66: Scumbag Calls

Chapter 66: Scumbag's Call

"How is it? Doctor, is it serious?"

The orphanage director in the emergency room waited anxiously.

"Director, when did Mo Wangjun's symptoms begin?"

Mo Linglong slowly closed the medical record and began to ask in detail.

She couldn't quite grasp the illness at once and needed a more specific understanding.

On the bed nearby, lay a little girl, about seven or eight years old, with rosy cheeks and delicate, lovely features.

However, her face was slightly pale, and she looked very weak.

But the moment Mo Linglong turned her back to talk to the orphanage director,

she didn't notice the little girl on the bed, who seemed innocent, now looking at her with an icy chill that did not match her age.

...

Night had already fallen.

In the dark hospital room, Xia He, who had been pale and frail during the day, opened her delicate and lovely big eyes.

She looked indifferently at the orphanage director, who was slumped in a corner of the bed.

"Director? Director?"

She gently shook her and called out twice in a pitiful, soft voice.

After confirming that the other person had fallen into a deep sleep, she slightly curved her lips and quietly slipped out of bed.

Wearing a pair of cute pink bunny ear slippers and holding a small bear, she gently opened the door to the ward.

In the dimly lit, empty hospital corridor, the soft sound of her slippers walking was incredibly noticeable.

Xia He, holding the small bear in such an environment, added a touch of eeriness.

At this moment, in the emergency doctor's office.

Due to a recent car accident, most of the emergency doctors and nurses had rushed to the operating room to save lives.

So, apart from Mo Linglong, all the other on-duty doctors and nurses were absent.

She was left alone on duty.

Mo Linglong was organizing the patient records for the day, and after she was mostly done, she checked the time.

"It's almost time for rounds."

To prevent any accidents with patients, the emergency department required nurses to make rounds every one or two hours.

Normally, she, as the attending physician, wouldn't have to do it.

But today, with no other doctors or nurses, this responsibility naturally fell to her.

Immediately, Mo Linglong stood up, took off the stethoscope from her neck, and put the flashlight in her white coat pocket.

After carefully inspecting all the wards, just as she was about to return to the office and then go to the operating room to lend a hand,

she reached the office door and heard a creak.

The door slowly opened.

It was pushed open from the outside, and even more strangely, there was no one behind the door.

Mo Linglong's delicate brows furrowed. As a doctor, she was accustomed to life and death and naturally didn't believe in ghosts or gods.

She stepped forward and pulled the door open, only to hear a tender little girl's voice from below.

"Sister."

She saw a familiar little girl, wearing pink bunny ear slippers, holding a toy bear, with an innocent expression.

She was looking at her, smiling somewhat reluctantly, but her face was still a little pale.

"Jun Jun, why are you here?"

Seeing the little girl she had treated not long ago, Mo Linglong's face couldn't help but show a smile.

"It's so late, and you're not sleeping. Be careful, Auntie Director will spank your little bottom tomorrow."

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

Mo Linglong squatted down and stroked Xia He's head.

She glanced inside but didn't see the director.

"Where's the director? Didn't Auntie Director come with you?"

"Auntie Director is already asleep. She doesn't sleep with me."

Listening to the other person's caring words, fear appeared on Xia He's face.

She suddenly buried herself in Mo Linglong's arms.

"Sister Linglong, I'm afraid of the dark! I don't dare to sleep alone!"

"It's okay, Jun Jun."

Mo Linglong comforted softly, gently patting Xia He's small back, her face full of tenderness.

But it's normal for little girls to be afraid of the dark.

She hugged the little girl and brought her to her office chair, continuing to comfort her.

"Sister will come back to coax you to sleep later. You sit here first and wait for me obediently."

"Mm~"

Xia He hugged Mo Linglong, nodded, and gave a sweet laugh.

However, on the little face that Mo Linglong couldn't see, amidst the sweet smile, Xia He's eyes were unusually cold.

Seeing that the time was right,

her hand slowly reached for a toy box on the back of the toy bear.

Xia He's eyes became increasingly filled with murderous intent.

This is Mo Yong, that dead scumbag's daughter!

Damn it!

You all deserve to die!

Just as she was about to pull something out of the toy box,

Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling!

Suddenly, on the office desk, the phone's incoming call ringtone abruptly rang.

Mo Linglong, holding Xia He, hadn't intended to answer.

After all, she didn't contact many people in her life.

It was usually just her family, and then she had called that dead scumbag Huang Yu a few times.

But he never picked up.

The rest were mostly suitors, whom she always bothered to ignore.

Besides, she was rushing to the operating room to help, so she had even less desire to answer.

However, when Mo Linglong saw the number on the incoming call display, her eyes briefly widened in surprise.

Then her head buzzed, her nose stung, and she instinctively stood up to grab her phone.

That dead scumbag finally bothered to call me!

In her excitement, she completely forgot that she was still holding Xia He, the little girl.

"Oh no!"

Just as she was about to deal with this daughter of a scumbag, Xia He felt the place she was sitting on suddenly become empty.

She fell straight to the ground, landing on her bottom.

"Waaah~ Waaah~"

Xia He's small hand was on her little bottom, rubbing it continuously.

Tears, like beads, streamed from her watery big eyes.

Her face was full of grievance.

"It... it hurts so much, my bottom."

Although Xia He didn't want to be in this state,

there was no way around it, it really hurt.

Ever since her body had become smaller, her emotions and physiology seemed to have returned to the age of seven or eight.

"Ah, Jun Jun, I'm sorry!"

Hearing the crying, Mo Linglong instantly reacted.

Looking at the little girl crying loudly on the ground, her heart was instantly filled with guilt.

She quickly picked her up.

She continuously rubbed Jun Jun's bottom, comforting her gently.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's all my fault."

"Sister will definitely buy you lots of delicious food tomorrow."

"Jun Jun, girls need to be strong, don't cry."

How humiliating!

She was actually being coaxed like a daughter by her enemy's daughter, who was even rubbing her little bottom.

Xia He instantly felt an unprecedented shame, wishing she could kill the other person right now.

However...

Listening to Mo Linglong's comforting words, the images of potato chips, cola, and popcorn began to appear in her mind unconsciously...

And her lips felt a little wet.

No, no!

Xia He quickly shook her head, wiped the drool from her mouth, and stopped crying.

I wasn't comforted by that dead scumbag's daughter!

Absolutely not!

Seeing the little girl stop crying, Mo Linglong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It wasn't that she deliberately did this, but because the caller ID's note was 'Heartless Bastard Dead Scumbag!'

There was no one else she would label with that note!
