Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Not only did it look pure white, but it also had a holy ceiling.

It no longer smelled pungent. Instead, it smelled like disinfectant.

I seem to have been hospitalized a little more frequently recently.

Xu Bai lay on the hospital bed expressionless. He opened his eyes without moving and looked at the ceiling. Thoughts raced through his mind.

Yes.

He was hospitalized again.

However, it was different from the previous two times. This time, he came to the hospital on purpose. At the very least, he knew how to come to the hospital this time.

When the fire department arrived at the scene, An Ya and Su Meng immediately took the fire department’s ladder and ascended to the fifth floor. They happened to see Xu Bai, who was covered in dust, pulling them out of the ruins.

And then…

Su Meng, who was crying anxiously, dragged him into the ambulance and coaxed him to come to the hospital. He was half-willing and half-forced to accept his third full-body checkup this week.

The door of the ward opened.

Gao Lan, who was wearing a white coat, a low ponytail, and a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, walked to Xu Bai’s bed with her hands in her pockets. Then, she quietly looked at Xu Bai, who was lying on the bed and staring at the ceiling.

Xu Bai’s gaze focused on Gao Lan, who had appeared in his line of sight, and he fell silent.

After a while.

Xu Bai looked at Gao Lan and said, “If I said that I came to the hospital on purpose, would you believe me?”

Gao Lan nodded expressionlessly. “I believe you.”

Xu Bai placed his hands on the bed and leaned against the headboard.

“Really?”

“Of course.”

Gao Lan continued to be expressionless and said seriously, “Agent Xu was just

accidentally buried in the ruins. What’s the big deal? It’s all because the police station is making a fuss. Agent Xu’s physique is so good, right?”

The corners of Xu Bai’s mouth twitched. He seriously suspected that Gao Lan’s words were not the truth, but he had no evidence because there was still truth in them.

For example, his physique was indeed very good.

Xu Bai shrugged.

“My physique is indeed quite good. You should know this.”

“Stop joking!”

“Oh.”

Gao Lan rolled her eyes angrily and turned to look in the direction of the ward door. Then, she looked at Xu Bai and took a deep breath. “Resign.”

Xu Bai was stunned.

“You can go to my brother’s department, Head of Security. There’s a lot of money and it’s not dangerous yet.”

Xu Bai’s expression was a little strange. “That’s not good. It’s nepotism. If I go in, I’ll be afraid of others gossiping.”

This suggestion was quite tempting.

Qiangyi Group was a real estate company. Everyone knew that in the real estate industry, the salary at the construction site might not be good, but those in the office had always been in the first tier.

But..

Xu Bai thought about it and shook his head. “Forget it. I still want to be an agent. In a few years, Team Leader Zhou will retire. If nothing goes wrong, I’ll be able to be the team leader.”

Gao Lan rolled her eyes. “In a few years, with your current frequency of staying in the hospital three times a day, I doubt if I’ll be able to see the day you become the team leader.”

Xu Bai shook his head. “I really…”

Before he could finish his sentence.

There was a thud.

The door was opened again. Su Meng, who had a large stack of documents in her hand and dust on her face, pushed the door open hurriedly. “Master, check… Eh, Doctor Gao, you’re here.”

Gao Lan turned around and saw Su Meng enter the room. Her gaze landed on the stack of medical reports in Su Meng’s hand. “Is the report out?”

Su Menu came back to her senses. nodded. and handed over the medical report.

Gao Lan took over and looked at the examination report that had just been released.

Su Meng widened her eyes and looked at Gao Lan. “Doctor Gao, is Master alright?”

Gao Lan didn’t say anything and flipped through the information in her hand.

After a while, she looked up and glanced at Xu Bai. Then, she said to Su Meng, “There’s no big problem. His internal organs and bones are fine. He just has some abrasions and excess adrenal hormones.”

I wasn’t hurt in the first place

A mere Martial Apprentice.

What can you do to me?

Xu Bai lifted the blanket.

“I told you, I’m fine. Alright, get out…”

“No way.”

“No way.”

Gao Lan and An Ya, who happened to walk in from outside, said in unison when they heard Xu Bai’s words.

Xu Bai raised an eyebrow when he saw An Ya enter the room.

Gao Lan also turned around and saw An Ya walking in. A glint flashed across her eyes, but she quickly hid it and greeted her with a smile.

“Team Leader An.” “Doctor Gao.” “Sister An Ya.”

“Mengmeng.”

An Ya nodded at Gao Lan and smiled at Su Meng. Then, her gaze fell on Xu Bai, who was about to get up and leave the hospital. “You can’t be discharged yet.”

Xu Bai frowned.

Good lord, I can’t even decide if I can be discharged?

“Why?”

“Because…”

An Ya was about to say something when she thought of something. She looked at Gao Lan and asked, “Doctor Gao, are you done?”

Gao Lan also glanced at An Ya and nodded. Then, she looked at Xu Bai, who was lying on the bed. “I have too much adrenaline. It’s better to stay here and observe for a night.”

With that, Gao Lan smiled at Su Meng and glanced at An Ya before leaving the ward with her hands in her pockets.

Soon.

The door of the ward closed.

After Gao Lan left, Su Meng blinked.

She had a feeling that Doctor Gao and An Ya didn’t like each other.

Was it an illusion?

The soul of gossip began to burn in Su Meng’s heart. Then, she subconsciously wanted to take out her tarot card and perform divination on this gossip.

But..

Su Meng recalled Doctor Gao’s instructions before he left. She looked at Xu Bai, who continued to get out of bed after Doctor Gao left. She came back to her senses and reached out to press Xu Bai l s shoulder. She pushed her master back onto the bed and pouted. “Master, Doctor Gao just said that you need to be hospitalized for a night for observation.”

Xu Bai looked at the rebellious disciple who was pressing on his shoulder and pushing him backward. The corners of his mouth twitched.

“I’m fine.”

“Master, you are not a doctor.”

“It’s my own body.”

“That won’t do either.”

Su Meng’s attitude was very firm. Her big eyes were tearful, and she looked like she would cry if Xu Bai dared to struggle.

Xu Bai opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

An Ya, who had been standing by the side, interrupted him. “You can’t be discharged yet.”

Su Meng turned to look at An Ya and turned to look at Xu Bai. “Look, Sister An

Ya thinks so too. Master, you need to be hospitalized for observation. You were crushed in the ruins.”

An Ya shook her head. “That’s not what I meant.”

Su Meng was slightly stunned.

Xu Bai looked at An Ya and frowned.

“Then why?”

“Han Ling is looking for you.”
