"Money, I will not give it to you. Whoever ate it, let them pay the bill!" Shen Qingyou resolutely hung up the phone. A chill rising from the very depths of her heart made her legs unable to stand. Leaning against the wall of the corridor, she barely managed to sit down on a stool, gasping for breath. Her face suddenly turned an unusual shade of crimson, and then she lost consciousness... "Serene, Serene..."
In the midst of a white mist, who was gently calling her name? Whose hand was so warm, warming her coldness? Was she alive or dead?
Shen Qingyou had a long dream. Yuan Mufang's ruthlessness, her own fragility, Yuan Mufang's cruelty, her tears—time seemed to flow backward, and past scenes replayed like a movie. But in that vast space, she only saw time as longitude and space as latitude, secrets intertwining in scenes of joy and sorrow.
In the past, she always thought that being alive was such a happy thing, enjoying every bit of love that Yuan Mufang brought her. She used to think that life was too generous to her, filled with happiness and joy. But now, in just one night, how could her life be completely overturned? Was heaven and hell really just a thin line apart?
If she died, would this endless pain stop? Living was so difficult and exhausting; if she died, would everything come to an end?
The person closest to her had cancer, the one she loved betrayed her. Suddenly falling from the clouds of happiness to the depths of hell—was it because she had been too happy in the past that even old age envied her?
"Serene, Serene, wake up, wake up..."
Don't call her; she was so tired. She just wanted to sleep well; she was so exhausted... Li Haoran looked at Shen Qingyou's tightly furrowed brows and held her frail hand. He knew his actions had already crossed the line of what a doctor should do for a patient. Yet instinctively, he longed to protect this seemingly fragile woman at this moment. What had happened to make her strong heart so weak?
And why was the man who had sworn absolute sovereignty over her not by her side at this moment? He was filled with countless doubts and confusion, along with the tear stains left at the corners of her eyes that seemed like needles piercing his heart.
"Doctor Li, it's time for your surgery..."
The young nurse looked at Li Haoran with confusion. What was wrong with Doctor Li today? "Yue, please take good care of her for me!"
"Got it!"
The nurse known as Moon glanced at the woman lying on the hospital bed. She was quite beautiful, but not in an extraordinary way. Why was Doctor Li suddenly so attentive to her? Among the young nurses, many were admirers of his, and in terms of looks, they were not much inferior to this woman. Yet none could open his heart. The nurse thought about this and felt a pang of envy towards Shen Qingyou on the bed. If she knew everything that had happened to Shen Qingyou, perhaps she would not feel so envious!
"Qing Shao, we could have just sent the medical report to you. Why bother coming in person?" Director Zhang seemed caught off guard by Qing Cang's sudden arrival, rubbing his hands together nervously as he followed behind him. Since he was here to pick up the surgery, why was he heading towards the gastrointestinal surgery?
"I need to find Li Haoran..."
It was brief and straightforward, yet carried an undeniable authority. His sharp brows were raised high; today he wasn't in uniform but wore simple white casual clothes that did nothing to diminish his unique kingly aura. Wherever he went, he shone like the sun, making it impossible for anyone to ignore him.
"Director, I'm sorry, Doctor Li is currently in the operating room..." The nurse looked down at the marble floor, her cheeks flushed. This man was so handsome yet intimidating, especially those dark eyes that seemed ready to swallow her whole.
"Qing Shao?" Director Zhang glanced awkwardly at Qing Cang's tightly closed lips. His gaze darted between each hospital room as if searching for something.
"Then forget it!" With a wave of his long arm, not seeing her figure, could it be that she wasn't here? Just as Qing Cang turned to leave, his eyes inadvertently caught sight of a familiar figure resting on a chair in the nurse's office. A brilliant smile spread across his face; she was indeed here!
Without a second thought, he strode in confidently, his gaze landing on Shen Qingyou's pale face. "What happened to her?"
"Anemia... fainted..." The nurse stammered, becoming even more curious about the woman lying there. Who was she that even this extraordinary man showed such concern?
"Fainted?"
Given how fast she had run yesterday and the force with which she had fallen, he had thought she was as tough as iron. He never expected her to be anemic...
"Qing Shao, what are you...?"
Director Zhang looked at Qing Cang in confusion as he picked up the unconscious Shen Qingyou. "Qing Shao, what happened?"
"Go to my room..."
With that command, Qing Cang no longer paid attention to the puzzled gazes of the crowd and carried Shen Qingyou toward his VIP Room.
