Chapter 500: Nearing Home Brings More Fear

The room, white and gleaming, was filled with a faint smell of disinfectant. Jiang Mingyu, regaining consciousness, slowly opened his eyes, gazing at the lights on the ceiling with some perplexity.

The numbness in his body had subsided considerably, and the pain from the wounds was no longer so pronounced. He felt thirsty but, after glancing at the empty room and the bright call bell, he lay back down.

Forget it, better to endure a bit longer—it's not too good to always bother others.

Just as he was listlessly counting the 17th insect that flew by, the door to the room was opened, and people started to trickle in.

Aside from the clang of the nurse's cart, there were the sounds of shoes scraping the floor. Only then did Jiang Mingyu turn his head.

But the person who came was not the familiar face he expected.

Seeing the puzzlement mixed with nervousness on the other person's face, He Pingzhang revealed his characteristic smile.
