“Really? If we find her, can she really save Shi Xuan?” Yan Yin could hardly believe that when top doctors were helpless, someone could bring someone back from the brink of death. This seemed too incredible.
He had no doubts about this. “What I’m worried about is not her medical skills, but whether An Zhang can find her so hastily.”
“As long as An Zhang wants to find someone, he will definitely find a way.” Yan Yin had no doubts about his friend’s abilities, fearing only that after finding her, she would make the same declaration as those doctors.
Shi Xuan? Were they talking about her? What happened to her? She suddenly discovered her light body could float freely. Startled, she tried to grab Jin Yuanhao, but her hand passed through his body, and she floated up to the ceiling.
What was happening?! She was shocked, holding her hand in front of her face and seeing it was transparent!
“I hope he really can find her,” Jin Yuanhao said wearily, sitting down on a nearby chair.
Looking again at the person on the bed, Yan Yin’s thick eyebrows furrowed. “I just hope she really has such miraculous medical skills, otherwise I’m afraid An Zhang won’t be able to bear the blow.”
“Does An Zhang really love Shi Xuan that much?” Though phrased as a question, thinking of the doctor’s recent declaration that Shi Xuan could only survive another 48 hours, and An Zhang’s near-breakdown, Jin Yuanhao understood this man’s feelings for Shi Xuan ran deeper than his own.
Yan Yin also found a chair to sit, hands behind his head, staring at the ceiling. “To track Shi Xuan’s whereabouts, he’s invested most of his energy in running the detective agency. When missing her, he looks at the images and information collected by his dispatched agents. To help her realize her dreams, he’s been silently watching over her all these years. You should know that for any task she handles, someone always provides useful leads – and that behind-the-scenes person is An Zhang.”
His tone changing, he spoke forcefully, “Tell me, how deeply does he love Shi Xuan? You blamed the car accident on him. If they truly can’t save Shi Xuan, he will never forgive himself.”
Jin Yuanhao closed his eyes, silently staring at the ground, his expression unreadable.
Calming down, he admitted that blaming An Zhang at the time was wrong. He had received strict training and should not have been so careless. He swore he would not let off the person who tampered with his car! His clenched fist struck the wall decisively.
Seeing this, Yan Yin stopped speaking.
However, the transparent shadow was stunned, floating to the bedside, horrifyingly looking down at the person on the bed.
This person was Shi Xuan, so who was she?
Could it be… she was already dead!?
And An Zhang? With Yan Yin already here, why wasn’t he by her side? Oh right, Yan Yin had said An Zhang was looking for someone to save her?
Could it be she wasn’t dead yet? But what about these two versions of herself?!
Could it be, as people say, her soul had left her body?
Realizing this, she anxiously tried to return to her body. Lying on the bed, attempting to reunite body and soul, she discovered no matter how hard she tried, she simply could not enter.
How could this be?
Suddenly, she saw a light, and at the end of the light, there seemed to be a passage that was emitting a powerful force calling her, drawing her in a few steps.
She was panic-stricken, vaguely aware that once she entered that path, she would never be able to return.
She desperately resisted, refusing to go in.
She wouldn’t go, she couldn’t go, she wanted to stay, she didn’t want to leave An Zhang again. If she left like this, what would An Zhang do? He had waited for her for so long; how could she make him sad again!
A tearing, excruciating pain spread throughout her body. She felt as if her soul was being torn apart, so painful, so painful that she could no longer think about anything, using all her strength to fight against the heartbreaking agony.
Please, if there are truly gods or a God, let me stay.
I don’t want to go. I want to stay by the side of the one I love, loving him just as he loves me.
Please…
After an indeterminate amount of time, people in the room seemed to say something more, but she could no longer listen.
Her consciousness gradually collapsed and scattered, with the only remaining thought being—to stay.
After an unknown period of time, when Shi Xuan regained consciousness, she felt an almost unbearable pain as if her limbs were being dismembered.
So painful, so painful!
Stop, stop! She desperately tried to struggle, but it was useless. She couldn’t move; her body was as heavy as a thousand pounds. She couldn’t even open her eyes, let alone do anything else.
She couldn’t bear it anymore; she really couldn’t bear it.
“Your will to survive is so strong that it impresses me. I am now using spiritual energy to heal your ruptured internal organs, which will be very painful. But you must endure and not give up. Whatever you do, don’t have thoughts of escaping, or else all previous efforts will be in vain. The key to the success of my treatment lies in your willpower.”
That voice, light as a gentle breeze, was like a melodious wind chime brushing against her ear, miraculously slightly alleviating the enormous pain.
“You will definitely make it through. Think about your beloved. Do you want to see him again? As long as you survive, you can see him. While you are suffering such great pain, he is not having it any easier. He is suffering with you. You are enduring physical pain, while he is experiencing mental torment and anguish.” The soft voice comforted her again.
An Zhang! An Zhang is suffering with her!
She wanted to see him. She wanted to live, to spend the rest of their days together. She would never leave him again.
So she couldn’t die. She must survive.
“Very good, keep this up. You will get through this life-and-death crisis.”
Yes, she would definitely not die. She would be with An Zhang… As she lost consciousness again, she was thinking of one name—An Zhang.
“Phew, finally accomplished.” After the treatment, the woman exhaled softly, her warm hand covering the forehead of the person sleeping. “Congratulations. Your firm will to survive has helped you escape the King of Hell’s summons. Make sure to cherish this hard-won second chance at life.” After speaking softly, she pressed the emergency call button by the bed and walked silently towards the window.
Her light body disappeared outside the window like the wind.
No reward was needed, nor any unnecessary gratitude. She would only help those who were destined.
The hospital room became busy, with medical staff rushing in and out.
The patient who was originally on the brink of death now had a rosy complexion. Her ruptured internal organs had miraculously fully recovered, and her blood pressure and pulse had returned to normal. The doctors were amazed, eager to know which mysterious doctor had performed such a miraculous treatment.
Unfortunately, no one would see her again. After saving Shi Xuan, she vanished like the wind.
“I now truly believe in miracles.” Yan Yi yawned, having stayed in the hospital for over thirty hours without closing his eyes, his handsome face showing fatigue.
“Yan, thank you. Go and get some rest,” An Zhang offered a warm smile, gripping his friend’s hand.
“Okay, there shouldn’t be anything else happening now. I’m leaving.” He glanced at Jin Yuan Hao and raised his eyebrows. “Hey, want to come along?”
“I…”
Before he could answer, Yan Yi forcefully pulled him away. “Let’s go. Since Shi Xuan is fine, you don’t need to stay. Go back and get some sleep, catch up on rest.” He intentionally took the guy away to let An Zhang and Shi Xuan be alone.
“We’re going,” he waved, dragging Jin Yuan Hao away.
The hospital room fell silent again.
