Chapter 3 - A Plan To Escape

The nurse almost screamed out loud but quickly covered her mouth as she heard a hoarse voice say: "Will you help me escape from here or not? Otherwise, just take the IV's out and I will escape myself."

Lin Xiaoxiao was taking a gamble. When she heard the nurse defending her and even risking her job to go against this bodies stepmother's orders. Lin Xiaoxiao figured that maybe this nurse would be willing to help her in her escape. The body she was in was still very weak. Which would make it almost impossible to escape on her own. She would need someone's help if she wanted to escape right now. But Lin Xiaoxiao also knew that as soon as this bodies old host's family knew she was awake they would drag her back to that hell hole and that was the last place she wanted to go. She had no time to care about whether or not she was in another person body or how it came to be. She had already decided since she was in this body he will now live as Xi Xiaoxiao since a few minutes ago. She could take a wild guess that she must have died when she fell on the red carpet. She will just have to look into it once she was out of the hospital.

"Are you going to help me or not?" Lin Xiaoxiao stared at the speechless nurse in front of her. 'Did this nurse go stupid? Why was she not answering?' The nurse was just standing there with her eyes wide and her mouth covered.

"AH…. Escape…. Ummm... " The nurse got lost in thought as if she was pondering something. "Yes, I can help you but you will need to wait until tomorrow morning. It will mean that you need to act as if you are still in a coma until then. Can you do that?"

"Act? Yeah, acting is what I am best at." Lin Xiaoxiao gave a dry laugh, she was the top actress of A country in her past life. Never mind acting out a role as someone in a coma, she could act out a role as a dead person and make it so believable that people would report an actual dead body. In her past life, Lin Xiaoxiao had learned so many things from the time she was three years old. From playing musical instruments to knowing ten different languages and many many other skills. Whatever she was taught she learned to perfection so acting as a coma patient was as easy as breathing for her.

The nurse did not read much into Lin Xiaoxiao's words as she started to tell Lin Xiaoxiao her plan. After listening to everything in detail, Lin Xiaoxiao was very surprised at how well thought out the nurse's plan was. Not only was this plan very well thought out it was thought of on the spot! Lin Xiaoxiao was wondering why this woman was a nurse! "So that's the plan whether or not it goes well is all based on how well you can act."

"I will do my best do not worry. Umm… I did not get your name." Lin Xiaoxiao knew she could not move on her own right now so after hearing the nurses plan she felt very relieved and also thankful to her.

The nurse smiled and said: "Qin Mei. Miss Xi, for now, I will switch out your IV drips and get you some water. Once we get you out of here I will help you with your recovery. What you do after that I will leave up to you."

"Miss Qin, may I ask why you are so readily helping me? You can get in a lot of trouble for helping me." Although Lin Xiaoxiao was really thankful for the help she was going to be getting she still felt bad if something went wrong and Qin Mei got in trouble for it.

"It's fine, there are no cameras in this hallway. Your mother had them all removed so that there would be no evidence of any mistreatment. Not to mention all the hospital staff have been given the order to not enter your room. I have been coming in to change your IV every day. So I know no one is paying attention to what is going on in this room. It would be days before someone would even realize you are gone and as long as I return to work like nothing had happened. No one will notice it was me that helped you escape and it if it does trace back to me then so be it. I will not regret my actions of helping someone in need." Lin Xiaoxiao was really surprised at Qin Mei's words. She did not expect that this nurse had been taking a risk every day just to help keep this body alive. Lin Xiaoxiao was really grateful that she had met such a caring person.

"Miss Qin..." Lin Xiaoxiao was interrupted as Qin Mei said: "Just Mei is fine."

"Mei thank you." Lin Xiaoxiao now could only hope that everything will go smoothly the next morning.

Qin Mei continued changing the IV's as she said: "I am just doing what I think is right. For now, let's get these changed and get you some water sip on. I'm very surprised that you are even able to talk. Normally takes some effort to even be able to speak when someone wakes from a coma yet here you are chatting away."

"I'm surprised as well. I wish my legs were the same." She did not know why but her upper body seemed to be in good shape but her legs still felt weak and she had to use a lot of effort just to move her toes.

After Qin Mei finished replacing the IV's then she gave Lin Xiaoxiao some water to wet her throat. When everything was done, she said: "Okay, just rest for now. I will come fetch you in the morning. "

Lin XiaoXiao nodded her head and watched as Qin Mei Left the room. She sighed in her heart, everything was riding on whether or not they could pull this off tomorrow morning. If she was able to escape then she would be able to start her brand new life in a good way. If they were caught she would be dragged back to that hell hole and forced to do labor again or maybe even worse just killed off and dumped in a river somewhere. Everything was riding on what happens in the morning.
