*Xin Lei*
I rushed out of the ward as soon as I heard what Dr. Kim said.
Bai Li…I am coming to your side.
I was so focused on going to where Bai Li was that I didn't notice a hand on my shoulder, stopping me.
"Lei Lei!"
I stopped and slowly looked back.
Dad…
Bro and Shi Ruiling arrived too.
Dad pulled me into a hug. "Lei Lei. Where were you going? You are still weak."
I said nothing.
"Lei Lei...we heard what Zhang Xiulan said."
I felt his hands shaking as they patted my head. I heard him softly gasping.
"You spoke. My daughter talked. My Lei Lei can talk now…"
I trembled.
