Give Me Another Smile

oesn't your throat hurt?”

“…Okay.”

Yin Zhao-an stopped speaking and quietly scrutinized the person she had not seen for a long time.

Tang Yu's right ear was currently covered with gauze, so Yin Zhao-an couldn't see how much of it had healed.
The face that originally had some baby fat left had thinned and sharpened, and the originally rosy complexion had also turned sallow.

“You've lost weight.”

Yin Zhao-an's abrupt comment stunned Tang Yu.
Once Tang Yu reacted to those words, she looked deeply at a certain ignorant person.
Then, after a mental struggle, she eventually chose to be kind, mentally telling herself, Let it be.
She just woke up, so be nice to her.

For a moment there, Tang Yu had a strong urge to put a mirror in front of Yin Zhao-an and let the latter take a good look at who exactly among them had lost weight.

…

The news of Yin Zhao-an regaining consciousness relieved everyone's hearts.
Gao Rang came to check on Yin Zhao-an's vitals several more times throughout the day, the results always leaving him with a satisfied and relaxed expression.

When night arrived, Tang Yu slept in Yin Zhao-an's ward at Wang Zhen's request.
It was a small request that she didn't mind fulfilling.
After all, it made no difference whether she slept in her ward or Yin Zhao-an's ward.
Both were hospital wards.

Wang Zhen could tell that in her daughter's eyes, Tang Yu was more important than anything else, and she couldn't help but wonder when this had started.
It wasn't very often her daughter would mention Tang Yu at home.
So, how did the relationship between the two girls develop to such an extent?

Or was it because she didn't understand the way young people got along nowadays?

Wang Zhen sighed helplessly.
As a mother, she wished her child would be more selfish.
After all, she only had one child.
She honestly didn't know how she would face reality if she lost her child.

Although Yin Zhao-an didn't ask Tang Yu to stay, her thoughts were obvious to Wang Zhen.
So, Wang Zhen decided to help her daughter out and asked Tang Yu to stay over.

In the meantime, Yu Wanrou had already started to prepare to have Tang Yu discharged from the hospital.
Before actually bringing her daughter home, though, she decided to renovate their whole house.
She also decided to throw away all of Tang Yu's old clothing.

She wasn't doing so because of outdated superstitions.
Instead, she did it as a form of psychological comfort.
Otherwise, the furnishings at home would become a constant reminder of how she had left home that day and how she had returned afterward.

So, after helping Tang Yu bathe and change into a fresh set of clothes, Yu Wanrou left the hospital, saying that she needed to make a trip home and that Tang Yu might need to sleep by herself at night.

Yu Wanrou also informed Wang Zhen of her plans in advance and requested she take her daughter in should her daughter be afraid to sleep alone.

Wang Zhen naturally agreed to the request since she had already invited Tang Yu to sleep at Yin Zhao-an's ward.

Of everyone involved in this situation, Yin Zhao-an was naturally the most delighted by this arrangement.
After all, the first person she would get to see after waking up would be her Tang-Tang.

Unfortunately, Yin Zhao-an had no idea that her Tang-Tang would soon be leaving the hospital.
