He lay prone on the bed, face down, back up, just staying there quietly.
If it hadn’t been for his lack of strength, Zhang Xiaohao really wanted to shout out loud, calling for Xue’er and Bai’er to co and help him up, or at least to change to a more comfortable position!
But alas.
The severe loss of vital energy had left him without even the strength to speak.
His whole body felt sore and numb, as if ten thousand ants were biting at him, causing such intense pain.
If it were any normal day, this level of pain would have been nothing to Zhang Xiaohao.
With his willpower, even if the pain had doubled, he wouldn’t have furrowed his brow.
But now.
As his vital energy drained, the pain was amplified tenfold, brutally challenging Zhang Xiaohao’s nerves.
As ti passed, large beads of sweat dripped steadily from his forehead onto the bedsheets below.
His clothes were dampened, making him look like a giant lobster just pulled out of the water.
Gradually, Zhang Xiaohao’s body began to tremble slightly.
Ti flew by, and after five and a half hours, it reached noon.
Click!
The room’s door opened, and Cheng Tianxue and Su Ruobai, dressed in black OL professional attire, walked out.
Their faces bore sweet smiles, and as their gaze swept across the room, they instinctively looked towards the bed.
In an instant, the smiles on their faces froze.
"Ah! Zhang Xiaohao, what’s wrong with you?"
"Zhang Xiaohao, what trouble have you gotten into now?"
Cheng Tianxue and Su Ruobai both cried out in alarm, rushing forward to turn Zhang Xiaohao onto his back.
After five and a half hours of tornt, Zhang Xiaohao was drenched, and even the bed was completely wet from him.
Looking at his face, it was as white as paper, devoid of any hint of color.
At the mont, Zhang Xiaohao had his eyes closed, his body shaking fiercely, as if enduring imnse pain.
"He couldn’t have collapsed from exhaustion, could he?"
Seeing Zhang Xiaohao in this state, both Cheng Tianxue and Su Ruobai had the sa thought flash through their minds.
With that thought, the two won exchanged glances.
With a swish!
Embarrassnt flushed their cheeks, each thinking they had been too forceful and drained Zhang Xiaohao completely, causing his current state.
With cheeks red as apples, they were quite beautiful.
Pity such a picturesque scene was lost on Zhang Xiaohao.
"Ruobai, quick! Let’s help him inside together!" Cheng Tianxue said.
"Okay," Su Ruobai nodded.
Both won exerted themselves, attempting to lift Zhang Xiaohao up.
Without Zhang Xiaohao’s active cooperation, he was too heavy.
Thump!
Before they could lift him, the two won fell down onto the bed, landing on top of Zhang Xiaohao.
"Ah!" Zhang Xiaohao let out a groan of pain.
"Ruobai, this jerk is too heavy, go get help! Call Mr. Sun over, let them co and help, getting Zhang Xiaohao inside," Cheng Tianxue said.
"Okay!" Su Ruobai nodded, and dashed off toward the outside.
Bang!
The door flew open with sparks and lightning trailing as she rushed down the stairs.
"Grandpa Cheng, it’s terrible, sothing has happened! Zhang Xiaohao has had an accident, you all need to co quickly!" Su Ruobai shouted in panic.
With Zhang Xiaohao in trouble, she was completely panicked at this mont.
Before even reaching the bottom of the stairs, her frantic voice was already echoing down.
"General!" Downstairs, Mr. Cheng was smiling, holding a chess piece and making a move against Sun Dafu.
"Mr. Cheng, it seems like the boss has been injured, should we go over and check?" Sun Dafu said with concern.
"Haha! Old Sun, who do you think Xiaohao is, am I not aware? With his skills, as long as he doesn’t want to get hurt, who can harm him?" Mr. Cheng said proudly.
"That seems true!" Sun Dafu nodded in agreent.
"Grandpa Cheng, Mr. Sun, it’s bad! Zhang Xiaohao has had an accident, you must go and see!" Su Ruobai rushed down from upstairs and said.
"Had an accident? Hehe, if it were soone else, I might believe it, but Xiaohao—no! Ruobai, even if you want to joke with this old man, at least find a better reason! Hmm, your expression is award-winning, you could take ho a Golden Man. You must remain calm! Do you understand what I an by calm?" Mr. Cheng said, stroking his beard.
"Grandpa Cheng, Mr. Sun, it’s true, I’m not lying to you, Zhang Xiaohao really has had an accident! He’s almost at his last breath! There might not even be ti for last words, you must go and see!" Su Ruobai spoke frantically.
"Hmm? Ruobai, are you serious?" Mr. Cheng asked.
"Yes." Su Ruobai nodded emphatically.
Whoosh!
Mr. Cheng suddenly stood up from his chair, moving so quickly! He dashed up the stairs with great haste.
Sun Dafu refused to be left behind and with a nudge of his foot, even employing his martial arts footwork, he shot up to the second floor.
"Ah! Grandpa Cheng, Mr. Sun, slow down, watch the stairs!" Su Ruobai hurriedly called out.
Thinking suspiciously to herself, weren’t we supposed to stay calm? Why are they more panicked than I am?
Shaking her head, Su Ruobai stopped pondering and hastened upstairs.
At that mont, Sister Zhou happened to walk out from the kitchen and, seeing the commotion, thought that Zhang Xiaohao really was in trouble, so she took out her phone and called Cheng Qingsu.
Once the call connected, Sister Zhou’s voice broke with tears as she conveyed the news of Zhang Xiaohao’s critical condition to Cheng Qingsu.
Cheng Qingsu was in class at the ti and, upon hearing the desperate news about her brother-in-law, she abruptly stood up! She threw the textbook onto the desk and exclaid, "Study on your own today!"
Then she raced outside.
Sitting below, Zhou Yating and Zhao Ling’er blinked in surprise.
"It seems like sothing has happened in Teacher Cheng’s family!" Zhao Ling’er said.
"Ah! That’s not good! I need to head back right now!" Zhou Yating ca to her senses and, with a start, stood up from her chair and rushed outside.
"Ah! Yating, wait for , I’ll ride my bike and take you!" Zhao Ling’er called out.
She too quickly got up and hurried outside.
As ti passed, even Zhang Jing and Xu Xinyan received the ssage and headed to the Cheng family villa at the earliest opportunity.
In a room on the second floor.
Sun Dafu furrowed his brows and withdrew his hand.
"How is it?" Seeing him retract his hand, Cheng Tianxue and the others urgently asked.
"Alas! My dical skills are too shallow, just scratching the surface; I can’t figure out the boss’s condition!" Sun Dafu said.
"Ah! What should we do? Should we send Zhang Xiaohao to the hospital?" Cheng Tianxue said anxiously.
"Eh! I rember now." Su Ruobai’s eyes lit up as she spoke.
"What do you rember?" Hearing Su Ruobai’s words, Cheng Tianxue and the others asked urgently.
"Call Elder Mo over! Elder Mo’s dical skills were passed down from Zhang Xiaohao himself; maybe he has a way to cure him." Su Ruobai said hastily.
