Zhilan fell back asleep not long after Jiang Biyun and the others had left, possibly due to the medicine. When she awoke again, it was already noon.
"Awake, are you? How can someone your age be so frail? Your fever has subsided a bit, but looking at you now, I'm worried it might come back," the school doctor commented as he opened the curtain and glanced at Zhilan. He had a keen impression of Zhilan since her brother was a soldier. "If your fever returns this afternoon, we'll have to send you to the hospital. After all, this is just a school clinic; we don't have all the medicines here."
"Alright." Zhilan nodded, preparing to speak to the doctor, when two more people walked in.
Gu En was the first to enter, followed by Liu Jiang, who was holding a bouquet of white lilies.
The doctor must have been acquainted with Gu En. He just nodded in acknowledgment and left without saying a word.
