Healing a Fallen S-Rank Beastman: Everyone Fights Over the Little Female Chapter 45: Special
"It seems they’ve already spoken to you. My na is Lu Xiao. What’s yours?"
Lu Xiao smiled, completely devoid of the haughtiness of a female. She was as approachable as a long-unseen friend.
In the cold confinent cell, the smile on Lu Xiao’s face was like the brilliant sun of July and August, warming everyone’s hearts.
It wasn’t just 3377; at that mont, everyone standing in the confinent cell was srized by Lu Xiao’s smile.
’If gods truly existed in this world, they would probably look just like her.’
"I... I’m Dean."
"Hello, Dean. It’s nice to et you. Can you tell how you’re feeling right now?"
"I feel great right now, really great. I..."
"Tell the truth, Dean. If you don’t know how to put it into words, just answer my questions." Lu Xiao gently patted his shoulder to comfort him. "What does your Spirit Sea feel like right now? Painful, a dull ache, nothing at all, clear and refreshed, or numb?"
"When I... when I first woke up, it felt refreshed. Now it’s a dull ache, but it’s much less painful than before."
"Okay. The bestialized parts of your lower body—do they have any sensation? Is there any pain? Can you change them back into legs?"
"No sensation. I can force them to change back."
After listening to Dean’s answers, Lu Xiao nodded and jotted them down in her notebook. "Do you think the bestialized parts will recover if your Spirit Sea is healed?"
"Yes, they can, Miss Lu Xiao." Dean answered with absolute conviction.
Lu Xiao set down her notebook. "Alright. I’m going to perform another Spiritual Soothing for you now. After today, I’ll co once a week to give you a treatnt. I’m sorry, my power is limited, so this is the most I can do. The healing process might be very long. I’m not sure when you’ll be cured, but I hope we both don’t give up. Can we work on this together, Dean?"
Dean was at a loss for how to express his elation and gratitude. "I... I won’t give up. I won’t let you down. I’ll do my best to live a little longer."
"Good. Then let’s begin. Get so good rest. I won’t say goodbye, because we’ll see each other again." As Lu Xiao finished speaking, her palm was already resting on Dean’s forehead.
As soon as she entered Dean’s Spirit Sea, the Dark Matter inside seed to co alive, lunging at her purification power.
No matter how Lu Xiao resisted, her power was inevitably consud. However, after two Spiritual Soothings, a tiny, clean area had finally appeared within Dean’s Spirit Sea.
It was finally showing so results.
Withdrawing from Dean’s Spirit Sea, Lu Xiao subconsciously grabbed onto sothing nearby for support. Her already pale face turned several shades whiter.
Hans quickly had the waiting doctor co in to check on her. He was relieved only after confirming that Lu Xiao was just overly exhausted and her body was otherwise fine.
Lu Xiao glanced at the sleeping Dean. "Monitor the duration of his sleep. Also, Admiral Hans, don’t forget what you promised ."
"Please rest assured, Miss Lu Xiao. I will absolutely do what I promised. Will you rest here, or shall I have soone send you back?" Just as Admiral Hans finished speaking, Teacher Ai Li pushed her way in and took Lu Xiao’s arm. "I’ve already contacted Lu Xiao’s side husband. He’s here now. We won’t be staying."
Feeling Teacher Ai Li’s sharp gaze, Admiral Hans stepped back in embarrassnt. He knew what Teacher Ai Li ant; she was just worried that if Lu Xiao rested here, she would be asked to perform another Spiritual Soothing for Dean after waking up.
’I’m being treated like a thief.’
But there was nothing Admiral Hans could say.
Lu Xiao, however, looked at Teacher Ai Li in surprise. "You called Ares?"
Teacher Ai Li nodded. "He is your side husband. In your current state, if he doesn’t take care of you, who will?"
’That’s true, but if Ares sees like this, won’t he worry himself to death?’
’Then would it be this easy for to co out and do this sort of thing next ti?’
Lu Xiao forced herself to rally her spirits. "I feel much better, Teacher Ai Li. You don’t have to support . I can walk on my own. Really, I feel great right now!"
Ai Li looked at her deathly pale face, not understanding why she was putting up such a strong front. "Just give it a rest, Lu Xiao. Otherwise, there won’t be a next ti. Don’t forget, at the Fifth Research Institute, I am your superior!"
As she finished speaking, Ai Li shot a pointed glance at Hans.
Her aning was perfectly clear. It was a warning.
Admiral Hans could only offer a placating smile and didn’t dare say another word.
Lu Xiao realized that Teacher Ai Li seed genuinely angry this ti, so she didn’t dare act up. She obediently let Teacher Ai Li support her out of the confinent cell. However, as she passed by Admiral Hans, she secretly winked at him.
Admiral Hans was taken aback for a mont, then he chuckled, moved, and nodded.
’How could there be such a gentle female? To think that even in her condition, she didn’t forget to consider his feelings.’
Supported by Teacher Ai Li all the way out of the containnt facility’s main gate, Lu Xiao imdiately spotted Ares standing next to a hovercar, his posture ramrod straight.
The man was still wearing his Major General’s uniform, standing there like a pine tree, as if he were fearless. ’He’s so handso!’
However, when their eyes t and she saw his worried expression, Lu Xiao felt a pang of guilt.
Just as Teacher Ai Li guided her into Ares’s arms and was about to say sothing, Lu Xiao imdiately wrapped her arms around Ares’s neck, burying her head in the crook of his neck. She even nuzzled him a bit. "Ares, let’s go ho quickly. I’m so sleepy!"
Ares’s body froze at her sudden, intimate gesture. Though his expression remained as stoic as if he were heading into battle, his face flushed bright red.
Even Teacher Ai Li hadn’t expected Lu Xiao’s daily interactions with her side husband to be like this.
While she was still montarily stunned, and before she could say anything, Ares had already scooped Lu Xiao up, turned, and strode toward the hovercar, having completely forgotten she was even there.
Lu Xiao, on the other hand, didn’t forget. She turned her head and waved at Teacher Ai Li.
Teacher Ai Li paused, stunned for a mont, then waved back, signaling for Lu Xiao to just go.
Ares carried Lu Xiao into the car. Just as he was about to put her down, she suddenly tightened her arms, raised her eyes to et his confused dark ones, and asked, "Are you angry?"
Ares’s heart trembled, as if it had been gently brushed by soft down, a pleasant tingling spreading through him. "No."
"I didn’t an to get myself into this state. There were reasons. The doctor already checked ; it’s just exhaustion. I’ll be fine after a good sleep at ho. There’s nothing wrong with my body, so don’t be angry, okay?"
Ares lowered his gaze to Lu Xiao. The small female was staring up at him, her beautiful dark eyes reflecting his image, as if he were the only person she could see in the entire world.
"Why aren’t you saying anything?" Seeing Ares’s Adam’s apple bob as he remained silent, Lu Xiao began to panic.
"Are you that scared of being angry?"
