Xiao Yuan arrived quickly.
Anning hadn’t been waiting long when he got to the hospital.
When he entered the ward, Wu Linna was quite shocked to see him.
Wu Linna glanced at Xiao Yuan, then at Anning, and suddenly understood sothing.
Anning introduced Xiao Yuan to Wu Linna and Zhou Guangshen, and after Xiao Yuan exchanged a few polite words, he began to treat Zhou Guangshen.
Wu Linna stood by, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Granny Zhou was even more nervous.
After Xiao Yuan examined Zhou Guangshen’s leg, Granny Zhou cautiously asked, "Dr. Xiao, can my grandson... keep his leg?"
Xiao Yuan smiled, "The leg can certainly be saved, and there won’t be a need for amputation. However, once he’s recovered, if he doesn’t walk, it won’t be noticeable, but there will be a slight limp in his right foot when he walks. It won’t affect his daily life, but he won’t be able to run and jump anymore."
Granny Zhou was overjoyed to hear this, "That’s good, that’s great. As long as the leg isn’t amputated, it doesn’t matter if it’s a little limp. It’s a huge relief that his life is saved."
Wu Linna also breathed a sigh of relief.
However, she still felt sorry for Zhou Guangshen.
This kid was really so naive and acted so impulsively.
There she was, assuring Zhou Guangshen, "Don’t worry, even if you’re limping I won’t despise you. I’ll take good care of you in the future."
The girl had actually given her entire life away.
Anning didn’t even know what to say.
Zhou Guangshen had a very complex expression on his face.
But, he did not reject her. Instead, he simply said, "Okay."
Xiao Yuan took Granny Zhou to talk to the doctor about discharging Zhou Guangshen from the hospital.
Zhou Guangshen’s condition required a great deal of effort from Xiao Yuan, and he thought about moving Zhou Guangshen to his clinic, which would also make it easier for him to provide care.
After they left, Wu Linna pulled Anning aside to quietly ask, "Tell the truth, is he really your uncle? Why do I feel like he’s your boyfriend?"
Anning knew she couldn’t hide it anymore.
She smiled, "He’s my boyfriend. I was lying to you before."
Wu Linna was amused to the point of laughing, "Alright then, I share everything with you and you’ve been deceiving ."
Anning quickly pleaded for rcy.
Afterward, Anning and Wu Linna helped, accompanying Granny Zhou to bring Zhou Guangshen to Xiao Yuan’s clinic.
It wasn’t until the evening that Anning and Wu Linna left the clinic to go back to their respective hos.
By the ti she got back, it was already late.
Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu had just made dinner, and when they saw Anning co in, they asked, "Why did you co back so late today? By the way, where’s Xiao Yuan?"
Anning replied while changing shoes, "Sothing ca up. Xiao Yuan stayed at the clinic to treat soone, so I ca back first."
Mr. Gu was surprised, "Why did you go to Xiao Yuan’s clinic? Are you sick?"
Anning waved her hand, "No, it’s Nana’s boyfriend who broke his leg."
She sat down and relayed Wu Linna and Zhou Guangshen’s situation to Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu, "Xiao Yuan is a very skilled doctor, so I gave him a call. He said he could treat it, and we brought the patient over."
Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu were genuinely shocked to hear about what had happened.
They didn’t care about cooking anymore and just sat on the sofa to ask Anning, "How is Nana now? The child must have been terrified."
Mr. Gu sighed deeply, "These kids nowadays, why would they think to climb such high buildings? He’s got so nerve."
"Indeed."
Mrs. Gu was also quite upset, "If sothing truly happened to the child, the Wu Family would feel uneasy for a lifeti."
And that’s indeed the case, such events would be difficult for any family to bear.
Anning reassured Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu with a smile, "Nana is fine now, and as long as Zhou Guangshen gets better, she’ll be alright. She’s actually in quite good spirits right now."
Mr. Gu was relieved, "As long as the person is fine, that’s good."
Mrs. Gu looked at Anning with concern, "Ningning, don’t do such bold things, okay? When you have a relationship in the future, you must discuss it with us. As long as the person is of good character and you truly like them, your father and I will agree. Do you understand?"
