The night grew late. While the bright moon hung high up in the sky outside the window, the cold moonlight bathed the ground.

The main light in the ward was not switched on. Only the dim table lamp by the bed was turned on, but its weak light still looked gentle.

Su Nan held a warm towel and carefully used it to wipe Ruan Heng's body whose eyes were still shut as he lay in bed. She did it slowly and with detailed focus. By now, she was adept at it.

A while after that, she was finally done, so she began to massage his arms and legs. When she was done, she was worn out. The weather was cool, yet there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

When she finally sat down and reached out to gently hold Ruan Heng's frail hand, she could vaguely feel his hand subconsciously twitch a little, but upon studying his face, his eyes were not open.

He must be trying hard to open his eyes as Su Nan seemed to be able to feel his tensed up body. Sadly, he still could not open his eyes right now...

"Ruan Heng, try harder. You'll be able to open your eyes soon. You've already been sleeping for so long now. It's time you wake up...If you don't wake up soon, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to last any longer...Don't you miss me? Don't you miss our daughter? It's been so long. Our daughter's all grown up now. She knows how to call us 'Father' and 'Mother'. Why won't you wake up?" Su Nan held his hand tightly and put it to her chest as she spoke with a raspy voice.

"I finally managed to complete the design today, when I handed it to Mr. Rose, he was very happy with it. Professor Harry says that your condition's looking up right now, so I'm planning to tell Mr. Rose that I'm resigning. I'll just take good care of you and hope that when you open your eyes, the first person you'll see is me...

"I'm missing Xiao Xi a little. When I called her today, I heard her call me Mother. She pronounced it so clearly. Her eyes are looking more and more like yours."

...

When Xi Xiaye stood at the door, she could hear Su Nan's words from afar.

The entire ward was very quiet, so Su Nan's voice sounded particularly clear too.

Seeing her so sad, Xi Xiaye felt a sudden pang in her heart. She thought about it for a moment before slowly lifting a hand to push open the half-closed door...

"Nan Nan..." Her calm voice had a hint of raspiness, so she sounded dazed and surreal.

Su Nan thought she was having an illusion!

Why did she seem to have heard Xiaye's voice? Still, even as she wondered that, she could not help but turn to look at the door, and when an elegant blue figure greeted her sight, she suddenly trembled.

She widened her teary eyes and fixed her gaze on Xi Xiaye who had suddenly appeared.

She was stunned for quite a while before speaking out in disbelief, "Xiaye? Is that really you? Xiaye!"

Upon hearing that, Xi Xiaye pursed her lips and chuckled gently. She walked over in a few light steps and stopped before Su Nan. "Obviously, it's me. I was making a trip here, so I decided to visit you. Mu Yuchen's here too. He's still talking to the doctor. Are you two doing okay?"

"Xiaye!" As she reached out to hold Xi Xiaye's wrist and feel the warmth from her body, Su Nan could not help but blink her tears back. There was a joy of a long-awaited reunion in her tone. "Why are you back? How did you know we were here? How are both of you here?" Her rushed yet grateful voice revealed how emotional she was at the moment.
