Chapter 2: Lu Ruxin Awakens

Lu Ruxin abruptly opened her eyes, sitting up in bed. Was it just a nightmare? The agonizing pain felt so real, and the lingering emotions didn't seem like a dream.

Dazed, she realized she was in a hospital room, surrounded by tubes. Trying to make sense of it, she recalled a mountain trip with her brother that turned into an avalanche. But the details were fuzzy; how did she end up in the hospital?

Outside, her uncle's voice disrupted the quiet, arguing about money with someone named Lin Qiuping. Lu Ruxin, irritated, removed the tubes and confronted them about the commotion.

To her shock, her mother was selling their house and borrowing money. Lu Ruxin, now awake after being presumed dead, felt a mix of guilt and grief, learning her brother didn't survive.

In a heartfelt conversation with her mother, Lu Ruxin expressed regret for causing worry. Her mother explained the desperate financial situation, selling the house to pay rescue fees and medical bills. Lu Ruxin, angered by her uncle's opportunism, vowed to face the challenges ahead.
