Chapter 113 Doesn’t he have a mouth?

"Brother Lu, I asked Dr. F about it the moment I woke up that day. He said my right leg injury wasn't the most serious. Although I've temporarily regained consciousness, I still need to be transferred to Uptown for major surgery as soon as possible to completely eliminate the toxins in my body, right?"

Lu Lianbai stood by the window of the ward and nodded calmly.

Zhou Chuan looked at him again and continued, "But given your current situation, Brother Lu, how many lives do you have to risk to earn such a huge sum of money for surgery? If I had known this would happen, Brother Lu shouldn't have dragged me back from the battlefield half a year ago. I was already half dead at the time, and death wouldn't have been a big deal. But Brother Lu, you're different."

"The blood feud of the Nine Fleets has not yet been avenged, and Brother Lu's stigma has not yet been cleared. I don't want Brother Lu to waste all his time and energy on a crippled and useless person like me."

Lu Lianbai turned on the communicator and replied to the message on the worn screen with his slender fingers. He waited until Zhou Chuan stopped talking before asking, "Are you done?"

Zhou Chuan: “…Yeah.”

"The surgery fee will be collected in a few days."

Lu Lianbai put away the communicator and said, "Take good care of your injuries, you don't have to worry about the rest," then turned and was about to leave.

Zhou Chuan hesitated to speak. Before Lu Lianbai opened the door and left, he couldn't help but ask, "The last time Xin Lun came to see me, he said that Brother Lu's child had found the garbage planet a while ago, but Brother Lu drove the child away. Brother Lu, is this true?"

Lu Lianbai placed his hand on the handle, as if he had remembered something. He remained silent for a second or two, but a faint smile appeared on his lips. "Why are you asking about this?"

After saying that, he opened the door and left.

Hess drank a whole bottle of ice-cold sweet water by the window at the end of the corridor, and only then did he feel a lot better.

However, when he returned to the ward, Lu Lianbai had already left. Instead, Zhou Chuan had sat up from the bed at some point and was staring intently at the scene outside the window, wondering what he was thinking.

Heszhi couldn't help rolling his eyes. He looked at the time and knew it was time to take the medicine. He packed the pills in advance and went to the water dispenser to pour hot water.

I was counting the pills at the same time and ended up getting burned by the hot water that overflowed from the cup.

Hess, a sea creature, couldn't stand such a temperature. His fingers were burned and the skin peeled off. He immediately covered his hands and screamed.

Zhou Chuan, who was originally thinking about something, immediately turned around and sat up straight when he heard the voice, "What's wrong with you?"

Hess was in so much pain that tears streamed down his face. After a long while, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sound, "What else can I do? It's all for the sake of serving you, my lord."

"..."

Zhou Chuan quickly realized that Hess was going to pour him hot water for his medicine. His expression changed slightly and he supported himself on the side of the bed with his hands. He wanted to go over and take a look, but the injury on his right leg made it difficult for him to move.

After a long while, Hess finally recovered. He put one hand behind his back and poured water and pills with the other hand. He endured the pain and ordered, "Take the medicine quickly."

Seeing that his eyes were red from the pain, Zhou Chuan stopped provoking him and took the pills obediently. Then he asked, "Can I see your hand?"

Hess stretched out his hand in confusion, "What are you looking at?"

Zhou Chuan looked at his fingers that were red and swollen from being burned, frowning solemnly, "Go apply some burn ointment."

Hess, however, made a "huh" sound and pulled his hand back, saying as if it were normal, "You think you're dying like this, but I'll just be in pain for a while and then I'll regenerate and be back to normal."

Zhou Chuan looked worried: "So you've been like this since you were little? You just endure when you're hurt until your regeneration function is triggered?"

"Is there something wrong?" Hess had no idea what was wrong with him. After feeding him the medicine, he forced him back to the bed. He checked the time and said, "I'll come over at two o'clock this afternoon to take you to Dr. F for treatment. Until then, you better behave yourself. If you make trouble again, I'll throw you out the window."

After saying that, he closed the ward door and left without paying any attention to Zhou Chuan who was still staring at his burned fingers.

In fact, his fingers were still quite painful, but Hess was not used to showing weakness in front of humans, so he ran out in a hurry, and his tears couldn't be controlled and burst out. He wiped away the tears with his intact hand and ran to the end of the corridor to feel the cold wind.

When the pain in the burned fingers gradually subsides, the regeneration system is triggered, and the fingers that were originally burned, red, swollen and broken regenerate little by little until they are completely restored to their original intact state.

The words Zhou Chuan said at that time involuntarily flashed through his mind. For some reason, Hess looked at his regenerated fingers and felt confused for a moment like a child.

But it was only for a moment, he soon smelled something, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he subconsciously turned around, and sure enough, he saw a familiar pink figure standing on the other side of the corridor.

Hess rushed over excitedly without thinking, "Mianmian!"

However, when he opened his arms to throw himself into Jing Weiman's arms, Jing Weiman calmly raised his hands and pressed his head, stopping him from jumping.

Hess cried out in grievance, "I missed you so much!"

Jing Weimian lowered his palm, rubbed his head, and said, "Hmm."

Hess was finally coaxed into standing up straight, and couldn't help asking her, "Mianmian, are you doing well in the mermaid kingdom?"

Jing Weimian said "not bad", then took out Hess's favorite strawberry-flavored lollipop from his coat pocket and gave it to him.

He immediately took it with a happy face, and couldn't wait to open it and lick it, "Sure enough, Mian Mian is the best."

Jing Weimian watched him eat for a while before asking casually, "Did you tell him my birthday?"

Hess ate the candy and mumbled "Hmm?"

"409."

Someone who smiled sincerely in an interview after a racing event and said he didn't know her, but ended up using her birthday as a code name.

Hess now understood that the "he" Jing Weimian was referring to was Lu Lianbai. He nodded and explained, "I didn't intentionally reveal Mianmian's birthday to him. It was Lu Lianbai who was too cunning. I didn't react immediately and was tricked by him!"

Seeing that Jing Weiman didn't say anything after listening, Hess thought of something more important. He looked around to make sure that no one was around, then lowered his voice and spoke seriously.

"By the way, Mianmian, I haven't told you what happened half a year ago. Mianmian, you don't know, half a year ago, Lu Lianbai--"

"Need not."

Jing Weimian interrupted what he had just said.

Hess was startled: "Huh?"

"Hasn't he got a mouth himself?"

Jing Weimian leaned against the wall and snorted coldly, "Since he doesn't intend to tell me himself, there's no need for you to tell me anything."
