Ning Ran sat motionless in the RV. She knew that they were moving, but could not tell in which direction they were headed.

Very slowly, the movement ground to a half. Given that things had gotten so far, there was no point in getting anxious.

If she analyzed him closely enough, Ruan Anxi did not look too bad at all. However, he was too thin and weak, especially in his arms.

He had fair and slender arms. He was so pathetically skinny that one could see his bones.

Ruan Anxi took out some bread and milk, as well as fresh fruit.

“Why don't you have some? You should sate your hunger.”

Ning Ran refused. “I'm not hungry.”

Ruan Anxi decided not to coax her and promptly began to eat.

He seemed to be very particular about how he ate. First, Ruan Anxi washed the tomato twice before blotting it dry with some tissue. It was only after the cleaning was completed that he gently took a bite.

“Women should eat more fruits for the sake of their beauty,” said Ruan Anxi, giving the tomato in his hand a wave.

“Are you truly a doctor?” asked Ning Ran curiously.

“Of course. The medical university I attended is ranked among the top ten in the world. I am also the youngest graduate in the faculty. I specialized in surgery and did research on other topics, but I am just unable to cure myself.”

“Then why haven't you gone to work at a hospital? A doctor's duty is to save and treat, not kill,” replied Ning Ran.

“I dislike working at hospitals. I also dislike saving people. I only studied medicine to try and cure myself. But when I realized that there was no cure, I gave up.”

While the reasoning was quite sound, it was still a problematic one.

“Your illness cannot be cured via surgery because it appears to be some sort of infection. How could you possibly cure yourself if you specialized in surgery? I do believe there is hope for you. You just need to find an expert in that specific field to treat your illness.”

“Let's drop the subject of my illness. I'm already used to it. Let's talk shop. What manner of ties do you have with that Lu Jingyuan?” After saying that, Ruan Anxi took another bite of his tomato.
