When Xia Lin woke up, he found himself lying in a ward with an infusion tube on the back of his hand. 

The environment of the ward looks familiar. It seems to be the hospital he was sent to in his previous life.

The gears of destiny overlapped unexpectedly and even such details are the same. 

No. 

Xia Lin sat up abruptly. Unlike his previous life, there is also Song Yan!

He was about to lift the quilt and jump out of the bed when he heard a familiar voice from his side: "Hey, do you want to scare me to death by sitting up abruptly like this?" 

He turned his head and looked, only to see Ke Mei leaning on the back of his chair, as if he had just taken a nap and was a little tired.

"Ke Mei," Xia Lin seemed to have seen a savior. 

He grabbed Ke Mei's hand and said: "Where is Song Yan? Has he been rescued?" 

"He's rescued," Ke Mei soothed, "He is not dead yet. Don't be so nervous."

"How is he?" 

"His condition is not very good," Ke Mei said, "This small hospital cannot perform complicated operations so he was transferred to a hospital in the province." 

Xia Lin's heart sank: "How bad is his situation?"

Ke Mei hesitated for a moment then said, "He had a comminuted fracture in his left leg. When we found him, he was in shock. If we arrived a little later, I am afraid it'll be too late." 

Xia Lin's heart jumped. He understood what a comminuted fracture meant. 

After a moment of silence, he asked in a dumb voice, "What is the worst possible result?"

"Theoretically, the worst result is amputation." Ke Mei said, "But you are also a medical student. You should know that there are many kinds of clinical conditions. It is not clear how the operation is now. Don't think about the results so badly. Maybe the situation is more optimistic and it will be cured later."

Ke Mei intended to comfort Xia Lin but it was obvious that Xia Lin was not comforted at all. Xia Lin could not imagine how Song Yan would be if he lost a leg.

Ke Mei sighed, patted his shoulder, and said: "Don't think about it too much. You have been trapped for so long and your own physical condition is not very good. You can lie down and take a good rest. After your body is well developed, you can do other things, okay?"

Xia Lin asked, "Which hospital was Song Yan sent to? Who should I contact?" 

"You lie down first," Ke Mei can only coax him with a childish tone, "otherwise I won't tell you." 

Xia Lin was helpless so he laid back and looked at Ke Mei, "Can you talk now?"

"Where Song Yan was sent is not something I care about," Ke Mei said seriously, "I can only tell you that his family has rushed over now. If you have the phone number of his family, you can call and ask. But—"Ke Mei looked at the time, "I guess he is still under operation now. It's useless for you to fight it now. It's better to be patient and wait."

Xia Lin fell silent. 

He seemed to think of something then asked: "How were we discovered?"

"Didn't you call me and told me that if you don't come back at one o'clock in the afternoon, I will call the city and ask for help?" Ke Mei said, "A mudslide occurred before the agreed hour. The village chief said that you had already started walking down before he came back so we narrowed the search area by half and finally found you in the cave."

Xia Lin thought to himself, it's no wonder they were found after only two or three hours in this life.

"That kid—"

"The child's fine and was found later." Ke Mei said vaguely. "But the mudslide happened suddenly and the village head was frightened. The man in his fifties was sitting in the heavy rain. He cried with tears, saying that he shouldn't have left you two on the mountain back then and should've brought you back together."

Xia Lin said: "The village chief doesn't need to blame himself like this..."

"I also told him that. Later, he heard that your condition was okay but Song Yan's condition was not good so he volunteered to escort Song Yan to the Provincial Hospital."

Speaking of Song Yan, Xia Lin was silent again. 

Song Yan went to the mountain to accompany him. To protect him, he almost died. Now, it's still unknown whether he can keep his leg.

Ke Mei came out of the ward and then glanced at the end of the corridor vigilantly. 

Song Huaixin, wearing a plain white shirt, stood there quietly, watching him calmly.

Ke Mei took a deep breath, walked to him, and said in a low voice: "Are you planning to do it again?" 

There was anger in his voice.

Song Huaixin didn't look angry. He just looked at Ke Mei lightly: "You took the search and rescue team directly to the cave and let them be rescued ten hours in advance. Isn't it too obvious?"

"It was originally agreed that it's fine for them to fend for themselves," Ke Mei retorted, "but you set up a formation at a critical moment to kill them. Isn't it a bit ugly? Since you didn't abide by the agreement first, then there is no need for me to comply."

"In actuality, you don't want them to die."

Song Huaixin didn't get angry. He still looked calm.

"You can't do it so I have no choice but to act on it." "

Ke Mei was suddenly speechless. He carefully calculated various factors. 

Xia Lin was able to survive the incident in his last life. Even if Song Yan is added to him in this life, his chances of survival should be very high.

He told Song Huaixin that the two should fend for themselves. It was just to slow down the plan and he would think of other ways to delay it in the future but Song Huaixin saw through him. 

Seeing that he didn't speak, Song Huaixin showed a trace of pity in his eyes: "Ke Mei, have you already developed feelings for them?"

Ke Mei was startled.

"You do not belong on this plane. When you said you wanted to integrate into the society here and experience the feeling of being an ordinary person, I didn't approve of it. The more you integrate, the less you can get away. Now, you have gotten strong feelings when you perform tasks. The tone you used in questioning me just now has clearly shown that you have drawn yourself to their side and drawn me to the opposite of yours, right?"
