Chapter 39 Hiding in the small dark room of the laboratory, aunt escapes danger
Juanzi stood alone under the dim light. The weak light seemed unable to fully illuminate her figure, but instead made her look more lonely and vulnerable.
In the night, her face looked pale and tired, and her eyes, which were once full of vitality, were now filled with confusion and surprise.
Suddenly, a familiar figure walked out of the darkness and stood in front of her.
That was Su Chenjin. Her eyes were firm and deep, like stars twinkling in the darkness.
Juanzi opened her eyes wide and her pupils contracted slightly. She couldn't believe her eyes.
"Aunt, it's me." Su Chenjin said softly. Although her voice was low, it revealed a firmness that could not be ignored.
Her appearance seemed to freeze the air around her, and only her voice echoed in the air.
Juanzi came back to her senses and nodded slightly, her brows slightly furrowed, as if she was thinking hard about something.
She looked Su Chenjin up and down, with deep doubt in her eyes: "Why are you here?"
Su Chenjin hesitated for a moment. She knew that coming to find Juanzi this time was not an easy thing, but she didn't want to lie to Juanzi.
She took a deep breath and looked into Juanzi's eyes honestly: "Aunt, I'm worried about you."
After hearing this, Juanzi sighed softly, and her eyes revealed a complex emotion.
She reached out her hand and gently patted Su Chenjin's shoulder, her voice soft but with a hint of helplessness: "I know what you mean, but this is not a place you can come to, don't run around anymore."
Juanzi sighed softly, without asking any more questions, and quietly left the school hospital with Su Chenjin.
The moonlight shone on her body, giving her gentle yet resolute figure a silver outline. Her tone revealed a hint of concern, fearing that Su Chenjin would get into unnecessary trouble in this unfamiliar campus.
"I've prepared dinner, let's go back and eat." Juanzi said softly, with a smile as warm as the spring breeze on her face.
She paused for a moment, then continued, "Today I want to introduce you to someone. He is a fellow villager from Sujiazhuang, named Zheng Zheng."
Su Chenjin's heart moved. He had indeed heard of this name.
He remembered that Zheng Zheng was the man who lived in the dark room next to the school hospital, a taciturn man who always gave people an unfathomable feeling.
At dinner time, the huge restaurant was brightly lit, but Zheng Zheng was missing.
Su Chenjin and Juanzi sat by the window, and the atmosphere between them was a little silent.
Juanzi occasionally broke the silence and brought up some irrelevant topics.
Just as the two were about to fall into deeper silence, there was a slight noise at the door.
Zheng Zheng appeared at the door. He was wearing a dark coat, which made him look even more mysterious.
As he swept across the restaurant, his eyes seemed to be evasive, unwilling to meet people's gaze.
He walked straight towards Su Chenjin and Juanzi, each step seemed steady and powerful. However, when he stopped not far from the two, his voice became low and vague. He said a few words, and there seemed to be some unspeakable secret hidden in his voice.
Su Chenjin and Juanzi looked at each other, unable to understand the deeper meaning of his words.
Zheng Zheng's appearance and departure were as brief and mysterious as a gust of wind. His every move and every look made Su Chenjin's heart surge with more doubts.
However, there is one thing he can be sure of, that is, Zheng Zheng has special feelings for Juanzi. This usually silent and unfathomable man actually showed up at their dinner time because of Juanzi's words. This is undoubtedly a huge mystery for Su Chenjin.
Juanzi left very few clues for Su Chenjin. He felt that Juanzi was protecting him and seemed to be deliberately keeping him away from a core conflict area.
However, for Su Chenjin, he would never stop until Juanzi's nightmare was resolved. He decided to investigate the relationship between Zheng Zheng and Juanzi in depth to uncover the truth behind this mystery.
The bell for evening self-study is solemn and melodious, echoing in every corner of the campus, like an ancient call, leading the students into the palace of knowledge.
Su Chenjin's figure appeared lightly in the corridor of the classroom, looking particularly bright against the night background.
