Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ji Buwang didn’t even know how he left the ward. When he returned to the doctor’s office out of professional habit, the doctors following him couldn’t help feeling curious.
…
“Doctor Ji, so you know the patient in Ward 36.”
“That’s right. Why didn’t I hear you mention that before, Doctor Ji? No wonder you were so desperate to save her previously.”
Ji Buwang was stunned when he heard that, recalling the night he had been on duty more than a month ago.
When Mu Jingzhe had been brought in, the situation had actually been very dangerous. It had basically been hopeless, but for some reason, he’d just felt that he couldn’t give up.
He’d had a vague feeling that if he didn’t save this person, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Hence, he had refused to give up. Even though her heart had stopped, he hadn’t given up. In the end, he had finally snatched her back from the gates of hell and worked a miracle.
Since saving her, Ji Buwang had been wondering why he’d had these thoughts back then.
However, after being saved, she hadn’t woken up. After a while, Ji Buwang couldn’t see anything special about her, so he’d thought that it was just his imagination. Alas, he hadn’t expected that when she woke up, everything would change because of a single name.
He seemed to suddenly realize why he had felt that way back then, as well as why he was face-blind.
He could see people’s faces but couldn’t remember them because he needed to remember her face first.
His only wish in the dream was to remember her face. Perhaps it was because he had been afraid of forgetting or confusing her, so he would rather not remember anyone else’s face. He’d only wanted to remember her face.
He had never understood why his dream self had prayed so sincerely and desperately, but today, he suddenly understood.
Face blindness was very painful, but in order to find her, he had still been willing to go through this forever and ever.
Ji Buwang heaved a sigh of relief. As a doctor and an atheist, he didn’t believe in reincarnation. However, all these coincidences seemed to prove that there was indeed such a wonderful fate in this world.
He even suspected that this patient named Mu Jingzhe might have had the same dream as him before.
It felt great to be able to clearly see and remember someone’s face. In spite of his busy schedule, Ji Buwang couldn’t help wanting to visit her. Therefore, even if it wasn’t on the way, he would pass by Mu Jingzhe’s ward six times a day.
Every time he passed by, he realized that she would always notice him immediately and smile brightly at him.
She seemed to be staring at the door, waiting for him to pass by.
And because he had said that he wanted to see her smile, she kept smiling at him. Every single time.
After passing by six times and seeing those six smiles, Ji Buwang’s heart was a mess.
Therefore, he restrained himself and stopped walking past her room.
Mu Jingzhe was very disappointed when he stopped coming. “Shiliu, when can I get out of bed? Even if I still can’t walk, I can sit in a wheelchair. I want to go out.”
“Sister, if there’s anything you want, you can tell me.”
“It’s useless to tell you.”
“But you still have to recuperate. Why are you in such a hurry? What’s going on?”
“Something very important.” She wanted to see Ji Buwang. A day apart from him felt like three years. He was clearly right in front of her, yet not seeing him felt really terrible.
“What else could it be? Don’t you just wish to see Doctor Ji? Yes, Doctor Ji is very handsome and impressive, and he’s one of the most popular and impressive doctors in his department. Many patients and colleagues are infatuated with him. But Sister, wake up. You’re only one of them.”
“No way. We’re destined to be together.” Mu Jingzhe refused to accept this.
Xiao Shiliu looked at Mu Jingzhe helplessly. Her steady older sister, who had never been in love, was doomed. This rebellious phase had arrived too late. She was plain yet self-confident, so she was totally beyond redemption. She insisted that they were destined to be together.
At the thought of Mu Jingzhe craning her neck to look at the door, waiting to see Ji Buwang, and the way her eyes looked eager to take off the doctor’s mask again while he was doing his rounds, Xiao Shiliu was very afraid that her sister would be kicked out of the hospital for harboring ill intentions toward the doctor.
Xiao Shiliu was also very helpless while seeing her treat her savior like this. She felt that this must be the author’s fault. It was because she had used her older sister’s name carelessly in her book that her older sister had become so strange!
Xiao Shiliu secretly left another comment on the novel. In the end, the author couldn’t take it anymore and blocked her.
Unable to harass the author anymore, Xiao Shiliu could only secretly pray that Mu Jingzhe wouldn’t be kicked out. Fortunately, Doctor Ji was magnanimous, so in the end, they stayed in the hospital.
However, Mu Jingzhe also made everyone sigh, as she started to frantically inquire about Doctor Ji’s situation. It seemed like she was trying to woo him and didn’t intend to let go.
His colleagues in the hospital quickly found out that yet another patient had fallen for Doctor Ji and was going around asking about him.
Everyone was used to it because this wasn’t the first time. There were always patients who came to ask questions. Not only was Doctor Ji popular among his colleagues but also among the patients.
None of them was surprised to see Mu Jingzhe asking around. They watched in amusement as Mu Jingzhe, who couldn’t get out of bed yet, grabbed every nurse and asked them about Doctor Ji. They only said whatever they could.
Later on, it became even more impressive when she was able to get out of bed and sit in a wheelchair. When she had nothing to do, she would wait for Doctor Ji at the door of the ward. When Doctor Ji was working in the office, she would secretly take a look.
Besides, everyone realized that Mu Jingzhe somehow knew some of Doctor Ji’s preferences. She seemed to know some things that even they didn’t know.
What was even stranger was that he seemed to treat Mu Jingzhe differently. Doctor Ji usually kept his distance from the patients, politely refusing anything that exceeded his duty as a doctor. If she were any other patient, he would have dealt with her coldly.
He seemed to care about her too. Every time she was mentioned, he would pay more attention.
Everyone felt that they might know each other, yet that sort of didn’t appear to be the case. In any case, it was quite strange.
His colleagues in the inpatient department saw that Mu Jingzhe’s eyes were shining like a radar, constantly staring at Doctor Ji even though she had yet to recover.
Because she was still in university, Xiao Shiliu took care of Mu Jingzhe the most. Every day, she would look at her sister with a gaze that said “My older sister is crazy” and “My older sister is completely useless”. She was like an old mother who was worried about her daughter.
However, no matter how worried Xiao Shiliu was, her rebellious older sister would go straight to Doctor Ji without turning back, looking infatuated every day.
Mu Jingzhe wasn’t doing it on purpose. The main reason she did this was that the sense of regaining what she had lost was too precious, making her feel blissful just by looking at Ji Buwang every day.
After waiting for so long, she felt very happy to see her sweetheart again and she felt like she was floating on a cloud.
In a different world, Ji Buwang was still a Prince Charming, but there was now an additional sense of abstinence.
Even an ordinary white coat looked different on him.
Every day, Mu Jingzhe kept bubbling with bliss. She actively cooperated with the treatment, wanting to recover as much as possible. She was doing quite well.. Before long, his colleagues started to like Mu Jingzhe even more, which was apparent whenever they mentioned her.
