The person who arrived was none other than Xiao Ran, whom they hadn't seen for a long time.

Jiang Ruan was puzzled; he had come, so why was he making such a fuss?

But now that he has fainted, it is almost impossible for him to ask anything. So, Jiang Ruan called for help, and everyone pulled him to a room where Xiao's mother took good care of him.

Jiang Ruan looked at the man in front of her, a hint of heartache and reluctance flashing in her eyes.

After all, it was his suggestion to come here to save Anxia, ​​and now that Xiaxia is better, he deserves the most credit.

She took a deep breath, concentrated, and used her healing skills to heal all the external wounds on his body.

Her hands radiated a soft light as she gently stroked his wounds, helping them heal quickly.

However, upon closer inspection, she couldn't help but frown.

It turned out that she discovered the hideous scar on his face was fake.

This discovery puzzled her, but she did not immediately set out to uncover the secret.

Jiang Ruan decided to respect his wishes and not touch this place that might make him uneasy.

She silently told herself that everyone has their own story, and this man was clearly no exception.

After letting out a long sigh, Jiang Ruan slowly stood up. Xiao's mother quickly stepped forward and asked, sobbing, "Ruan Ruan, how is your brother? Is he in any danger?"

That damned man! How dare he treat his own son like that? He's utterly shameless!

Xiao's mother was cursing Xiao's father all the time; she was the one who suffered the most from her son's injury.

"It's alright, Mom, don't worry. He's just a little weak. He just needs some rest. Let's go out first and come see him when he's rested."

Everyone nodded and followed Jiang Ruan out.

In the evening, Xiao's mother sent her men to report that Xiao Ran had woken up, but something seemed wrong, so she quickly called Jiang Ruan over to check on him.

When Jiang Ruan ran over, she was somewhat surprised because Xiao Ran had actually taken off his clothes and was dancing on the scorching ground. His figure was extremely charming, and if you ignored his appearance, he really was no different from a woman.

Xiao's mother, with her sharp eyes, spotted Jiang Ruan and rushed over, saying anxiously, "I never expected him to become like this. I was just watching over him, wiping his body, and changing his clothes, and he resisted so much. Later, when other people came, it was the same. He was pushed to the limit, and that's how he ended up like this."

As she spoke, wiping away tears, her voice choked with sobs, "I really don't know what to do. I'm afraid his condition will get worse, but I don't dare to push him too hard. You say he's fine, and even if he has some problems after waking up, we can let him recover slowly, but seeing him like this breaks my heart!"

Jiang Ruan felt a pang of pain in her heart upon hearing Xiao's mother's words. She gently held Xiao's mother's hand and comforted her, "Mom, don't worry too much. Maybe Xiao Ran needs some time and space to adjust himself. We can spend more time with him, talk to him, and let him feel warmth and care."

Xiao's mother nodded and gave Jiang Ruan a grateful look.

Jiang Ruan sighed, wondering what Xiao Ran had gone through, and what the resettlement center was like now. Why had Xiao Ran been put through such a ordeal?

Countless questions exploded in her mind, and she decided to find an opportunity to ask Xiao's mother to see if she could get more information about this from her.

At the same time, she also needs to find a way to help Xiao Ran get out of his predicament and rediscover the confident and sunny man he once was.

Because she always felt that Xiao's father must have done something to him, otherwise he wouldn't have become the inhuman, ghostly figure he is now.

Anxia, ​​having somehow gotten wind of the news, rushed over, her face filled with urgency and worry: "Ruanruan, where is he? How is he? My savior, is he really alright?!"

Seeing An Xia's anxious expression, Jiang Ruan's doubts deepened, but she still gently comforted him, "Don't worry, I've already checked him out. He's not in any immediate danger, it's just..."

She paused, hesitating whether to tell An Xia the truth. After all, this matter involved the Xiao family's privacy, and if it got out, it would probably cause unnecessary trouble.

However, Anxia seemed to have guessed something and interrupted her: "Was he seriously injured? It doesn't matter, as long as he's alive."

As she spoke, An Xia couldn't wait to see the man. Jiang Ruan sighed helplessly and had no choice but to lead her to the room.

When Anxia saw the man on the hospital bed, his face unrecognizable and his body wrapped in bandages, tears instantly welled up in her eyes. She choked out, "How did you become like this, Ruanruan? You must save him, you really must save him, otherwise my conscience will be burdened with guilt for the rest of my life..."

Jiang Ruan nodded, "Absolutely, don't worry."

As she spoke, Jiang Ruan immediately ran to Xiao Ran's side, took off his coat, surrounded him, and then took him into the room. She gave him a sedative and sprinkled some sleeping powder on him, making him fall into a deep sleep.

"Xiaxia, I think this matter is ultimately related to the resettlement office. After all, they are in charge of those people, so we must find a way to get them to handle things properly."

As for the rest of the people, we'll arrange for them to go there as soon as we find a suitable place. But before that, we need to find a way to get expert Liu Yu to help reinforce the houses further to ensure everyone's safety.

"Sure, reinforcement is no problem, but it will require a lot of materials and manpower, and it will also take a lot of time. Most importantly, although these things cost money, where are we going to get the money to buy them right now?"

As he spoke, Anxia pointed to a huge building not far away—that was the transit warehouse recently developed by the base. This transit warehouse could temporarily alleviate the problem of material reserves between infected and uninfected individuals.

Here, people can upload their surplus items to the transit warehouse and set prices using smart terminals or on-site operations; others can then search for and select the items they need. If they can't find the desired goods, they can ask staff if there are other ways to obtain them. In this way, not only is resource sharing and reuse achieved, but everyone also benefits more.

However, this process requires a significant investment of money to purchase the necessary materials and equipment, as well as to pay related service fees. For them at present, this expense is undoubtedly a heavy burden. Therefore, Anxia felt quite helpless in the face of this reality.
