Cheng Zhen collapsed, unresponsive and lifeless.
Jiang Wan was inexplicably startled; this was the first time she had seen him like this since they had known each other.
Even though he was extremely weak after fighting his way out of a horde of zombies in Xiashan Town, he was never as emaciated as he is now.
She immediately realized that he was injured, and seriously so!
The twins, who were holding hands and heading home after him, were also frightened by his condition.
Although the two kids had agreed to let him experience the hardships of taking care of a child, and they were willing to put him through the wringer, they were both scared when they saw him looking completely dead.
"Mom, is he... is he going to die?"
Jiang Xiaoxin's voice trembled involuntarily.
“No, we won’t,” Jiang Wan echoed her, “Don’t stay here, go and call Dr. Huang and Wu Xuan over.”
She herself struggled to drag the person into the room.
It's going to be a disaster. Because she hasn't left the house for the past two days, in order not to waste manpower, the superhumans responsible for her safety have all been withdrawn from the wilderness and are speeding up the clearing of mutated plants in order to expand the city's protective shield.
So for a time, there were no adults around who could lend her a hand.
Unfortunately, the man looked sturdy and was indeed very strong. He collapsed to the ground without any apparent feeling, and she couldn't even pull him away.
Jiang Xiaoshu frowned and gave her younger sister a push: "Go and call someone, I'll help Mom."
Jiang Xiaoxin said "Oh" and ran off quickly to call Grandma Huang first, since she was an adult and could help her mother.
Jiang Xiaoshu then went to her mother's side and helped her drag the people into the house.
Huang Ying arrived quickly, along with Yu Fen. He had just noticed that the team leader was acting strangely, so he put away the finished product made with Ω and rushed over immediately.
Jiang Wan breathed a sigh of relief. With just her and Xiao Shu, they really couldn't move Cheng Zhen. They could only barely drag him to the sofa in the living room to lie down.
"Quick, move him to the bed." He must be injured; he needs to rest in bed.
Yu Fen immediately picked up his eldest son in a princess carry, his heart heavy even more than when he himself was seriously injured, and walked into the inner room.
"Hey! Wait a minute!" Jiang Wan's eyelids twitched as she stopped him. "Where are you going to send it?"
She pointed to the next room with her slender hand, "That's your boss's bedroom."
"..." Yu Fen harbored a little resentment but dared not express it. The boss was injured, but his sister-in-law was still being stubborn with him, not even letting him lie down on the bed. See? Women are just stingy and troublesome!
Therefore, he was right to refuse to have a woman, even at the cost of his life!
"There's only one bed here for Xiao Wan. Captain Cheng is sleeping here to recover, but where will she and the child sleep?"
Huang Ying slapped him. Although she couldn't understand the true relationship between Jiang Wan and Cheng Zhen, it wasn't hard to tell from the fact that the two had twins and Cheng Zhen was clinging to her so much that Cheng Zhen must have wronged them in the past.
As a woman herself, she would definitely side with Jiang Wan on this matter.
Now that he said that, it seemed like he hadn't thought things through. Yu Fen immediately put aside his dissatisfaction and went next door with the captain in his arms.
Huang Ying gave Cheng Zhen a full-body examination, while Wu Xuan studied on the side.
Cheng Zhen had more than a dozen wounds of varying sizes all over his body. One of them was on his thigh, which was probably caused by a sharp weapon. The wound was deep and, because it was not treated in time, it was showing signs of becoming inflamed.
He collapsed unconscious, possibly due to excessive blood loss from injuries, exhaustion, or overexertion of his supernatural abilities.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; as long as their lives were not in danger, that was good.
Huang Ying prescribed several kinds of medicine, including anti-inflammatory and antibacterial ones. Jiang Wan searched through the tree hole space and, luckily, found them all.
Wu Xuan then took out a small glass bottle containing a dark ointment: "This is a wound medicine I made myself, boiled with herbs. It's very effective."
He tested it on himself when he made it, and later used it on the wounded city guards who returned from the wilderness. The feedback was consistent: it worked very well!
Jiang Wan was greatly surprised: "Did you really make this yourself?"
It seems Sun Sanhai had a good eye back then; this child is indeed talented, having such good fortune at such a young age.
Jiang Wan accepted the gift and expressed her sincere gratitude.
Jiang Xiaoxin also spoke up quietly, "Thank you."
This was probably the first time Jiang Xiaoxin had taken the initiative and genuinely spoken to him since they reunited.
Wu Xuan's lips moved, but after a long while he simply shook his head: "This is what I should do."
He won't make excuses for his past mistakes. He'll see what happens in the future. He'll definitely treat her like his own sister and do his best to take care of everyone she cares about.
Jiang Xiaoxin held her brother's hand and stood obediently to the side, ignoring her former best friend.
Although her mother explained to her afterwards that Wu Xuan was forced and used by his mother and that he was just a child who couldn't resist, she still couldn't accept that her best friend had deceived her. Seeing him always reminded her of how "stupid" she had been back then, no wonder her brother always said she was stupid.
Sigh, she lowered her head, pouted, and looked a little sad. She was clearly very smart and could provide a lot of help to her mother and everyone else.
No one noticed the emotional fluctuations among the children.
After Jiang Wan took the medicine, she felt something was wrong. Cheng Zhen was a man, and many of his injuries were on his chest, abdomen, thighs, and other similar areas. So she quickly shoved the medicine bottle into Yu Fen's hand and said, "You take this."
"Huh?" Yu Fen started complaining again. Why was his sister-in-law still rejecting his boss at a time like this?
The eldest brother is injured, so why won't she even apply some medicine?
But he noticed Jiang Wan's bright red ears and realized in a second: she was shy!
Sigh, see? Women are just so dramatic, so troublesome!
So he turned around and called over one of his brothers, who wasn't a superhuman, and asked him to clean the captain's wounds, apply medicine, and change the dressings.
Jiang Wan tossed aside the hot medicine and said, "I'll go make him some soup."
He ran away quickly, and from behind, he looked like he was fleeing in panic.
Yu Fen curled his lip even more. What happened now? How did he manage to scare his usually aloof and resolute sister-in-law, who never flinched even when faced with zombies and mutated plants, like this?
Ugh, women are such a hassle!
It wasn't that he was unwilling to take care of the eldest brother personally; he was just genuinely busy. Old Chen had given him an ultimatum: all the mutated plants on the hill behind the forest farm had to be eradicated within a week, and then the city's protective shield had to be expanded along with the forest farm so that all the existing plants on the mountain could resume photosynthesis.
With time running out and the task pressing, he rushed out of the camp and, without paying attention, collided head-on with a bicycle.
He was fine, but the bicycle and the cyclist were badly injured.
"Uh, I'm sorry." Knowing he was in the wrong, Yu Fen quickly reached out to help him up.
"Are you alright?" He seemed fine, which was good; he was in a hurry.
"Something's wrong." The girl clutched her shoulder, indicating that she was injured.
Forehead……
Yu Fen: Did he encounter a staged accident scammer?
