Su Li struggled fiercely in his arms, crying, "Let me go! Let me go! I need to find Huanian! He's still waiting for me..."
She struggled so fiercely that she lost control of her emotions. Before Ishihara could say anything, the woman in his arms suddenly collapsed and lay motionless.
He quickly stepped forward to support her, saying, "Su Li, Su Li, don't scare me."
Ishihara couldn't wake up and was terrified.
He picked the person up and ran straight outside.
"Su Li, don't be afraid, I'll take you to the hospital right now."
When Su Li woke up again, she was in the hospital.
When Ishihara saw that she was awake, he quickly went over to her and said, "Are you thirsty? Let me get you a glass of water."
Su Li shook her head. She dared not drink the water he gave her now, as it might have been drugged.
"I want to drink millet porridge, could you go and get me a serving?"
Ishihara breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing her words.
"Okay, okay, I'll go call it now. You stay here and be a good boy/girl."
Su Li nodded.
As soon as Ishihara stepped out of the ward and lifted the blanket to get down, an old woman from next door ran over.
"Comrade, you've just woken up, it's not a good time for you to get out of bed. What do you need? I'll help you."
Su Li shook her head: "No need, I'll go by myself, you don't need to worry about me."
The old woman chuckled and said, "Comrade, don't be so polite with me. Your husband told me that if he goes out, he wants me to keep an eye on things for him. He said you're so young but your health isn't good, and he's worried you'll overwork yourself. If you ask me, a man like you is hard to find even with a lantern."
As the old woman spoke, she sized up Su Li. The man said that this woman was a little mentally unstable and somewhat insane.
Sometimes she's lucid and can recognize people, but other times she's not so clear-headed that she can't even recognize her own man. She also tends to wander off, so you need to keep an eye on her.
The man was a little worried, so he gave her five yuan.
Previously, it was always that man who was watching over her, and she never had a chance to show her abilities.
Now that the man is gone, she can finally be of help. She absolutely cannot let this woman get out of bed now.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be right for her to take five yuan from someone for nothing.
"Auntie, I really don't need your help. I'd like to go out for a bit. Please don't stay here in front of me." Su Li didn't know that Ishihara had instructed this old woman to keep an eye on her. She thought the old woman was just being helpful, so she politely declined.
"Comrade, just tell me, what do you need? I'll help you, old woman."
Su Li was getting annoyed. She was worried that Ishihara would be back soon, and it wouldn't be so easy for her to leave again.
So at that moment, she didn't bother arguing with the old woman and simply threw off the covers. Ignoring the old woman's attempts to stop her, she got out of bed.
Seeing that she was about to leave, the old woman quickly stepped forward and grabbed her arm; "Young lady, do you need to go to the toilet? I'll go with you!"
Su Li pushed her hand away, saying, "I don't want to go to the toilet. I want to be discharged. Please don't stop me here."
When the old woman heard that she wanted to be discharged from the hospital, she became even more determined to stop her. This woman had really lost her mind; she wanted to leave the hospital without even waiting for her husband to come back.
“Your man told me that you can’t leave until he comes back.”
Su Li couldn't take it anymore and yelled at the old woman, "He's not my man, I don't know him, get out of here, I want to go home."
The old woman muttered softly, "What a waste of such a pretty face. Her brain really doesn't work well. No wonder your husband doesn't trust her."
After venting her frustrations, she couldn't let him leave. Otherwise, it would be too unfair to him if he lost such a beautiful wife while she had taken five yuan from him.
"Comrade, listen to this old woman, wait for your husband to come back before you leave. Otherwise, he'll be so worried when he gets back!"
Su Li turned to the side, ignoring her, and walked out of the ward.
Unexpectedly, the old woman suddenly said to her daughter-in-law by the bedside, "Xiuying, quick, come and help me stop her. She's mentally unstable and not thinking straight. If she runs away, her husband will probably be worried to death."
The woman named Xiuying rushed over when she heard her mother-in-law's call.
The two of them grabbed Su Li's arms, one on each side. Su Li hadn't eaten properly for two days, and she had also been given medicine by Ishihara.
This left her unable to muster any strength.
She was so angry that she yelled, "What do you want to do? Let me go!"
"Go back to bed and don't run around, then we'll let you go."
Seeing that she couldn't break free, Su Li nodded.
"I'm going to bed now, you guys let go first."
The two men thought she had regained her senses, so they let go of her.
The moment they let go, Su Li ran outside.
The old woman and her daughter-in-law hurriedly chased after them.
But when they chased after them, they found that there wasn't a soul in sight at the hospital entrance.
At this moment, Ishihara had already prepared the porridge. Just as he reached the door of the ward, he saw the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law rushing towards him.
The old woman, panting heavily, said, "Your wife just ran away; we couldn't catch her."
Upon hearing this, Ishihara dropped the porridge in his hand to the ground.
He looked at the two of them coldly: "Where did she run off to?"
The old woman pointed outside, about to say that she clearly saw her run outside, but when she chased after her, she couldn't see her.
Before she could even speak, Ishihara had already run off.
He ran to the hospital and found himself at one of two intersections, but no one was there.
He grabbed a passerby and said, "Comrade, have you seen a very beautiful woman walk by this way?"
The man looked at him with a puzzled expression: "I didn't see anyone. I've been standing here for ages and haven't seen a single person."
