Country Y.
A girl that looks like she was 18 years old stood in the park and stretched while she took a deep breath.
"Ahh... I finally get to come out of the house..."
The girl walked around the park and heard someone talking. She was going to walk away until she heard a lady crying. She then walked towards the lady who had ended the call. Seeing that the lady was going to pass out, she dashed towards the lady and caught her in time before the lady crashed onto the ground.
"Hey! Can you hear me?" She gently shook her as she tried to help her up.
She brought her towards a nearby bench and felt her pulse. The lady's pulse was regular, and she probably fainted due to shock. When she knew that there was nothing wrong with the lady's health, she carried her back to her house as it is too hot to leave the lady there.
When the girl reached her house, she placed her on the bed. While waiting for her to wake up, she picked up the phone that the lady was talking on earlier and dialed to the person she last called.
The phone answered immediately, and the person on the other end of the phone responded with a series of French.
"Hello! Wifey! Don't worry! I will think of a way to settle the problem! Dammit! That idiot tricked me! How dare he lie to us and set up a trap in the contract! I will make him pay after we solve this issue! Hello? Wifey, are you listening? Hello?"
Seeing that the man on the other end of the call has finally finished his speech, the girl said calmly in French, "Hello, the owner of this phone just fainted..." before she could even finish her sentence, the man raised his voice and asked hurriedly, "What?! My wife fainted?! Is she alright?! where is she?!"
"She is at my house now. I will send you the address in a moment. She is alright, and she will wake up soon. Please come and fetch her back."
"Okay! Okay! I am coming now! Thank you!"
A while later.
The girl left the room to get some water when she saw that the lady was about to wake up.
The lady woke up and looked around confusedly. She then saw a girl walked in with a cup of water. The girl later told her to have some water. However, the lady looked very cautious and hesitant.
The girl looked at the lady's eyes and realized that the lady was confused as to why she is here. She then explained to the lady why she is here.
Relief took over the lady, and she drank the cup of water.
"Thank you for helping me! May I know what's your name?" The lady thanked her gratefully.
"My name is Mu Xi Xing." Mu Xi Xing said her name in Chinese calmly and realized that the lady would not understand what her name was. She then added on in French, "You can call me Star. I called your husband and told him to pick you up."
"Alright! Thank you! My name is London." London spoke and hesitated before continuing, "Uh... Do you mind telling me why your name is in Chinese? Because you sound perfectly like a French and not a Chinese."
Mu Xi Xing looked into London's eyes, and when she saw that London did not have any bad intentions, she then told her, "I was born in Country X, but my health was feeble since I was born, so my father brought me here to get treated. I only fully recovered recently, today's the first time I get to go to out of the house. I spent eleven years of my life in this house, so I made use of it by learning different things, including French."
"Wow! Even my children can't speak French this well." London looked slightly stunned by the fact that Mu Xi Xing could speak French so well when she learned them on her own.
Mu Xi Xing continued to look at London's eyes, and when she saw the purity in her eyes, she asked, "I heard your husband said on the phone that someone tricked you two in a contract, do you mind letting me see it?"
London was slightly confused as to why Mu Xi Xing wanted to look at the contract, but she still let Mu Xi Xing looked at it as she thought that Mu Xi Xing probably just wanted to look at it. Mu Xi Xing knew that London didn't know that she wanted to help them, but she didn't bother explaining it first.
She looked at the contract and realized that although there is a trap in the agreement, it works both ways. Worse of all, if the person succeeded in their plan, London and her husband would lose all their assets. Hence, if the other party was so confident that they would fail, it means that they probably tampered with the experiment. To solve this, the only thing they need to do is make the research work, and then the person who tricked them could be thrown into jail.
"Do you have the report for the experiments you all conducted with you?" Mu Xi Xing asked London again.
London was confused again, but she still showed the report to Mu Xi Xing. London did not know why, but she trusts that Mu Xi Xing means no harm. London had an instinct to listen to her, although London is old enough to be Mu Xi Xing's mother.
Mu Xi Xing looked at the report and found several errors in their methods of experiment. Although their ways were slightly wrong, the results of the research did not match the steps they took. Just as she guessed, someone tampered the test.
"For these steps..." Mu Xi Xing started to explain to her what was wrong with the experiment and told her what they should do, "...The person that tricked you all had also probably done something to the experiment because the results do not match the experiment you all conducted."
Mu Xi Xing then added on to talk about the contract and advised them on what they could do.
After listening to Mu Xi Xing, London was even more shocked because everything made sense.
"Sorry... how old are you? Where are you studying now?" London asked with a mixture of excitement and shock.
"Eleven. I am turning twelve soon. I have never attended school." Mu Xi Xing replied with a small smile.
