Song Ling struggled to open his eyes, only managing to catch a hazy glimpse of a figure, a woman's silhouette that stirred a sense of familiarity in him.
In that moment, it was as if he saw the legendary doctor who had once saved him.
Overwhelmed with excitement, Song Ling tried to open his eyes wider to clearly see the face of this miraculous healer, but the heaviness of slumber overcame him once more, and he fell back into unconsciousness.
Gu Dai, unaware of Song Ling's changing expressions, had examined him and, finding no internal injuries, only superficial wounds, withdrew her gaze.
Turning her attention to Su Ting, she picked up the iodine from the table and began treating the wounds on his back.
Su Ting's eyes fluttered open weakly as he called out feebly, "Sis... sis..."
Gu Dai, relieved to see Su Ting awake, inquired, "Do you feel discomfort anywhere?"
Shaking his head, Su Ting replied, "I'm fine, just some scratches."
