Yuan Si left the hospital, got on her bicycle, and headed straight for Li Mubo's house.
By the time she arrived, another twenty minutes had passed.
Li Mubo rented a room in a typical courtyard house. Nine households shared the small courtyard, and his family lived in a little room tucked away in a corner.
When Yuan Si arrived, the old woman was the only one in the room.
"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be at home? Why did you come running over?" The old woman was quite surprised to see her daughter.
"How could I not come check on you? I got home from work and you were gone. Did you expect me not to worry?" Yuan Si said, stepping into the room and sizing up Li Mubo's home.
"What's there to worry about? I'm a grown woman, it's not like I'm going to get lost. By the way, didn't Aunt Liang tell you where I was going?" the old woman asked.
