Chapter 141: His Chest Has Stopped Hurting
Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_
Lin Qiao felt that Qiu Lili wouldn’t show up soon, so she turned to look at the others. Lin Wenwen, Lin Hao, Mrs. Lin, Cheng w.a.n.gxue, Lin Xiaolu and the other few had surrounded Lin Feng, who was lying on the ground.
Earlier on, she paid all her attention to Lin Feng’s condition, but didn’t have the time to look at the others carefully. Now, she gave them a closer look and found that each of them had changed a lot, especially Xiaolu.
In Lin Qiao’s memories, Xiaolu was a little baby up to her knees, who had just learned to walk and was still learning how to speak. But now, she could reach Lin Qiao’s waist, and her tiny and chubby arms and legs had all become slender.
She was wearing a purple dress and a white coat. Her chubby face had become delicate and adorable, and her eyes were bright and looked canny.
She was squatting by Lin Feng’s legs and leaning against her grandmother, but from time to time, she had been turning to Lin Qiao to look at her confusedly and curiously.
Lin Wenwen looked much more mature than before. Her pretty face now wore a look of determination. However, Lin Qiao could tell that she was still nice and gentle. As long as her bottom-line wasn’t touched, she would continue to be like a fair lady.
Lin Hao had turned into a capable young man from an impatient boy. His good-looking face was now added with a manly presence, that made him look more mature than before.
Lin Qiao’s younger brother and little sister were both kind and mild, but once they got angry, they would become scary. Not even Lin Qiao dared to p.i.s.s them off.
Lin Qiao and all her siblings had inherited the good genes of their parents. Each of them had a beautiful face; even Lin Feng, who was already thirty-five years old, looked handsome and hearty.
Among all of Lin Qiao’s family members, the one who changed the least was her mother. Mrs. Lin was nearly sixty years old, but still looked energetic. Only her vibe had changed a little.
She now looked much stronger than before. As always, she had been quietly standing behind her children to support them. Even though her children had all grown up, she still looked at them as children who needed caring.
It seemed that the post-apocalyptic world had changed everyone quite a lot. Even Lin Wenwen and Lin Hao, who used to be harmless, now looked a little aggressive. Lin Qiao’s sister-in-law, Cheng w.a.n.gxue, still had a hot temper. As same as the old time, she could suffer losses quite easily.
Lin Qiao carefully observed her family, and found that except for the injured Lin Feng, the others were all healthy. It seemed that her big brother had been protecting them quite well.
She felt lucky for coming back. If she spent an extra couple of days on her journey, she couldn’t imagine how bad the consequences would have been.
Thinking that Lin Feng’s energy nucleus might be damaged because of the internal injuries he had suffered, Lin Qiao raised a strong intention of killing toward Yang Jianhua.
Maybe because her intention of killing was too obvious, Lin Hao, Lin Wenwen, Yuan Tianxing and the five soldiers suddenly turned to look at her.
In their eyes, Lin Qiao was a skinny, medium height man, face covered in scars, wearing a pair of sungla.s.ses, looking exactly like a gangster. Back in the old world, all the kids would be freaked out by a man like that, and even adults would avoid him.
However, the Lin Family people now felt that the sungla.s.ses looked better than her pair of black zombie eyes.
At that moment, Lin Feng’s chest s.h.i.+vered, then he gave a cough.
“Em-hem… em-hem… hem…”
Hearing his voice, the others immediately turned their heads back and forgot about Lin Qiao temporarily.
“Brother! You’re awake!” Lin Wenwen said to Lin Feng with surprise. Seeing Lin Feng slowly opening his eyes, Lin Hao reached out a hand to feel his pulse, then nodded and sighed in relief, “He has woken up. That means he’s healing. He’ll recover soon if he gets enough rest. But, because of our brother’s current condition, we can’t keep running now.”
Lin Feng opened his eyes to look at the others and muttered to ask, “What…What happened to me? Did I pa.s.s out?”
The others nodded in response.
“You were holding off Yang Jianhua’s attack, and you vomited blood. Don’t you remember that?” Said Cheng w.a.n.gxue.
“Ah, I remembered. Where’s Yang Jianhua then? Are you all good?” Lin Feng knitted his brows to think for a moment, then recalled what happened earlier and hurriedly asked them if they were fine.
He nervously looked at the others. After finding out that they were all beside him and perfectly unharmed, he sighed in relief. Then, he soon discovered the ones who had arrived later.
“Eh? Tianxing! Why are you here? And Qingying…and Du Yuanxing? How did you guys…” Lin Feng greeted those people with surprise and joy.
“Daddy! Daddy! How do you feel? Are you in any pain?” Lin Xiaolu had stopped looking at Lin Qiao with curiosity, but fixed her eyes on her dad with worry. Once she said that, the others too began asking about Lin Feng’s situation.
“Yeah, Lin Feng, how do you feel now?” Asked Mrs. Lin nervously.
“Lin Feng, is your chest still aching? Wasn’t your chest injured before? How do you feel now?” Cheng w.a.n.gxue asked.
Lin Hao looked at Lin Feng, waiting for him to answer the questions. Being reminded by them, Lin Feng now started paying attention to his body. He took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly.
After that, he lowered his head in confusion to check his chest, then raised a hand to press on his chest which was injured before. And then, he looked at the others bewilderedly.
“Why is… I think my chest has… stopped hurting. The dull pain caused by broken lungs, and the suffocating feeling caused by the blood stasis, are both gone. I’m breathing smoothly now. Before, I couldn’t even take deep breath.” said Lin Feng.
After saying that, he looked at his family with confusion and continued, “Did you give me some magical drug? Or, why is my injury healed so quickly?”
Lin Hao and Lin Wenwen shook their heads together to let Lin Feng knew that they didn’t do anything to heal him.
“It’s him who saved you, Great Captain!” At that moment, Du Yuanxing suddenly came to Lin Feng, then leaned his head forward from above Lin Hao’s head and said delightedly.
Seeing that Lin Feng’s condition had gotten better, he became elated. Earlier on, he felt wronged as the others didn’t believe his words. But now, that feeling was gone. He was even a little proud at the moment.
