Chapter 174: Awake
Qin Hanmo’s eyes gleamed as he immediately spoke up, “Captain Gao, I’m afraid Captain Yun’s actions are somewhat inappropriate. The mission is everyone’s responsibility. Isn’t it wrong that he leaves ahead of us?”
Gao Yuan was already used to Qin Hanmo going against Yun Huan. He was too lazy to enlighten Qin Hanmo, so he ignored the meaning behind his words instead. “What’s inappropriate about that? If not for Yun Huan, we would not have survived even that. We’re just finishing up the last bit of work and have taken advantage of him already.”
With that, Gao Yuan no longer looked at Qin Hanmo, calling everyone to move the apparatus.
Lin Bai and the rest saw Gao Yuan’s methods. They locked eyes, revealing their admiration for each other.
Qin Hanmo was completely isolated now. Despite him being a space ability user, no one cared about him.
When Qin Yi woke up, she still felt the occasional pain in her head. She struggled to open her eyes, only to find herself at the gas station.
Yun Huan supported her, able to sense when Qin Yi woke up. He caressed Qin Yi’s forehead and felt her temperature, asking, “You’re awake, want some water?”
Qin Yi nodded her head with great difficulty, every action causing her pain. It seemed that her injury would take some time to recover.
“Of course, it’s bad, it will take you at least half a month to fully recover. Foolish woman! Seeing how you risked so much this time, you deserve it,” Xiao Lan rejoiced in her pain and laughed at her, but Qin Yi was still able to sense the worry behind its words.
When everything happened, Xiao Lan was still absorbing the energy from the crystal cores from the day before. Qin Yi had placed it in the mental space, telling the others that it was in the bag.
“I did not think that the ability zombies would appear so quickly. If I didn’t do what I did, we might have died,” Qin Yi argued, not regretting her actions at all.
Xiao Lan knew that but was annoyed and afraid. It grumbled and did not speak further.
Qin Yi licked her chapped lips. The low fever had dehydrated her. She opened her mouth to speak but no words came out. Fortunately, Yun Huan could read lips and knew what she had said.
He lowered his head and took out some water, opening the top and slowly feeding Qin Yi.
Qin Yi was not unreasonable; she was in real pain and every small action messed with her mind. After a few mouthfuls of water, Qin Yi felt much better.
She looked around, only to see that Gao Yuan and the others were not back. Aside from her and Yun Huan, only Qin Jiaojiao and Zheng Zhong were there, aside in one corner of the gas station.
What was with this awkward atmosphere?
Yun Huan turned around and blocked Qin Yi, his frown deepening, “What’s the point of looking at such a woman? Don’t dirty your eyes.”
His words caused Qin Yi to choke on her water and start coughing, causing bursts of pain to rush up her head once again.
“Why are you so impatient?” Yun Huan berated her; his tone was filled with concern despite his harsh words. At the same time, he massaged Qin Yi’s temples.
The throbbing pain eased up.
Qin Yi opened her mouth to speak again, “I know Brother Yuan, but I detest her in the beginning.”
The annoyed look in Yun Huan’s eyes lessened. He did not want his brother to talk to such a dirty woman. Upon thinking about what he had seen when he had returned, Yun Huan’s heart was filled with hate and disgust.
She was clearly a Qin member of the capital, but she actually conducted herself in this manner? Yun Huan truly felt sorry for her father.
The matter started when Yun Huan arrived at the gas station.
