Ye Ling entered the backyard and, once she was sure that no one would come over for the moment, quickly entered the small world.

As soon as she entered the small world, Ye Ling felt a slight change. The air became even fresher, and it seemed to contain something that instantly replenished one’s energy.

Ye Ling headed toward her herbal field and was about to check the growth of her herbs when she suddenly noticed that the impenetrable white mist in the small world appeared to have become thinner!

Ye Ling was stunned.

Could this be the reason for the change in the atmosphere inside the small world? Because the mist had become thinner?

But why did the mist become thinner? Ye Ling remembered that there had been another occasion when the mist had seemed to thin out, but that time it wasn’t very pronounced, so she thought it might have been her imagination.

Now, however, the change was more obvious.

Ye Ling thought about what had happened during these two instances of mist thinning and finally found a common factor: both times, she had used her medical skills to help and treat people.

The first time, she had assisted Aunt Hua through a difficult childbirth, and the second time, she had provided medical aid to many injured workers.

Could it be that the condition for the mist in the small world to change is to use medical skills to help and treat more people?

Ye Ling’s thoughts became clearer, but a question followed: what lay beyond the mist? Was it another, broader world, or were there many rare treasures hidden within?

Such speculations didn’t greatly affect Ye Ling’s emotions. As someone who had already experienced death once, she didn’t have a strong desire for wealth. In this life, all she wanted was to take control of her own destiny and lead a happy life with her own hands.

After checking the herbs in her herbal field, Ye Ling left the small world.

Not long after, the results of the pharmacy administrator election were announced. Ye Ling passed the exam with high marks, and once the pharmacy was finally completed and furnished, she could officially start working.

After informing Wan Hai and the others about this news, they all felt happy for her. However, Wan Xue furrowed her brow and pouted, “Sister Lingling, do you really have to go? Can’t you continue living with us?”

Wan Xue voiced the sentiments of Wan Hai and the others. Although they were all delighted that Ye Ling had passed the pharmacy administrator exam, during this time, they had already come to regard her as family. The thought of Ye Ling leaving Willow Village and not knowing when they would see her again made them feel uncomfortable.

Min Nan patted Wan Xue’s head and said, “Don’t be naughty.”

Wan Xue turned her head away in discontent, thinking to herself, “You’re the one who can’t bear to part with Sister Lingling the most, and yet you’re telling me not to be upset!”

Ye Ling’s mood was also somewhat melancholic, and she was about to say something when there was a hurried knocking at the door. Everyone paused, and Wan Hai walked over to open the door, saying, “Could it be that Mom’s back…”

Sun Li should be returning soon after picking tea leaves.

However, when the front door opened, the person standing outside was not Sun Li but Dr. Xu.

Ye Ling knew that Dr. Xu must be looking for her, and his personal visit meant that it was something important. She asked, “Dr. Xu, what’s going on?”

Dr. Xu had a slightly anxious look on his face, and he seemed out of breath, clearly having rushed over. When he saw Ye Ling, he spoke urgently, “Here’s the situation, Comrade Ye. The condition of the worker who went down the mountain to deliver the message has suddenly worsened, despite using a lot of medication, and nothing seems to be working. If this continues, he’ll likely need an amputation. I thought you might have a way to help, so…”

Ye Ling paused for a moment, and the man’s face who had gone down the mountain with her came to her mind. Because he had insisted that he was fine, Ye Ling hadn’t checked his wound. But who would have thought that his condition would worsen?

In a way, that man was a hero who had saved more than a dozen workers in the mine. Ye Ling didn’t want to see him lose a limb due to the worsening of his injuries. She immediately said to Dr. Xu, “Alright, I’ll come with you to take a look. ”

Without wasting any time, the two of them quickly set off for Willow Village’s clinic. After Min Nan and Wan Hai gave them a few words of advice, they followed along.

Upon reaching the clinic and entering the high-risk ward, the man lying on the bed looked at Ye Ling and was momentarily stunned.. Then, he revealed a

hearty and rugged smile, saying, “Comrade Ye, why have you come?”
