Chapter 218: Chapter 218: What Canât I See?
Li Huan looked at Lin Zhiyi with a somewhat guilty expression, opened his mouth but didnât know what to say.
Lin Zhiyi, in an effort to relieve the awkwardness, took the initiative and said, "Doctor Li, I twisted my ankle. Could you check if the swelling can be reduced quickly? I have a very important press conference to attend tomorrow."
Upon hearing that Lin Zhiyi was still willing to trust him, Li Huan nodded vigorously, "Donât worry, leave it to me."
While examining her, Li Huan babbled on with many cautions.
Finally, he looked at Lin Zhiyi with care and said, "Lin Zhiyi, Iâm sorry."
Lin Zhiyi consoled him, "Itâs not your fault, donât think too much about it."
After getting her response, Li Huan didnât make any more fuss and applied ice to Lin Zhiyiâs ankle before prescribing an ointment patch.
When Chen Jin went to get the medicine, Li Huan made tea for Gong Chen and Lin Zhiyi.
Li Huan reverted to his usual self and casually asked Gong Chen while pouring tea, "Has your sleep improved recently? Are you still dreaming about that little girl?"
Lin Zhiyiâs hand, which was about to lift the cup, paused, "What little girl?"
At that, Li Huan realized that Gong Chen had not told Lin Zhiyi about the dreams with the little girl and unconsciously looked towards Gong Chen.
Gong Chen continued to drink his tea nonchalantly, without any intention of stopping the conversation, signaling to Li Huan he understood Gong Chenâs intention.
He chuckled and said, "Lately youâve been getting into accidents, and he keeps dreaming of a little girl who insists on saving you, even hinting at lots of details. And the thing is, this little girl looks remarkably like she could be you twoâs child."
Clang.
Lin Zhiyiâs tea cup toppled onto the table, spilling the tea.
Itâs Xingxing!
Just thinking of her daughter caused a pang in her heart.
But as soon as she felt the scrutinizing gaze at her side, she quickly bowed her head to tidy up, "Sorry, my hand slipped."
"Donât you find it strange?" Gong Chen seemed calm sipping his tea, but his question cut to the heart.
Lin Zhiyiâs head was down, wiping the table, her mind whirring fast.
"I get it!" she suddenly looked up to explain, "Iâve heard the elderly say before, this is called a precognitive dream, itâs really just overthinking, ignoring some already known information, so thatâs why this kind of dream happens."
Her heart was in her throat as she talked.
Around Gong Chen, she always felt she couldnât keep anything hidden, yet the matter of being reborn, telling anyone would make them disbelieve.
"Itâs not possible, I also..." had dreamed about that little girl.
"Indeed, dreams canât be taken as facts."
Before Li Huan could finish speaking, Gong Chen interrupted with a cold voice.
They exchanged a glance, and Li Huan also nodded in agreement.
Lin Zhiyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Li Huan, "Doctor Li, what were you about to say?"
"I... I said Iâve had those kind of dreams too," Li Huan quickly changed the subject, half-jokingly adding, "Third Young Master, even your dreams project you twoâs child, youâve even decided on the childâs gender, arenât you thinking a bit too much?"
"Pfft."
Lin Zhiyi almost sprayed out her tea.
An insightful gaze came from her side, as if trying to see right through her.
A few seconds later, Gong Chen set down his tea cup and said indifferently, "A daughter sounds nice."
Li Huan poured him a bit more tea, "Have some tea to clear your head, donât just dream, focus on something real, strive for this year..."
Lin Zhiyi cut him off quickly, "Doctor Li, todayâs the last day of the year, who could manage to have a child overnight?"
Li Huan clicked his tongue, "Look at that, youâve denied the date but not the idea of having children."
Gong Chen nodded as if taking the matter seriously.
"..."
Lin Zhiyi then realized sheâd been played by the two of them.
Just then, Chen Jin returned with the ointment.
Li Huan applied the ointment for her and stood up, "Iâm going to make rounds in the wards, you two take your time drinking."
When Li Huan left, the office suddenly became quiet.
