Hearing Xia Xin's doubts, the system explained.

The reason you slept for so long this time is that you experienced backlash from being prematurely awakened during the use of the Enchanted Puppet, causing excessive fatigue. Furthermore, if your attributes continue to improve, energy consumption will gradually decrease.

Xia Xin still had questions, but Zhao Nan returned after completing the statement at the police station.

Seeing Xia Xin awake, Zhao Nan walked happily to her bedside, her eyes welling up with tears, and said, “You slept for so long, you scared me.”

Xia Xin's throat was a bit dry, and her voice sounded slightly hoarse. She said, “It's okay, it's just that fighting took too much energy.”

The police officer from the station entered after Zhao Nan left. “Miss Xia, now that you're awake, we'd like to ask you some questions if you're willing.”

“Sure.” Xia Xin had Zhao Nan help her sit up so she could answer their questions.

After the officer briefly understood the situation and left, Xia Xin immediately inquired about Layle's condition.

Zhao Nan said, “Layle's condition is a bit critical. The kick from Zhang Liang was too strong, and it injured its liver directly. Fortunately, it was brought to the hospital in time, and the doctor performed surgery immediately. It's in the ward now. Layle should be in pain, but it can't make any noise since it doesn't have a tongue.”

Worried about Layle, and since she was awake and her body was fine, Xia Xin went through the discharge procedures and then went to see Layle.

Layle lay on the hospital bed. When it saw Xia Xin, it weakly opened its eyes and even extended its front paw to place it on Xia Xin's palm. It had just undergone surgery, and the blood on its abdomen mixed with dark fur had coagulated into scabs. Every breath pulled at the wound, causing it great discomfort.

Xia Xin tenderly stroked Layle's head. She didn't know if it was her imagination, but she felt that every time she touched Layle, it seemed to become more comfortable. Even its breathing seemed stronger.

However, that effect only lasted a few times. After a few strokes, it had no more effect.

After asking the nurse, Xia Xin learned that Layle would need to be observed in the hospital for at least another week. Then, Xia Xin and Zhao Nan left the hospital.

Since it was Monday tomorrow, Zhao Nan had to go to work. Xia Xin originally wanted to take her home, but Zhao Nan said she wanted Xia Xin to stay overnight with her. After experiencing the incident with Zhang Liang, Zhao Nan was somewhat fearful and didn't want to be alone.

At night, the two of them lay on the bed. Xia Xin had slept for so long and she couldn't fall asleep now. Zhao Nan was still shaken and couldn't sleep either.

Moonlight streamed through the window and cast a faint light into the dark room. Zhao Nan sat up, hugging her knees, and whispered, “Xia Xin, are you having trouble sleeping too?”

Xia Xin also sat up, and Zhao Nan leaned her head on Xia Xin's shoulder. Zhao Nan asked, “Do you think I'm stupid? You advised me so many times, but I didn't listen to you. I got into a relationship with Zhang Liang and things got to this point today.”

Xia Xin also felt somewhat guilty. If she had known that Zhang Liang was so extreme, she wouldn't have let Zhao Nan know the truth in this way. She feared that Zhao Nan would have psychological traumas when looking for a partner in the future.

“Zhao Nan, this is the scum's fault. How can you blame yourself?” Xia Xin said.

Zhao Nan forced a bitter smile, tears flowed from her eyes, sliding into the neckline of Xia Xin's clothes. Zhao Nan said, “Actually, I didn't like Zhang Liang that much. I always felt strange when I was with him. Many of his demands made me want to refuse, but I still dated him. On one hand, he fooled me, and I didn't know how to refuse. On the other hand, I wanted to prove you were wrong because you didn't approve of us being together.”

Xia Xin said, “I should have communicated with you earlier.”

Zhao Nan sniffed and said, “You were doing it for my own good, that's why you didn't tell me those things. I know Zhang Liang is terrible, but I didn't expect his character to be this bad. I always evaded accepting the fact that he wasn't good because I didn't want to admit that I had bad judgment. Many things between us happened because we never tried to solve them properly, which made things get worse and worse.”

After this incident, Xia Xin felt like Zhao Nan had grown up in an instant. The previous Zhao Nan definitely wouldn't have been able to say these things..