Anning smiled, "I need to focus on my studies now, so I don’t have the mind for that. Anyway, I’m almost starving, let’s eat quickly."
In the following period, Wu Linna would rush to Xiao Yuan’s clinic after school every day.
She ca not only to visit Zhou Guangshen but also to do whatever she could help with.
After all, Zhou Guangshen was staying at Xiao Yuan’s place, and Xiao Yuan really didn’t charge much, only collecting so money for the cost of the dicines used.
Wu Lina felt quite guilty about it and started to help with cleaning whenever she ca over.
Anning also asked about Zhou Guangshen’s recovery from ti to ti.
After more than half a month, Zhou Guangshen was able to be discharged from the hospital.
He still needed to recuperate at ho for a while and was advised to stay as inactive as possible.
Once Anning knew he was out of danger, she didn’t ask about him anymore.
By March, Anning participated in the preliminary contest for biology.
She qualified for the competition with a perfect score.
In May, Anning went to the Provincial City to take part in the competition, where she was the only participant with a perfect score and won the first prize in the province.
As soon as First Middle School heard that Anning had won the first prize, they imdiately began to publicise it.
After all, Anning was the only participant with a perfect score in this year’s competition.
She scored more than a dozen points higher than the runner-up.
By June, the competitions were scheduled even more densely.
Anning didn’t even have ti to attend regular classes anymore.
She first took part in the preliminary contest for mathematics, followed by physics and chemistry.
She also scored perfect marks in these three subjects and qualified for the competition.
By the end of June, Anning also had to take the school’s final exams.
She was so busy she barely had ti to breathe, and she lost a lot of weight, which worried Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu deeply.
Xiao Yuan was also very concerned for Anning; he often made dicinal als for her to nourish her body, fearing she would exhaust herself.
While others had free ti to play during the sumr vacation, Anning had none.
She went to school every day to take advantage of every mont to study.
The school provided their science Olympiad contestants with a laboratory at Qingcheng Science and Technology University, with dedicated teachers to guide them through experints.
Anning spent her days going to school from dawn till dusk, and instead of gaining weight over the sumr, she lost several pounds.
Xiao Yuan weighed Anning, and to his dismay, she had lost weight over the sumr, dropping to just over eighty pounds despite her tall stature.
Xiao Yuan felt so distressed for her.
During the winter vacation, Xiao Yuan tried various ways to help Anning gain weight, but the few pounds she had gained over the winter were now gone.
However, he couldn’t bear to criticize Anning and could only keep finding ways to ensure her health.
After school started in September, Anning beca even busier.
She was to participate in three subjects for the competition.
Moreover, the schedule for these three subjects was very tight—Anning would finish one exam and then imdiately start the next.
After the three subjects competition, Anning also won first place in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, earning her the right to represent the province in the finals in the Capital.
If she managed to win first place in the finals, she would stay in the Capital for training.
The Capital would select thirty contestants for training, ultimately choosing six to represent the country in the International Science Olympiad.
Anning was determined to participate in a world-level competition.
She didn’t dare slack off for a mont and worked hard to learn all sorts of knowledge.
She had never been arrogant, despite having lived through many lives, thinking she was invincible and looking down on others.
In every world, she worked hard, studied earnestly, and gave her best to live an even better life.
She knew that no matter where she was, there would always be exceptionally gifted individuals. Although she had lived through many lives, she was no genius—all her achievents ca from hard work.
And in every world, there were true geniuses. Anning knew she couldn’t keep up with them if she didn’t work hard.
Anning qualified for the finals in four subjects.
In October, she and other contestants from the province went to the Capital.
Because she was to participate in the finals for four subjects, Anning would stay in the Capital much longer than the other contestants.
She thought that maybe, after going to the Capital this ti, she wouldn’t be able to return for a long ti.
She even considered buying an apartnt in the Capital.
It was at this ti that Xiao Yuan told Anning not to stay in a hotel, but to stay at his ho instead.
Xiao Yuan still had a few patients to see to, and after attending to these patients, he would also return to the Capital.
