Chapter 405
Susie nodded with a smile, "Yeah, I''m all good now, healthy. I want to live a normal life, catch up on everything I missed." Seeing Susie like this was truly heartwarming.
"Great, I support you," I agreed, but still cautiously asked, "Can you understand all these? If not, we can get you a tutor."
"Of course," Susie chuckled, "Felicia, I feel like I got smarter after the heart transnt. I understand all these things at a nce." I paused for a moment. She rested her on her chest, asking "Felicia, do you think the original owner of this heart was a genius?"
"What are you talking about? Geniuses use their brains, not their hearts," I dismissed her idea.
But deep down, I had felt the same way too.
Still, I didn''t want Susie to dwell on such thoughts, to avoid any unnecessary worries.
"You were always smart, your brother said so," I corrected her again.
Susieughed, "Felicia, I really want to go to college. I want to experience school life."
"Sure!" I showed my support and flipped through the books she was reading. Many pages were marked with notes, and it was clear that these were second-hand books.
Curious, I asked, "Who got you these books? Your brother?"
"No, a friend," Susie said, her gaze slightly evasive.
Sensing something was off, given her innocence, I feared she might have been deceived, so I teased with a smile, "Wow, making friends even while hospitalized? And a positive influence at that, not bad."
"Not really a friend," Susie appeared a bit shy.
I pretended to be confused, "You''ve lost me."
"It was someone visiting another patient, got lost in their book and ended up in my room by mistake. Scared me at first; I thought it was a burr. He mentioned he was studying for his PhD..."
Once Susie finished her story, I understood it was a serendipitous meeting.
Although the story seemed harmless, I still thought it was best to be cautious.
So, I indirectly said, "Sounds like a good person to know. I''d like to meet this ambitious schr myself. Which ward is his family in? We should thank him properly, maybe invite him over for dinner or O something."
"I didn''t ask," Susie replied instantly, "Felicia, I''ve already thanked him. Dinner is too cliché, let''s not."
She didn''t even ask which ward he was from, what else could I say?
I flipped through the book again, admiring the neat handwriting on the notes, thinking that a person''s handwriting often reflects their character. This person must be decent, with no ill intentions.

"No," Susie replied, wrinkling her nose, "Felicia, did you bring me anything tasty?"
Ernest hadn''t contacted Susie either?!
I was momentarily lost in thought, "It''s baked pear."
"Baked pear?" Susie seemed unfamiliar with it.
"It''s delicious," I said as I unwrapped the baked pear Ivan gave me and ced it in front of Susie.
She licked her lips and took a sip of the pear juice first, "Wow, it''s so sweet."
"Go on, it''s good for your throat," I watched her, zoning out.
"Felicia?" Susie waved her hand in front of my eyes.
"Hmm?"
"Felicia, are you sure you and my brother didn''t have a fight? You seem so distracted," Susie had a keen sense of noticing the odd. "No fight, don''t worry about..." Before I could finish, there was a knock on the door.From N?velDrama.Org.
As Susie said, "Come in," the door opened.
The person who walked in left me utterly stunned.
