After enduring a month of torture, Pang Da was almost unrecognizable. After resting for about ten days, he was finally able to get out of bed with great difficulty.
His wrist tendons were severed, so he was supporting his weight entirely with his elbows.
The first thing he did was struggle to get off the bed, kneel in front of Deputy General Chen and kowtow repeatedly, making "ah ah ah" sounds, his eyes filled with tears, full of gratitude and determination to be loyal.
Deputy General Chen looked down at him.
"Although your tendons are severed, you are not completely unusable. You can still manage to write a few words. If you can't use your hands, then practice using your toes. The reason I'm saving you is because you do have some brains and can be used by me."
Ponda nodded repeatedly, then let out another series of "ah ah ah" sounds.
A deep hatred welled up in his eyes. Right now, the person he hated most was not Qiao Lian'er, nor the Qiao family, but Vice General He.
The first thing he had to do was to properly repay Vice General He for the "favors" he had received during this period.
So he dipped his elbow in ink and clumsily wrote a crooked character "He" on the ground.
"Alright." Deputy General Chen smiled: "Then let him be finished."
During this period, in order to protect Pang Da, he and Deputy General He had already fallen out and could no longer tolerate each other.
“Once Deputy General He is out of the picture, one of our people will take his place.”
It should be noted that in order to win people's hearts, Ponda had gone to great lengths to win over those captains and lieutenants.
If someone gets promoted, then they're on the same side.
So what if he's crippled? He'll still regain his former glory.
Qiao Lian'er ate this gossip and left silently. What followed was internal strife and infighting, which had nothing to do with her anymore.
She now commands a large army, and given Panda's physical condition, the limit of his ability to get up is unlikely to exceed hers.
But she wanted to see him, like a dog, dragging his crippled body, struggling in this world.
After some more time, Pangda was able to walk with difficulty, and his hand had healed somewhat, but it was absolutely impossible for him to return to normal.
He went to Lingxiao Academy to see Pang You.
Pang You knew that something must have happened since Pang Da hadn't shown up for so long.
Seeing that Pang Da had lost his tongue and his tendons had been severed, Pang You remained silent for a moment, then let out a cold laugh.
The laughter was full of sarcasm.
Pang Da was startled and felt a sense of fear. Now he could only place his hopes on Pang You. If his son disliked him, how would he survive?
"Dad, I told you you were too hasty." Pang You shook his head, sounding quite disappointed.
"You acted too hastily, which attracted Qiao Lian'er's attention and led to your current predicament."
Pang You frowned: "Now look what's happened. You've fallen, while Qiao Lian'er has risen a few steps. You're crippled now. Even if you manage to climb up, you'll only be a behind-the-scenes advisor, never making it to the forefront."
Ponda was extremely angry and frustrated.
He waved his hands in the air, struggling to explain at length, but his explanation was quite disorganized.
But Pang You understood.
"You want to use the people you've climbed up to to deal with the Qiao family, but it's not as convenient as it is when you don't have the knife in your own hand."
