Chapter 277 Returning Home to Recover
Wen Cheng'an didn't want Shi Xia to expose her abilities here, fearing that the doctor's examination would reveal them.

"I've already exposed most of it."

Although Shi Xia didn't say it explicitly, someone who can move freely in the sea is definitely not a normal person.

Wen Chengan shook his head again.

"Different."

"Okay, then let's wait until we get home."

Shi Xia did not argue, withdrew her hand, and talked with Wen Cheng'an for a while.

He was told that he had completed his mission well, but was discovered during the evacuation. After a firefight, he was injured, but fortunately his teammates were very helpful and brought him back.

"Just come back."

"Of course I have to come back. My wife is here. It wasn't easy for me to marry her."

Shi Xia moved closer to the window and took Wen Cheng'an's hand, supporting her chin.

Wen Cheng'an's fingers were rough yet warm, which gradually put Shi Xia's mind at ease.

Wen Cheng'an made it sound simple, but Shi Xia knew the danger involved.

The two didn't talk about anything heavy, just chatted casually.

As it got a little late, Shi Xia urged Wen Cheng'an to rest. She didn't leave the ward but asked for a bed and rested there.

The next morning, Shi Xia woke up to find Wen Cheng'an staring at her intently.

The moment Wen Cheng'an saw Shi Xia open her eyes, he broke into a big smile, his voice sweet.

"Good morning, wife."

Good morning, did you sleep well?

"Of course it's good to have a wife!"

Shi Xia sat up, stretched her arms and legs, put on her shoes, and looked at the sunshine outside.

What can we eat now?

"It's all edible."

Shi Xia nodded and said, "I'll go out and take a look, and ask the doctor while I'm at it."

Before Shi Xia could leave, the doctor came in first for his routine morning rounds.

Wen Chengan is a key person under special attention.

The attending physician, surnamed Li, was in his forties. He asked some questions and examined the wound.

"When can I be discharged from the hospital?"

Wen Chengan asked, and Shi Xia also looked at the doctor.

"The wound is healing well, and the sutures are being absorbed properly. You can be discharged now."

Shi Xia and Wen Cheng'an exchanged a glance.

"I'll ask Dr. Xu first. He needs to get all the medicine in Beijing. Once he's better, we'll be discharged."

"it is good!"

After the two agreed, Shi Xia followed the doctor out and asked for more details, such as what Wen Cheng'an's wound looked like.

What should be paid attention to during the later stages of healing, and how should the diet be arranged?

Dr. Li patiently explained everything to her, and after Shi Xia expressed her gratitude, she returned to her ward.

When she returned, she saw that the orderly was bringing food to Wen Cheng'an again, so she no longer needed to worry about it.

The two ate together, and after finishing their meal, Shi Xia went out again to find Old Man Xu.

That day, Shi Xia and Old Man Xu were outside, and Old Ma was with them as well.

Whenever Old Xu needed certain medicinal herbs but couldn't find them, Old Ma would come in handy.

The main focus is on "borrowing".

The Chinese medicinal herbs in major hospitals in Beijing, as well as those from families with close personal relationships with Lao Ma, were all borrowed.

To paraphrase Shi Xia, if I can borrow from abroad, why can't you borrow from within China?
What could Lao Ma say? He absolutely could!
After Shi Xia borrowed the medicine for three days, Old Man Xu had gathered all the necessary herbs.

The three of them prepared to return, but they could only take the train back because their wounds had only just healed from the stitches. The air pressure was different, which wouldn't be good for the wounds.

The train is safer.

Shi Xia didn't find it troublesome at all.

The day the three left, many families breathed a sigh of relief.

The bandits finally left. Shi Xia was able to borrow so many things only because it was authorized by higher-ups; otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy.

At this moment, in front of the hospital, Shi Xia easily picked up Wen Cheng'an, who was in a wheelchair, and put him into the car. The soldiers who were about to lift Wen Cheng'an didn't help at all.

The group arrived at the train station and boarded the train in their private compartment, where they would not be disturbed by outsiders.

Along the way, Shi Xia used every privilege she could get her hands on.

They arrived safely, and Shi Xia carried Wen Cheng'an off the train once again.

Most men would feel a little embarrassed being hugged by a woman, but Wen Cheng'an was different; he thoroughly enjoyed it.

My wife never hugs other people easily!
snort!
That's how proud I am!

The three boarded the ship and, instead of returning to Haiming Island, went to Haisan Island.

When the villagers saw Wen Cheng'an in a wheelchair, their hearts sank. How could this have happened?

Shi Xia explained that she was injured and needed to go home to recuperate.

The villagers were all worried and told Shi Xia to let them know if she needed any help.

Some people are even trying to come up with unconventional remedies, just to lend a hand, in case they work.
Shi Xia and Wen Cheng'an returned home amidst everyone's worry and concern, and Uncle Wen and Aunt Wen also came over.

Auntie wanted to cry, but she held it back, as did Uncle Wen.

At this time, the last thing you should say is discouraging words.

"It's okay, just stay home and rest."

Wen Cheng'an looked at Uncle Wen with ease.

"Dad, I want to eat braised pork ribs."

"Okay! Dad will make it for you!"

Wen Cheng'an turned to his aunt and said, "Mom, I want to drink your steamed egg with minced meat."

"Okay, Mom will make it for you right away."

The couple were both sent away to do chores; being busy would make them feel less upset.

The two had originally planned to return to their family home, but they couldn't hide their injuries. The elderly couple would be even more anxious if they couldn't see each other, and they also needed to take care of Mr. Xu's medical needs, so they came back instead.

Wen Cheng'an still lives in Shi Xia's room.

Simply put, it's big and spacious.

That same day, Uncle Cao, Accountant Xu, and others came to visit.

People came and went all afternoon, but in the end, it was Shi Xia who said she needed to rest, and everyone finally calmed down.

However, Shi Xia's neighbors were unusually quiet and cooperative.

That night, Shi Xia used her supernatural power on Wen Cheng'an.

After a night of gentle nourishment, Wen Chengan's complexion became a little rosier.

In the days that followed, the two of them peacefully recuperated on the three islands.

Old Xu would come over personally every day to brew medicine, massage, and perform acupuncture. Combined with Shi Xia's special ability, Wen Cheng'an's legs were actually changing every day.

At the same time, everyone in the family compound knew that Wen Chengan was injured, and Xue Gang, Zhou Yusheng, Li Erniu and others came to see him.

Everyone takes turns coming.

Their idea was good; to keep Wen Cheng'an from getting too bored, they would take turns keeping him company.

In fact, Shi Xia was at home every day, so Wen Cheng'an was not bored at all.

Not only is he not bored, but sometimes he even thinks that living like this for the rest of his life would be pretty good.

Of course, he only thought about it; he still wanted to stand up, since there were more positions to be taken when standing up.

The days of recuperation passed quietly. No rumors or bad things were spread, whether in the family compound or on Hai San Island. After all, who would dare to say anything bad?
Two months and fifteen days later, Wen Chengan got up as usual and tried to pull his wheelchair.

Just a hair's breadth away, he exerted his strength, and his lower limbs suddenly moved.

Wen Chengan himself was stunned.

He had high hopes, but after waiting for more than two months, those hopes had diminished somewhat. This sudden surprise took him a while to process.

After digestion comes ecstasy.

He tried again, and it actually worked, although it was a bit difficult.

"Shi Xia, my wife!"
