The lady doctor waited for a few moments for anesthesia to take effct after injecting Mo Roulan's leg.
At this moment, The door of the ICU room opened and Fang Zhihan stepped out.
He looked around and seeing Chu Feng standing a few steps away, he walked towards him.
"Chu Feng, go to the opened pharmacy on the fourth flooe and bring back these few syrups."
He passed a list to Chu Feng. However, when he saw Chu Feng not reacting at all, he followed the young assistant's gaze.
Fang Zhihan was surely startled when he saw that Mo Roulan was still sitting at the same place she was sitting before he had entered the ICU room.
It had taken him a great effort in taking Mo Chen inside the room and leaving Mo Roulan outside as Mo Roulan was not ready to leave Mo Chen after they got down from the helicopter.
The most confusing thing for him was that the girl continued to ask him to promise her that he would not do any harm to Mo Chen.
Before he had thought that it was just because of Mo Roulan's trauma over everything that happened to Mo Chen.
But now Fang Zhihan didn't think the same way any longer because he had seen the real fear and panic in Mo Roulan's eyes when he was taking Mo Chen inside the ICU room as if he was more scary than Zhu family for her.
When he moved his eyes to Mo Roulan's right side, Fang Zhihan finally understood why Chu Feng looked so dazed.
However, he was not surprised at all as he saw He Jian holding Mo Roulan so closely. The strange thing was not him holding Mo Roulan like this but the strange thing was the change in his eyes.
He could see the concern, relief, and at the same time his tight but gentle hold around Mo Roulan.
Perhaps this time, he had finally understood what Mo Roulan actually meant to him.
Fang Zhihan thought inside his heart and turned around to look at Chu Feng again.
"Chu Feng"
Fang Zhihan called quite loudly this time and Chu Feng finally came out of his trance.
Fang Zhihan repeated what he had said earlier. After Chu Feng left to bring whatever he had asked him to, he turned around to go back inside the ICU room.
Before going inside, he glanced at He Jian for the last time but the man seemed to be busy with his girl to pay attention to his dear friend.
Fang Zhihan sighed and went inside the ICU room.

Ten minutes later when Chu Feng returned and gave all the medicines and syrups to Fang Zhihan, He Jian finally noticed him.
The lady doctor had now left. Before leaving, she applied some ointment over Mo Roulan's scratches and then asked He Jian to make Mo Roulan eat something.
He Jian's arm was still around Mo Roulan's shoulder as he signed Chu Feng to come closer.
"Bring some light food and water for Lanlan."
He Jian said as he looked at Mo Roulan's pale face and dry lips. With his other hand, he put her hair behind her ear and turned around to look at Chu Feng when he sensed that his assistant has not moved yet from his place.
"What?"
He asked Chu Feng coldly and Chu Feng immediately came out of his trance.
"Yes, Boss."
Saying this, Chu Feng left to bring some food for Mo Roulan as He Jian had asked him. He was surely baffled to see this gentle side of his boss.
Although he had seen He Jian treating Mo Roulan different way before too, at this moment, it seemed to be more than before.
It almost seemed the way a man would treat his woman.
Chu Feng shook his head as he stepped inside the elevator telling himself that he should keep his behavior in check not to anger his boss and fire him from the job.
Chu Feng brought some delicious food. However, Mo Roulan ate nothing.
When He Jian tried to feed her much to Chu Feng's shock again, she turned her head away and looked at him blankly for a few moments.
Sighing, He Jian put down the bowl of soup in his hands and held Mo Roulan's face in between his palms. He made her look into his eyes and caressed her cheek gently as he said to her
"Lanlan…Mo Chen is fine. Look at me…"
He said when he saw her trying to look away again with blank eyes.
"He needs you. He is just a child and all of this will not be less traumatic for him. You can't shut everything out just like this."
"Are not you my strong Lanlan?"
He whispered gently as if he was talking to a child.
He Jian felt relieved when he saw a little bit of understanding in Mo Roulan's eyes. He saw how her eyes went teary slowly and slowly and a tear rolled down her eyes.
His heart hurt to see her tears but at the same time, he thought that it was better. He would be there to wipe her tears if she will cry but he was clueless about what he would do to comfort her if she would shut everything out.
His arms immediately surrounded her and he stroked her head gently as she silently cried. Her shoulder shook slightly every few seconds.
Mo Roulan's eyes were closed.
Her own cries rang in her ear from the time she had cried when she had got to know about her brother's death.
At that time also, she had wanted someone to comfort her like that.
She had wanted someone to tell her that she was not at fault even though she knew she was at fault for trusting Zhu family with her brother.
She should have kept her brother with herself. Though he was hungry sometimes and slept with an empty stomach, though they were bullied sometimes by the other children…she was at least there to save him.
However, in Zhu family when they dig out his heart from his chest, there was no one to save him there.
How helpless he must have been at that time!
He must have hated her wholeheartedly, right?
"I am so sorry, Chenchen…"
Only these few words came out of Mo Roulan's mouth as she shed all the tears of pain from her past life.
