Gu Mengmeng had some theoretical solutions.
But if you were to say practical solutions…..she only observed how Lea sewed up the wound on Sandy’s partner Adali before. But now, Lea’s not around and if she just leave the wound alone, Cole would definitely die.
With shaky hands, Gu Mengmeng tried to suppress the terror in her heart while using one hand to hold his flesh and the other hand to start sewing.
Maybe it was lucky that Cole was currently in a deeply unconscious state or else with Gu Mengmeng shaking thrice with every needle, Cole would definitely die of pain.
Although the process was pretty torturous, Gu Mengmeng finally held Cole’s wound in place. Then, she took some cooked beast skins and wrapped Cole up like a mummy.
After Gu Mengmeng finished treating Cole, she turned to look at Dylan whose mouth was agape, asking him, “What’s wrong?”
Dylan regained his composure abruptly and said, “The mighty messenger’s medical skills are truly miraculous. It just takes one’s breath away.”
Gu Mengmeng shook her hands and said with a tired tone, “Just drop all those flattering words, how’s my son?”
Dylan answered, “Little master does not have any external injuries. Servant checked his internal organs and there was no problem too. Being unconscious…..is probably because of the poison. But I’m afraid we’ve to wait until leader Cole wakes up to be able to know the exact identity of the poison.”
Gu Mengmeng nodded and carried Chixuan in her arms, saying, “Don’t go back and stay here for this period. I remember that I have an empty room beside mine. You can stay there for the time being to make it easier for you to handle any emergencies in time.”
“Yes,” Dylan replied respectfully before exiting the room.
Gu Mengmeng sat beside the window while carrying Chixuan and patted his back gently. “Xuan, Xuan……you’ve to be safe and sound, alright? You’ve to recover quickly so that we can find your other brothers together. Mother still wants to watch all of you grow up, evolve, mate and give birth to babies….”
Cole was unconscious for half a month.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw Gu Mengmeng carrying Chixuan while lying by his bed with a pair of soft hands on his wrist.
“Mighty messenger?” Cole moved slightly but the sharp pain in his stomach made him frown so he groaned.
Gu Mengmeng woke up from her sleep and sat up straight, staring at Cole. The two of them looked at each other for a while before they regained their composure. Gu Mengmeng stretched her hand out to touch Cole’s forehead and after ensuring that he was not having a fever anymore, she then heaved a sigh of relief and said, “You’re finally awake.”
“Mighty messenger…..” Cole wanted to say something but was interrupted by Gu Mengmeng.
“You’ve been unconscious for half a month and everyday, you could only rely on a little honey water to maintain your physical strength so you must be feeling very weak now. Although I have a lot of questions to ask you, there’s no need to rush things now. Lie down first and I’ll ask someone to bring in some food to fill your stomach. We can discuss the rest later.”
After Gu Mengmeng finished speaking, she placed Chixuan next to Cole and said, “Look after my son.”
Cole gave a gentle smile as he replied, “Alright.”
Gu Mengmeng turned away and walked out of the room. She asked Dylan to check Cole’s body and at the same time, instructed the guards on duty to prepare some light food and fruits.
Cole half-lied on the bed, patting Chixuan’s back gently. With a smile hanging on his face, he fixed his gaze on Gu Mengmeng’s back and muttered at a volume nobody could hear, “Is this the happiness he always have? It really makes one envious….”
