Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

Chapter 1265: Chapter 1265: Major Misunderstanding

"Bring them to their rooms to rest and send some food along, treat the two doctors well," Ni Ji ordered. Yuan Yu had been exhausted from gathering herbs yesterday, and Xu Qinglang had been continuously wiping Nilo’s body, saying it was physical cooling, which made Ni Ji feel that the two doctors were indeed doing their utmost for his father’s health.

Xu Qinglang and Yuan Yu were taken to their room, and just as Xu Qinglang was about to speak, he heard the guards outside talking.

"The ginseng was really found by that blind man?"

"Absolutely, everyone is talking about it, saying that blind man’s luck is simply extraordinary."

Upon hearing everyone talking about the blind man, Xu Qinglang suddenly thought of Tang Jun.

He looked incredulously at Yuan Yu beside him and asked, "Was it really him who found it?"

"Yes." Yuan Yu confirmed with a nod.

Xu Qinglang looked at Yuan Yu in disbelief, "You wouldn’t lie to me, would you? Is his eyesight cured?"

"No."

Yuan Yu denied it, stating confidently, "His eyesight isn’t cured. On the way today, he fell many times."

"Then how did he find the ginseng?" Xu Qinglang simply couldn’t fathom how someone who couldn’t see managed to find medicinal herbs.

With so many of them, were they really not as capable as a person who couldn’t see?

"It was truly luck. His luck is very good," Yuan Yu explained in detail how Tang Jun rolled down a gentle slope and stumbled upon the ginseng, clarifying everything for Xu Qinglang.

After hearing it, Xu Qinglang could only say, "His luck is extraordinary."

Accidentally rolling down a slope without getting hurt yet finding the ginseng is simply...

"So, what did you say to him?" Xu Qinglang asked again, and he stealthily glanced around and went to the doorway, crouching low and tip-toeing to Yuan Yu’s side, asking in a low voice, "He’s here to rescue us, right? When can we leave?"

"He’s here to rescue us." Yuan Yu’s words had just fallen.

Xu Qinglang wanted to shout in excitement but feared being overheard, so he hurriedly covered his mouth, his eyes glowing with thrill and excitement. Having inexplicably been captured here, Xu Qinglang pretended not to be afraid in front of Yuan Yu, though deep down he was panicking. Now that Tang Jun and the others had arrived, they finally had hope of being saved.

Well, even though Tang Jun’s eyesight isn’t good, managing to penetrate this place is quite an achievement, right?

Moreover, it’s unlikely Tang Jun came to rescue them alone, right?

Xu Qinglang was aware of Tang Jun’s team, knowing they all were skilled elite among elites. With them coming to the rescue, surely, they’d be safe.

"Yuan Yu, quickly tell us, when can we leave?" Xu Qinglang lowered his voice, but he couldn’t hide the excitement in his words.

"Not yet."

Yuan Yu thought of the early morning when Tang Jun was angrily insisting she leave, his concern for her making her heart feel sweet. Although she had been angry with him, thinking of cutting ties when they reunited, the sight of him made the anger dissipate.

"Why?"

As soon as Xu Qinglang heard ’not yet,’ he became anxious, urgently saying, "Yuan Yu, explain clearly, why can’t we leave yet?"

"What’s going on? Has something happened?"

In his anxiety, Xu Qinglang forgot to lower his voice.

Yuan Yu immediately reached out and covered his mouth, quickly glancing around before saying, "Xu Qinglang, don’t shout. If you shout, everyone will know, and then none of us can leave."

Xu Qinglang froze.

"Don’t speak."

Yuan Yu whispered, realizing belatedly that the position felt wrong, she quickly withdrew her hand and spoke seriously: "Tang, he wanted me to leave, but I didn’t agree. Think about it, if I leave, it’ll be even harder for him to rescue you, and also..." His situation would become more dangerous.

Yuan Yu hadn’t finished speaking when Xu Qinglang’s excited gaze made her swallow the rest of her words. She asked, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

"You’re worried about me." Xu Qinglang looked at Yuan Yu with excitement and said, "I knew it, I knew you cared about me, Xiao Yu, my sincerity wasn’t in vain."

"What does that have to do with anything?" Yuan Yu stopped him quickly, saying, "We are doctors and friends; it’s normal for me to worry about you. But can you lower your voice?"

"Okay, okay."

Xu Qinglang didn’t care about Yuan Yu’s explanation; he felt explanations were just cover-ups. Xu Qinglang felt delighted and said, "Then should we help with something?"

Xu Qinglang wasn’t dumb; Yuan Yu said not yet, meaning Tang Jun and the others wanted to do more?

"We need to understand the layout of this place and the sentries," Yuan Yu whispered intently into Xu Qinglang’s ear.

Xu Qinglang nodded repeatedly, raising his wrist to look at his watch; it was only six in the morning, too early. Given they had been busy all night, they should first rest for a while.

Xu Qinglang yawned as he said, "Why don’t we rest for two hours and then go investigate?"

"I’ve been tired to death."

Xu Qinglang had been tense before, but now knowing someone was coming to rescue them, he suddenly relaxed.

"Seriously, you want to rest?" Yuan Yu stared at Xu Qinglang, who was already lying on the table as if ready for sleep.

With eyes closed, Xu Qinglang looked like he would sleep until the end of time.

"Hey."

Before Yuan Yu could say more, someone entered with breakfast. Breakfast was quite abundant, indicating that the person was probably safe.

Otherwise, such a rich breakfast wouldn’t be brought.

"Xu Qinglang, get up to eat."

Hungry, Yuan Yu began to eat by the table. She was indeed starving.

"Mm." Xu Qinglang replied, turned over, and continued to sleep.

"Brother, what are you looking at?"

After He Ming returned here, he constantly calculated time, using the marks he left, Jiang Liu and the others should be able to find their way here, but how long it would take was another question.

He Ming pondered for a long time but couldn’t figure it out. He intended to see Tang Jun, but there he was, spotting Tang Jun looking up at the sky with a silly expression, making him nudge him and say, "Brother, what’s so interesting about the sky?"

"It’s nice," Tang Jun affirmed.

He Ming tilted his head, matching Tang Jun’s angle to see what was special about the sky.

"Brother," He Ming thought thoroughly, feeling Tang Jun might perceive everything as pitch black. He comforted, "Brother, don’t worry, your eyes can definitely be cured, but..."
