Chapter 830: How Do You Feel

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lu Tong had no idea how many people had been watching his every move. When he ‘woke up’ in the ward, he saw Yuan Tianxing sitting on the couch by the bedside, just like how he expected.

“Eh-hem…” Lu Tong coughed slightly. Yuan Tianxing immediately looked at him.

“You’re awake. How do you feel? Is your head still aching?” Yuan Tianxing dropped the file in his hand and stood up to walk to the bed. His handsome face showed a look of concern.

“I… I’m fine,” Lu Tong’s voice was a little dry. He made that voice on purpose.

Yuan Tianxing poured him a cup of water, then helped him up from the bed and said, “Have some water. You are not healthy… Don’t work too hard. You are a space possessor, so I assume you get an allowance from the base. You don’t need to work at the construction site.”

Lu Tong didn’t take over the cup, but directly drank from it. Then, he shook his head and said, “It’s not enough… I… I want to move out of my flat and live alone. I still need a lot of credits for that…”

He embarrassedly lowered his head while speaking, seemingly not daring to look at Yuan Tianxing in the eyes. He tried to make Yuan Tianxing think that he didn’t mean to mention that, but only said it to answer the question.

He knew that Yuan Tianxing would probably arrange a single flat for him, but he could not let the latter know how he really thought.

Space possessors were seen as rare resources, like water-powered people. Therefore, they had special welfare in every base.

“You want to live alone? That’s simple. We have plenty of rooms in the base now. You’re a space possessor. For your safety, we do need to let you have your own flat,” Yuan Tianxing smiled gently as he put the empty cup aside while comforting him.

Lu Tong had his eyes glowing, as if he was so happy to hear that. But soon, he dropped his head again and said, “No… I… I want to earn my own flat by myself… Thank you, Deputy Chief. I really appreciate your kindness.”

He was thrilled on the inside, yet he still rejected the offer and acted like someone who had backbone.

Hearing what he said, Yuan Tianxing made eye-contact with the other man in the ward.

“Look at yourself… You should rest now. If you’re not strong enough, how will you be able to go out and find supplies with the army in the future?” said Du Yuanxing with a serious face.

Du Yuanxing was there to see Yuan Tianxing for work. He heard what happened, then came into the ward and saw someone he knew. So, he stayed there.

“What happened to your head? Chen Hao and his people have all died. I think no one will want to hurt you now. Do you have any new enemies?” Du Yuanxing looked at the gauze on his head with a frown.

“I… I don’t know! That day… I was walking… and suddenly got hit on the head… I passed out after a great pain… I don’t know who attacked me…” Lu Tong acted very scared. He wasn’t like that when Du Yuanxing saw him the last time.

Du Yuanxing looked at him and frowned with confusion. Lu Tong didn’t look like that earlier when he was interrogated. Why was he acting so scared now?

He glanced at Yuan Tianxing who was on the other side of the room. He felt strange about the whole thing, but didn’t know why.

“It’s my fault this time. I accidentally bumped into this injured man,” said Yuan Tianxing to Du Yuanxing. “Rest well,” he then continued to Lu Tong, “I’ll invite you for dinner as my apology when you’re discharged from the hospital. Don’t you worry about your accommodation. I’ll make some arrangements for you.” After saying that, he turned back to Du Yuanxing and continued, “Yuanxing, arrange a single flat for this man.”

“Yes, sir!” Du Yuanxing nodded.

Then, Yuan Tianxing smiled at Lu Tong mildly and said, “You should stay here and rest. I still have work to do, so I’ll head back to my office.”

“I’m deeply sorry for wasting your time. Please get back to your work, Deputy Chief,” Lu Tong sat up from the bed and said to Yuan Tianxing apologetically. The humble smile on his face made him look like a very well-educated young man.

As Yuan Tianxing and Du Yuanxing left, the smile on his face was replaced by a perky grin.

His plan had worked well. As he expected, Yuan Tianxing easily promised him a single flat, and was going to invite him for dinner.

That was a great surprise! He was thinking about how to make Yuan Tianxing agree to have a meal together with him, so he could use the drug on him. Yuan Tianxing normally ate in his office, so Lu Tong couldn’t think of a way to put the drug in this food.

Of course, he didn’t get close to Yuan Tianxing only for a single flat. He needed to be able to rely on the latter. He planned to make Yuan Tianxing do something to hurt him, and then feel guilty for him. In that way, Yuan Tianxing would be willing to take extra care of him to make it up for him, and he would get whatever he wanted easily.

While Lu Tong was imagining how great his life would be after his plan succeeded, Yuan Tianxing said to Du Yuanxing on the other side, “You said that all his enemies have died, right? So, how did he get injured this time?”

Du Yuanxing responded a little confusedly, “He was with a group of people on his way from Hades Base to here. He knew a secret about one of those men, and the secret had something to do with Deputy Chief Lin’s wife. Therefore, after they arrived at our base, that man planned to frame Lu Tong and get him killed, so he wouldn’t leak the secret. But, that man was stupid enough to involve Xiaolu and Tongtong in his plan…”

After explaining to Yuan Tianxing about the relationship between Lu Tong and Chen Hao, Du Yuanxing added, “Those people have been taken care of. If there are some other people who might want him dead, that would probably be the group of commoners who arrived together with them.”

He was talking about Wang Jian and his people.

“However,” Du Yuanxing continued, “no one saw the people who attacked him that day. No suspicious people were found nearby either.”

“That’s weird,” Yuan Tianxing scratched his chin while walking.

At that moment, a group of people arrived at the base. They parked their car before the zombie wall in the middle of the road, waiting there.

“Do you think she’ll send a person or a zombie here?” said a doll-faced girl who was standing before the others. An expressionless, handsome young man responded with a bland tone, “I don’t know.”

Sitting beside the young man was a huge black dog. It was at about the same height as the girl, who was around one-hundred and fifty centimeters tall, when it was sitting on the ground. The dog would be taller than the girl’s waist when it stood up.

Standing behind the two of them and the dog were a few people, who had their faces wrapped up in scarves.
