Bai Wanwan slowly opened her eyes, her trembling lashes casting faint shadows on her pale face.
"Mm, I'm okay."
She gave Yan Lie a weak smile, a flicker like a candle flame in the morning light.
Zhu Xiu immediately took her cold hand. The rough pads of his fingers gently rubbed the inside of her wrist, his red-tinged eyes filled with worry.
"Does anywhere else hurt?"
She *was* in pain.
Bai Wanwan felt as if her body had been crushed and then pieced back together. Every bone in her body ached dully.
During the time she was unconscious, it was as if she had battled an army of thousands in her dreams. Even her breathing felt heavy with exhaustion.
"I'm just a little tired."
She managed a smile, but her voice was as light as a feather. "I'll be fine after a little rest."
With that, she closed her eyes.
In the depths of her consciousness, she called out to her system. 'Hua Sheng, check if the toxins in my body have been completely cleared.'
"DING—Scan complete."
