Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhang Hui and Mrs. Zhang’s plan to throw Shen Teng out was recorded by Xia Ju on her phone. Xia Ju smiled at Zhang Hui. “You said that Shen Teng won’t believe us just based on our one-sided story? But what about this recording? Do you think he’ll believe you or this ironclad evidence?”

Zhang Hui gritted her teeth and stared at Xia Ju with hatred in her eyes. The next second, she suddenly pounced on the phone in Xia Ju’s hand. “Give me the phone!”

Xia Ju did not move. She looked at Zhang Hui who was rushing over with an indifferent expression. Just as Zhang Hui was about to touch her, she nimbly dodged. Zhang Hui missed and almost fell flat on her face. Just as she finally managed to stand firm, Xia Ju raised her foot and kicked her butt.

Zhang Hui, who had yet to stand properly, was kicked out of the tent by Xia Ju. She fell heavily on the ground with a muffled sound.

Xia Ju reached out to brush the dust off her foot and pursed her lips. “You usually pretend to be gentle and quiet, but you’re actually a crazy woman. You’re even thinking of snatching my things? Why don’t you take a look at yourself? You overestimate yourself.” After saying that, Xia Ju turned to look at Du Yue. “Do you think she’s crazy? Why did she provoke us?”

Du Yue nodded. “She must’ve lost her mind.”

Mrs. Zhang glared fiercely at Xia Ju and Du Yue, then she finally shifted her gaze to He Xing. After sizing them up and realizing that she could not beat anyone here, Mrs. Zhang clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. “You’re bullying me and my daughter with your numbers. I’ll remember this. 1’11 definitely make you guys pay in the future.”

After saying those harsh words, Mrs. Zhang stumbled out of the tent and went to the courtyard to help Zhang Hui.

Du Yue could not be bothered to watch the mother and daughter play tricks. Instead, she walked to the bed with Xia Ju. On the bed, Shen Teng’s face was pale, and his body was burning. Most importantly, his hands and feet were still twitching unconsciously. This was obviously a convulsion caused by a high fever. Usually, this kind of situation would happen to children. It was very rare for a young and strong man like Shen Teng to experience a symptom like this.

Xia Ju did not dare to delay any longer. She immediately squatted down and began to examine Shen Teng’s body. After a thorough examination, Xia Ju frowned. “His current condition is not good. I’m afraid he needs to take medicine immediately.”

Du Yue and Xia Ju looked at each other. Even though neither of them spoke, Du Yue quickly understood what Xia Ju meant. They had brought medicine and syringes before they came. If Shen Teng’s condition was not serious, Xia Ju could directly give him some medicine. Now that Xia Ju said so, it meant that Shen Teng’s condition was very serious. The medicine they had prepared in advance was no longer useful. Xia Ju wanted to give Shen Teng the medicine from her space.

Du Yue, of course, trusted Xia Ju’s ability and judgment. She nodded heavily. “Alright, then go ahead and treat him! We can’t waste any time!” Anyway, Shen Teng was already unconscious from the fever and would not know what medicine Xia Ju had given him. As for Zhang Hui and her mother in the courtyard, they must be busy running away now. How could they dare to run back? Moreover, He Xing was guarding the door. No one would have the chance to break in. Xia Ju could give Shen Teng the medicine without worry.

Seeing that Du Yue and He Xing had no objections, Xia Ju did not delay any longer. She took out the medicine, opened Shen Teng’s mouth, and poured it into his mouth. After feeding him the medicine, Xia Ju put Shen Teng on the IV drip that Du Yue had brought.

Just by looking at Shen Teng’s condition, they could tell that he had been sick for some time. Zhang Hui must not have fed him anything in the past few days. Putting him on an IV drip could also replenish some lost vitamins and nutrients.

Du Yue did not know what kind of medicine Xia Ju fed Shen Teng, but she saw that Shen Teng’s pale face had visibly regained its color a few minutes after taking the medicine. Seeing that Shen Teng’s complexion and breathing had improved, the three of them finally felt relieved.

Now that Shen Teng was out of danger, they had time to deal with the mother and daughter in the courtyard. Du Yue thought that since it was Shen Teng’s own matter, they should let him deal with it after he woke up.

However, she could not help but be curious about whether Shen Teng’s illness was an accident or Zhang Hui’s deliberate plot. Shen Teng was a grown man who had survived the apocalypse for five to six years. If it were not for Zhang Hui’s schemes, would he have become so sick?

However, if this matter was really plotted by Zhang Hui, then how did Shen Teng fall into her trap?
