As Jin Jin walked with Jian Yiling, she attempted to comfort her: “Don’t be too anxious. There’s no hurdle that you can’t get through in life. Just now, I lost my phone and lost a bunch of my possessions. However, I feel as though it’s still better than the time my parents left me. Life is alright.”

Then, Jin Jin continued to say: “There are pitfalls and holes everywhere in life. After you climb out of one, there will always be another one. Life is full of these things. However, you still need to get through them. Honestly speaking, I’m kind of jealous of you. You still have someone there that means a lot to you.”

“Thank you,” Jian Yiling said to Jin Jin. She was grateful for her words.

“Walk slowly. It will hurt,” Jin Jin said. She couldn’t help but frown.

“It doesn’t hurt.”

Upon hearing this response, Jin Jin could only shake her head.

Jin Jin’s words were right. This was a difficult road to walk. As Jian Yiling was wounded and Jin Jin’s clothes did not fit her well, every step she took was painful.

However, Jian Yiling did not stop for a single moment.

Instead, she walked faster and faster.

When Jin Jin walked this journey herself, she would typically take around thirty minutes. Today, they took thirty-five minutes.

In the village health center, Dr. Zhang had no patients at this time.

Dr. Zhang was a beautiful woman in her late twenties. She just graduated from medical school. And thus, she volunteered to be a doctor at Jinshui Village.

When Dr. Zhang saw Jian Yiling, her face was filled with surprise: “Why did you bring her here? She might have a bone fracture. She shouldn’t be walking around.”

“You didn’t tell me about this earlier on.”

“That’s because I couldn’t confirm it. I can’t take X-rays here. However, I did instruct you to make sure she lies down. I planned to take her into town to get some X-rays.”

Then, Dr. Zhang turned around and asked Jian Yiling: “Do your bones not hurt?”

Jian Yiling did not reply to Dr. Zhang’s question. Instead, she anxiously asked to borrow her phone: “Could I borrow your mobile phone? I want to contact my family.”

Dr. Zhang sighed before she took out her phone and gave it to Jian Yiling: “I know you must be worried about your family. However, you should take care of your own body. If something happens to you, the injury may plague you for your entire life.”

After receiving the phone, Jian Yiling instantly dialed Li Zhuojia’s number.

This was because she had a simple relationship with Li Zhuojia. Compared to other individuals, his reaction would be smaller.

When the phone connected, Li Zhuojia was stunned to hear Jian Yiling’s voice.

After a while, he began to cry.

Jian Yiling had to wait for a while before Li Zhuojia finally calmed down. Then, she began to ask about Zhai Yunsheng’s condition.

When he heard Jian Yiling mention Zhai Yunsheng, Li Zhuojia went silent.

“What’s… Wrong with him?” Jian Yiling asked. Her voice was trembling uncontrollably.

“Dean, don’t worry. Mr. Zhai is still alive. It’s just that his condition isn’t that great…”

Jian Yiling’s grip on the phone tightened as she asked: “Can you come over immediately?”

“Of course! Of course, I can come over immediately! Send me your current address!”

“Is Brother Yunmo on the island?”

“Yep, he’s here. I will tell him about this! He will definitely be overjoyed! During these two years, he’s changed quite a bit. He…”

Li Zhuojia walked over to Jian Yunmo’s laboratory as he spoke to Jian Yiling about her brother.

After Jian Yiling’s disappearance, Jian Yunmo never left Lahaisen Island.

After all, his sister went missing on the way here. He firmly believed that she would find her way back here.

And thus, Jian Yunmo shut himself in the laboratory.. During some days, he would forget to eat and refuse to sleep.
