Looking at herself lying unconscious on the hospital bed, Lin Yan slowly approached and lay down.

I want to try and see if my "soul can return to its place".

But the result disappointed her.

No matter how long she lay there, she remained completely unresponsive in her hospital bed...

She had no choice but to give up.

Feeling inexplicably uneasy about being in the same room as another version of herself, Lin Yan left the ward.

Due to the nature of her work, she gradually drifted apart from her close friends from her school days, and their relationships became distant.

So much so that she has no idea where to go now.

Before she knew it, she had arrived at her grandfather's traditional Chinese medicine clinic...

The clinic was not open, so Lin Yan went up to the second floor. As soon as she entered the room, she heard conversations coming from the living room.

"Are you sure my granddaughter has a dissociative identity disorder and isn't in a vegetative state?"

“Old man, don’t you believe in my abilities? People in a vegetative state are conscious, but Miss Lin is clearly unconscious. In metaphysics, this condition is called dissociative identity disorder.”

The speaker was an unfamiliar monk.

Lin Yan had never seen him before, so she couldn't help but take a few more glances, her heart filled with doubt.

As far as she knows.

Grandpa doesn't usually believe in Buddhism, so why is he having such a pleasant conversation with a monk today?

In the past, Lin Zhongda did not really like his eldest granddaughter.

But when she demonstrated her medical talent, he began to look at her in a new light.

Although his granddaughter did not follow in his footsteps but chose to join the army, he did not blame her.

He understood her difficulties; it was the best way for her to change her fate...

After all, given the nature of his son and daughter-in-law, even if she inherits his mantle, they will probably ruin it.

Thinking of his granddaughter, who lay half-dead in the hospital bed, Lin Zhongda couldn't help but sigh.

"Oh dear, my granddaughter has been lying here for ten days, why hasn't she woken up yet?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan was quite surprised.

She had been in the book for more than half a year, but in her original world, only ten days had passed!

Before she could think about it, the monk's next words surprised her even more.

"Everything is ordained by Heaven, and human effort is ultimately futile. I cannot say too much. But please do not worry, sir. This morning I cast a divination for Miss Lin, which clearly indicated that she has auspicious signs. Moreover, the divination showed that Miss Lin is living well in another place. This phenomenon is what people often call an out-of-body experience."

They take advantage of the fact that they can't see them.

Lin Yan began to carefully examine the monk in front of her.

Looking at his appearance, you can't tell anything special; he has an ordinary appearance, except for his bald head, which is quite eye-catching.

Other than that, there's nothing special.

He's the kind of person you wouldn't notice in a crowd; he's just an ordinary person. But what he just said clearly indicates he's not an ordinary person.

I don't know where Grandpa found this enlightened monk.

Clearly, Lin Zhongda trusted Master Guanyun.

Hearing from Guanyun that his granddaughter was unharmed, he finally breathed a long sigh of relief, and exclaimed with relief at surviving such a close call:

"It's good that you're alright!"

Lin Yan had actually been observing Lin Zhongda the whole time.

Seeing the genuine concern on his face, her wounded heart finally began to heal a little.

At least in this world, there are still relatives who care about whether she lives or dies.

Two flowers bloom, each representing a different branch.

It was just past 7 PM.

Yang Jiayi and his group finally arrived at Xiaolin Village.

Upon entering the main room, Yang Jiayi knelt before Xie Muqing, bowing his head with a look of shame on his face.

“Young Master, Miss Shangguan went to the capital with the Prince a few days ago, and I haven’t seen her. However, I have invited Doctor Yang, the best doctor in the city, to come here.”

Upon suddenly hearing that Shangguan Yun was not in the prefectural city, Xie Muqing's face turned ashen.

His expression softened only after he heard that Doctor Yang had been invited, and hope returned to his heart.

I spent many days in the prefectural city.

He had heard of Yang Shengjie's name.

After helping the person up, Xie Muqing realized there were two other people in the room. Besides the unfamiliar Doctor Yang, there was another face that looked extremely familiar.

Xu Yuze's arrival was completely unexpected.

"Why has Young Master Xu come on such a cold day?"

“Miss Lin is my friend. Now that she is seriously poisoned, how could I not come to visit her?”

A shadow of gloom flashed across Xie Muqing's eyes. He blinked, quietly concealing it, and put on a polite smile again.

"Thank you, Young Master Xu and Doctor Yang. My wife is in the bedroom. Please come this way."

Xie Muqing did not forget the old doctor's words.

As he led the people to the guest rooms, he instructed Yang Jiayi to fetch the old doctor from next door.

Looking at Lin Yan, who seemed to be sleeping peacefully on the kang, Xu Yuze's face showed a hint of doubt, and he looked curiously at the person next to him.

"Young Master Xie, was the previous doctor's diagnosis wrong? Is Miss Lin really poisoned?"

"Yes, it's true. It's a poison called Dream Sorrow."

Xie Muqing closed his eyes tightly in embarrassment.

It's all his fault...

It was his negligence that led Lin Yan into such a dangerous situation.

His complexion was not good, and Xu Yuze assumed it was because he was worried about Lin Yan, so he hesitated before offering some words of comfort:

"Young Master Xie, are you... alright? Don't worry too much. Doctor Yang's father was a royal physician, and his medical skills are superb. I believe he will cure Miss Lin."

Thank you.

Xie Muqing forced a weak smile, compelling herself to stop thinking about it.

In a short while.
