Chaoyang and Peak were the two most legendary superfunction squads in the Southwest Base. No one hadn't heard of them, but only people from the various superfunction squads and the military could recognize them right away. This was especially so for the two captains. Although there were countless stories of their heroic deeds, not many people knew them, and it was even more unlikely for these parasites from Section A to recognize them.
Having realized that the two of them were probably the captains of Chaoyang and Peak, even the arrogant and unreasonable Mrs. Chen felt a little uneasy. When Yun Che merely shot them a cold glance when walking past them, Mrs. Chen and her daughter-in-law shuddered and felt as if they had been bitten by a poisonous snake. Xing Feng, on the other hand, didn't even look at them.
"Captain Xing, Captain Yun, you're finally here."
"Che…"
"Brother, I protect Sister."
Seeing them approaching, people from the hospital and the kindergarten went forward to greet them. With tears in her eyes, Yun Yao broke away from Gu Mingxuan and threw herself into Yun Che's arms. Yun Cheng also ran over happily, asking for praises while holding his sister with one hand. Yun Che looked at his younger brother with approval before throwing a worried glance at the operating room, "How's Chenchen?"
"We haven't gone in, they should be bandaging him now."
Gu Mingxuan felt a little ashamed that he had only thought of Chenchen now, but Yun Che didn't blame him. He had seen the situation outside, but…
"Don't cry, Sis. I'll go in and have a look."
Even though these people ought to be taught a lesson, nothing was more important than his little nephew now. Everything else could be dealt with another day.
"Okay…Chenchen…"
Yun Yao obediently withdrew from his arms, wiping her tears and choking with sobs. Before she could finish speaking, Yun Che completed her sentence, "Chenchen will be okay. I will not let anything happen to him."
"Um."
Looking at him with tears in her eyes, Yun Yao finally felt a little at ease. Yun Che was the most trustworthy person to her, so she believed her son would be okay since her younger brother said so. This brother of hers had never let her down.
"Don't cry, or you won't look pretty anymore."
After handing her a handkerchief, Yun Che said to his younger brother, "Well done, Cheng. Sis is the person dearest to us, so you must continue to protect her, okay?"
"Yes, I will protect Sister, Brother, Hanhan, and Chenchen."
Yun Cheng nodded and said out the names of the people closest to him at one go before looking down sadly, "Chenchen got injured…"
He didn't protect Chenchen well, and he could still smell blood.
"Don't worry, it has nothing to do with you. Trust me, I will make whoever hurt Chenchen pay dearly for what they did."
Yun Che patted his younger brother on the shoulder as he glanced at the group of people with cold, bloodthirsty eyes, making them shudder. After hearing what he said, they started shaking all over.
Xing Feng roughly figured out what happened after seeing their reactions. He stepped forward and put his arm around Yun Che, "Let's go take a look at Chenchen first and leave the rest to later."
"Ok."
After that, the two of them walked to the operating room together. After pushing the door open effortlessly, Xing Feng paused and turned to look at Gu Mingxuan just before going in, "Get Xiu Jie to come in once he's here."
"Ok."
Gu Mingxuan nodded, and everyone watched the two enter the operating room. After a long while, Xiao Biting finally calmed down and asked, feeling slightly relieved, "They are…"
"Xing Feng and Yun Che, captains of Chaoyang and Peak. You proclaimed to be the upper class of Chaoyang, yet you don't even know our chief? By the way, the injured child is Captain Yun's beloved nephew, and they are Captain Yun's sister and younger brother."
After suffering in silence for so long, She Jiao took Yun Yao by the arm and said in a mocking manner. These people were snobs when they were merely family members of researchers, and they didn't even know who they had offended. Even though Chenchen had been with the kindergarten for a long time, neither Captain Yun nor Yun Yao had treated others harshly because of who they were. Instead, they often got Chenchen to bring things like tomatoes and candies to the kindergarten for everyone. In contrast, these people thought they were superior, and she had already dealt with numerous disputes when their children had only joined the kindergarten for a few days.
"…"
"Sis!"
Xiao Biting went weak in the knees and would have fallen on her butt if not for the help from the young man beside her. Even her makeup couldn't hide her pale face. She wasn't that stupid to not know that Xing Feng and Yun Che were the two people that they absolutely musn't provoke, but they had just done exactly that. Now that she thought about it, who else other than Yun Che could raise a child so well in doomsday?
"You… you set us up on purpose."
Having also realized the gravity, Mrs. Chen pointed at She Jiao with her trembling finger, heaving her chest and thinking that the latter must have set them up since she already knew who the fat kid was but didn't tell them.
"F…f*** you!"
The infuriated She Jiao cursed out for the first time in her life. Were they out of their minds? How could they even blame her? Did they expect her to tell every parent that Chenchen was Yun Che's nephew? They must be crazy!
