"That matter isn't urgent."

She smiled. "Take your time to think it over. Come find me anytime you've made up your mind."

Cai Xiaoyan nodded, her eyes a little red.

Fu Hua stood up, waved to them, and walked into the park.

"etc."

Cai Xiaoyan's mother hurriedly picked out several of the biggest and roundest apples and pears.

He wiped it again and again with the corner of his clothes and forced it into her hand.

"Young man, here! Try it, it's definitely from our own tree, sweet, and pesticide-free!"

"You sold this, how can I take it?"

Fu Hua declined, but her aunt became anxious.

Rough hands gripped her wrist tightly.

His tone was both earnest and stubborn: "You child, why are you being so polite? It's not like it's worthless. I won't feel at ease if you don't eat it."

Cai Xiaoyan watched this scene with a mixture of helplessness and amusement.

He gently tugged at the female lead's arm and whispered, "Comrade, just accept it. My mom is like that; she's very honest. Whoever is good to her, she'll give them her whole heart. If you don't accept it, she'll nag about it all day."

Upon hearing this, Aunt Zhang smiled so much that all the wrinkles on her face smoothed out.

He forcefully stuffed the fruit into the female lead's pocket.

He patted the back of her hand: "Did you hear me? Listen to Xiaoyan, take it! It's sweet! Water in the park costs money, but fruit quenches your thirst."

"Thank you, Auntie."

Fu Hua touched the fruit in her pocket, feeling a warm feeling in her heart.

There weren't many people in the park.

Several elderly men and women were playing chess in the pavilion.

A young couple was strolling by the lake, with several children chasing after them.

Fu Hua walked around the lake and found a bench to sit down.

The sun was shining, and a gentle breeze was blowing, creating fine ripples on the lake's surface.

She sat for a while, then stood up and went to rent a boat.

The small boat drifted gently on the lake.

She sat alone in the boat, putting her hand into the cool water.

She left the oars aside and didn't row, just letting it drift on its own.

The sky above was a deep blue, with a few white clouds drifting slowly by.

The autumn sky was a clear, deep blue, a breathtaking sight.

Being close to nature always brings inner peace.

People were fishing on the shore, and children were throwing stones.

A pebble falls into the water with a splash, creating ripples that spread outwards.

She lay down, closed her eyes, and felt the gentle breeze on her face; the unpleasantness in her heart slowly dissipated.

Take a bite of the green apple; it's sweet and sour.

It tastes better than the kind that's been treated with pesticides.

After drifting for an unknown amount of time, she rowed the boat back and went ashore.

She was slightly surprised as she walked out of the park.

A large crowd had gathered at the entrance, three or four deep.

Some people were shouting "Make way, make way, make way!" and others were saying "Something's happened, something's happened!"

Isn't this the place where Cai Xiaoyan and her daughter set up their stall just now?

Fu Hua's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly took a few steps to squeeze in.

There was a person lying on the ground.

She is Cai Xiaoyan's mother.

His face was deathly pale, his lips were blue, and he remained motionless.

Cai Xiaoyan knelt beside her, lay on her body, and cried her heart out.

"Mom! Mom, wake up! Mom, don't leave me!"

Fu Hua squeezed in, squatted down, and reached out to check his breathing.

Yes, but very weak.

I checked his carotid artery again; it was beating erratically and weakly.

Her mind raced.

Pale face, bluish lips, sudden fainting, and a history of high blood pressure...

Insufficient blood supply to the brain caused by high blood pressure.

"Get out of the way."

Her voice was clear and crisp. Cai Xiaoyan looked up, saw it was her, and was stunned for a moment, tears still on her face.

Fu Hua has already started taking action.

She laid Cai Xiaoyan's mother down and unbuttoned the top button of her collar.

They turned her head to one side to prevent her tongue from falling back and blocking her trachea.

"Don't cry."

She didn't look up, her voice steady.

