706. What He Couldn't Settle It, Someone else Would

Marco stopped his meticulous movements and folded the handkerchief neatly between the corners.

After that, nico turned to look at Will and said slowly,
"Why have you become like my mother?"

Will lowered his head slightly and did not say anything else.

Marco handed him the handkerchief. "Get out."

"Yes."

When Mu Jungkook woke up, he was in the hospital.

It was a noisy, common six person ward.

His head felt heavy. He turned around in a daze and saw a child.

The child laid on the hospital bed and looked at him with his round eyes. There was curiosity on his chubby face.

They stared at each other. After a long time, the child said, "Big Brother, your hand is bleeding."

Mu Jungkook looked down at his wound.

Blood had seeped out once again, through the white gauze wrapped around his arm.

Mu Jungkook frowned and sat up.

The child looked at him and said, "Big Brother, you look so pale. Does it hurt a lot?"

Mu Jungkook smiled and did not answer.

He looked around, and found nothing.

At this point, Mu Jungkook's upper body was bare. He was wearing a pair of straight black trousers, and apart from the white bandages, there was nothing covering his body.

The various scars on his body attracted the attention of the patients and their families in the ward.

Mu Jungkook got onto his feet. The child sat up as well, looking at Mu Jungkook in surprise. "Big Brother, don't you feel cold?"

It was January and the weather was cold.

Mu Jungkook shook his head. "No."

Mu Jungkook took out his wallet and drew out two red notes. "May I borrow your phone for a while?"

The child looked about seven or eight years old, so of course he knew what money was.

He blinked and pushed the note back to the man. "No, mom said that you can't take someone else's money. You can use the phone if you want."

Immediately, he reached under his pillow for his phone.

"Little brother," a woman stopped the boy. "Let this big brother go to the nurses' station to make a call. It's not easy for your family to pay for expensive phone bills!"

Expensive?

It was just a call, how expensive could it be?

Mu Jungkook glanced sideways and realized that the woman had been observing him.

A sense of realization hit him, and he smiled bitterly.

Could it be that she saw the numerous scars on his body and thought that he was a bad person?

When the child heard this, he replied, "not really. mom has always told me it's a joy to help others."

"Helping others is a joy, but it also depends on whether you're able to help." The woman wore a mask and used her hair to cover her face. "Young lad, you should go to the nurse's station. This child has been hospitalized for diabetes. In order to pay for his treatment, the family is in financial difficulties. You..."
