It's the age of cyber, and you're still a traditional villain?

Chapter 12 You don't really treat me like a child, do you?
When Shen He's little classmate was in a state of desperation, Xu Shi had already arranged for Xia Ke'an to transfer to another hospital.

Compared with the charity hospital in the [-]th district, the conditions of the private hospital in the [-]th district of "Prism" are much better.

In the hall, you can hear the sound of needles falling quietly, and a large area of ​​flowers is planted outside the house, and the fragrance just covers up the peculiar smell in the hospital.

Those who seek medical treatment here are also politicians and wealthy businessmen, and each of them is accompanied by a few beautiful nurses with white silk, or handsome nurses.

With their careful care, it must be very helpful to the condition, right?

And Xia Ke'an stayed in Xu Shi's exclusive ward.

The spacious room overlooks the panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows and is equipped with the best medical equipment in the night city.

"Thank you, Xu Dong is really a kind person."

Seeing all this, Xia Ke'an couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional. She had enjoyed such conditions before, but in retrospect, it seemed like a lifetime ago.

"Where is it."

Xu Shi accepted her praise without any pressure, "It is also my honor to help the former number one beauty in Night City."

This is really not a courtesy.

Don't look at Xia Ke'an's appearance as a little girl now, but this is just affected by the complications of the ability.

Back then when "Refraction" was in full swing, she was also a fascinated existence in Night City.

There is still a photo of her father and her at home... Xu Shi used her as a childhood goddess for a while when he was young.

Of course, she didn't call her by that name back then.

The same goes for Xia Wuyou, who have been hiding for so many years, and the two of them have changed their names and surnames many times.

And now she is actually very cute. Although her appearance and figure have changed a lot, she is still delicate like a carefully crafted doll.

"First?"

Hearing this, Xia Ke'an giggled, "I can't bear this title... But I haven't heard anyone say that for a long time, I really miss it."

On this topic, the two chatted very happily, without the formality of meeting for the first time.

This actually made Xia Wuyou a little at a loss. How can I tell my aunt that he threatened me with you a few days ago...

"...Then let's do this first?"

A few hours passed during the chat, and seeing that it was getting late, Xu Shi also got up and prepared to leave, "Miss An, please rest assured to receive treatment, and tell me if you need anything."

"Ok."

The long chat also made Xia Ke'an look a little tired, and his breathing was a little short.

"But speaking of it, I have an unfeeling request right now."

"Oh?"

"I haven't seen Wuyou for a long time, and I want to talk to her alone... Xu Dong is not in a hurry to take her away, is he?"

"No problem at all."

Xu Shi didn't want to interfere with their private space, "I'll just go outside and wait, I'll send her back later."

"That's really troublesome for you."

The white-haired loli clasped her palms together, her face full of innocence and cuteness.

however.

The moment Xu Shi left, this innocence instantly turned into seriousness.

"So, you took "Spark" as a vote, right? "

"……Hey?"

Hearing Xia Ke'an's question, Xia Wuyou suddenly raised his head.

In fact, she is still brooding over the intimacy between her aunt and Xu Shishi... However, this sentence shocked her even more.

"How...how would you know?"

In fact, she rarely talked about work matters with Xia Ke'an, and she never mentioned the deal with "Xinghuo" or Shen He.

"Didn't you use your ability?"

Xia Wuyou subconsciously thought of this reason, "Your current body can't hold it, how can you..."

"...Ah, ah, ah."

The white-haired Loli didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and rubbed her head, "Are you still using my powers with your little thoughts?"

"That……"

"Actually, I wasn't completely sure before, but seeing that Xu Shi came here in person today, I knew what was going on."

Xia Ke'an sighed, "After all, I know too well that the consortium never trades at a loss. If he can provide such conditions, you must pay a lot more."

"As for the "Xinghuo" matter, I already knew that, their leader is Shen Tianhong's son, right? "

"……hold head high."

Xia Wuyou's brain had already shut down, and he nodded numbly.

In fact, in her impression, her aunt has always been just a gentle and elegant lady.

When "Refraction" was destroyed, she had already become the disease-ridden appearance... This has caused her to take care of each other as a younger sister unconsciously over the years.

And she never thought about it—although the other party has been on the hospital bed, he seems to know everything well.

"You really treat me like a child?"

Xia Ke'an seemed to see through her thoughts, and held her hand with a smile, "Your aunt and I are also very good."

"I have learned about the "Spark" thing about a year or two ago. "

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Because I don't want you to get involved."

The white-haired Lolita said seriously, "There is an old relationship between you and Shen He... If you knew, you would even agree to it voluntarily."

"Well……"

Xia Wuyou was a little embarrassed, because the facts were indeed roughly the same as what her aunt said.

The fact that I am willing to trade with Shen He is not entirely based on the price offered by the other party.

"I absolutely don't want to see that kind of thing happen, because "Xinghuo" is not just a gang, and the things involved behind it are too complicated... But I didn't expect Shen He to find you, let alone Xu Shi. Found these too. "

"Um……"

Xia Wuyou nodded, the aunt and nephew agreed on this point.

When she was exposed by Xu Shi, she was equally surprised.

"I didn't know much about him before, and I subconsciously felt that he was definitely not as good as Xu Cheng, and whether he could keep his position was open to question...but now it seems that he is not that simple."

Xia Ke'an shook his head, "I never thought he would... Forget it, tell me about it, what happened recently?"

"Ah."

Xia Wuyou responded, and intermittently talked about what happened.

But as she talked, she felt a little uncomfortable, and asked softly, "Auntie, if I do this, do you think that I..."

"will not."

The white-haired Loli moved closer to her, "Maybe Yu Qing is a bit cruel, but you have to be honest...I can only say that you made the right choice."

""Spark" is indeed not simple, but in terms of strength, it still can't compare with "Snake Ring". If it were me, I wouldn't even hesitate. "

She said helplessly, "Although Xu Shi may not be a good person, at least he can make you not work as hard as before, can't he?"

Xia Ke'an's tone was even more sad.

Now they are helpless, all they can do is to make the right choice as much as possible between the cracks.

"In the final analysis, I was the one who dragged you down. Otherwise, your life would be much better than it is now."

Although Xia Wuyou always reported good news but not bad news, why didn't she understand that what her niece did outside was always dangerous, otherwise how could she afford such expensive medical care?
Being threatened by Xu Shi was also because of me, otherwise, how could an A-level "upgrader" be manipulated wantonly?
The white-haired loli lowered her head and rubbed her nose lightly.

"...Don't say that, Auntie."

Xia Wuyou said earnestly, "You are my only family member, and I did all of these things voluntarily, and I never blamed you."

"But I also don't want you to be tied down because of me."

Leaning in her arms, Xia Ke'an blinked and murmured, "But now it seems impossible to stay out of it...By the way, you just said that Shen He gave you a bottle of inhibitor?"

"That's right." Xia Wuyou didn't know what she wanted to say.

"Give it to Xu Shi."

"……why?"

Xia Wuyou was a little puzzled, or rather she didn't intend to do this on purpose.

After all, she had never trusted Xu Shi, so she always wanted to save some time.

"Just like the person who asked you to solve "Spark", what he values ​​is your attitude. "

Xia Ke'an said seriously, "Whether it's his business or not, but whether you give it or not is yours... Even if it's false and obsequious, it's better than hiding it like this, understand?"

Just like myself just now.

Don't worry about what you think in your heart, you always have to live with face.
