Song Luli and Long Jie searched for Han Ru's hospital room, finding him in a large private suite with a lavish bed, furnished seats, and heavy curtains. 

Han Ru was resting peacefully on his bed, when he lifted his head slightly, noticing that he had visitors. His eyes widened slightly, not expecting to have anyone come. 

Song Luli noticed there weren't any flowers, no get well cards, nothing. No one else had come for him. 

She stepped closer, and Long Jie stayed behind watching. 

"I—" she began to say. "I wanted to see how you were doing." 

His expression softened, and it dawned on her just how gentle he could be when he's not filled with rage or anger. 

"I'm well, thank you," he replied hoarsely, looking down. "How are you, Luli?"

"I'm okay," she said, not knowing how else to continue the conversation.

Han Ru glanced at the windows that looked into a garden courtyard. "Can you help me up?" he asked her.
