Both siblings were injured and fled all the way to the hospital with their mother, Shen Mao'an, their minds still hazy.

Xu Xiuqin lay on the white hospital bed, an IV drip in her hand. The doctor diagnosed it as arrhythmia caused by excessive fright, requiring bed rest. Whether she could recover depended on her own fate.
