Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar faces around him, Luo Fei suddenly realized something and muttered to himself, "This is... my classroom from my senior year of high school?"
"I... I've been reborn?"
Realizing he had been reborn, Luo Fei suddenly stood up and dashed toward the classroom door.
“If I went back 30 years, my sister’s illness wouldn’t have flared up yet. I need to go see her right away.”
The teacher on the podium never expected Luo Fei to be so bold as to disregard classroom discipline.
"Luo Fei, you stop right there!" the teacher shouted, pointing at Luo Fei. "Where are you going?"
Luo Fei stopped and looked at the middle-aged female teacher on the podium. He said apologetically, "Teacher Huang, I'm so sorry, something happened at home and I have to go back right away."
Upon hearing this, Teacher Huang questioned, "What happened in your family? How come I didn't know?"
Luo Fei said, "Teacher Huang, my sister is sick, I have to go see her right away."
Hearing Luo Fei say this, Teacher Huang's expression softened, but her tone remained cold: "You ran off without asking for leave or giving a report. Is that acceptable?"
"I'm so sorry, teacher." After saying that, Luo Fei quickly ran out of the classroom.
Luo Fei is an orphan who was adopted by a couple who were unable to have children when he was five years old. He was also adopted along with an older sister named Rosie, who was three months older than him.
When the two were in junior high school, their adoptive parents tragically died in a plane crash, and their family property was seized by their adoptive parents' relatives, forcing the siblings to leave their home.
Rosie, the older sister, is much more mature than Luo Fei. She knew how to take care of her younger brother from a very young age. After her adoptive parents passed away, Rosie dropped out of school to work and earn tuition and living expenses for her brother.
Although life was tough, my younger brother was sensible and did well in his studies, occasionally earning scholarships from the school.
But the good times didn't last long. Just after Luo Fei was admitted to university, Luo Xi fainted during a night shift.
After being taken to the hospital by his colleagues, he was diagnosed with stomach cancer due to overwork.
Moreover, because it was discovered too late, it had already reached a late stage.
To avoid burdening her sensible younger brother, Rosie chose to forgo treatment and concealed her illness from him. She passed away shortly afterward.
This caused Luo Fei a lifelong regret. Even though he later became an outstanding talent of the new era due to his talent, his sister's death became a wound in Luo Fei's heart that could never heal.
Even when he died tragically at the hands of the alien race in his final battle, he still could not find peace.
After leaving the campus, Luo Fei went straight to Luo Xi's workplace.
At this time, Rosie was still working at the courier company, sorting packages.
"Sister!" When Luo Fei saw Rosie, he couldn't suppress his longing and shouted as he ran towards her, hugging her tightly.
Suddenly being hugged, Rosie turned around quickly after hearing her younger brother's voice and asked Luo Fei, "Xiao Fei, why aren't you at school? What are you doing here?"
Faced with his sister's questioning, Luo Fei recited the lines he had prepared on the way.
"Sis, I was dozing off at school and dreamt that you were sick, so I rushed over to find you."
"Silly boy, I'm perfectly fine," Rosie chuckled. "You should go to school and stop wandering around outside."
Luo Fei shook his head and said, "No, sister, I'm worried about you. Why don't you come to the hospital with me for a check-up?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Rosie scolded. "Dreams are all fake. You should go back to school. You're in your final year of high school now. You can't fall behind in your studies. Besides, I'm perfectly fine. What could possibly happen to me?"
At this moment, Rosie's colleague reminded her, "Xiaoxi, you should really get yourself checked out. You've fainted several times at work in the past two months. You should listen to your brother and go to the hospital for a checkup."
At this time, Rosie had already been diagnosed with stomach cancer, but she was too busy making a living to realize it and thought that she had fainted because she was too tired.
"Sister, please, please come to the hospital with me for a checkup." Luo Fei was already in tears, pleading, "Just so I can focus on my studies at school, okay?"
"That's right, Xiaoqian. Look how much your brother cares about you. You should go to the hospital for a check-up. Just think of it as taking a day off to rest at home." Her colleague also advised the eighteen-year-old girl.
Rosie hesitated for a while, but seeing that she couldn't persuade her younger brother Luo Fei, and with the constant persuasion from her colleagues, she had no choice but to let Luo Fei wait there, while she went to ask her supervisor for half a day off.
When Rosie walked out of the dimly lit workshop, Luo Fei could clearly and directly feel that his sister's face had turned visibly pale. For a moment, he felt a lump in his throat and couldn't say a word.
"You brat, what are you daydreaming about all day! You should be studying properly at school, not dozing off in the classroom. Just wait until we get back, I'll teach you a lesson..."
The siblings walked along the roadside, with Rosie constantly muttering about Luo Fei's mistake of skipping school.
Luo Fei thoroughly enjoyed this long-lost and hard-won nagging, quietly hugging his sister's arm and snuggling against her like a child who had found his mother.
In the office of the chief physician of the oncology department at the Fifth People's Hospital of X City, Luo Fei looked nervously at the old doctor sitting opposite him.
The doctor held the test report, looked at Rosie, then at Luo Fei, sighed, and placed the report on the table. He remarked, "This shouldn't be the first time you've had this condition. Why didn't you come to the hospital for a checkup sooner? And why didn't your parents come?"
"Doctor, could you tell me about my sister's condition first?" Luo Fei asked anxiously.
Rosie was also completely bewildered by what the doctor said.
The doctor sighed again and said, "Your sister is currently in the late stage of stomach cancer, and her condition is very serious. I suggest that she be admitted to the hospital immediately for effective treatment."
"What?" Rosie exclaimed upon hearing the doctor's words, instantly sitting up in her chair and staring at the elderly doctor opposite her in disbelief. "Doctor, you mean I... I have cancer?"
The doctor nodded gravely and explained, "Your condition is due to chronic overwork and years of irregular meals and rest, leading to stomach cancer. It's already in its late stages, so you need to cooperate with the hospital for effective treatment as soon as possible, otherwise..."
The doctor didn't say anything more; in this situation, it was best not to say anything more.
Rosie felt a sudden dizziness, and then her vision went black and she fainted.
