Shi Ling told Qin Niao and Xi Jin the news that Zhao Xingbang was still alive, and then took them to visit Zhao Xingbang. Xi Jin and Qin Niao also donated money to the nursing home in the name of Xiguang Hospital and Shimao Group respectively to show their gratitude.

Ever since Shi Yan brought his first love and illegitimate children back to the Shi family villa, Mu Qin had completely broken off relations with Shi Yan. In order to prevent the shares from falling into the hands of Bai Yanru's children, she transferred all her shares to Luo Yuan after the new year and had the inheritance notarized early.

After Luo Yuan got the shares from Mu Qin, he entered Shi Pharmaceutical as the second largest shareholder and officially intervened in the affairs of the Shi family company.

At first, the company's old shareholders and directors thought Luo Yuan was making trouble. It was not until Luo Yuan reached an agreement to cooperate with Xijia Xiguang Hospital and Mei's Pet Hospital, which brought tangible benefits to the company, that those shareholders shut up.

Although Shi Ling was not at the Shi family, she was well aware of their affairs. After all, Luo Yuan would come to the Jing family's old house every few days to see her, supervising her studies while also consulting with Mr. Jing on company matters.

Luo Yuan knew she had no experience, so she always used every opportunity to be humble and eager to learn. Mr. Jing, having been at the helm of Jingsheng Group for many years, naturally possessed considerable business and management experience. Mr. Jing was delighted by Luo Yuan's eagerness to learn, and whenever he caught a glimpse of Shi Ling's playful smile, he felt a pity for her.

Shi Ling felt that she should go home more often and not stay home for too long. In order to prevent Mr. Jing from gradually becoming displeased with her and destroying their precarious relationship between grandparents and grandchildren, after the New Year, she asked Yu Chen to go abroad to find Chi Ou together.

Before this, Shi Ling went to find Li Zhining with doubts in his heart.

…

Xiguang Hospital.

Shi Ling sat on a chair in the corridor outside the ophthalmology operating room, and opposite her was Li Fugui, who was looking forward to the operating room.

Not long after, Li Zhining came out after undergoing minimally invasive eye surgery. Her eyes were covered with a layer of white gauze and she was supported by a doctor.

Li Fugui hurried forward and asked, "Doctor Tang, Doctor Zhou, how was my daughter's surgery?"

"The operation was successful."

Zhou Ze was the surgeon in charge. He was giving instructions on post-operative matters. Li Zhining was sitting on a chair by the corridor and listening carelessly, while Li Fugui was listening seriously, wishing he could write down every word.

Shi Ling sat next to her, looking thoughtfully at Li Zhining's eyes, which were wrapped in white gauze.

Li Zhining suddenly reached out and held her wrist, "Shi Ling, can you take me out for a walk?"

Shi Ling was stunned.

She didn't even say anything, but Li Zhining actually knew it was her? She was indeed not simple.

"good."

Li Zhining smiled at her, then said hello to her father and the doctor, and let Shi Ling take her away. Li Fugui and Zhou Ze were very familiar with Shi Ling and felt very relieved.

The hospital has great greenery, with camphor trees that never wither all year round. Warm sunlight shines through the sparse branches and leaves, and spots of light fill the ground, bright and dark, floating and sinking.

Li Zhining reached out and touched his eyes through the gauze, "I can't see anymore."

Shi Ling: "The doctor said the operation was successful and can be cured."

Li Zhining said calmly, "It can't be cured. Only the eyes of this body will be cured, but my eyes will never be able to see again."

Shi Ling was slightly stunned: "But isn't this body yours?"

She could see that Li Zhining's body was a perfect match for her soul. This was her body.

This person is really weird. He can clearly feel the things around him even with his eyes covered, but he insists that he can't see anything even after his eyes are healed.

Li Zhining tilted his head towards her, his eyes seemingly fixed on her through the gauze, but he only stayed for a moment before leaving. "What do you want from me?"

"About that prophetic painting."
