After Mo Han finished his call, he opened the door and said to Xia Qingyi, “I need to do something at the law firm, I have to go and get some files from there. I’ll come back later.”

Xia Qingyi nodded her head. “Go, go, it’s fine even if you don’t come back.”

Mo Han said, “Don’t run around the hospital, be obedient and rest on the bed. Just shout for the nurse if your drip is empty. Call the doctor if you feel unwell.”

“I know, I know, you’re so naggy.”

Mo Han gave her a look. “You still have to listen even if I’m naggy.”

Xia Qingyi pouted, and when she looked over again, Mo Han had already closed the door and left.

After he left, Xia Qingyi did not chat with the patient next to her for long. A doctor came to push the patient away for a checkup not long after they had started talking. Xia Qingyi went back to zoning out on her bed.

She felt really bored after sitting for a while, so she waited until the drip was nearly empty and then impatiently stood up to go for a walk.

Her waist started to hurt immediately when she moved. Xia Qingyi pulled up her clothes only to see that a big patch of the back of her waist had formed into a green-purplish bruise, and her stomach area also had a few scratches. She thought back, and realized that they were probably from when the person had kicked her into the pillar.

But Xia Qingyi still got up. She moved her body to the side of the bed with difficulty, and after seeing that her legs did not have any shoes on, she froze. Xia Qingyi could only move her right arm, so she was unable to wear her shoes. In the end, she simply found a pair of slippers by her bed and stepped into them.

Xia Qingyi used a lot of her energy to stand up, and a layer of sweat had formed on her forehead from enduring the pain of her waist. She put her right hand against the wall as support, and walked step by step outside.

There were many people walking along the corridors. It was inevitable that she would be excited after coming into contact with a crowd for the first time since she woke up, so she kept watching the people walk past as she held onto the wall.

Xia Qingyi wanted to walk to the balcony in front to enjoy the wind. The sunlight looked wonderful there, and the air would most likely be cleaner than in here.

She moved in small steps until she reached there. Just as she had expected, basking in the sunlight there made her feel nice and warm, and she could not be any more comfortable. A smile slowly formed on her face, and she started towards the railings to look at the scenery.

However, she saw a huge glass mirror at the side out of the corner of her eyes and stopped in her tracks.

Xia Qingyi turned her head and walked closer towards the glass mirror to take a clear look at herself, and was no longer able to smile.

The small mirror that Mo Han had given her did not show everything. She only saw her pale and haggard face in that small mirror.

But the reflective glass mirror in front of her now let her see the entire top half of her body. She slowly turned her neck to see that there was a series of green-purplish hickeys from her neck to her collarbone, and also traces of bite marks.

Xia Qingyi touched the marks on her own neck, and slid her finger down to her collarbone. Judging from this, there were probably more on her chest.

Xia Qingyi could not bear to keep looking at it.

Mo Han had probably seen it in the patient ward earlier. Xia Qingyi recalled that the patient she talked to had looked at her strangely, and slowly started to understand that the patient had probably seen it as well.

So they had always known about it. They knew what had happened to her, only she herself was acting as though nothing had happened, like a fool.

She wanted to forget what had happened that night, forget the feeling of that man touching her body. So she did not mention anything on purpose, hoping to not let other people know that she had gone through those kind of things.

But in the end, she realized that she was only lying to herself.
