The child ran off happily with a lollipop, while Wen Ying approached the Zhang family's door with a small transparent box.
The small transparent box was soft to the touch, made from an unknown material, and felt quite nice in the hand.
If she remembered correctly, this was the first time Wen Ying had gone to Uncle Zhang's house since arriving in this world.
Uncle Zhang's house is only a four or five-minute walk from the grocery store, located in an older neighborhood where the paint on the buildings has faded. Most of the residents here are elderly.
Or perhaps several generations living under one roof.
Wen Ying easily found Uncle Zhang's house and knocked on the door.
After knocking for quite a while, no one answered the door.
Just as Wen Ying was planning to find a way to go in and take a look, the door opened, and she saw Aunt Zhang, who looked obviously very tired.
But when he saw Wen Ying, a flash of joy crossed his face, "Xiao Ying, what brings you here?"
"Auntie, how are you and Uncle? I was planning to go to the grocery store, but it was closed, so I came over to check on you and Uncle."
"Come in quickly."
Aunt Zhang, despite her exhaustion, tried to get up to pour some water, but Wen Ying stopped her.
"Auntie, you and Uncle must be so tired because of Grandpa's situation. You don't need to keep busy. I came to see you and Uncle also because of this matter."
"Xiao Ying, this matter has nothing to do with you. The old man's affairs are our affairs. You've already helped us enough," Aunt Zhang said, knowing that if Wen Ying were to help them, it might take a considerable toll on her.
But little Ying is still so young, with a bright future and life ahead of her. How could she be like those of us who are already getting on in years?
"Auntie, you and Uncle have always been there for me, treating me like family. Do you not consider me family anymore?" Wen Ying said as she took out the transparent soft box.
"This is the medicine I brought for you and Uncle. If you trust me, you can take it now."
Uncle Zhang probably heard the noise too and came out of the bedroom.
His condition seemed even worse than Aunt Zhang's.
"Xiao Ying, Uncle can't just take your things for free. You must have put a lot into this, right?"
"Uncle, Aunt, if you refuse, I will treat you the same way in the future."
Seeing the resolute expression on Wen Ying's face, Aunt Zhang sighed, "Alright! Since Xiaoying insists, your uncle and I will accept this medicine. It makes me very happy that you consider us family."
Aunt Zhang felt deeply moved. After all, when Wen Ying first arrived, they were still strangers, distrustful of each other, and almost ended up in a ridiculous situation.
Reaching this point today is all because of a term often mentioned online, called mutual effort.
Not only love and friendship require mutual effort, but family bonds do as well.
Watching Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang take their medicine and reminding them to rest well, Wen Ying then left.
At this moment, Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang were lying in bed, feeling somewhat strange.
After leaving Uncle Zhang's house, Wen Ying had not yet returned to the clinic when she received a call from Director Wen.
Director Wen invited Wen Ying to participate in the adventure variety show. His team had already been reassembled, and the previous project processes had all been verified, just waiting to start.
Wen Ying thought about Chao Chao's mother and agreed to meet at the place Director Wen mentioned in three days.
Director Wen wanted to promote it online in advance, and Wen Ying agreed.
Tomorrow is the day when Chaochao's mother can see Chaochao.
Passing by the only hotel on the street, Wen Ying saw Qin Hanyun. Qin Hanyun had bought some food and was carrying a bag upstairs. When he saw Wen Ying, he smiled and greeted her.
"Dr. Wen, thank you. Once the matter with Zhao Zhao's mother is resolved, I will investigate what happened to my sister back then. I won't let any guilty person go unpunished."
Wen Ying nodded and planned to leave.
Qin Hanyun turned around and chased after him, "Dr. Wen, I want to know, will there be any unexpected events tomorrow? Will you be there to help, Dr. Wen?"
"Won't."
Qin Hanyun was somewhat disappointed, but he did not force Wen Ying.
In his eyes, someone as esteemed as Wen Ying probably had meaning in every action, even though he hoped Wen Ying could help, he couldn't force it.
Wen Ying returned to the clinic. Qin Hanyun went upstairs to deliver food to Chaochao's mom, then called his assistant.
The news brought by the assistant made Qin Hanyun directly open Weibo's trending searches.
#Eerie Livestream
Such a simple five-word phrase, yet it made it to the top of the trending list, within the top five!
The eerie live stream, related to Dr. Wen?
Qin Hanyun generally didn't watch live streams, so he didn't know about these things, nor did he know what had happened the previous night.
At this moment, he clicked on the trending topics.
After watching a video uploaded by a netizen, the video seemed... how should I put it, kind of poorly made?
Do snowflakes always appear suddenly?
This feeling is just like an old black-and-white TV from the seventies or eighties, the signal disappears, and the screen is completely covered with static.
So many years have passed, technology has been updated time and again, and yet such problems can still arise?
Unless it was edited and arranged by the person who shot the video themselves.
But as he continued to watch, Qin Hanyun furrowed his brows.
He would watch for a while and also check the comments from the netizens below.
[This video is really poorly recorded! But for some reason, I always feel scared.]
[Like the one upstairs, you're not the first to feel this way. It clearly looks like nothing, so why does it always feel like we're not in the same world?]
[Is this Dr. Wen the same Dr. Wen who is always trending? Doesn't she always livestream her consultations? Did something go wrong with her livestream this time?]
[This kind of streamer is bound to fail; I predicted it long ago. Call me the Truth Emperor!]
[Did the people upstairs forget their brains today? Dr. Wen mess up? Have you guys even watched the live stream before coming here to talk nonsense? I watched the entire live stream from start to finish last night! I just want to tell everyone, this video captured something that humans shouldn't see, so it was taken down!]
"Don't use your own ignorance to guess Dr. Wen's intentions. Anyway, I trust Dr. Wen. If she's doing this, there must be a profound meaning behind it!"
[This thing feels like it's from the underworld, and the worst part is it's intermittent. I just want to say, can't we have something a bit more normal?]
Under the trending search, hundreds of comments popped up in less than a minute. Everyone was discussing the video, with both praise and criticism.
The blogger who posted this video also replied under their own trending post and pinned it: Dr. Wen is right, the things I filmed really do disappear. That world cannot be made public, but at least I have proven its existence! I know many people are doubting me, but there were over eighty thousand viewers in the live stream last night, and they can all vouch for me!
And beneath his pinned reply, countless netizens who had witnessed the scene came forward to testify for him.
But for those who haven't experienced this, it seems utterly absurd.
