Today, I Have Yet to Become a Doll

At eight o'clock in the evening, the rain stopped.

The sky was completely dark.

Shen Mo stood under the eaves, looking at the pitch-black sky, thinking: We can't leave tonight either.

There was clearly less than an hour's journey left, but they had to delay for another day. Driving at night was too risky, so they could only wait until morning to leave.

There was no electricity, no network signal, the situation in Yangzhou was unknown, and all kinds of worries weighed on Shen Mo's mind, making him inexplicably irritable.

Tan Xiao and Teacher Cheng set up the pot again, added a few more pieces of bench legs to the fire, and boiled water to cook noodles.

The Monkey pried open the doors of several dormitories with wires. Inside were single beds and desks. He didn't know if the bedding was clean, but it should be fine for one night.

They had dinner around nine o'clock, still instant noodles, plus the roast duck and goose they brought from the food processing plant. Without rice and vegetables, everyone ate in silence.

Bai Youwei didn't eat much for lunch and didn't eat for dinner either, saying she had no appetite. She went to the dormitory room to rest, wheeling herself in her wheelchair.

She had been careful with her diet since she was a child, and a nanny took care of her three meals a day according to her taste. It was normal that she couldn't eat these things. Shen Mo didn't take it to heart.

After dinner, Teacher Cheng specially boiled another pot of hot water, scalded the cleaned glass jar two or three times, then filled it with a full glass of hot water and soaked it in cold water to cool.

When the water was no longer so hot, Teacher Cheng handed the jar to Shen Mo and said, "Your sister seems a little unwell. Let her drink more hot water."

Shen Mo was stunned.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Teacher Cheng kindly reminded him, "She only ate a little at noon, and she hasn't had a sip of water until now. This won't work, she will get sick."

Tan Xiao was tilting his neck and pouring water into his mouth. Hearing this, he paused, put down the water bottle and asked, "Why didn't she drink? Isn't she thirsty?"

After asking, he answered himself as a matter of course: "Oh, I see! She has been sitting still, her heart is calm and naturally cool, and when it's cool, she won't sweat, and if she doesn't sweat, she won't be thirsty! … Hiccup…"

What kind of talk was this?

Teacher Cheng looked at Tan Xiao, speechless.

Shen Mo's face gradually darkened.

He picked up the jar and turned to go out. Bai Youwei's dormitory was next door. He held the doorknob, twisted it, and the door was locked.

"Bai Youwei!" Shen Mo raised his hand and knocked on the door, with a hint of anger in his tone.

There was no movement in the door.

Shen Mo endured and endured, gritted his teeth and said, "Bai Youwei, open the door!"

Tan Xiao, Cheng Weicai, and the Monkey all sensed something was wrong, and came out to see, "What's wrong…"

Shen Mo stood outside the door, his face so gloomy that it looked like it was about to rain.

What else didn't he understand? Bai Youwei was not hungry, nor was she thirsty, she was angry with him because of what happened in the game, and felt that she couldn't count on him! So she refused to eat or drink, so that she wouldn't have to look at his face when she wanted to go to the bathroom!

How stubborn was she?

She didn't even care about her own body just to spite him?!

Anger surged up, and Shen Mo only felt his scalp go numb. He couldn't tell where the anger came from, maybe it was because of her temper, or maybe it was because of his carelessness.

No matter how much he disliked her behavior, he wouldn't ignore a disabled little girl just because of a few arguments, but it was indeed because of his neglect that she was starving and thirsty for most of the day.

After waiting for half a minute, Bai Youwei still didn't open the door.

Shen Mo didn't knock on the door anymore, he turned around with a dark face, took a deep breath, raised his foot and kicked back violently!

There was a loud bang!

The door opened!

Bai Youwei was lying on her side on the bed, her back to him. She didn't even look back when there was such a loud noise in the room.

Shen Mo didn't speak either, his eyes quickly scanned the single dormitory, took her folding crutches and bags, hung them on the left and right sides of the wheelchair, then bent down and picked up the girl on the bed.

Bai Youwei was like a cat whose fur had exploded, she turned around and scratched Shen Mo's face!

"Let me go!!!" she screamed.
