Later that evening, as the afterglow of the setting sun faded into the horizon, Chuchu finally stepped out of the hospital gate, her face tired but with a hint of relief. The smell of disinfectant and the endless wait in the hospital had made her a little uneasy, but now, she just wanted to quickly return to her little home and relax.
She walked straight towards her apartment, and along the way the street lights began to flicker, ushering in the night.
After returning home, Chuchu kicked off her shoes and collapsed on the soft sofa. She picked up her phone, skillfully opened the food delivery app, and ordered her favorite pizza, hoping to use delicious food to comfort the fatigue of the day.
While waiting for her pizza, Chuchu began browsing her phone, reading various news and information, occasionally laughing out loud at the funny skits on the short video platform. These moments, simple yet heartwarming, were a rare little blessing in her busy life.
Just as she was immersed in her phone, a flash of light suddenly appeared in the living room, and the unicorn, Bai Hao, appeared silently in front of her. Chu Chu was frightened by this sudden "surprise" and shuddered violently, her eyes almost rolling up to the sky: "Hey, Bai Hao, can you please not be so elusive all the time? Are you trying to scare me to death? My little heart can't stand you tossing me like that!"
Bai Hao blinked his innocent eyes, seeming a little puzzled by Chuchu's reaction. "But, Lingjun, you are a bird of the same name. How can you detect any movement within a radius of fifty miles without your keen nose?"
Chu Chu heard this and sat up straight. She sniffed carefully and found nothing unusual. "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. What on earth do you want to talk to me about?"
Bai Hao then said seriously, "I'm here to report on Su Rong's progress. This human is truly gifted and willing to work hard. Given time, he will surely become an outstanding cultivator. Furthermore, I've already told him, as you instructed, that you are his true master. I'm merely teaching him on his behalf."
Chuchu hummed softly, seemingly nonchalant, but in her heart she was pleased with Su Rong's progress. After all, that was Rong Lin's reincarnation of his soul, so it was definitely not something that could be easily manipulated.
"How does he react to this?" Chu Chu asked calmly.
"He was very happy after hearing that and practiced even harder. He could recite the spell so fluently that he could even recite it backwards." Bai Hao's tone was full of praise.
After hearing this, Chuchu curled up the corners of her mouth into a barely perceptible smile and nodded with satisfaction. "Very good, you continue to teach him well and help him become a true cultivator as soon as possible. I have a magic weapon here that can help you improve your skills. Once you successfully complete the task, I will give it to you."
Bai Hao's eyes lit up upon hearing this, his excitement evident. "Thank you, Lord Ling! I will do my best to live up to your expectations. I will now take my leave."
Chuchu nodded again, and Bai Hao's figure gradually became blurred in the living room and finally disappeared.
After finishing these tasks, Chuchu sent a message to her friends Song Nuan and Zhu Zhu, informing them that Zhao Qing had been transferred to another hospital. Then, she picked up the phone and adjusted the company's operations to ensure everything would run smoothly during her break.
After doing all this, Chuchu finally breathed a sigh of relief, her body completely relaxed, and sleepiness washed over her like a tide. She had been truly exhausted these past few days, with the constant stream of things happening at the hospital leaving her with little to no rest. Now, she just wanted to get a good night's sleep and wake up tomorrow to another new day filled with hope.
As her consciousness gradually faded, Chuchu fell into a dream. In her dream, she seemed to be back in that carefree forest, happily playing with her friends...
Song Nuan and Zhu Zhu arrived at the hospital together, their hearts heavy with worry, their pace quickening until they saw Zhao Qing lying on the hospital bed. In that moment, all their emotions melted into tears, and the three of them hugged each other tightly, as if to channel their strength into one another. The only sound in the ward was their sobs, each tear carrying a pang of heartache and sympathy for Zhao Qing's plight.
Ever since that video went viral on the Internet, almost everyone who clicked on it felt extremely sympathetic towards Zhao Qing's experience.
Zhu Zhu's tears kept falling like beads from a broken string. She cried and said, "She's so scary, just like a lunatic! Fortunately, you recorded the video, Xiaoqing. You are really brave and smart. You knew to leave evidence."
Zhao Qing forced a smile and gently wiped away Zhu Zhu's tears with a tissue. "Actually, there's something I've been wanting to tell you. I didn't record this video. There were no surveillance cameras in the ward, so I don't know who recorded it. I was completely dazed at the time and didn't have time to think about it."
Song Nuan tried hard to recall every detail in the video, her brow furrowed. "Indeed, judging by the angle of the video, it looks like it was filmed from a window, and you were standing face to face with her, so her every move was clearly recorded. The whole thing does seem a bit strange."
A hint of doubt flashed across Zhu Zhu's eyes. "Didn't she keep saying there were ghosts in the video? Xiaoqing, do you think there really was a god helping you in secret?"
Zhao Qing smiled and shook her head, but there was a hint of bitterness in her smile: "I think, if there really is a god, that god might be Chuchu. Not long after I was transferred to the hospital, she showed up. She said that my father gave her the address, but I asked my father later, and he said that no one had asked him."
Song Nuan nodded upon hearing this and said thoughtfully, "Come to think of it, ever since I met Chu Chu, I feel like my luck has improved a lot. It's like there's some mysterious power blessing us in secret."
Zhu Zhu immediately agreed, "Yes, yes, yes. Last time I stayed at her apartment, I dreamed of my friend! She said it was a coincidence and that I was overthinking it. But now that I think about it, it's not just a coincidence. It must be Chuchu who is secretly helping us."
Song Nuan's eyes suddenly lit up, as if ignited by some mysterious power: "If that's the case, then we're incredibly lucky! We actually managed to encounter such a 'god'!"
Zhao Qing took a deep breath and turned serious. "Although it sounds unbelievable, I think we can secretly observe Chuchu and see if she behaves in any unusual way. Maybe we can find some clues."
Song Nuan nodded, and suddenly remembered something else: "Oh, right, one time she got from her villa to the hospital in just ten minutes! She even said she drove because her car was fast. I didn't think much of it at the time, but now I think about it, it takes at least an hour to drive from her villa to the hospital where I used to stay! How could she get there so quickly?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhu couldn't help but gasp in surprise: "Yeah, this is too fast! Did she really fly here?"
