Chapter 2060 - 163: A Diversion in the East and West
She saw the wounds on the little one’s body, the skin split open with gashes everywhere.
The tattered clothes clung to him, yet still left him barely covered.
The seawater had wet the wounds, some areas were soaked too much, and the bleeding was particularly severe. Just looking at it was shocking, making one’s heart ache as if it were being twisted.
Yu Zimu saw it too and gasped.
Just by looking, it felt so painful, as if the wounds were on one’s own body, hurting immensely.
How could he be so injured? It didn’t look like it was from a shark attack or something similar; it seemed more like the marks left by a whip.
Not only that, but he was also unconscious.
What exactly had Huo Xiaowu gone through?
Huo Jinnan removed the little one’s clothes and wrapped him in his own, holding him in his arms.
Yu Zimu hurriedly went to call Qiao Qiao.
Qiao Qiao woke up, saw the wounds on the little one, and without medicine to treat them, could only care for him cautiously.
Looking over at Qin Huan, who sat there with her brows tightly furrowed, covering her mouth and crying, not knowing how to comfort her.
Huo Jinnan finished tending to the little one, gave him some water to drink, then turned to Qin Huan, pulling her into his embrace.
Qin Huan buried her head in his chest, just crying without a sound.
Huo Jinnan kissed her forehead.
Only then did Qin Huan remember Jin Bo’s absence, "Where is Brother?"
Huo Jinnan, "I didn’t see him when we came out."
Huo Bei was also curious; when they went in, the East Team didn’t go, and when they returned, the East Team was gone.
Moreover, when they went in, the East Team’s reaction was very unusual.
Huo Jinnan said, "Don’t worry, he can take care of himself. Maybe something unexpected happened."
Huo Bei couldn’t find Xiaoxi, feeling worried inside.
Huo Jinnan looked back at Huo Bei, "We’ll rest tonight and look for them tomorrow."
Huo Bei responded with a sound, sitting on one side, his eyes fixed on the burning flames.
The red flames reflected in his eyes.
The young master is so gravely injured; could it be that Xiaoxi—
Thinking of this made his breathing difficult.
Moreover, the East Team’s mysterious disappearance, and the estate’s owner initially saying they hadn’t found anyone, yet suddenly handing over the young master to them.
What had happened in between?
Although the people at the estate said their people found the young master outside and had just brought him back, it was completely unconvincing.
Thinking of this, he looked back at Huo Xiaowu, silently voicing in his heart: I don’t know when the young master will wake up.
Perhaps he knows something.
The next day, after breakfast, the little one finally woke up.
Opening his eyes, he saw the overly blue sky above his head, pursing his little lips.
Xiaoliao and Xiaoqi were guarding nearby, noticing his awakening.
Xiaoliao, "Brother."
Xiaoqi, "Brother."
Xiaoliao and Xiaoqi?
The little one quickly heard Xiaoqi’s crying, wanting to hug and comfort her, but as soon as he moved, his whole body was pulled by the pain.
He frowned and didn’t move further.
Huo Jinnan and Qin Huan also heard the movement and came over.
The little one saw Huo Jinnan and Huanhuan, trying to stay strong, but suddenly pursed his lips, his nose tingled, and his eyes turned red.
Qin Huan came over, taking a deep breath, "Xiaowu."
The little one reached out and squeezed Qin Huan’s hand.
His mother’s hand was no longer soft but somewhat rough, surely due to the sea breeze.
Qin Huan wanted to hug the little one but was afraid of touching his wounds, her brow tightly knit.
The little one smiled at Qin Huan, speaking in a low voice, "Huanhuan, I’m fine."