The light was soft and warm, like a mother's embrace, gently falling on her. Her silhouetted figure swayed in the light and shadow, as if a fairy had quietly descended to the world.
Just as she was about to step into the classroom, an inexplicable gaze suddenly shot at her like a sharp arrow, locking onto her tightly, causing her heart to beat faster.
She subconsciously raised her head and saw Xu Tian standing quietly at the other end of the corridor. His eyes were as sharp as torches, as if he could see through her.
Xu Tian was wearing a dark blue coat, with a neat and straight bow tie folded at the collar. His eyes were deep and bright, as if they contained endless secrets and unspeakable emotions.
"Student Su Chenjin, do you also like to study here?" Xu Tian's voice broke the silence in the corridor. He walked towards Su Chenjin with a slight smile, with a bit of surprise and expectation in his tone.
Su Chenjin nodded and a faint smile appeared on her face in response to Xu Tian's greeting.
Then, she turned and walked into the classroom, and found a seat near the window. The night outside the window was getting darker, but the lights in the classroom created a quiet and warm study space for her.
She opened the book and soon immersed herself in the ocean of knowledge. Xu Tian stood in the back row of the classroom thoughtfully, looking at Su Chenjin from time to time. His eyes were full of complex emotions, as if he was thinking about something important.
Suddenly, a blush appeared on Xu Tian's face, as if something touched his heart.
He quickly turned his face away, not daring to look at Su Chenjin again, fearing that she would see through his thoughts. At this moment, the emotions in his heart surged like a tide, but he couldn't describe it.
The bell for the end of evening self-study echoed throughout the campus, and the night was like a huge black curtain, covering the entire campus.
Su Chenjin's footsteps echoed in the empty corridor. She hurriedly asked her tutor for instructions and then ran all the way to the laboratory.
She pushed open the heavy laboratory door, and a familiar and unique smell hit her in the face: the pungent smell of chemical reagents, the coldness of instruments, and some indescribable enthusiasm and exploration.
To Su Chenjin, this smell was like the scent of home, making her feel safe and at ease.
However, when her eyes fell on the small dark room in the corner of the laboratory, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated like thunder.
There, hiding was her familiar Dahuang, the stray dog that always lay lazily on the lawn of the school hospital.
Dahuang looks like a little lazy guy, with dull fur and a somewhat disheveled look.
However, those eyes sparkled like stars, full of vigilance and curiosity.
The lights in the lab cast mottled shadows on it, making its figure look even thinner.
Dahuang seemed to feel Su Chenjin's gaze. It slowly raised its head and looked into her eyes with its bright eyes.
The appearance of Dahuang broke the original sterile environment of the laboratory, which gave Su Chenjin a headache.
Su Chenjin tried his best to look friendly and called Dahuang's name softly.
Dahuang hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked out of the dark room.
Su Chenjin quickly checked the culture dishes in the laboratory and found that several experiments had failed.
Su Chenjin bent down slightly, wrapped his arms tightly around Dahuang's body, and prepared to carry it outside.
She whispered to Dahuang, "Ah Huang, you are not allowed to come in here! There are fun places waiting for you outside." Dahuang seemed to understand what Su Chenjin said. It called softly, and there was a bit of reluctance and helplessness in its voice.
However, at this moment, a soft sound of footsteps broke the silence of the laboratory.
Xu Tian happened to pass by here. He stopped and watched the scene between Su Chenjin and Da Huang.
He raised a hint of ambiguous smile at the corner of his mouth: "Hey little guy, why are you here?" He stretched out his hand to take Ah Huang, his movements were gentle and skillful. He looked down at Da Huang with his eyes full of love.
Then Xu Tian raised his head and looked at Su Chenjin with a serious look in his eyes: "Su Chenjin, come to the Student Union tomorrow! Tomorrow is the Student Union's election campaign, it will be more lively if you come!"
Su Chenjin nodded slightly, and when she turned around, her eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of the fresh scratches on Xu Tian's hand.
