Night descended, the room was pitch black, so dark that one couldn't see their hand in front of their face.
Li Xiaoning had been afraid of the dark since childhood, and the silent darkness felt like a whirlpool in the deep sea, causing her to feel instinctive fear.
She wanted to get up and turn on the light, but it was impossible.
Although her vital signs had stabilized after receiving plasma, and her condition had improved significantly.
But her limbs still lacked strength, and her body felt like it had turned into a non-Newtonian fluid, collapsing on the sofa.
Just as she sighed, the door creaked open, followed by a click as someone turned on the light, the bright light dispelling the darkness of the room and dissipating the unease in her heart.
"Brother Lu?" Li Xiaoning's charming face showed joy, the heavy stone in her heart finally settled.
"Yes."
Lu Xun nodded lightly, walked over, placed the money box on the table, and said to her, "I've got the money back."
