Full Health Resurrection

The next day, as the last piece of plaster was removed from Sheng Jiu, he jumped off the hospital bed as lightly as a dragon unleashed from its seal. "Hahaha, Honkai Beasts, your Uncle Sheng is back!"

"Thump!" The Military Doctor tapped Sheng Jiu lightly on the head. "Quiet down, other patients are resting!"

"Ouch, sorry Doctor, I just got a little too excited." Sheng Jiu scratched his head sheepishly, looking at the young woman in front of him who appeared to be around his age.

Svet pouted. "Hmph, I have to admit, you're one lucky kid. No student has ever survived a fight with a Herrscher of Honkai and returned alive. What have you been eating to recover so quickly?"

"Honestly, I don't know either. I can't believe my body is fully recovered in just two weeks." Sheng Jiu felt a bit creeped out by Svet's gaze, which was like she was examining a lab rat.

"Never mind, I'll have to study you thoroughly someday. I'm busy, so I'm leaving. Be careful out there, don't go dying on me before I uncover the secrets within you."

With that, the genius military doctor flicked her brown short hair and left like a gust of wind, leaving Sheng Jiu utterly astonished. *'I guess this is what makes geniuses different...' *

In the classroom, Kiana was listlessly resting her head on Yae Sakura's shoulder, muttering, "I'm so bored. It feels like something's missing these past two weeks with that lazy bum gone..."

"Correction, Bronya believes Idiot Kiana has fallen for Idiot Sheng Jiu," Bronya chimed in from the side.

Kiana's face instantly flushed red. She buried her head in Yae Sakura's arm and stammered, "Wh-what are you talking about! I would never like someone like him! I only helped him because he saved me, and I grudgingly brought him meals. I only like Yae Sakura!"

Yae Sakura watched the two bicker and chuckled, gently flicking Kiana's nose. "You, you never fail to cause trouble."

Just then, a familiar voice suddenly rang out. "Hey, hey, saying that makes me so sad. I guess I'll just eat the sundaes I bought for you myself then."

Kiana's head snapped up. Sheng Jiu was sitting at his own seat, a playful smile on his face as he looked at the three of them. "Surprise! Your buddy is back at full health!"

Kiana stepped forward and smacked Sheng Jiu hard. "You scared me to death!"

Sheng Jiu pitifully held up the four cups of sundaes he was carrying. "You violent woman! I was trying to surprise you all with sundaes, and you hit me? I'm so heartbroken!"

Kiana casually snatched the bag, sticking out her tongue with a grin. "Tch, since you brought us food, I won't hold a grudge about what just happened!"

"Shouldn't I be the one saying that..."

Yae Sakura accepted a sundae, offering a apologetic smile. "Thank you, Sheng Jiu. Kiana didn't cause you any trouble these past few days, did she?"

Sheng Jiu quickly waved his hands. "Don't worry, Yae Sakura. She's actually quite reliable when she's serious. She even... oh, the meals she brought me every day were always warm." As Sheng Jiu spoke, he suddenly felt Kiana's murderous glare and quickly changed his tune.

"Bronya suspects Idiot Sheng Jiu is hiding something," Bronya said, resting her chin on her hand and looking suspiciously at Kiana.

Kiana, blushing, retorted, "What! Do you think I'm the type of person to take advantage of a lazy bum like him?"

"Very much so."

"You!"

At that moment, Walter walked in from outside and saw everyone fooling around. "Sheng Jiu, come out with me for a moment."
