Can't Disclose It

After Zhou Yun went to the mall and strolled around, she chose an art institution and rented a small room for half a month at a price above market rate. According to her estimation, half a month was more than enough to cure Xing.

When Auntie Wu brought Xing to the art institution, she asked in confusion, "Miss, what are you doing here? This institution seems to be the kind that teaches basic painting knowledge. Haven't you already learned it?"

Xing looked around sneakily and then hastily pulled Auntie Wu to locate the studio that Zhou Yun was in according to the directions drawn by Zhou Yun.

The moment she saw Zhou Yun, Auntie Wu was overjoyed. She immediately went forward and said happily, "Miss Zhou, it's you. You saved my Miss previously, and our Young Master is looking for you. He said he wants to repay you. I'll contact Young Master immediately and ask him to come over now."

As Auntie Wu spoke, she picked up her phone and was about to call Fu Sen. The next second, the phone appeared in Zhou Yun's hand.

Auntie Wu pointed at her phone, bewildered, and asked, "Miss Zhou, what do you mean by this?"

"Auntie Wu, there's something I want to clarify with you first." Zhou Yun smiled indifferently. "I plan to cleanse Xing of the poison in her body and restore her original appearance."

Before Zhou Yun could finish speaking, Auntie Wu's eyes were filled with tears. She went forward and wanted to pull Zhou Yun over to express her gratitude. However, Zhou Yun quickly retreated, making Auntie Wu miss. Auntie Wu could only awkwardly put down the hand that was suspended in mid-air.

"But there's one thing I hope that you can promise me," Zhou Yun continued.

Auntie Wu quickly smiled. "Let's not talk about one thing. Even if it's a hundred things, you simply have to give the word. Even if I can't do it, I will ask my Young Master to get it done for you."

"I want Auntie Wu to promise that you won't tell anyone about my treating Xing, including the Young Master you're talking about," said Zhou Yun calmly.

Auntie Wu looked apprehensive. Although she had taken care of Miss for so many years and Miss's family had always treated her as family, she was still the hired help.

Moreover, such matters that involved Miss's health and safety had always been handled by Young Master. If she kept mum, should something happened, how could she explain it?

Looking at the troubled Auntie Wu, Xing tugged at the hem of Auntie Wu's clothes and said sadly, "Auntie Wu, I don't want to be ridiculed and gossiped about like this all the time. I don't want to wear a hat and a mask every time I go out. I want to be like my peers and appear in public openly."

Auntie Wu looked at Fu Xing's pleading eyes and felt very sad, but she really had no choice in this matter.

"Since Auntie Wu feels that it's very difficult, then let's drop the matter of treating Xing. However, Auntie Wu, I have to remind you that if Xing doesn't receive treatment, she only has less than a year left to live. You have to think carefully," Zhou Yun said.

After saying that, in front of Auntie Wu, Zhou Yun put away the things she had just taken out, one by one, and then turned around to leave.

She looked at Zhou Yun anxiously, then at Auntie Wu with reddened eyes, and back at Zhou Yun who had already walked to the door.

Auntie Wu looked at the child she had brought up from a young age. Her heart ached as if someone was holding a knife and cutting her. Her Xing was only 12 years old and had been discriminated against and ridiculed by others. Now, she was facing death...

Auntie Wu gritted her teeth and blurted out, "Alright! Miss Zhou, I promise you that as long as you can save Miss, I won't tell anyone, including Young Master."

The corners of Zhou Yun's mouth curled up slightly. Then, she turned around and took out her things. She said to Auntie Wu, "Good! Then please help us to guard the door. The treatment will take about an hour."

Auntie Wu looked at Zhou Yun, then at Fu Xing, and thereafter left decisively.

Leaving a 12-year-old girl alone with a stranger was a huge risk for Auntie Wu.

It was only upon seeing the door close that Zhou Yun took out a folding bed from the small utility room and laid it out in front of Xing.

Zhou Yun then raised her head and said to Xing, "Xing, a little later, the treatment might hurt. Bite on the towel and bear with it. Don't make too much noise, understand?"

Only after seeing Xing nod did Zhou Yun let Xing lie down.
