“How is she doing now?” Luo Ying quietly walked into Jin Ning’s ward.
Although Lu Zhao drove Luo Ying to the hospital, he waited for her in the parking lot rather than going upstairs with her because Jin Ning was only permitted two visitors.
“Now that the situation has stabilized, the doctor said that there’s no need for surgery. “Jin Shi tapped his nose bridge in exhaustion. The Jin family’s elderly parents were of little use. Over the past few days, he had been Jin Ning’s primary caregiver.
Luo Ying was saddened to see Jin Ning, who had once been so vivacious and full of life, now lying quietly in a hospital bed. Jin Ning was a bubbly and adorable little girl, despite the fact that she was constantly babbling due to her attention disorder.
“She began packing and left the house early that morning to play with her pals. She skipped both her morning and midday meals. She stuffed herself at the amusement park late at night because she was very hungry. The overeating led to acute cholecystectomy.” Jin Shi sighed.
That night, he received a call from the hospital saying that Jin Ning had been admitted to the ICU. Understandably, it came as a major shock.
“Brother…” The voices must have startled Jin Ning, because she opened her eyes blankly.
“I’m here.” Both Jin Shi and Luo Ying walked over to her hospital bed.
“Sister Luo Ying?” Jin Ning noticed the presence of the other person.
“Yes, I heard you were sick, so I came to see you.” Luo Ying chuckled and took Jin Ning’s hand.
“Thank you for coming to see me. You… I…” Jin Ning was not fully awake yet, and she still looked sleepy. Her eyes were about to close, and she was about to fall asleep. However, something seemed to jolt her awake.
“Good, good, good,” Luo Ying did not want her to force herself. She reached out to cover her eyes. “Rest for a while more. Your brother and I are here. We’ll talk to you when you’re better, okay?”
“Yes.” Jin Ning managed a mumble and she was soon fast asleep.
Luo Ying and Jin Shi quietly left the ward.
Down the hall, Jin Shi leaned against a window, tapping his fingers silently on the sill.
“What’s on your mind?” It was a habit from their old lives whenever Third Brother was worried. Luo Ying recognized it at a glance.
“If an opportunity came when you could leave, would you take it?” Jin Shi asked vaguely.
In fact, he was not just asking Luo Ying this question; he was also asking himself.
This world was so terrifyingly real. Luo Ying had grown attached to the people here. Jin Shi was facing the same struggles.
The more Jin Shi interacted with the Jin family while Jin Ning was sick, the more he thought about this question.
Luo Ying cast a complicated look at Jin Shi. “I can’t answer that.”
What would she do if she had the ability to return to her original world one day? Luo Ying really did not know.
Jin Shi lowered his eyes. He silently stared at the moving lights on the street.
He had once been adamant that this was all a fiction book. No matter what, he had to return.
But as his ties to this world grew stronger and he developed more personal relationships with its inhabitants, he began to worry that his resolve would eventually weaken.
“Let the forces of nature take their course, Third Brother. In any case, now is not the time to decide. We do not even know if we would ever be allowed to make such a choice. Overthinking would only ruin your nights.” Luo Ying patted his shoulder.
“Let the forces of nature take their course…” Jin Shi chewed on these words carefully and nodded.
Luo Ying left Jin Shi after visiting Jin Ning.
Despite what she told Jin Shi, she did not immediately head home after getting on the elevator. Instead, she pressed the button for the second floor.
Luo Ying stepped off the elevator on the hospital’s second floor. She rounded the corner and arrived at an office’s entrance.
Knock, knock. Luo Ying knocked on the office door.
“Please come in.” A cold voice came from the door.
“Good afternoon, Dr. Jiang.” Luo Ying entered the room, greeting the man at the desk with a pleasant expression..
