The next morning, I arrived at the laboratory before five o'clock, which was unprecedented for me.

In order to supervise me, Tyler arrived at the lab at 5:00 every morning like me. I started writing code and he started catching up on sleep.

Today, he won't be able to sleep anymore.

Tyler was as anxious as an ant on hot pot. He called me a series of times in the morning, and I pretended not to hear them all.

It was not until ten o'clock, after I had gotten a sick leave note from the hospital, that I was able to reluctantly get through to him.

"Ray! Where are you? Why haven't you come to the lab yet? I called you so many times, why didn't you answer?"

Tyler changed his usual gentle tone and became sharp and impatient.

I pretended to cough twice and said, "I'm sick. I just went to the hospital for a check-up. I didn't answer the phone because I was afraid you would worry. The doctor said that I caught a cold because I was too tired recently, and asked me to rest for a week."

"But what about this artificial intelligence competition? Chairman Smith has already said that the first place will definitely go to our school. Can you bear to disappoint him?"

"It's okay. I'm sick. Isn't there Ethan Smith? I've already handed the note to the teacher, and she agreed to my withdrawal. I'm really not feeling well, so I'm going to rest first."

After that, I hung up the phone.

After returning home, I immediately lay on the bed and started to review. If I hadn't participated in the competition, the following things would not have happened. I was too weak, and I just wanted to live a stable life with Nana in this life.

However, just as I was about to fall asleep, my cell phone rang again, this time it was my girlfriend Nana calling.

"Ray, what should I do? I'm sick and may need a kidney transplant. I need a lot of money!"

When I heard this, I quickly sat up and asked, "What's going on?"

Nana told me that she suddenly fainted today and was sent to the hospital by her classmates. The examination showed that she had uremia.

I was a little confused. In my previous life, Nana was fine until I was killed and had never been sick.

Is it God's destiny that Nana and I are separated and lovers are destined not to be together?
