Chapter 61 Pure Love Fangirl (18)
After this conversation, Xia Mingwei became much more restrained than usual. After all, she didn't want to upset the original owner's father over such trivial matters, which would ultimately affect the original owner's evaluation of her. If that happened, it would be a loss rather than a gain.
To uncover the truth behind Li Ming's cyberbullying, Xia Mingwei secretly contacted several detective agencies, providing them with photos and instructing them to monitor the movements of these individuals and report back promptly. The people in the photos were none other than familiar faces; upon closer inspection, they were all individuals connected to the cyberbullying incident involving Li Ming.
Because Xia Mingwei offered a generous reward, these detective agencies readily accepted the task. In addition, Xia Mingwei also provided a substantial bonus, making it highly sought after by renowned detectives in the industry.
This made Xia Mingwei sigh at the allure of money, and she even said to Xiao Ba frankly, "Xiao Ba, remember to get me more roles from wealthy families next time. The feeling of having money to make the devil turn the millstone is just too awesome!"
Xiao Ba rolled her eyes at this. Being a rich person isn't something you can just take on whenever you want! It takes opportunity to be rich, okay?
Ignoring Xiao Ba's eye roll, she chuckled and exclaimed to herself, "With the help of money, even the mission has become much easier!"
However, Xia Mingwei soon realized that she couldn't laugh anymore.
Illness finally caught up with her, and she withered away quickly like a flower. Unlike other patients, she could clearly feel her life slipping away bit by bit.
But she dared not tell anyone, fearing her father would be heartbroken upon learning the truth. At this moment, she finally understood the original owner's feelings when she made her wish. Living in this world is difficult enough; to be able to live happily and joyfully, to truly love this world on one's behalf, isn't that another kind of happiness?
But right now, she needs to speed things up, since she doesn't have much time left.
In fact, her family doctor had also examined her during this period.
After he finished the examination, he looked at the results, frowned, and instructed Xia Mingwei, "For the time being, you should rest in bed! I know you've been dealing with some things lately, but these things will take up a lot of your energy. You should wait until you're fully recovered before dealing with them!"
Hearing this, Xia Mingwei laughed self-deprecatingly, "Get better? Doctor, do you think I can still get better?"
Her eyes were fixed on the doctor, making him extremely guilty as he had originally intended to conceal the illness. He hesitated, as if he wanted to say something to refute Xia Mingwei's words, but when the words reached his lips, he found himself unable to utter a single sound.
Xia Mingwei raised her head, looked at the doctor's face, and said, "After all, besides you, I know my body best, don't I?"
Hearing this, the doctor could only sigh. Based on Xia Mingwei's current medical reports, no one could guarantee how much longer she had. However, it was certain that her body wouldn't survive past next autumn.
Just as the doctor was about to leave the room, Xia Mingwei couldn't help but ask, "Could you please keep my current health condition a secret for a little longer?"
"You should know your physical condition better than anyone! I think you should stop what you're doing and focus on recovering!"
"Focus on recovering, and then what? Watch my life slip away in the hospital room, and then say goodbye to this world?"
Seeing that he didn't answer, Xia Mingwei continued, "Doctor, I don't want to spend the last days of my life like this. Can you help me? At least help me keep it a secret for a while!"
He lingered at the door for a moment without saying a word. But Xia Mingwei knew that he had agreed.
Seeing Xia Mingwei's pale face, ravaged by illness, Xiao Ba felt a pang of heartache. But even in this state, she did not forget her mission.
Even though she was plagued by illness every day, Xia Mingwei could still be seen busily working. Xiao Ba, seeing her like this, felt heartbroken and said to Xia Mingwei, who was enduring the pain, "Host, I have some energy here that can be exchanged for pain-blocking potions. Would you like to try it?"
Upon hearing Xiao Ba's words, Xia Mingwei did not immediately agree to Xiao Ba's suggestion, but instead inquired about the relevant details in detail.
"How much energy do I need to exchange for this potion?"
"100." Xiao Ba blurted out quickly, but Xia Mingwei knew from Xiao Ba's guilty look that it was lying and not telling the truth.
"Xiao Ba, tell me the truth, how much do you really need?"
Seeing that his lie had been exposed, Xiao Ba simply laid his cards on the table: "To exchange for one of these potions, you need 500 energy!"
Xia Ming sighed, for no other reason than that 500 energy points were a considerable amount. Xiao Ba and she had diligently completed the first two tasks to accumulate this much energy. If they were to spend that much energy to exchange for a potion like this, they would be back to square one.
But Xia Mingwei wanted to know more than that. So she asked Xiao Ba again, "How long does this medicine last?"
"It will only last for about a week!" Xiao Ba's voice trailed off, and she no longer had the confidence she once had.
After listening to Xiao Ba's entire story, Xia Mingwei pondered for a while and realized that doing so was not worthwhile at all.
Seeing that Xia Mingwei disagreed, Xiao Ba became a little anxious and asked Xia Mingwei again, "Host, are you sure you don't want it? You'll feel much better after you have this potion!"
Xia Mingwei waved her hand and asked Xiao Ba, "What should I do when I run out of this week's supply?"
Xiao Ba fell silent after hearing this. "Yes! The host is right. What will we do after a week when the potion runs out?"
That's the truth, but Xiao Ba still looked worried and asked anxiously, "Then, host, is there really no other way?" As she spoke, she even shed tears.
Seeing this, Xia Mingwei quickly comforted Xiao Ba, "Xiao Ba, I'm fine. Maybe this experience will improve my pain tolerance!"
Xia Mingwei said, pretending to be relaxed, and even made a gesture of feigned nonchalance.
This comical appearance successfully amused Xiao Ba, but it was still worried and couldn't help but remind it, "Host, when you feel you can't hold it in any longer, be sure to tell me!"
This time, Xia Mingwei did not refute Xiao Ba's words, but nodded obediently.
