Chapter 1538
He looked normal even after taking off the mask.
Other than his paleplexion, he did not seem any different.He was just a little weak.
The gue had spread so quickly and fiercely, but there seemed to be nothing serious about
contracting the disease.
ording to the news, those infected would be coughing non- stop, and those with severe symptoms
might even cough up blood alongside other unknown symptoms.
However, looking at Alexander, it wasn''t as serious as it sounded.
"Stick out your tongue!" She ordered again.
Alexander was taken aback for a moment before heughed.
"Look at you! You''re quite thorough!"
"Enough nonsense! Stick out your tongue!"
Lily had a solemn look on her face, looking like an extremely strict doctor.
With a doting smile, Alexander obediently cooperated with her and stuck out his tongue.His tongue
seemed to be covered in a thickyer of mucus with tooth marks on the edge and white patches in the
middle.
After studying medicine with Dominic for so many years, this was the first time Lily tried diagnosing a
person.
In the past, she rarely had the opportunity to consult patients.
She could only follow Dominic around and learn by observation.
Later, the only time she treated someone was for a minor ailment.
It was nothing as serious as the gue this time.
She probably wouldn''t have bothered if it weren''t for Alexander.
"How is it? Can you save me?"
Alexander said half-jokingly as he noticed her straighten up with a serious expression on her face.
"How did you get the gue? Do you feel difort anywhere else?"Lily did not joke around as she
sat down beside him and asked gently.
The smile on his face froze.He couldn''t recall.
"I''m not quite sure. After going over to Burnwken, I hardly went anywhere else. I spent most of my time
in the factory and had no contact with outsiders.
"you know the situation there.With the ongoing war, it''s not safe for me to go out.One day, people in the
factory began to start coughing.Some had fevers, and most of them felt lethargic.I also began to feel
that something was wrong with me."
"So, this happened without warning?"
Listening to what he said, Lily felt that it was simr to what she had heard from the news.
However, she wanted to hear his experience firsthand rather than through the media.
"Yeah! Later, my symptoms became a little serious, and I couldn''t get out of bed.The war blew up
telmunications in the area, and I couldn''t get in touch with you.Did I make you worry?"
At this time, he still thought about how he must have made her worry.
Lily quickly shook her head.
"It''s fine! So, how did you get here?"
"It was a coincidence.I knew Greg a while back and gave him this ce.I didn''t think I''d be needing it
now." He sighed.
Everything had to be arranged in secret.
Lily was surprised.
"You gave this to him?"
"Yeah."
Alexander nodded.
"I discovered this ce by ident when my master took me here to train.However, this wooden cabin
isn''t like how it was before.It was deserted.I thought that it was a good ce to iste myself for self-
cultivation.
Later, I renovated it to its current state.
"Then, I met Greg..."
He paused, put one hand on his chest, and took a deep breath to calm himself down.
Lily didn''t urge him to continue but instead watched as he slowly adjusted his breathing.He closed his
eyes for a moment before opening them again once he regained his strength.
"He has nowhere to go, and he doesn''t want to live in the city.This was an ideal ce for him, so 1
thought I should give it to him."
"So, when you came back, this was the first ce you thought of when you needed a quiet ce to
recuperate?" She asked.
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.
Alexander nodded.
"There are very few people here, so the risk of the gue spreading is low.It''s also rtively remote
here, so it''s harder for people to find me."
