Chapter 105 Banquet Etiquette
Despite his anxiety, Chen Xingheng gently coaxed, "Whether you're alright or not, let's go get checked out. It'll be a good opportunity to see how well your injuries are healing."
Hearing him say that, Gu Qing stopped struggling. But she couldn't help explaining, "Xingheng, you really don't need to be in such a hurry. My spiritual body seems to be a little different from others."
As the energy was absorbed, the dull pain and burning sensation in my entire spiritual body due to the injury were greatly reduced. As more energy stones were absorbed, I even felt that there were no problems now.
At least the little clouds don't look wrinkled anymore.
Despite his explanation, the car still reached the maximum speed limit and arrived at the infirmary. The doctor, seeing Gu Qing arrive, assumed her injuries had worsened.
After a series of quick equipment checks, the doctor finally breathed a sigh of relief. "There's nothing wrong; in fact, your mental energy has recovered remarkably quickly. Have you taken any medication or eaten anything special?"
Gu Qing's face was full of surprise. "We've used medicine before, along with energy stones." As she spoke, the doctor took notes while also reviewing previous treatment records.
Finally, he sighed and said, "It's a good thing that you have good recovery ability. This way, your injury will heal faster and you'll suffer less."
After confirming that she was alright, the two of them took out some fresh fruit from their spatial storage and went to check on Jin Beiwang.
Upon entering, one sees a serious-looking person staring into the void, their fingers constantly swiping.
"Sorry to bother you."
Jin Beiwang flipped his wrist and glanced at them. "I won't bother you. It's good that someone keeps me company, otherwise I'll be too bored."
Chen Xingheng put the things he was holding aside. "These are some pure fruits that Qingqing prepared. If you like them, try them. If you don't like them, give them to the people below."
"After being carefully selected by Master Gu, it must taste delicious. You look like you've recovered quite well."
Gu Qing nodded, "Yes, my recovery ability is still okay. Although I can't use my spiritual body yet, I'm not feeling so bad anymore."
"How are you now? If you hadn't been there, we would all have been in danger." Gu Qing's face was full of worry, and her slightly furrowed brows made her look even more delicate.
cough cough cough
Chen Xingheng's cough brought Jin Beiwang's attention back to the table.
He reached out and took off his gold-rimmed glasses, as if a seal had been broken. The man, who usually appeared refined and polite, suddenly seemed a little aggressive.
A slight smile played on his lips, tinged with a hint of wickedness. "Gu Qing, I've heard them all call you Qingqing. May I call you that?"
Gu Qing hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
"Qingqing, you don't need to feel bad. Whether it's the laws of interstellar space, my personal values, or our..."
He then chuckled softly twice.
"No matter the reason, you don't need to feel guilty about it."
Chen Xingheng said that what he hated most were the people on the capital planet, who were all the most pretentious.
"You are truly a fighter with principles and a strong moral compass. I..."
The knocking sounded, and before anyone in the room could answer, the door was pushed open. Everyone turned around and looked over, where two people, each nearly two meters tall, stood in the doorway.
He was dressed in a standard military uniform, which covered his muscular body. He wore leather gloves and exuded a restrained yet powerful aura. He had very full and well-proportioned facial features.
My first impression of him wasn't that he was handsome, but rather that he exuded a wild and domineering aura, like a general from ancient times who fought on the battlefield.
Perhaps not expecting so many people to be in the room, Gu Qing and the others frowned slightly upon seeing them, and their aura and pressure gradually subsided.
The person beside him nodded and left, leaving only the slightly hoarse voice that rang out, "Sorry, I didn't expect you to be entertaining guests."
He was speaking to Jin Beiwang, but his gaze never left Gu Qing and the other person.
Gu Qing met his gaze for a moment, nodded slightly, and then looked away at Chen Xingheng. "Xingheng, let's go. We shouldn't keep Researcher Jin entertaining the guests."
After being helped to stand up, I said, "Researcher Jin, I'll treat you to a banquet after you're discharged from the hospital."
"Okay," he replied with a smile.
The two walked out hand in hand, and the person at the door stepped aside to make way for them. Gu Qing smiled and nodded her thanks, while Chen Xingheng wore a smile on his face.
"Goodbye, Councilor Yan."
Yan Anli nodded in return, not bothered that the other party had recognized him.
Chen Xingheng helped Gu Qing walk out together.