The scratches were long and dark red, like new rose thorns, stinging her eyes.
This scene made her involuntarily think of the blood mark left on Juanzi's fingernails.
Su Chenjin felt a little curious, so she decided to follow Xu Tian to see where he was going.
She followed behind Xu Tian carefully, keeping a certain distance to avoid being discovered. Before long, Xu Tian noticed her presence, and his pace suddenly became hasty, as if deliberately luring her to follow. Su Chenjin's heart moved and she quickened her pace to follow Xu Tian closely.
Xu Tian suddenly paused and stopped, waiting for Su Chenjin to come forward.
"Is there something wrong?" Xu Tian turned around and looked at Su Chenjin, his tone filled with confusion and vigilance.
Su Chenjin was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Xu Tian to ask her so directly. She was a little overwhelmed for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
Su Chenjin took a deep breath and decided to get straight to the point. She stared into Xu Tian's eyes and said firmly, "Xu Tian, I need to know which building the school hospital's dormitory is located in." Her eyes revealed her desire for an answer.
Xu Tian frowned slightly, as if trying to recall. His eyes flickered, revealing a little uncertainty, but then he regained his composure.
He turned his head and his eyes met Su Chenjin's. He said in a light tone: "The school doctor will be off work at 8 o'clock in the evening. It should be in time for you to go to the school hospital now. As for the location of the school doctor's dormitory, I can't tell you casually."
Su Chenjin was very insightful and she keenly caught the abnormality in Xu Tian's answer.
When Xu Tian mentioned the "school doctor's dormitory", she noticed a hint of subtle nervousness in his eyes.
This made her more certain of her guess—Xu Tian had some unknown connection with the school doctor's dormitory.
She was unwilling to give up just like that, so she bit her lip and decided to continue following Xu Tian and observe his every move.
However, Xu Tian did not seem to take Su Chenjin's intentions to heart, and he easily got rid of her.
However, fate always seems to like to play jokes. In the dim light of the carport, Xu Tian was looking down attentively on the ground and on the bicycle, searching for something.
Su Chenjin soon discovered him. She stood not far away and observed quietly, her eyes always fixed on Xu Tian.
Suddenly, Xu Tian stopped what he was doing, raised his head and looked around the carport.
At this moment, Su Chenjin seized the opportunity, walked quickly to Xu Tian, and raised the key chain in his hand.
"Xu Tian, is this yours?" Su Chenjin's voice was firm and clear, echoing in the carport.
Xu Tian's gaze fell on the key ring in Su Chenjin's hand, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
His eyes widened and he looked at the keychain carefully, trying to confirm its authenticity.
When he saw the familiar shape and color, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"So it's with you!" His voice was filled with relief and joy, and his brows relaxed. He stretched out his hand, ready to take the keychain from Su Chenjin.
However, the moment he touched Su Chenjin's fingers, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated and a blush appeared on his face.
Su Chenjin smiled and gently placed the key chain in Xu Tian's palm.
"Look, I just happened to see it on the bench in the library, and I knew it was yours at first glance. Classmate Xu Tian, this keychain is a rare item, and it looks like a limited edition, so you must keep it carefully!" Su Chenjin said gently, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
Xu Tian took the key chain, his gratitude overflowing with words.
He said softly, "I see, classmate Su Chenjin, you really helped me a lot. I waited in line for ten days and braved the scorching summer heat to get this keychain from that small shop. If I had really lost it, I would have been so worried! Thank you so much!"
As he spoke, he pulled his wallet out of his pocket, his fingers dancing inside the wallet, quickly pulling out a red bill.
His eyes sparkled with gratitude, like a bright star shining in the night sky.
"This is just a small gift, not a token of my respect! Classmate Su Chenjin, I am so grateful to you for finding this key chain!" Xu Tian handed the red envelope to Su Chenjin with a smile, his voice full of sincerity.
