Traveling back in time to take care of Sung Deok-sun

Chapter 22 Taking Down Liu Shuyu

"Shuyu, this..." Paula's dad was too embarrassed to ask, so he pushed Paula's mom over to ask Liu Shuyu.

"Auntie, I can't help with anything else, but you don't need to worry about the money." Liu Shuyu said this before they could speak, so as not to make them sad again if she said too much.

Upon hearing Liu Shuyu's words, Paula's parents' eyes widened as they looked at each other, their faces filled with a mixture of joy and disbelief. They never expected that Liu Shuyu, their neighbor who had only moved in recently, would be able to help them so wholeheartedly in such a short time.

They were also deeply moved, realizing that Liu Shuyu's generosity, philanthropy, and kindness towards their family were genuine, making him even closer to them than their own son.

After a night of waiting, things weren't as dramatic as they seemed. Grandma had finished her surgery and was recuperating in the hospital. Her bodily functions were recovering significantly, but she hadn't woken up yet. Bora's mom replaced Deok-sun and Yoo Seo-woo, having Yoo Seo-woo drive Bora's dad and Deok-sun home, since it was too late to get a taxi.

"Shuyu, thank you so much, thank you so much, thank you so much!" It was already past midnight when they were being driven home. Bora's dad was still holding Liu Shuyu's hand at the door, thanking him repeatedly. Even Deoksun could feel that her father's mood had changed so much because of Shuyu, and he even spoke with a smile.

Liu Shuyu smiled knowingly and chatted with Paula's father for a bit more. Although he wasn't the type to expect anything in return, who wouldn't appreciate the sincere gratitude of someone they had helped?

After all, he's just a kid! Hehe!

"Shuyu, thank you! Thank you for staying with me at the hospital to take care of Grandma, and for helping our family so much." Deok-sun watched Liu Shuyu take her father inside. Having basically figured things out, she still thanked Liu Shuyu as she came out to see him off.

"Deok-sun, you should go back to sleep. You've been taking care of Grandma for a long time, you must be tired," Liu Shuyu said to Deok-sun with concern.

"Okay, you should rest too, Seowoo." Deok-sun nodded happily. Deok-sun, who only ever wanted a little bit of care, was so easily satisfied. Just a word of concern from Yoo Seowoo was enough to make her feel like she was flying.

She went home happily, her face slightly flushed.

After returning home, Liu Shuyu went into the kitchen, made a late-night snack, and drove it to Paula's mother at the hospital...

......

The next day

"Really! Paula's dad?" Sunwoo's mom asked.

Sunwoo's mother, Dolphin's parents, Jungbong's parents, and Aze's father all gathered at Jungbong's house. Yesterday, things were urgent, and after borrowing money from each of the neighbors, Bora's father only had time to give a brief explanation. Now that things have settled down, the money is now owed to Yoo Seo-woo, so the money borrowed from these neighbors naturally needs to be paid back first.

The question above was asked by Sunwoo's mother after she came over this morning and heard Paula's father recount what had happened, and Sunwoo's mother showed a surprised expression.

Because Sunwoo's mother was struggling financially, she was the last to know. Paula's father was too embarrassed to ask her for money last night; she didn't have much money left besides a house, and he couldn't very well borrow her life savings...

"Yes, that's right. I never expected that Shuyu, so young, would be so kind and courageous. I could tell as soon as he arrived. He's such a good kid!" Paula's dad, no longer worried, started praising him enthusiastically.

Several neighbors couldn't help but smile as they watched Paula's father, who had become a fan of "Liu," rave about it.

"Oh my, I have to say your family is really lucky to have such a good kid like Shuyu. I'm saying, how about we name him Bora... or rather, Deoksun, to win Shuyu over!" Ms. Leopard teased Bora's father.

"Oh dear, what are you saying? How could our Deok-sun, with her pig brain, be worthy of Seo-woo!" Deok-sun, who was carrying breakfast, was standing outside Jung-bong's house. She had just overheard the leopard lady's teasing and was blushing a little. She was pushing open the door to deliver the breakfast when she heard her father's thunderous rebuke.

Paula's father was also stunned when he saw Deok-sun standing at the door, holding a bowl.

A sheep bleat sounded awkwardly.

"Deok-sun, listen to me~~~~"

"Dad~~~!"

The courtyard echoed with Bora's father's apologetic shouts and Deok-sun's resentful voice.

......

In Deok-sun's room, Deok-sun, holding a curling iron, was vainly trying to dress up. She spent ages picking out clothes but still couldn't find anything she liked, until...

"I'm going out!" Deok-sun said.

"Okay, go ahead." Paula's mom turned around, then quickly called out, "If your sister finds out you're wearing that, you're dead!"

"My sister drinks every Saturday, so I'll come back first! Hehe," Deok-sun said playfully, skipping away.

Deok-sun's mother looked helpless.

After some time, Grandma's condition stabilized, and she can now walk around the hospital yard on her own. Grandma is worried about her son's family and doesn't let them visit her often.

Deok-sun's family returned to their original routine.

As she went outside, she ran into Jung-hwan. Deok-sun excitedly greeted him, "Hey! Jung-pal! How are you?"

Jung-hwan didn't even have time to look before shouting, "We're going to be late! Let's hurry!" and ran off...

Deok-sun was speechless. Just as she stepped outside, she saw Sun-woo and happily swung her clothes around, asking, "These are new clothes, what do you think?"

"Isn't that your sister's? Hey, there are only two minutes left, hurry up!" Sunwoo looked up and saw it immediately, after all, Hutong Tie had a crush on Bora.

After saying that, he ran away without even looking at Deok-sun's expression.

"Good morning, Uncle!" Sunwoo ran to school like the wind...

Watching the man run past like the wind, Aze's father felt a little dizzy; he hadn't even seen who it was...

"Good morning, Uncle," Deok-sun, the ultimate underachiever, wasn't afraid of being late at all. She even greeted Taek's father as she walked, and saw Taek drinking his milk as he came out.

"Taek? When did you get back?" Deok-sun asked.

“Yesterday,” Aze replied simply, as always.

Before Deok-sun could continue speaking, Dong-ryong suddenly ran over, grabbed her hair, and shouted, "Special Forces, only one minute left! One minute!"

"Are you asking for it?!" Deok-sun said, waving her fist.

"Hey, Deok-sun! Hurry up and get to school, you're going to be late!" Liu Shuyu shouted as he ran out with his schoolbag and saw Deok-sun throwing a punch at the dollfish.

As a top student, being late is no big deal for him, which is the complete opposite of Deok-sun.

When Deok-sun saw Yoo Seo-woo, she grinned and nodded frantically. She grabbed Yoo Seo-woo and ran off. The little dragon didn't even have time to look back before they dashed away...

Taek watched Deok-sun run off with Yoo Seo-woo, then stood at the door, lost in thought...

Shuangmen Girls' High School

"You guys should have come earlier. Aren't you tired of getting hit on the head with golf clubs at the door every day?" Zhang Meiyu said to Deok-sun and Wang Zixian as she turned around.
