Chapter 55: Chapter 55 Chat

After listening to her, Yan Mo raised an eyebrow and said, "Your thinking is quite unique."

"Hahaha, it’s not really that. Though I may not live life according to this idea, perhaps someday in the future, I might fall in love with someone. After all, who knows what will happen when it comes to feelings. Then it would be two people growing old together." Xia Yue said with a laugh.

"Indeed." Yan Mo nodded in agreement.

As the two were eating and chatting, a few onlookers were astonished to see the cold and stern boss actually having a pleasant mealtime conversation with someone.

Once Xia Yue finished eating, Yan Mo did as well.

"Are you going home now?" Yan Mo looked at Xia Yue and asked.

"I’m taking them for a walk to help digest." Xia Yue pointed to the Lion Cat and Spiritual Cat.

"I’ll join you. I’ll tell you about the reply I got regarding the material I submitted." Yan Mo said with a faint smile.

"Oh, sure." Xia Yue nodded, and went on walking around the mansion with the lion cat and the spiritual cat to aid digestion.

The cats were running up ahead while Xia Yue and Yan Mo walked behind.

"I had the materials you provided sent back to Kyoto under tight security. After discussing it with Commander Wei, he asked me to extend his deep gratitude for these materials. They’re important for the medical and technological research in our country and could potentially lead to significant progress." Yan Mo said.

"That’s great. I hope once the mini therapeutic device is developed, the cost of treatment won’t be too high. Otherwise, it wouldn’t provide much help to ordinary people." Xia Yue agreed, looking at him as she spoke.

"I will speak to Commander Wei about your request. You’re right. If it’s too expensive, it won’t be beneficial to the public," said Yan Mo, nodding in agreement.

"If I hadn’t been adopted by the Xia family when I was little, I’d probably be struggling for basic necessities. According to Xia Xi, I might have been married off by my own birth parents for a dowry.

Unlike now, where I have enough to eat, don’t have to stress about various things, and can live happily." Xia Yue said calmly.

Yan Mo silently listened to her without interruption.

"Quick question, you guys must have found where my biological parents are now. What was the situation back then?" Xia Yue suddenly became somewhat curious about the past.

"Hmm, the Xia family also found out, but they were a bit late and are planning to sue them." Yan Mo said, nodding at her.

"What happened exactly?" Xia Yue asked.

Seeing that Xia Yue was not overly emotional, Yan Mo began to recount the events,

"The couple at the time came to the city for work. The wife was a little capable and started working as a nursing assistant at the hospital where Madam Xia was admitted for childbirth.

When Madam Xia was admitted two months earlier than her due date, the wife herself was already eight months pregnant and about to be laid off. After all, the hospital was afraid that something might happen to her, and they did not want any trouble.

However, she did not take the situation lying down and felt that she could manage. She tried to protest, but the hospital staff ignored her and sent her away. Seeing Madam Xia admitted to the hospital with people taking care of her, and comparing that to her own dreary predicament, she became jealous.

Afterwards, she kept in touch with someone she knew at the hospital to get updates on Madam Xia’s condition.

Timing it right, she spent a large sum of money to give birth in the hospital a week ahead of Madam Xia.

Just three days after giving birth, instead of resting during her confinement period, she forced herself to work in the hospital, fighting off physical discomfort, waiting for Madam Xia’s delivery."
