Chapter 355: Chapter 122: Xu Xingguang, It Hurts So Much
If the title of Divine Medicine and Agriculture Star were gone, what would Xu Xingguang be? Could she still receive Jin Yunhai’s protection? Could she still be a friend of the Xiahou Family?
She could not.
Once Huo Wen’an dies, Xu Xingguang will be isolated and helpless again, and at that time he can easily manipulate her with just a flick of his fingers.
Thinking of this, Jiang Heng felt a bit more joyful.
It’s alright, just wait for Huo Wen’an to die, and his opportunity will come.
Among the Huo Family standing in the hospital lobby, several people share Jiang Heng’s wish—
Wishing for Huo Wen’an to die.
Once Huo Wen’an is dead, the position of Young Helmsman will be vacant.
With the position vacant, they’ll have a chance.
Divine Concealment Island’s Island Master, Helmsman of the Huo Family, the head of the financial noble family, who wouldn’t be envious of that position?
Huo Wen’an, this short-lived ghost, has been in the Young Helmsman position for several years, and it’s about time he steps down and gives them the opportunity.

In the emergency room.
Huo Wen’an was kneeling motionlessly on the cement floor behind the iron window, forcibly breaking the chains binding his limbs from the four bedposts.
The chains dragged long blood marks beneath him, and his body, his face, were all covered in blood marks he scratched out with his own hands. ƒreewebɳovel.com
The silk robe he wore was already tattered, blood and sweat mixing with the silk fabric, making the light material heavy.
The bloodied man knelt on the ground, looking like a fierce ghost that fought its way out of hell’s battlefield, even the afternoon sunlight dared only linger by his knees, not daring to approach him.
Though the human world is vibrant, he remains solitary and cold. freёwebnovel.com
Ye Mingluo crouched in the corner with red eyes, unable to bear looking at Huo Wen’an any longer.
Upon hearing the door open, Ye Mingluo suddenly looked up.
It was at that moment that the Luo Fei Ring on Huo Wen’an’s middle finger suddenly emitted a blue glow. Huo Wen’an stared at that blue light, his numb and clouded mind gradually becoming clear.
Seeing Xu Xingguang’s face clearly, Ye Mingluo suddenly crawled up from the corner, grasping Xu Xingguang’s wrist tightly, his voice choked as he pleaded with her: "Master, please help him."
Xu Xingguang saw bite marks from sharp teeth on Ye Mingluo’s tiger’s mouth, and his arms were red and swollen from being hit by chains.
He did everything he could.
Ye Mingluo paid no mind to his own injuries, saying tearfully, "A Zui is in such agony, biting everything, hitting everything, until he wouldn’t even spare himself."
"Master, if he frequently suffers like this in the future, then could you just give him a relief, alright?"
Ye Mingluo is a doctor, yet he implores Xu Xingguang to give Huo Wen’an a relief.
"Ye Mingluo, you’ve done well." Xu Xingguang patted Ye Mingluo’s hand, "Endure it this time, and he won’t suffer this pain again."
Upon hearing this, Ye Mingluo’s spirit on the brink of collapse eased slightly.
He looked at the man kneeling on the ground, his expression numb, greatly worried whether Huo Wen’an could survive. He told Xu Xingguang, "He’s been kneeling like this for almost half an hour already, and his heartbeat is getting weaker."
"Master, please save him."
Xu Xingguang replied, "This is a pain he must endure himself, I can’t help him."
She asked Ye Mingluo, "When did the drug effects start?"
Ye Mingluo said, "Last night at seven, right during dinner time."
Xu Xingguang then said, "He has to hold on for another day."
"Hold on for another day?" Ye Mingluo was stunned, "Is A Zui even capable of holding on like this?"
"It depends on his will to survive. Ye Mingluo, you go out first, I’ll take care of him here."
"What are you going to do?" Ye Mingluo was worried.
Xu Xingguang said, "I’m staying with him."
Ye Mingluo looked at Xu Xingguang’s calm expression, feeling uneasy, "How are you staying?"
Xu Xingguang smiled lightly, took off her shawl, removed her high-heeled shoes, and tied her long hair with a black hair tie. She gazed at Huo Wen’an’s back and said, "If he wants to go mad, I’ll go mad with him. If he suffers, I’ll suffer with him."
Finally, Ye Mingluo went out.
At the moment Ye Mingluo stepped out, Xu Xingguang, who had been stagnant and lifeless, walked slowly towards Huo Wen’an, crouching before him, extending her arms, and gently embracing Huo Wen’an’s bloody body.
"Brother A Zui, I’ll stay with you, okay?"
After a moment, Huo Wen’an struggled to lift his head, his eyes dull as he looked at Xu Xingguang, his voice hoarse as he asked, "Xu Xingguang, am I very ugly?"
Xu Xingguang cradled Huo Wen’an’s head, gently kissed his only intact eye, and said, "Ugly beyond words."
Upon hearing this answer, Huo Wen’an suddenly parted his blood-scented lips, somewhat roughly kissing Xu Xingguang.
His numb spirit felt neither the pleasure nor enjoyment that a kiss brings, he just tirelessly kissed Xu Xingguang, only stopping once he couldn’t find a better way to kiss.
Holding Xu Xingguang’s waist tightly, Huo Wen’an buried his head in Xu Xingguang’s neck, suddenly crying very softly, "Xu Xingguang, I am in so much pain."
