Jiang Yao nodded instinctively but felt like an idiot after doing it. How could Lu Xingzhi see what she just did? She then murmured as a reply.
It was a long silence afterward. She knew, however, that he was not asleep.
"Xingzhi, I will tell you everything once I have figured out how to say it to you. It's just, how should I say it, absurd." Jiang Yao smiled wryly. She did not know if Lu Xingzhi would believe the things about her rebirth, and the Medical System. Moreover, everyone, except Jiang Yao, had been forbidden knowledge about the Medical System.
"I am not in a hurry." He could wait decades for her to reciprocate his love, not to mention a little secret of hers.
Jiang Yao thought that Lu Xingzhi would stay quiet again, before hearing his voice suddenly, beckoning her to come over.
"Let me wear my shoes," she answered. Lu Xingzhi stopped her from turning on the lights. She thought that something was going on, but followed his instruction, nonetheless.
Even in the darkness, her vision was pretty good, for she managed to walk over to Lu Xingzhi's bed without any accidents. She bent over and asked, "What do you want?"
Lu Xingzhi chuckled suddenly. "Nothing, I just want to look at you."
Jiang Yao broke into the widest smile, butterflies fluttered in her stomach.
"See for yourself then." She sat down at the side of his bed and smiled. "Do you want me to turn on the lights?"
