When Lu Xiao left the asylum, she was holding a jigsaw puzzle. The image on it was a rising sun, a symbol of hope.
Lu Xiao planned to hang it in her office.
So, as she was about to head home with Ares, she asked Teacher Ai Li to take it back to the Fifth Research Institute for her.
Teacher Ai Li took the puzzle. "Don't worry, I'll keep it safe for you. You should hurry home and get some rest."
In fact, the color had already returned to Lu Xiao's face, and she could tell her recovery was much faster this time than the last.
'Looks like my body is gradually getting used to this.'
"I know. You and the others should get some rest when you get back, too. See you tomorrow." Waving goodbye to Teacher Ai Li and the others, Lu Xiao followed Ares to the hover car.
Once they were back in the car, Ares handed Lu Xiao a cup of warm, sweetened milk tea.
He had made it himself, thinking something sweet would make her feel better after what she'd been through.
