Chapter 971 Reaching a Million



"This...it's a success?"

"Then why hasn't he woken up yet?"

"Perhaps we should wait a little longer?"

Dean Xu and Qiu Man spoke in hushed tones. Alliance Commander Li held Li Sikai's hand tightly, remaining silent. However, it was clear that he had relaxed.

"Come on, let me feed you another bowl." Half an hour later, General Li said.

After the three of them worked together, Li Sikai's condition improved, but he still didn't wake up.

Qiu Man asked, "How about we feed him another bowl?"

General Li shook his head: "Let's observe first and wait until tomorrow."

To ease the tension, Dean Xu said with a smile, "How about I get Xiao Kai a baby bottle tomorrow? That way you won't have to go through so much trouble just to feed him water."

Upon hearing this, General Li looked up and stared intently at him. After a long while, until Dean Xu became uncomfortable with his gaze, he finally said, "Okay."

Dean Xu breathed a sigh of relief, said a few kind words, drew another vial of blood from Li Sikai, and then left.

Only General Li and Qiu Man remained in the ward. They looked at each other in silence, quietly keeping watch by the bedside.

They thought Li Sikai had no senses, but little did they know that he was as clear about things as a mirror.

After Li Sikai forced himself to send the person out of the space, his head started to ache so badly that he fainted.

Even after I passed out, I was still conscious, but my head was buzzing and I felt uncomfortable.

The clouds and mist churned and receded within the space. It was clear that an upgrade was underway. However, this upgrade was not immediate; the clouds and mist churned and churned for a long time before finally retreating only a tiny bit.

Li Sikai was getting anxious. This time, the promotion was for a million, and at this rate, how long would it take?

He looked at the terrified guards in the space and tried to tell them not to be nervous, but they couldn't hear him. He wanted to send them out of the space, but he couldn't wake up.

My head hurts, my body aches, and I feel utterly hopeless.

He persevered for a day and a night, and was even considering giving up. But he saw the worry in General Li's eyes and thought that if he died, his uncle would be very sad.

Li Sikai persevered until they fed him honey water, which made him feel much better. But soon, he was in pain all over his body again.

Later, General Li left for a while. He didn't know what he was doing, but when he came back, he fed him two bowls of energy rainwater.

Li Sikai felt better. The clouds in the space were also spreading outwards at an accelerated pace.

He saw the pasture, which surprisingly had chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle, sheep, horses, and donkeys. They were running happily on the grassland, which made him feel a little envious.

The guards had recovered from their initial shock. They ran into the pasture and found that the animals weren't afraid of people at all. Some of the greedy ones even caught a couple of chickens and roasted them; the aroma was so enticing, it almost drove them crazy.

Li Sikai suddenly felt his bladder was a little full. He blushed and tried to control it, but failed.

Oh dear, I really didn't expect that someone over thirty would still be...

Li Sikai desperately wanted to wake up, but he was afraid he would have to remain in this state until the space upgrade was complete. How utterly embarrassing!

Li Zongmengguan had someone clean him up, and while feeling sorry for him, he was surprised to find that Li Sikai's fingers twitched.

"Xiao Kai, Xiao Kai?" he called out twice, but no one responded. Although General Li was somewhat disappointed, his heart was filled with hope.

At the same time, he made up his mind to tell Xiao Shen tomorrow to prepare the energy rainwater, and when the opportunity came, he would send someone to collect it.

In Shanghai, after hanging up the phone, Shen Yanming composed himself and opened the office door.

Wen Chaohui really wanted to ask him what Chief Alliance Officer Li had said. But considering that he had been asked to leave, it meant it was inconvenient for him to know, so he smiled and exchanged a few pleasantries before sending him home.

The couple walked hand in hand through the quiet night.

When they got home, Shen Yanming told his wife everything without holding anything back. Bi Qiaoan nodded and told Shen Yanming to handle it.

"Let's keep some. Although we have spiritual spring water, no one can really tell the difference between energy rain and spiritual spring water."

"Okay, but I don't know if this will work."

"Since the spiritual honey works, the energy rain should be just as good. No problem, we'll have news in a few days."

"I hope Li Sikai can pull through this difficult time."

As the couple talked, they managed to collect the energy rainwater. It amounted to several hundred liters, but they dared not let such a large quantity flow out.

Shen Yanming did the math and took out two 5L buckets. He wanted to take out some more, but he was afraid that taking too much would arouse suspicion.

After thinking for a moment, the two found a century-old ginseng that had been prepared. They wrapped it tightly in a box and a waterproof bag.

They didn't know how well it would turn out in the other person's space, but they thought they should send one to try. What if it was even better? Wouldn't that be a lucky break?

The two of them really went to great lengths for their friend.

After finishing their work, it was already late at night. The couple looked at each other, went into their room, tidied up a bit, and went to sleep.

The next day, the family of four slept in until late morning before lazily getting up. Before they even had breakfast, they heard a loud banging on the door.

Bi Qiaoan looked at Shen Yanming with surprise and asked, "Did General Li come to see you again?"

"I don't know. I'll go out and take a look. You stay here," Shen Yanming said.

Bi Qiaoan nodded and reached out to let him go.

Shen Yanming simply put on his down jacket, opened the door, and found that it was Jiang Shulian outside.

"Are you awake or still awake?" he asked with a smile.

Jiang Shulian yawned: "I stayed in the office all night. I just got off work and was passing by your house, so I thought I'd drop by and say hello."

"What is it? Come in and talk." Shen Yanming said, stepping aside from the doorway. Jiang Shulian didn't stand on ceremony and followed him into the house.

"Did you just wake up?" Jiang Shulian glanced at Shen Yanming's attire and teased him with a smile.

Shen Yanming nodded: "I got back late last night, and it took me ages to warm up the bed. I was freezing and didn't fall asleep until the middle of the night."

Jiang Shulian looked at him sympathetically, nodded, and expressed her complete understanding.

He glanced at the bedroom and saw that the door was closed, so he knew that Bi Qiaoan and the two children were still asleep. He didn't ask any questions, and instead told them about the phone call he had received early that morning.

"It's only six o'clock, and they called at six o'clock. Oh my god, I had just fallen asleep when I was woken up. I was so angry that I almost threw the phone down. But guess what? It was General Manager Li. I was so startled that I woke up immediately."

Shen Yanming listened to him with a smile and even made him a cup of tea. The water was kept by the stove, so it was always hot whenever needed.

Jiang Shu thanked him and drank it without ceremony. The red date and ginger tea warmed his stomach and felt quite comfortable.

Jiang Shulian couldn't help but drink half a cup before saying, "It startled me. I thought something serious had happened, but then I heard Chief Alliance Officer Li say, 'Go and tell Xiao Shen to prepare his things and wait for my notification.'"
