Even their names were too different.
Hu Daâs original name was Jiang Hu, and he was the leader of the Tiger Mercenary Group and everyone called him Hu Da.
The young man was called Jiang Yifan.
When asked about this, Hu Da smiled honestly and said, âI resemble my father and Yifan looked like my mother.â
Xia Muqing smiled. Their relationship was really good.
After returning to the territory of the Tiger Mercenary Group, it was unexpectedly luxurious. It wasnât extravagant, but rather it had a refined and gracious style.
A huge courtyard with a small bridge and flowing water. It looked very elegant.
Hu Da explained, âOur Tiger Mercenary Group was also a first-rate mercenary group in the Sunset Mountains back then. Itâs a pity that we were targeted by that group of thieves from the Xiao family. I reckon that before long, this residence will be stolenâ¦â
He sounded proud and helpless at the same time.
Jiang Yifanâs eyes were also filled with pain. This residence was where he had grown up.
Hu Da wiped his face and said, âLetâs not talk about that. Miss Xia, please.â
He invited Xia Muqing into the residence respectfully.
In the living room, Xia Muqing noticed the anxiety in Hu Daâs eyes. She didnât waste any more time talking and said, âLetâs find a room. Iâll check the injury first.â
Hu Da grunted and hastily brought them to Jiang Yifanâs room.
Jiang Yifan chased Hu Da out with the excuse that he needed silence, leaving only Xia Muqing and him in the room.
Xia Muqing didnât say anything and simply rolled up his pants.
Shocking wounds were revealed. It consisted of a swollen knee, a twisted calf, and a bone poking slightly out. The injuries were far more serious than she had imagined.
Jiang Yifan quipped, âSister Xia, my injuries are a little scary. It doesnât matter if it canât be cured. My brother is just too worried about me.â
Xia Muqing touched his swollen knee which was filled with pus and blood. She frowned and asked, âWhy didnât you squeeze the pus out?â
Even if those physicians couldnât cure him, they shouldnât leave these wounds untended.
Jiang Yifan glanced at Jiang Hu, who was waiting outside, and said calmly, âMy leg could have healed, but those people are afraid of the Xiao familyâs power. Why could they be willing to treat me? Only a silly fool like my brother has believed in them saying that my injuries canât be treated. He brought me to seek different physicians.â
He knew very well what was going on. He didnât say a word because he didnât want to add to his brotherâs guilt.
Xia Muqing was stunned. This young man was really so considerate and kind that her heart ached for him.
She hit the young manâs head and gazed at the confusion in his round eyes. Only then did she feel that he looked like a teenager.
âWhy is a child like you so pessimistic? Who says I canât cure you? With me around, your leg canât be ruined even if you want to.â
âIâll definitely give you a pair of healthy legs.â
When her voice entered Jiang Yifanâs ears, he felt like he was in a trance. The flames in his heart, which had long since been extinguished, suddenly began to burn again.
Could there really be hope for him?
At this moment, all the calmness and indifference shattered as the indignation buried deep in his heart surged.
Initially, he was also in pain and anger. However, for the sake of his family, he pretended not to care. After a long time, he stopped caring. Only now did he realize that he was wrong; he had actually never given up..
Xia Muqing stroked his hair and said, âDonât worry, leave it to me.â
Jiang Yifan nodded solemnly.
He didnât just entrust his legs to her, but his life as well. If he couldnât get his legs to heal this time, he probably wouldnât survive.
Xia Muqing took out a dagger and used fire to burn and disinfect it. She said, âI need to expel the pus and blood from your muscles. Itâs a little painful. Bear with it.â
With that, she used the dagger to slice the young manâs entire knee. He frowned for a moment, but he still endured the pain in his leg.
