Chapter 6 - Worth

Upon seeing Li Huowang’s actions, Yang Na panicked and took a step back. "What are you doing? The nurse station can hear everything that we say over here."

As soon as she finished speaking, laughter resounded from the speakers by the bedside. "Haha, don't worry! We can't hear anything. Little Li, keep at it!"

"Ladies, can you please stop being so nosy? Go and focus your attention on the ICU.” Li Huowang shouted toward the speakers.

Then, he grabbed Yang Na's hand and led her to another corner of the room.

He took out the jade pendant from his pocket and placed it in her palm, then leaned close to her ear and whispered. The more she listened, the more Yang Na's eyes widened.

"This can't be true... This—" Before she could even finish her sentence, Li Huowang covered her mouth with his hand. Emerging from n0v@lbin☆, this material harbors clandestine details.

Their gazes met, and Li Huowang looked at Yang Na with intense longing in his eyes.

"Help me! Everything I have told you is true. None of the people outside trust me, not even my parents—they all think I'm crazy. You're the only person I can trust in the whole wide world. I'm not insane!"

After a few seconds, Yang Na finally nodded while biting her lips.

As she was leaving, she looked back at him through teary eyes multiple times, clearly worried about Li Huowang's mental state.

Meanwhile, Li Huowang watched her departing figure with mixed emotions. While he no longer cared about what others thought of him, Yang Na was different.

"Nana, please trust me! Just this once!"

Li Huowang shuffled around nervously inside his room. The time spent waiting for something always felt the longest.

During this time, he had suffered from another bout of hallucination, but Li Huowang quickly snapped out of it. While the doctor had told him that this wouldn’t be ideal, he was afraid that he would end up missing Yang Na.

One, two, then three days passed while Li Huowang became increasingly anxious.

“Little Li, your little girlfriend is here to visit you~” Upon hearing the nurse’s announcement, Li Huowang jumped out of the bed like a carp and rushed toward the hospital entrance.

Li Huowang bumped into Yang Na in the garden located within the hospital, and they embraced each other with excitement.

She suppressed her voice and whispered in his ear, “Huowang, it’s real, the jade pendant is real!”

“400,000!” Li Huowang sighed as he walked toward his ward. Quite a few new ideas and questions started popping up in his mind after confirming that the jade pendant was worth so much.

Was it a hallucination or a reality?

Then again, if something from there was so valuable, then it didn’t matter whether it was a hallucination or reality.

He hadn’t even taken a few steps before a familiar cry resounded behind him. Li Huowang turned back, only to see a bald and skinny old man knocking Yang Na to the ground.

Li Huowang’s blood instantly boiled over as he witnessed such a scene unfold. He gritted his teeth and dashed up fiercely, “Old Liu! That’s my girlfriend, let go of her!”

“Huhuhu~” A whistling sound filled the air as a hexagonal brick flipped and flew toward Li Huowang, directly smashing into his head.

Li Huowang felt the world spinning around him, and then he fell heavily onto the ground. His vision gradually turned red due to the wound that had opened up on his head.

A pair of bloated feet covered with the hospital gown walked across Li Huowang’s reddened vision, toward the screaming and struggling Yang Na.

The heavy footsteps gradually approached Yang Na.

There was only one thought running through Li Huowang’s mind. ‘I must not let Yang Na be harmed!’

Trembling, he fished out one of the pills given to him by the Master and stuffed it into his mouth. It mixed along with his own blood that was flowing out of the wound on his head.

In an instant, an extremely hot stream of energy surged out from his abdomen into his four limbs, filling him with strength. At the same time, his fuzzy mind instantly turned incomparably clear.

Bang!

He delivered a firm punch onto the fatty’s chin. The impact caused some of the fatty’s yellowed teeth to fly out, barely leaving him with any teeth.

Drenched in blood, Li Huowang paid no attention to the fatty who had now fallen onto the ground. Instead, he took large strides toward Old Liu, and stomped on his skinny chest.

Crack-crack.

The sound of bones breaking resounded over and over. At the same time, Old Liu was spitting out blood, his bones breaking into pieces like noodles.

Meanwhile, Yang Na was sobbing on the ground, clutching her tattered sweater. Seeing this, Li Huowang clenched his teeth, causing his gums to bleed as well.

His bloodshot eyes stared unwaveringly at the two people on the ground. He stomped on the concrete floor with one foot, and then leapt toward them like a cheetah.

“Huowang! Stop! What are you doing?!”
