In that special ward of the hospital.

Liu Zixuan and Wei Lao appeared at the door together. Looking at the bodyguard who came out to meet them, he asked, "How is it?"

"Her mood is a bit unstable, but my lady said if Dr. Liu is here, he can go in," the bodyguard said.

Liu Zixuan said, "Wei Lao, prepare two medium-rare steaks for me, and also add a portion of fresh cherries."

"Didn't have breakfast?" Wei Lao asked.

"No, this is prepared for the patient," Liu Zixuan said with a smile.

Wei Lao nodded knowingly, then went out with the bodyguard to prepare it.

Meanwhile, Liu Zixuan entered the ward, closed the door, and sat beside the bed.

The patient's face was still obscured by gauze, making it unclear.

"Have you thought it over?" Liu Zixuan asked, getting straight to the point.

"I'm not sure if I've decided, it just feels like many things can't be expressed in words," said the female patient inside.

"Then I'll teach you a move, but it depends on whether you'll cooperate!" Liu Zixuan thought for a moment and said.

"What move?" It was obvious the female patient had great trust in Liu Zixuan because he had seen through her emotional struggles just upon entering yesterday!

"I've prepared breakfast for you, it'll be here soon. For now, get up and freshen up a bit, change your clothes. After breakfast, I'll take you somewhere," Liu Zixuan said with a smile.

"Is my body up for it?"

"With me here, don't worry!"

"Alright then, please step out for a moment so I can change," the female patient said.

A special patient needs a special treatment.

There's no direct medicine to cure emotional struggles, so external factors are needed to guide the patient.

And Liu Zixuan was going to break the conventions, using his unique methods to treat this unique patient!

Soon after walking out of the ward, a voice came from inside: "Dr. Liu, you can come in now!"

Liu Zixuan went back in, only to be slightly surprised!

He had suspected the patient was a beauty, but he didn't expect her to be such a stunning beauty.

She stood about one meter seventy, slim yet shapely, with a cascade of silky hair casually draped over her shoulders, appearing fresh and refined.

Underneath a snug little dress were those shapely long legs encased in a pair of green shoes, like a noble Princess!

However, this wasn't what attracted Liu Zixuan; there was a familiar feeling in this beautiful patient's demeanor!

He frowned and asked, "What's your name, beautiful?"

"You can call me Qingning, Dr. Liu," said the beautiful patient.

Qingning?

Liu Zixuan raised an eyebrow. The more he looked at Qingning, the more familiar she seemed, but he couldn't figure out why.

"Have we met before?" he couldn't help but ask.

Qingning paused: "Why would Dr. Liu ask that?"

"I feel like I've seen you before," Liu Zixuan scratched his head and said.

"Hehe!" Qingning laughed lightly; "I have a common face; many people say it's familiar!" secretly thinking that this Dr. Liu wasn't trying to flirt with the usual cliché, was he?

"No, I mean a different kind of familiar," Liu Zixuan said seriously.

"But I've never been up north before, and I haven't met Dr. Liu," Qingning replied.

Liu Zixuan shook his head: "Maybe I'm overthinking it."

At this moment, Wei Lao had already brought the steak and cherries over to Liu Zixuan.

"Eat, and after having something, I'll take you somewhere," Liu Zixuan said.

Qingning glanced at the steak and cherries, sat down, and began to eat.

Liu Zixuan sat beside, watching Qingning's graceful movements, becoming even more puzzled, where exactly was she familiar from?

Yet, he clearly remembered he hadn't met a girl like her before.

"Thanks for the breakfast," Qingning set down the utensils, smiling at Liu Zixuan.

Liu Zixuan snapped out of his thoughts, stood up, and said, "Let's go."

"Miss, where are you going?" the bodyguard asked.

"I'm going somewhere with Dr. Liu; you wait here!"

"But your health..."

"Don't worry, Dr. Liu's with me!"

Under Qingning's persuasion, the bodyguard was reassured.

Liu Zixuan drove Qingning away from the city, heading outside of Ghost Wood City.

The surroundings became increasingly desolate, and Qingning frowned: "Dr. Liu, where on earth are you taking me?"

To be honest, Qingning was a bit nervous.

Liu Zixuan teased, "What? Afraid I'll take you to some deserted place and sell you?"

"Not really, but looking as sickly as I do, no one would buy me even if you tried," Qingning replied, yet she was a bit worried. In this day and age, there were all sorts of bad people. Even if not selling her, if in this deserted place, Liu Zixuan does something to her...

Sickly as she was, she had no strength to resist, and then... she'd be calling for help to no avail.

Regretfully, she thought she should have brought the bodyguard with her!

Liu Zixuan seemed to see her anxiety, he laughed: "Don't worry, though I, Liu Zixuan, am no gentleman, I won't take advantage of others. It's true I like beauties, but I'm not lacking in beauties around me!"

These words were said, but how could Qingning know his true intentions?

Sitting anxiously in the car, watching it head toward increasingly remote areas, she became even more nervous.

After about forty minutes, the car stopped in the village of Lingxiu Village.

"Wha... Where is this place?" Qingning got out of the car and asked.

"Women's Country," Liu Zixuan shrugged, "This place is full of women."

"What?"

Qingning was even more nervous; a village full of women? Did Liu Zixuan bring her here to sell her to this village?

Instantly, she took two steps back and cautiously said, "Why... why don't we head back to the city!"

Liu Zixuan turned his head and teasingly asked, "You don't honestly think I'm going to harm you, do you?"

"It's just... I suddenly felt a bit unwell," Qingning didn't dare provoke Liu Zixuan.

"Handsome Xuan is back!"

"Oh my, you've brought back another big beauty, no wonder you don't come back to visit us city women!"

At this moment, Hu Lijing and Sister Zhang, along with a few other women, strolled over, each speaking with a hint of envy.

Liu Zixuan rubbed his forehead: "Ah, my dear sisters, I've missed you so much during this long time apart, why start teasing me the moment we meet!"

"See, he calls us sisters now because there's a beauty beside him, he used to call us little darlings!" Hu Lijing said with a sigh.

"Hey girl, are you Handsome Xuan's girlfriend?" Sister Zhang leaned over and asked Qingning.
