Yun Li's lashes trembled, then her eyes fluttered open, the monitors' steady beeps gave her awareness.
She turned her gaze toward He Yuchen, who immediately noticed the subtle alertness returning to her face.
"You're awake," he said softly, his hand still covering hers. "How do you feel?"
"Better," she murmured, her voice hoarse.
"Do you need water?" He asked, and she nodded.
He immediately rushed to pour her a glass of water. He placed it close to her lips and carefully fed her the water.
After she was done, she asked, sniffing. "Why was I out and how long was I out for?"
"The doctor had to sedate you because you went into shock after hearing what happened to Yue Ning." He Yuchen explained, then continued. "You were out for three hours."
Yun Li nodded in understanding. Then... silence fell between them.
