"The patient is unconscious."
As the beeping sound rang out, Yun Nuan, who had endured so many years of suffering from illness, felt extremely relieved at this moment.
She no longer had to endure these awful things, no longer had to worry about whether she would wake up tomorrow, and no longer had to see other people's pitying and sympathetic eyes.
"Announcing death." A voice filled with helplessness and sorrow rang out.
The face on the hospital bed departed with a smile; a white sheet was placed over it, and the coffin was raised and buried.
"He died at such a young age, and his parents are gone too. He even had to sign the critical condition notice himself, which is so pitiful."
As someone spoke, their voice choked up.
Yun Nuan slept soundly, more so than she had in all these years. However, the noise around her was a bit noisy, which gave her a headache and even caused her to feel a dense, tingling pain all over her body.
This familiar feeling is the same as when she was alive.
The next second she impatiently opened her eyes.
"Shut up"!
She sat up and looked at the person who had been talking incessantly in front of her. The person was dressed simply and had a somewhat unapproachable appearance. He was in his forties or fifties, with triangular eyes and high cheekbones, making him seem difficult to talk to.
She was stopped halfway through her rambling, her face flushed slightly, but she continued rambling.
“Miss Yun, it’s not that I don’t want to serve you, it’s just that Madam isn’t willing to give me money for next month, and the caregiver’s fee here isn’t enough either. I… I won’t be able to come and take care of you tomorrow.”
She spoke hesitantly, her eyes darting around, and Yun Nuan looked at her unfamiliar face with some confusion.
Who is this person, and why are they here?
She looked around at the layout again. It was clearly not the ward she had stayed in before. This place was like a single room, with complete facilities, but it felt cold and impersonal.
She used to share a hospital room with other people. There was a girl next door who liked to listen to novels, but she's gone now.
Where is this?
Her voice was rough and hoarse, as if she hadn't had water in a long time. That shout she had just let out seemed to be her limit.
The person was taken aback for a moment when asked the question, but quickly replied.
“Miss Yun, this is Qingshan Sanatorium. Your stepmother sent you here to recuperate. She promised to give me money every month to take care of you, but this month she said she doesn’t need to take care of you anymore. So, I thought I wouldn’t come tomorrow. Also, Miss Yun, I guess you can’t stay here for long. Madam didn’t set aside much money. You should pack your things and leave as soon as possible.”
Yun Nuan recognized each word she spoke, but when put together, it wasn't so clear.
Stepmother, Qingshan Sanatorium—these words sound so familiar.
After the woman finished speaking, she saw that the girl was stunned and thought she couldn't accept it.
But since things had come to this, that was all she could do. The lady wasn't paying anymore, so she had no obligation to continue taking care of her.
Besides, taking care of Miss Yun requires meticulous attention to detail. You have to remember what she can and can't eat, and all the medicines she needs to take every day. If it weren't for the high price offered, she wouldn't have come.
She glanced at Yun Nuan, then packed her things and left.
The window wasn't closed when she left. The early spring air in S City was still chilly, and the wind blowing in through the window made the curtains sway.
She shivered as the cold wind rushed towards her.
"Yun Nuan was thrown into a sanatorium by her stepmother, ostensibly to recuperate, but in reality to make her ingratiate herself with her fiancé, Qin Yan. However, Yun Nuan fell into a coma for a month as soon as she entered the sanatorium, and she didn't even get close to Qin Yan, let alone see his face. At that time, the Qin family changed hands, and Qin Yan was stripped of his power by Qin's second uncle because of his lame leg. Seeing that it was no use trying to please Qin Yan, her stepmother simply gave up on Yun Nuan as well, leaving her to fend for herself in the sanatorium."
An electronic voice played in her mind, and her body stiffened. This was a familiar scene!
She recalled her time in the hospital ward, where the girl next door was there to have hemorrhoids removed. She loved listening to audiobooks, and even listened at a rather loud volume.
When she learned that her name was Yun Nuan, she even pointed to the name in the novel on her phone and said it to her.
"Look, your name is Yun Nuan, and the villainous female supporting character in the novel I'm reading is also named Yun Nuan. You're not going to be transported into the book any second now, are you? Do you want to memorize the whole text now?"
As she spoke, she began reading the synopsis. In short, this book continues the typical CEO romance novel formula of him running away while she chases him, with no way for them to escape.
She loved the male lead, framed the female lead, suffered retribution, and eventually fell ill and died in her hospital bed!
She dismissed the introduction with disdain, but the next second she was on the operating table, her fate uncertain.
She transmigrated into the story and became the villainous female supporting character. More importantly, what she thought was liberation was just the beginning. This villainous female supporting character even had the exact same illness as her.
I feel a buzzing sound in my ears and my head is throbbing.
The pain and illness she felt in her past life returned. Her body was just like before; she would catch a fever or a cold if she got even slightly chilled. She couldn't drink anything cold, couldn't eat anything hot, and would vomit and have diarrhea at the slightest disturbance.
In her previous life, even doctors couldn't find the cause of her illness, so she could only stay in the hospital for IV drips to prolong her life. After finally dying, she had to transmigrate into a book to suffer again.
To hell with that vicious female supporting character, she won't stand for it!
She curled up on the bed, she didn't want to live anymore, not at all. She bit her lip hard to keep from making a sound, she had only one thought: to die again.
Unfortunately, her wish was not fulfilled. A nurse who came to check on her noticed that something was wrong with her and went to call the doctor.
In her dazed state, her slender wrist was lifted up, and a tiny needle pricked her skin, allowing the cool liquid to slowly flow into her body.
"The patient caught a cold and developed a fever; we need to keep an eye on him tonight."
The nurse on duty took careful notes; there was no other way. None of Ms. Yun's caregivers were present, so they had to keep an eye on things themselves.
It's said that the Yun family has abandoned her; she's a pitiful person.
Three days passed during this illness, and while Yun Nuan was unconscious, she also figured out the relationships between the characters in the book.
The thought of her stepmother, the man chasing after that so-called male lead, and the way he made things difficult for the female lead made her wish she could just kick the bucket right now.
However, it seems she has a fiancé in this sanatorium, but no one knows where he is.
"After Miss Yun finishes her IV drip, drink the porridge. You can go downstairs for a walk later. The sun is shining brightly today, and a little walk is good for your health."
The nurse helped her remove the needle and then set up a small table for her to eat.
Since the caregiver wasn't around, and the nurses couldn't bear to see her do it herself, they would come over from time to time to check on her and help her out.
Her "thank you" was barely audible, almost inaudible unless you listened very carefully.
The nurse smiled and said, "You can walk around by yourself later. If you're free, I can accompany you."
Yun Nuan shook her head. They were all very busy and didn't need to come and keep this useless person company.
As the nurse was leaving, she glanced back at her. Her frail body and already small face had become even thinner. Her complexion was deathly pale, devoid of any color. She suffered from illness every day, and even in her condition, no one from her family came to visit.
"Oh dear," she sighed and left the ward.
Yun Nuan only drank a few mouthfuls of porridge before she couldn't eat anymore. She loathed this kind of food and now only wanted to eat things she had never tried before, spicy and deadly.
