Capítulo 12: Chapter 12: Rescue (2)_1
The onlookers, seeing there was no more excitement to watch, also dispersed one by one, leaving only the heart-wrenching sobs echoing.
"Grandfather, your granddaughter is useless, your granddaughter is useless and can't save you..."
Liyan struggled to crawl to her grandfather's side, with tears of despair dropping one by one onto him. The brutal death of her parents had forced her naive self to grow up quickly. Having barely escaped with her grandfather, he was now about to leave her as well.
She didn't want to live alone in this world! If her grandfather couldn't survive, she'd join him in death so they could reunite as a family on the Netherworld Road...
Liyan had resigned herself to death, tightly clutching her grandfather's hand, no longer caring about her surroundings as her desperate eyes grew hollow and lifeless.
This scene caught not only the eyes of the passersby but also the Mo Family who had just arrived at Longshi Town!
...
Rundown Temple on the Outskirts of Longshi Town.
Outside the temple, Mo Yan was attentively tending to the stove, frying medicine. Seeing the medicine pot bubbling, she did not lift the lid; instead, she reduced the firewood and let it simmer on low heat.
"Benefactor Sister, please go and rest. Yanzi will watch over the medicine!"
Liyan, eyes red with emotion, crouched down beside Mo Yan, full of gratitude.
Mo Yan smiled, "Don't call me 'Benefactor Sister;' it feels so awkward. You are the same age as Xin Er, so I'll boldly accept your call of 'Sister Yan'!"
"That's not right, that's not right. For the great kindness and debt you have shown Grandfather and Yanzi, even if Yanzi were to become a servant or a handmaid, it wouldn't be enough to repay you!"
Liyan frantically waved her hands, firmly disagreeing.
If not for the benefactor's family bringing her grandfather here, bustling about to fetch a doctor from the town, she had no idea if she and her grandfather would have survived until tomorrow. On their journey, they met countless people, but only the Mo Family was willing to spend the money and effort to help them.
Mo Yan, somewhat flushed by the little girl's grateful gaze, coughed and said, "It was fate that we met, and my father willingly helped you both. You don't need to be like this."
It was her father who was adamant about helping. She had simply not objected, and she wasn't exactly willing in her heart. For one thing, their own family was also fleeing hardship, so offering help was challenging; for another, with strangers around, she had to be even more careful to avoid exposing the secret of Space.
However, since they had already saved them, she would not stand idly by, especially when helping others could upgrade Space.
The little girl was unaware of her "impure motives," and seeing that Benefactor Sister spoke earnestly, she dared not object further and weakly called out "Sister Yan."
Mo Yan touched her head, feeling somewhat emotional. Despite being the same age as Xin Er, Liyan had suffered so much misfortune in just a few days!
Originally, the Li family lived in a small town in the South, running a small business. They weren't very wealthy, but they were well-off. However, not long ago, bandits had raided their town, killing many. It was Liyan's grandfather's foresight that allowed them to escape early with her parents and themselves, heading straight for Jing City. Unfortunately, they soon encountered robbers on the road, not only being robbed of all their valuables but also losing her parents to murder. It was with great difficulty that the grandfather managed to escape with his granddaughter, only to fall ill soon after.
The double blow of losing his son and suffering from illness, along with the lack of medicine and food, progressively worsened Grandfather Li's condition, ultimately leaving him bedridden, leading to the earlier scene at the entrance of the town.
Liyan was a child of pure heart and filial piety. Mo Yan didn't regret not stopping Mo Qingze from saving them. If she weren't limited by ability, she might have even taken the initiative to help. They were also lucky to find kind-hearted people to go into town and get a compassionate doctor. Otherwise, they wouldn't have had the money to enter the town, let alone hire a doctor or buy medicine.
Fortunately, Grandfather Li's illness wasn't too severe, and he could slowly recover after a few doses of medicine; otherwise, they truly wouldn't have known what to do. At this time, Mo Yan didn't know the surprise that the Li family's grandfather and grandchild, whom she had casually saved that day, would bring to her when she created her business empire in the future...
