Just as Xi Molin was feeling increasingly agitated, Fang Yinjia suddenly pulled back the curtain and whispered, "There's no point in you staying here. Why don't you go and get busy? We're here anyway."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you. Please contact me anytime if anything comes up..."

She had the same idea, so she got up to leave.

"Okay, I'll watch over her, you can go without worry..."

Fang Yinjia wore a mask, revealing only her curved eyebrows and eyes. Being able to spend some time alone with Shu Xiangyu was simply too wonderful.

After putting on his hat, Xi Molin turned around, but then seemed worried: "Never mind, I'll stay and watch over her. With Zhen Dong overseeing the training, there won't be any problems."

"Oh...you're not leaving again?"

Fang Yinjia was clearly very disappointed.

"You really want to be alone with her?"

Schimerlin saw right through her little scheme.

"In the team, Kui Kui, Qian Ni, and I are probably the ones who like her TV dramas the most... Imagine how you would feel if an actor who is so far away and whom you always think about suddenly appeared next to you?"

Hearing her slightly exaggerated expression of affection for Shu Xiangyu, Xi Molin felt gratified, but also inexplicably felt a bit jealous.

They can openly express their affection for her anytime, anywhere, while she can only pretend not to understand, not care, or not like it.

"I don't have any favorite celebrities..."

She sat back down on the edge of the bed, feeling quite upset.

Fang Yinjia slowly walked over and asked her in a low voice, "Don't you like her? Shu Xiangyu... she's so beautiful, and she's the most popular actress right now. If her fans knew she was here for training, do you believe the camp entrance would be completely blocked tonight..."

Ximerlin remained noncommittal. She never got involved in things related to idol worship, and even when she did it during her school days, it was only to boost her popularity.

Even though almost all her female friends like her now, she's too lazy to try to please them.

Merlin, do you think she's difficult to get along with?

Fang Yinjia lowered her voice even further.

"Yinjia, we can talk about these issues later. Don't disturb her rest. You can go out now..."

She kept going on and on about all sorts of random things, and Ximerlin's patience had completely worn off. He reached out and pushed her.

Fang Yinjia was pushed out, and she couldn't help but feel dissatisfied: "Hmph, I think she's probably easier to get along with than you..."

The curtains were drawn back, and the world finally quieted down.

Shu Xiangyu, who had fainted, frowned and made a few sounds in his throat, finally showing signs of waking up.

Schimerlin leaned down in front of her, his expression tense and worried: "You're awake... How are you feeling? Is anything bothering you?"

The familiar voice was still as warm and pleasant as ever, unique to her, irreplaceable by anyone else, and no longer so indifferent.

Shu Xiangyu broke free from his drowsy state, opened his dark eyes to look at her, and gave a weak smile: "I'm fine, you don't need to worry."

Perhaps realizing that she had lost her composure, Xi Molin avoided looking at her: "You still need to maintain a balanced diet in the future. You can't go on a diet anymore. During this training camp, you're expending a lot of energy every day. You simply can't train like this."

"sorry for bothering you."

The weak and feeble voice evoked pity.

"You... don't need to apologize to me. I'm just worried that with limited time, you won't have enough time to learn many things."

Her concerns were not unfounded, as everyone's mind was rather scattered as the Lunar New Year approached.

The difficulty lies in learning how to be an armed police officer, how to fulfill one's role, and how to make a good film—all of which are things they themselves need to worry about.

"I understand. From now on, I'll eat whatever you tell me to eat, and I'll also work hard to improve my physical fitness. After all, no armed police captain is as thin as me..."

Shu Xiangyu looked down at the red scratches on the back of her hand that was resting on the side of the hospital bed, and unconsciously reached out to touch it.

The moment his fingertips touched her, it felt like a faint electric current, startling Schimerlin so much that he quickly withdrew his hand.

"How...did you get hurt?"

His low, husky voice revealed his concern.

Schimerling raised the back of his hand and realized that he had been scratched without even noticing.

"It's nothing, just a minor cut, not even bleeding."

Seeing that she didn't seem to care, Shu Xiangyu knew that compared to the injuries she usually suffered, it was nothing, so he quietly withdrew his hand.

"So, will I still participate in training these next two days?"

“I’ve been thinking about it. If you’re going to be acting, you’ll probably be training others and won’t be training much yourself. Besides, your health isn’t very good. Why don’t you learn how to be a good captain first?”

Schimerlin tugged at his sleeve, covering the back of his hand.

"Okay, whatever you say... I want to sleep a little longer, you should rest too."

As drowsiness washed over him, Shu Xiangyu closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing that she was asleep, the turmoil that had been stirred within Xi Molin gradually subsided, and he got up to gently tuck the blanket around her.

Looking up, she saw that the IV drip was almost finished, so she went out to tell Yinjia what was going on, gave her a few more instructions, and then left the medical team.

Inside the camp, the officers and soldiers are currently conducting their daily training.

When Shu Xiangyu woke up, it was already dark. The IV drip had finished, and there was still tape stuck to the back of her hand.

Not seeing Momo, she felt a little disappointed. When she struggled to sit up, she still felt dizzy.

Fang Yinjia happened to have just taken off her nurse's uniform and came over to check on her. Seeing that she was awake, she turned on the light and smiled gently, "How are you feeling? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"

Shu Xiangyu's hair was tied up in a slightly messy bun, and her face remained pale.

"Nothing else is wrong, I'm just a little dizzy."

"You should eat more in the future, eat more nutritious food. Low blood sugar, low blood pressure, and low blood potassium are very dangerous."

Fang Yinjia kindly persuaded her and then helped her up to put on her shoes.

"Thanks…"

"It's alright, this is just our job. You have no idea how scared everyone was when you fainted on the playground today."

Shu Xiangyu put on his shoes, leaned against the bed railing, his eyes deep and unfathomable, and asked her softly, "Then who... sent me here?"

Although she already knew the answer in her heart, she still wanted to know if her mother cared about her back then.

"Merlin, she was like a gust of wind, she picked you up and ran to the medical team in such a hurry that she didn't even have time to let me check on you. She was running so fast that I could hardly keep up with her."

Fang Yinjia described the situation to her without exaggeration.

It turns out she was still worried about herself...

Seeing that she didn't speak, Fang Yinjia asked her softly, "Are you hungry? I'll take you to the cafeteria to get something to eat..."

"Well, thank you."

Shu Xiangyu steadied herself and stepped out of the ward when she saw Xi Molin walking towards her.

"You're awake. Are you alright?"

This time, she didn't hide much, perhaps afraid that she was weak and might fall. She came to her side, supported her arm, and helped her up.
