2052, Thirty Years Of Sleep

The flight to South Vietnam was in the afternoon, and there was still some time in the morning. Yan Muyun planned to go to the hospital again.

On the one hand, it was to recover the blood in Zhang Xixue's body, and on the other hand, it was to visit her again.

She suffered too many changes yesterday. First she was stimulated by Zhang Zitong, and then her father had an accident and became a brain in a vat with only consciousness remaining in the world. Let alone a frail patient, even a normal person with a healthy body and a positive attitude may not be able to withstand such successive blows.

Even if it was just to fulfill his obligation as a friend, Yan Muyun felt that he had to go.

But what made him a little depressed was that some inexplicable guy followed him.

When I asked why, she smiled and said nothing. When I refused, she put her hands on her hips and rolled her eyes, just like an unreasonable naughty child.

"So what do you want to do after you follow me?" Yan Muyun turned around.

"Nothing." The girl sitting in the back row tilted her head slightly with a sweet smile on her face.

Well, that's true again.

Yan Muyun gave up.

The taxi stopped in front of the hospital entrance and the two got out of the car.

"No matter why you came here, stay safe and don't get into trouble. My friend is in a very bad state now, both mentally and physically."

"Don't worry, am I like that kind of person? And maybe I can inspire her and make her feel better."

"How to motivate her? Give her a massage?" Yan Muyun snorted coldly.

"Oh, don't be so stingy. Why do you, a grown man, care about my little girl?" Ye Buyu reached out and slapped him on the back several times.

Yan Muyun sighed. He couldn't understand the guy in front of him more and more.

Sometimes she's gentle and quiet, sometimes she's energetic, sometimes she's quirky, sometimes she's taciturn...it's hard to figure out what she's thinking about all day long.

...

When he arrived at the hospital, Yan Muyun was once again stopped by the bodyguard stationed here by Black Umbrella, but this time the other party did not stop him, but only needed to inform him before entering.

After a while, Zhang Xixue's mother Li Qiaoyun came out. She was still dressed in simple clothes, without makeup, and she looked like an ordinary middle-aged woman.

But after knowing the whole story of yesterday, Yan Muyun, who already felt that the other party was not simple, did not dare to neglect, and took the initiative to take a few steps forward: "Aunt Li."

"Xiaoyan..." Li Qiaoyun choked up as soon as he said these three words, and there was a faint glint in his eyes. But she just wiped it with the back of her hand, and her strong look returned to her face: "Thank you, thank you for saving Lao Zhang's life. If it weren't for you..."

Yan Muyun was not used to this kind of situation, so he waved his hands in embarrassment: "I didn't do anything. I was the doctor arranged by Jun Qianmian."

"Stop talking, I know everything you need to know." Li Qiaoyun patted him on the shoulder, speaking softly, but with a sense of power that no one could easily doubt: "If something happens in Menxia in the future, , tell me all. You saved the lives of our family, one big and one small. Don’t treat yourself like an outsider in the future."

"Ah... um, okay Aunt Li." Yan Muyun hesitated for a moment between the two titles of "aunt" and "sister", but finally chose the former.

After all, if you calculate based on actual age, the other party is not necessarily older than you, it is better to match the age based on appearance.

"You're here to visit Xiaoxue, right? Come in quickly. She hasn't spoken since yesterday, and she hasn't even eaten a few bites of food. You try to comfort her."

As he spoke, Li Qiaoyun took Yan Muyun's arm and pulled him in. Halfway through, he remembered something and lowered his voice: "By the way, I haven't told her about her father yet. I plan to keep it a secret for as long as I can, at least wait. Once her body recovers a little bit, you..."

Yan Muyun nodded: "I will pay attention."

Walking to the door of the ward, he suddenly realized something.

Why didn't Li Qiaoyun talk to Ye Buyu from the beginning to the end, or even ask himself who she was?

Yan Muyun turned his head and looked to his side. Ye Buyu was wearing a thick hood, and the expression on his face could not be seen at all.

Is it the ability that reduces the sense of existence... It's up to her. She happens to have a headache on how to explain her identity if someone asks, so at least this saves her some trouble.

"Xiaoxue, your friend is here. You guys are chatting first, and mom is going to make lunch and your favorite mushroom stewed chicken. Xiaoyan, don't leave in a hurry in a while, stay and have something to eat, and make your own "My share." Li Qiaoyun came in and greeted her, but before Yan Muyun could say her words of refusal, she had already closed the door and left.

On the hospital bed, Zhang Xixue opened her eyes, her face a little paler than yesterday. I couldn't tell whether it was because my physical condition had declined, or because something in my heart was broken.

She didn't say hello immediately, she just looked here calmly, her eyes unfocused.

"do you feel better now?"

Seeing that Yan Muyun had been holding back such a sentence for a long time, Ye Buyu couldn't help but roll his eyes. But she didn't say anything, she just quietly found a corner and sat down.

"Yeah." Zhang Xixue nodded slightly.

Yan Muyun took a deep breath, pulled the stool to the side of the hospital bed and sat down: "I came here today to tell you that Zi Tong doesn't really hate you that much."

Zhang Xixue remained silent, but her eyelashes trembled, as if she was touched.

"Zi Tong was very conflicted after knowing the truth, but she never had the thought of hurting you. She was just manipulated. Someone deliberately amplified the hatred in her heart for you and wanted to... Hurt you to draw me out.”

At this point, Yan Muyun's tone became a little lower: "In the final analysis, it is my responsibility for you to be injured this time. Zi Tong and you are both innocent."

Zhang Xixue's eyes finally became more alert, and she turned her head slightly to look at him: "Is the target you?"

"Yeah, but I don't know what they want from me." Yan Muyun sighed.

"So, they think...as long as you hurt me...no, kill me, you will come back to Menxia."

"Yes."

"So you will."

"Ah?" Yan Muyun raised his head and met Zhang Xixue's serious gaze, feeling a little angry for no reason: "So are you stupid?"

"Pfft." The girl smiled, her face a little more rosy.

"What question is Tiantian asking?" Yan Muyun was speechless.

"How...how is Zi Tong doing now?"

"The Menxia City Police will send her to Chenjing. There is a professor in the college who is willing to provide her with counseling and treatment. Don't worry, that professor is at the level of Taishan Beidou in terms of supernatural powers and theoretical knowledge. He will definitely not go out. error."

"That's good."

After confirming that Zhang Zitong would not be punished and would be able to return to normal in the future, Zhang Xixue's face relaxed a bit.

But she immediately showed a serious expression: "You just said it wrong."

"What did you say wrong?"

"You are also innocent." Zhang Xixue looked at him seriously: "The ones who really deserve to die are those who set your sights."

Yan Muyun wanted to say "well said", but when he thought that if it weren't for him, the other party wouldn't be lying on the hospital bed now, he felt a little blocked.

Not to mention her father Zhang Feiyu. From now on, the father and daughter can only meet in the virtual world.

Although Yan Muyun's own parents are now in the virtual world, his and Zhang Xixue's feelings can be said to be completely different.

After he learned that his parents' consciousness had been uploaded, he felt even more joyful about regaining it. It's the kind of surprise and touch that you thought you'd lost everything, but in the end, you've got a bright future.

Outsiders have no idea how Zhang Xixue will feel when she finds out about this.
