He initially waited anxiously for Zheng Aijia to wake up, but later he calmed down and began to monitor Zheng Aijia's physical condition with his senses throughout.
To be precise, he was protecting Zheng Aijia from dying again right after being rescued.
He wasn't sure if anyone had entered the room.
A full four hours passed.
Lin Xiao did not discover any suspicious individuals or any shadow assassins.
Had the other party decided not to make a move on Zheng Aijia anymore?
Or perhaps, that person didn't know yet that he had already rescued Zheng Aijia.
The unconscious Zheng Aijia's fingers twitched, and his body moved involuntarily. This movement seemed to have aggravated his wounds, causing him to let out a pained "sih ha" sound. He then reacted violently and sat up from the bed.
"Awake?"
Lin Xiao looked at Zheng Aijia and asked indifferently.
"Mmm... Damn... Why does it hurt so much..." Zheng Aijia winced in pain, then he realized something was wrong.
He stared blankly at Lin Xiao, then at his own hands: "Lin Xiao, what's wrong with me? Why am I in the hospital?"
"Why are you in the hospital?" Lin Xiao frowned at the question. Had this guy lost his memory?
With this thought, Lin Xiao's heart sank to the bottom.
He suddenly understood why those people hadn't come to continue attacking Zheng Aijia.
A Zheng Aijia who knew nothing would pose no threat to anyone.
"Yes... It was you, Divine Doctor Lin, who performed the surgery on me, right? Thank you so much. I didn't expect Lin Xiao like you to personally perform surgery on me, it was worth it." Zheng Aijia's words made Lin Xiao's face darken.
"The surgery wasn't done by me; it was done by the doctors here. To be precise, I'm the one who got you sent to the hospital," Lin Xiao said, still trying something.
"You... you beat me into the hospital?" Zheng Aijia clearly didn't understand why.
"How does your tongue feel?" Lin Xiao asked.
"Tongue?"
The next second, Zheng Aijia realized his tongue seemed to have just been reattached.
Why?
"You bit off your tongue to commit suicide, do you know that?" Lin Xiao continued.
"Bit off my tongue to commit suicide?" Zheng Aijia was even more bewildered. Why would he commit suicide when he was alive and well? And why would he provoke Lin Xiao and get beaten into the hospital by him?
"You don't remember anything?"
Lin Xiao stared at him suspiciously. He had already carefully restored this guy's brain. Why was he still suffering from amnesia?
"Remember what?"
Zheng Aijia said, and he tried to recall. However, he found his mind to be completely blank. He felt like he had forgotten many things.
He was the third son of the Zheng family. Normally, he should be training soldiers in the army at this time, and he was also busy with his promotion. But why did he inexplicably meet Lin Xiao, and even get beaten up by Lin Xiao out of anger?
He wasn't stupid. Who was Lin Xiao?
He was the Dragon King! One of the most dangerous men in the Dragon Country. Provoking Lin Xiao would be seeking death, wouldn't it? Even if he died, his own father wouldn't be able to help him.
"For example, you were the mastermind behind the tragedy of my Lin family."
