Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After returning to her room, Qin Xi took a quick shower and left the hotel.

Ever since Yu Liman took out that drink, every time she thought of it, she would feel a tightness on her chest. In this parallel world, she might be able to see her parents from her previous life again.

With excitement and trepidation, she found a phone booth at the intersection. “Hello, I need to make a long distance call.”

The phone booth was not big, only five square meters. It mostly sold newspapers, magazines, and some phone cards.

The lady boss was a middle-aged woman in her forties. She was reading a magazine while cracking sunflower seeds. She said without looking up, “Go ahead. 30 cents a minute.”

Qin Xi picked up the phone with trembling hands and held her breath. She dialed the number that she knew by heart.

“Sorry, the number you dialed is out of service.”

Qin Xi was puzzled. How could the number be out of service?

She remembered clearly that this was her grandmother’s phone number. She once used this number as the password for her computer. How could it not be in service?

Moreover, according to the time, her mother was in high school and could only come home once a month. Therefore, her grandmother installed a landline at home so that her grandmother could talk to her mother.

But why couldn’t she get through?

Her heart sank. She felt a sense of suffocation. Biting her lower lip, she tried to make another call. However, the result was the same.

Qin Xi put down the phone dejectedly and forced a smile at the lady boss. After saying, “The call didn’t go through,” she turned around and left.

It was noon. The heat wave was roasting the surroundings and sucking away the vitality of every living being.

Qin Xi did not return to the hotel. Instead, she walked aimlessly on the streets. Facing the heat wave, she was not affected at all.

Before she knew it, she had arrived at a park. The environment here was beautiful. The trees were lush and the sea of flowers was dazzling. The air was fragrant and the temperature was pleasant. When the breeze swept past, it dispersed the heat of summer, making one feel relaxed.

Qin Xi sat under a shade and was thinking about her previous life when she suddenly heard someone shouting for help not far away.

She immediately stood up to look in the direction of the voice. She saw a man in his forties lying on the ground with his eyes closed. Beside him was a woman in her early twenties kneeling and crying for help in despair.

Qin Xi looked at the black smoke rising from the man and immediately understood what was going on.

At this moment, the man was already surrounded by people. A young man was resuscitating him. Qin Xi quickly walked over and squeezed into the crowd.

Xia Tangxin’s face was covered in tears as she begged, “Doctor, how’s my father? Please save him. I beg you…”

The young male doctor smiled charmingly as he brushed the hair on his forehead behind his ear. He said confidently, “Don’t worry, your father has a heart attack. I happen to have medicine with me. He’ll be fine after taking it.”

Xia Tangxin sobbed, her eyes as red as an apple. She held her father’s stiff hands tightly and said in confusion, “But, but my father doesn’t have a heart disease!”

The young doctor retorted immediately, his face filled with cockiness, “That’s impossible. I’m a neurology and cardiology student. I just came back from studying abroad and can tell at a glance that your father has heart disease. Don’t worry, there’s an incubation period for heart disease. That’s why your father looks like this.”

As he spoke, he took out a bottle of fast-acting heart pills from his pocket and was about to feed it to the patient.

Qin Xi was furious. She said coldly, “This gentleman is suffering from shortness of breath from heat stroke. His heart is beating irregularly, and the lack of oxygen in his brain caused a relapse of cerebral infarction. This has nothing to do with heart disease. If you give him a fast-acting heart pill, I guarantee that this gentleman will die faster.”
