After hearing Xiao Lei’s reassurance, Song Fan finally relaxed. Her nerves had been stretched to the limit, relying on her sixth sense to dodge bullets.
However, this approach was highly exhausting, and she now felt an intense headache. She sat on the sofa trying to control herself.
If only she had a golden needle on hand, she could administer a few self-relieving stitches.
Gu Chen noticed her pain. Despite Song Fan not displaying much discomfort, he had been tormented by headaches for so long, so he knew the extent of her pain.
He walked over to support Song Fan’s shoulder and guided her to sit down. Song Fan, currently preoccupied, wasn’t sure what Gu Chen was up to but obediently lay down.
Gu Chen placed his hands on her, massaging her acupoints one by one.
Song Fan felt significant relief from her headache and chuckled, “I never expected you to have this skill.”
“I’ve become a doctor through long-term suffering. After enduring headaches for so long, there had to be a way to alleviate them,” Gu Chen replied.
“Your pain isn’t something massage can alleviate. It must be challenging enduring it for such a long time, right?”
“I’ve grown accustomed to it. I just hope it won’t hurt anymore in the future.”
Gu Chen continued massaging Song Fan, and the two engaged in a warm and serene conversation.
Xiao Lei and Xia Rui couldn’t believe their eyes. Gu Chen, giving someone a massage, and in such a gentle manner, was beyond their expectations.
If someone had mentioned this before today, they wouldn’t have believed it. Gu Chen was like icy cold mountain ice. He had never shown such tenderness before.
But now, this scene was unfolding right before their eyes, and with just a glance, both of them understood the meaning in each other’s eyes. Gu Chen was genuinely moved.
Upon reflection, it was understandable. Song Fan was unlike any other woman they had encountered.
People of their class had seen countless beauties, and various personalities were nothing out of the ordinary for them. They had encountered those who didn’t hide their intentions.
However, someone as formidable as Song Fan was the first. She excelled not only in physical prowess but also in skills like marksmanship, chess, and even medical arts. Earlier, Su Yang mentioned she could even blend fragrances.
It seemed there was nothing in the world that she couldn’t do, and her personality was incredibly carefree as if she didn’t care about anything.
For her, worldly matters were inconsequential, embodying a carefree demeanor, like the wind. Even if Gu Chen didn’t like her, Xiao Lei and Xia Rui would still become her friends. They were captivated by her charm.
At this moment, Su Yang was brought back. The people who went to get him were cautious as they carried him back and laid him on the sofa.
Song Fan quickly sat up to check his condition. Thanks to the medication, he was overall in good condition, with no life-threatening issues.
However, the bullets were still in his body and needed to be removed promptly. Song Fan asked, “Can the ship’s doctor remove the bullets here?”
Xiao Lei quickly called the doctor, who appeared surprisingly composed. After disinfecting, the doctor began the procedure. Song Fan was somewhat impressed.
The doctor on the cruise swiftly completed the surgery, saying, “This patient’s physical condition is excellent. If I hadn’t seen the gunshot wound on his back, I would have thought he was just asleep.”
After he left, Gu Chen looked at Song Fan. “Your pill is quite effective; Su Yang should be fine now.”
“Of course, I worked hard to make that. It contains numerous rare herbs. When he wakes up, he owes me money,” Song Fan joked.
Gu Chen nodded. “I’ll take care of it. Name your price; I’ll pay you.”
“I was just kidding. Besides, these things are not as precious as Tango Fruit.”
Then she widened her eyes, realizing she had forgotten to bring Tango Fruit when she fled. The fruit was still in the small refrigerator in the cabin.
Gu Chen comforted her, “I’ll send someone to get it. It should be fine. Those people don’t know the value of that thing.”
Song Fan could only console herself in this way. She then sat on the sofa anxiously waiting.
The person sent to retrieve it returned quickly, but the box was only half intact. The box had been riddled with bullets, and the Tango Fruit inside had turned into mush, with only a few intact ones.
Song Fan gritted her teeth at the sight of the ruined Tango Fruit. A murderous aura emanated from her. “Today, I must make these people pay!”
Upon seeing Song Fan like this, Xia Rui felt a bit scared, sensing that she might resort to extreme measures. The fruit meant a lot to her..
