The Tide Turned

Seeing the noodle shop owner, Yun Xi was slightly caught off guard. She hadn't expected the female shop owner to come to the school.

"Madame, you have to continue applying the medicine for its full course."

"Ah, I'll remember that." The lady gazed at her gratefully, then stuffed a large bag of things and a red envelope into her hand.

"These are some pastries and breakfast we've just prepared. We have a small business so there's not much we can repay you with. Don't laugh..."

Looking at the stuff in her hand, Yun Xi quickly pushed them away.

"Madame, you are too courteous. Me helping you was just a chance occurrence. It wasn't a doctor's visit. I can't accept this."

"No, you have to keep it. We are sincerely grateful."

"I accept your gratitude, but I really can't accept these things."
