After dinner and before Xia Ju left, Du Yue could not help but remind her, “There are so many people in this small courtyard. I wonder what their purpose is. Let’s try not to meet them and avoid them if we can. If we have nothing to do, just stay in the room and watch shows. We shouldn’t go out.”

Xia Ju nodded heavily and pointed at her backpack that was filled with snacks. “Don’t worry. With these, I’m willing to stay in my room for half a month!”

With that, she pushed open the door and prepared to leave.

However, just as she took a step forward, she suddenly stopped. Seeing Xia Ju stop moving, Du Yue was a little puzzled. “Why aren’t you leaving?”

Xia Ju stepped aside. “Someone’s here.”

“Someone’s here? Who is it?”

Du Yue said as she stood up and walked toward the door.

Just as she reached the door, she saw Xia Zhixing standing outside. What was she doing here? Du Yue was a little confused, but her expression remained normal. “You’re looking for me?”

Xia Zhixing smiled. “We didn’t have time to greet each other when we met on the road. I didn’t know if we could meet again, but now that we have, I came to thank you.”

“Thank me?”

“Yes, thank you.” Xia Zhixing said and bowed to Du Yue. “Thank you.”

Hearing Xia Zhixing’s sincere tone, Du Yue’s face remained calm, and her tone was indifferent. “I don’t remember what I’ve done to help you. You don’t have to thank me.”

Xia Zhixing stood up slowly. “It doesn’t matter if you remember or not. I just want to say thank you.

“I won’t disturb you again in the future. You guys can rest. Sorry for disturbing you.” After saying that, Xia Zhixing did not give Du Yue a chance to speak. She turned around and left.

Looking at Xia Zhixing’s back, Xia Ju stole a curious glance at Du Yue and He Xing. However, she only took a glance at them before looking away. “I’ll go back first. You guys should rest early too.” Xia Ju walked out of the door after saying that. Before she left, she even closed the door for them.

Du Yue’s face turned serious because of Xia Zhixing’s sudden visit. However, when she saw Xia Ju’s series of actions, she could not help but laugh out loud. Xia Ju was really interesting. She was very curious about unimportant things, but she did not ask about things that normal people would be curious about.

Du Yue walked to the bed and sat down. She said to He Xing, “It seems that she’s indeed here for us.”

He Xing nodded slowly and looked puzzled. “But why is she so sure that you and I did it?”

Xia Zhixing thanked Du Yue because she wanted to thank them for dealing with the celestial lord. However, they did not meet Xia Zhixing at that time, and they did not see each other again after that. How did Xia Zhixing know that it was them? Even Du Yue was curious, let alone He Xing.

Du Yue did not do anything for the entire afternoon. She only allowed herself to recall what had happened before. Unfortunately, Du Yue could not come up with a reason even after thinking for the entire afternoon. It was only when Xia Ju came knocking on the door that Du Yue’s thoughts were interrupted.

Du Yue sighed and decided not to think about it anymore. “Forget it. My head hurts from thinking about it. Anyway, as long as we don’t admit it, it’s useless even if she thinks we did it. Judging from her intentions, she probably doesn’t have any ill intentions and just came over to thank us. Let’s leave tomorrow morning. The fourth base is so big. We won’t meet again.”

He Xing nodded. “Yeah.”

The night passed quickly. The next morning, the three of them went out with their backpacks after breakfast. Just as they reached the entrance, they bumped into the young man who was stumbling into the courtyard. His face was paler than yesterday, and the smell of blood on his body was more obvious. Xia Ju stared at him for a moment before saying, “If you don’t want to die young, you should rest at home now.”

When she said this, Xia Ju’s tone was very calm, as if it was just an unintentional reminder. However, after interacting with Xia Ju for some time, Du Yue could vaguely hear the anger hidden in Xia Ju’s calm tone.

Of course, as a doctor, she would be angry when she saw someone not taking care of their body and allowing their injuries to become more and more serious! It was obvious that the young man did not expect Xia Ju to suddenly say such a thing to him. He looked at Xia Ju in surprise, and his pale face turned a little red. “Okay… Alright. Thank you…”

Xia Ju’s gaze swept across his face, and there was no emotion in her eyes. “Don’t misunderstand. I’m not concerned about you. It’s just an occupational

disease..”