Just then, Director Gu Xinliang happened to pass by, and his footsteps echoed in the corridor, as rhythmic as drumbeats.
Su Chenjin's heart moved. She rejected Xu Tian's red envelope and deliberately raised her voice and said, "Xu Tian, I have something to ask you!"
Xu Tian was stunned and blurted out: "It's a small matter!" However, when he saw Su Chenjin's serious expression, his heart couldn't help but tighten.
Su Chenjin's voice was a little perverse, and he deliberately raised the tone so that every word could be clearly heard by Director Gu Xinliang: "But classmate Xu Tian, why did you run out of her dormitory in a panic on the day my aunt fell into a coma?"
Xu Tian's originally calm face instantly turned as pale as snow after hearing Su Chenjin's words.
There was a flash of panic and fear in his eyes, like a frightened bird with nowhere to escape.
He tried to hide his uneasiness with words, but his voice trembled like a leaf in the wind.
At this moment, Director Gu Xinliang had already walked up to Xu Tian with steady steps.
There was an unquestionable majesty in his eyes, like a sharp knife light, piercing straight into Xu Tian's heart.
Xu Tian felt a tremendous pressure, and his heartbeat was beating rapidly like a drum blown by a strong wind.
"I... I just... I just went to... to get something..." Xu Tian explained stutteringly, his eyes dodging, not daring to look directly into Director Gu Xinliang's eyes.
"Oh? That keychain belongs to Xu Tian?" After Director Gu Xinliang finished speaking, the entire space seemed to fall into a brief silence.
Every word he uttered was like an ice-cold hammer, striking hard at Xu Tian's heart.
Xu Tian's heartbeat was like an angry drum, beating wildly. He knew that he could no longer avoid this sharp question. Director Gu Xinliang's eyes wandered back and forth on Xu Tian's body, exploring the secrets in his heart.
Xu Tian felt that every cell in his body was trembling under such scrutiny. His skin seemed to be hit by an electric current, and a tingling sensation spread throughout his body.
He lowered his head and clasped his hands together tightly, trying to calm his inner panic in this way.
However, the pressure was as heavy as a boulder, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
He knew that he could no longer remain silent in the face of Director Gu Xinliang's majesty.
He took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions.
Finally, he raised his head and bravely met Director Gu Xinliang's gaze. His eyes were firm and resolute, as if he was ready to face everything. He looked at Director Gu Xinliang deeply, and then said, "Okay, Director, I'll tell you everything I know..."
Director Gu Xinliang's voice sounded again, this time more firmly and forcefully: "Okay, you two, come with me to the office." As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Tian's body shivered involuntarily.
The moment Xu Tian walked into the office, the entire space seemed to become solemn.
He lowered his head and walked with heavy steps, each step carrying a heavy psychological burden.
There was a hint of uneasiness in his eyes, as if he was looking for a way out.
After taking a deep breath, he finally spoke. His voice was a little trembling, but every word was clear and powerful.
"I did go to the school doctor that day. I had a severe stomachache that was almost unbearable." Xu Tian began to honestly explain what happened that day. "I originally wanted to get some relief from the school doctor, but she was taking a break. I was in a hurry and the pain was unbearable, so I had to go to Jishuitan Hospital."
As he spoke, Xu Tian took out a thick medical report from his schoolbag and handed it to Gu Xinliang carefully.
Gu Xinliang took the report and looked through it carefully. Every page revealed Xu Tian’s pain and struggle that night.
The report showed that he did seek medical treatment for acute gastroenteritis.
Although Su Chenjin's suspicion had some truth to it, the evidence based solely on a keychain was indeed a bit thin.
However, the matter was still somewhat strange. Why did they go to the school doctor's dormitory to see a doctor at school?
If the school doctor has already left work, you should call 120 directly.
Moreover, if Xu Tian was really seriously ill, how could he remain calm several days after discovering that the key chain was missing?
Although this loophole is subtle, it is enough to arouse suspicion.
