Chapter 57 The Rift

Although the wound and bleeding were treated promptly, it was done without anesthesia, so Zhang Miaomiao endured it mostly through gritted teeth.

Furthermore, without adequate medical equipment for wound treatment and suturing, the process was very crude.

The situation was urgent at the time, with Zhang Miaomiao's entire forearm covered in blood. Li Yunlong could only adopt the most conservative approach to save her.

He didn't even dare to think about anesthesia, anti-inflammatory drugs, or painkillers.

After bandaging Zhang Miaomiao's wound and stabilizing her condition, Li Yunlong finally felt confident enough to ask Chen Jiakai to find medication.

The medicine was found, but she had already suffered all the pain she was going to.

Zhang Miaomiao lay listlessly in Li Yunlong's arms, her eyes closed, not wanting to deal with anything.

She was truly exhausted, sleepy, and uncomfortable. Her stomach was empty, she had lost so much blood, and she didn't know if her arm would fully recover. Her current predicament was truly a case of misfortune piling on misfortune.

Fortunately, the painkillers, anti-inflammatory drugs, and antibiotics she had taken were starting to work, and her pain was no longer as intense.

With the pain subsiding, she felt a strong sense of hunger.

Thinking that she needed to eat well to heal and recover from her injury, she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Li Yunlong, "Yunlong, I'm hungry."

"I'll go prepare food with Akai," Jiang Zhimin said before Li Yunlong could respond.

After speaking, she quickly wiped away her tears, pulled Chen Jiakai to his feet, and they swiftly left the scene.

After they left, Zhang Miaomiao found a comfortable position in Li Yunlong's arms and spoke in a weak, powerless voice: "Yunlong, when my hand is healed, let's leave on our own. We won't go with them anymore."

Anyone who had pushed her out to take the blow during a dangerous moment had already landed on her blacklist.

However, for now, she couldn't afford to fall out with them.

This was because she was injured and still needed someone to take care of her.

She had a boyfriend, it was true, but she wouldn't let her boyfriend be responsible for all of this.

Because the one who made the mistake should be the one to bear the consequences.

Li Yunlong looked at Zhang Miaomiao with immense heartache, gently stroking her face. "Okay, but you'll have to endure this for a while. Bear with it, and when you're healed, we'll settle the score later." If that cleaver had struck true, and he hadn't reacted quickly enough to pull Miaomiao aside, it would have landed on her neck. If it had indeed hit her neck, he would have gone mad and made Jiang Zhimin experience it firsthand.

Zhang Miaomiao nodded in Li Yunlong's arms. "I'll rest for a bit. Wake me when the food is ready."

"Sleep, I'll stay with you."

Meanwhile,

After Jiang Zhimin and Chen Kai left, they began preparing the tools and ingredients for cooking.

Throughout the entire process, Jiang Zhimin couldn't stop crying.

Her eyes were red and swollen, so much so that everything around her appeared blurry.

Chen Jiakai remained silent, only occasionally wiping away her tears for her.

"I was so awful!" Jiang Zhimin sobbed into Chen Jiakai's arms, her grief palpable. "Yunlong and Miaomiao will hate me now. I'm so terrible, how could I have pushed Miaomiao out in that situation?"

Chen Jiakai, holding a pot and a portable stove, couldn't embrace her. He could only comfort her, "Stop crying. If you keep crying, your eyes will go blind."

"It's not entirely your fault. The situation was critical, and your actions were instinctive. What we need to do now is take good care of Miaomiao, ensure she eats, drinks, and sleeps well, and that her arm heals completely."
