That’s right, in the room next door, Ma Hongwei, who had been in a coma, woke up.
Right at this crucial mont, he woke up!
I freaking...
Xu Xin’s enhanced hearing could capture all the sounds around him. Just now, he heard the sound of Ma Hongwei getting up; he had already sat up from the bed.
Sure enough, from the other bedroom ca Ma Hongwei’s voice: "Uh, Brother Xin, are you there? Is this your treehouse?"
"Ah!" Upon hearing soone else’s voice, Li Wenxi trembled slightly, imdiately jumped out of Xu Xin’s arms, grabbed his arm to hide behind him, and looked wide-eyed toward the other room, "Is... is there soone else in this house?"
...Really, I’m speechless.
Xu Xin replied helplessly, "I’m here. This is indeed my treehouse."
With that, he pushed open the door to the other bedroom where Ma Hongwei was and walked in.
He saw Ma Hongwei sitting on the bed, struggling to support himself. Upon seeing Xu Xin co in, his initially tense expression relaxed: "So this really is your treehouse, I..."
Then he noticed Li Wenxi following behind Xu Xin, her face still blushing.
This woman was all too familiar to him; wasn’t she the woman from the treehouse north of his original position!
Recalling the things he had said about this woman before, he shrank his head a bit, feeling a little scared, and cautiously said: "Did I wake up at the wrong ti, interrupting you two?"
Xu Xin couldn’t help but laugh, shook his head: "Forget it, it’s good that you’re awake. Does your body feel any different?"
"Just a bit weak, the injuries are all healed, but..." Recalling the scene of being nearly crushed alive in the treehouse earlier, Ma Hongwei shivered, "That big snake... what the hell is that thing? It’s too terrifying!"
"Since I ca to this world, it has always been in that lake." Xu Xin sighed, "It’s my mistake."
"Big snake?" Li Wenxi was puzzled, "What are you talking about? What big snake? Is there a big snake in the lake beside you?"
Xu Xin had not yet told Li Wenxi about the Lake Giant Python, so naturally, she was a bit confused.
"A gigantic snake!" Ma Hongwei swallowed hard, his eyes filled with fear but also a hint of relief, "It literally crushed to death, but luckily, I can now heal lethal injuries. Ah, this pill is virtually miraculous!"
Li Wenxi couldn’t quite understand what he was talking about, but she knew who the person in front of her was. Smiling subtly, she said, "You must be the Ma Hongwei from the treehouse south of mine, right? The one who made the crossbow for us? Thank you! If it weren’t for your crossbow, I might not have lasted until Xu Xin ca to save ."
"Ah? No, no, no need to thank . I’m with Brother Xin now, it’s my duty, my duty." Ma Hongwei felt like he was a head shorter in front of Li Wenxi and was a bit afraid to speak.
"...You can stay here tonight. Go back tomorrow. There’s actually nothing in your treehouse right now." Xu Xin sighed and said this sentence.
What a pity, it was all going so well.
Ma Hongwei glanced at Li Wenxi, who looked a bit disappointed, and instantly understood what was going on. He then quickly waved his hands: "No, no, I’ll just go back! I’ll just make a bed, not comfortable sleeping in soone else’s treehouse!"
He was telling the truth; with his cautious nature, he never slept in soone else’s room.
However, since this was Xu Xin’s treehouse, as a Contractor, plus the place was influenced by Keke, making it feel very comfortable, he actually really wanted to stay. But...
Forget it, bringing a woman back at night, you could guess what would happen with your eyes closed. Ruining the host and hostess’s mood would be a sin.
If Xu Xin could hear what he was saying, he would undoubtedly tell him speechlessly, you’ve already ruined the mood!
"Stay here."
"No, no, no, I’ll still go back! Really, not used to it!"
"You sure you want to go back?"
"Definitely going back!"
"...Alright then, I’ll walk you back." Xu Xin was actually more than happy for him to leave.
"I’ll go with you!" Li Wenxi chid in.
Xu Xin helped Ma Hongwei off the bed and asked, "Can you walk?"
"Hmm..." Ma Hongwei stomped his feet lightly, his eyes gradually widening, "I can walk, I can walk. It seems like I’m much better than the last period of weakness, not as weak as last ti, walking is definitely no problem!"
Hmm?
Last ti, Xu Xin had forced him into the explosive mode mutation to subdue him.
And this ti, it was his second ti entering the explosive mode.
Even Lou Fei’Er had only entered the explosive mode once.
"Does this an you’ve adjusted a lot better this ti?" Xu Xin’s eyes widened a bit as he asked.
"Clearly, during the last period of weakness, I could hardly stand at first, even when I was about to recover, getting up and walking was tough." Ma Hongwei pinched his thigh, slightly ecstatic, "This ti, I feel like walking shouldn’t be a problem! Is this weakness period sothing you can get used to? Should I enter explosive mode more often in the future, will I then..."
"Don’t go into explosive mode unless it’s critical." Xu Xin interrupted his thought, "The more tis you go into explosive mode, the heavier your mutated bloodline becos, and I have no idea what that might lead to in the future."
