"Yeah, I even had a dream about the pre-apocalyptic world. I dreamt I was at an amusement park, and I had so much fun!"
At this moment, Xiao Lin looked like a wronged dog, his head drooping, as if the sky had fallen.
Xia He realized that Xiao Lin seemed off, so she asked, "What happened to you? Did you hurt your head?"
Xiao Lin finally spoke, "I woke up at the medical station. I'm still waiting for you there."
Xia He was stunned. Did Xiao Lin mean that she should stay with him at the medical station?
Xia He thought for a moment and said, "Brother, here, men and women shouldn't touch each other. It might not be appropriate for me to be at the medical station. Besides, you have plenty of men under you. You can just call one of them to come and keep you company."
Xiao Lin lowered his head and said, "Xia He, I am your fiancé. Hai Dong and the others call you sister-in-law."
Xia He was displeased. "No, you're just saying I'm your fiancé and that's it? Besides, I didn't ask Hai Dong and the others to call me sister-in-law. We just live together, there's nothing more to it. You need to get this relationship straight!"
Xiao Lin sat on the sofa, silent.
Seeing this, Xia He thought to herself, "Is she really being wronged?"
But then she thought, "Feeling sorry for a man is like courting death! Besides, it wasn't me who caused his injury, so what does it have to do with me? I even went through all the trouble of getting him to the medical station! He should be thanking me! I've saved him twice already! What's with this sudden feeling of guilt??? Guilt, get lost!"
However, seeing that Xiao Lin was indeed in a very bad state, he took pity on him and took out some porridge and light side dishes from his space, placing them in front of Xiao Lin before walking away.
Xiao Lin was left alone, sitting there grieving. Xiao Hua came out of her spatial dimension and shook her head at Xiao Lin with pity, making a tsk-tsk sound to mock him (not out of sympathy).
Xiao Lin could only console himself, "It's okay, my wife still gave me porridge, she still cares about me, she must!"
Xiao Lin had barely finished his porridge when the satellite phone rang. Thinking it was an emergency at the base, he answered it immediately.
The voice that reached his ears was Hai Dong's: "Brother Xiao! I heard you were shot! Are you alright? How could you get shot like that? Where are you now? I need to come see you!"
Hai Dong sounded like he was about to cry, but Xiao Lin said slowly, "I'm fine. I'm at home. You don't need to come see me. I'm perfectly fine. I'll be fine after two days of rest. If you have any questions about the base these days, just call me via satellite phone. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll stay home these next few days and won't be going out."
After hearing this, Hai Dong wanted to say something more, but Xiao Lin didn't give him any chance and hung up the phone directly. Then he enjoyed the porridge and light side dishes that Xia He casually took out, eating with great relish.
On the other hand, Xia He had set up a table on the kang (a heated brick bed), laid out fruits and vegetables, and even grabbed a KFC family bucket. She was watching the Friendship Apartment on the projection screen and laughing heartily.
Two little ones were standing nearby, and they also shared a few pieces of chicken, eating them with great relish.
If Xiao Lin were to conduct a mental search at this moment, he would discover that Xia He truly did not care about Xiao Lin and regarded him as someone dispensable.
However, Xia He was very diligent today. After watching an episode of a TV series and eating KFC, she went to the rooftop to cultivate.
These past few days of cultivation have allowed Xia He to feel the spiritual energy within her body becoming increasingly abundant. She has also read the basic encyclopedia of spells, and her interest in cultivation is growing stronger.
And there's another important point!
Xia He wants to cultivate as soon as possible and escape Xiao Lin's clutches!
