BXBX NOVEL Chapter 54 - 54: Infected
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Lin Sijia was detained in the villa by Zhang Yi and the others. She used the excuse of going to the toilet to send a message to Ye Xingchen on her phone.
“Zhang Yi was stabbed with a knife and called me over to bandage it.”
Lin Sijia thought about it again and again. It didn’t seem right for her to rashly ask Ye Xingchen to save her. After all, Ye Xingchen had said before that he could help her, but she had to be useful to him.
“Yes… Is there anything you need me to do?”
Lin Sijia naturally knew that Zhang Yi was eyeing Ye Xingchen’s home covetously. She had also conveyed what Zhang Yi had said in the group to Ye Xingchen previously.
Zhang Yi had started eating, and it was time for Ye Xingchen to have lunch too. Just as he was about to make some soup for a change, Lin Sijia’s message popped up on his phone.
Ye Xingchen knew that Lin Sijia had been called to Zhang Yi’s residence through the surveillance cameras. However, he did not expect Lin Sijia to take the initiative to look for him at this time… To get assigned tasks?
Of course, Ye Xingchen would not disregard Lin Sijia’s safety. After all, there was only one doctor nearby. He might be able to use her sometime.
Zhang Yi’s actions were undoubtedly because he was afraid. That was why he forcefully put Lin Sijia under house arrest. Although Lin Sijia didn’t say it, Ye Xingchen could roughly guess after seeing the news. Perhaps his words had an effect.
“Not yet. Be careful over there. Pay attention to his every move and tell me. Oh right, remember to delete the chat history.”
Lin Sijia was a doctor, so it might be more comfortable for her to be tied to Zhang Yi than to be at home. At least Zhang Yi needed her, so he definitely wouldn’t deprive her of food.
Ye Xingchen thought of everything. He even wanted Lin Sijia to stay at Zhang Yi’s house for a while longer, so she would consume a lot of his resources, but he didn’t know that Lin Sijia didn’t dare to eat at Zhang Yi’s house.
Compared to Ye Xingchen’s carefree attitude, Ma Chaowen and the rest were unusually depressed when they returned home.
It had been two days, but Ye Xingchen’s house could not be broken down no matter how hard they tried. In the beginning, they were filled with evil thoughts, but now, they were only filled with despair.
The antibiotics were gone, the anti-inflammatory drugs were gone, the heater was gone, and so much delicious food was gone. Their lives…It was almost gone.
The three of them sat on the sofa with their heads lowered with dull eyes. Sun Min paced around anxiously.
On the day when everyone attacked Ye Xingchen’s house, she finally spoke to her cousin.
But for some reason, Sun Min looked at her previously refined cousin and felt that he was even more terrifying than Ye Xingchen.
Zhang Yi looked at her as if he was looking at a dead person.
Sun Min played the emotional card, but in the end, Zhang Yi only asked someone to cut a few more pieces of meat for her.
“Sigh, let’s eat first.”
Sun Min waited for the power to turn on to cook the food. Even Zhang Yi did not have any medicine. It seemed that the three of them could only wait for death.
“All!”
When the power supply time was on, the lights in the room instantly lit up. Sun Min hurriedly turned on the induction cooker to cook the pieces of meat that Zhang Yi had sent her. Ma Chaowen’s cry from behind shocked her, and she almost dropped the meat to the ground.
“No, no, 1 don’t want to die!!”
The electricity came on, and the heater in the house also started working. The temperature more or less rose a little. Ma Chaowen, who was closest to the heater, suddenly felt an unbearable itch on his ankle.
The bandage on his ankle was originally frozen stiff, but now it showed signs of softening. It was itchy inside as if some liquid was flowing out.
Ma Chaowen gritted his teeth and tore open the half-soft gauze. He tore open the wound and even ripped the good skin beside it.
“How could this be, how could this be! 1 don’t want to die yet!”
Large patches of rotting flesh were stuck to the gauze. The wound had already started to fester, and a nauseating rancid smell rushed into his nose.
Ma Chaowen grimaced in pain and sat on the ground with tears streaming down his face.
“How… How did this happen?”
Zhang Peng looked at Ma Chaowen and was so scared that his face turned pale.
The temperature in the room slowly rose, and Liang Zhichao and Zhang Peng also gradually began to feel the itch in their wounds.
As soon as the three of them removed their bandages, a rotten smell spread throughout the room.
Liang Zhichao was dumbfounded. He held his wrist and stared blankly. Zhang Peng’s face turned pale.
Zhang Peng was the most seriously injured among the three. Ma Chaowen and Liang Zhichao only had their skin and flesh split open, but he was pierced by the arrow.
His eyes darkened, and he silently wrapped the gauze back. He turned his head and shouted at Sun Min. “Cousin, leave some food for me. I’ll be back later.”
He didn’t want to die, and he didn’t want to die in the hands of Ye Xingchen, the scum. If he died, wouldn’t Chen Rou’er fall into the hands of Ye Xingchen?!
No, he wouldn’t allow it!
Zhang Peng gritted his teeth and immediately wrapped his clothes tightly. He dragged a shovel, limping towards Ye Xingchen’s house.
Ye Xingchen was studying his lunch at this time. He learned from the recipe book and made a ginseng silky chicken soup, but he felt that it was still lacking in taste. He raised his hand and was considering whether to add some more seasoning when the alarm at home rang again.
“Who is it this time? How annoying. Don’t you need to eat lunch?”
Ye Xingchen frowned and looked at the screen. It was Zhang Peng.
Zhang Peng ran to the floor-to-ceiling glass that had been sandwiched between two layers of thick steel plates. He raised the shovel in his hand and began to smash the wall.
“Sigh, why bother?”
Ye Xingchen sighed and picked up the communication device to open a two-way call. “Sigh, why are you doing this?”
Zhang Peng’s futile roaring came from outside.
“At least we were both as unlucky before. We liked the same b*tch. Let me give you a few words of advice.”
“If you have the strength to smash my wall here, you might as well go back and lie at home and eat a few more mouthfuls of food. At least you can be a full-bellied ghost when you leave.”
“I see that your hand holding the shovel is shaking. You probably don’t have many days left to live. Sigh, if 1 were you, I wouldn’t have come here for nothing. If your blood circulation improves, you’ll die faster. Why don’t you take advantage of the few days left to do what you want to do?”
Zhang Peng’s face was full of tears. He was angry and afraid. Of course, he knew that if he was infected with tetanus and did not receive treatment, he would definitely die. He just refused to accept it.
However, Ye Xingchen’s words did remind him.
He didn’t have many days left to live. He might as well hurry up and do what he had always wanted to do. At least, he wouldn’t have lived his life in vain..