Lin Zhiyi felt so awkward she wanted to use the restroom, and her stomach was also feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
Too embarrassed to say it outright, she set her cup down, "Iâm not drinking anymore, I should head back now."
Unexpectedly, Gong Chen put down his cup and stood up too.
"Letâs go, Iâll walk you back."
"No need, Iâve improved a lot already."
While speaking, Lin Zhiyi subconsciously tugged at her pants.
As soon as she had stood up, she felt a flooding sensation; she knew her period had started.
Gong Chen glanced at her, "Iâll call a nurse to bring a wheelchair and take you to the restroom."
"Okay."
Lin Zhiyi was inwardly relieved he hadnât noticed anything.
After she got into the wheelchair, she didnât let the nurse accompany her, as they were quite busy too.
So, she borrowed a sanitary pad and went to the restroom on her own.
To prevent falling, she wheeled herself into the disabled stall.
Unexpectedly, there was someone inside.
Just as she thought about moving to another stall, the woman inside let out a soft voice.
"Hello, excuse me, do you have a sanitary pad? I have trouble moving my legs."
It was apparent that the woman was truly embarrassed.
From under the stall door, Lin Zhiyi could see the wheels of an electric wheelchair, confirming the other party did indeed have a disability.
She looked down at the sanitary pad in her hand, thinking that she usually didnât bleed much on the first day, and it should be enough to last her until she got back.
So, she passed the sanitary pad inside: "Here you go."
The woman expressed her gratitude: "Thank you, otherwise it would have been really embarrassing for me."
"Itâs fine."
After speaking, Lin Zhiyi stood up from the wheelchair, leaned against the door of the next stall, and hobbled in.
In a little while, the sound of the electric wheelchair leaving could be heard outside.
When Lin Zhiyi came out, she found 100 dollars on her wheelchair.
Wow.
Just for a sanitary pad, why give so much?
Lin Zhiyi was just contemplating returning the money, when suddenly her lower abdomen started to hurt, and she leaned on the wheelchair for a long time, unable to recover.
A young nurse rushed in: "Are you okay? Third Young Master asked me to give this to you."
Lin Zhiyi opened the cartoon bag in front of her.
Inside were several brands of sanitary pads.
He noticed?
"Thank you." After expressing her thanks, Lin Zhiyi returned to the stall and quickly used the sanitary pad.
When she went out, Gong Chen was waiting for her in the hallway.
"Why is your face so pale?"
"Miss Lin probably has menstrual pain; when I went in, she was in so much pain she couldnât even stand up straight."
The young nurse said, giving Lin Zhiyi a look that said, âno need to thank me.â
Lin Zhiyi felt even more embarrassed.
Coming back to her senses, she now wore a coat, and before she knew it, Gong Chen had picked her up.
She shifted slightly: "This will get your clothes dirty."
"Clothes are not important."
Holding her in his arms, Gong Chen turned to leave.
Just before they left, Lin Zhiyi looked around.
"Looking for something?"
"Nothing."
Lin Zhiyi shook her head and stuffed the 100 dollars into her bag.
The two of them took the elevator to leave, and an electric wheelchair slowly rolled out from the clinic.
As it passed by the young nurse, a soft voice asked, "Hello, have you seen a woman in a wheelchair coming out of the restroom like me?"
The nurse thought for a moment: "She left."
The woman nodded, without saying anything more.
She had just been notified by the driver that it was her turn, and she hadnât had the chance to thank the person face to face.
Well, maybe they would meet again if it was meant to be.

Apartment.
As soon as Lin Zhiyi entered, she suddenly remembered something and immediately turned to block Gong Chenâs way.
"Uncle, I want to rest now, so I wonât keep you. You can go back."
"Lin Zhiyi, your talent for being ungrateful after getting what you want is getting better and better. Or is there something I shouldnât see?"
"..."
Lin Zhiyi was stunned, how could he have guessed right again.
Gong Chen half-closed his eyes: "I shouldnât see?"
Lin Zhiyi was about to explain but he quickly noticed something on the sofa with his sharp eyes.
"Donât look!"
