Shen Xi did not know why Guan Lei was suddenly willing to receive treatment, but it was a good thing he agreed.

Maybe she would not need to return to the observation room if Guan Lei's condition improved. That way, their relationship would return to being classmates, nothing more and nothing less.

Shen Xi silently changed into her pajamas and lay in bed, dazed.

Guan Lei knew that Shen Xi was unhappy, but he could not understand why. Why was she still unhappy despite him agreeing to go for treatment?

Joy bloomed in his heart as he clasped Shen Xi's soft little hand.

Guan Lei seemed to have recovered much of his charm after a few good days of sleep.
