-Space Courier.”
