Chapter 816: Chapter 779: Doing a Good Deed Early in the Morning

Early the next morning, the sky was barely bright, and Lin Wanwan was still in a sleepy daze when Lu Shouyue rose.

After he freshened up and finished the breakfast sent by the bodyguard, Lin Wanwan was still asleep.

However, Lu Shouyue wasn’t surprised at all; it was just past six in the morning, and according to Lin Wanwan’s biological clock, it wasn’t time for her to wake up yet.

After Lin Wanwan’s house was renovated, despite its small size, it was fully equipped with the necessary conveniences, such as a dishwasher.

Lu Shouyue placed the dishes into the dishwasher, then put the breakfast in the refrigerator, which had just been activated the night before, and left a dining note on the fridge door for Lin Wanwan.

Then he turned and walked into the master bedroom, half-kneeling on the bed, looking down at Lin Wanwan, and said softly, "Wanwan, Wanwan, I’m leaving."

Lin Wanwan responded with a sleepy "hmm," a subconscious reply she wouldn’t remember upon waking.

Seeing her sleep so soundly, Lu Shouyue leaned in gently, "Little lazy pig, give hubby a kiss goodbye; we won’t see each other for two weeks."

Without waiting for Lin Wanwan’s response, he lowered his head for a farewell kiss.

When Lin Wanwan naturally woke up at seven-thirty, Lu Shouyue’s figure was long gone, but his messages were all over WeChat and the fridge.

Lu Shouyue knew her tastes well, having left crystal shrimp dumplings, fruit boxes, and grain yogurt—all things she wanted to eat and easy to prepare without much fuss.

While eating breakfast, a loud commotion suddenly erupted outside the window.

Curiosity prompted Lin Wanwan to walk to the balcony with her fruit box to investigate, discovering a crowd looking upward downstairs.

This quickly made Lin Wanwan realize that there was an incident upstairs.

She opened the window and peeked upward, gasping instantly.

On the security window of the floor above, there was a child with only a shirt and pants on, whose head was stuck over the edge while their body dangled dangerously.

She immediately put down the fruit tray, went to the study, opened her mountaineering backpack, and swiftly donned a full-body harness, took out a 9.8mm dynamic rope, tying one end to the hook of the bamboo chair’s swing on her balcony, and the other to her harness.

Completing it all in less than a minute, Lin Wanwan kicked off her slippers, opened the window, found a foothold, and began to climb.

Her emergence triggered screams from spectators filming across the street and below.

Lin Wanwan ignored all disturbances, stepping on the air conditioner bracket to approach the child suspended in mid-air.

The child, at most three years old, stirred such commotion; the adults at home likely were unaware, having left her alone while still asleep.

Clearly, the child woke early, searching for people, and moving around recklessly, almost leading to disaster.

Lin Wanwan’s swordsmanship and skills trained in Great Tang weren’t in vain; coupled with her strength, she was more than capable of rescuing a child through climbing.

Presented was two choices: push the child upward back into the security window, or bend the bars enough to take the child back to her floor.

Without hesitation, she made her choice—to push the child back inside.

Holding the child downward posed risks; failing to hold securely or if something like the air conditioner bracket loosened, pushing inside surely would encounter rescuers trying to open the door.

The child was pushed back inside, the danger averted, and cheers erupted around.

Lin Wanwan agilely returned via the same route in swift motions.

Then she removed her full-body harness and dynamic rope, put on her shoes, returned to the bedroom, changed out of cartoon-style plush pajamas into a short white down jacket. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Quickly she moved to the entryway shoe cabinet, changed shoes, and headed upstairs.

She wanted to confirm the child was entirely safe.

The hallway was already crowded, with everyone door-open, discussing the incident.

The fifth-floor child’s door had indeed been pried open, crowded inside were people and two police officers weaving through.

Seeing this scene, Lin Wanwan didn’t squeeze in; with police present, the child’s safety was naturally ensured.

She turned and went downstairs, meeting excited gossiping neighbors who wanted to share, "Hey, do you know? It was so dangerous just now; A-Si’s kid almost fell, rescued by a girl in pajamas."

Lin Wanwan smiled slightly at them without responding, continuing down.

Seeing Lin Wanwan unresponsive, the person switched targets to share with others as the hallway was full of people, bustling with chat.

Lin Wanwan moved against the current, returned to her home, tidied the dishes, closed windows, electricity, and water valves, and took her bag and car keys upstairs.

Her parents left her this small apartment, ideally positioned near the city center, mentioned in demolition talks for years, while nearby neighborhoods were almost entirely torn down, yet their place remained untouched, though demolition felt inevitable.

Previously, Lin Wanwan was pulled into the neighborhood group by enthusiastic neighbors, frequently witnessing elder residents sharing demolition news.

For Lin Wanwan, it was preferable not to demolish, for sentimental reasons; once demolished, her parents’ traces would vanish altogether.

She wasn’t lacking money, not needing demolition for wealth.

Moreover, urban demolitions weren’t like rural ones, where houses were larger with more compensation; urban ones aimed to exchange old for new, earning a small gain, but rarely resulting in wealth.

Today, being Sunday, with Lin Wanwan in Hai City, she decided to visit the senior apprentice there.

Seeing the Master weekly was enough; weekends were moments not to disturb his sweet life with his girlfriend.

Lin Wanwan had contacted the descendant of Master Liang yesterday, planning to visit him today.

Being a doctor meant being busy with alternating shifts, irrespective of weekends.

Fortunate timing arranged for the doctor to rest that weekend, allowing time for a gathering with Lin Wanwan.

During lunch with her senior apprentice’s family, the morning video of her heroic air conditioner rescue was already trending on the local network, likely soon spreading nationwide.

Lin Wanwan originally gained online fame for bravery, assisting Chen Jinyu against villains.

This stirring rise back to trending was due again to courage, captured in plush pajamas from afar, extremely down-to-earth; yet no one had uncovered her identity.