Gu Xinliang cast his gaze at Xu Tian with a sharp look, his tone revealed an unquestionable seriousness: "Xu Tian, I need you to give me a clear answer. Did you have an argument with Juanzi in the hospital that day, and made her so angry that she fell ill in bed?"
Xu Tian's expression changed slightly, but then he regained his composure.
He pretended to be calm and said, "You can go ask Dr. Juanzi to see if we are familiar with each other. If she wants to testify against me, let her put herself in the right position first and produce the evidence!"
Gu Xinliang's eyes flashed with a sharpness. He lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. The smoke lingered around his face. He slowly said, "You were at the scene when Juanzi fainted. You must give me a reasonable explanation for this matter." His voice was low and powerful, revealing unquestionable majesty.
Su Chenjin calmly showed the photo to Xu Tian. At that moment, time seemed to freeze.
In the photo, the night in Juanzi's dormitory is quiet and deep, with only a dim light shining in the corner of the dining table.
And Xu Tian's key chain, the little object that she had always regarded as a lucky charm, was now lying alone at the leg of the table.
Seeing this scene, Xu Tian's eyes instantly became anxious and flustered. She eagerly explained: "Director, it really wasn't me! You have to believe me! My key chain is lost, and I just found out. I usually only use my car on Thursday afternoons, and it is locked in the carport at other times. You can't deprive me of my political rights because of this misunderstanding! This is about my reputation and future, you can't hurt me!"
Xu Tian's voice trembled slightly, and she clenched her hands together, as if she was looking for a little strength to support herself. Her eyes were full of anxiety and uneasiness, as if the whole world was collapsing.
However, in front of Gu Xinliang and Su Chenjin, she had to remain calm and firm. She took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound calmer and firmer: "Director, you are right. I did have an argument with Dr. Juanzi in the hospital. But that was because she refused to give me medicine, and many students needed it at the time. I did not do anything excessive to her, let alone cause her to faint. I can guarantee this."
After Xu Tian finished speaking, the office fell into a brief silence.
Gu Xinliang and Su Chenjin looked at each other, and a trace of deep thought flashed in their eyes. They knew that this matter was far from being that simple. And Xu Tian was definitely not as innocent as he seemed on the surface.
Gu Xinliang's eyes were filled with sharp light, like a sword being unsheathed. He said in a deep voice, "Okay, Xu Tian, I believe you are not lying this time."
Xu Tian's mouth curled up into an awkward smile, and he scratched his head. "Regarding that keychain, really, I still haven't thought about where it would be lost. I always thought it would appear on its own. Director, you know, I am a carefree person. For the Student Union, I have really put in a lot of effort. Well, I have said everything I need to say, Director, I am leaving first."
Gu Xinliang turned his gaze to Su Chenjin, with a bit of inquiry and deepness, "It seems that Xu Tian is really not the person we are looking for. What do you think?"
Su Chenjin frowned slightly, her eyes flashing with a sharp light, "He did hide part of the truth. He and Zheng Zheng have a special relationship. The two often meet, and their communication seems to be very secret."
Gu Xinliang's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he stared at Su Chenjin closely. "Do you think your aunt's illness is just a small footnote in this intricate network of relationships? What is the real key? What have you discovered?"
Su Chenjin was silent for a moment, and then she continued, "I think there is something wrong with the school hospital's purchase list. I am not sensitive to numbers, but I can feel that something is wrong."
Gu Xinliang raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes looked at Su Chenjin with sharp gaze.
Su Chenjin handed over a photo of the purchase list. He looked at it carefully for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Xiaojin, you are right. There are indeed many problems in the purchase process. But this is not within our jurisdiction. I firmly believe that your aunt is innocent, but at this sensitive time, she may be implicated without reason."
Su Chenjin nodded in agreement. "I understand your concerns. There are few clues at the moment. I still feel suspicious about Xu Tian, and he is already on guard."
Gu Xinliang frowned, and he analyzed: "He might harm your aunt. Has her nightmare condition improved recently?"
