A few days later, Sun Tianliang's brothers were mostly much better, and many had recovered completely.
Even so, a few men still couldn't hold on and died quietly in the night.
Sun Tianliang was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do to save them.
Perhaps this is their fate.
While taking care of them, Sun Tianliang also discovered that his physical condition had undergone a qualitative leap.
Not only did he recover from cholera quickly, but his body also became stronger than before!
Since he recovered, he has been full of energy, as if he has inexhaustible strength.
Two days later.
Qiao He said to Sun Tianliang, "We should get going."
Sun Tianliang nodded and replied with a smile, "Okay, Miss Qiao, don't worry, the surviving brothers will all be your bodyguards, so don't worry."
Qiao He: "Yes, I believe you."
During this time, Qiao He also learned that they basically didn't lie, and once they recovered from their illnesses, their abilities became apparent.
They were indeed tall and burly, clearly the kind of men who would be hired as thugs or bodyguards.
All told, about ten of the thugs have now recovered.
This is already the most optimistic scenario, considering they have cholera.
Moreover, he endured many days without any medication; it's a miracle he didn't die.
After receiving treatment, he recovered quickly, although he is not as bad as he was at his worst.
But that's still much better than being a normal person.
This is the difference between people who have practiced and those who haven't.
These days, Qiao He has been paying close attention to Bo Shiwu's physical condition.
Then she noticed that Bo Shiwu's complexion seemed to be getting worse day by day. She found it strange because she trusted Bo Shiwu a lot, so she didn't use the system's ability to judge whether Bo Shiwu was lying.
But Qiao He felt more and more uneasy. If things were getting better day by day, would Bo Shiwu's complexion be so bad?
Qiao He felt that Bo Shiwu was lying to her.
So she decided to use the system's ability to collect emotional values to determine whether Bo Shiwu was lying.
Because the mood value broadcast reminders can be annoying at times, Qiao He usually turns this feature off.
Unexpectedly, this led to the omission of the most important thing...
"Hey kid, how's your injury? Are you feeling alright?" Qiao He asked in a low voice.
Bo Shiwu nodded slightly and said, "It's alright, better than yesterday. Don't worry, Qiao He, you should get better soon."
Qiao He clearly heard the system's mechanical voice: "Acquire 10 points of Bo Shiwu's well-intentioned lies!"
Qiao He's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she sighed, saying, "Really? You're not lying to me."
"Is it really better than yesterday?"
Hearing Qiao He's words and seeing her worried look.
Bo Shiwu felt a little guilty, but he didn't want Qiao He to blame herself too much, so he forced himself to say, "Yes, really."
Qiao He rubbed her temples. "You're lying again."
Lin Qiao sighed helplessly, "Xiao Bo, you silly child, do you think we can't see it?"
Qiao He nodded: "Of course you're silly. How could we not notice how bad you look?"
"Bo Shiwu, I need to check your arm to see what's going on," Qiao He said in a very low voice.
Bo Shiwu lowered his eyelashes slightly, knowing that he couldn't fool Qiao He and Lin Qiao anymore.
So he said in a low voice, "I'm sorry... I just felt there was no need to say it."
Qiao He's eyes reddened with anger. "What do you mean 'unnecessary'?! Bo Shiwu, do you even consider us your support?"
Bo Shiwu was slightly taken aback. A backup plan?
Qiao He, her mother-in-law, and the kittens...
Is she his backer?
Qiao He pulled him over with heartache, made him sit on the sofa, and then took out the first-aid kit to start removing the gauze from Bo Shiwu.
These days she really thought that Bo Shiwu's injuries were gradually getting better, after all, she had been taking anti-inflammatory drugs and a lot of other medications every day.
Unexpectedly...
Qiao He guiltily and carefully unwrapped the gauze, and then she saw...
Thin mist revealed horrific wounds.
It has already started to fester.
The burns that had been treated before, as well as the penetrating wound on my arm, have not healed at all; instead, they are inflamed and infected.
Qiao He's heart skipped a beat. Looking at the wound, she couldn't utter a single word.
A long silence followed.
No one present spoke.
Lin Qiao, her voice trembling with tears, exclaimed, "How could this happen? How could it be so serious!"
"Xiao Bo, why have you been holding back? Are you stupid...?"
"We should have gone to Z City a long time ago. Your wound will only get worse if you keep going like this!"
Lin Qiao didn't know what to say. That's just how Xiao Bo is; they should have expected this a long time ago.
However, he still managed to "scam" her.
Qiao He took a deep breath and didn't say a word. She silently changed Bo Shiwu's medication and re-bandaged him.
After everything was taken care of, she heard Sun Tianliang say with a bitter expression, "Young man, you really have a lot of patience. You should have told us about such a serious injury sooner!"
“Miss Qiao, I’m so sorry. It’s all my brothers’ fault for not getting better sooner. I should have gone to Z City with you to find a doctor sooner…” Sun Tianliang said guiltily.
Qiao He shook her head. "No need to apologize. I'm the one who didn't think things through."
Bo Shiwu said in a hoarse voice, "Qiao He..."
"Don't talk to me right now." Qiao He turned her head away, not looking at Bo Shiwu.
The light in Bo Shiwu's eyes was about to shatter. He wanted to say something, but Qiao He's expression of "don't talk to me" made him dare not say anything more.
After a moment, Qiao He stood up and said to Sun Tianliang, "Call your brothers over, we need to get ready to leave."
Sun Tianliang nodded, "Okay! Miss Qiao, you wait here."
Bo Shiwu hesitated before speaking, "There's no rush to go to Z City. I know my own body; I can still keep going."
Qiao He didn't want to talk to him, but she felt guilty and angry at the same time. "What the hell are you insisting on! You're such a burden, you really are... I don't even know what to say to you."
"It's also my fault for not discovering your condition sooner."
"You used to keep saying you wouldn't bear it all alone when you were injured, so what are you doing now? Bo Shiwu, don't you believe me?" Qiao He turned to look at him, her eyes seemingly filled with tears.
Bo Shiwu was speechless. Yes, he had told Qiao He the same thing when she was sick before.
Now it's his turn to become a real burden, and he's started doing the same things Qiao He used to do.
Bo Shiwu lowered her head and said softly, "I'm sorry, Qiao He, I won't do it again next time."
Qiao He didn't know what to say.
"I'm the one who should be apologizing," Qiao He said sadly.
