Chapter 1488 Healing Injuries

"Gu Dongxing?" The warrior on the hospital bed suddenly lit up: "You’re Gu Dongxing’s fiancée?"

Mengyu nodded. "Yeah. You know my fiancé, Gu Dongxing?"

The warrior’s eyes filled with hot tears. "I used to be one of the soldiers under his command."

Mengyu suddenly remembered that Gu Dongxing had also been to the battlefield; his rank as an officer was promoted because of his battle achievements.

She hadn’t expected that some of his former soldiers were still out on the front line.

No, that didn’t quite add up. In the memories from her previous life, that border battlefield had, after a large-scale war, been turned into a training ground. Everyone rotated through for drills. So why had this warrior stayed on the battlefield the whole time?

But other people’s business wasn’t something Mengyu intended to pry into. She only asked for the warrior’s name: Hao Donglai!

Huh, his name even sounded a bit similar to Gu Dongxing’s. But there was still a difference: one "comes from the East," basically walking from East to West, while the other "heads east," naturally moving from West to East.

After saying goodbye to the director, Mengyu went back to the ward.

She had no idea that she had just left and the wounded she’d treated were immediately taken away for study.

After leaving the hospital, she went outside, took out the minivan, removed a few seats, then drove it back and moved the still-unconscious Gu Dongxing into it.

Cheng Jiuhe told his own driver to take the small car and go on ahead; he himself got into Mengyu’s minivan. Mengyu personally took the wheel. After the vehicle left the hospital and entered a forest, she put the van away into the space, then took out the Five Elements Fan, moved Gu Dongxing onto it, and the three of them rode the Five Elements Fan together.

Mengyu took him straight back to Yang’an Small Courtyard overnight. It was still before dawn. But since it was New Year’s Eve, firecrackers were going off everywhere; probably no one could really fall asleep anyway.

Sure enough, just as Mengyu landed in the courtyard, Le Shan and Le Shui, Le Yin, and Qing Wen all rushed over:

"Master, how’s Master Gu?"

"Eldest Lady, how is the young master?"

"Yeah, Eldest Lady, the young master is okay, right?"

Qing Wen opened his mouth, wanting to say something more, but Mengyu waved her hand. "He’s fine, he’s fine. Go about your business, what are you crowding around for? All of you, go back to sleep!"

After shooing everyone back to their rooms, Mengyu settled Gu Dongxing in her own bedroom. She thought for a moment, then asked Cheng Jiuhe, "Brother, how long of a leave can Dongxing get?"

Even though she’d had Xiao Tao spend ten Merit Points to exchange for a Repairing Dantian medicine and had fed it to Gu Dongxing, fully repairing the Dantian would still take about three months. And once the Dantian was repaired, his Golden Core would also need repairs. Without at least a year or two, it probably couldn’t be fully restored.

"I’ll explain the situation to the higher-ups. Your brother-in-law’s rank definitely won’t change, but his post can only be kept for up to three months. If it goes beyond that, there will likely be some adjustments."

Mengyu frowned. "If that happens, does it mean you two won’t be partners anymore?"

Cheng Jiuhe fell silent.

Mengyu knew that being able to keep Gu Dongxing’s position for three months was already the most Cheng Jiuhe could do. So she had to make sure Gu Dongxing fully recovered within those three months.

She thought of the space. She and Gu Dongxing had already formed a Life and Death Contract, so it was time to let him know about the space.

She just couldn’t take Dongxing into the space to heal right in front of Cheng Jiuhe, because she still wasn’t planning to expose the Taoyuan Space to him.

It wasn’t that she didn’t trust Cheng Jiuhe; she just felt that the fewer people knew this secret, the better.

The Taoyuan Space was simply too against the heavens. Especially the things that could be exchanged with Merit Points—she always felt that, in the unseen, someone was manipulating everything that happened inside this space.
