When Xu Tingzhi woke up, it was still daylight. The warm sunlight shone obliquely through the glass and onto the curtains. After a moment, it slowly flowed into Xu Tingzhi's pupils like water, making his eyes as golden as amber.

  I don't know what medicine I applied to my body, but it didn't hurt so much at this time. Xu Tingzhi groaned, supported himself on the bed with both hands, and tried to get up.

  Soon, someone noticed his intention and came in holding something, making light footsteps.

  After a while, someone pried open Xu Tingzhi's half-open eyelids, tried to shine something into his eyes, said a few words, and left.

  The ward soon returned to silence. After a while, a nurse came in and seemed to be changing Xu Tingzhi's dressing.

  The nurse's movements were not heavy, but Xu Tingzhi still frowned. He gathered strength for a long time and opened his eyes. His Adam's apple moved, and he tore open his dry and sticky lips, and slowly uttered a sentence:

  "Who are you?"

  "Ah, you're awake!" The nurse seemed to have not expected that Xu Tingzhi would take so long to regain consciousness this time. She was stunned for a moment, and seeing Xu Tingzhi staring at her with vigilant eyes, she quickly explained:

  "I'm a nurse at the Capital First Hospital. Do you remember me? I often helped you when you were injured before."

  Xu Tingzhi didn't respond, but looked at her expressionlessly, with three big words written all over his face -

  "I don't know him."

  "......"

  Seeing this, the nurse laughed dryly, hiding her disappointment, and said to Xu Tingzhi:

  "Do you need some water?"

  "No need." Now that he knew he was in the Capital First Hospital, Xu Tingzhi knew he had escaped and was not in danger for the time being.

  But...what about Qi Zhexue?

  When he was unconscious, he seemed to hear Qi Zhexue calling him, but how come she was gone when he opened his eyes?

  Thinking of this, Xu Tingzhi frowned, and tried to stand up. When the nurse reached out her hand to help him, she dodged it calmly, and instead put on a polite and cold attitude that kept people at a distance:

  "Excuse me, did you see a guide coming when I was unconscious?"

  "Ah, guide?" The nurse was about to reach out her hand to help him, but her movement froze in mid-air. She took it back after a long while. After hearing what he said, she thought for a moment and said,

  "Are you talking about Mr. Qi Zhexue?"

  "Yes, it's him." Xu Tingzhi's eyes lit up instantly, and she looked at the nurse with eager anticipation:

  "How is he, is he injured?"

  "Mr. Qi only suffered minor injuries and was discharged from the hospital soon."

  The nurse said, "He stayed by your bedside while you were unconscious, and only left after you were transferred from the intensive care unit to the general ward."

  Xu Tingzhi immediately said impatiently:

  "So when will he come next time?"

  "......I don't know." The nurse saw that there was no chance of hooking up with the handsome guy, so she stopped talking, packed up her things, and left:
