This Childhood Sweetheart is a Little Sweet

Chapter 67: Still Feeling Scared



Chapter 67

Jiang Wei stared at him for a while, repeatedly wanting to speak but stopping herself.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Yi Ming turned to walk towards the direction of the Clinical Medicine Storage Building. Jiang Wei pulled his sleeve again, and this time, she stuttered, "I... made a fool of myself just now."

Yi Ming stopped, and after a moment, he suddenly turned around with a bright smile, "Quick, tell me about it!"

Jiang Wei: "......"

This fellow student, couldn't you at least try to hide that mischievous little expression of yours? Jiang Wei released her grip on Yi Ming's sleeve, then lowered her head and let out a light sigh, "I couldn't find your classroom. I only remembered that you were having class somewhere around here, so when I saw the storage building, I went in without a second thought."

"You went to the storage building to look for me?"

"Yes." Jiang Wei nodded, pursing her lips as she recalled, "The security guard wasn't in the room at the time. I went in and wandered around for several floors but couldn't find any rooms that looked like classrooms. All the doors were closed..."

"And then what?" Yi Ming suppressed a smile, almost able to imagine what must have happened next to Jiang Wei.

"And then..." Jiang Wei paused, then took a deep breath, "And then I just kept walking and walking until I reached the end of the hallway. There was an iron door directly facing the hallway, and I thought it might be a stairwell classroom."

"So you went in?" Yi Ming probed.

"No," Jiang Wei shook her head vigorously, a hint of panic flickering in her beautiful eyes as she said softly, "I waited by the door, but it was really cold in there, and there wasn't any sound coming from inside... After a while, I thought it was strange, so I looked up and saw a sign above the tall door. The fluorescent light was broken, so I had to squint to read it."

"What did you see?"

"Morgue."

Jiang Wei bit her lip and answered in a muffled voice.

Yi Ming stood with his hands in his pockets, laughing so hard that he could barely stand up straight, "My dear little Jiang Wei, were you afraid that this troublemaker would live for a thousand years? You went straight to the morgue to wait for me."

Jiang Wei sighed and gave him a light slap on the arm, "I got lost, okay?"

"Then what happened?"

"Then the security guard came, and he asked me what I was doing. I said... I was waiting for someone."

Jiang Wei recalled this and couldn't help but smile wryly, "I scared him. He told me, 'You might be waiting for a while, the people inside have been 'sleeping' for a long time.'"

Yi Ming shook his head with a chuckle, "That's the Clinical Medicine Storage Building. Some bodies donated to the medical school for research are stored there. Where were you waiting for someone? No one you were waiting for would be there."

Jiang Wei sniffed, aware that she had made a big fool of herself, but thinking about it, she also felt a bit shaken.

For someone who had never been exposed to such a place before, the first accidental encounter left Jiang Wei's heart racing even after she left the storage building.

"They... are great people..."

Jiang Wei looked ahead as she walked slowly.

"What did you say?"

"I said, the people lying in there are truly great."

Jiang Wei's heart felt sour. Those who possessed great love, even after death, were willing to offer the only thing they could leave behind to this world. Because of their existence, medical research could progress, and various illnesses could gradually be cured. This spirit shook Jiang Wei to her core.

"Yes, I've told my dad that in the future, if one day I leave this world, I hope I can also 'return' to my alma mater, so that I can become someone who is still beneficial to this world."

"Count me in."

Jiang Wei smiled faintly.

Rarely did the two of them finally agree on something - they shared a common goodwill and the purest love for this world...
