How long has she been in a coma?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dressed in a black knitted dress and high-heeled boots, Lin Chuqiao arrived gracefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her first question upon entering was to inquire directly about the patient’s condition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng led her to Wen Xin’s bedside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Huixi, with a face full of excitement, said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Doctor, my daughter has been asleep for two days now, please, I beg you to take a look. Please...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others also looked on with curiosity and anticipation at this beautiful \"psychiatrist.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chuqiao didn’t respond; she just stared intently at Wen Xin’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she pulled back her eyelids to check the pupils.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While observing carefully, a faint glint of blue appeared in Lin Chuqiao’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long while, her expression relaxed, and she sighed slightly in relief:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thankfully, the condition isn’t the most severe...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Lin Chuqiao speak as if there was more to her words, Fang Cheng couldn’t help but look at her in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After examining Wen Xin’s physical condition, Lin Chuqiao looked up at the people around her:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can try to awaken the patient’s consciousness, but I need a sufficiently quiet environment. There are too many disturbances here...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s alright, it’s alright, we can leave right now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Donghe hastily responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s not what I mean.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chuqiao, who was interrupted, shook her head and then added an explanation:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What I mean is that the hospital environment isn’t suitable. There are too many interfering factors. For safety, it would be best to bring the patient to my residence to start treatment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd couldn’t help but feel startled by her words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Lin Chuqiao’s serious expression, Fang Cheng then spoke up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I trust Dr. Lin’s capabilities. I’ll take Wen Xin with her to her place shortly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Fang Cheng’s guarantee, everyone felt at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no time to worry about the discharge procedures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Huixi hurriedly put a thick down jacket and cotton pants on her daughter, wrapping her up snugly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng picked up Wen Xin in his arms and asked the others to stay in the ward and wait for news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Xiumei hesitated as she looked at the departing figure of the beautiful doctor. Then she fixed her gaze on Fang Cheng and softly cautioned him:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Cheng, be careful...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chuqiao’s lips curled slightly upon hearing this and glanced back at the pure and lovely girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did she think of her as a man-eating demoness?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng nodded towards Zhou Xiumei and reassured the anxious Wen Huixi again:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Wen, don’t worry, with me here, nothing will go wrong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then left the ward with Wen Xin in his arms, alongside Lin Chuqiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the night sky, the city was a spectacle of neon lights and twinkling stars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sleek red sports car moved swiftly through the relentless stream of traffic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chuqiao held the steering wheel with both hands, driving smoothly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng held Wen Xin in his arms, sitting in the backseat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This girl has a special ability, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While stopped at a crossroads awaiting the traffic light, Lin Chuqiao suddenly broke the silence with a question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng was momentarily stunned, then nodded in acknowledgment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought back to Wen Xin’s various past behaviors and that night in the warehouse when she struggled to awaken him from his madness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for someone with abilities, how could this be done?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s correct.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chuqiao nodded and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to my guess, the little girl awakened her Special Ability due to some reason, but she herself wasn’t aware of it, nor did anyone guide her properly. As a result, she overused her ability, ultimately leading to spiritual exhaustion and falling into a coma.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it similar to Pan Wendi’s situation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng couldn’t help but ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wendi is a bit special...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chuqiao hesitated for a moment, then said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He doesn’t come from an ordinary family; if there’s an issue with his spirit, as long as he is sent back home in time, there will be a way to resolve it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her answer seemed vague and evasive, as if hiding something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng, however, vaguely guessed something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a silence, he brought up another matter:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You mentioned earlier in the ward that Wen Xin’s situation is not the most serious, what did you mean by that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chuqiao looked back at Fang Cheng:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haven’t you heard about what happened at West Mountain?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know about that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng’s brows twitched slightly, replying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"About two months ago, there was an explosion at an archaeological excavation site at West Mountain which sparked a wildfire, leading to the military quarantining West Gate District for a week.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your circles are too small, your information too insulated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chuqiao said with a smile and a shake of her head, teasing Fang Cheng before she went on to explain:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For ordinary people, neither the explosion nor the wildfire matters much, it doesn’t affect everyday life, but the black rain that followed was the most lethal and dangerous.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While saying this, she looked at the continuously flashing red lights ahead, her tone slightly more serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If the explosion was just opening a Pandora’s box, then the black rain was the disaster and pandemic hidden inside the box.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since that rain, numerous people in East Capital have exhibited coma-like symptoms, and upon waking, their personalities drastically changed, committing terrifying acts contrary to reason, some even mutating physically into non-human forms.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s why I said, if Wen Xin is only in a plain coma, then it’s relatively manageable...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing Lin Chuqiao’s explanation, Fang Cheng couldn’t help but think of what the hospital security uncle had mentioned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two seemed to match up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng’s eyes narrowed slightly as he looked down at Wen Xin lying in his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She appeared to be deeply asleep, her face tightly furrowed, forehead still sweating profusely, evidently in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng extended a hand to gently wipe her sweat, secretly hoping that everything would indeed be alright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red light numbers flickered, changing to green.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car continued forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About twenty minutes later, they arrived at a residential area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the garden-like community environment, dozens of brightly lit high-rise apartment buildings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng realised that this should be Cuihu Yipin located in Jiangdong District.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chuqiao, as a university lecturer, being able to afford living in such luxury residences costing nearly one hundred thousand per square meter, clearly came from an extraordinary family background.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After parking the car in the underground garage, Fang Cheng carried Wen Xin and followed Lin Chuqiao to swipe the card and take the elevator, ascending to Room A on the 21st floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon opening the finely crafted aluminium entrance door with a sense of quality, a spacious living room and floor-to-ceiling glass windows came into view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire house was decorated with a simple and stylish aesthetic, the furniture and appliances clearly being high-end brands, but the massive space made it seem a bit too solitary for one person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chuqiao led Fang Cheng through a hallway fitted with ceiling lamps, towards the furthest room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the push of the door, a pleasant \"dingling\" sound suddenly rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Cheng looked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw that the room was pitch-black, with many differently styled Praying Bells hanging from the ceiling, the previous sounds a result of their swaying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a dark room, probably about twenty square meters in size.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had no windows, no light fixtures installed, and the floor was lined with a circle of extinguished white candles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faintly visible were densely packed yellow talisman papers on the walls and ceiling, along with many large and small black crosses.\u003C\u002Fp>",1326,"2026-05-29T15:13:17.898Z","2026-06-01T04:29:34.702Z",1,"novelbin.me","a5f151449ae4cbfdc304d36af23a951023877394bfa5f2188bd214adac9f273b","starting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-chapter-204","starting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-chapter-202",1278,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-to-gain-experience-from-push-ups-cover.jpg"]
