Zheng Ankang said anxiously, "Aqiao, you mustn't say such things. You'll live to be a hundred and stay with me."
Pan Ruoqiao chuckled: "Alright, I'll live to be a hundred. But Kang-ge, you must remember what I said. From now on, no matter what happens, you must not be distracted by protecting me."
Zheng Ankang understood and thought that he would not be distracted unless it was about Aqiao.
Zheng Ankang waited until Pan Ruoqiao drank the medicine and fell into a deep sleep before returning to Chenxi.
During the past half day, Shenxi, along with Qi Xiuwu and Zhang Feng who had finished applying medicine, went through the ranks of the soldiers who had shown promise.
