The brain itself is connected with fear, and when you open your heart, you feel more.
Li Baiyu contemplated Shen Jingqi’s words.
Although the card test they just did seed quite foolish, it indeed brought her closer to her heart.
Over the years, thinking back on the past, it really always revolves around two words.
Fear.
This fear hasn’t dissipated to this day; it’s even constantly changing forms, plunging into deep anxiety and the unknown.
Li Baiyu didn’t respond and fell into silence.
To Shen Jingqi, this precisely indicated that so part of his words reached Li Baiyu’s heart.
No denial, no explanation, no longer belittling.
She also needs so ti to sprout branches, to touch the base of life.
"Let’s understand your situation here a bit more, how did you sleep last night?"
Shen Jingqi changed the topic.
"I had insomnia last night."
"Was it because of the environnt?"
"Partly. But it’s not the main reason."
"Then it’s because of how you feel."
"Feelings? I really felt a bit uneasy. Normally, Tuantuan is always around, with the lights off, I can fall asleep quickly. But last night, I couldn’t fall asleep for a long ti, needing to keep the lights on. I finally fell asleep, probably because I was just too tired."
"Because Tuantuan is a special presence, having its company makes you feel at ease."
"Presence."
"Exactly, that’s what I need."
Li Baiyu murmured.
"Everything’s fine in this hospital, except that they don’t allow cats, which isn’t good."
"Indeed, not good. Otherwise, having it here would make more people clutch at their clothes, headphones, and if soone’s wearing a wig, they’d need to be extra careful."
Li Baiyu chuckled.
"I’m just complaining. Anyway, I’ll be going ho in a week. I’ll just endure it for these few days."
Li Baiyu stared at Shen Jingqi:
"Can I video call you when I can’t sleep? I think looking at the cat might help."
"Of course, you can."
Shen Jingqi thought this request was sowhat hard to refuse.
Who knows how late Li Baiyu would stay up before she could sleep.
"Senior, can I talk to you about sothing?" Shen Jingqi asked:
"I need to exercise every day, when I get ho at night, I need to do about 30 minutes while letting the cat play by itself, is that alright?"
"Sure. Just do it in the cat room, but the video needs to stay on."
"eting ti, eting ti."
Li Baiyu’s notification chid again.
"Alright, I have a eting, see you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
"Oh, thank you for this." Li Baiyu shook the lip balm.
Shen Jingqi looked at Li Baiyu’s lips, the chapped parts were now nourished, with a hint of redness.
"Alright, hurry out, I’m in a video eting, it wouldn’t be good if others saw you."
Li Baiyu urged Shen Jingqi, surprisingly sounding slightly coy.
Shen Jingqi returned to the office to reevaluate Li Baiyu’s current situation.
Regarding Li Baiyu’s family situation, she was completely unaware.
Usually, when patients are hospitalized, there are family mbers accompanying them.
Before taking in new patients, the first consultation involves communicating with the visitors and gathering so impressions from family mbers.
This was the first ti for a case like Li Baiyu’s.
She ca on her own, without any family mbers, nor did she provide any related information.
Considering the coming developnts, Shen Jingqi planned to consult the dean for more information.
[Shen Jingqi]: Dean, are you there? I’d like to talk to you.
She ssaged Dean Zhang.
No response ca through.
Shen Jingqi idly spun in her chair.
The fruit bowl on the common table was as clean as a whistle.
"Senior Fellow, have the fruits for today arrived?"
"Not yet, I’ll place an order, anyone who wants fruit or drinks, place your orders."
"Jingqi, I’ll go with you to pick them up later." Huang Yang enthusiastically offered.
"Alright."
Balance work and leisure.
As ntal workers, they need to step out now and then to clear their minds.
Going out for a walk is just perfect for relaxing.
Opened the app.
A rich variety of fruits and drinks, afternoon tea is plentiful.
Organic strawberries.
Golden mangoes.
Ripe bananas.
