After Li Weidong left, Xiao Mao stood alone in the room, lost in thought.
Fang Qingdai hesitated, unsure whether it was still a good time to go out.
After all, Xiao Mao had never revealed to Fang Qingdai what Li Weidong had said.
Xiao Mao...has his own concerns?
However, Lu Hai was in very poor condition and wouldn't last much longer, so Fang Qingdai had to send Uncle Lu and his wife out.
Just then, Xiao Mao suddenly spoke up: "Come out, sis, he's gone."
Fang Qingdai was stunned for a moment before leading Uncle Lu and his wife, along with Qingluan, out of the space.
How did you know I was here?
Xiao Mao grinned and pointed to the door of the room: "When we came in, he slammed the door shut. The door was almost touching the frame when it suddenly bounced back a little and then closed again. I thought it must be you."
Fang Qingdai was somewhat surprised by Xiao Mao's observation skills. She hesitated for a moment, then said without asking anything, "Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu are anxious to see Uncle Lu Hai, let's go out first."
Xiao Mao nodded and was the first to leave the room.
Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu had been pacing anxiously earlier, but now that they had entered the hall, they hesitated at the door of the room.
Fang Qingdai lowered her eyes and softly encouraged, "Let's go, Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu, Uncle Lu Hai is waiting."
Qingluan stepped forward to help Aunt Lu: "Aunt, let me help you across."
Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu were trembling, but they still walked towards the direction where Lu Hai was to be settled, their hands and feet weak.
Initially hesitant and sluggish, Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu finally screamed and rushed over like madmen when they saw Lu Hai, who was covered in blood, his abdomen rotten, and his face pale.
"Xiao Hai!" Aunt Lu rushed to the bed, looking at Lu Hai whose pupils were dilated and who couldn't speak at all. Her heart felt as if it were being torn apart by several sharp claws at the same time.
She only managed to shout once before she couldn't utter another complete sentence. She collapsed by the window, crying and screaming hysterically, wanting to touch Lu Hai's body but hesitating to do so.
Faced with the tragic plight of their loved ones, anyone could become a madman devoid of reason.
Uncle Lu seemed calmer. He stood by the bed without crying or making a fuss, but his red eyes, trembling fingers, and legs that almost gave way several times showed his breakdown.
When Lu Hai saw his brother and sister-in-law, his previously unfocused pupils narrowed slightly.
He struggled, trying his best to speak, but his throat gurgled and he couldn't utter a single complete word.
The more anxious and struggling he became, the more blood seeped from his body.
Within seconds, the bedding beneath him was soaked with blood, which dripped onto the floor.
Uncle Lu finally moved. He sat down on the edge of the bed and pressed down on Lu Hai's intact arm: "Don't worry, don't worry, your brother and sister-in-law are here. We're right here with you. Don't worry!"
Lu Hai paused for a moment, but still struggled to speak.
Everyone in the hall turned their heads away in disbelief.
Mao Ling was covered in sweat: "Don't get excited, don't get excited, my superpower can't seal the blood vessels anymore!"
She gritted her teeth and increased her power output, but even as her power soothed Lu Hai's festering wounds, it couldn't completely stop the bleeding!
Land and sea are really failing!
Uncle Lu finally couldn't hold back anymore. The middle-aged man's wailing was heart-wrenching, even more distressing than a baby's cry.
Fang Qingdai hurriedly took out a bottle of medicine, uncorked it, and started pouring it into Lu Hai's mouth one bottle at a time!
The Grade A treatment was working, and the bleeding started to heal, but it quickly stopped due to the severity of the injury, and the bleeding began to seep out again.
But it's okay, the next Grade A potion has already been injected!
Thanks to the relentless use of Grade A medicine, Lu Hai's condition finally stabilized, and he was able to speak again!
Then, the first thing he said was, "You, you guys came back for what?"
"Go! Go!"
Uncle Lu was furious: "You think you can just hide from us and die if I don't come back? If you just leave like this, how are your sister-in-law and I supposed to face Mom and Dad afterwards!"
"Lu Hai! You advised me and your sister-in-law to let go, and we've come to terms with it. We could have left together and our family could have lived happily together in the future. Why did you do something so foolish!"
"What clues did you find? Why didn't you discuss them with us? Why are you going to your death by yourself? Your sister-in-law and I are ordinary people, but we have brains and we can come up with solutions together!"
Aunt Lu cried so hard she could barely breathe: "Xiao Hai, you're tearing my heart out like this. You know, you and Xiao Die are both my precious children."
"My sister-in-law hasn't even had a chance to make up for all these years of neglect. Kid, how am I supposed to live?"
The couple's tearful words made Lu Hai cry so hard he couldn't open his eyes.
He spoke in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry, brother, sister-in-law, I'm so sorry."
He apologized for losing Xiaodie, and also for digging out his brother and sister-in-law's hearts before leaving.
"Brother, sister-in-law, I... I made a mistake. I shouldn't have gone. Please listen to me, please listen to me. Don't think about revenge anymore. You... you should live well, have another child, and live a good life..."
He gazed greedily at his brother and sister-in-law's aged faces, his pupils gradually dilating.
Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu were going crazy, calling out to Lu Hai again and again, but they couldn't wake him up anymore.
"He's gone." Mao Ling withdrew her supernatural powers and spoke softly, her face pale.
Qingluan buried her head in Fang Qingdai's arms, and the scalding wetness quickly soaked through Fang Qingdai's clothes.
Fang Qingdai closed her eyes and saw Aunt Lu let out a sharp scream and faint again, so she quickly went forward to support her.
Seeing this, others rushed forward to help.
However, Uncle Lu suddenly went berserk at this moment. He shoved away Xiao Mao, who came forward to help him, and cursed angrily with bloodshot eyes: "Get out of here, you son of a murderer, you are just as disgusting as your beastly father!"
"They're all in cahoots, don't try to be nice!"
Xiao Mao was pushed back a few steps, and his face turned pale instantly when he heard Uncle Lu's angry curses.
Mao Ling was unaware of Xiao Mao's conversation with Li Weidong, and couldn't bear to see her nephew treated like this. She slapped the bed and pointed at Uncle Lu, saying, "Hey, what's wrong with you? Can't you tell right from wrong? If it weren't for my nephew's timely rescue, Lu Hai wouldn't have made it to your place!"
"Besides, if it weren't for my nephew, would I have overdrawn my supernatural abilities to keep Lu Hai alive?"
When Uncle Lu saw that it was Mao Ling, he knew that it was thanks to Mao Ling that Lu Hai was kept alive. He could only collapse to the ground in despair, covering his face, and no longer vent his emotions on Xiao Mao.
Seeing this, Fang Qingdai quickly spoke up: "Uncle Lu, please tidy up Uncle Lu Hai's appearance. We'll take him back to the Oasis Base."
After finding something for Uncle Lu to do and sending the unconscious Aunt Lu into the space, Fang Qingdai called Mao Ling and Xiao Mao to the room where Xiao Mao had talked with Li Weidong earlier.
“Aunt Ling, please don’t be angry. Uncle Lu is emotional because he lost a loved one. Please don’t hold it against him. He lost control of his emotions because we heard some things.”
