Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

She simply covered herself with the quilt and stopped talking.

...What's wrong with hot water? It's obviously really useful.

Never mind, it’s understandable that you’re in a bad mood… After all, a woman’s menstrual period is just like a man’s egg replacement period, both are unbearable pains.

Bai Yu picked up the water bottle beside him, which was empty, so he took it away. It was just a piece of cake to get some hot water.

I just noticed that the nurses' station seems to have a supply of brown sugar.

He carried the thermos to the hot water room and quickly filled a bottle of hot water.

At the same time, in the ward on the same floor.

Su Ruoli was receiving an IV drip and pushed a rolling floor IV stand with the IV drip hanging on it into a ward. Two of her classmates were lying on the bed, talking and laughing.

After more than two days of recuperation, their physical condition had improved significantly. However, after all, they had been sealed off for more than a week, and all the students were a little weak.

So more than 30 students were transferred to the hospital for care and recuperation. After examination, except for some students who were injured, unconscious, and poisoned, everyone else was in good condition.

The poisoned students entered the detoxification treatment process, and the injured students received surgical treatment. The results were quite good. Everyone woke up yesterday and their bodies are gradually recovering.

"How are you doing?"

Su Ruoli walked into the ward and asked with a smile.

"Ruoli, why are you here? Didn't the doctor tell everyone to get some rest?"

Hua Li stood up hurriedly: "Hurry up and sit down, don't get tired."

The weakest among the dozens of people was undoubtedly Su Ruoli herself. When she was rescued, her vitality was already extremely weak. It was the jade dew brought by Chang Ye Si that came in handy. Otherwise, even if she was not exhausted, she would not have woken up so quickly.

"I've been lying down for over a day and can't quite calm down. I wanted to see everyone." Su Ruoli smiled happily, "I'm glad everyone's okay. I was worried that I might cause any sequelae."

"Please don't say that." Hua Li held her hand. "If you hadn't risked your life, everyone would have died in there... How could anyone blame you? Not to mention that everyone is fine, even if something did happen, it's not your turn to bear the responsibility, right?"

"Yes." Ruan Qingxue also nodded and said, "We are only slightly injured. The other seriously injured students are said to have passed the critical period. Don't worry."

"Yes, I've checked, and everyone looks good." Su Ruoli nodded and smiled, "Don't worry about me. The doctor told my mother that getting out of bed and moving around will help with recovery... What were you talking about just now? You seemed so happy?"

"We talked about two things." Hua Li acted very surprised: "I didn't expect Qingxue's cousin to be Captain Zhou from Changye Division. I didn't recognize her at all."

"She's my distant cousin, but I've known her since childhood." Ruan Qingxue waved her hand and explained, "She boarded at my house for a while when she was little. We're very close, but I didn't know she was a detective at the Changye Division. Besides, this is my cousin's achievement, and it has nothing to do with me. She got to this point entirely through her own hard work."

Su Ruoli thought for a moment: "Captain Zhou..."

"Oh, right. You just woke up yesterday, so you didn't see it." Hua Li nodded. "She was really nervous. She almost cried when she hugged Qingxue. Her eyes were red."

"Alright, alright, stop talking." Ruan Qingxue patted Hua Li's shoulder and said, "Let's talk about what happened just now."

"Yes?" Su Ruoli tilted her head.

"Sun Yang and Gu Yuerong from our class seem to be dating, and there are two other couples too." Hua Li revealed a gossipy expression. "I overheard one of the couples confessing their love... It was a very immature scene, but they both succeeded. What a surprise."

"From a psychological perspective, this is called the suspension bridge effect," Ruan Qingxue said seriously. "A sense of crisis creates a mutual affection. After all, you've been through life and death together, so it's easier for feelings to blossom."

Su Ruoli nodded, eyes full of envy as she said, "That's really great, very enviable. Originally there were only two couples in the class, but now more than a quarter of them are in love."

"I hope it won't affect my studies, even though the school doesn't forbid it." Hua Li crossed his legs, soles touching soles. "But it will be easy to separate after the college entrance exam. Do we have to have a long-distance relationship?"

"Respect, blessings." Ruan Qingxue clasped her hands and smiled. "Don't worry about the rest. No one has confessed their love to you anyway."

Hua Li snorted softly, brushing her hair over her shoulders with her right hand. "I don't like these childish boys. People of my age are not to my taste."

"Oh, so you like little shotas." Su Ruoli expressed his understanding.

"...Puff!" Hua Li choked on her water. "Don't talk nonsense. I just like to see handsome men kissing me."

"She is like this." Ruan Qingxue smiled and covered her lips.

"What about you?" Su Ruoli asked curiously, "What type do you like?"

Ruan Qingxue was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I don't like people my age either. Mature people are more attractive, right? My classmates are nice, but they lack a bit of appeal."

"Just like him?" Hua Li was about to say it.

Su Ruoli and Ruan Qingxue covered their lips at the same time and gave her serious looks - she couldn't say anything.

Hua Li nodded, and they let go of each other's hands. She said cautiously, "It's not that serious, right?"

"A favor must be repaid. It cannot be said." Ruan Qingxue said seriously, "They saved us. Only those who know how to repay a favor are truly Great Xia people."

Hua Li touched his aching chin: "Someone's grip was a bit too strong just now. I suspect it was somewhat personal... Xiao Qingxue, are you attracted to that handsome uncle... mmmmmm!"

Ruan Qingxue covered her mouth again and blushed, "You're the only one who talks too much!"

Su Ruoli watched them playing and looking out the window thoughtfully.

The two girls separated and quieted down at the same time: "What's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?"

