Chapter 1440: The Interstellar Pirate Is a Bit Tame 43
He didn’t know why he cared about her this much either.
Even more, he couldn’t accept her having any intimate behavior with any man.
He knew what he said was hurtful.
He also knew she was angry.
She didn’t want to talk to him.
He deliberately skipped meals, refused to drink supplements, just to make her come find him.
He liked the way Su Yan would hold his hand, speaking softly and seriously to him.
It was just that she seemed to care more about that man called Su Xiao.
He kind of regretted it.
Afraid that from now on she would never want to talk to him again.
His heart ached; the person she cared about most wasn’t him.
He’d heard from his subordinates that girls all liked shiny things.
But where on Deep Blue Star was he supposed to find gemstones?
With no other choice, he could only retrace his steps and go look for that spider they’d killed.
There was a refined Crystal Stone inside its body.
Once he took it, he’d coax her, tell her not to be mad anymore.
From now on, he wouldn’t bully her.
Whatever she said, would go.
Only, when he went back, he just so happened to run into the female spider that was paired with it.
Clearly, that female spider also had its eyes on the Crystal Stone in the male’s body.
In the end, it was still him who won.
He killed the female spider and snatched that Crystal Stone.
But one of the female spider’s blade-like spines pierced right through his abdomen.
He came to this cave.
He’d only meant to rest a while before going to find her.
Who knew she would come looking on her own first.
As soon as he saw her, Huo You couldn’t help the sourness in his chest.
Those barbed words just slipped out like that.
He really did push her too hard.
To the point she didn’t even want to respond to him.
He had no choice; Huo You couldn’t care about pride or face anymore.
He pulled out that shiny stone and shoved it into Su Yan’s hand.
He actually wanted to say, don’t be mad at me.
But he’d never apologized before.
Now that he really had to, he couldn’t force the words out.
He could only try to please her, like some little lapdog.
Dirty and wretched.
Su Yan pulled him into a hug.
She felt a bit sad.
Looking at that stone, she opened your mouth, her voice rough and tight
"I really like it."
After she finished, she pressed the emergency distress signal device issued by the Military Academy that was on her hand.
His injuries were severe.
The supplies here were nowhere near enough to save him.
Once she hit the distress signal, it meant she’d chosen to abandon this training mission.
Which meant she’d failed.
Just then, hurried footsteps sounded from behind.
Followed by a shout:
"Boss."
Su Yan turned around.
She saw a group of strong men coming over.
Su Yan’s gaze swept over the man leading them.
She recognized him; his name was Kuan Yu.
He was the one who’d pretended to kidnap her and taken her away before.
Kuan Yu frowned and strode over.
Su Yan spoke up:
"Severely injured and unconscious, one rib broken, massive blood loss, signs of shock."
Kuan Yu gave Su Yan a glance, said nothing more.
He waved his hand.
In no time, the stretcher and accompanying doctors all filed into the cave.
Huo You was taken away.
Su Yan was taken too.
Of course, she went willingly.
When people from the Military Academy arrived after receiving the emergency distress signal,
they found that aside from the unconscious Li Ya, there was no one else in the cave.
The Su Yan who had sent the distress signal had vanished.
······
On the other side.
The already evacuated Huo You was brought onto a black Flying Ship.
After five hours of emergency treatment,
he was out of danger.
The main issue had been the massive blood loss.
Su Yan held that stone in her hand.
Under the lights, the stone shimmered with a silvery glow.
The room Huo You lay in was fully transparent—if there was any sign of him waking up or his condition worsening,
the people outside would notice within minutes.
Su Yan sat on the chair.
She didn’t know when Kuan Yu had walked over.
