"I'm just so happy," Qin Wanshu almost couldn't remember the last time she cried, but tears fell naturally. She initially thought she merely liked Zuo Qinghuan, but now she realized that her feelings ran much deeper than mere liking.
"Wherever you are, I don't want to leave," how could she bear to leave Qin Wanshu? Qin Wanshu was the person she cherished most in this world.
"In the future, no matter what happens, prioritize protecting yourself first, okay?" Qin Wanshu didn't want Zuo Qinghuan to suffer any more harm, even if it meant protecting her.
If given another chance, Zuo Qinghuan would still push Qin Wanshu away. Whether in the past or in the future, she would always put Qin Wanshu first. Being with Qin Wanshu was already such a fortunate thing. How could she bear to let Qin Wanshu suffer even a tiny bit of harm? Protecting her was also her responsibility.
"How long have I been unconscious?" She must have been unconscious for a long time, otherwise Qin Wanshu wouldn't look so haggard. Zuo Qinghuan looked at her with extreme distress, wishing she woke up earlier.
"Two days." Two days, two agonizing days, longer than any other time.
"You haven't slept for two days?" If she wasn't injured and unable to move, Zuo Qinghuan would have wanted to embrace Qin Wanshu tightly.
"I took a little nap in between, when I felt tired." Qin Wanshu smiled, though she hadn't slept at all. She just didn't want Zuo Qinghuan to worry.
"Why don't you rest for a while? I feel bad seeing you like this." Zuo Qinghuan couldn't bear to see Qin Wanshu suffer any more.
"I'm not tired. Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? I'll ask the doctor to come and check on you." Qin Wanshu immediately called the duty doctor to examine Zuo Qinghuan. She was still very worried about Zuo Qinghuan's condition.
After the doctor finished the examination and confirmed that Zuo Qinghuan was fine, Qin Wanshu's tense heart relaxed a bit. She also made a phone call to Li Xin, informing her that Zuo Qinghuan had woken up.
Li Xin immediately came over from home to see Zuo Qinghuan. Upon entering the ward, Zuo Qinghuan was still motionless, but she was probably just sleeping because Qin Wanshu was also asleep leaning on Zuo Qinghuan's bedside. Li Xin knew that Qin Wanshu had been exhausted these past two days, but she could only rest easy once Zuo Qinghuan woke up. Li Xin watched as their fingers were tightly interlocked, finding it heartwarming. After enduring hardships together, their bond would surely deepen, loving each other and willing to die for one another. Such a feeling must be wonderful, Li Xin thought enviously. She silently stepped out of the ward, allowing them both to rest. If one day she could have a loving relationship like theirs with Ruowen, even if she had to get hit by a car for her, it would be worth it. Thinking of Ruowen, Li Xin's mood brightened. Regardless, she and Ruowen were now off to a good start.
After Li Xin reassured Qin Wanshu multiple times that Zuo Qinghuan would be fine now, Qin Wanshu dared to return to Zuo Qinghuan's place to fetch some things for both Zuo Qinghuan and herself. Zuo Qinghuan would probably have to stay in the hospital for a long time. When Qin Wanshu left, she entrusted Li Xin to look after Zuo Qinghuan, and Li Xin gladly accepted the responsibility.
“A hero saves the beauty and almost loses her life." Li Xin joked with the spirited Zuo Qinghuan after she woke up.
"I'm willing." Zuo Qinghuan rolled her eyes at Li Xin. She was willing but who would’ve thought that Han Shibin would go crazy. Thinking back to the situation at that time, Zuo Qinghuan still felt a bit scared. Fortunately, Qin Wanshu was fine, which was a blessing in disguise.
"You had surgery on your head..." Li Xin deliberately paused.
"And then?" Zuo Qinghuan could tell from Li Xin's expression that it wasn't going to be good news.
"To facilitate the surgery, they often shave off the hair." Li Xin teased Zuo Qinghuan. Zuo Qinghuan had longer and better hair than her. She wondered how much effort Zuo Qinghuan had put into maintaining her hair. Now, all of that has been shaved off, which will probably be quite a blow.

