My Co-renting Lady Boss Chapter 137 - 0137 Shuang’er and Fei’er

Chen Shuang’er quickly shook her head and said, "Wei’er, I just managed to get this money by using the na of your boyfriend. The 20,000 yuan is already enough, I can’t possibly take yours as well!"

"I’m certainly not her boyfriend."

Just as Xia Wei’er was about to explain, Tang Ming interrupted her first, causing Xia Wei’er to mutter to herself and feel utterly frustrated. How could he react even faster than I do, almost as if he couldn’t wait to disassociate himself from ! Am I really that unworthy of him?

Chen Shuang’er simply smiled and said nothing, but Xia Wei’er then asked, "Your hand injury looks quite severe, how about going to the hospital to have it checked out?"

Chen Shuang’er replied, "I’m fine, I used to get injuries like this often. I just need to lie down at ho, and I’ll be fine."

"It might be a good thing your hand got injured, so you can steal less money from others."

Tang Ming said from the side.

Upon hearing this, Xia Wei’er also rembered what Brother Huo had said earlier and wondered if Chen Shuang’er really could have stolen Brother Huo’s money. Thinking about it, it seed very likely!

When Tang Ming said this right to her face, Chen Shuang’er’s expression darkened, showing a bit of displeasure.

"You should reduce your contact with her in the future; she truly is a female thief. She almost stole from last ti."

Tang Ming murmured softly beside Xia Wei’er.

Xia Wei’er was aware of Chen Shuang’er’s situation. Although Chen Shuang’er was reluctant to have it ntioned, Xia Wei’er could no longer be so considerate at this mont.

"Tang Ming, Shuang’er is not a bad person, she has her difficulties, which is why she steals money, and Shuang’er only steals from bad people and never takes money from ordinary folk or good people,"

Xia Wei’er explained.

Tang Ming, skeptical, replied, "Everyone who is a thief says that. Do you think I look like a bad person?"

"You... she might have misunderstood; at first, even I thought you were a bad person!"

Xia Wei’er continued to explain, "Shuang’er does this because her twin sister suffers from a strange skin disease that prevents her from going out or working. She has to stay ho and needs a large amount of dication every day."

"There’s such a strange disease?"

Tang Ming, who was very knowledgeable about pharmacology, had never heard of such a strange disease before. "Could it be just an excuse she’s made up?"

"The disease prevents her from being exposed to sunlight; otherwise, her skin will burn and her life could be endangered. Plus, her sister likes to conduct scientific research. To keep her occupied, Shuang’er has also bought her many pieces of laboratory equipnt. Tell , could soone with a cruel heart do so much for her own sister?"

Xia Wei’er looked at Tang Ming as she explained.

Tang Ming didn’t respond, and as Xia Wei’er walked, she continued, "Shuang’er often has to steal things, and every ti, she must gather at least 500 yuan because that’s the cost of each of her sister Fei’er’s treatnts. If they have more money, they can buy more experintal equipnt for Fei’er, who doesn’t have friends and only has her sister. Fearing that Fei’er could beco depressed from staying at ho for long, Shuang’er fully supports her experints and satisfies all her needs."

"Even though their sisterly love is deep, being a thief is not justifiable. Can’t she find so other way?"

Tang Ming, visibly moved, softened his tone, but the nas of the sisters... Alone, each na sounded nice, but together, ’Twin Fly’...

"How old is Shuang’er anyway? Besides stealing, what else can she do to earn so much as 500 yuan?"

Xia Wei’er also said with so sympathy.

Suddenly, Tang Ming rembered that last ti, Chen Shuang’er had followed him with the aim of getting 500 yuan. It was all for her sister! He felt his impression of Chen Shuang’er changing significantly.

"Shuang’er, after saying so much to Tang Ming, don’t mind it, okay!"

Xia Wei’er apologized to Chen Shuang’er.

"It’s okay, I’ve long been used to being treated like a thief."

Chen Shuang’er spoke with a sowhat lancholic expression.

"How about I give you this money, then you can do more for Fei’er."

Xia Wei’er took out 20,000 cash from her pocket.

"No, I’m lucky to have 20,000 already. I heard your house was demolished, and they haven’t compensated you yet. You should take this 20,000 back ho for your mom. Your dad isn’t well, and you’ll need money later on."

Chen Shuang’er looked at Xia Wei’er and asked, "I heard they compensated you with ten million, I thought it was true, but earlier I heard you speaking with Brother Huo, it seems like you didn’t get the money?"

"Exactly, it wasn’t honored; they gave a voided check. Those demolition guys are just plain evil."

Xia Wei’er got increasingly angry as she spoke about this.

"Ah, that Brother Huo is so wicked, he just demolished another family’s house. He also goes around the shanty area threatening others, saying if they don’t sign the contract, there won’t be any compensation at all. I saw how evil he was, so I wanted to steal his money."

Chen Shuang’er, caught up in her explanation, accidentally touched her wound and imdiately grimaced from the pain.

Tang Ming sighed and asked, "Is your hand broken or fractured? Does it hurt a lot?"

"It’s nothing, I’m used to getting beaten; pain is sothing I’m accustod to as well. A bit of endurance and it’ll be alright."

Chen Shuang’er said nonchalantly.

Tang Ming teased, "Getting beaten often ans your skills aren’t up to par; how you keep getting caught and beaten—it’s no surprise. I told you last ti to practice more, you really should believe ."

Upon hearing this, Chen Shuang’er huffily turned away from Tang Ming, clearly a bit angry.

Seeing them bickering, Xia Wei’er couldn’t help but say to Tang Ming, "Tang Ming, stop teasing Shuang’er; she’s a pitiful person."

"Alright, I’ll help this pitiful person then."

Tang Ming walked up to Chen Shuang’er, grabbed her hand, and said, "Let have a look."

Chen Shuang’er grimaced in pain, her face turning ashen, wondering if Tang Ming was intentionally tornting her.

After checking repeatedly, Tang Ming said, "It’s dislocated; it will be fine once it’s popped back into place. Just bear with it a little."

"Ah..."

Before Chen Shuang’er could speak, Tang Ming had already made his move! With a swift motion, he pushed her hands hard, and with a "pop", her dislocated arm was back in place.

Chen Shuang’er was in so much pain that tears almost ca out, but she endured it. Monts later, she tried moving her arm and discovered, to her amazent, that it was fine!

Tang Ming glanced at Chen Shuang’er and began,

"You should stop stealing for a while. I’ll write you a prescription soon; go and get so dicine to treat it. Injuries to the hand can be minor or serious, and if it’s severe, you could even end up disabled."

"Right, Shuang’er, you need to take care of yourself. Those 20,000 should be enough for you and Fei’er to live on for a while, so don’t go causing more trouble."

Xia Wei’er also began persuading.
