Urban Life: I Just Want To Work Hard!

Chapter 81: Lin Jiajia discovers Li Mubai's secret!

To Li Mubai's surprise, Lin Jiajia, like Lin Jiayin, was quite good at taking care of people. Although she couldn't compare to professional nannies or nurses, she was much better than Yun Wuyue and Yun Lingxing.

Yun Lingxing seemed to want to do well like Lin Jiajia, but it was obvious that she was doing these things for the first time.

From time to time, Lin Jiajia would wash the towel in the basin, wring it dry, and then wipe Li Mubai with it. Yun Lingxing would follow her immediately after seeing Lin Jiajia go to wash the towel.

Even Li Mubai felt that Lin Jiajia's seriousness made her cleaning even cleaner than what he could possibly do himself.

After finishing cleaning Li Mubai's right side, Lin Jiajia stood up and went to the left side where Lingxing was.

Obviously, she didn't trust Yun Lingxing to do the job.

Yun Lingxing reluctantly gave up her position, her mouth pursed.

"You go over there and help Mubai move a little, but don't exert too much force. Be gentle," Lin Jiajia said.

"Okay."

Putting the towel back in the basin, Yun Lingxing obediently went to the position where Lin Jiajia had started and helped Li Mubai move her limbs.

Li Mubai seemed to notice Yun Lingxing's puzzled gaze.

Lin Jiajia raised her head and smiled, saying, "During the time when my parents had an accident, it was always me and my sister taking turns to take care of them. But my sister also had to take care of the company, so I ended up doing all these tasks."

Understanding, Li Mubai didn't say much more.

Every family has its own difficulties, and Li Mubai also had his own share of parental issues.

It's just that his father ran away with another woman when he was in junior high school, and his mother passed away when he was still young.

"Come on, close your eyes, don't think too much. I still have to help you go to the bathroom..."

Looking at Lin Jiajia's smiling face approaching, Li Mubai let out a sigh and obediently closed her eyes, allowing Lin Jiajia to wipe her face.

After it was done, Lin Jiajia stood up and flicked her hair, saying to Yun Lingxing, "There are new clothes in that cabinet. Help Mubai change her clothes. I'll go change into something more comfortable to sleep in."

Li Mubai and Yun Lingxing were both a little stunned.

But Lin Jiajia acted as if everything was normal. "It's awkward now, wouldn't it be even more awkward if I went to the bathroom?"

Li Mubai had never been taken care of like this before, in this life or the previous one, but he knew that Lin Jiajia was right.

Although there was an old saying that men and women should not be too close, Li Mubai was currently a patient.

Special people require special treatment.

Afraid that Yun Lingxing would feel awkward, Li Mubai nodded slightly and closed his eyes directly.

The patient's top was easy to handle, but Yun Lingxing obviously struggled with the pants.

Even when Lin Jiajia came back with water, Yun Lingxing still hadn't finished.

Lin Jiajia chuckled lightly and effortlessly solved the problem under Yun Lingxing's astonished gaze.

Then she wet the towel and started wiping Li Mubai from top to bottom, front and back.

Soon.

Lin Jiajia took out a new, dry and comfortable patient gown and helped Li Mubai change into it.

After everything was done, Lin Jiajia put the removed patient gown into a basin and handed it to Yun Lianxing.

"There is still hot water now. After the nurse finishes the final round of room checks, there won't be any left. Or you can go home now."

"I..." Yun Lianxing swallowed the words he couldn't say and took the basin and walked out.

Not even ten seconds later, Yun Lianxing turned back, his face flushed, and asked, "Um... where is the hot water room?"

"Turn right at the end of the corridor."

Yun Lianxing left, and Lin Jiajia gently helped Li Mubai move his limbs.

"Jiajia... it's not necessary, just now..."

"She's a grown woman, she doesn't understand the details. Ligaments and such need to be checked. How is it? Does it hurt a little?" Lin Jiajia massaged the back of Li Mubai's knee.

Li Mubai shook his head. "It doesn't hurt."

With his eyes closed, Li Mubai quietly enjoyed Lin Jiajia's treatment. He didn't know if it was because of Lin Jiajia's skill or if he was just really tired, but he fell asleep comfortably again.

That night was quite peaceful. He only opened his eyes drowsily when the IV was changed.

Lin Jiajia immediately noticed and gently soothed him back to sleep.

Sleeping pills are mostly sedatives, mainly causing sedation and respiratory depression. He had already had his stomach pumped, and as long as he woke up, it was relatively safe.

And the after-effects of the medication were relatively mild.

The reason for observing for a few more days was solely because the doctor was afraid of any psychological issues Li Mubai might have.

When Li Mubai woke up the next day, he hadn't started the IV yet, indicating that it was still early and the hospital staff hadn't started their shift.

Yun Lianxing and Lin Jiajia were nowhere to be found. Li Mubai got up and quickly went to the bathroom by himself.

Just as he lay down, Lin Jiajia pushed open the door and came in.

It was like moving houses, with big and small bags...

Seeing that Li Mubai was awake, Lin Jiajia quickly put down what she was holding and came to the bedside. "Do you need to use the bathroom?"

She stopped halfway through her sentence and immediately widened her eyes. "You just got up?"

