Chapter 357 Back to Reality (8) - Illness in Doubt
After listening to what the other party said, Ning Shu didn't believe it at all; it was just too ridiculous.
Li Dong seemed to have anticipated this situation, and suddenly stood up and walked towards the door.
Ning Shu saw him standing at the door saying something to someone outside, and then she saw Li Dong bring someone in.
You may not believe what I say, but you should believe what he says.
Ning Shu stared wide-eyed at the person who came in behind her—it was him, An Ran.
He gave her clues in the game, telling her what to do to leave the game.
...
After leaving the basement, Ning Shu wandered the streets like a lost soul, with Li Dong and An Ran's words constantly echoing in her mind.
On the sun-drenched street, Ning Shu felt not warmth, but cold.
The cold seeped into her very bones.
She thought that after leaving the game, she would return to a normal life, but she did not expect that the situation she faced would be more complicated.
We also need to determine who is real and who is fake before we can continue.
Suddenly a roaring sound came from her side, and then many flying vehicles appeared around her.
One of the aircraft stopped in front of her, and a tall, dignified man stepped out.
This scene attracted the attention of many people nearby.
Si Zhong stepped forward and examined her for a while. After confirming that she was not injured, his previously gloomy expression finally softened.
"Where did you go? Were you frightened?" Si Zhong asked.
Ning Shu shook her head, indicating that she was fine, but her pale face did not look like she was alright in Si Zhong's eyes.
He didn't dwell on the issue. He took her back first, arranged for a doctor to examine her, and arranged for a psychologist to provide counseling.
Ning Shu felt he was making a mountain out of a molehill and quickly explained that she was fine.
Si Zhong had no choice but to give up, only instructing her not to wander around outside carelessly in the future.
Ning Shu nodded absentmindedly in agreement, and life seemed to return to its previous state.
But she knew that some things had changed, such as her state of mind.
Every time Si Zhong left her satisfied, she longed to ask him about the truth of this world.
But she remembered Li Dong's instructions not to alert the enemy.
Today, she was distracted again, and the man on top of her was somewhat dissatisfied. After finishing hastily, he complained, "What's wrong with you? You haven't been in the mood these past few days."
Looking at Si Zhong's unsatisfied face, Ning Shu tentatively asked, "You go out every day, what do you do there?"
Si Zhong didn't expect Ning Shu to care about this. Isn't it a bit odd to focus on this at this time?
He was both amused and exasperated: "Of course I have to go to work, otherwise how can I afford to support you, my little pig?"
As he spoke, he reached out and tapped Ning Shu's nose, then tried to kiss her lips.
Ning Shu stopped him: "What kind of work is it exactly?"
Si Zhong fell silent, staring at Ning Shu as if she had asked a question she shouldn't have.
Ning Shu was a little nervous; she wondered if Si Zhong would answer her.
As a result, she was disappointed.
Because he only replied with one sentence: "You wouldn't understand even if I told you, okay? Let's continue~"
Si Zhong covered it up again...
At this moment, Ning Shu inexplicably felt that what Li Dong said was true, and that the man beside her might really have a problem.
Ever since meeting Ji Shi and his group, Ning Shu has been having nightmares, and the scenes in her dreams are all fragmented.
In her dream, she remembered that she had someone she liked very much, someone she seemed to have liked for many years, but she couldn't see that person's face clearly in her dream.
There's only one thing she's certain of: that person isn't her current man.
She dreamt that every time she was about to be with the person she liked, an obstacle would suddenly appear, forcibly separating them.
Confused and perplexed, her mind was filled with questions: Why? What was stopping them?
The scene shifts, and she sees herself with the man she's with now, and their relationship is quite strange.
In their dreams, they weren't as loving and happy as they are now; there was always a strange, indescribable feeling about them.
Because he always stared at her intently, while her gaze always darted away.
The scene changed again, and she found herself trapped in a place, searching for an exit.
Every time she thought she was about to successfully leave, the man would inexplicably appear in front of her and stop her from leaving.
Even more horrifying was what happened next: she saw the man actually stab her in the lower abdomen with a knife.
She stared at the other person in shock, then collapsed...
"Aaaaaah!"
Ning Shu was startled awake, as was the man sleeping soundly beside her.
"Ah Ning, what's wrong?" Si Zhong asked, not quite fully awake, and his arm naturally wrapped around her.
"I...I had a nightmare."
Seeing that Ning Shu was very scared, Si Zhong hugged her tighter and comforted her, "It's okay, I'm here, no one can hurt you."
Ning Shu's heart pounded, thinking: What if you're the one who hurt me?
Because Ning Shu has been having nightmares these past few days, and Si Zhong is unable to stay with her, he can only arrange for someone to accompany her to see a doctor.
Ning Shu complained that he was so busy that he didn't even have time to accompany her to the doctor. The man didn't argue, but directly apologized and accepted the punishment.
Ning Shu saw Dr. Zhang Li again. Dr. Zhang talked to her for a long time and finally came to the conclusion that she was just frightened.
She was prescribed some sleep aids and told to take them for a while and see how they went. Ning Shu then left to get the medicine.
Not long after she left, she realized she had forgotten to ask something, so she sent Xia to get the medicine and went back.
She entered the spacious consultation room but did not find Dr. Zhang. Instead, she heard her voice coming from her office, so she went over there.
Just as I was about to knock on the door, I realized it wasn't closed properly, it was ajar. Then I heard Dr. Zhang seemingly talking on the phone with someone.
She wanted to wait until they finished talking before knocking and going in, but the more she listened, the more she realized something was wrong; the doctor and the other person were actually discussing her condition.
“Mr. Si, Miss Ning’s memories are very confused… This won’t work; it’s a drawback of preserving them…”
Ning Shu realized that there were some things she couldn't hear clearly. She tried to listen carefully, but they finished talking very quickly.
She was afraid of being discovered, so she left in a hurry.
After leaving, her heart was pounding, and she was glad that Dr. Zhang's consultation room was big enough.
The bodyguard waited at the door of the consultation room and had no idea what she had overheard at Dr. Zhang's office.
Because of today's discovery, she sat in the clinic's lounge area for a long time, pondering what her next step should be.
In the evening, Si Zhong returned and asked her about her doctor's visit that day.
She casually replied with a few words, pretending to be very curious, and flirted with Si Zhong.
"Si Zhong, I'd like to visit your workplace."
Si Zhong hesitated, but Ning Shu, unwilling to give up, ran up to him and hugged him: "Can we?"
