Chapter 206 225. Wrong Weather
When the sky was just getting light, Qi Yanxin came back from outside with frost all over his body.
After making up her mind, she went out at night and went to a familiar merchant to exchange these "junk" at the bottom of the box for money. She also went to a vendor who specialized in reselling clinic number plates and bought this morning's medical consultation number at a high price.
On the way home, Qi Yanxin was a little hesitant when passing by a breakfast shop, but then he thought that Xu Zhi probably couldn't eat it in his current condition, so he gave up.
She almost never bought breakfast outside because it was too expensive, but the food at home was not suitable for patients. After thinking about it, Qi Yanxin decided to take Xu Zhi to see the doctor and buy some new ingredients home.
Before going home, she discussed with Ye Ran's father Ye Cheng before he went to work to get a ride this morning so that she could take Xu Zhi to the clinic. After all, she had no problem walking by herself, but it would be a bit difficult to take Xu Zhi, who had limited mobility.
After making all the preparations, Qi Yanxin returned home and woke up Xu Zhi.
Xu Zhi was awakened the moment the woman's hand touched her shoulder. After waking up, her brain went blank for two seconds before she realized where she was.
"Did it scare you?"
The woman withdrew her hand and explained, "You didn't respond when I called you just now."
"It's okay." Xu Zhi's voice was still weak and powerless, and her eyes were a little dim, as if she couldn't focus. She reluctantly turned her head to look at Qi Yanxin and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Your condition isn't good. Your fever hasn't subsided. Don't sleep yet. I'll take you to see a doctor now."
As the woman spoke, she walked over to Xu Zhi. Seeing that she had no intention of resisting, she lifted the quilt and helped Xu Zhi up. She let her lean against the head of the bed and planned to wash her face and then take her out.
Xu Zhi never thought that one day she would once again experience this feeling of being critically ill in the hospital and needing a nurse to help her with everything. The only difference was that the person in front of her was not a nurse, but a "kind-hearted person" who had nothing to do with her.
This made Xu Zhi feel a little awkward. When the other person wrung out the towel and was about to wipe her face, she tried to reach out and take it from him. However, her hand holding the towel kept shaking, as if she would lose her strength and let the towel slip from her hand in the next moment.
Seeing this, the woman reluctantly took the towel back and carefully wiped Xu Zhi's face: "Don't be so stubborn, no one else can see it."
After wiping her face, she saw Xu Zhi was still a little dazed, with an expression of "what happened". She inexplicably felt that the girl at this moment was a bit like a distressed kitten that was caught and rubbed hard, and looked unbelievable, which was quite cute.
In fact, Xu Zhi was really a little overwhelmed. She was so helpless that she couldn't even protect a towel. What else could she do?!
Xu Zhi subconsciously wanted to pick up the game console and complain to the narrator about being forced to wash his face, but he was stunned the next moment.
Oh yeah, no more game consoles.
The girl's gray eyes drooped, and the feeling of being about to explode disappeared, leaving only a sad gentleness.
The woman could feel her mood suddenly drop, but she thought it was just Xu Zhi's pride being hurt. After a moment's thought, she consoled him, "The doctor you saw today is very good. He will definitely help you recover as soon as possible."
Xu Zhi's body was too badly damaged, and he couldn't stand up even with the woman's support, so she was carried out of the house. This made Xu Zhi, who was originally immersed in sadness, a little out of it.
She's an adult!
The girl quietly clenched her hands into weak fists. Even though she knew no one here knew her, she still felt awkward.
This is fundamentally different from the time when she was lazy and still sat in a wheelchair even after she recovered!
What made her even more upset was that even after a night's rest, her health did not improve. Even when she opened her eyes, everything in front of her was blurry and she couldn't see anything clearly, let alone the surrounding environment. She couldn't even see Qi Yanxin's face clearly.
Perhaps it was some kind of sequelae, but this vagueness made her feel very insecure, as if everything around her was fake.
Maybe she didn't wake up at all and was still in a dream.
Xu Zhi squeezed her palms gently again to suppress the unrealistic fear. Her brain was still throbbing with pain. Ever since the [light] returned to her body, her mood swings had increased a lot more than before.
When the woman carried her out of the room, it was already dawn outside. Xu Zhi squinted his eyes because of the gentle sunlight and almost shed tears.
The sunlight shines into the dark and narrow slums, giving the "rats" living there a moment to breathe.
“It didn’t rain today.”
A strange girl's voice came from the side, her tone full of undisguised joy and excitement.
"Yes, it's been half a month since the last sunny day."
Then came the man's voice, sounding quite calm. Seeing Qi Yanxin, he took the initiative to greet her: "Xiao Qi, is this your sister?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhi looked in the man's direction in a daze, but he could only see a blurry tall figure and an equally blurry little girl next to him.
The feeling of impaired vision is really bad. When the vision is blurred, it seems that the hearing has decreased. Xu Zhi did not speak rashly, but just leaned weakly on Qi Yanxin and pretended to be confused.
Even though his eyesight was terrible, Xu Zhi did not give up observing his surroundings. After all, he was not blind and could still see some things.
For example, she could see that there were no tall buildings here. There were only low bungalows all around, with a mess of colors and shapes. It seemed that there was no planning when they were built, which led to the current chaos.
Even in the morning the air quality here is very poor, with a smell of mechanical industrial pollution and the constant rumbling of machines making it impossible to calm down. In any case, this is not a good living area.
Qi Yanxin and Ye Cheng didn't exchange too many pleasantries. Time is precious, especially on a rare sunny day, time is even more precious.
"Dad, the weather forecast clearly didn't say it would be sunny today?" Ye Ran's puzzled voice came from the front seat as they got in the car.
Ye Cheng's car was bought from a scrap market and it was an unknown number of times. The windows were covered with a very old dark anti-peep film, which made it even harder for Xu Zhi to see the outside world, so he gave up the idea of observing his surroundings.
"Indeed, something might have happened."
These two short sentences attracted Xu Zhi's attention.
If the weather forecast is inaccurate, does that mean something bad has happened?
She didn't hide her curiosity, and seeing her curiosity, Qi Yanxin took the initiative to ask, "The last time the weather forecast was inaccurate was eight years ago, right?"
Ye Cheng, who was driving, hummed, "When Guangmingyuan announced the evacuation of the bottom floor."
