It was already dark outside, and the snow was still falling.

Lin Xiaowan knew it was already December, but she did not know it was already Christmas Eve. She was actually unconscious for half a month.

After the nurse packed the things up and left, Huo Zheng continued to hold Lin Xiaowan’s hand, softly rubbing the needle mark on her hand.

Lin Xiaowan saw the dark circles under his eyes and patted the bed. “Come here and hug me.”

Huo Zheng climbed into bed and leaned against the headboard. He held her in his arms, unwilling to let go.

“Let’s make a deal. If there’s anything in the future, you must tell me. You’re not allowed to stay silent,” Lin Xiaowan said.

“Alright.”

When Lin Xiaowan woke up for her checkup, Huo Zheng had already informed his elder brother and sister-in-law about Lin Xiaowan’s condition.

It was already past 5 PM, and it was almost time for dinner. Qiao You’an called and asked what Lin Xiaowan wanted to eat for dinner.

Huo Zheng did not give Lin Xiaowan a chance to reply and said to Qiao You’an, “Make her something easy to digest.”

“Okay. How was the checkup? It’s almost the end of the year. After she’s discharged, bring her to the old house to stay.”

Huo Zheng tilted his head to look at Lin Xiaowan, asking for her opinion.

Lin Xiaowan nodded before Huo Zheng agreed and ended the call.

After that, Lin Xiaowan leaned into Huo Zheng’s arms and chatted with him.

Huo Zheng asked if she still wanted to go to the North Pole.

“North Pole?”

“That’s right. I’m not busy during the New Year. I’ll bring you there.”

Lin Xiaowan was stunned. This was her birthday wish from her previous life. How did he know about it? After a long time, she finally remembered that she had mentioned this in this life. At that time, he had also promised to bring her to the North Pole after he was done dealing with matters.

Lin Xiaowan had lost her interest now. She played with his hand for a long time before she said, “I don’t want to go anymore.”

Huo Zheng did not have any objections and said gently, “Alright.”

Lin Xiaowan hesitated for a long time before she finally sat up to face Huo Zheng.

Although Lin Xiaowan’s injuries had healed a lot when she was unconscious for half a month, they were not completely healed. Huo Zheng did not want her to move around, worried that she would aggravate her wounds. He asked worriedly, “What’s wrong?”

“I have something to tell you.”

She did not want to keep any more secrets from him.

He sat up and said, “Don’t move.”

Lin Xiaowan pointed at him and said, “So fierce.”

Huo Zheng looked at her helplessly.

“Let me tell you a shocking secret.”

Huo Zheng immediately thought about her family members and her uncle who deserved to die. He thought that she was about to tell him about her family. Unexpectedly, she dropped a bomb on him.

Lin Xiaowan hugged the blanket and said, “Actually, I didn’t see the love letter you wrote. When I went to look for it in the book, it was already gone. Don’t think I’m crazy after listening to what I’m about to tell you.”

Although her experience was real, she still felt that it was a little ridiculous.

“Actually, I read the letter in my previous life. In my previous life, I thought you didn’t like me. I didn’t dare to ask you about it. I thought you were cheating on me. After a series of incidents, I was hit by a car and died. Then, I was reborn back in time.”

After listening to her, it was hard for Huo Zheng not to suspect that what she said had something to do with the injury on the back of her head.

“What? You don’t believe me?”

Huo Zheng did not believe her so he did not say anything.

Lin Xiaowan continued to say, “We were married for three years, but you didn’t tell me about Song Zhiyi at all in my previous life. One day, you suddenly became busy. Every time you came home, you’d smell of unfamiliar perfume. Moreover, I kept receiving intimate photos of you and Song Zhiyi. I really thought you cheated on me. The day before our wedding anniversary, I saw you picking a ring for her. I was very sad at that time. When I fled, I got into a car accident while I was crossing the road and died.”

She thought about everything she had seen when she was a soul and sighed. “After listening to you, I guessed you were so close to her back then because she was threatening you as well… However, I didn’t know at that time. I thought you always liked her so I was very sad.”

Lin Xiaowan looked very serious and a little sad when she spoke. A frown could be seen on her face as well.

Huo Zheng reached out to smooth the frown on her face. He was about to speak when the nightmares he had when Lin Xiaowan was being held captive appeared in his mind. In the nightmares, she lay in his arms covered in blood. Suddenly, he choked and could not speak.

“What’s wrong?” Lin Xiaowan looked at him, puzzled.

Huo Zheng’s head suddenly began to hurt. He massaged his temples and closed his eyes. The pain was like a tidal wave, and his ears were ringing. He was worried about scaring Lin Xiaowan so he forced himself to tell her that he was fine. However, he could not move at all. He suddenly broke out in cold sweat.

Lin Xiaowan had never seen Huo Zheng like that before. She asked nervously, “What’s wrong? Do you have a headache?”

She began to regret telling him about her rebirth. After all, it was a matter of two different worlds. Who knew if Huo Zheng was affected by this knowledge?

Huo Zheng’s grip on Lin Xiaowan’s hand was very tight. Although she was in pain, she did not break free and allowed him to hold her hand.

“Can you hear me? Can you let go of my hand so I can call the doctor?”

Huo Zheng did hear Lin Xiaowan at all as scene after scene flashed in his mind. The scene came to a stop at the moment Lin Xiaowan lay in the ancestral hall covered by white cloth. Then, he lost consciousness.

Lin Xiaowan’s heart raced in her chest. She panicked and called his name. It took a while before she remembered to press the bell to call the doctor.

She was severely injured to begin with. The sudden stimulation made it difficult for her to breathe.

When the medical staff came in, a female staff member quickly helped Lin Xiaowan to calm down.

“Don’t be anxious. Calm down. It’s okay, it’s okay. Take a deep breath and let yourself relax.”

The other party helped Lin Xiaowan back to the bed and poured a glass of water for her.

“Alright, it’s alright now.”

After Lin Xiaowan regained her composure, she grabbed the doctor and asked tremblinbly, “What happened to him?”

The examination was very quick. The doctor said, puzzled, “Mr. Huo is fine. He’s just a little overworked. Why did he suddenly faint?”

Lin Xiaowan naturally did not say anything about her rebirth. She remained silent and looked at the doctor with teary eyes.

Seeing the worried expression on her face, the doctor said reassuringly, “It’s okay. It’ll be fine when he wakes up.”

Lin Xiaowan sobbed and said softly, “Thank you, doctor.”

She really regretted her words earlier, and she vowed not to speak rashly again.

When Huo Zheng woke up, she was going to tell him that it was all a dream she had. If Huo Zheng blamed her for talking nonsense, so be it.

“Alright, stop crying. Let me examine your eye.”

The doctor’s face and eyes were kind, and he spoke in a kind tone like that of an elder.

Lin Xiaowan wiped her tears away and raised her head so the doctor could examine her eye.