"Go to the nearest clinic and see a doctor quickly, hurry!"

Cai Xiaoyan stood there, stunned, without moving.

"Hurry up! Don't just stand there."

Cai Xiaoyan felt as if she had been electrocuted; she got up and ran.

Fu Hua continued what she was doing.

She pressed several acupoints for emergency treatment and then supported her chin to open her airway a little.

She couldn't hear the whispers around her; all she could see was that deathly pale face.

A few minutes later, the crowd parted.

A young man ran over, carrying a first-aid kit on his back.

He squatted down, glanced at Fu Hua, and his eyes trembled slightly.

"What's going on?"

"Sudden fainting, suspected to be due to hypertension and insufficient blood supply to the brain. Breathing is normal, but the pulse is irregular and weak."

The young man nodded and began the examination.

The technique was professional and the movements were fast.

After finishing the investigation, he looked up.

Have you ever performed first aid?

Fu Hua nodded.

The young man's eyes flickered slightly: "Take him to the hospital."

He bent down and picked up Cai Xiaoyan's mother.

Fu Hua and Cai Xiaoyan stood by, protecting them, and the three of them ran through the crowd.

The hospital is not far away, just a few steps away.

The emergency room lights came on.

Cai Xiaoyan leaned against the wall, her whole body still trembling.

She looked at Fu Hua, her lips trembling, and it took her a long time to speak.

"Comrade Fu Hua... will my mother... be alright?"

"The doctor is trying to save him."

Fu Hua said gently, "Don't worry, Auntie is a lucky person."

Cai Xiaoyan nodded, and tears fell again.

A while later, the young doctor came out of the emergency room.

He took off his mask; his face looked a little tired, but his expression was relaxed.

"They've been saved."

He glanced at Fu Hua and explained, "Acute hypertension, insufficient blood supply to the brain. A few minutes later, it's hard to say what would have happened."

Cai Xiaoyan's legs went weak, and she almost knelt down.

Fu Hua quickly helped her up.

The young doctor looked at Fu Hua.

"I didn't expect you to know medicine. You did a great job with the first aid just now. You opened the airway, turned the head to one side, and pressed the acupoints. Otherwise, it would have been too late to get to the hospital."

Fu Hua nodded without saying anything more.

Cai Xiaoyan held her hand tightly.

"Comrade Fu Hua, thank you... thank you..."

Fu Hua patted her.

"Go see your mother first."

Cai Xiaoyan nodded and stumbled inside.

The young doctor stood there, looked at Fu Hua, and smiled.

"You studied medicine?"

Fu Hua shook her head.

"I've read a few books."

The young doctor paused for a moment, then laughed again, but this time the laugh was a little different.

"My name is Cheng Yue, I'm an emergency room doctor. What's yours?"

Fu Hua glanced at the man's outstretched hand and chose to ignore it.

"Fu Hua, student."

She turned and walked toward the emergency room.

Cheng Yue stood still, his gaze gently falling on Fu Hua's receding figure.

A half-smile played at the corners of his lips.

She didn't recognize him, as expected.

Legend has it that the aloof yet dazzling campus belle of Kyoto University...

Today, I finally got to see the real person up close.

He was also a student at Peking University; I'd bumped into him a few times from afar on campus.

All I know is that she studied physics and often spent time at the research station.

I had always thought they were just two parallel lines that would never intersect.

Unexpectedly, we met here and actually exchanged a few words.

Thinking back to those few short sentences we just exchanged,

A strange mix of emotions welled up in Cheng Yue's heart, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

Fu Hua saw the mother and daughter talking inside the ward from the doorway, but didn't go in to disturb them.

She turned and went to the department store outside the hospital, where she bought some things for her hospital stay.

When Fu Hua returned with her things, she found Cai Xiaoyan sitting alone on a bench in the corridor.

The lights were dim, and she had her head down, her shoulders hunched, looking as if her soul had been taken away.