Su Chenjin said firmly: "I am with her every day, don't worry."
Gu Xinliang nodded gently. He advised: "This case is complicated. You must remain calm and do not act rashly. Protecting yourself is the most important thing."
Su Chenjin said solemnly, "I know what's going on."
Gu Xinliang smiled slightly, and that smile was like the warm sunshine in early spring, warm and bright. He changed the subject, pointed his finger at a pot of Pu'er tea on the table, and said, "Come, try this Yunnan Pu'er. I heard that it has many benefits for women, it can beautify the skin and help digestion."
He picked up the teapot and poured a cup of crimson tea for Su Chenjin.
The fragrance of tea filled the air, filling the entire room with a touch of warmth.
Gu Xinliang took out another piece of exquisite pastry from the plate, handed it to Su Chenjin, and said softly: "Eat a piece of pastry, drink some tea, and enjoy your afternoon tea."
Su Chenjin took the pastry, her eyebrows were curved and as bright as the crescent moon.
Her smile is as bright and charming as a flower in spring.
She took a light bite of the pastry, and the sweet taste spread in her mouth, as if the whole world had become sweet.
In this tense moment, this tranquility and warmth are particularly precious.
After class in the evening, Su Chenjin was walking on the way back to the dormitory. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her, casting a long shadow.
Suddenly, the sound of an ambulance siren broke the silence. She looked up and saw a white 120 ambulance parked urgently downstairs of Juanzi's dormitory building.
Su Chenjin's heart suddenly tightened and she walked forward quickly.
I saw Juanzi lying on a stretcher, her face as pale as paper, her eyes closed, and she seemed to have lost consciousness.
Her roommates gathered around the ambulance, worry and anxiety written all over their faces.
Just then, Su Chenjin saw Juanzi's colleague, the 53-year-old doctor Aunt Wang.
Her face was full of anxiety and her hands were clenched tightly together, looking for strength to support herself.
When Aunt Wang saw Su Chenjin coming over, her expression relaxed a little.
She walked quickly to Su Chenjin and said anxiously, "You are Juanzi's relative Su Chenjin, right? You came at the right time. Juanzi suddenly fainted. When I found her, her condition was very bad. I want to accompany you to send Juanzi to the hospital. You can learn about her situation on the way and give her some comfort."
Aunt Wang and Su Chenjin got on the car one after another.
Juanzi was rushed to the hospital's emergency room, which was filled with the pungent smell of disinfectant and the low roar of machines running.
Aunt Wang waited anxiously outside the door, her hands clenched, her eyes full of worry and regret. She kept looking in the direction of the operating room, looking for a little comfort.
Just then, Su Chenjin hurried over with Juanzi's test reports.
Aunt Wang took the list, quickly scanned the words on it, and then fixed her eyes on the eye-catching number in that column.
Her face turned pale in an instant, as if all the blood had been drained from her.
"What a pity, he is still so young." Aunt Wang murmured in a low voice, her voice filled with endless regret.
She looked up at the ceiling, tears glistening in her eyes, "I just had an argument with Juanzi, and I didn't expect to faint from anger."
Her words were like an invisible sword, piercing deeply into Su Chenjin's heart.
Aunt Wang continued, "I will never quarrel with her again."
Su Chenjin stood in front of Aunt Wang, with an invisible force supporting him from behind. "Aunt, I have something I want to verify with you. Our Student Union President Xu Tian told me that he had previously requested medicine from the school hospital, but has not received it yet. I want to know, who is in charge of the school hospital's procurement work?"
Aunt Wang was stunned by Su Chenjin's words. She opened her eyes wide, as if she couldn't believe her ears.
She was stunned for a while, and then she slowly said, "Student Su Chenjin, I don't know what you are talking about. But I can tell you that the school hospital's procurement work has always been the responsibility of the school's logistics department."
Su Chenjin frowned, she felt that this matter was not simple.
The half hour seemed to be stretched out by endless anxiety and anticipation.
