《After The System Punished Me to Give Birth》Chapter 9
Advertisement
Officers and soldiers in black rushed in after young man left. They propped up the unconscious man in the alley and carefully checked the wanted portrait to determine that it was indeed the wicked thief, they then prepared to take him back to the government. Only then did Su Jingyang know that they were hunting this wicked guy everywhere.
Seeing that everything had been taken care of, Su Jingyang held Ah-Xuan who had already woken up and was about to go home quickly. Ling Li was still disoriented, he was really worried.
But the head of the officers stopped him and said that he needed to receive his reward.
There was even a bounty? Su Jingyang didn't think about it at all, he was taken aback for a moment before saying: "I didn't catch this person. The person who caught him has already left."
"Do you know him?"
"I don't know him."
The officer had actually eeen the young man in black just now, he saw that Su Jingyang was honest and wasn't greedy, he felt a bit inclined to him. He pondered for a moment and said: "That man must've been a young hero who doesn't want to be named, he shouldn't be greedy of any materialistic things. If you will, you had also helped us find this thief, otherwise we couldn't have caught him so quickly, you can just follow us back to receive the bounty."
Su Jingyang couldn't believe it. Was there such a good thing? ? ?
However, he was worried about Ling Li and didn't go with them, he took the child home without even a moment of delay. He didn't know when but Ling Li, who was supposed to be lying on bed, had struggled to get out some time ago, but because of lack of physical strength, he had fallen onto the threshold.
Su Jingyang put the unscathed Ah-Xuan on the ground and hurriedly bent over to pick him up, and carried him into the room.
Ling Li's face was as white as a ghost, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, and he faintly called out Su Jingyang's name. Su Jingyang was sweating profusely and said to him hurriedly: "The child has been found back, there's nothing wrong with him, rest assured."
Ling Li's head tilted as soon as Su Jingyang finished speaking and he fainted.
Ah-Xuan was so stupid that he didn't even know what was going on. Biting his fingers, he followed Su Jingyang and went inside the room with him. After Su Jingyang put Ling Li on the bed, he followed him into the bedroom. He the began climbing on Ling Li's body, Su Jingyang quickly lifted him off and said to him solemnly and quietly, "Daddy isn't feeling well, don't make trouble."

Ah-Xuan blinked his eyes and lay motionless on the side of the bed.
Su Jingyang checked Ling Li's body and found an injury on the back of his head, there were even blood stains. Su Jingyang was worried, afraid he might've had a concussion.
Su Jingyang picked up Ah-Xuan and locked the doors and windows of the house, he then quickly went to the nearest place to get a doctor to treat Ling Li. The doctor should've also known about Ling Li, but it was probably because of kindness, he didn't say anything unusual. Ling Li was treated properly and prescribed medicine.
Su Jingyang was very grateful, he gave him double the consultation fee and escorted him to the door.
After the doctor left, Su Jingyang gave the dizzy Ling Li boiled medicine and took care of him. Ling Li vomited several times. Su Jingyang wiped his face with hot water and cleaned the ground. After Ling Li was comfortably set up, Su Jingyang took Ah-Xuan to the kitchen again, he let him sit next to stove and cooked some noodles for the two of them as dinner, at the same time he made some warm porridge in case Ling Li woke up hungry that night.
In fact, since he had lived here, Ling Li had taken care of him a lot, cooking, washing clothes, chopping wood, and carrying water. He basically didn't let him get involved in daily life matters, and even water for washing his face in the morning was brought to him every day. Because of this, Su Jingyang felt that he was almost spoiled by Ling Li. Now that he could take care of him in this way, Su Jingyang must also be meticulous in all aspects, not sloppy.
While bathing Ah-Xuan who was yawning frequently, Su Jingyang frowned from time to time and rubbed his chest. He always felt a little uncomfortable there. It was stuffy and painful, as if there was something that was blocking something. When the doctor came, he had forgotten that he was also injured and didn't let him take a look.
Su Jingyang hissed uncomfortably, he dried Ah-Xuan's little feet, picked him up, "Go, go to bed with uncle!"
Su Jingyang was older than Ling Li and asked Ah-Xuan to call him uncle, even though the child had never called him that.
A-hXuan moved in Su Jingyang's arms and suddenly raised his hands to rub Su Jingyang's face. He opened his small mouth and said with some slurriness, "I, l-like uncle, Xuan! Likes, uncle."
Although his pronunciation was still stubbornly vague when he spoke, Su Jingyang still understood it. He was immediately shocked and looked at the child in his arms with some surprise.
