Stars In His Eyes

For He Zhilan, Bono and the rest’s arrival was like salvation. It wasn’t until this moment that she finally relaxed her clenched jaw, her vision going black as she collapsed into He Da’s arms. With her world spinning and blackness encroaching, she reached out and groped for Lihua’s hand, barely whispering, "Lihua, protect my brother. The beggar is my long-lost brother. Keep him safe."

After uttering these words, He Zhilan lost consciousness.

"Zhilan! Zhilan!" He Da, seeing Zhilan motionless in his arms, was panic-stricken. "Wake up, Zhilan, I’m okay."

"Leave some people here to wait for the police, and the rest come with me to take He Zhilan and her brother to the hospital!" Bono shouted, then he immediately picked Zhilan up and hailed down a taxi to the hospital. He urged the others to carry He Da into the vehicle and they all made a beeline for the hospital.

The sudden reveal that the beggar was He Zhilan’s long-lost brother baffled Bono and the others. Fortunately, after being admitted to the hospital, He Zhilan was found to be in no immediate danger. However, she did have internal injuries, the most severe one being on her back, where her blood had mixed with her clothes. The image of the nurses cutting open He Zhilan’s clothes and revealing her gruesome wound was so terrifying that Lihua didn’t even have the courage to look at it for a second time.

Concerned about He Zhilan’s injuries, He Da managed to hold up, only retiring to his hospital room after it was confirmed that Zhilan’s life was not in danger.

For He Da, everything that happened this night felt like a dream.

He was saved and he could finally return to the home he had been longing for.
