Chu Jiujiu hesitated for a moment, then gently pulled her hand away from Ou Jin's grip.
"I don't want to keep repeating things you already know. I'm not Shen Mu," she said.
She wasn't Shen Mu. There was nothing in Bin Hai City that she was attached to. Her home was on K Island.
Ou Jin watched Chu Jiujiu's retreating figure and felt a dull pain in his heart.
In the hospital room, Huo Yunxiao sat by Shen Mu's bedside, his eyes fixed on her without blinking.
Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, Shen Mu's face was as pale as semi-transparent paper, as if she could disappear at any moment.
She wore an oxygen mask to help her breathe, and her hand was connected to a heart monitor.
It was a strange scene. Shen Mu looked fine, but the machines around her made it seem as if she was already at death's door.
Ou Jin explained that just in case, if Shen Mu's heart stopped beating like it did last time, they needed to be able to detect it immediately.
