In the future chat group, I'll become the richest man by just eating gossip.

Chapter 4 The aftermath
hiss--

"It hurts..."

Extreme joy brings sorrow!

Because she laughed too hard, she aggravated her wound, causing Feng Nan to wince in pain.

But what does suffering matter if you can live?
Feng Nan was really happy.

but……

Soon, her rumbling stomach stopped her from laughing. If she didn't eat, she might suffer from hypoglycemia. Given her excessive blood loss, the glucose in her IV drip was simply not enough.

Feng Nan tried to move her hands.

Ok!

Although it's as soft as noodles, it can still move.

This delighted Feng Nan.

Despite the pain from the incisions, Feng Nan moved her limp body and sat up from the hospital bed.

With difficulty, he reached out and pressed the call button.

For an ordinary person, even the simplest action exhausted all of Feng Nan's strength.

Feng Nan leaned weakly against the headboard, quietly waiting for her angel in white to arrive like a peerless hero, riding on auspicious clouds.

Under Feng Nan's expectant gaze, a series of light footsteps echoed in the corridor outside the ward.

That doesn't sound like footsteps at all!

It's clearly the march of her rebirth!
squeak-

The ward door was pushed open from the outside.

A young woman dressed as a nurse from the Second Hospital hurried into the ward.

Why did you sit up?

Upon seeing Feng Nan sitting on the hospital bed, the nurse exclaimed in surprise and quickly walked to the bedside.

"Come on, lie down!"

The nurse helped Feng Nan lie down again.

"Are there any discomforts?"

While skillfully checking Feng Nan's wound under the bandage to see if it had reopened, the nurse gently inquired about Feng Nan's physical condition.

"Hungry!"

Feng Nan spoke up.

"It's okay if it hurts..."

"Ok?"

The nurse realized something was wrong halfway through her sentence, looked at Feng Nan in surprise, and subconsciously asked, "What did you say?"

Feng Nan weakly forced a smile: "Nurse, I'm hungry..."

This time, the nurse heard her clearly.

He looked at Feng Nan in surprise.

"You are hungry?"

The nurse asked in surprise.

Feng Nan nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice.

"wait!"

"I'll go get the on-duty doctor to come and give you a check-up."

"Be good and don't move around. I'll bring you food when I get back!"

The nurse said gently.

Feng Nan nodded, indicating that she would behave.

After a thorough examination by the doctor, Feng Nan was finally able to eat the meal she had been longing for!
Although it was just a simple steamed egg custard, Feng Nan found it exceptionally delicious.

The warm steamed egg custard saved her from her long-standing hunger pangs and helped her regain her lost energy.

"Nurse, was my cell phone brought with me when I was brought to the hospital?"

With food in her stomach, Feng Nan started paying attention to her phone.

Now, she was eager to check out the chat group in the laid-back town to verify her doubts.

"I brought it with me, it's here!"

The nurse smiled and took out the "Leading the Way" phone that Feng Nan both loved and hated from the bedside table.

"Our attending nurse has been helping you recharge, so your battery should be full now. Do you want to contact your family?"

The nurse handed the phone to Feng Nan.

"I have no family..."

Feng Nan smiled wryly.

The nurse was taken aback.

His gaze towards Feng Nan held a hint of pity and heartache. "I'm so sorry!"

"I……"

"it does not matter!"

"I stopped caring a long time ago!"

Before the nurse could finish her apology, Feng Nan smiled and shook her head.

"Yes, you are very strong!"

"They also have a strong will to survive!"

"You've survived several life-threatening illnesses. You're destined for good fortune; your future is bright!"

The nurse said with a smile.

"Then I'll take your kind words, sister."

Feng Nan said with a smile.

"Ok!"

"Most definitely!"

"I still have work to do."

"Take your time eating. Ring the bell if you need anything."

The nurse said with a smile.

Feng Nan nodded: "Thank you, sister."

"You're welcome!"

The nurse walked out of the ward with light, quick steps, like a joyful butterfly.

Feng Nan placed the steamed egg custard in her hand on the bedside table and unlocked her phone.

Looking at the time and date on her phone screen, Feng Nan was stunned: July 8, 2034, 5:36 AM!

She was in a coma in the hospital for a full ten days!
"what……"

No wonder I'm so hungry.

Feng Nan shook his head and gave a wry smile.

Upon finding the Leisure Town APP, Feng Nan eagerly tapped the APP icon and entered the chat group.

Upon entering the chat group, Feng Nan didn't rush to see the latest gossip discussed by the group members. Instead, she looked for the news link that the group members had shared ten days ago about her execution.

Whether the connection is still active is what Feng Nan is most concerned about right now; she has too many questions to verify.

Feng Nan's fingers flew across the phone screen.

She scrolled through the chat history one by one.

No. 5…

No. 1…

No. 28…

Number 26!
Feng Nan scrolled through the chat history all the way back to the first chat at 01:28 AM on the 26th, but still couldn't find the news link about her execution...

"Hahaha……"

Feng Nan smiled.

Laughing very happily!
"I really defied fate and changed my destiny..."

Feng Nan laughed until she was breathless.

There's a sense of exhilaration in me, a feeling of conquering the future.

This feeling is really great!
Feng Nan put down her phone, picked up the steamed egg custard, took a spoon, and began to eat it in large mouthfuls.

She ate while tears streamed down her face.

Feng Nan's feelings are extremely complicated right now.

My heart is filled with mixed feelings!

Those who haven't had the same experience simply cannot understand it, and even Feng Nan herself cannot explain it clearly; it can only be understood intuitively, not explained in words.

Is it joy?
Is it relief?
Is it the bitterness of surviving a disaster?

It seems like it is, and it seems like it is neither!
After finishing the last bite of steamed egg custard, Feng Nan wiped her mouth, closed the disposable lunchbox, placed it on the bedside table, and picked up her phone again.

Just to be on the safe side, Feng Nan decided to verify with the other group members.

Looking at her group nickname, which was still just a string of numbers and had no profile picture, Feng Nan changed her profile picture to a plum blossom standing proudly in the wind and snow, and also gave herself a group nickname: Braised Pork Belly with Preserved Vegetables!
A simple nickname, yet it perfectly reveals Feng Nan's foodie nature.

[Braised Pork Belly with Preserved Mustard Greens: Guys, does anyone have news about the murder of the novelist that happened in Tianfu Residential Area, Tang City, in the early morning of June 27, 2034? I can't find it here.]

Having long since learned to be patient, Feng Nan knew the secret to making a fortune in silence was simply to be "quiet".

Therefore, Feng Nan had no intention of exposing herself.

Instead, they tried their best to disguise themselves.

[Gossip Guru: Oh, that news article? I had it saved. Why did you suddenly look for such an old news story?]
