Jiang Geng was exhausted and seriously injured. He was pushed out of the emergency room and slept the whole time.
The woman he was protecting in his arms was also unconscious.
Xue Can arranged a double ward for the two of them to facilitate care.
It was late at night and he couldn't return to his stronghold, so he spent the night on the sofa in the ward.
Early the next morning, Jiang Geng opened his eyes and wanted to move but found that he couldn't. After looking around, he realized that he was lying in the ward.
Xue Can reclined on the sofa and fell asleep. On the bed next to him lay the woman he had tried so hard to save.
Phew...
I feel completely at ease now.
It is difficult for Xue Can to fall asleep outside. As soon as Jiang Geng makes a move, he wakes up alertly.
The man rubbed his face and subconsciously wanted to smoke a cigarette. Then he realized that he was in the ward, so he resisted and rubbed it with his impatient fingers a few times.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
"Help me raise the head of the bed."
"There are so many things."
Xue Can stood up , pressed a button, and Jiang Geng's bedside slowly rose up.
"Actually, it's nothing. When I was on a mission, I encountered an accident. She saved me, but I got H-ro3. You know this poison is only effective in Imperial City, so I had to take her with me first. Return to the Imperial Capital in one step.” "Wow, Xue Can, do you have any conscience?!" Jiang Geng complained, "Originally, the task of escorting the delegation this time had nothing to do with me?! Didn't you suddenly change your mind and ask me to do this task? That’s why this happened.”
“I’m almost dead, Xue Can, you have to compensate me!”
Xue Can smiled: “I didn’t force you. ”
Since he decided not to participate in this mission, the security position of the visiting delegation has become vacant.
Because the decision was made just before departure, Xue Can contacted Jiang Geng in a responsible manner and asked him if he was interested.
Of course Jiang Geng is interested. Who wouldn’t want to be able to establish a relationship with the government?
Besides, there was a slight conflict between the Sharp Knife Mercenary Group and the government, so they were not included in the list for this security recruitment.
This is also a key step in easing the relationship.
Jiang Geng acted rogue: "I don't care."
"Okay, you can have a good rest." Xue Can looked at the weather outside, "I should go."
>
“Wait.” Jiang Geng stopped him, “Don’t tell my family about my return.”
“Yes.”
Xue Can nodded. While walking out, "I'm not interested in being a talkative woman."
"Brat." Jiang Geng muttered, and from the corner of his eye, he noticed that the eyelashes of the woman in the bed next to him were trembling.
"Sang Yue?" he shouted softly.
Sang Yue pushed hard and finally opened her eyes.
There was no yellow sand all over the sky, no strong wind that hurt people's cheeks, and no strange beasts that could eat people. She was in a high-end-looking room, with rhythmic ringing in her ears. with the sounds of various instruments.
The burning pain still remains in my chest, but it has become much less intense than before.
After more than ten seconds, his consciousness slowly returned, and he turned around and saw Jiang Geng.
“Are we...saved?” His throat felt hoarse as if it had been rubbed hard by sand.
Jiang Geng's heart completely returned to his stomach: "Well, we are saved."
"Is this the... imperial capital you said?" Sang Yue's soft eyes fell. From the window, through the wind and sand, you can vaguely see the outline of the building.
"Yes, don't think too much first and have a good rest." Jiang Geng gathered some strength and rang the call bell.
Soon the nurse and doctor came over, and he asked them to check Sang Yue again. After careful inspection and questioning, Sang Yue's condition was already very stable.
"It will take several days for the toxins in this lady's body to be completely metabolized. She has multiple soft tissue contusions on her body and a slight fracture of her foot bones. It is recommended that she stay in the hospital for two days and then go home to rest."
Jiang Geng: "Okay, I understand, thank you doctor."
The doctor looked at Jiang Geng's condition again, told the nurse some nursing matters, and then left.
Sang Yue and Jiang Geng were suddenly the only ones left in the ward.
Sang Yue’s eyes were blank, looking at the ceiling not knowing what she was thinking.
She traveled to this unknown planet for half a month, and was unlucky to be living in the wild desert.
Along with her, there is also the personal space that she has had since childhood.
Fortunately, she has the habit of hoarding goods and has all kinds of supplies in her portable space. Otherwise, she would not be able to survive alone in the desert.
I thought living in the desert would be miserable enough, but I didn't expect that there were man-eating monsters in the desert. In the most thrilling time, she was almost eaten.
Fortunately, a tornado blew up from the ground and swept her and the monster into it.
The good news is that she is temporarily out of danger of being eaten.
The bad news is that the person is caught in the air and it is not known whether he can land safely.
Perhaps she has some koi attributes in her body. After the tornado passed by, she only suffered minor injuries.
And that afternoon, she also rescued Jiang Geng and made a request to him.
“Can you take me to a place with people?”
She was fed up with living alone in the endless desert, and she wanted to return to normal human society.
With her abilities, it is not difficult to live a good life.
Jiang Geng agreed, but within two days, she contracted the H-ro3 virus that she accidentally contracted while saving Jiang Geng.
She didn't know much about what happened after that, but judging from now, Jiang Geng should have fulfilled his promise to her.
"Thank you." Sang Yue thanked her in a low voice, "Jiang Geng, I will always remember your kindness."
"You are too polite to say that. Besides, didn't you save me first?" Jiang Geng wanted to pat his chest, but this action was a bit too big for him, so he could only give up angrily, "From now on, you will hang out with me in the imperial capital, and I will ensure that you eat well."
Sang Yue didn't say yes, nor did she say no.
After meeting Jiang Geng, before she fainted from the poison, she already had a basic understanding of this new world.
When she first crossed over, she thought she had fallen into the desert, which was why the surrounding environment was so desolate.
Unexpectedly, the environmental damage of this planet is so serious that it is even beyond repair.
What a bad enough place.
But she didn't panic too much. The supplies in her space were enough for her to live comfortably for a lifetime, and she didn't have to worry about her livelihood at all.
As long as she is here, let her take care of herself and let her have a deeper understanding of the world during this period of recuperation.
Sang Yue’s injury was less serious than Jiang Geng’s, and she could get out of bed the next day.
The first thing she did when she got out of bed was to take a shower.
She hasn’t taken a shower since she came here, so she can only wipe it with a wet tissue twice.
For Sang Yue, who loves to be clean, this is simply torture. Now that she can take a bath, she can't control herself at all.
This bath lasted for a full hour. Jiang Geng was a little uneasy and almost pressed the call bell to ask the nurse to come over and check on the situation.
With a creak, the bathroom door opened, and Sang Yue walked out with a pink face.
Jiang Geng’s careless expression froze instantly, and his eyes widened.
"You? Sang Yue?"
