This sentence made everyone present pause for a moment. Even Mitsuyu didn't expect Ai to say that.

After realizing what was happening, Xiaolan smiled slightly, nodded, and said, "It's good that Guangyou needs to rest now, and someone can stay and take care of him."

"We'll be going now, we'll pick you up tomorrow at noon."

After saying that, Ran pulled Conan away from the ward.

Where are you sleeping tonight?

Kōyū raised an eyebrow at Ai and smiled meaningfully.

There's only one bed in this ward, so sleeping on the floor is out of the question, which means... hehehehe.

Don't get the wrong idea, it's just a gentlemanly night's rest.

Even if they had the intention, what could they do with a child's current physical condition, where it's difficult for them to even move?

Moreover, Kōyū had no such thoughts. He was just recalling the scene from a while ago when Ai was sleeping in his arms, a scene that was really heartwarming.

"We'll see when the time comes."

Ai, who knew exactly what Kōyū meant, didn't respond directly and immediately changed the subject, saying, "I'm going out to buy some fruit now, I'll be back soon."

"Be careful on the road."

Looking at the closed door, Guangyou closed his eyes, preparing to take a short nap.

Today is arguably the most dangerous day he has ever been in this world.

It's basically like dancing in front of death, showing off your level 7 dog tag, and then successfully escaping.

After narrowly escaping death, Guangyou was exhausted both mentally and physically, and soon fell into a light sleep.

This time there was no dream, just some things he dreamed about.

For example, some of his own plans that were not yet ready.

...

"Click..."

The sudden sound of the door opening gradually woke Guangyou from his sleep.

Did I disturb you?

Ai placed the fruit she had bought on the bedside table, and seeing Kōyū groggily open his eyes, she whispered, "If you want to sleep, just keep sleeping. Don't worry about me."

"I'm fine."

Guangyou smacked his lips, slowly raised his hand, and tried making a fist.

Perhaps because the porridge provided some energy, and after resting for a while, Guangyou felt that his movements were much smoother, but he still couldn't lift heavy objects.

Next, Kwang-yu tried other parts of his body, such as his legs and feet.

The test results delighted Guangyou; he can now move his whole body slightly.

Although he can't stand up yet, judging from the looks of it, he'll probably be able to walk slowly with someone's help tomorrow.

This is already a very good result, and Guangyou is very satisfied.

Would you like an apple?

Ai took the plastic box containing the apples out of the bag, used the included fork to pick up a peeled piece of apple, and offered it to Kōyū's mouth.

She specifically chose apples that had already been cut into pieces by the shopkeeper, not because she was too lazy to peel them, but because if she did, the boy in front of her would probably nag her for a while, saying things like "be careful."

Ai loves hearing such caring words. Every time she hears them, her heart pounds and she feels warm inside.

However, she was worried that the boy was so nervous about her slightly burned hand today. She didn't want to take any risks. She didn't care if she accidentally hurt herself, but she figured the boy would frown again.

She didn't like the expression on the boy's face.

"It's quite sweet."

Guangyou chewed on an apple, the sweet juice flowing between his teeth. After swallowing the piece of fruit, he looked at Ai with a slight smile and said, "Don't just eat it all by myself, you eat some too. I definitely can't finish it all."

"Um."

Ai didn't say anything like "This is all for you." Instead, she obediently picked up a piece of apple, put it in her mouth, chewed it a few times, and nodded affirmatively, "It's delicious."

Even though he didn't grow the apples, a faint smile unconsciously appeared on Kōyū's lips when he heard Ai say they were delicious.

He just wanted to see the smile on the girl's face.

For the first ten years or so, smiles were hard to find on her face, but in the following decades, Guangyou wanted to make smiles a permanent feature on her face.

This is not just empty talk.

The two of them took turns eating apples and quickly finished off all the apples in the box.

The taste of apples lingered in their mouths for a long time, and they thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility of the moment.

"clatter."

The hour hand of the wall clock pointed to a large black number 12, which meant that in the next second, today's date would be over, and the two would usher in a new day.

"Today went by so fast."

Guangyou glanced at the wall clock, shook his head, and sighed softly.

Today was a dangerous day, but also Guangyou's happiest day.

To be more precise, he would be happy no matter what he did as long as he was with Ai.

Compared to seeing a long string of numbers transferred into his account after completing a task in the past, being with her makes Guangyou feel more joyful.

Even if they just sit quietly without saying a word.

"Um."

Xiao Ai nodded slightly and responded.

She also felt that time was passing too quickly. In the past, she wished time would go by as fast as possible so that she could gradually forget the bad memories in her mind as time went by.

Things are different now. She wants to remember everything that has happened recently, and she doesn't want to forget it even as time goes by.

There were so many more things they could have done today. For example, after watching the fireworks from the Ferris wheel, she could have gone for a stroll around the amusement park with him and enjoyed the beautiful night view.
