A Beta boy working part-time in another world

Seeing this scene made Ye Xu's back tingle. He knew that it was not easy for a woman to be pregnant, but seeing it with his own eyes was another matter.

It was like he didn't know that women could bleed so much at a moment like this.

When Leger arrived, he was also shocked.

"Sir, Gladys..."

"Still inside." Ye Sui replied, his eyes falling on the ground, where drops of blood were falling.

When a maid came over with hot water, Ye Sui handed her a bottle of pills and said, "Give it to Gladys and tell her to take it."

"Yes." The maid went in with the medicine.

In the room, Gladys endured the pain, her hair wet with sweat, and she clutched the quilt with a distorted face.

The doctor kept guiding her, "Take a deep breath, take it slow..."

But half an hour passed, the pain was getting worse, Gladys still couldn't give birth to the baby, and her physical strength began to fail.

Seeing this, Kelly opened the medicine bottle and fed Gladys a pill.

As the pill melted in her mouth, Gladys felt her strength gradually returning, even the pain was less, and her eyes gradually became clearer.

.........

"Mom, there was a super storm on the day I was born. I stopped breathing right after I was born, but why am I still alive?"

The eight-year-old girl lay in her mother's arms curiously, hoping that her mother would continue talking.

"Little fool, of course it was your Uncle Ye who saved you, so you were not declared a dead baby by the doctor."

Gladys touched her daughter's pale face and was extremely relieved that her daughter was fine, but she would have to endure the pain of illness for the rest of her life.

"Okay, Shulami, you have to rest, otherwise your body won't be able to take it."

"Okay, goodnight too, Mom."

Shulami kissed her mother and lay down in bed obediently.

Gladys checked that the window was secure before leaving her daughter's room and going back to rest.

The maid Klee followed Gladys, reporting on various matters of the gang today and helping Gladys prepare toiletries.

"Ma'am, the hot water is ready."

"Yeah, by the way." Gladys lay in the hot water and asked with narrowed eyes, "Is Ye back?"

"Not yet, but Mr. Legg is back with a batch of new medicines. Maybe the young lady's illness can be cured."

"up to you."

Gladys didn't force it.

In the past eight years, her daughter has not recovered under Mr. Ye's care. She has realized that her daughter's illness is not a simple matter. Even if there is medicine, it can only treat the symptoms and not the root cause.

When storm season comes, my daughter still suffers from severe pain from the attacks.

It was a rare good day in the Machinery City in the early morning.

Shulami came out of the doctor's office and made his way to his mother's study.

"Mother."

"How did you come?"

Shulami threw herself into her mother's arms and said, "The air quality is very good today. I want to go out for a walk. It's just for an hour. It will definitely not be dangerous."

Gladys pulled her daughter away sternly, "No Shulami, today is the exchange day and there are many people in the city, you can't go."

"But you promised me last year that if the weather was good on this year's exchange day, you would let me go out and play for an hour..."

Shulami looked at Gladys aggrievedly and begged her pitifully.

"Mom, I'm eight years old, but I've never been out once."

"You're not in good health."

“I will be careful,” Shulami assured her mother. “I will wear a filter mask and bring guards and maids with me. They will protect me.”

Gladys had a terrible headache.

She still had some work to finish, so naturally she couldn't leave the study to accompany her daughter out, but Ye Sui was not there at the moment, and Leige had to go discuss business with the city lord, so she had to consider this matter carefully.

Gladys asked Klee beside her, "Is Nessi here?"

Klee clicked on the gang's public internal membership list, saw Nessi's location and replied, "He is in the gang, ma'am."

"Call Nessi, and then pick a maid who can fight, and have the two follow Shulami."

"Okay, ma'am." Keli walked up to the young lady and took her hand. "Go ahead, young lady. I'll go and arrange for someone to protect you."

"Okay~" Shulami happily followed Keli away.

Exchange Day is a festival unique to the Machinery City.

On this day, every citizen in the city can buy the cheapest red salt.

In addition to buying salt, there are various small vendors in the city who collect items picked up from the garbage dump and sell them on this day every year.

Some streets are not only bustling, but also have street fights, and the winner will have the opportunity to get 100 grams of red salt as a reward.

Often, those who are desperate and have no other options will fight to the death in street rings.

The maid Marcia bought a drink for the young lady. When she turned around, she found that the young lady was gone and her face changed.

"Miss! Miss Shulami!"

Marcia was walking through the crowded streets. She saw Nessi, the guard who was protecting the young lady. She thought the young lady was with him and ran over with joy.

"Where is Miss?"

Nessi asked Marcia in return, "The young lady is not at your place?"

Marcia had never been so frightened before. She ignored Nessi's words and started looking.

Miss, nothing can happen.

Nessi also realized the seriousness of the situation.

The lady is lost.

"Fuck!" he cursed and started looking.

On the other side, Shulami, who was pushed away by the crowd, looked at the dirty and messy street in front of him and swallowed in fear.

She remembered that she was originally on a very clean street, not here. This place was too dirty. There were rotting animal carcasses on the corners, and the passers-by made Shulami even more scared.

She didn't dare to stay any longer, but she didn't know which road was safe, so she decided to take a gamble and walk towards the widest one.

But after walking for a while, Shulami became even more scared.

Someone is following her.

Shulami looked back and saw a very tall, shabbily dressed man. His face was covered with dirt, and only a pair of listless eyes were staring at Shulami.

"Little girl, you are a rich lady, right?"

The man cornered Shulami and drew a machete from his waist.

"I haven't eaten such tender meat for a long time. It must be delicious."

Shulami didn't dare to speak, and quickly pressed the device on his wrist to activate the protective shield.

The man knew that this thing, a protective shield, could block quick attacks, but it also had a drawback, which was that it could only last for five minutes.

He swung the knife down, and the knife made a buzzing sound due to the vibration of the protective shield.

Shulami dodged desperately, rolling and crawling towards a fork in the road.

"Help!"

She knocked on the door of the first house, but the old woman inside had locked it and didn't want to cause trouble.

Shulami had no choice but to keep running, but the man sped up, slashing the girl's back again and again.

Under continuous attacks, Shulami saw that the energy of his protective shield was running out.

She ran towards the nearest house, but the man slammed the door shut.

Shulami didn't know why they turned a blind eye. After knocking on the doors of seventeen houses in a row and being rejected, her legs went limp from exhaustion and she fell to the side of the narrow road.

Da da da......

The man followed closely behind, his eyes flashing with desire for food.

"Be good and don't move. It won't hurt after just one cut."
