'Beep beep beep'
Wen Yan felt as if her consciousness was being sucked into a black hole, suddenly compressed, and then suddenly released.
The moment she entered the vessel, she heard a beeping sound, like that of an instrument.
Perhaps because her mind hadn't adjusted yet, she felt as if her eyelids were incredibly heavy, and it took her quite a while before she could finally open her eyes.
The scene before me was a hospital ward, where she was lying on a hospital bed with an IV drip in her arm.
The moment he moved, a nurse immediately came over.
"You're awake? Is anything bothering you?"
At this moment, Wen Yan was not sure which world she had entered, because none of the nurses or patients in her room looked familiar.
"What happened to the two people who were with me? A fat man and a young girl who was pregnant."
Wen Yan recounted all the characteristics of Fatty and Xiao Meng in one go. If the nurse could answer them correctly, then she would undoubtedly have returned to her original world!
She looked at the nurse, her eyes filled with expectation.
The nurse frowned: "They weren't as lucky as you; their injuries were more serious. They've already been transferred to a larger hospital. We're a small hospital, and our equipment isn't complete."
Wen Yan's heart sank: "How long have they been transferred to another hospital? How long have I been unconscious?"
The nurse thought for a moment and said, "It will be a little over a day. I'll go and call the doctor for you."
"Wait, please wait a moment. I have other questions I'd like to ask you." Wen Yan wanted to gather as much information as possible.
She now knows that time flows differently in the two worlds; several years have passed there, but only a little over a day has passed here.
We don't know how Xiaomeng and Pang Ge are doing now, whether the rescue went smoothly, or whether anyone will step forward to cover the subsequent costs.
"I want to know who paid for my and my companion's medical expenses. Has the hospital contacted any relatives?"
"Yes," the nurse said. "I know you. You're Wen Yan, right? I was watching one of your dramas a while ago. We contacted your agency through your ID and phone contacts. They're here to handle the related matters. Someone called this morning to inquire about your situation. I'll give you your phone in a bit, so you can contact them yourself. As for your two companions, they were also transferred to another hospital by your company. You can ask them about them later."
"Okay, thank you so much!"
-
That pit was really too deep. After the car accident, Wen Yan broke two ribs, fractured her right leg, and broke her left hand.
But this is the least serious of the three, since it's just an 'external injury'.
The older brother's condition was more serious; multiple organs in his abdominal cavity were damaged, and he had to undergo a spleen removal surgery and has been in the ICU ever since.
Xiaomeng wasn't much better off. She lost her baby, her stomach was punctured by a tree branch, and for a long time after the surgery she could only eat liquid food and her condition was very poor.
To make matters worse, her family situation is dire. Her parents both live in other cities; her father works away from home, while her mother stays home to help her younger brother take care of his children. They say they have to pick up and drop off their grandchildren at school every day, so they don't have time to come to the big city to care for her, who is seriously injured.
Her fiancé was also terrible; the hospital contacted him on the very day she was transferred. When she first arrived at the hospital, the young man seemed quite anxious, but as soon as he heard that Xiaomeng's baby couldn't be saved, he immediately turned around and left without looking back.
The medical insurance that the company bought for Xiaomeng can only reimburse a portion of the costs; she has to pay the rest out of her own pocket.
Fatty is in the same situation. However, his situation is slightly better, as he still has the care of his parents and wife.
Wen Yan paid for all their medical expenses.
It was thanks to her money that Fatty was able to survive and Xiaomeng was able to recover normally.
Every time Wen Yan saw them getting better little by little, she was glad that she had chosen to come back.
Her conscience was forgiven by herself.
Of course, Wen Yan herself also needs to recover from her injuries.
It took about a year for her injuries to heal almost completely.
During that year, she was unable to work and essentially lived off her savings.
Throughout the year, she would often think of her family in the other world, because she was afraid that she would forget, just as she had gradually forgotten about this world in the previous world.
In order to make her memories 'eternal', Wen Yan even wrote down everything that happened in that world in the past.
But people always need to look forward; they can't live in the past forever.
Therefore, as soon as she recovered, Wen Yan threw herself back into her work.
Most of the money was spent on the three injured people, including herself. If she didn't work, she probably wouldn't even have dirt to eat.
Days passed by like this, one after another.
In her spare time, Wen Yan even thought about going back to the place where she traveled to find gold.
When she returned, she brought a box of gold and silver jewelry to Pit 46.
But fate played a cruel trick on her. By the time Wen Yan recovered and returned, the hole had already been filled.
Wen Yan was somewhat disappointed when she first heard the news.
She thought that if she hadn't stayed in the hospital bed for so long, if she had gone back sooner, she might have been able to dig out her gold from the bottom of the pit.
After talking to the locals, I learned that the pit was not filled in by humans.
The landslide occurred after the three of them were rescued, and they were naturally buried by the rocks.
After that, the road was rerouted and all vehicles were prohibited from passing through.
Looking at it this way, it seems that everything was already destined.
