Shen Nian walked out of the villa area and headed towards the bus stop. The rain was still heavy, and she could hardly see the road under her feet, walking with uneven steps.

Finally, an hour later, we arrived at the bus stop, and the rain finally stopped.

She glanced at the bus stop sign; the last bus had already departed.

The villa area is quite remote, and there are very few cars. Shen Nian looked around but couldn't find any shared bicycles.

She took out her phone to check the route and found that the nearest subway station was still more than two kilometers away.

Shen Nian decided to walk over and take the subway. The subway runs for a long time, so if she hurried over, she could still catch it.

Shen Nian held her phone, looked at the navigation, and walked towards the subway.

There are streetlights on the main road, making it much easier to walk than before.

Although the rain had stopped, the road was wider, and there were streetlights, Shen Nian didn't walk much faster than before. After all, she had been soaked in the rain for so long, and now the cool breeze made her feel cold and uncomfortable, all wet and uncomfortable.

She couldn't help but hug her arms tightly, as if that would give her some warmth.

Mo Ze and Lu Yan went out together to attend a dinner party hosted by a partner company. After the event, they both had a few drinks and hired a driver to take them home.

The designated driver drove Lu Yan's eye-catching, expensive car very carefully.

He casually asked Mo Ze, who was leaning back in his seat next to him, looking out the window as if he were thinking about something important, "Second Brother, is that girl from last night alright?"

Moze looked out the window without turning around and softly replied, "Mm."

Lu Yan looked at Mo Ze with a gossipy expression, "How come you two are so lucky to run into each other in such a big city like Jiangcheng..."

"Stop the car," Moze suddenly shouted.

The driver was startled and quickly stopped the car.

Before Lu Yan could react, Mo Ze had already opened the car door and jumped out. Lu Yan hurriedly got out of the car and followed him.

Then I saw his usually aloof second brother suddenly stop the car, get out, and grab a girl who was walking on the street...

Lu Xiaowu was stunned, his mouth agape.

Mo Ze never expected to run into Shen Nian here.

While he was in the car, he thought he had misread it.

The clothes Shen Nian was wearing were not the ones he had given her that morning.

Besides, this place isn't close to University A.

There had been a heavy rain earlier, and the area was quite remote. Why was she walking alone on the road?

Moze initially thought he was seeing things.

Until it was confirmed to be her.

Moze immediately told the designated driver to stop the car.

Without thinking, he opened the car door, jumped out, and rushed to Shen Nian's side, grabbing her by the arm.

Because of the way she walks, it looks like she's about to fall down at any moment.

He got closer and noticed that Shen Nian was soaking wet and looked terrible.

"Shen Nian!" Mo Ze called out to her.

Shen Nian turned her head and saw the person who suddenly appeared. She couldn't believe her eyes and thought she was hallucinating. She had just felt a little dizzy and didn't know if she had a fever.

She blinked hard, but the person in front of her was still there.

It wasn't a hallucination after all...

Shen Nian politely smiled and greeted Mo Ze, "Uncle, what a coincidence, what are you doing here too..."

Before Moze could say anything more, the person in front of him closed his eyes and fell straight backward.

Moze caught her quickly and then picked her up.

Lu Yan was still reeling from the shock of seeing his second brother arguing with a woman on the roadside.

Then I saw that the woman actually fell directly into my second brother's arms.

His second brother, who had never been interested in women, actually picked him up in a princess carry.

Lu Yan quickly rushed over as well.

"Second brother, what's going on? Who is this? Do you know him?"

Lu Yan asked a series of questions out of curiosity.

Moze simply replied, "Get in the car first."

Then he carried Shen Nian toward the car.

Lu Yan followed, opened the car door solicitously, and after Mo Ze and Shen Nian got in, he consciously sat in the passenger seat.

Then he turned to Mo Ze and asked, "Second Brother, where are we going now?"

My second brother was supposed to go back with him tonight and stay at his place.

Now I've inexplicably picked up a girl on the road; I can't exactly take her to him, can I?

Mo Ze glanced at Shen Nian, who was standing next to him with her eyes closed and her body burning hot.

Lu Yan followed his gaze to Shen Nian, wondering, "Second Brother definitely knows this woman! But...Second Brother only recently returned to the country, how could he have a woman he doesn't know about by his side?!"

Lu Yan thought and thought, but still couldn't figure out when his second brother had hooked up with a woman!

After a moment of silence, Mo Ze said, "Let's go to the hospital first."

The designated driver turned the car around and drove it to the hospital.

Mo Ze carried the still unconscious Shen Nian to the emergency room.

At this time, Shen Nian had a high fever of 39 degrees Celsius, and the doctor immediately admitted her to the hospital.

After completing the hospital admission procedures, Mo Ze said to Lu Yan, "Xiao Wu, you can go back first. I'll stay at the hospital tonight."

Lu Yan glanced at Shen Nian lying on the hospital bed, then looked at Mo Ze, "Second Brother, who... is this?"

Mo Ze glanced back at Shen Nian, then answered Lu Yan, "The girl from last night."

Lu Xiaowu was shocked once again.

This...this...

What a deep connection!

"You...you...this is truly fate, such a deep connection~" Lu Xiaowu was so shocked that he was almost incoherent.

Then they decided to stop making light bulbs.

He immediately and quickly left.

The ward was extremely quiet.

Shen Nian had an IV drip on the back of her hand; her fever had subsided, but she was still unconscious.

Mo Ze stood silently by the bed for a while before walking over to the small sofa in the ward and sitting down.

He didn't know what had happened to the girl in the bed, or why she had gotten herself into such a sorry state in just one day.

What would she have done if she hadn't run into him and Xiao Wu nearby tonight...?

Did he faint on the road?

What if you encounter someone with ill intentions...

Mo Ze felt inexplicably irritated as he thought about this.

How could a girl be so careless about her safety!

Moze stood up from the sofa again and walked to the bedside.

Looking at Shen Nian's face, which was furrowed even in her sleep, filled with unease, he sighed slightly, almost imperceptibly.

I bent down and pulled the blanket up a bit for her.

Seeing that the saline solution was almost gone, they called the nurse to remove the needle.

Then he returned to the sofa.

Moze sat for a while, but he wasn't sleepy. He leaned back on the sofa, staring at the ceiling, his mind blank.

I just sat there, only managing to doze off for a short while just before dawn...