Ling Li was relatively quiet at home, he doesn't talk much when he getting along with the child. Unlike Su Jingyang, he often talked to Ah-Xuan after he came to live here, regardless of whether the child could understand it or not. Because he felt that even if the child's brain had been hurt and couldn't speak very well, he still needed to understand language to gain an advantage on his environment. After listening to enough talk, he may even learn how to write a few words someday. The rewards were sweet, although the effect has been minimal, Su Jingyang still talked to him while he was with Ah-Xuan, slowly teaching him how to speak.

Unpredictably, his effort bore fruit at such an unexpected time!
Su Jingyang was very happy. It seemed that the pain in his chest had alleviated a lot. He kissed Ah-Xuan’s white and tender face several times, Ah-Xuan imitated what he did and kissed him back a few more times, giggling happily.
If Ling Li wasn't in a coma at this time, Su Jingyang would've run to wake him up and show off to him.
Su Jingyang was still worried about Ling Li that night, so he slept on the floor of his room. After a night of hustle and bustle, he endured the pain in his body and fell asleep, he didn't remember that this day was another five-day period.
For him, the things that he had endured tonight seemed to be torture-like humiliation. He panted uncomfortably and kept trying to hide, but he didn't have any strength. Every time the person on his body pulls/plugs in, he could feel his internal organs surging, the suffocation in his chest became stronger and stronger, and he felt that something was about to spray out.
Finally, before the first round ended, Su Jingyang's body trembled and he finally vomited a mouthful of blood. He coughed and opened his eyes slowly. His legs were sticky and the pain of being invaded by a foreign body seemed to be still there, but he found that he had returned to the floor.
This was the first instance of him being allowed to leave from the battlefield halfway. Su Jingyang was also very confused. He laid down while holding the quilt and sat up after a while, he rubbed away the blood from his mouth indiscriminately with his hand. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but after the blood came out, he began to feel better.
Su Jingyang got up and looked at the two people on the bed being illuminated by candlelight safely left burning in the house. He saw that they were still sleeping peacefully during this hour, so he continued to lay back down to sleep. He thought that the system would send him back again, but he didn't expect to wake up naturally after falling asleep.
Su Jingyang thought about it for a while before getting up, that person's spring/wet dream was suddenly interrupted, he didn't know what kind of reaction he would have...
Facing the faint light of dawn, Su Jingyang gargled in the courtyard with disheveled hair, Ling Li unexpectedly got up. He walked to Su Jingyang's side with erratic steps. He glanced at Su Jingyang and before Su Jingyang could prepare himself, he knelt down with a puff.
The water in Su Jingyang's mouth was spat out and he coughed. He quickly helped Ling Li up, only to find tears on his cheeks.
"Ali..." Su Jingyang was startled.
Ling Li's tearful eyes gazed at him deeply, "Thank you, thank you, Jingyang, you've helped us and saved us time and time again."
"Hey, why are we still talking about this." Su Jingyang said helplessly: "You should go back to rest."
Ling Li's hand grasped Su Jingyang's arm very tightly, his head was tied with gauze, and his face was still so pale, his figure was a bit shaky but his slightly moist eyes looked straight at Su Jingyang, and his tone was firm and strong when he said it, "Jingyang, I will repay you with all my life, I'll definitely do it."
A simple sentence, but it seems to carry endless weight, no one could ignore its determination.
Su Jingyang felt embarrassed. He smiled and helped him to walk into the house: "Well, if you want to repay me, you can just give me good food every day... not now, of course, you're still hurting, let's talk about it after you've recovered from your injury."
"……alright."
Ling Li didn't want to aggravate his injury because of his stubbornness, so he obeyed him very docilely and laid back down to rest.
Ling Li asked if Su Jingyang was injured. After vomiting blood, Su Jingyang had felt a lot more relaxed. He didn't want to tell him and make him worry, so he shook his head and said that he was fine, he then told him about the boy in black.
Of course, he skipped the misunderstanding of the two and the process of being beaten up, he only enthusiastically told the part of the young martial arts hero who saved Ah-Xuan.
Ling Li was naturally extremely grateful. Hearing Su Jingyang say that the boy had left after saving them, he sighed, saying that he would invite them to dinner next time if he had a chance.
Su Jingyang answered, "Of course, of course." But in his heart, he was thinking: this idiot doesn't even deserve to know that someone's name, how could that someone be worthy of eating at the same table with them? He didn't want Ali to be ridiculed as well, so it was best not to meet him again!