"You…"
Mrs. Chen was so angry that she simply pointed at her and didn't know what else to say. Yun Yao was no longer crying. She took a glance at them before turning to look at She Jiao's face that had a few scratches on it, "Jiaojiao, your face…"
Yun Yao wanted to touch her face, but was afraid of hurting her. There was even blood on one of the scratches, and because the blood had already dried, it made her face look even scarier.
"I'm okay, I'll go to Xiu Jie later."
She Jiao waved her hand dismissively in front of those people who were looking at her with mockery and anger in their eyes. If not for the light superfunction possessor, she wouldn't have been able to put up with it. She knew how horrible her face was even without looking in the mirror. Every woman, whether married or unmarried, cared about their looks. This was so even during doomsday when they didn't have the luxury to doll themselves up everyday like before, and being disfigured was still something they couldn't accept.
"Ok."
Yun Yao nodded, feeling bad that she had probably gotten injured because of Chenchen. Gu Mingxuan next to her had a grim expression on his face. She Jiao was Wenqing's sister-in-law, and both her husband and brother were also in the squad. They would definitely fight it out with those people if they saw the scratches on her face. Not only did She Jiao's husband love her, Wenqing also respected her very much.
Inside the operating room.
"Chenchen…"
Yun Che saw Chenchen lying on the bed the moment he entered the operating room. Zhan Tianlong had asked two nurses to help him clean the blood on his face, but the blood on his clothes that couldn't be removed had dried up and turned black. His usual shiny eyes were swollen from crying. Hearing his uncle's voice, Chenchen pursed his lips, "Boohoo…Uncle, I'm in pain…"
The little guy's voice was already hoarse. Yun Che tensed up and quickly went over to hold his hand, "Good boy, don't cry, Uncle's here."
His head had been cleaned by Zhan Tianlong. Looking at the flesh on the ten-centimeter wound that still had blood oozing out, Yun Che felt so upset that he even teared up as he thought of the scene before his death in his previous life. Yun Che immediately took out a bottle of undiluted spring water out of thin air and wanted to give it to Chenchen, but his hand was shaking uncontrollably.
"Let me do it."
Xing Feng reached out to take the bottle from him. After thinking for a moment, he said to Chenchen, "You're a good boy, Chenchen. Get me an empty bottle from your Space."
Chenchen usually kept his own baby bottles. As the adults were worried that he would go hungry, they would fill a few bottles of milk for him every morning to keep in the Space so that he could have them whenever he was hungry.
"Oh…"
With his lips pursed, Chenchen answered in a daze before moving his right hand, and a clean empty baby bottle appeared on the operating bed. Xing Feng took the baby bottle and poured the water into it before giving it to him, "Drink this and you won't feel the pain anymore."
"Oh…"
The teary Chenchen opened his mouth and started sucking the spring water in the bottle.
"The two of you can leave us, Captain Yun and I will be here."
After dismissing the two nurses, Xing Feng looked at the wound on his forehead, feeling a little uneasily. It was a deep open flesh wound, which explained why Zhan Tianlong took so long to clean it and had yet to stitch it up for him.
"I'm going to give him anesthetic to stitch up the wound, look."
Seeing that the wound had actually slowly stopped bleeding, Zhan Tianlong knew that it had to be the water that Yun Che took out. However, he wasn't really surprised as Yun Che had already taken out many magical stuff previously. Chenchen was his top concern now, and he wanted to stitch up his wound as soon as possible.
"Let me take a look first."
After forcing himself to calm down, Yun Che tried to let go of Chenchen's hand, but the latter held on to him tightly. Yun Che felt his heart ache again, "Chenchen, be good and hold on to Uncle Xing? Let Uncle look at the wound on your forehead."
"Woo…"
The usually well-behaved Chenchen was pursing his lips even with a pacifier in his mouth, and tears were rolling down his cheek. Seeing this, Yun Che quickly said, "Alright, don't hold Uncle Xing then, just hold on to me. Don't cry anymore, it pains me to see you cry."
Compared to his usual wailing, Yun Che realized that his silent sobs pained him even more.
"Uncle…"
With a pacifier in his mouth, Chenchen called out to him in a daze, his head heavy. Probably due to the spring water, his wound was no longer bleeding. After gently closing his eyes, he was still sucking the remaining spring water in the baby bottle. Just when Zhan Tianlong was about to remind Yun Che that the wound could get infected if they left it exposed, Yun Che had already reached out to touch Chenchen's head.
After Yun Che rubbed the area around the wound with his fingers, a faint light lingered around his fingers. As his fingers touched the wound, the open flesh wound actually healed. Zhan Tianlong and Xing Feng widened their eyes in disbelief. It wasn't because they hadn't seen something so miraculous. Their squad members usually suffered much more serious injuries, and Xiu Jie could heal them with his superfunction. The thing was, Yun Che wasn't a light superfunction possessor, so how did he heal the wound?
