When she woke up again, her vision was still pure white.
Yu Yao thought that she had returned to the damned mental hospital again, but the pajamas she was wearing were made of high-quality fabric, and the mattress on her bed was clearly luxurious.
Even private hospitals did not provide such treatment.
Yu Yao sat up and looked around. Although the room was mostly white, it looked more like a hotel than a hospital.
There was still a needle attached to her hand. It seemed that she had been treated while she was unconscious.
After getting off the bed and moving around, the door opened a crack and the Maine Coon squeezed inside.
“It’s you.” Yu Yao sat on the carpet and rubbed the cat’s head happily. “Thank you for coming to see me and thank your master…”
“His master wants to hear you thank him personally.”
Yu Yao lifted her head, her gaze running up that pair of long legs to the man’s face.
Qiao Lian was not dressed in a suit or leather shoes like last night. His hairstyle was not carefully styled, and his short hair was casually covering his forehead. He looked like a youthful university student.
Yu Yao did not try to hide the amazement in her eyes as she openly admired the beauty in front of her.
She was not stingy with her praise. “You’re very handsome today, Brother!”
This was definitely not the reaction Qiao Lian had been expecting. For a moment, he was also thrown off balance by this girl who didn’t play by the rules.
“Looks like I’ll have to thank you first. Thank you for your praise.”
Yu Yao giggled. “You’re welcome.”
Qiao Lian stepped aside and said, “Room service has brought breakfast. The doctor has instructed us to provide you with suitable food. Are you hungry?”
“I’m so hungry that I could swallow a cow!”
Qiao Lian thoughtfully closed the door for Yu Yao and waited for her to wash up before coming out to eat.
After Yu Yao finished her breakfast, a private doctor came over and did a simple checkup for her.
There were still some sedatives left in her body, but she would be able to metabolize them. There was no need for excessive treatment.
Of course, following his professional ethics, the doctor suggested that Yu Yao go to the hospital for a more detailed examination.
Like a real brother who was worried about his sister’s health, Qiao Lian discussed it with the doctor for a while.
After sending the doctor away, he said to Yu Yao, “I think it’s safer to go for a more thorough examination. What do you think?”
Yu Yao did not understand the man in front of her. She did not even know his name.
This made her feel very strange. Taking her away from the mental hospital could be considered the man’s daily act of kindness, but was there a need for him to go this far?
Was he addicted to doing good deeds? But like he had said, he was not a good person.
“Hey, you’re not really going to be my brother, are you?”
Yu Yao tried to sound him out. “Wake up. It’s not a smart habit to let someone call you brother.”
“Why would you think that?” Qiao Lian shook his head and smiled as he tapped the Maine Coon’s head. “All I did was save a stray cat.”
Save a stray cat?!
Yu Yao instinctively wanted to tell him that he was talking nonsense, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that there was nothing for her to refute. For someone like him, hiring a doctor for a girl and treating a stray cat was equally insignificant.
However, a person who meddled in the affairs of a stray cat could be either a warm-hearted animal rights activist or a two-legged beast who had designs on those cats!
Yu Yao leaned forward and moved closer to Qiao Lian. Their eyes met and neither of them backed down.
Her voice was soft, as though she were a cat testing its territory. “So, after rescuing the stray cat, do you plan to set her free, or will you tame her into a domestic cat?”
Qiao Lian’s eyes gradually turned dark. He had already looked through Yu Yao’s information. She had just celebrated her 20th birthday and had never had a boyfriend. Her living environment was also very simple. She was supposed to be young and innocent, so how could she display such a seductive side so easily?
However, this did not seem like a good time to explore the mysterious contrast in her personality.
He didn’t answer her directly and just said meaningfully, “I’m a businessman. I never do business if it will end in a loss.”
“Is that so?” Yu Yao suddenly smiled brightly and stood up to put some distance between the two of them. “It’s a pity that cats aren’t good partners. Don’t you agree, little cutie?”
She raised the Maine Coon and waved a paw at Qiao Lian. The cat meowed in agreement.
Qiao Lian gently patted the cat’s paw and sighed. “He’s helping an outsider.”
After staying in the hotel for another sumptuous lunch, Yu Yao planned to leave.
Since she had come to a new world, she naturally had to start a new life. She was filled with disgust towards the Yu family because of the book and didn’t want to have anything to do with them anymore. However, her original identification and school records were still with the Yus, so she had to collect those things.
As they were saying their goodbyes, Qiao Lian smiled and asked, “After eating and living here for free, should the stray cat leave the humans who helped her without feeling any reluctance?”
Yu Yao went forward and gave him a hug. “I have no choice. Stray cats love freedom.”
Qiao Lian patted the girl’s back. After the short hug, he handed Yu Yao a business card.
“I hope that this stray cat will never get hurt again.. If it does, there will be ways for it to seek help from a kind human.”
