Just standing at the doorway, you can clearly see the person on the hospital bed through the narrow glass of the door.
His eyes are tightly shut, without a hint of life.
Every ti, Mr. Xu would tell Wanxia that Xu Qiubai’s condition is very good, and he might wake up tomorrow.
Wanxia would smile and nod.
After leaving the hospital, sotis she would go to the amusent park, because she couldn’t even get close to the entrance of a bar; every ti she went out, soone would always be following her.
In the amusent park, joyful laughter could be heard everywhere, making her feel that the days were not so hard to bear.
————
The night’s breeze was very cool, and Wanxia wanted to walk by herself, so the driver followed behind her with the car.
The bus stops, the mall’s billboards, and the electronic screens on the square were all showing ads for Shen Weiyi’s currently popular ten-year anniversary concert.
Every ti she walked a little bit further, she’d see another one.
The goddess’s photo was beautifully retouched, appearing almost otherworldly.
Wanxia hadn’t looked back, so she didn’t know that Jin Sinan had been following her for half an hour.
Until Wanxia’s forehead bumped into the back of Jin Sinan’s hand, she raised her head, staring blankly at him.
There was an electric pole at the intersection; Jin Sinan saw that she didn’t even seem to want to turn and was walking towards the pole, so he sped up to put his hand on the pole right before she hit it.
Jin Sinan knocked on the electric pole with his hand, then looked at Wanxia with a half-smile, "I think maybe it’s still harder."
Wanxia snapped out of her daze and realized what had happened, quietly thanking him, "Thank you."
Jin Sinan squinted, assessing Wanxia, whom he hadn’t seen in a while, "Have you been eating lately?"
Wanxia didn’t initially understand why he was asking such a thing, but then she realized—even when she looked in the mirror, she thought she might just be bones and a thin layer of skin.
She faintly smiled, "Three als a day, every al a feast."
Her answer was obviously dismissive, and Jin Sinan didn’t expose it, "Other girls use all sorts of strange thods to lose weight and don’t even lose a pound; you’re sothing else, swallowing bulls at every al yet looking like this."
"What do you an by looking like this?" Wanxia wasn’t happy, "This is called a skinny beauty, it’s very trendy, haven’t you seen Victoria’s Secret models all look like ?"
Jin Sinan chuckled, not arguing, but his gaze once again swept over Wanxia.
Finally, he waved a finger nonchalantly in front of Wanxia.
Wanxia seed disinclined to bicker with him, gave him a disdainful glance, and continued walking past him.
Jin Sinan shrugged indifferently, lifted his steps and caught up, "A friend of mine recently got a motorcycle, modified by a professional racer. It’s thrilling to ride; want to take you for a spin?"
She needed to vent.
There were things he couldn’t help her with, but after speeding, shouting at the sea could relieve a lot of stress.
Wanxia shook her head, "Forget it, I don’t want to shiver in the cold wind."
"The bodyguards drive four-wheelers; I won’t need ten minutes to shake them off. Gu Shaozhi seems to still be at the company, he won’t catch up for a while."
"It’s got nothing to do with others, I’m just not over my cold, and I was taken down by a friend before, so I have a fear."
Jin Sinan was about to say sothing more, but the phone ringing in Wanxia’s bag interrupted him.
It was Mr. Xu calling.
Wanxia answered, and Mr. Xu’s excited voice ca through, "Wanxia, Qiubai has woken up!"
