Xiao Xiao smiled. "Goodbye, Old Master Zhao."
"Goodbye."
Old Master Zhao watched Xiao Xiao disappear behind the door.
A soft click followed as the door closed in the quiet hospital room.
He smiled.
Then he turned to look out the window.
The sky was blue, and the sun was shining brightly.
It was perfect weather for going to the beach.
Too bad...
He turned his gaze away.
He just had to get injured at a time like this...
"Woof~"
Tiger Cub rested his head on the hospital bed.
His eyes were fixed on Zhao Lei's face.
Everything had been taken care of, so why did he still look so unhappy?
Humans were such a hassle.
The old man stroked Tiger Cub's head.
The soft, smooth feel made his eyes narrow slightly.
"...I still wish I could go myself."
"Woof~"
Tiger Cub rolled his eyes.
Still hung up on that...
Go himself for what?
It had been so many years. What difference would one more time make?
Besides, he'd already sent someone to pass along a message.
What was there to worry about now?
Tiger Cub had said it before.
Zhao Lei just loved worrying about things that didn't need worrying about.
He'd known Zhao Lei for so many years, and that had never changed.
"I know..."
The old man murmured.
Soon, he gave his head a firm shake.
His expression brightened with determination.
He'd follow the treatment plan and recover as quickly as possible.
But injuries to the bones and tendons took a hundred days to heal...
He shook his head with a wry smile.
Honestly, what was wrong with him?
How had he managed to fall down the mountain?
He'd been far too careless.
The unexpected injury had thrown many of his plans into disarray.
