This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
not long after, nurse han brought back the new experimental medicinal agent.
after a few sharp crackling sounds, a needle was injected into her arm. a cool liquid went into ling lan’s bloodstream through the needle.
the pain that was coming from deep within the bones began to get better. feeling much better, ling lan took a deep breath to calm her nerves. after taking some much needed breaths, ling lan finally opened her eyes.
the blinding white light blinded ling lan’s eyes for a second. for a moment, she thought that she was still in the snowy mountain range from before.
“ling lan, you’re awake. how do you feel?” a voice filled with joyful surprise made ling lan return to reality.
ling lan frowned slightly. she quickly realized that her cautionary abilities and sensitivity were now greatly weakened. even if she had failed to advance into god-realm, she wouldn’t instantly regress to someone with only the basics in physical skills. what was happening?
“ling lan, don’t scare me like that. look at me. look at me…” a soft hand softly caressed her face while panicking. that person’s voice began to tremble.
‘their force of presence is that weak? they aren’t better than the average person. my comrades have never been that weak.’
ling lan’s gaze finally fell upon that person.
“luo chao?!” the familiar face stunned ling lan.
“ling lan, that’s good, you still remember me,” luo chao smiled as she cried.
“what is this place?” ling lan looked at this familiar yet strangely unfamiliar place.
“ling lan, this is the military’s central medical department,” replied luo chao.
“military’s central medical department?” ling lan was confused for a moment, “it’s such a familiar name.”
“of course, you’ve been living here for more than 20 years.” luo chao sighed deeply, releasing the frustration and sadness she had felt in the past few days. “unfortunately, we couldn’t find the reason for your condition.”
“20 years?” ling lan was shocked.
“it’s fine, ling lan. you’ve once again won against the disease. you’re the best.” luo chao seemed to have already become used to ling lan returning from death’s door every time. while she wiped her ling lan’s forehead using a wet towel, she was cheering ling lan on at the same time.
“what’s the time right now? give me the year.” ling lan frowned and asked. she had already sensed the strangeness of this place. this military central medical department didn’t have a single person who trained their physical skills. every doctor or nurse who passed by had weak forces of presence, and she was also the same. no, her aura was even weaker than the weakest of nurses. it was so weak that she might leave this world in the next second.
“april 2nd, 2018. april fool’s just passed,” luo chao replied with a gentle smile. this type of occurence where ling lan didn’t know the date and time had happened many times in the past so she had already gotten used to it.
“really…2018? five years later?” ling lan furrowed her brows. currently, it was five years after her supposed death in her past life. with a mind full of questions, ling lan moved her body and used all her might to sit up.
luo chao immediately went to help her after seeing ling lan move.
“laying down is better for you. your body’s condition isn’t too good. sitting will burden your muscles and organs too much.” a male voice shouted in a serious tone.
ling lan looked over and as expected, it was the answer she had in her mind—li shiyu!
“in my memory, you guys probably came here in the last five years,” ling lan said calmly.
before she died, this world didn’t have li shiyu, luo chao and the others. if her assumption wasn’t wrong, that nurse han, who went to report the results of the experimental medicinal agent, should be han xuya.
“yeah, five years ago, you were in grave danger. everyone thought you weren’t able to live. i even heard that you had stopped breathing and your heart had stopped beating. luckily, dr. li was in the military central medical department giving a seminar then. when he heard of your condition, he decisively chose to help. after months of intensive care, you finally showed signs of improving. it was then when dr. li took over your case, and since we are doctor li’s assistant, we followed dr. li here.” luo chao carefully recounted what happened in the last five years. she explained slowly while making sure ling lan was doing okay. the five years they have been together, they had already thought of ling lan as their own sister.
“i’m not sure how much time dr. li has invested into researching your disease for you. but, if you want to repay us, then don’t let this disease defeat you.” a familiar female voice suddenly rang from the door.
ling lan looked over. as expected, it was han xuya.
“actually, i find it a bit odd. why did you stay here?” you would have a much brighter future if you go research some other disease.” ling lan turned and looked towards li shiyu.
the information she had wasn’t enough. ling lan could only deduce the background of li shiyu from the future world.
li shiyu was stunned for a moment. it was as if he didn’t expect ling lan would ask this type of question. he tilted his head down to think about it and said, “perhaps, it was just destiny. perhaps, your condition interests me. or perhaps… i have already gone bored of praise and needed some challenges in my life.”
“it looks like i gave you a lot of hardships.” ling lan smiled.
“yeah, there’s so much that it almost makes me suspect all that i have achieved.” li shiyu smiled bitterly.
it was because of this almost unsolvable problem that he kept refusing to return to the headquarters. he had stayed here all this time for this girl he was worried about. he had stayed here for almost five years. his instructor back at the headquarters had been barking at his ears about him wasting five golden years in his life.
there had also been people who also suspected whether he had fallen in love with this tough girl. however, internally, he knew that he pitied and worried about her, maybe even liked her. however, it was nowhere close to the word ‘love’. of course, he couldn’t ensure that as time passed, this ‘like’ might not grow into ‘love’…
“my condition isn’t something that can be treated in this world. you know that.” ling lan looked at li shiyu intently. she believed that in this world, li shiyu was still a genius in terms of medicine which meant that he knew about her body’s condition.
“as an esteemed doctor, i won’t acknowledge the term ‘terminal illness’. no matter what disease or condition, i will always believe there is a chance to live.” li shiyu looked unwilling to give up. just like how he was in the future world with li lanfeng’s terminal illness, he was still trying to fight a cure and had been trying to do so for more than 10 years.
“even in this world, you are still you.” although ling lan wasn’t sure why she had returned to this world and why these people who shouldn’t have existed here randomly appeared before her. these people, no matter their personalities or attitudes, were not different than her comrades in the future.
“you’re tired. rest well and don’t speak too much.” seeing ling lan slowly closing her eyes, luo chao, who had been paying attention to ling all this time, immediately suggested.
she was truly the same as luo chao. she was still as detailed and as sensitive. as long as ling lan had a slight change in her mood, she would be able to sense it.
this feeling was familiar. there was someone in the future world who could also quickly capture her change in mood. it was just that he was more discreet than luo chao. no matter if it was a concern or a reminder, he would say it in a more discreet way. even if she sensed it, she would accept it wholeheartedly.
li lanfeng… she actually thought of him. was it because of li shiyu being here?
ling lan slowly shook her head. she stopped thinking about it since it could not be explained. of course, her head shaking also caused luo chao to speak up with concern. if it wasn’t for han xuya, who couldn’t bear to watch anymore, pulling her away, ling lan probably needed to try to comfort that little girl who was scared for her.
still, it felt really good to return to this world and meet a few familiar people!
ling lan closed her eyes tiredly and went to sleep once again.
