The insomniac had finally found peaceful sleep.
The sleep-deprived one, however, found his mind wakeful due to her last sentence.
Sheng Shi lay awake, feeling every cell in his body actively pulsing, bringing waves of tingling sensations.

At nine o'clock the next morning, Sun Qingyang made his routine rounds in the hospital, this time bringing along an acquaintance of Gu Lanshan, Chu Peng.
"Uncle Chu, what brings you here?" Gu Lanshan excitedly sat up from her hospital bed.