Every second is filled with uncertainty and worry about Juanzi's fate.
The air was filled with tension, like a powder keg about to explode, which could burst into flames at any time.
Finally, after endless waiting, a miracle happened.
Juanzi's eyelids trembled slightly, like the first ray of light before dawn, heralding the arrival of hope.
A tear fell from the corner of her eye, as if she was declaring her unyielding spirit to fate. That tear, like a precious pearl, sparkled with the brilliance of life.
Then, Juanzi's fingers moved slightly, as if she was groping for something.
At this moment, all the waiting and anxiety turned into tears of joy, rolling in everyone's eyes. The doctors excitedly held each other's hands, their eyes filled with incredible joy.
Juanzi finally woke up. Although her eyes were still a little confused, they were full of the spark of life.
She looked at the familiar faces around her and a weak smile appeared on her lips.
"Auntie, you finally woke up!"
When Su Chenjin saw her aunt wake up, at that moment, the burden in her heart seemed to be lifted instantly, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
These days, she was like a spinning top, being pulled by Juanzi's illness and spinning non-stop, without a moment's peace.
Juanzi's illness was like an invisible mountain, pressing down on her, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
During the days when Juanzi was sick, she was busy taking care of Juanzi, handing her medicine, cooking for her, and taking care of her daily life, and she did not dare to slack off for a moment.
Now that her condition is under control, Su Chenjin feels she can have a good night's sleep.
The hospital corridor was quiet, with only the occasional sound of instruments and Juanzi's faint breathing.
Su Chenjin sat on the bench. Although she was exhausted, she had fallen into a light sleep.
Su Chenjin closed his eyes, but all he could think of was Juanzi's pale and painful face. Those images were like nightmares that could not be shaken off.
At five o'clock in the morning, Su Chenjin was awakened by thirst. She got up to look for water, but found a black figure sneaking into Juanzi's ward.
The figure's movements were agile and strange, causing Su Chenjin's heartbeat to accelerate instantly, and an inexplicable fear surged in his heart.
She tightly grasped the water cup in her hand, sweat oozing out of her palms. Who was that? Why did he sneak into the ward in the middle of the night?
Su Chenjin's heart was filled with confusion and anxiety. She wanted to go forward and find out who the black shadow was and what his purpose was.
However, at this moment, Aunt Wang had already gotten up early and appeared at the end of the corridor. She saw Su Chenjin standing at the door of the ward with a nervous and confused look on her face, and immediately understood what she was thinking.
"Don't go in, Juanzi needs to rest now!" Aunt Wang's voice was filled with a hint of anxiety and worry.
There were complex emotions flashing in her eyes, telling Su Chenjin that some things are not as simple as they seem.
Su Chenjin was temporarily stunned by Aunt Wang's words, but the doubts in her heart did not dissipate.
She looked at Aunt Wang's serious and anxious face, and a strong urge surged in her heart.
She knew that the black shadow just now was definitely not an illusion, nor was it a harmless existence.
"Aunt Wang, I want to go see my aunt!" Su Chenjin's voice was firm and powerful. She decided to uncover the truth of all this herself.
However, Aunt Wang stepped forward and tried to block her way. Her eyes were full of helplessness and pleading, as if she was asking Su Chenjin not to step into danger. "No, no, you can't go in!" Aunt Wang's tone was firm.
Su Chenjin was stunned. She looked at the expression on Aunt Wang's face and felt a chill in her heart.
Could it be that Aunt Wang knows something? What secrets are hidden behind my aunt's illness?
Su Chenjin's heart was filled with doubts and uneasiness, the truth must be revealed.
At this moment, Juanzi's ward door was suddenly pushed open. A faint light shone through the crack in the door, illuminating the dark corridor. Su Chenjin's heartbeat accelerated instantly. She tightly grasped the water cup in her hand and stared at the door nervously.
Who could it be? Which mysterious person? Su Chenjin's heartbeat was like thunder. However, when the door was fully opened, an unexpected person appeared in front of her...
