I had expected it, but the hospital where I was admitted turned out to be the same as where Sung Ji-chan was.
“Why did you come here?”
Sung Ji-chan clicked his tongue. I took medicine for no reason.
“Making fun of me?”
“Friends can tease each other.”
“You didn’t come to save me. What kind of friend are you?”
When I said that, Sung Ji-chan frowned and rebutted.
“That’s because of Sunwoo-jin, that idiot.”
According to Sung Ji-chan, Sunwoo-jin was actually a hidden powerhouse who, when angered, couldn’t be stopped, and so on… I wasn’t interested and let it pass.
“But still. Would you leave a kid alone?”
I remembered when Sunwoo-jin faced all the delinquents at Haeseong High School alone. How anxious my heart was every time he got hit.
Unfairly, Sung Ji-chan looked indignant at my words.
“Oh, am I not a patient too?”
Right. Come to think of it, he was hospitalized back then too.
But what was the diagnosis?
I just realized that I didn’t know why Sung Ji-chan was hospitalized. While it came to mind, I asked.
“Hey, why are you hospitalized?”
“Me?”
Sung Ji-chan said in a nonchalant tone.
“Concussion.”
Right, you’d need a concussion to be hospitalized…
What?
“It was a concussion?”
I thought he came here for some rest, but it seems it was more serious than I thought. I believed the system when it said it was ‘still’ okay, but in reality, it might not have been so…
“But it’s not that serious. I’ll be discharged tomorrow.”
As if reading my thoughts, Sung Ji-chan said.
“You should be more worried about yourself. Are you okay? You got hit in the head too.”
“Me? Well… I’m fine.”
Unable to say that the system healed me, I casually brushed it off.
Sung Ji-chan shook his head incredulously.
“Fine? There’s no way.”
“Why not?”
When I asked, Sung Ji-chan said seriously.
“Sunwoo-jin was really worried about you.”
I flinched.
“He said blood was flowing from your head like crazy, and you looked like a complete corpse. Well, I couldn’t see it because I was in the hospital. Anyway, he thought you were really dead.”
Was it that severe…? Then, the last face I saw before closing my eyes came to mind. I had never seen Sunwoo-jin make such a desperate expression. He must have been really shocked.
“I should thank him later.”
I was thankful for coming to rescue me and bringing me to the hospital. Well, I owe him a lot.
“Where’s Sunwoo-jin?”
“I don’t know. Try calling him. He probably went to school.”
School? Come to think of it, what day is it today?
When I asked Sung Ji-chan, he said two days had passed since the day I was kidnapped. So, I had been asleep for almost a day.
“This can’t be.”
“Why?”
“I’ve never slept so long.”
Upon hearing that, Sung Ji-chan looked at me as if he couldn’t believe it.
“Usually, don’t people express it as ‘losing consciousness’?”
That’s right.
Anyway, if it weren’t for the system, it could have been a pretty big accident.
[Have you realized my preciousness now? _+]Yeah. Thank you.
I expressed my gratitude sincerely.
While Sung Ji-chan and I were exchanging frivolous remarks, the second visitor appeared.
“Ijueun!”
It was Yoo Hee-na.
“Look at this! This one’s completely pale.”
Really? I can’t believe that.
Yoo Hee-na touched my face here and there as soon as she came, looking astonished.
“Why are you so pale?”
Just… because my lips have no color…?
‘I should put on some lip balm or something.’
Although my body was perfectly fine, Yoo Hee-na, making more fuss, made me feel awkward about how to react. Awkwardly smiling, I calmed Yoo Hee-na down.
“I’m okay.”
“There’s no way you’re okay! You got hit with a wooden stick!”
“No, I’m really fine. Want me to check?”
In the end, Yoo Hee-na flipped my hair and, after confirming there was no injury, finally stepped back.
Yoo Hee-na, looking relieved, said with a more relaxed expression.
“Phew, I thought something big happened!”
Indeed, something big did happen. Since I really got hit.
Anyway, seeing someone worry about me made me feel sentimental. It had been so long since someone cared about me… Suddenly, I realized that in the original world, there was no one who thought about me like this. Of course, there was no such injury there either.
‘Still, they’re friends, after all.’
I looked at Sung Ji-chan and Yoo Hee-na once again.
Just when I woke up in this world, I didn’t expect to feel such emotions towards them. At that time, I was really busy avoiding them.
But now, well, I have to admit it.
I consider them as my friends.
“I even took notes for you while you were gone!”
Yoo Hee-na took out a textbook from her bag and showed it off to me like a trophy.
“Here, you need this to catch up on the classes you missed, right? Take it. I took notes for you. There’s no need to thank me!”
I accepted the textbook from Yoo Hee-na and opened it.
“…….”
For a moment, I was speechless.
I feel sorry for the heartwarming atmosphere, but… Yoo Hee-na. Did you really take notes?

Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
