Perhaps It Was Not a Delusion

The sound of footsteps came from behind.

Ning Li turned around and saw Shen Zhijin holding the sealed document bag in his hand.

Seeing that Ning Li was looking at the gift in the glass cabinet, he was momentarily stunned, but quickly recovered.

"It's signed."

He handed the thing over.

Ning Li walked over and took it with both hands.

She hesitated for a moment before asking, "Teacher Shen, how has your recovery been like?"

Shen Zhijin smiled faintly.

"I'm almost completely healed. I'll be back to school in two days."

Ning Li heaved a sigh of relief.

"That's good. Then... Teacher Shen, I'll take my leave first, okay?"

Shen Zhijin nodded.

"This has been hard on you."

Ning Li shook her head. "It's not hard, it's my duty."

Then, she placed the sealed document bag into her backpack and walked out of the door.

Shen Zhijin walked her to the door.
