Ji Yi's eyelashes quivered. She wanted to open her eyes, but before she could, she fainted completely. The final second before she lost consciousness, she vaguely heard, "Dr. Zhu? Come to my place immediately..."

When Ji Yi woke up again, she was no longer on the dark, ice-cold street but under the covers on a soft, warm bed.
