Chapter 123: It's not safe here anymore

Zhou Xuanzhi quietly entered the room, his eyes filled with a mixture of relief and anticipation. His mother lay peacefully on the bed fast asleep.  With a gentle smile, he took a seat beside her, cherishing this moment of calm.

 

Earlier in the day, Zhou Xuanzhi had spoken with the doctors, who had given him the long-awaited good news. After days of demanding tests and consultations, the medical team had confirmed that his mother's body was finally ready for the surgery she needed. It was a ray of hope in the midst of their shared struggle.

 

In recent days, Zhou Xuanzhi found himself completely busy due to his hectic schedule. Balancing his intense training for the upcoming mathematical project while taking care of his mother, he had stopped going back to his dormitory after classes.