Juicy peaches.
Freshly picked blueberries.
Golden Pasture natural prairie pure milk.
So of these were chosen for Li Baiyu.
She’s busy now, I’ll deliver them to her in the evening.
In no ti, everyone in the office had selected a big batch.
"Alright, let’s go with these. Let’s go."
Huang Yang gathered the list and stood up.
At the cafeteria, six large bags were already packed.
"Senior Sister, you take these two lighter bags."
Shen Jingqi picked up four bags that seed evidently heavier.
"Thank you, Junior Brother, not only are you handso, but strong too."
Carrying the afternoon tea, they walked out of the cafeteria.
"What’s that?"
Huang Yang pointed at a figure in the corridor.
That person was dressed in strange tight-fitting clothes, wearing a mask, a cap, and seed to be holding sothing like a long stick, running hurriedly.
After the renovation, so of the corridors in the hospital building were designed to have a high-tech feel. Seen from the outside, one can vaguely make out the glass interiors, yet it feels elusive.
"This is the fourth floor; that person seems like a caregiver or soone hired for so construction work. It’s surprising to see how our hospital building looks from the outside."
Huang Yang talked to himself.
Indeed, the dical staff here often work from eight to five, spending the whole day shuttling between the wards or office, rarely having ti to look outside.
But Shen Jingqi noticed sothing odd.
Although she couldn’t see the person’s face clearly, Shen Jingqi could see the tag over their head.
It was Dean Zhang’s tag information.
She checked her phone.
15:36.
Dean Zhang still hadn’t responded.
Seems like he really is busy.
Shen Jingqi found it strange, why was Dean Zhang disguised like this, and for what purpose?
"What are you thinking?"
Huang Yang asked.
"Nothing, let’s go up."
Shen Jingqi wasn’t particularly curious about Dean Zhang’s actions.
Right now, his main concern is Li Baiyu’s situation.
He needs to get so information about Li Baiyu from Dean Zhang.
Now, compared to his usual habit of not checking ssages, he’s been looking at his phone significantly more.
The office was still filled with the usual joyous laughter.
Entire six large bags, besides the things they liked to eat themselves, they shared with each other too.
Shen Jingqi quickly took a milk carton and then used a box to pick her chosen fruits, putting them together.
After arranging everything, she chose a pink sticky note, carefully wrote on it with a pen, and stuck it on the box.
Handwritten: [Fruits to supplent vitamins. Blueberries for eye care. Milk aids sleep, drink before bed.]
After packing, she placed it inside the desk, out of anyone’s reach.
Then sent a ssage to Li Baiyu.
[Shen Jingqi]: Senior, I’ve prepared so fruits for you, let know when you’re free so I can bring them to you.
Putting the phone down, Shen Jingqi happily enjoyed the afternoon tea on the table.
"The whole day long, it’s just eating and eating, without exercise, I’ve gained more than ten pounds." Huang Yang sighed as he ate.
"Without exercise, it’s hard to lose weight. It’s almost four now. You’ll have dinner by five again. I think it’s hard not to gain weight for you."
Senior Fellow Gao Kang laughed teasingly.
"Oh co on, I’m eating right now, saying that really affects appetite."
"I doubt it, you’ve been eating non-stop, never idle. If you could be affected by appetite, you wouldn’t be this chubby."
"You old Kang, your words are so harsh. How co Jingqi’s body is so fit?"
"Jingqi exercises every day, unlike you."
Huang Yang and Gao Kang playfully bantered, bringing waves of energy to the office.
Finally, Dean Zhang responded.
16:15.
[Dean Zhang]: In fifteen minutes, co to my office.
Shen Jingqi checked the ti, stood up, and leisurely headed towards the office.
Just in ti, waiting outside for a while, taking a stroll, helps to digest.
Soon, Shen Jingqi reached outside the dean’s office.
Through the wall, she vaguely saw a long strip fra moving inside the office.
