X-ray Vision

After much hesitation, Xia Lei quashed his curiosity and did not remove the ointes on his head and returned to bed Xia Lei kept thinking and thinking till he fell asleep at 1:00 am

When he awoke, it was already past 8:00 am and he felt no pain or discoain and rees in front of the mirror

His reflection showed a thin layer of ointh the oint on? Is ht made Xia Lei quite excited and he could not hold back his curiosity any longer He used his bandages to carefully dab at the oint made his left eye ache but the pain was bearable

With the ointht entered his eye and Xia Lei could see himself and his left eye clearly in the mirror The iris of his left eye was as healthy and shi+ny black as before the accident and there didn’t seem to be any obvious injury to his eyeball Only the area around his eye socket had traces of burnt skin

Xia Lei stood blankly for a while, then suddenly clenched his fists and exclaimed in excitement, “My eye’s not blind! It’s not blind! Haha, my eye’s not blind!”

At that moment, the doctor on duty walked into the ith a nurse and saw Xia Lei dancing for joy in the toilet

“Hey! Why did you rees?” The nurse spoke fiercely “Are you mad? Don’t you want your eye anymore?”

Xia Lei did not see behind him

“Hey, you! If you don’t follow the doctor’s instructions we can’t care for you here” The doctor on duty was also unfriendly “Did you hear et it He needs at least 200,000 to completely fix his eye You think a person like hily

Xia Lei came to his senses and turned around In that instant, his left eye throbbed ever so slightly, and he thought he saw the nurse’s perky buttocks - her bare perky buttocks The snowy fullness of it surprised hiht had disappeared and all he saas her skirt-covered bum She had a nice curve to her bum, but it was completely different from the bare buttocks he had seen

“This… This ?” Xia Lei was both shocked and curious

“Hey, I’ with you?” The nurse was annoyed

Then, the doctor realised it and reacted before the nurse did He gaped at Xia Lei, then pointed to his left eye and asked, “Your… Your eye! What’s going on with your eye?”

The nurse reacted next and her jaw dropped to the floor

Xia Lei smiled widely “My eye healed by itself I really can’t pay so much for the hospital fees so I don’t want to stay here any longer I’d like to be discharged”

Doctor and nurse looked at Xia Lei like he was soe creature The one most shocked and bewildered by all this was the doctor, who had personally checked and confirmed that the eye would be blind He had said that there would be a small chance for it to recover but that was because he intended to get moreback at hi eyes!

It seemed only the Gods could explain what happened to Xia Lei

Xia Lei left the hospital an hour later He had only used 1,000 of the 10,000 Chen Chuan-Hu gave hi - coht outdoors didn’t suit Xia Lei’s left eye, so he gave up on his idea of going to Ma Xiao-An and took a taxi home

The home his parents left him wasroom He had no expensive appliances or electronics and everything in the flat was at least a few years or over ten years old These things were old but they lent Xia Lei some comfort and held memories of his parents

Xia Lei’s left eye felt better at hooing on? It’s like I had a strange dream…” After Xia Lei had settled down, he started to mull over his situation

He wanted answers but had none

“Lei, are you home?” A female voice called frohts Xia Lei grunted in response and went to the balcony

A young policewoman looked up at hiure Pale peaks peeked seductively fro Ru-Yi, a pencil-pushi+ng police officer who lived below Xia Lei Ru-Yi and Lei were childhood friends who played in the sandbox and played hide-and-seek together; they had always been close

“Oh, it’s you, Ru-Yi What’s up?” Xia Lei seRu-Yi

“Sure, I’ll be right down” Xia Lei left his balcony

Downstairs, a ray of sunlight suddenly hit Xia Lei in his left eye and it felt like a needle had plunged into his eye The terrible pain o black in his his left eye and he could not see anything Xia Lei had a stab of panic before his left eye regained sight without hi Ru-Yi, as not far aas suddenly ‘pulled closer’ by his left eye The clothes she wore seeossa itself to hiossamer vanished in the next blink and she was completely naked to his eye
