Chapter 1137: Back to Normal?
Gu Yixuan looked at the time; it had been more than half an hour, so Yun Qiqi inside should be about done, and he planned to go back.
When he returned to the corridor, Fan Xinglan and the others had surprisingly already bought the cake.
Gu Yixuan’s mouth twitched: "The ward isn’t suitable for so many people to enter, and I still need to check his temperature."
Fu Lifei said, "Why don’t you bring the cake in to Little Sister-in-law first, seeing it might make her feel better."
"Alright then."
Gu Yixuan reluctantly took the cake inside, only to find Yun Qiqi still lying by the bedside crying.
He pushed the door open and saw the young girl, small as she was, turning her head towards the noise to look at him.
Her eyes and little nose were red, with some sparkle on the tip, tear stains all over her face, looking especially pitiable.
Gu Yixuan: "..."
He couldn’t help but guiltily glance at Yan Yan lying on the bed.
If Yan were to wake up right now, wouldn’t he be beyond redemption?
Anyone clueless about the situation might think he did something to his family’s little darling.
Upon seeing him, Yun Qiqi quickly turned her head away and wiped her face.
Yet she found Gu Yixuan still watching her, and glared at him fiercely: "What are you staring at?"
Gu Yixuan didn’t dare provoke her, quietly withdrew his gaze, and coughed lightly, saying: "Why are you crying so hard? It’s not like he has a terminal illness."
Yun Qiqi sniffled, regaining a calm demeanor.
Her voice still held a heavy nasal tone: "How is his condition?"
Gu Yixuan said, "It’s relatively stable for now; he should wake up in a day or two. No need to worry too much. Though his recovery ability isn’t as freakish as yours, it’s still better than the average person."
Yan Yan had gone through a storm of blood and rain to rise to power, suffering numerous injuries. To survive in a ravenous big family, a good physical condition and exceptional combat skills were necessary.
He had undergone high-intensity training, and his body’s resistance and recovery ability were always outstanding, on par with top-tier special forces soldiers.
Finally, Yun Qiqi looked like she breathed a sigh of relief, her complexion improved a lot.
Seeing this, Gu Yixuan handed her the small cake: "The guys outside bought this for you, eat up. I need to check Yan’s temperature."
Yun Qiqi took the small cake and sat on the sofa in the ward, slowly eating it, scooping it one small bite at a time.
The sweet milky taste indeed made her feel a lot better.
Halfway through checking Yan Yan’s temperature, Gu Yixuan suddenly thought of something, glanced at Yun Qiqi with an odd expression:
"By the way, little darling, you should... be back to normal now?"
Yun Qiqi’s movements paused for a moment, her eyelashes fluttered slightly.
After a moment, she lowered her gaze, as if nothing had happened, softly said "Mm," and continued scooping up the cake slowly.
Only then did Gu Yixuan breathe a sigh of relief, muttering: "Back when we were at the Yan Family, Yan and I felt something was off with you, and sure enough, there was an issue. What method did they use to control you? Drugs? Or some kind of mental manipulation... I recall the stuff that organization researched was pretty bizarre."
He couldn’t help but click his tongue: "If possible, I really want to check out their laboratory."
Yun Qiqi did not respond to him.
Gu Yixuan seemed to expect this, ignored it, and continued busying himself with his tasks.
