The two said goodnight to each other and then went back to their respective rooms.
Ye Wenyu didn't mention whether Lin Tingxuan was mentally ill or not. She didn't mention it because she didn't want to leave his side right now, so she didn't want to offend him. Lin Tingfeng didn't mention it because some things weren't ready to be discussed openly yet.
The crisis brought about by Lin Tingxuan was thus resolved.
Next, Ye Wenyu enrolled in a driving school and started going to the driving school for training every weekend. Sometimes when she was lazy and didn't want to go, Lin Tingfeng would always take time out of his busy schedule to personally drive her to the driving school.
Furthermore, her unexpected encounter at the West Bus Station greatly impacted Ye Wenyu, making her realize that life is full of dangers, and a single misstep could lead to a disastrous fall from grace. Therefore, she became even more dedicated to her studies than before, spending most of her time diligently learning each day. Lin Tingfeng noticed this change and was initially pleased, but after that, he understood that her motivation for studying stemmed from a long and arduous struggle.
In her previous life, Ye Wenyu was studying hard during the second semester of her freshman year when she was about to take her final exams. In this life, Ye Wenyu is working hard during the second semester of her freshman year when she is about to take her final exams.
She found three jobs: two tutoring jobs and one restaurant waitress job. Last time, after a violent storm, the entire city of S was flooded. Ye Wenyu waded through the floodwaters to go to her tutoring class, only to have her foot pierced by a thumbtack. If Jiang Zhiming hadn't carried her to the hospital, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Now that her leg injury has almost healed, she has resumed her previous work and school life. Jiang Zhiming helped her get a poverty subsidy again, which reduced her burden by half. She is very grateful to him, but she cannot relax because she still has to repay a debt of 50,000 yuan at the end of the year. Therefore, she is still working. Every day, she is either working or on her way to work.
However, she feels much more relaxed now than before, because the burden on her shoulders has been reduced by half, and she is very content.
Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate. In June, the plum rain season arrived in the south, bringing either torrential downpours or continuous drizzle. It rained every day, and a WeChat public account joked that "no pair of underwear could leave the south dry." Every day when Ye Wenyu returned to her dormitory, her clothes, shoes, and socks were all soaked. As time went on, one day she developed a high fever.
Although her body was experiencing extreme hot and cold sensations, and she was extremely sensitive to the cold, she didn't seem to have a cold; she had neither a runny nose nor a cough. Ye Wenyu thought it was alright and she couldn't miss her job as a waitress at the restaurant today, so she stubbornly went to work.
The restaurant where she worked was a five-star hotel. When Ye Wenyu arrived at the hotel, she changed into a cheongsam as her work uniform and began to serve guests. However, she felt increasingly unwell, dizzy, and nauseous. She kept trying to hold on, thinking that it was nothing serious. As she hurriedly carried a dish to a table, her vision suddenly went black, and then with a "bang," she lost consciousness.
When she woke up, she was in a hospital room with white sheets. She was wearing a light blue striped hospital gown. Ye Wenyu was puzzled, thinking that she was a waitress at a restaurant. She remembered that the last dish she served was a large plate of chopped chili fish head, which was the main dish of that table. After that, she didn't know what happened.
While Ye Wenyu was still standing there in a daze, she saw the door being gently pushed open and a tall, strong figure walking in. When Ye Wenyu looked up, she was surprised to see that it was Lin Tingfeng!
She immediately reacted as if she had seen a ghost in broad daylight, hiding under the sheets. Her heart was pounding wildly, her chest pounding like a deer's. Was the world really that small? How come she always seemed to run into Lin Tingfeng?
He kept turning and trying to escape, but it was as if he was waiting at every turn.
Lin Tingfeng smiled, walked over to her bedside and sat down, saying gently to her, "Why are you acting like a child, thinking that you can't see me if you cover yourself up?" He seemed to be in a good mood.
Ye Wenyu stood there, too terrified to move. His voice was as melodious as a midnight radio broadcast—warm, deep, and magnetic. Why was he speaking to her in such a familiar tone? Was this her reborn life, or the entangled past life? She was almost delirious. Under the sheets, she pinched her thigh hard. A sharp pain shot through her, causing her to wince and gasp. It hurt so much; it couldn't be a dream. Then why was he the one who saved her? Why were they both at the hospital?
She only had a slight fever, but how did it get so bad that she fainted?
What exactly happened? Through the white blanket, she could see him sitting there, a shadowy black figure, as burly as a bear. In this life, ever since she drove for him to earn money and got caught by the traffic police (she didn't have a driver's license), the two of them had a falling out after being bailed out of the station by a lawyer, and they hadn't seen each other since.
Unexpectedly, she fainted while working at the restaurant today, and when she woke up, she saw him again.
What exactly happened in between?
It's as if no matter how big the world is, they'll always meet again.
Determined to find out the whole story, Ye Wenyu gently peeked out from under the covers. Lin Tingfeng saw her long, glossy black hair and her fair face. She was completely covered by the blanket, with only a small part of her face showing, like a caterpillar, which was exceptionally cute. He couldn't help but smile gently.
Ever since I met her, it's as if my heart is tied to a knot by her little hand. Whenever I think of her, my heart is stirred, and I can't forget her no matter what.
I am overjoyed to see you again today.
But looking at her bewildered eyes, I couldn't help but smile.
As if he could read minds, he slowly explained to Ye Wenyu, "You fainted while working at the restaurant, and I happened to be eating there. I heard that a waitress had fainted and needed to be rushed to the hospital. I happened to pass by and saw that it was you. I told them we knew each other, and they let me take you to the hospital."
I see.
Ye Wenyu glanced at Lin Tingfeng, who was smiling at her. Ye Wenyu's face flushed, and she shrank further into the quilt. She thought it was strange; every time she was in trouble, he was always the first to appear. Was it all fate?
Was she still wearing her mask? The sudden thought flashed through her mind like a summer lightning bolt. Ye Wenyu immediately reached out and touched her mask in a panic, only to find that it was still there, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing her subtle movements, Lin Tingfeng assumed she was concerned about her appearance and afraid he would be unhappy if he saw her birthmark. He smiled and said, "We've already met, so it doesn't matter whether you wear a mask or not."
Ye Wenyu felt a burning sensation in her neck and shoulders.
