I smiled wryly. âItâs fine.â
âWhat do you mean by that? The capillaries here have already formed a scar.â Lin Ran said angrily.
I closed my eyes as cold needles flashed through my mind. Ma Ji had never treated me like an actual human before!
âIs it... that bad, Doctor Lin? Can it be treated?â Daisy asked carefully with tears in her eyes.
Daisy really cared about me. Then again, Ma Ji also used the same care and concern as she drew vials of my blood. Who could I really trust?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Ran said coldly, âShe wonât die, but it wonât be so easy to recover!â
Daisyâs tears fell. âMy poor miss.â
I smiled. âItâs fine. At least I wonât die.â
Daisy cried even harder.
Lin Ran took my venous blood. His movements were very gentle. I didnât feel any pain at all. I didnât expect him to be so calm after what he had seen.
âIâll take it back for testing. Iâll give you the results as soon as possible. Your body is very weak right now. Iâll send a Chinese medicine doctor over as soon as possible. You need to take good care of your body. If this continues, even though you wonât die, living will be a form of torture.â He looked very angry.
I didnât understand why he was angry. Shouldnât I be the one who was angry?
Daisy was already in a daze. âDoctor Lin, please, help us find a good Chinese medicine practitioner. As long as Miss can recover, it doesnât matter how much money we spend.â
I smiled. The problems that money could solve werenât problems. But could my problems be solved with money?
Sure enough, Lin Ran sighed. âThis isnât an issue of money. But donât worry, weâll do our best to nurse her body.â
I raised my eyes to look at Lin Ran. âThatâs what those people said when they drew my blood. It was to nurse me back to health.â
Lin Ran stopped what he was doing. He understood what I meant. His expression was a little hurt.
He lowered his voice. âNanxing, it doesnât matter if you remember us or not. The most important thing now is to nurse your body back to health. The poison in your body is very strange. We need to identify it before we can detoxify it.â
He bent down, his gaze level with mine. âBut Nanxing, even if Jing Tian traded his life for it, he wouldnât let anything happen to you! You donât know what kind of life heâs been living these past few years ââ He paused and sighed. âGod is fucked up! Why canât he just leave the good people alone?!â
He packed up his medicine box. He turned around and said to Daisy, âYour Missâ body is very weak. She needs to rest. Donât let her work too hard. Iâll send a set of equipment to monitor her body. If thereâs anything strange, you have to inform me immediately.â
Daisy asked hesitantly, âWhat, what do you mean by strange?â
Lin Ran explained patiently, âFor example, dizziness, headaches, nosebleeds, coughs, and so on. Even when she loses her temper, you have to tell me. Weâre not sure what kind of poison weâre dealing with.â
Daisy nodded hurriedly. She worshipped Lin Ran like a god.
I glanced at him. This was equivalent to giving Lin Ran a pass to enter and leave this place anytime and anywhere. I knew Lin Ran was doing this for Jing Tian. He didnât really care about me.
Lin Ran didnât mind my wariness around him. Before he left, he said lightly, âYes, Iâm doing this for him. Because if you donât survive, heâs not going to last for long either. You two will have a better chance of reuniting in the afterworld.â He shook his head. âWhy are you two always giving me so much trouble?â
After he left, I examined my heart. I didnât dislike Lin Ran.
Instead, I felt a warm feeling of being cared for and loved.. This was something that I had never felt before.
