"Heavy rain last night caused a landslide on Xulin Mountain. As of 10 a.m. today, it has resulted in 2 deaths, 1 missing person, and 7 minor injuries..."
Inside the hospital ward, the television was reporting on the accident and disaster that had occurred the previous night.
The survivors were taken to the hospital immediately after being rescued. Because the injured individuals were not ordinary people, the incident has attracted a lot of attention.
Some reporters were also waiting outside the hospital, hoping to capture the latest news.
Inside the ward, the man sat on the edge of the bed, his hand tightly holding the woman's hand.
The woman had bandages wrapped around her forehead, her eyes were closed, and her expression looked painful and struggling, as if she were having a nightmare.
"No, no..."
Hearing her start talking in her sleep again, the man quickly gripped her hand tightly: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here with you."
Whether it was those words or not, the person on the bed suddenly opened their eyes.
Having been unconscious for a day and a night, Song Yifei was now somewhat unable to distinguish between dreams and reality.
As the man's silhouette gradually became clearer, she looked around.
The bright ward was filled with the smell of medicine.
Thankfully, thankfully, those were just dreams. She wasn't locked in a dark, sunless room by those heartless men...
Seeing that she seemed dazed, Xu Yichen reached out and touched her forehead with a pained expression, gently comforting her, "Yifei, did you have a nightmare?"
Thinking of the scene in her dream, a look of horror flashed across Song Yifei's face, and she subconsciously sat up in bed and hugged the man beside her tightly.
Feeling her trembling body, Xu Yichen felt a pang of unease.
If he hadn't insisted on taking her to the mountaintop to see the shooting stars, she wouldn't have been frightened and injured by the landslide.
"It's alright, it's alright. Dreams are the opposite of reality, don't be afraid."
Xu Yichen's voice gradually calmed Song Yifei's wildly beating heart. As if she had thought of something, she looked around again and found that there was no one else besides herself and Xu Yichen.
"Where is Xiao Qi?"
In another ward, the windows were wide open, and several rows of old trees stood below, their greenery symbolizing the yearning for life while also blocking some of the sunlight.
The wind outside, accompanied by the rustling of leaves, sounded like an invisible hand pounding against the window.
The boy sat on the edge of the bed, gazing out the window in a daze. His light-colored hospital gown made his back look somewhat lonely.
The wind outside the window seemed to have picked up, and a green leaf swirled in.
The boy's usually calm eyes flickered, and he somewhat woodenly reached out and caught the green leaf.
Song Qi stared blankly at the leaf in his hand, feeling a sense of emptiness in his heart, as if...
I forgot something.
He clenched the leaf tightly and looked up at the sky outside the ward.
Just then, the ward door was pushed open from the outside, and two figures walked in.
"Yifei, your leg is still injured, walk slowly..."
Hearing the noise, the boy sitting on the bed turned his head and looked over, meeting the eyes of the two people over there.
Upon seeing Song Qi's pale and sickly face, Song Yifei abruptly stopped in her tracks, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
She thought of that dream again.
In her dream, Xiao Qi wasn't her younger brother, and even...
Thinking about what happened in her dream, Song Yifei felt terrible and clenched her fists to force herself to calm down.
After taking a few deep breaths, she opened her eyes and turned her gaze back to the boy on the bed.
"Xiao Qi, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Song Qi tugged at the corners of his lips and smiled.
"Sister, I'm fine."
After he finished speaking, he looked away and continued to stare blankly at the leaves fluttering outside the window.
Even Xu Yichen, who was standing next to Song Yifei, was a little puzzled.
Xiao Qi is very possessive of his older sister. Whenever he sees him standing with Yi Fei, he would have already come forward and pulled Yi Fei away from him.
He didn't even glance at him today, as if he were preoccupied with his own thoughts.
Seeing the bandage wrapped around her younger brother's head, Song Yifei's heart clenched.
She felt very guilty thinking that Xiao Qi had gone up the mountain with her because he was worried about her.
Just as she was about to say something, Xu Yichen gently tugged at her arm.
Before she could react, Xu Yichen had already pulled her arm and left the ward.
Why are you pulling me?
Xu Yichen sighed and looked at the boy sitting by the window in the ward, saying, "Xiao Qi just woke up, let him rest well."
What he said made sense, and Song Yifei nodded, then followed Xu Yichen back to her ward.
Shortly after the two left, a middle-aged man in an expensive suit and a man who appeared to be his assistant appeared outside the ward.
"Are you sure this is the right room?"
He's been so angry these past few days that he can't sleep at all because his son ran away from his arranged marriage to Africa.
If he hadn't seen that face in the news that resembled the woman's when she was young, he wouldn't have known that the woman was already pregnant when she left.
The assistant nodded and pushed open the door to the ward.
On the other side, when Tu Ling arrived at the hospital, she saw Tu Hengchuan, who was wearing a mask, walking out of the elevator.
"You specifically asked the crew for half a day off, what exactly did you go up the mountain for?"
Faced with her question, Tu Hengchuan paused for a moment, his handsome brows furrowing.
He had completely forgotten why he had gone up the mountain in the first place.
Unable to recall, he simply stopped thinking about it and strode towards the hospital entrance.
