Chapter 908 - Chapter 908 Chapter 907 Hard Work
Chapter 908: Chapter 907: Hard Work Chapter 908: Chapter 907: Hard Work The doctor wanted to say that the injury had been neglected for quite some time, and the impact had been severe; with no rest, there could be lasting after-effects. But he was abruptly cut off midway through his warning by Huo Beijiang.
“The day after tomorrow is my mother’s funeral, and as her son, I still have a tough battle to fight.” He had cast a long line and was just waiting to reel it in the day after tomorrow!
The word was out, and he had calculated that Leng Peixi wouldn’t be able to swallow her pride. She would definitely come to the funeral. Perfect timing, in the ensuing chaos, Leng Peixi could just join my mother in her burial at the funeral!
Huo Beijiang thought this, a bloodthirsty glint surfacing in his deep, dark pupils, as if he could already visualize the blood-drenched funeral.
This man, at his very core, was rebellious and untamed; what others wouldn’t dare consider, he found fitting to his tastes.
Inside the emergency room, everyone’s breath hitched, and a silence fell, with everyone involuntary taking more cautious breaths.
A funeral? A battle to fight?
What… what does that mean?
Lei Hao had just been thinking of slicing Bastard Huo into a thousand pieces! But now, seeing him, a flicker of sympathy emerged, and he almost wished he could stand up and apologize. If he had known earlier… if it had been like this… then… he wouldn’t have beaten him up.
Damn it!
Lei Hao suddenly realized it was he who had been beaten up. He had been tricked by Bastard Huo; why should he feel guilty?
Ge Jincheng was stunned as he watched Huo Beijiang, unable to comprehend how he could seem so unaffected, participating in the drills and speaking so lightly. Could it be… Could it be that he was accustomed to holding funerals?
Startled by his own sudden thought, Ge Jincheng hurriedly apologized to Elder Leader Huo and Huo Dongfeng. It was inappropriate, far too inappropriate of him to think like that! How could he entertain such thoughts!
He would be ashamed to face Elder Leader Huo from now on.
After all, Elder Leader Huo had been incredibly kind to him back in the day; his very life had been saved by Elder Leader Huo. When Ge Jincheng had joined the army, he had even served as a bodyguard for Elder Leader Huo for some time. It was also for this reason, though he was furious with Huo Beijiang, that despite cursing, he took no real action.
“Beijiang…” Ge Jincheng’s eyes brimmed with tears, “you’ve had it hard!”
Huo Beijiang furrowed his brows, loathing the sympathy others offered him.
Xi Liqun saw through his thoughts, patted Ge Jincheng on the shoulder, and then said, “Beijiang, you have a month’s leave. Rest well, and only come back after you’ve sorted everything out at home.”
“Thank you, General Xie.” Huo Beijiang’s lips curved slightly.
The doctor didn’t dare mention that the injury on his back had been neglected for too long anymore. He personally accompanied Huo Beijiang to the examination. When they returned from the check-up, the group had moved from the emergency room to the outside corridor. Ge Jincheng and Lei Hao had left, but two uninvited guests had arrived.
Tu Lou paced back and forth in the hallway. His eyes lit up when he saw Huo Beijiang and hurried over with concern, “Beijiang, how are you? I heard you were seriously injured? Do you need to be hospitalized?”
Tu Cheng, sitting in a chair, felt it was simply embarrassing; too pointless to even give his naive sweet younger brother a glance.
