Chapter 3, Episode 0003: Awakening
After an unknown amount of time, her mind finally settled down, and Lin Yuexi finally woke up.
When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a young woman sitting by the hospital bed.
He was about 1.7 meters tall, very strong, even burly, with bulging muscles on both arms that showed he was very powerful, and his fists were as big as a sand pot.
To put it simply, apart from her delicate face and the two braids that tell her she's a woman, she looks more masculine than any man.
She wore a dark blue shirt and black pants, with neat, short hair that reached her ears, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a gentle yet dignified appearance.
Lin Yuexi recognized this person from the original owner's memories. Ren Yan, like the original owner, was also a descendant of a martyr, and she was even a descendant of three martyrs.
My first thought upon seeing Ren Yan was: with that physique, she wouldn't have to worry about not being able to earn a living in the countryside.
My second thought was: This girl probably really won't earn it.
However, she seemed to have a pretty good idea of what her mother was planning.
Suddenly, I felt a lump in my throat.
Parents who love their children plan far ahead for them.
Ren Yan's biological parents were both martyrs, and her adoptive father who adopted her later also became a martyr!
Although there is a widespread call to break superstitions, some things are not so easy to change.
People don't dare to say it openly, but many people privately believe that Ren Yan is cursed and that whoever adopts her will be cursed.
Fortunately, Ren Yan was already sixteen years old at this time. Both her biological parents and adoptive parents had left her money and tickets, so her livelihood was no longer a problem. Moreover, she was strong and had learned some skills from her adoptive father, so her safety was not a big issue.
Ren Yan is nineteen years old this year. I don't know why she suddenly has to go to the countryside, and she's going to the same place as Lin Yuexi.
Knowing that Lin Yuexi was all alone at home, he volunteered to come and take care of her, with only one request—to be fed.
Seeing that she was awake, Ren Yan rushed to the bedside with joy, "Xi Xi, you're finally awake! You scared me to death!"
As she finished speaking, she wiped away her tears and ran out of the ward, shouting, "Doctor, doctor, bed number 36 is awake! Bed number 36 is awake!"
They were in such a hurry that they didn't give Lin Yuexi any chance to react.
Ren Yan was quick, and the doctor was just as fast. In less than a minute, Lin Yuexi's bedside was surrounded by people wearing white coats.
There were about ten doctors who saw them.
After a thorough examination, the attending physician, who knew Lin Yuexi better than a relative, smiled and told Ren Yan that Lin Yuexi was fine and could go home to rest.
The old man's pills are still effective; Lin Yuexi's health is now better than before she fainted.
After the doctors left, Lin Yuexi looked at Ren Yan, who was still shaken, and said with a smile, "Yan Yan, push me home."
Ren Yan sighed and locked the door. As was her habit, she first touched Lin Yuexi's forehead to make sure she didn't have a fever. Then, with practiced ease, she supported Lin Yuexi's back with one hand and took the clothes from the bag by the bed with the other to change Lin Yuexi's clothes.
Lin Yuexi had no strength at all, and being a child from the apocalypse, she didn't have much shame. After a slight awkwardness, she let Ren Yan do as she pleased.
"It just so happens that the wheelchair that Aunt Zhang asked someone to buy arrived today. I heard that private individuals cannot own this kind of thing; it requires special approval. I'll give you the approval document later, so you must keep it safe."
It's all the fault of those scoundrels hiding in the shadows, who forced Xixi to go to the countryside.
Lin Yuexi knew that Ren Yan's focus wasn't on the wheelchair, but rather on her health. She quickly brought up the topic of the wheelchair, smiling and trying to sound cheerful, saying, "I'm fine, you don't need to worry." Little Xixi's voice was so soft it seemed a breeze could dissipate, and she was so weak that she could only sit upright with her own strength. Her delicate but pale face and listless appearance made Ren Yan's heart feel like it was soaking in a jar of pickled vegetables.
He pretended to be angry and patted Lin Yuexi's back lightly, as if it were just a tickle. "Why did you faint? Did Wang Yue say something to upset you? I've told you before that Wang Yue is a wicked woman with a thick skin. She's always impossible to get rid of."
She was being too lenient with Xiao Xixi's health; in her eyes, the Wang family members were all morally questionable.
Not all the older generation in the compound are upright. In her view, the Wang family got to where they are today by fighting against others. Like father, like son. The Wang family members all live off the same unethical practices.
It's bad at its core.
Uncle Leng and his family were incredibly unlucky to be neighbors with the Wang family. They had to constantly guard against their neighbors spying on them and causing trouble, and they also had to prevent the younger generation from corrupting their own children.
That's just how things are right now, so some ideas can only remain in our minds.
Lin Yuexi was unaware that Ren Yan, who had been working non-stop for a moment, had already thought of a whole bunch of things. She still softly retorted, "Wang Yue said that she was asked by Director Qian of the committee to propose marriage, and she also said bad things like that my parents are not my biological children."
Ren Yan probably hates the topic of whether or not someone is her biological child because she was also adopted.
Sure enough, Ren Yan almost bit her teeth off, but she habitually suppressed her temper in front of her. Her face turned pale, but she said in the gentlest tone, "She is an unmarried girl who actually helped people find a match. She is shameless and looks down on you, Uncle Leng and the others, and the entire Leng family. Don't pay any attention to her. Your grandfather and the others will definitely stand up for you in this matter."
Ugh, she's infuriating! I bet she'll tear Wang Yue's skin off sooner or later.
As the two were talking, Ren Yan quickly changed Lin Yuexi's clothes and then helped her into the wheelchair.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the cold and aloof guard, Xiao Luo, already waiting outside.
"Hey girl, I'll go get my luggage."
Xiao Luo was familiar with this process. He had been specially kept behind by the leader to help Ren Yan. After Xi Xi went to the countryside, he also had to rush to the Northwest to report for duty.
He quickly went inside, picked up his luggage, and hurried after them.
It was already evening when they returned to the compound. As soon as they got out of the car, several elderly men and women came up to greet them and asked about Lin Yuexi's situation.
"Xiao Ren, how is Xixi? Is she alright?"
"Why did Xixi suddenly faint? I heard she was getting better recently."
Ren Yan is from the North, and has a straightforward personality. She responded to each question with a smile.
"The doctor said that Xixi's health is much better than before."
"Yes, this shouldn't have happened. Xixi has been sleeping much better at night recently. She used to wake up several times a night, but lately she only wakes up once or twice. It's because Wang Yue from the Wang family was talking nonsense in front of Xixi and made her angry."
Lin Yuexi was not a good person in the apocalypse. Listening to Ren Yan's rant about how Wang Yue harmed her, she cooperated by leaning weakly against her wheelchair, making the elderly people around her feel even more sorry for her.
They had never seen Xixi so weak before; it seemed she was very ill this time.
It's no wonder people misunderstood. In the past, every time Lin Yuexi came back from the hospital, her car would park directly in front of her house, and then her mother, Ms. Zhang Hongying, would carry her inside to rest. No one in the compound had ever seen her like she had just been discharged from the hospital.
Lin Yuexi always went out for a walk when she was in relatively good physical condition, and her complexion was naturally different then.
