Days and nights of pursuit of Dottore

Chapter 173: What a disappointing guy!

Cheng Yan was wrapped up like a mummy, with only his head sticking out. It was an obviously humorous scene, but Guo Beng only felt tears in his eyes when he saw it.

His body ached as if he had been trampled by dozens of horses, but Cheng Yan ignored his injuries and struggled to pull his bandaged hands out from under the quilt.

"Where is the person next to me? Besides Niwa, isn't there another person next to me? Where is he?"

Cheng Yan's finger bones were powerless, so he could only hold Guo Beng's hand loosely, his eyes flickering, revealing a bit of fragility.

Guo Beng gently tucked Cheng Yan's hand back into the quilt, "You're already like this, why do you still care about what others do."

Cheng Yan's eyes tightened, "Just tell me, where is he now?"

Guo Beng looked at Cheng Yan's pale lips and tilted his head in anger.

His tone was hard, "I don't know."

Cheng Yan was stunned for a moment, then pressed down on the bed and tried to turn over.

Guo Beng immediately held him down. There was no place on Cheng Yan's body that he could touch, so he could only hold his shoulders with difficulty.

"Do you want to die?"

Cheng Yan's eyes suddenly turned red, and he looked at Guo Beng with pleading.

"Please tell me where he is."

Guo Beng looked grim, "Lie back down first."

Yae Shinko looked at the two people who were about to argue and crossed her arms over her chest.

"Little guy, don't embarrass our classmate Lei Dian Guo Beng. He really doesn't know that when I found him in the clinic outside Inazuma Castle, his arm had been chopped by the imperial carriage chief. I asked him to rest, but he didn't listen and rushed to Talingsha to find you."

The Eightfold Son of God paused for a moment and met Cheng Yan's earnest gaze.

"When we saw you, there were only you and that kid named Niwa. You were covered in blood, so we immediately took you in and treated you. As for the other person you mentioned, we definitely didn't see him."

"But... when I came back to apply medicine on you, the wounds on your body did show signs of having been treated. Perhaps it was done by the person you mentioned?"

Cheng Yan's heart trembled, and the wound that he had not felt before now began to hurt intensely.

Looking down at the snow-white bandages wrapped around his body, Cheng Yan had tears in his eyes but smiled.

"Haha, I should be happy. He was willing to treat my wounds and didn't let me die there."

He was filled with despair and frustration, and his inner anxiety was completely released after meeting Zandik.

"But he still left. He still didn't want to face me."

A gloomy and sad mood spread from Cheng Yan. The Eightfold God Son looked at Cheng Yan's distraught appearance and Guo Beng's increasingly gloomy face.

He took a step forward, stretched out his hand, and pulled Ying away.

The door was closed, and Guo Beng could finally release the breath that was choking him.

He reached out, grabbed Cheng Yan's hand, which was wrapped so tightly that its original appearance could not be seen, and squeezed it hard.

His finger bones seemed to be broken, but Cheng Yan didn't make a sound. He just looked up at Guo Beng, and the tears accumulated in his eyes flowed down without any obstruction, like a flood that had been opened.

"I hurt so much."

His voice was choked with sobs, but Cheng Yan did not pull his hand back, allowing Guo Beng to vent his anger.

Guo Beng pushed Cheng Yan's hand back in dismay, "Hurt? Then have you learned your lesson? Don't tell me that your injuries were caused by Niwa. Besides Niwa, the other person at the scene must be the person you are reluctant to leave now."

As he spoke, he observed Cheng Yan's expression and clenched his teeth even tighter.

"Can you be more capable? He hurt you like this, you should remember this harsh lesson and get revenge on him someday. What's the point of crying?"

Cheng Yan trembled when he was yelled at, and raised his hand to wipe his tears. His hand bones were aching and he couldn't use any strength. His face was smeared with tears, but he still stretched his neck to speak to Zandik.

"I ran into his knife myself! He couldn't bear to let me get hurt, so he bandaged my wound!"

Guo Beng's eyelids twitched and veins bulged on his forehead.

"I bandaged your wounds! It has nothing to do with him! You did something wrong and just ran away. Does he care about you at all?"

Cheng Yan's eyes flickered, and his tears stopped flowing. He no longer had the confidence to say back.

"You, why didn't you say so earlier?"

Guo Beng was so angry that he laughed. He put his hands on his waist and stared at Cheng Yan's face.

"Would it be useful to tell him earlier? Isn't he the one who's in my heart and eyes? Okay, he's the one who did all the good things, and I'm the only bad guy, right?"

Guo Beng shook his sleeves vigorously, turned around and was about to leave, but as he took a step, a force behind him grabbed his clothes tightly.

Guo Beng turned back and said, "Let go."

Cheng Yan shook his head vigorously, tears about to flow down again, "He also said these two words to me...you say them now too, I won't let you go, don't leave me."

Guo Beng took a deep breath, turned his head and looked at the "mummy" who was struggling behind him, and silently told himself that he should not argue with a patient.

"I'm not leaving. You lie back down."

"You promise!" Cheng Yan confirmed anxiously.

After closing his eyes tightly, Guo Beng turned around and pushed Cheng Yan back into the bed. He sat on the edge of the bed, tiptoed, and looked at Cheng Yan with his arms folded. His face still didn't look very good.

Cheng Yan turned his head with difficulty on the bed and looked at Guo Beng with watery eyes.

"Thank you for bandaging me."

Guo Beng snorted heavily, "Who cares about your thanks?"

Cheng Yan curled his lips, looked at the person sitting next to him, and stared at the wound on Guo Beng's arm.

"what happened to your hand?"

Guo Beng lowered his eyes and took a look, with a stern look in his eyes.

"Chang Zheng has gone mad. In order to conceal the incident at the Ta'er Blade Forge, he wants to kill all the sick workers to silence them."

Cheng Yan's eyes widened slightly, "Isn't he very close to Niwa and Katsuragi? Wouldn't this implicate everyone in the sword forging field?"

Guo Beng had a complicated expression. "For the sake of his family, we so-called friends can naturally be abandoned. He was so decisive when he attacked me, I don't care about him as a friend."

His own injuries were not worth mentioning. Guo Beng looked at the crooked bandage on his arm and recalled the clumsy look of Ying when he bandaged him...

There was a subtle hint of disdain in her eyes, but upon closer inspection, the snow-white earlobe was quietly turning red.

The knife was swung quickly, but it was difficult to bandage the wound properly.
