Chapter 957: Thank You for Saving Me

The next afternoon, Wen Yan finally got to see Jian Yiling.

“Yiling…” Wen Yan called out. His brows were slightly furrowed and it appeared as though he was a bit nervous.

There were a lot of things that he wanted to say to Jian Yiling. However, when he saw her, he only managed to get out the word ‘Yiling’.

Jian Yiling nodded at him.

Then, Jian Yiling brought over some freshly picked loquat fruit and placed it on Wen Yan’s bedside table.

In China, it was currently winter. However, as Lahaisen Island was located in the tropics, winter essentially did not exist.

There were quite a few fruit trees on the island.

“Did you climb trees again?” Wen Yan asked.

Jian Yiling shook her head before she replied: “I used a ladder.”

Wen Yan’s mind conjured up the image of Jian Yiling picking loquat fruits on top of a ladder.

After a pause, Jian Yiling said: “These fruits are for you to eat. Thank you for saving me.”

A simple thank you from Jian Yiling almost made Wen Yan cry.

They were no longer young and ignorant.

In the past, they were carefree, happy, and lively.

However, now, they had all changed. They were all carrying a lot of weight on their shoulders.

“Yiling, can we still go back to those times?” Wen Yan asked Jian Yiling.

Upon being asked this, Jian Yiling pondered for a while before she replied: “I don’t know. However, we can try.”

Wen Yan’s eyes began to become red as he nodded: “Yep, we can try.”

At this moment, Liu Ting walked in. He asked: “Am I interrupting you guys?”

“Nope,” Jian Yiling replied.

Wen Yan did not reply. However, his eyes appeared to be telling a different story to Jian Yiling’s words.

Liu ting came over with a medical box and said: “It’s time for injections.”

Then, he took out a needle syringe and began to tear open the wrapping paper in front of Wen Yan.

It was a very large needle syringe… It looked quite terrifying.

“Why do I need an injection?” Wen Yan asked. For some reason, he felt as though Liu Ting was constantly out to mess with him.

“Don’t you want your legs to recover sooner? This new drug will be injected into your muscles. It helps muscle recovery. In addition, it’s exclusive to our hospital. Even if you want this type of drug from another hospital, you won’t be able to get your hands on it. You should feel honored.”

“Why can’t we use intravenous infusions?” Wen Yan asked.

“Intravenous infusions and intramuscular injections are not the same things. This is for muscles. Naturally, intramuscular injections have to be used. If you don’t believe me, ask Yiling!”

Jian Yiling could testify for Liu Ting: “It’s true.”

Her soft and docile reply was much more convincing than Liu Ting’s words.

“There will be four injections. Are you ready?” Liu ting asked with an amused and cheeky expression on his face.

Normally, this was quite an ordinary thing. However, his smile made everything feel abnormal.

“Why are there four injections?” Wen Yan asked again.

“Yiling, please explain to your cousin,” Liu Ting asked. He knew that his explanation would not be convincing.

“One for each of the two thighs and two calves,” Jian Yiling answered.

After confirming that Liu Ting was not messing with him, Wen Yan agreed to cooperate.

However, the next action of Liu Ting made Wen Yan’s face turn red and green simultaneously.

“Why are you being nervous? If I don’t take off your pants, how am I going to give you the injections? Am I meant to give them to you through your pants or something?” Liu Ting asked as he began to pull down Wen Yan’s pants.

“My sister is still here! Get her to leave first!” Wen Yan cried out as he desperately gripped onto his pants.

His legs were quite ugly. And even if his legs weren’t ugly, he did not want his sister to see his calves!

“Calm down man. What has your sister not seen before? Not to mention that your legs are super skinny. It’s essentially only bones. Your sister has seen them already.”

“Liu Ting!” Wen Yan cried out through gritted teeth.

“Alright alright. I will give you the injections after Yiling leaves the room. Sigh, you get embarrassed so easily.”

As Liu Ting complained about Wen Yan, Wen Yan’s face turned red.

Upon hearing this, Jian Yiling obediently left the room. She left space for Liu Ting to give Wen Yan the injections.
