Su Jinyue nodded and noticed that something was wrong with the round-faced girl next to her. She turned around and saw that her face was pale and her forehead was covered with cold sweat. "What's wrong with you?"
"She was scared," Lin Muzhu said. "During the last anatomy class, the teacher asked her and another classmate to move a cadaver, and she got scared. She's fine normally, but she becomes like this during anatomy class."
"Qian Moli, if you're afraid, you should change your major." Ding Sian advised. In fact, she was also afraid, but she was much better than Qian Moli.
"I won't!" Although Qian Moli was trembling all over, she still gritted her teeth and said firmly.
"I really don't understand why you insist on doing this." Lin Muzhu and Ding Si'an shook their heads in confusion. Qian Moli studied harder than anyone else. She never initiated conversation and devoted all her energy to her books. They suspected she would become stupid if she continued like this.
"I want to be a doctor, I must become a doctor!" Qian Moli said with determination.
"Can you tell us why?" Su Jinyue asked. Qian Moli's persistence made her curious.
Qian Moli was silent for a moment, then spoke, "I want to save my brother." She and her brother were twins. When they were in elementary school, he and she were walking home from school together when a car, out of control, hurtled toward them. Just before it hit them, he pushed her out of the way, and he's been in a vegetative state ever since. Ten years have passed, and she's spent every day blaming herself. She hopes she can become a doctor and help him wake up.
"What happened to your brother?" Ding Si'an asked. Although she had known Qian Moli for almost three months, she rarely spoke to her. In her eyes, Qian Moli was a weirdo. This was also the reason why others didn't like sitting with her.
"He became a vegetable in order to save me." Qian Moli's eyes were filled with deep remorse and hatred. She hated herself for not pushing her brother away first, so that she wouldn't have to endure so many years of pain.
"Can we go see him?" Lin Muzhu asked. She wanted to go see Qian Moli's brother and see if there was anything she could do to help Qian Moli.
Qian Moli shook her head. "No, thank you for your kindness." Ten years ago, the doctor had told them that her brother might have to live like this for the rest of his life. But she really didn't give up!
Su Jinyue thought for a moment, then reached into her bag and pulled out a porcelain bottle, handing it to Qian Moli. "Here's a pill, a miraculous doctor gave it to me. If you believe in it, take it. If not, forget it." This pill was a Grade 1 Qinglian Pill she had refined herself, the main ingredient being thousand-year-old green lotus seeds. These seeds had the power to bring the dead back to life, bringing a person back to life as long as they were still breathing. However, she didn't have many of them, so she only refined twelve Qinglian Pills. Now it was up to Qian Moli to decide. If she refused, she wouldn't force it on her. After all, she had already given her the opportunity to choose.
Qian Moli looked at the porcelain vase in Su Jinyue's hand and reached out to take it, but stopped mid-stretch. "But I don't have anything to exchange with you." Right now, if there was even a glimmer of hope to save her brother, she wouldn't let it go. But she didn't want to take Su Jinyue's things for nothing, especially something so precious. She believed Su Jinyue had no reason to lie to her; after all, she had nothing to lie to.
"I don't need your things." Su Jinyue smiled lightly. The reason she gave her this pill was because of her dedication to her brother and her desire to save him.
Qian Moli hesitated for a moment, then reached out to take the porcelain bottle, "Thank you! I will repay you." As long as her brother can wake up, she is willing to do anything for Su Jinyue, even at the cost of her life.
"This pill was given to me by someone else. I just gave it to someone who needed it more," Su Jinyue said. Since she had decided to give it to him, she hadn't thought about asking for anything in return.
Qian Moli gave Su Jinyue a grateful smile. Even if Su Jinyue didn't want her to repay her, she would keep this kindness in her heart and return it to her when she needed it one day.
Perhaps because she had hope in her heart, Qian Moli found that when she thought about the anatomy class, she was no longer as scared as before.
"Su Jinyue, have you really met a miracle doctor? Does he look like a Taoist immortal?" Ding Si'an asked curiously. She didn't think Su Jinyue would joke about such a thing.
"Yes!" Su Jinyue smiled and nodded. Almost everyone in the Medical Valley was a miracle doctor.
After school, Qian Moli rushed home. She just wanted to feed the pill to her brother as soon as possible.
Walking into the dilapidated courtyard, Qian Moli felt a sense of oppression again. Over the years, the family had spent almost everything they had so that their brother could wake up.
"Squeak!" The door of the house was pushed open.
The middle-aged woman who was busy doing handicrafts in the room stopped what she was doing, turned around, and saw Qian Moli. Her face immediately turned gloomy, "Why did you come back?!" She knew that her daughter could not be blamed for what happened to her son, but she just hated why it was her son who got into trouble instead of her.
Qian Moli looked at her mother with guilt, "Mom, I've found a way to save my brother." For years, her mother had been doing sewing and handicrafts at home for her brother, while her father had been working day and night outside. Her parents had originally wanted her to drop out of school and find a job, but she persevered and worked hard to get a scholarship, which finally persuaded them to let her continue her studies.
"What method?" Jiang Meifeng asked excitedly. She had been waiting for ten years. During these ten years, she had tried countless methods, whether it was hospitals or superstition, but her son still showed no signs of waking up.
"Someone gave me a pill and said it could wake my brother up." Qian Moli took out the porcelain bottle from her pocket.
Seeing the porcelain bottle in Qian Moli's hand, Jiang Meifeng's face became even gloomier. She stood up, rushed to Qian Moli, snatched the porcelain bottle from her hand, and threw it to the ground, "Do you want your brother to die?" In order to save her son, she had been deceived countless times by those so-called miracle doctors, but her son still did not wake up, and he almost lost his life several times.
Qian Moli saw her mother throw away the porcelain bottle and hurriedly went to pick it up anxiously, but the porcelain bottle had been broken and she didn't know where the pill had gone. She could only lie on the ground and slowly search. She didn't want to give up, even if there was only a slight chance.
Jiang Meifeng looked at Qian Moli lying on the ground, sighed, and returned to the table to sit down and continue her handicraft. She knew her behavior was a bit extreme, but she really couldn't believe in those so-called elixirs anymore. Her son really couldn't stand it anymore.
