"I'm an intern doctor, actually."
"Huh? Doctor? You're a medical student … "
"Mhm." Huo Mien nodded. "That's amazing.
Let me tell you, we need Chinese doctors like you overseas who can open their own private clinics because it's really hard to get a number here … It's different from our country. Look at you, why do you have to suffer? Why don't you abort the child and break up with your boyfriend? I'll introduce you to someone else. Let me tell you … I have a friend whose son is really outstanding. He works in Sydney as a financial planner and earns tens of thousands a month. He has a car and a house, and he's already an Australian citizen. Do you know what's so good about this place? It's because there are so few people in Australia that the government encourages people to have more children. The more children you have, the more subsidies you get. Isn't that great? "
"Um …" Huo Mien suddenly didn't know what to say.
"What do you think of my suggestion, girl?"
"Big Sis, I appreciate your kindness, but I can't abort the child. It's my child after all. I'm not that heartless."
"That's easy. Why don't your husband come down and I'll find someone to adopt the child for you? Otherwise, you won't be able to find a good man to marry."
"I don't want to find one. I've never thought about it."
"What are you talking about? You're still young."
"I'm not young anymore. I'm 27, almost 30," Huo Mien corrected her.
"You're still young, silly girl … You should make plans for yourself while you're still young."
Huo Mien suddenly felt uncomfortable lying. No wonder people always said that people shouldn't lie so easily.
One lie had to be covered up with a hundred lies.
She really wanted to tell her sister the truth. Not only was she old, but she also had two cute daughters.
But then, she thought about it and decided to continue chatting with her sister. It wasn't true anyway.
"Young lady, listen to me. You're right …"
"Big Sis, how did you come to Australia? From your accent, you sound like you're from Shandong."
"Yeah, how did you know?" Her sister was surprised.
"Because I've been there before. The people there are very simple and warm."
"Yes, my hometown is Yanggu in Shandong Province … the hometown of martial arts. Have you heard of it?"
"Yes, yes, it's a very famous place." Huo Mien nodded.
"Me … I've been here for seven or eight years. At first, my daughter came here because she was gambling. Then, she settled down here and found a Chinese husband. Later, she gave birth to a child and had no one to take care of it, so I came here to help. Later, when the child went to school, I had nothing to do, so my daughter opened a small shop for me to pass the time."
"Is your husband here too?" Huo Mien asked.
"My husband … died 15 years ago in a car accident."
"Oh, I'm sorry, big sister. I didn't mean it."
"It's fine. Let's talk about you. If you're willing, I'll tell my old friend that both mother and son are in Sydney tomorrow. What do you think?"
"Ahem … Big Sis, I'm done eating. I'm going to wash the dishes."
"Let me do it. You're pregnant now. You can't do this." Everyone snatched Huo Mien's bowl away. It could be seen that he was really a very warm-hearted person.
"Big Sis, I'm a little tired. I'm going to sleep for a while. I'll be fine after a short nap."
"How can that be? Go upstairs. That's my bedroom. It's clean. It's not only dirty here, but it's also cold."
"It's really fine. I'll stay here until daybreak."
"You're leaving at daybreak? Why are you in such a hurry? Where are you going now? "
"I'm going back to China to find my family," Huo Mien said.
Just as she finished speaking, before Big Sister could reply, the sound of noisy footsteps suddenly came from outside the door …
"The camera saw her disappear around here. Search every house. You must find her." The foreign man's voice came from outside.
Huo Mien was shocked and quickly got up.
