This dream felt unusually long. She and Gong Xize were entangled with each other—he was taking drugs, and she was desperately trying to stop him. The two of them were pushing and shoving...
After a long while, a sharp pain woke her up from the dream.
She opened her eyes, and the light was rather glaring.
In her line of sight was a person in a white lab coat administering an injection.
It was her own bedroom, but the air was filled with the scent of medicinal chemicals.
A floor lamp gave off a soft glow, and the bedroom was very quiet—so quiet that only the faint footsteps of the doctor could be heard.
"What happened to me?"
She reached out and grabbed the doctor's sleeve. The doctor looked at her briefly and was about to speak.
A cold voice rang out, "You may leave now!"
The doctor glanced at her again. "Apologies, ma'am!"
With that, he bowed his head and retreated from the room.
Silence returned to the room once more.
