Chapter 3121: I Just Can’t Seem to Feel at Ease
“Xinxin, you can’t have any more accidents in the future. I’d rather die than lose you,” Mother Xu said with a frown on her face.
“You don’t know—my heart’s been pounding uncontrollably lately. I just can’t seem to feel at ease,” she added. Her face was clouded with worry.
Ning Shu tried to reassure her. “It’s okay. You’re just nervous because of the upcoming surgery. Don’t worry.”
“Mom, don’t worry. No matter what happens, I’ll protect myself. I still have to take care of you—how could I let something happen to me?”
After a pause, Ning Shu added, “Let’s move.”
“Move again? Why?” Mother Xu asked in surprise.
Staying in one place too long made it easy to be found. The matter that started with the island wasn’t over yet.
Gong Rong hadn’t let her go. Ning Shu didn’t plan on telling her mother. Not now, when she was still recuperating and preparing for surgery.
This wasn’t something her mother could handle. Telling her would only add unnecessary anxiety, and too much stress was bad for her health.
“I mean, let’s find somewhere with a better environment. Maybe closer to the hospital, so it’s more convenient for your appointments.”Frequent moves made it harder for Gong Rong to track her down. Ning Shu was even considering leaving the country.
Staying in China was unbearable. Despite being half-dead, Gong Rong kept clinging to life by a thread.
It was so annoying.
“No need to move. I think it’s nice here. The people around us are pretty decent,” Mother Xu said. “All this moving back and forth is just too tiring.”
Seeing that her mother truly didn’t want to move, Ning Shu let it go. Places like this residential complex weren’t that easy to find, and it would take time for anyone to locate them here.
Plus, her mother’s health couldn’t handle the constant upheaval.
So Ning Shu gave up on the idea of moving.
Other people were eagerly waiting for Gong Rong’s new short videos. Ning Shu was just waiting for him to stop filming altogether.
When that happened, it probably meant he’d finally croaked.
Heavens, Ning Shu had never in her life wished so viciously for someone to die as badly as she wished it for Gong Rong.
“I’m heading out for a walk,” Mother Xu said to her. “Watching others dance makes me feel young again.”
These days, she loved watching people her age dance. Their energy lifted her spirits, and just watching them made her feel cheerful.
So whenever she had some free time, she went out to watch them dance.
Ning Shu nodded. “Okay, just be careful. Remember, you can’t dance right now. Don’t push your body too hard.”
Once Mother Xu left, Ning Shu was alone in the house. She sat watching one of Gong Rong’s short videos.
It was clear to her that Gong Rong was already running on fumes.
She still didn’t know what he wanted from her, though.
She closed her laptop with a conflicted feeling. Should she go or not? Should she not go… Or not go…
After weighing the pros and cons in her mind, Ning Shu decided there was no need to go.
If she went, she’d only attract more attention.
She couldn’t shake off the feeling that Gong Rong was trying to kill her seumnida.
Maybe she should just take her mother and go abroad. But now, she’d matched a suitable donor kidney. If they gave it up, who knew how long it would take for another chance to come around?
Her mother’s illness couldn’t wait any longer.
Ning Shu’s heart skipped. She began to wonder if the kidney was even real. From her recollection, it seemed that Gong Rong knew that her mother had uremia.
Maybe the kidney was a bait—Gong Rong’s way of fishing for her.
Or maybe it was real, and Gong Rong planned to use it to blackmail her.
After thinking it through, Ning Shu grabbed a light jacket, put it on, and decided to head to the hospital to ask about the kidney.
She opened the door, only to see a man in a black suit standing there, with his hand raised, about to ring the doorbell.
Ning Shu raised her eyebrows.
An old acquaintance had come.
