The Struggles of Being A Mother of Villains - Chapter 211
Chapter 211
Fei Yutong had been busy preparing at school all along, her program being a solo piano performance. Her attire had been arranged by her mother well in advance. Meanwhile, when Xiao Yu arrived at the school, she received a call from Xu Haotian, who informed her about the car trouble.
Xu Haotian’s voice sounded troubled as he spoke, “I’m not sure what’s wrong with the car, and I’m not even sure if it’ll start. Madam, what should we do?…ah, should I call Uncle Lin to come?”
Before Xu Haotian could finish his sentence, Xiao Yu interjected. “Oh, it’s no big deal! We’ll just hail a ride-hailing service later. I still have enough money for that.”
Xu Haotian: “…”
This was putting him in a tight spot. He and Uncle Lin, along with everyone else, had thought of all possible ways but they had never considered using a ride-hailing service. Nevertheless, the task had to be accomplished, so he awkwardly suggested. “How about I call Uncle Lin?”
Xiao Yu waved her hand dismissively. “No need for that. We can use a ride-hailing service, and if that doesn’t work out, we can take a taxi. Besides, I feel bad bothering Uncle Lin. We’ll manage on our own!”
Right, there were also taxis in this world. As a poor person who has never been able to take a taxi, Xu Haotian was still working hard. “…no, I think it’s safe to take his car.”
Xiao Yu still refused, saying. “Uncle Lin is also busy. Usually, they transfer you over to my side for my convenience. It would be quite awkward for me to trouble Uncle Lin in this situation. Also, just how bad is this?”
Xu Haotian was now feeling even more anxious! Uncle Lin had already set off, so how could they now use a ride-hailing service? How was he going to explain this when Uncle Lin arrived later?
Ai, what should he do? How could he make Madam accept Uncle Lin’s arrival?
The matter that made Xu Haotian grapple with a dilemma was easily solved by Fei Yutong.
When Xiao Yu went backstage to find Fei Yutong, the latter heard about this matter and exclaimed in surprise. “Ah! it’s going to be difficult to get a ride-hailing service from the school tonight. We’re quite far from the city, and there’s a party going on with students from other schools and parents from our city attending. It’ll be tough to find a taxi, let alone book a ride-hailing service online.”
After hearing this, Xiao Yu with a straight face turned to Xu Haotian and calmly said. “Check if Uncle Lin is available to pick us up late.”
Xu Haotian: “…oh!”
Behind the scenes at the university, numerous performances were underway, ranging from solo acts to group performances, including singing, dancing, skits, acrobatics, and more. Given the multitude of programs, there were bound to be overlaps, particularly between the art college and the music department, such as with Fei Yutong’s solo performance and Xie Haiyun’s act.
In the backstage area, such a department had designated resting spaces, so it was inevitable for Xiao Yu to encounter Xie Haiyun…and her mother.
