QT: Against My Will

486 8.03 – Doing Errands With Stinky Bun – Monster Heist

Bing Shi gently brushed Stinky Bun’s unruly hair before the TV, and on a closer look, she noticed something peculiar happening to her son’s hair. A green shine seemed to emanate from it, “...” Do not tell her that he was about to take after her look. She turned him around, taking in his adorable features.

Stinky Bun looked up at her with a quizzical expression then turned back to the news on the TV. His chubby cheeks were like soft pillows, and his little nose twitched slightly as he breathed in and out. His tiny fingers were curled around his milk bottle, and his chest rose and fell in a steady rhythm as he sucked on the cocoa milk.

|”I no longer want you to share the same body with Silvia. Are you going to do something about it?”|

Xuan Mu’s thoughts reached out to Bing Shi’s mind, his voice was serious but not overly dramatic.

Bing Shi let his request for separation hang in the air for a bit before answering, |”I’m a mom now, I can’t watch over Silvia full time. I... Me and Dai An will take turns. I won’t allow Silvia to misbehave again.|

|”Bing Shi, that’s not what I meant. You two broke Silvia’s soul.”|

|”We did what?!”| The idea that they had broken Silvia’s soul was like a surprise party gone wrong. Xuan Mu’s accusation was unexpected and left Bing Shi feeling confused.

|”I either find you a new body with a soul or I’ll have to seal Silvia’s soul.”|

Bing Shi could sense the urgency in Xuan Mu’s voice, but she hoped for a little more leeway to find a solution, |”I’m close, I feel it. Give me more time, please. Please. Please. Please.”|

.....

Xuan Mu was dissatisfied with Bing Shi’s plea for more time. |”Three months, no more.”| He responded with a clear deadline.

Bing Shi carefully placed Stinky Bun on the couch, hugging him tightly before pulling away, “Mommy, needs to do some errands right now.”

Stinky Bun’s eyes widened with curiosity as he looked up at her. “Mommy, mommy?” Can Stinky Bun go with mommy? He asked, his voice filled with excitement.

Bing Shi pressed her lips together as if making a serious decision, “Alright, let’s go together.” She took Stinky Bun’s hand and they made their way out of the apartment complex, entering a small park that belonged to the fenced residency area.

“Mommy needs to find a four-leaf clover.” Bing Shi scanned the ground and picked up a three-leaf clover, “See this one, Stinky Bun? It only has three leaves. But a four-leaf clover has four leaves, and it’s very special,” she explained as they both began to look for the specific leaf.

Stinky Bun was initially enthusiastic about their search for a four-leaf clover, but as time passed, he grew restless and bored. Every time he picked up a bunch of clovers, Bing Shi would shake her head and say, “Not that one, Stinky Bun. We’re looking for a four-leaf clover.”

His enthusiasm waned with every passing moment, and he tugged on his mother’s hand, his little feet shuffling back and forth, “Mommy, mommy?” Can Mommy do the errand alone? Stinky Bun wants to go back home and watch the news.

“Oh? Okay,” Bing Shi said, “Mommy will finish the errand alone.” She accompanied him before the entrance of the apartment building, bending down to his level, “Can Stinky Bun make it home alone?”

Stinky Bun nodded his head vigorously, “Mommy, mommy!” Stinky Bun is a big boy!

“Do you know what you have to do as soon as you get home?” Bing Shi asked while raising her hands, her voice filled with amusement as she watched her son eagerly raise his dirty hands together with her.

Stinky Bun raised his hands, “Mommy mommy!” Take of my shoes! he exclaimed.

“...” Bing Shi beamed with pride, giving Stinky Bun a double high five. “That’s right! My little boy is getting smarter every day. Could you also wash your hands?”

Nodding, Stinky Bun trotted towards the security guard, who was watching over the entrance, his little hand waving in the air as he called out to him, “Daddy, daddy!” Hello, uncle! Stinky Bun is back!

As Stinky Bun approached the front doors, the guard’s stern expression softened into a warm smile. “Welcome back, young master,” he greeted the little boy. With a watchful eye, he observed as Stinky Bun made his way to the elevators, ensuring his safety every step of the way. It was evident that the guard was deeply committed to his duty of protecting the residents and their families.

As the guard closed the doors of the building, Bing Shi immediately went out of the space to do the actual ‘errand’ and meet her husband’s deadline.

Silvia had been living in a dream-like simulation for rehabilitation purposes, and Bing Shi would like to keep Silvia in this hibernation state at least until the situation around Riley’s and Damon’s deaths stabilized.

She was taken aback by what she saw as she no longer recognized the body she used to inhabit.

‘Oh, no. This looks worse than Riley’s itchy poison.’

Dai An creased her forehead, trying to keep Silvia’s eyes closed shut. She focused on healing her body, but the strange occurrence was preventing her from doing so, ‘~It’s a spell. Someone is trying to wake her up with force.’

‘Who could it be?’

‘~Isn’t it obvious?’ Dai An overextended Silvia’s magic powers to heal herself but it failed. Now, she could no longer take control of Silvia’s body when Silvia herself, was knocked out.

Bing Shi had to take action. Several individuals had the capability to cause this kind of damage. Her husband and Victor Egerton were her primary suspects.

|”Will I die if I try to move? Can I even move?”| asking Lu Kai, Bing Shi opened her eyes. She didn’t feel any pain and could only depend on her eyesight. Silvia’s body didn’t look the least bit movable.

|You are too far away for me to accurately gauge the situation without revealing my presence to others. Give me a moment, Nathaniel will be right there.|

|”No, this is not the time for accidental saving. Let’s meet up in the hospital since I’m going to end up there anyway.”|

Meanwhile, the running nurse tried to soothe Bertha. “She’s probably just coming down with a cold. There’s no need to make such a fuss.”

Bertha’s face turned red with frustration. “This is not just a cold. Please, you have to help her.”

As they entered the dorm room, the nurse gasped in shock, immediately realising that this was not just a simple fever. She immediately sprang into action, calling for an emergency and preventing Bertha from entering the room.

Bertha was beside herself with worry, tears streaming down her face as the nurse closed the door. “What’s happening to her?! Why did this happen?!” she asked the nurse frantically.

The nurse looked Bertha up and down, looking for similar symptoms to the person inside. “I’m not sure, but it looks like an infection. We need to get her to the hospital right away.”

Bertha felt a knot in her stomach. Why did this have to happen just when Silvia was showing signs of waking up?

Soon, a group of medics arrived at Silvia’s dorm room, dressed in protective gear and carrying equipment. They were led by a doctor who immediately assessed Silvia’s condition and gave instructions on how to proceed.

Silvia was then quickly wheeled out of the dorm room and to a medical facility that was equipped to handle contagious patients.