Li Mubai glanced at the slippers under the bed and hesitated. He didn't know why, but he felt that Lin Jiajia had become the authority in this ward.

"Don't do it yourself next time." Supporting Li Mubai to sit up, Lin Jiajia continued softly, "The doctor said you can start eating light food this afternoon. I'm afraid you'll get bored, so I brought some things. I don't know what you usually like, so I brought everything. Just tell me what you want."

Books about music, popular novels, the complete set of popular comics in this world, two top-of-the-line laptops... Li Mubai took a deep breath.

"It's not necessary, um... where's Lianxing?"

Lin Jiajia organized the things she had just brought. "She stayed with you last night, and I went back to sleep. Taking care of others requires taking care of oneself first. She just went back to sleep."

Li Mubai nodded slightly as he looked at Lin Jiajia's spirited smile.

"Shall we play a game?" Li Mubai suggested.

Lin Jiajia was obviously a little moved, nodded, and propped up the special table on the bed for Li Mubai. Then she placed the computer and connected the mouse cable.

"You play to pass the time, I'll go get some water and wash my face for you."

Holding the basin, Lin Jiajia glanced at Li Mubai before leaving the room.

In fact, after Li Mubai fell asleep last night, Lin Jiajia had a conversation with Yun Lingxing.

They both noticed something unusual about Li Mubai, something very wrong!

His attitude towards them was too enthusiastic.

He didn't seem like someone who had just contemplated suicide.

Most importantly, Li Mubai's acting was a bit fake, especially when they showed excessive concern and kindness towards him, he would pause for a few seconds, as if in a daze...

Although they were not the ones who persecuted Li Mubai that night, according to common sense, if you love someone, you can also hate someone.

If Li Mubai ignored them or even cursed them and told them to leave, that would be normal.

But now, this...

They both had a question in their minds, what happened to Li Mubai?

Soon enough, Lin Jiajia came back with hot water. She didn't rush in, but took a careful look.

Li Mubai was actually staring at the screen in a daze.

She increased her footsteps and walked towards him. Only then did Li Mubai react and continue to manipulate the mouse.

"Come, give me your hand."

Li Mubai voluntarily extended his right hand first.

Watching Lin Jiajia rubbing his right hand, Li Mubai performed with poor acting skills.

Just as Lin Jiajia was about to let go of his hand, Li Mubai unexpectedly held onto her hand.

"Ding! Lin Jiajia blesses the host with +3 luck, host's luck value +1, protagonist Ye Feng's luck value -1!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for receiving a 100 yuan reward!"

Lin Jiajia was stunned for a few seconds, looking at Li Mubai's expression.

When you like someone, your eyes don't lie.

Lin Jiajia figured it out!

Li Mubai was pretending to be her!

She sighed inwardly, smiled without saying a word, and took the initiative to reach out and pull Li Mubai's other hand.

How could Lin Jiajia, who was supposed to cooperate with Li Mubai's performance, turn a blind eye?

Lin Jiajia playfully said, "Have you noticed how good I am?!"

Looking into Li Mubai's eyes, Lin Jiajia felt that she had guessed his intentions!

Li Mubai was doing this on purpose!

Li Mubai was completely indifferent in his heart!

Li Mubai didn't really like her!

The reason why he was acting like this now was solely because she was Lin Jiayin's sister!

Li Mubai wanted to retaliate against Lin Jiayin!

Perhaps he had the same intention when he had a cloud-like expression last night.

Li Mubai also wanted to retaliate against Yun Wuyue!

Countless thoughts rushed into Lin Jiajia's mind. She softly said, "Close your eyes, I'll wipe your face for you."

Lin Jiajia wasn't worried at all about whether Li Mubai's intentions could be dangerous!

On the contrary, she felt that an opportunity had come!

Since the moment she decided to win Li Mubai back, she and Lin Jiayin were already on opposite sides in a sense!

Now, wasn't this a chance for her to perform well?

Although Li Mubai was pretending, she wasn't. As long as she treated Li Mubai better than Yun Wuyue and Lin Jiayin, wouldn't she have a place in Li Mubai's heart?

As time went on, the deeper the roots would grow. Wouldn't she be able to threaten Lin Jiayin and Yun Wuyue's positions...

Then, take over their roles!

Lin Jiajia was very excited in her heart. She wiped Li Mubai's face more carefully and gently.

She decided to keep this secret of discovering Li Mubai's secret to herself.

No one would be told!

Quietly, she would astonish everyone!

By the time they realized it, Li Mubai would already be unable to leave her!

#3...

She decided to assist Li Mubai and actively help him do what he wanted to do.

Let Yun Wuyue and Yun Lingxing, the two sisters, become enemies. She would be quite happy to see that!

Soon enough, Lin Jiajia, with a smile on her face, finished wiping Li Mubai's face and brought over a small table, placing the computer on it.

"Shall we play the bottom lane?"

Li Mubai nodded, "I want to play Yasuo!"

"Okay." Lin Jiajia smiled happily, "I'll support you with the fat sister barrel."

"Mhmm."

Li Mubai instantly chose the female version of Yasuo from the world of "Lulu Lulu"!

PS1: Picture, female version of Yasuo.

PS2: I was too tired last night, so I made up for it this morning. Please give some support, votes, subscriptions, and reminders to update to Little White. Please, pretty please! Heart!
