C7 Survival Crisis

"It wasn't that moron!" Mo Lingyan grunted.

The old man smiled and teased, "That kid is very gutsy. I'll have Uncle Wei teach him a lesson one day?"

"He can do whatever he wants. If he wants to be framed, then let him!" Mo Lingyan sulked. She was unspeakably cute. "I tried to do him justice but he did not appreciate it at all."

The old man's smile remained the same, "I don't think that he doesn't appreciate it, but he knows he has caused a lot of trouble by offending a very powerful person. He is just afraid they will cause you trouble. It's just that simple. Not to mention, this brat is quite level headed, he is aware of his situation."

"We are not fearful of the family Qi. Grandfather, if you say the word, family Qi will not dare touch him," Mo Lingyan insisted.

"That may not always be the case," The old man disagreed. "I can speak to him and it will indeed intimidate him. He will also respectfully promise me as well but that is all on the surface. Remember, he can also do harm in the dark."

Mo Lingyan was slightly shocked. "Does that mean Lee Yifann will not have a chance?"

"I can't answer that," The old man frowned. "Although he is courageous and brave, has justice in his heart but the fact is, he is still too inexperienced in this society. He does not know how sinister people can be. Perhaps this is one experience he can learn from. He can't be strong-willed in all circumstances."

"Being strong for a person can appear to have a sense of justice. However, all he has is courage and lacks intelligence or strategy. In the end, he will be the one to suffer."

"Without any background, he definitely won't be able to go against family Qi." Mo Lingyan started to worry about Lee Yifann's safety.

The old man smiled and sighed deeply, "You.. It was alright to help him, but helping too much may cause more harm to him. If we were to help, that would definitely be an easy task, all we need to do is to say a few words. However, to this little guy, we may be hurting him instead. If he receives too much help, he will not understand the greatness of heaven and earth. He may think he can do whatever he wants and offend anyone. Unfortunately, this world is not as simple as he thinks."

The thing is, he won't be able to grow if he doesn't experience any setbacks.

The old man actually admired Lee Yifann very much. He too, wanted to settle this matter directly, but he was well aware it would be harmful and useless. He could go and caution Qi. He could act nicely on the surface and act evilly in secret. That would be counterproductive. As a result, Lee Yifann may end up in a more dangerous situation.

His approach may be considered well-intentioned.

Mo Lingyan thoughtfully said, "I understand grandpa. You can only help people in moderation. If you help them too much, it will always be counterproductive."

The old man nodded in satisfaction, "As long as you understand, I didn't waste my energy in explaining it to you."

"Grandpa, family Qi is still looking for Lee Yifann. It seems like he wants to drive Lee Yifann to death. We cannot sit idly and not anything," Mo Lingyan said.

The old man thought for a moment, "Hm, although the little fellow is a bit reckless, but we can't allow a doctor with good character be ruined by those blackhearted people. Ah Wei, have some one keep an eye on the little guy discreetly. If someone wants to take his life then save him, otherwise, if it is a minor fight then let it be."

"Grandpa, are you sure it would be alright to do that?" Mo Lingyan asked worriedly.

"Did you just forget what I said? It will depend on how he handles this matter. If he can't even overcome this crisis, then it will be useless in helping. He can provoke Qi today, but in future, he may provoke someone else with a greater background," the old man explained slowly.

"Okay, I understand."

The old man stroked his granddaughter's head, showing kindness and gentleness in his eyes.

Then suddenly, his face turned pale and he put his hand over his chest.

Seeing him like this, Mo Lingyan immediately asked in a panic, "Grandfather, what's wrong?"

The old man sighed and shook his head, "Nothing, it is just old age."

Mo Lingyan quickly opened the window to let some fresh air in the car. At the same time, she stroked her grandpa's back so he could breathe easier. The old man's face quickly recovered. She looked up at the bodyguard who was sitting in the driver's seat. "Uncle Wei, start driving. Let's go back first!"

"Okay." Uncle Wei started the car. The car hurtled out like a sharp arrow with a roar.

After Lee Yifann left the Medical University, he stood on the street. He felt confused as he looked around.

He seemed to be out place in the city. He didn't know where to go.

"Crazy guy, what's wrong with you? Don't stand in the way!" A passerby trying pass through yelled at him.

Then Lee Yifann came back to his senses. He shook his head and breathed in. Now was not the time to be lost!

He took his wallet out and looked at it with a wry smile. He counted his money, it didn't even add up to a thousand yuan.

This amount of money wouldn't last long in the Luzhou City where the price of living and goods were high.

"Forget it. I'll stay in a small hotel first. Otherwise, I won't even have a place to stay." Either way, he needed to find a place to stay first, then he'll go and look for a job.

Washing his grievances was secondary. Solving his problem of survival was the first and most important thing to do.

He came to a very old neighborhood in the older side of the city. He knew there were several cheap hotels nearby. He couldn't afford to stay in those expensive hotels with the amount of money he has left.

"This should be the place." Lee Yifann said to himself after searching for some time. He saw a wooden sign with the words: Accommodation, hanging under a low roof beam.

Wow! In this day and age, in such a big city, there was a small battered tile house still standing. It was truly unbelievable.

Lee Yifann saw that the ground was full of dirt and a lot of garbage on the ground. He wasn't concerned about it and walked through the small tile house's entrance. He shouted towards the inside, "Hello, is there anyone here? I would like a room."

Then there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the tile room. A middle-aged woman walked out with mop in her hand. When she saw Lee Yifann, she smiled immediately smiled, "Staying? Please come in."

She put the mop aside, walked towards Lee Yifann and took the initiative to help with the suitcase. She had a very enthusiastic attitude, "Come, come! Young man, this way!"

Lee Yifann entered the house. The house was not large, it was about 70 to 80 square meters. The light in the house was somewhat dark, but it was quite clean. The place looked like it was cleaned frequently.

The middle-aged woman took out a small stool and cleaned it with a rag. She put the stool in front of Lee Yifann and said, "Young man, you must be tired. Take a seat."

Lee Yifann did not mind the dirt. He did not hesitate and sat down. He got to the point, "I wish to stay here."

A smile appeared on the woman's slight wrinkled face, "I know you're here to stay. This place is not easy to find. Come with me and I'll show you where you'll stay."

As they walked, she smiled and asked, "Young man, are you from here or....?"

"No, I'm not from here. I'm from the country." Lee Yifann interrupted with a smile.

"You are here to look for a job!" The woman said in a surprise.

"Kind of." Lee Yifann did not know how to explain his situation, so his replies were very vague.
