She could sleep for days, but she thinks someone is calling her name . She wants to open her eyes, but they wouldn’t budge . She tries and tries… but her body remains asleep . And the voices keep calling her name .
Who is it? Who’s calling for her?
She really wants to know who wants her to wake up .
When darkness settles, her consciousness disappears, including the voice .
Where am I? She opens her eyes, and all she can see is the white ceiling, and the white walls… the white bed, and the white fluorescent lights… An Chuxia tries to move her fingers, but her body is numb from pain . She wants to speak, but her throat is very dry .
The door opens and a student nurse wearing pink uniform enters the room . She has with her a cell phone and a medicine tray with a prescription bottle . Before approaching the bed, the nurse looks at the bottle and writes something down .
“How long… . ” An Chuxia tries to speak, but her voice sounds hoarse and strange .
“You… you… . ” The nurse drops the pen, shaking . She doesn’t wait for An Chuxia to talk . Instead, she runs out and shouts, “Doctor, doctor! The patient in intensive care just woke up!!!”
Soon, some doctors fly into the room . An elderly physician looks at her . He glances at the nurse with dissatisfaction . “Why all the fuss? She just woke up . You’d think you saw a ghost . ”
As soon as he says the words, he blanches . The doctor stops talking and the little nurse gives him wide berth .
“Xiaonainai, you’re finally awake . Mrs . Han specially arranged for me to care for you . Do you feel uncomfortable?” Another physician, one with spectacles, asks .
Cough cough . “Water… . ” It is easy for her to say the word . Then, a nurse wearing a special uniform hands her the drink immediately . An Chuxia lifts her head and tilts the bottle to take in a few sips .
As she slowly empties out the cup of water, An Chuxia coughs until she can find her voice .
“Do you want more water?” Someone asks again .
Seeing so many doctors and nurses around her makes her feel weird . An Chuxia coughs again and shakes her head . “No, thank you . Excuse me . Where am I? Why am I here? Who are you? Why are there so many people?”
She tries to recall what happened, but it feels like something is preventing her from remembering what happened . Her memory remains blank . She feels dizzy, sore, and uncomfortable .
“Xiaonainai, do you remember anything? You’re at Center City Hospital . You fainted from overexertion and dehydration . Plus, you went through a traumatic event . As for everyone else… I’d like to ask you if you know who you are?” The doctor with spectacles asks her patiently . He sounds warm and comforting .
“I… fainted?” An Chuxia frowns . Then, like a dam that just broke, her memories start flooding in .
The blood on the ground, the jungle that won’t reveal the sun, the kidnapping, Nangong Zijue, the tall foreigner, the helicopter… .
All the memories are starting to piece together .
“Han Qilu! Han Qilu!!!”
