Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right

Chapter 283 A bloody incident triggered by careless talk; both paid the price for their carelessness.

"Honestly, you silly sister."

Leng Yaozhu sighed helplessly, stepped forward, and with her sister's concern, carefully pulled up Leng Yulai's slipped collar and straightened her slightly wrinkled clothes.

"If you can't even take care of yourself and can't even dress properly, how can you be expected to take good care of the patient?"

Her tone was one of indulgent reproach.

After all, I've known this silly little sister since I was a child; she almost never uses her brain.

As the saying goes, all the pressure is on her. It's not bad that my silly little sister grows up happily without a care in the world.

After tidying up her sister's clothes, Leng Yaozhu walked to Lu Jun's bedside, leaned down to look at him, and gazed at him tenderly.

"How are you feeling, Mr. Lu? Are you feeling better? Those tests yesterday must have been really tough on you."

"Thank you for your concern, teacher."

Lu Jun tried to make his voice sound calm and normal, but the blush on his face had not completely faded, and there was still a trace of confusion and fatigue in the depths of his eyes after the battle.

"It's much better now."

As Leng Yaozhu approached him, Lu Jun felt his body, wrapped in the blanket, begin to feel uncontrollably hot again.

This made Lu Jun take a deep breath and forcibly suppress himself with the icy aura of the Ice Abyss Sword.

The effect was outstanding, and Lu Jun's rationality returned.

Just then, Leng Yaozhu's gaze inadvertently swept across the ground not far from Lu Jun's bed.

There, lying there, was a pair of... long trousers that belonged to a hospital gown?
and many more!

Why were Lu Jun's hospital gown pants thrown on the ground?
If his pants are on the outside... then he's under the covers...

Leng Yaozhu's mind cleared instantly, and her gaze suddenly turned to Lu Jun, with a hint of confusion.

Lu Jun followed the teacher's gaze and saw the incriminating pair of pants. Alarm bells rang in his mind, and he thought to himself:
Oh no! I was so careful, but I forgot to put my pants away!
"Lu Jun, even if you're not feeling well, you need to take care of yourself and avoid catching a cold."

As Leng Yaozhu spoke, a gentle smile graced her face, but her hand reached naturally and with an undeniable air towards the blanket that Lu Jun was tightly wrapped in.

Judging from their posture, they were about to lift it up directly.

"!!!"

When Leng Yulai saw this scene, her heart almost jumped out of her throat.

She was screaming internally:
Wait, sister, wait a minute! His pants aren't on yet!
It's over, it's over, it's over!

It's all over now!
We're about to be exposed!!!

If my sister finds out, I'll never have the face to stay here again!
No!
My life is completely over!

She could even imagine the horrific scene that would unfold when the blankets were pulled back.

As a result, Leng Yulai's face turned pale, and she felt utterly hopeless.

It has already become socially dead.

Just as Leng Yaozhu's fingers were about to touch the corner of the blanket, Leng Yulai closed her eyes in despair, accepting her fate—

"Shh!"

Leng Yaozhu abruptly threw off the blanket.

however……

What came into her view was Lu Jun's lower body, dressed in neat hospital gown trousers.

Leng Yaozhu froze, her movements stiffening, her eyes filled with astonishment.

She clearly... saw the pants on the ground just now?

how……

Lu Jun looked at her innocently, as if he didn't understand what the teacher was doing.

Leng Yaozhu subconsciously turned her head to look at the spot where her pants had just fallen down.

Clean and empty!
The pants seemed to have vanished into thin air.

"Just now, your pants weren't..."

Leng Yaozhu pointed to the empty space and looked at Lu Jun with a puzzled expression. "What pants?" Lu Jun immediately showed a concerned expression, his voice carrying just the right amount of worry, "Teacher, have you been too busy with work lately, under too much pressure, and are you hallucinating?"

"Look at you, you look a bit tired. You need to get some rest."

Leng Yaozhu was also stunned by what Lu Jun said.

She looked at the ground again, then at Lu Jun's neatly dressed trousers, and recalled that she did seem somewhat tired when she came in...

Could it be that I'm seeing things?

Is being overworked causing mental confusion?
She raised her delicate hand, somewhat puzzled, and rubbed her temples, a hint of weariness on her face.
"Sigh... There's been so much going on lately, one thing after another, I'm working non-stop..."

"Looks like I really need to get some rest."

She seemed to accept this explanation and temporarily suppressed her doubts.

She looked at Lu Jun again, and seeing that his face was still a little flushed but his breathing was relatively steady, she felt relieved.

"Yu Lai, you must take good care of Lu Jun, don't be careless. I have an important meeting to attend, so I'll be leaving now."

"Take care, sister..." Leng Yulai's voice was barely audible, carrying a sense of exhaustion from surviving a disaster.

The door clicked shut softly.

Once she confirmed that her sister had really left, Leng Yulai's taut nerves snapped instantly. Her legs went weak, and she collapsed onto the cold floor with a thud, leaning against the wall, panting heavily, her full chest heaving violently.

"Phew, phew, that scared me to death! That was close, really close! We were almost, almost discovered..."

She patted her chest, still shaken, feeling as if her soul had almost flown away from her body.

Lu Jun, lying on the hospital bed, let out a long, silent sigh of relief. His tense body completely relaxed, and a fine layer of cold sweat seeped from his forehead.

Luckily, I reacted quickly and used my supernatural powers to instantly retract the pants and put them back on.

Otherwise... the consequences would be unimaginable.

Lu Jun never expected that his Ice Abyss Sword Divine Power would be used for such a thing.

Leng Yulai and Lu Jun exchanged a glance, both seeing the same lingering fear and relief in each other's eyes.

This bloody incident, triggered by careless talk, has finally come to a temporary, albeit safe, end.

But the invisible barrier between the two seemed to have been completely shattered, and a subtle atmosphere of relief and utter awkwardness filled the air.

It's estimated that starting today, neither of them will dare to make such unrestrained jokes anymore.

Because they all paid a heavy price for their careless remarks...

Leng Yulai sat on the ground, looking at the weak and innocent little rascal on the hospital bed. Recalling everything that had happened in the ward today, an indescribable sense of shame and indignation mixed with a strange tremor welled up in her heart again.

"My dear aunt, please don't tell anyone!"

Lu Jun looked utterly helpless.

"You may be shameless, but I am. You don't want this matter to spread throughout the entire Spirit Pagoda, do you?"

Leng Yulai blushed and glared at Lu Jun:

"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you... if it weren't for you... hmph."

"What's it to me? You were the one who got all worked up first, insisting on talking nonsense. And now, your nonsense has turned into something real. What can I do? You've got to hold me back."

Lu Jun sighed.

"Just accept it. I mean, why did things turn out this way for the two of us... sigh."

"……really."

Leng Yulai lowered her head.

This is too abstract.

This incident also served as a reminder to Lu Jun and Leng Yulai that they should never make careless remarks in the future.

Otherwise, I might really act impulsively and lose my temper...

Lu Jun raised his hand to his forehead.

I'm not clean anymore.
