In Battle Through the Heavens, lying down makes you stronger.

Chapter 44 The Little Fairy Doctor's Resentment

Xiao Ran then began to ponder: what exactly is Little Fairy Doctor's attitude towards him now?

Although he knew he was incredibly charming, Little Fairy Doctor was no ordinary girl.

To truly possess her, you must first win her heart.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Ran's eyes suddenly lit up.

Instead, he spoke directly to the system in his mind.

"System, give me a twelve-hour lying-down cultivation timer."

……

After getting up, the little fairy doctor quickly washed up and then hurriedly went out to collect herbs with a small basket.

Judging from her posture, anyone who didn't know better would think she had discovered some third-tier herb and was in a hurry to pick it.

Around noon.

The Little Fairy Doctor returned to her room carrying a basket of herbs, along with a food box.

Many mercenaries greeted Little Fairy Doctor with smiles along the way.

"Little Fairy Doctor has returned from gathering herbs."

Little Fairy Doctor smiled and nodded.

"Uncle Kagang, hello! No missions today?"

The mercenary laughed and said, "We just went on a mission yesterday and made a fortune. The whole team is taking a day off today."

Then, looking at the food box in Little Fairy Doctor's hand, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise,

"Little Fairy Doctor, why did you bring the food back yourself?"

"Are you short of firewood at home? If not, I'll bring a few other people to help you find some more."

"Thank you, Uncle Kagan! We still have plenty of firewood at home. I just thought these buns looked good, so I brought two to try."

Little Fairy Doctor shook her head repeatedly and said with a smile.

Kagan nodded.

"Oh, I see."

"You are the benefactor of all the mercenaries in our Green Mountain Town. If you need any help, just ask."

"Thank you, Uncle Kagan!" Little Fairy Doctor nodded with a smile.

"Okay, you go ahead and do your work. Just let me know if you need anything!"

"Okay, goodbye Uncle Gargan."

After greeting everyone, Little Fairy Doctor headed towards her courtyard.

Along the way, they encountered many mercenaries who greeted them.

Only after returning to her own courtyard and closing the gate did Little Fairy Doctor finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After putting down the basket full of herbs, Little Fairy Doctor wiped the fine beads of sweat from her forehead with her sleeve.

But then he noticed that his own courtyard seemed very quiet.

He was slightly taken aback, his eyes widening.

He murmured in astonishment.

"That guy, did he just lie in bed all day?"

She carried a food box containing steamed buns to her boudoir.

The door remained tightly shut.

I tapped it gently several times.

But nothing happened.

Little Fairy Doctor simply pushed the door open and went inside.

Just as she expected!

Looking at Xiao Ran, who was still lying quietly on the bed, Little Fairy Doctor rolled her eyes helplessly.

She pouted and muttered under her breath, "Like a pig! All you do is sleep! I've already come back from gathering herbs!"

My heart was filled with mixed feelings.

Just today, while collecting herbs,

Many of the mercenaries in her team asked her with concern if she hadn't slept well the night before, otherwise why would she have dark circles under her eyes?

However, instead of immediately reporting Xiao Ran in front of everyone,

Then drive him away and take back the Little Fairy Doctor's bed and blankets that belong to her.

Instead of telling the truth, he said that he had stayed up late studying pharmacology last night, which was why he had missed his rest.

To prevent Xiao Ran from going hungry, she bought several steamed buns after returning home, knowing that she wouldn't have time to cook.

And what about that wretched guy? He's still fast asleep?!

Little Fairy Doctor felt extremely aggrieved and resentful.

The feeling is like a wife who has been busy at work all day coming home to find her husband fast asleep in bed or playing video games.

Little Fairy Doctor put down the food box, her eyes darted around, and a smug smile appeared on her lips.

Then she tiptoed closer, extended her slender fingers, and gently poked Xiao Ran's face.

However, after being poked several times, Xiao Ran didn't budge an inch...

Little Fairy Doctor only felt a crow cawing as it flew over her head.

Suddenly, I was startled.

"Has this guy passed out in his sleep?"

Thinking of this, Little Fairy Doctor hurriedly sat down by the bed and reached out to check Xiao Ran's breath.

After realizing that everything was normal, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, with a "whoosh," she stood up angrily, one hand on her hip and the other shaking Xiao Ran's body.

"Hey! Lazybones! Get up and eat!"

"What time is it? Still sleeping?"

And then, that was it.

Xiao Ran still did not react.

Little Fairy Doctor leaned forward slightly, shaking Xiao Ran's arm vigorously with both hands.

"Lazybones! Get up!"

However, Xiao Ran simply turned over, turned his back to Little Fairy Doctor, and fell asleep again.

"you……"

Little Fairy Doctor stared in astonishment at Xiao Ran, who had turned over and continued to sleep soundly, her eyebrows furrowing in disbelief.

Just then, Xiao Ran's calm voice reached my ears.

"I'm recovering from my injury, don't bother me."

"you……"

The Little Fairy Doctor puffed out her cheeks in anger and roared...

"You were perfectly fine last night, and you even bullied me. How did you end up injured? Are you playing me for a fool?"

"No, you're playing me."

Xiao Ran righteously corrected Little Fairy Doctor's words.

"What... what do you mean?" Little Fairy Doctor asked, frowning.

"The literal meaning!"

"Also, I'm not hungry now, thank you." Xiao Ran's voice came slowly.

"Hmph, I can't be bothered with you! It's better if you go hungry!"

Little Fairy Doctor gave a light snort, turned around and placed the food box on the table, preparing to enjoy it alone.

But looking at Xiao Ran, I still felt it was necessary to show some concern.

He then got up and went to the bedside, asking with concern,

"Hey, are you alright?"

"I am a doctor. If you have any injuries, would you like me to examine you?"

"Cough cough..."

Xiao Ran choked on his saliva.

But things quickly calmed down.

"I'm also an alchemist, did I say anything? Some illnesses can't be cured by medicine alone."

"Are you really an alchemist?" Little Fairy Doctor asked, raising an eyebrow.

Xiao Ran raised his hand, and a small, pure white bottle flew out of his storage ring and headed towards Little Fairy Doctor.

This is a first-tier pill that Xiao Ran obtained during a mission in the past.

Little Fairy Doctor quickly reached out her hands to catch the bottle.

Looking at the warm, smooth jade bottle, I curiously opened the stopper.

As soon as it was opened, a rich medicinal aroma wafted out.

Little Fairy Doctor's eyes lit up immediately.

"Wow! This is a pill! A real pill!"

"Consider this compensation for the two days I kept you from getting a proper rest."

"Don't worry, I won't go back on my promise to teach you alchemy."

"I……"

The Little Fairy Doctor instinctively wanted to explain, to say that she didn't mean to...

But when the words came out, I felt very wronged.

"Hmph! So what if you're an alchemist?"

Then she turned her head and angrily tried to smash the bottle back in her hand.

But after thinking about it, I carefully put the stopper back on.

He carefully hid the jade bottle close to his body, as if it were a precious treasure.

Just as Little Fairy Doctor was overjoyed about the pill, she heard Xiao Ran's voice.

"If there's nothing else, you can go back now. Goodbye. You're just disturbing my sleep and playing tricks on me."

"Fine, let's go! Who's afraid of who?!"

"You think I care about you?!"

Little Fairy Doctor snorted coldly and turned to walk towards the door.

But when they arrived at the door, just as they were about to open it...

But then he suddenly came to his senses.

Turning to look at Xiao Ran,

"Wait a minute, I remember this place being my room, right?"
