Ji Wanwan's eyebrows furrowed, no more hesitation!

She yanked the door open and saw Xu Siming lying facedown on the ground, naked, with a small pool of blood gathering around his lower abdon.

The blood was quickly being diluted by the water from the shower, turning into a pretty light pink as it flowed into the drain. But as soon as one wave was diluted, another wave of blood would rapidly pour out from Xu Siming's wound, so that the abdominal area was always thick with the color of blood.

And Xu Siming himself had already passed out due to excessive blood loss.

This sight gave Ji Wanwan a start.

She imdiately stepped forward to turn off the shower and then used her space superpower to lift Xu Siming onto the dry bed to lie down.

After flipping him over, Ji Wanwan could clearly see the wound on Xu Siming's body.

There was a knife wound about half a finger's width on the left side of Xu Siming's waist and abdon. The cut was about the length of a palm, and because it hadn't been properly treated, the wound was infected and red, swollen flesh bulged and split on both sides, exposing deeper layers of muscle tissue.

The blood that gushed out quickly stained the sheets beneath Xu Siming red.

His condition was very bad!

Ji Wanwan's expression was grave, she dared not delay any further, "System, close the room door!"

System: "Okay, Host."

The mont the door closed, Ji Wanwan retrieved the dical supplies she had stored in the System Space.

She deftly opened a bottle of Hemostatic Powder and poured the entire contents directly onto Xu Siming's wound.

The powder was instantly moistened by the bleeding, clumping into little lumps that adhered well to Xu Siming's wound and effectively slowed the bleeding.

"Uhm..."

The man on the bed instinctively furrowed his brows from the pain and let out an unconscious moan...

"Warning, Xu Siming's life value has dropped by 5%, he is currently at 35%."

Just after spreading the powder, Ji Wanwan heard the System's alert.

"I ****"

Her vision darkened, and she nearly fainted from anger.

With only 5% of life value left, Xu Siming would be done for, are you kidding ?!

Ji Wanwan bit down on her teeth, refusing to accept it.

Even if it were -5%, she would still snatch him back from Death's grasp!

Ji Wanwan took out dical gloves, surgical scissors, dical sutures, bandages, and other items from the Space System, ready to stitch up Xu Siming's wound.

First, she administered a certain amount of adrenaline to Xu Siming to stabilize his vital signs, then she began to disinfect and suture the wound.

Ji Wanwan wasn't a professional dic, and her suturing was ssy, but fortunately, she had been through an apocalypse and had so experience with such matters.

Although Xu Siming's wound stitching was a bit hideous, at least it wasn't bleeding anymore.

Satisfied with her handiwork, Ji Wanwan nodded and raised her arm to wipe away the sweat that had accumulated on her forehead due to the tension.

"Phew..."

Ji Wanwan exhaled a breath of stale air and began to dress and bandage Xu Siming's wound.

As she dressed the wound, Ji Wanwan glanced over Xu Siming's body.

The man had a great figure, a perfect inverted triangle with clear muscle lines, and below the inverted triangle...

Ji Wanwan's face flushed, and she quickly looked away.

Cough, look away from what's indecent.

"Xu Siming's life value is beginning to rise, currently at 40%, and once the life value reaches 50%, Xu Siming will be out of life-threatening danger," the System alerted.

The next instant after the System's alert, Ji Wanwan heard another voice.

"Does it look good?"

The man's voice was weak but laced with a hint of amusent, and it struck Ji Wanwan like a bolt of lightning, making her hands shake all of a sudden.

She accidentally touched the wound, and the man let out a muffled groan, drawing a sharp breath, "Gentle..."

Ji Wanwan felt both frustrated and amused.

About to croak, yet still finding the ti to tease her, it seed his injury wasn't that severe after all!

She chuckled and asked, "Still feeling cheeky?"

Xu Siming's ears turned slightly red, he quietly turned his head away and muttered sowhat unnaturally, "Thanks."

Considering Xu Siming was in poor condition, Ji Wanwan didn't tease him further. She swiftly finished bandaging him. Afterward, she considerately pulled up his quilt, covering his private areas.

Seeing Xu Siming with a flushed face, she felt imnsely pleased.

That's for being so cheeky!

She thought this guy was all capable; turns out he was just a paper tiger!

Ji Wanwan took off her blood-stained gloves and started to prepare the oral hemostatic and anti-inflammatory dicines.

"Injured so badly and still daring to take a hot shower, truly reckless."

Taking a hot bath after excessive blood loss could increase the tabolic burden and easily lead to shock.

Xu Siming wasn't unaware of this, but he felt unbearably dirty.

He propped himself up slowly, leaning tiredly against the headboard and said lethargically, "Sorry, I wasn't planning on dying on purpose."

Ji Wanwan: "..."

She couldn't resist giving Xu Siming a thumbs-up: "Bro, you can even joke yourself to death, seriously!"

Xu Siming pressed his lips together, lifting his head, "Then let's change the subject. How did Boss Ji know I was about to die?"

Ji Wanwan: "..."Better not to change it!

She stuffed the dicine into Xu Siming's hand without much enthusiasm, "I had business with you and happened to co across it."

Xu Siming looked darkly and inscrutably at the dicine in his hand and pressed further, "Boss Ji had business with ?"

Knowing that Xu Siming was soone with strong defenses, Ji Wanwan had already thought up an excuse to use for this very mont.

After returning to her room the previous day, Ji Wanwan had learned from the System about Xu Siming's general information, finding out he was a senior student at the dical College of Nan University with excellent grades and a well-off background.

If it weren't for the apocalypse, he would likely be soone who shined brightly.

However, why a student from the dical College would participate in research at the Life Sciences College was sothing the System didn't know.

Ji Wanwan smiled sincerely, "Senior Brother Xu, let's get reacquainted. I am Ji Wanwan from the Life Science College of Nan University, just started my sophomore year."

Xu Siming arched an eyebrow, "I know."

"You know?" Ji Wanwan was taken aback.

She was usually low-key at school, virtually invisible—so much so that she was a clear-transparent-like presence, and Xu Siming was from the dical College, not the sa as her college. How would he know her?

Xu Siming looked at Ji Wanwan with interest, "I've read your published academic paper—The Correlation between the Geno and Human Diseases. It's very well-written."

Ji Wanwan was stunned.

Except for her ntor, she hadn't discussed that paper with anyone else—not even Xia Li. How did Xu Siming know about it?

Suddenly, Ji Wanwan thought of sothing, "What is your relationship with Xu Weiguo?"

The light in Xu Siming's eyes dimd for a mont, and he couldn't hide the pain in his gaze.

Ji Wanwan tentatively ventured, "He is your father?"

After a long silence, Xu Siming nodded solemnly, his expression pained, "Yes."

At the confirmation, Ji Wanwan's eyes teared up.

Xu Weiguo was her ntor; to her, the strict yet affectionate Xu Weiguo was not only a guide academically but also a father figure on her life's journey.

From Xu Siming's expression, it wasn't hard to deduce that Xu Weiguo had likely t with misfortune.

No wonder seeing Xu Siming for the first ti, Ji Wanwan felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Ji Wanwan's voice was hoarse, "Did Teacher Xu die from zombies?"
