Chapter 46 - Chapter 46: Xiaoman

"Oh, it was just a joke!"

Walnut became serious, a rare occurrence, and said earnestly, "Of course I'm willing to help, but I'm worried that she might not have much time left in her current condition."

Xavier nodded: "Her cancer cells spread very quickly."

After receiving a positive answer, Walnut fell into deep thought again.

Within two seconds, Hu Tao regained her usual cheerful demeanor and waved her hand, saying, "Well, go ahead. I'm not that stingy!"

Although he didn't know what Hu Tao was thinking in these two seconds, Xavier believed that she had her own thoughts and considerations.

After everyone went back, Xavier lay on the sofa and looked at the system status.

[Otherworld Encounter System]

[Host: Xavier]

[System Level: 3]

[Popularity: 17391/66666]

[Invited characters: Furina, Klee, Xiao Gong, Hu Tao, Zhongli]

[Abilities: Water Element Control, Fire Element Control, Ice Element Control, Blessing of a Thousand Winds]

At first glance, the rate of increase in popularity seems to have slowed down.

But if you think about it carefully, it is not the case. It is just because the upgrade enthusiasm has become greater now, so the growth seems to be slow.

This also made Xavier a little worried. It seemed that he needed to shoot more videos.

I am clearly not a worker, but how did I become one without realizing it?

Could it be that I am the legendary chosen worker?

In the evening, Xavier received news from Hua Ling that she had arrived home safely.

The next day, Xavier was awakened early by the chirping sounds.

"Send flowers, sending flowers will never go wrong!"

"Why send flowers? I'd rather send desserts. They can make people feel better after eating them."

"Is there a possibility that we can give them all away?"

After hearing what Xiao Gong said, Kurumi and Furina fell silent.

"It seems...it's not impossible." Furina laughed dryly.

Just at this time Xavier walked out of the room.

"Xavier, wake up! We are discussing what gift to buy for that little sister!"

As Xiao Gong spoke, he handed the bread and milk on the table to Xavier.

"Thank you, Xiao Gong, for preparing breakfast for me."

Xavier's face was filled with a bright smile, he was so happy.

"You're welcome. I heated up the bread for you, but Furina made the milk for you."

Xavier was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Furina would actually make milk for him.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Why don't you say thank you!"

Furina snorted, and although she felt a little embarrassed, she pretended not to care.

"Well, thank you, great Lady Furina."

Gradually, everyone arrived.

Xavier also bought gifts according to the plan the three of them had just discussed.

Flowers, desserts, and fruits.

Following the address given by the young guest of Wangsheng Hall, Xavier brought them to Jiangcheng Third People's Hospital and found the corresponding floor of the inpatient department.

"Ding Dong!"

What Xavier didn't expect was that as soon as he got off the elevator, he heard the doctor giving instructions to the family members.

"Anyway, be prepared. It'll probably only take a month at most..."

The doctor didn't finish his words, shook his head, and left.

The wife threw herself into her husband's arms, but dared not cry out loud.

Xavier sighed. The hospital is probably the place where the most suffering occurs in the world.

Arriving at Ward 32, Xavier knocked on the door politely.

"Come in..."

A relatively weak voice came from the ward, and Xavier opened the door.

This was a rare single ward with no one else in the room except a girl lying on the bed.

She was skinny, haggard, and her hair was completely shaved.

"Great Demon King Teacher, you are really here!"

Seeing so many people standing behind Xavier, the little girl's pale face finally showed some color.

She wanted to get up, but she was too weak and in pain from chemotherapy to do so.

"Don't move, you need to rest well!" Xiao Gong came to her side with something in his hand.

"Yeah! I understand!"

The little girl smiled brightly, perhaps she hadn't smiled so happily for a long time.

"Jiangjiang! The 77th head of Wangsheng Hall, Walnut, has arrived!"

As the finale character, Walnut appeared in front of her at the very end.

The moment she saw Walnut, there seemed to be light in her eyes.

Maybe he didn't expect the walnuts to be restored as in the video, or maybe the walnuts in front of him perfectly matched his imagination.

Whether it's voice, appearance, or behavior.

"Thank you, Master, thank you for coming to see me..." The little girl's eyes soon turned red.

"What are you doing? Don't cry in front of me, Walnut. I don't like seeing others cry!"

Walnut stood in front of her and did not show too much tolerance in her words just because she was a patient.

Because, this is Walnut.

She will joke with everyone equally and will not treat them differently because of their differences.

"Um!"

The young guest didn't say anything else, but the smile on his face became even bigger.

After a brief chat, everyone learned that her name was Chen Xiaoman.

She is 15 years old this year, and everyone present is older than her except Keli.

He was diagnosed with a malignant tumor half a year ago, and his condition worsened to this extent in just a few months.

Xiao Gong peeled some fruit for her and asked considerately, "Xiao Man, do you have any dietary restrictions?"

Xiaoman forced a smile and said, "No, the doctor said eating fruit can supplement vitamins and is good for the body."

"Then Keri, come and help your sister peel the fruit!"

As the little sun, Klee is of course indispensable in such matters.

Furina was quite free and was even playing Genshin Impact nearby.

This made Xavier very unhappy and asked, "Hey Fufu, are you here to play games?"

"What do you care about me? Can't I just play for Xiaoman to see?" Furina had a very legitimate reason.

Because of long-term chemotherapy and infusion, one of Xiaoman's hands has become swollen.

Games like Genshin Impact are no longer playable, and I can only watch videos occasionally.

She was already happy enough to watch the real-looking Furina playing games beside her.

Moreover, she could feel that Xavier had a good relationship with everyone and was not just an ordinary friend.

How could Hu Tao be happy to see Furina playing Genshin Impact?

"Furina, let me play for a while. Xavier won't let me play Genshin Impact at home!"

Hu Tao was about to pounce, but was grabbed by Xavier's collar.

"This account is for Furina to play with. You are not allowed to play with it."

"Why? This isn't fair. Zhongli, beat him up!"

"Master, from a common sense perspective, Xavier must have a deeper meaning behind what he did."

"You are so good, Zhongli, you actually spoke for an outsider. I will deduct your salary!"

Watching the quarrels and bickering among them, Xiaoman smiled more and more, and even her complexion looked much better.

Perhaps, even if I were to leave this world in the next second, I wouldn't have any regrets...
