However, it was gratifying to see that all her experience points were increasing. It seemed that she had improved her Charm Point by having built up good relations with the people around her recently.

Taeyeon stood up, walked to the window to gaze at the faraway lake and frowned.

Just as she was in a daze, the door of her ward was pushed open.

Lin Ru came in and said coldly,

"I've handled the discharge procedures for you. Now go back with me!" She scowled at the sight of the clothes Taeyeon was wearing.

"You did it on purpose! You have clothes! You just want to embarrass me, right?"

Taeyeon took a look at her clothes and shrugged, saying, "I just forgot that I still had a set of clothes under my pillow."

"Erika, I tell you, you'd better behave yourself after you go back home. If you dare say anything improper in front of your grandfather, I won't let you get away with it!" Facing Taeyeon's indifferent attitude, she was angry and resentful.

"Okay," Taeyeon said with a nonchalant nod, adding, "I'm going to say goodbye to my friends. Wait for me at the gate of the hospital."

"Erika, don't you know how busy I am?!" Hearing that Taeyeon wanted to say goodbye to the other patients, Lin Ru lost her temper.

"Just because of you, I was absent from a movie investment conference this morning, and now you still have time to say goodbye to those patients? And do you know how much Jun-ah earns from a job? She turned down a job and came to pick you up with me. Are you trying to torture us?"

Taeyeon paused, turned to look into Lin Ru's eyes and said word by word, "Or you can go first."

"Erika!"

Pretending not hearing her roar, Taeyeon trotted down the stairs and greeted the doctors, nurses and patients she passed by along the way.

When she reached the lake of the hospital, she slowed down her steps. Looking at Aunt Hwang and her son by the lake, she grew slightly nervous.

Taeyeon, who had lived two lifetimes, was feeling nervous for the first time.

When she had died, it was so sudden that she didn't even have a chance to get nervous. Now she finally experienced how it felt.

Spotting a girl walking towards them, Stephanie recognized her as the girl who had been accompanying his mother just a while ago.

He looked down at his mother and said softly, "Continue with your chat; I'll make a phone call over there."

Seeing Stephanie turn to leave, Taeyeon loosened her clenched fists. She smiled at Aunt Hwang, who was looking at her, and walked up to squat before her. She said,

"Auntie, I came to say goodbye. My family has come to take me home."

A touch of sadness flickered across Hwang Yuxin's eyes as she nodded and said, "Okay. You can still come to the hospital to chat with me when you're free."

Taeyeon nodded and replied, "Alright, Aunt Hwang. We'll meet again." She then stood up and turned away

Stephanie, who had been making a phone call, came over at this time. Looking at Taeyeon's receding figure, he frowned and asked, "What did you talk about?"

Still staring at Taeyeon's receding figure, Hwang Yuxin smiled at his question.

"You mean Erika? She came to say goodbye to me. Her family came to take her out of the hospital."
