Late at night, hospitals always seem much quieter than other places.
Nie Rujun's medication had already taken effect. After the doctor's examination, she was given a shot of sedative because there was no other solution.
She could only soak in cold water, enduring the initial pain that felt like ants gnawing at her heart.
As the effects of the medication slowly wore off, so too did the pain.
"Doctor, is this okay?" Lu Fengxuan hesitated, "Enduring like this, won't my friend..."
Although she stammered her words, the doctor understood her meaning and said solemnly:
"Your friend's condition isn't as serious as you think. The dosage in her body isn't that high. If she endures it for a while, it will pass. If she finds it too uncomfortable, you can have her boyfriend or husband come over."
Lu Fengxuan thought to herself, if I could call her husband, I wouldn't be discussing this issue with you here.
"So, you mean after enduring it, there won't be any problems, right?"