Sure enough, Zuo Qinghuan's face changed when she realized her head was still wrapped in bandages. She hadn't noticed the issue until Li Xin mentioned it. Now, the thought of her bald head made her scalp tingle.
"I actually think a chic nun* has its own unique charm," Zuo Qinghuan said stubbornly, despite feeling quite distressed inside.
*Buddhist nun
“Mm, the nun is a lot closer to the path of immortality," Li Xin said, adding insult to injury. However, she was genuinely looking forward to seeing Zuo Qinghuan's hairstyle once the bandages were removed. Li Xin decided that as a senior doctor, she would personally assist Zuo Qinghuan in removing the bandages, eager to see how stunning Zuo Qinghuan's nun look would be. Why did she even think about Zuo Qinghuan and Qin Wanshu rolling in bed with Zuo Qinghuan's bald head? That scene was just too stimulating for Li Xin; she felt like her nose was about to bleed. Li Xin involuntarily imagined that scene in her mind.
"Get lost!" Zuo Qinghuan felt annoyed whenever she saw Li Xin, especially when she tried to act all coquettish with her curly hair in front of her. Zuo Qinghuan found it even more irritating and felt like she was about to become depressed. Since the car accident, this was the first time she had felt depressed after being taken care of so meticulously by Qin Wanshu.
"Miss Fairy... Don't be sad... Qin Wanshu might actually like your latest look..." Li Xin said with a smile, laughing until her stomach hurt.
"What's making Dr. Li laugh so happily?" Qin Wanshu asked curiously. She had just returned and saw Li Xin laughing uncontrollably, completely abandoning the image of a great doctor, while Zuo Qinghuan looked at Li Xin with apparent annoyance.
"Ask the fairy, but the fairy is going to get angry, so I'll leave first." Li Xin said, holding her stomach that almost cramped from laughing. She couldn't stop laughing, her stomach hurt. Li Xin laughed so hard she had to support herself on the wall to leave Zuo Qinghuan's ward.
"What's going on?" Qin Wanshu asked softly, looking at Zuo Qinghuan, who had shifted from being annoyed to feeling depressed.
"My hair's gone," Zuo Qinghuan said mournfully.
"It can grow back," Qin Wanshu thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be a small matter. Although she also felt it was a pity that Zuo Qinghuan's long hair was gone, the person was the most important thing. As long as Zuo Qinghuan was safe and sound, that was more important than anything else.
"But it'll take a long time to grow back to its previous length. Now it's all gone, I don't want to look like a nun. I prefer the look of long flowing hair," Zuo Qinghuan said coquettishly to Qin Wanshu.
Qin Wanshu imagined Zuo Qinghuan with a completely bald head, and she couldn't help but see the resemblance to a nun. Suddenly, she understood why Li Xin had laughed, because she also felt like laughing a little. However, Qin Wanshu managed to hold back her laughter, not wanting to hurt the fragile ego of someone present.
"Ha, Li Xin, that lecherous woman, must have thought of something very lecherous and found it amusing," Zuo Qinghuan remarked, well aware of Li Xin's perverse nature. After all, she knew just how depraved that woman could be!
"You don't know what others are thinking," Qin Wanshu felt Zuo Qinghuan was overthinking.
"You can also imagine," Zuo Qinghuan looked at Qin Wanshu's serious face and suddenly felt playful.
"Hm?" Qin Wanshu raised an eyebrow in confusion, not understanding what Zuo Qinghuan wanted her to imagine.
"A scene where a nun and you roll in the sheets," Zuo Qinghuan said softly, watching Qin Wanshu trying not to laugh. Seeing Qin Wanshu's current expression, Zuo Qinghuan suddenly felt very pleased. "Hmph, it's making you want to laugh too!"
Qin Wanshu couldn't help but imagine Zuo Qinghuan with the image of a nun while doing that... It's quite something.
Author's Note:
This is a light-hearted chapter. The image of a woman with a bald head reminds me of Zhao Wei in "Shaolin Soccer".
