“Xiao Fan, hurry up, they’re coming to kill us.”

“Xiao Fan, what do we do? Only one team can survive.”

“Xiao Fan, I’ll carry you. Don’t give up.”

Song Fan had a strange, vivid dream where she seemed to be back in the rainforest on that island, surrounded by dense, towering vegetation. Familiar faces like Li Lan, Xiao Xiao, and even Jason appeared. However, she couldn’t make out the face of a long-haired woman who kept calling her “Xiao Fan.” Song Fan could even clearly smell the woman’s sweat.

She lay on the woman’s shoulder, who turned her head, but Song Fan couldn’t see her face clearly, only her moving lips.

“Xiao Fan, we’re almost there. Don’t worry, I won’t leave you behind,” the woman said with a smile, but in the next moment, both of them fell to the ground.

The woman quickly hid Song Fan in a nearby tree hollow and covered her with leaves and branches. Song Fan tried to reach out to her, but she couldn’t move.

Then she saw many people approaching, their faces indistinct, waving weapons. The woman fell, and her limbs and head were severed.

Suddenly, the scene changed, and a large cauldron appeared. Song Fan knew what was coming and wanted to close her eyes, but she couldn’t escape the vision.

The dismembered woman was dumped into the cauldron, steam rising, and a group of people cheered around it.

One person turned to look at her, eyes full of complexity—it was Li Lan, mouthing the words “Xiao Fan.”

Song Fan finally woke up, but immediately vomited. Having eaten nothing since fainting, she could only retch up some liquid, continuing to dry heave, afraid to close her eyes and relive the nightmare.

“Xiao Fan! What’s wrong?” Gu Chen quickly held her, gently patting her back.

A nurse hurried in to help, but Song Fan couldn’t control her nausea and soon fainted again.

“Call a doctor! Quickly!” Gu Chen shouted, sweat pouring from his forehead.

The hospital staff were on high alert today after so many incidents: Su Ming had been poisoned, nearly dying; Li Lan had committed suicide with a potent poison, leaving doctors helpless; and now Song Fan was unconscious. They feared for their jobs if something happened to her.

Fortunately, Song Fan had only fainted from shock. After a series of tests, the doctor assured Gu Chen she was fine, easing his worries.

When Su Ming walked in, Song Fan was sleeping.

“Why are you here? You just had surgery,” Gu Chen whispered, not wanting to wake Song Fan.

Su Ming’s face was pale. The surgery had been minor, but the poison had weakened him, and Li Lan’s death had devastated him further.

“I want to go home,” Su Ming said with pleading eyes. “Li Lan is dead. I can’t reach her family; they must have fled. I have some of her things at home. I want to burn them for her.”

Seeing Su Ming’s weakened state and knowing the recent turmoil, Gu Chen silently nodded. Only Su Ming could find peace now.

At home, looking at the cozy space, Su Ming finally broke down. Despite knowing Li Lan had ulterior motives, their time together had been genuine. He couldn’t believe she had no feelings for him, especially since she returned to save him.

After crying for a long time, Su Ming began sorting her belongings. Li Lan didn’t have much, living frugally. Seeing the diamond earrings brought fresh tears.

He recalled the day he saw Li Lan searching the hospital trash, asking the cleaning lady to help find her earrings. That moment, he had understood everything but chose to deceive himself.

Finding Li Lan’s necklace, Su Ming put it around his neck. It was the last memento of her.

Returning to the hospital, he found Song Fan awake but not in good spirits.

Seeing the necklace around Su Ming’s neck, Song Fan suddenly sat up. “Where did you get that necklace?”