"...I'll have to stay in the hospital for a while." Su Ruoli looked out the window, holding her chin, "I don't know how things are going at home."

"Didn't your mother just come to see you?"

“…”Su Ruoli shook her head.

"Oh~!" Hua Li stretched out his words, "I understand, I understand everything! There is only one truth!"

Ruan Qingxue pressed Hua Li's forehead and pushed it back, then said to Su Ruoli, "When you were still unconscious the day before yesterday, Bai Yu came to see you and stayed for three hours before leaving. Even if he didn't come yesterday, he should have come today... Do you want to go back to your ward and wait?"

Su Ruoli's eyes lit up: "I'll go back now."

She stood up, pushed the IV stand out of the ward, and her pace couldn't help but quicken a little.

Just as she turned the corner, a figure in front of her made her subconsciously prepare to avoid it, and the other party also stopped and prepared to retreat.

The two looked up, their eyes met, and they paused at the same time.

Su Ruoli's eyes were like starry sky lights that had been turned on, bright but not dazzling, full of deep and fantastic magnificence, and then her eyes slightly curved into a crescent shape.

Bai Yu looked at the subtle changes in the girl's eyes, from surprise to delight and then to happiness. He didn't need a mind reader to tell how sincere her smile was, without any trace of fakery.

He just opened his mouth to say 'long time no see'.

Then the other person reached out and pressed his lips.

The smell of hydrogen peroxide in the air was covered by the faint scent of turmeric on the other person.

"Now, I should speak first. I have so many things to say, but... this should be the first thing I say."

Su Ruoli retracted her finger and smiled faintly: "I'm back~"

Bai Yu was silent for a second, raised his hand slightly, and looked at the shadow under his feet again.

He raised his face and smiled back: "Welcome back."

Chapter 57 No Shura Field

While greeting Su Ruoli with a smile.

Mr. Bai's survival instinct made him subconsciously move his left hand from his side to his back.

Hide the blue kettle.

This can't be seen by Su Ruoli...

Although it doesn't matter if it's seen, I always feel that being seen will bring some inexplicable trouble.

The atmosphere is good now, so let's send it back to her. The kettle is at the nurse's station, and you can come back to get it later.

But Su Ruoli obviously noticed his unnatural little movements.

"What's that kettle in your hand?"

"...I just got some hot water. The people at the nurses' station seem quite busy, so I volunteered."

Bai Yu blurted out without much thought.

He himself didn't understand why he needed to tell such a lie.

Perhaps it was because Miss Su Ruoli's smile immediately turned into a fifteen-degree Celsius smile and a thoughtful expression, as well as some unfriendly guesses in her eyes?

"Oh, so that's how it is." Su Ruoli smiled and nodded, accepting this explanation.

However, at this time, a nurse came over and handed over a bag of brown sugar: "Here, young man, this is the brown sugar you asked for."

Bai Yu turned his head stiffly: "..."

"Hurry up and take it over! Isn't the girl in a lot of pain? Drink some brown sugar water and she'll get better soon." The nurse kindly said, "These past few days have been really tough, and the little girl is suffering even more."

Bai Yu stretched out his hand, reluctantly but still took the brown sugar and said thank you.

"I...thank you."

"You're welcome. It's my duty." The nurse smiled brightly, seeming a little silly.

Bai Yu turned back only after the nurse turned around to continue her ward rounds.

"Little girl?" Su Ruoli blinked repeatedly, his eyes filled with deeper questions: "Mu Tou, who are you talking about?"

"indeed……"

"It can't be me." Su Ruoli blocked his excuse in advance: "You know I'm not from these days."

...No, I don't know, I don't know anything, don't talk nonsense.

"Indeed not." Bai Yu's mind automatically searched for the answer: "You are around the 20th of every month."

"So who does this belong to?" Su Ruoli continued to ask.

It turns out that one lie requires countless lies to cover it up.

What is this? Is this retribution?

I was just being kind and gave Tao Rusu, who couldn't walk, a bottle of hot water and some brown sugar.

Bai Yu gave up resisting and answered truthfully, "It was a girl in the ward. I saw her on my way here. She happened to have relatives visiting and couldn't walk, so I brought her a bottle of water and some brown sugar."

"Is this the volunteer you just mentioned?"

"That's right."

"Well, let's go together." Su Ruoli pushed the IV stand forward.

"Together?"

"Yes, together, can't I go?"

"can."

As Bai Yu walked forward, Su Ruoli took his arm.

"What happened to you? You suddenly became like a wooden man, and your hands and feet are on the same side."

"I'm not used to you doing this."

“It was like this when I was little.”

"That was when I was a kid." Bai Yu tried to pull his hand back, but it didn't move at all.

Miss Su Ruoli's grip was a bit too strong. She squinted her eyes and smiled, "Come to think of it, is that girl an acquaintance of yours? Tell me who she is. Maybe I know her."

"Yes……"

"Ok?"

"Tao Rusu."

"Hmm, I actually know her." Su Ruoli recalled, "The top student in Class 3. She's amazing, one of the best students in school... That's not right, why is she in the hospital too?"

"That's a long story."

"Then let's make it short. You are not allowed to hide it from me." Su Ruoli looked at him seriously: "We agreed that secrets can be shared, but not kept to ourselves."

"Then can you tell me what happened to you in the shadow world?" Bai Yu asked back in a testing tone.

"Sure." Su Ruoli said without hesitation: "I can tell you everything."

"Then how were you saved?"

"Of course it's Miss Ruoli's efforts."

"Are all the students the result of your hard work alone?"

“…Of course!”

Su Ruoli puffed out her chest and said proudly, "Isn't it powerful?"
