Those two incidents almost cost Li Jia her life. For the first time, Li Jia's entire body was wrapped in gauze, and even her face and eyes were wrapped with bandages to stop the bleeding.
After more than half an hour of slow disassembly, Li Jia appeared naked in front of Angel and Scorpion. First, on her face, a wound about two centimeters long appeared diagonally above Li Jia's eye, close to her eyebrow. The wound had already scabbed over, and it was usually not noticeable under the cover of Li Jia's not-too-long hair.
Next, her body was covered in wounds. Her chest was somewhat better, with only a long scar and a few triangular cuts, but these had already scabbed over, and some of them had fallen off the moment the gauze was removed. However, on Li Jia's back, the dense wounds looked so shocking. Almost all of those wounds were caused by fragments that flew out of the explosion. Then, on her legs, there were large and small scratch-like wounds that had also scabbed over.
"Have you seen enough? Now I'm going to get dressed." Just as Angel was staring intently at Li Jia's crotch, she casually pulled on her underwear and then quickly put on a suit that she had prepared beforehand, instantly transforming herself into a completely different person.
"Master, we're going out now." Angel blushed slightly and pulled Scorpion out of Li Jia's room.
"I haven't moved around in so many days, I'll rust if I lie down any longer!" After getting dressed, Li Jia stretched her muscles and bones, then punched a few times before walking out of the room.
After arriving at the council hall and greeting the elders, Li Jia left the manor. Being bedridden for two consecutive months was probably the only time in Li Jia's life that she had ever been like this. She never expected that there would be bombs buried in the David base. Fortunately, she was quick, otherwise she would probably have been buried alive under the building.
This accident almost cost Li Jia her life, but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. With Chinese New Year just a week away, Li Jia is preparing to return to China to celebrate with her younger siblings. Li Jia had tried to persuade Xiao Yue to come with her, but Xiao Yue politely declined. So, Li Jia didn't insist.
"Little girl, Scorpion, I don't know when I'll be back after I leave this time. You two must do your best to help Xiaoyue until she can be completely independent." Before leaving, Li Jia called Angel and Scorpion to her side again and solemnly instructed them.
"Don't worry, we're both among the world's top talents, after all." Angel's words reminded Li Jia that she had been too concerned about Xiaoyue's safety lately, and had even forgotten her original identity, as well as the power and ability of her two apprentices. After hearing Angel's words, Li Jia nodded, "Hehe, I've been too immersed in the role lately, sorry."
In a rare good mood, Li Jia made a small joke, then left the villa with nothing else in her possession. Apart from Angel and Scorpion, no one else knew Li Jia was gone, including Xiao.
As Li Jia boarded the plane to China, Florence welcomed the dawn of a new day. Xiao Yue, with tears in her eyes, silently wished Li Jia well, her blessings tinged with apology: "Have a safe journey! Happy New Year!"
The flight to China takes about thirteen hours, giving Li Jia plenty of time to process everything that has happened recently. More than three months have passed since she arrived in Florence, and the traditional Chinese festival is approaching. Is there any regret? Yes, there is. That's because Xiao Yue has still not agreed to come back to China with her. Fortunately, Xiao Yue is doing well, which is a great source of happiness for Li Jia!
In City B, Li Jia walked out of the airport, looking at the fading city. "I'm back! The air is so fresh!"
