Gu Xiaobei's heart clenched. Did that mean that Lu Zhanguo once faced mortality? Gazing at Lu Zhanguo with a pang of distress.
Lu Zhanguo affectionately patted her head, saying, "It's all in the past."
Gu Xiaobei held his hand firmly and remained silent.
When they arrived at Qin Mei's ward, Qin Li and a gentle-looking middle-aged woman in her forties were inside.
Then, Gu Xiaobei realized-- Qin Mei was Qin Li's sister. Qin Li resembled their mother, but she looked more youthful and naive. She didn't carry the gentle and calm demeanor of her mother. Qin Mei, on the other hand, took after their father and appeared more heroic.
As Qin Li was chatting with Qin Mei, the sound of the door made her look up. Seeing Gu Xiaobei and Lu Zhanguo, she jumped up in excitement, "Sister Xiaobei? My gosh, you know my sister? Mom, this is Sister Xiaobei I've told you about. She's wonderful."
Qin Li spoke incoherently due to her excitement. Qin's mother, Zhang Yufen, stood up with a warm smile.
