A Star Reborn: The Queen’s Return

“Ah, he can’t live for long?” Xia Yingluo was startled.

Doctor Zhou rolled her eyes. “What’s the fuss about? Look at those long-lived species on the earth, turtles, jellyfish, which one of them is not metabolically slow? It’s easy to die early if it’s fast, it’s said to be so in the scientific community.”

Xia Yingluo was silent. The strange disease that Wei Lingnan had transmitted to her was early death?

If so, where should she go to cry her eyes out?

Boohoo, she was still so young. She was only a sixteen-year-old beautiful flower with a tender face, her parents also loved her, and she could enjoy endless glory and wealth. A huge amount of good times still awaited for her, so how could she die without enjoying it all?

Wei Lingnan, that abnormal neuropathy!

Where had she offended him, why did he want her to die?

Xia Yingluo cried without tears. “Doctor Zhou, I think I’m going to die soon.”

Doctor Zhou looked at her angrily. “If you don’t care about your body again, you’ll really be close to death! Look at some of the people in the training camp that are like you, they fight and fool around with people in the society and don’t learn properly! Furthermore, your family is also poor, what can you do in the future? You can’t really live your life relying on sugar daddies! The best time for a woman is only a few years. When you’re old, you’ll have nothing to support yourself with and will only starve on the streets!” She said angrily. If she was Xia Yingluo’s mother, she would have hit her already.

Xia Yingluo felt she couldn’t wash clean of these accusations no matter what. What fighting and fooling around in the society, how had this become her reputation unbeknownst to her?

She drooped her head and listened to the doctor’s scolding, but her mind was more preoccupied over her body. If even the best hospital in the city couldn’t find out what was wrong with her, then did she really have to lower her head to beg Wei Lingnan? Or was there another way? She could go home in advance to ask her parents and uncle for help. Maybe the elders would be able to find out what happened to her.

However, this would mean that she had failed her trial.

She was extremely tangled up. Why did she have to be stuck with this thing during her trial?

Was her life or the trial more important?

It was really such a difficult choice…

Xia Yingluo was so lost in her worries she didn’t even hear the last words of Doctor Zhou’s nagging. Finally, Doctor Zhou concluded. “Stay in the hospital for a few days and reflect on yourself. Once you’re well, you’ll leave the hospital. I’ll give you a sick leave note so that you don’t have to run your laps anymore. Also, take whatever medicine you can before you leave the hospital, it can all be reimbursed in the trainee welfare, okay?”

Xia Wei was a little surprised and moved.

She understood Doctor Zhou’s intention—she was about to be expelled. Once she was formally removed from the training camp, she would have to pay for her own medical treatment afterward. Doctor Zhou was afraid she couldn’t afford it, so she reminded her to quickly get well while she could be reimbursed.

She thanked Doctor Zhou for her kindness.

Doctor Zhou snorted coldly. “Do your best.”

She got up and left the ward.

Xia Yingluo rolled the blanket over her. Her thoughts were complicated and she racked her brains thinking it over.

What if she was really dying? Should she leave a will and tell her parents to take revenge on Wei Lingnan for her?

Just as she was thinking about this, the door opened. A tall, slender man walked in calmly, his face handsome, and his thin ice-like lips were curled upwards in a smirk. It made people feel strangely chilled to the bones.

Wei Lingnan.

Why did he come?

Xia Yingluo’s body was tense. She sat up alertly and looked at him.

Wei Lingnan walked to the bed and looked down at her from above. “Are you better?” He put down the things he had brought.

This man always seemed to be in control of the situation. It was really… extremely hateful. Xia Yingluo looked at him for a long while and said, “Come, sit here.”

Wei Lingnan glanced at her and really sat down beside her bed.

Xia Yingluo said, “Sit closer.”

Wei Lingnan moved the chair towards her.

Xia Yingluo: “Closer.”

As soon as Wei Lingnan moved the chair again, Xia Yingluo picked up a fruit knife on the bedside table and stabbed him quickly and ruthlessly. She stabbed him in the shoulder with the knife.

A lot of blood poured out instantly.

It dyed his shirt, her hands, and the mattress.

He didn’t even frown. He stared at her with a pair of smooth pupils that were rid of any emotion.

As she slowly withdrew the fruit knife, the blade scratched his bone, making a screeching sound that caused goosebumps. Neither of them spoke. They let the sound continue until at last, she lightly pulled out the knife and threw it to the ground.

Blood spewed out like a spring.

However, soon, the wound on Wei Lingnan’s shoulder healed immediately under the naked eye. The blood flow stopped, leaving only dry marks. Wei Lingnan didn’t even change his expression or posture throughout the process. He asked gently, “What are you doing?”

Xia Yingluo laughed. “You made me feel pain, so I’m giving you pain back.”

He looked into her eyes and smiled slowly. “This is my Ah Luo.”

She was furious at his words. “Who is your Ah Luo? What qualifications do you have to call me that? Do you believe—” She pointed at the fruit knife on the ground. “I’ll cut your throat with that? What’s the point of you healing, then?”

“Will you cut my throat?” He asked calmly.

Xia Yingluo choked. No matter how much she hated him, she had never really hurt anyone before, and she didn’t want to now either.

She snorted and turned her head.

Wei Lingnan looked at her, the faint sunshine shining on the side of her face so beautifully. He reached out and gently touched her cheek, but she quickly avoided his touch.

“Get lost,” she said.

Wei Lingnan smiled. “Why are you so heartless? Do you know who saved you when you had a high fever and coma?”

She said coldly, “It definitely won’t be you.”

Wei Lingnan said, “Unfortunately, it was me.”

Xia Yingluo’s expression changed. “I don’t believe you. There is so many medical staff here, why would they need you to interfere?”

“They are all idiots,” Wei Lingnan said indifferently as if he wasn’t just talking about the city’s best medical staff but rather a group of ants. “They couldn’t even find the cause of your illness, the only thing they could do was give you the critical illness notice. I kissed you and helped your blood pressure, heartbeat and temperature return to normal. Many people present at the time saw it.”

Xia Yingluo glared at him and shook her head. “This is ridiculous. The doctor can’t possibly believe that a kiss saved my life.”

Wei Lingnan smiled again. “Of course they don’t believe it. They think I’m your beloved person, and it was because of my kiss that rekindled your will to survive and helped you wake up automatically. What a fairytale, right?”
