Chapter 124 Back to the Stars

The next morning, Qianchengxue pushed a wheelchair, and Su Mo sat in it with a small blanket over him.

She slowly pushed Su Mo out of the ward, heading towards the floating elevator.

Behind the Central Hospital was a small, exclusive interstellar airport.

The Dark Shadow had landed there early.

"Thank you for everything."

Su Mo softly said to Qianchengxue.

Qianchengxue revealed a faint smile and said to Su Mo, "Do we still need to be so polite with each other?"

"Yeah, I guess not."

Su Mo replied in a good mood.

Before long, Qianchengxue pushed Su Mo to the small interstellar airport, where Sun Duoxiang and the others were waiting.

When they saw Qianchengxue pushing Su Mo, they rushed forward, extremely excited.

"Boss!"

...

Actually, Sun Duoxiang and the others had wanted to visit Su Mo, but they simply couldn't get in.

Su Mo looked at the familiar faces, a bright smile on his face. "How have you guys been?"

"We're fine. How's your health, Boss?"

Sun Duoxiang and the others asked, their eyes red as they looked at Su Mo in the wheelchair.

"I'm getting better. I'll be fine after some treatment, don't worry. Let's get on the ship."

Su Mo said with a comforting smile.

"Okay, Boss, let us push you."

Sun Duoxiang and the others scrambled to push Su Mo.

"It's the same whoever pushes, don't fight."

Seeing how eager they were, Su Mo couldn't help but smile wryly.

...

Nighttime, inside a room on the Dark Shadow.

Qianchengxue pushed Su Mo into the bathroom, then squatted down and gently took off Su Mo's clothes.

She looked at the shocking, contaminated bloodstains.

Qianchengxue gently stroked them, saying with distress, "Does it hurt a lot?"

"It doesn't hurt, I'm fine."

Su Mo reassured her.

"Okay."

Qianchengxue didn't say much, just continued to remove Su Mo's lower garments.

Su Mo was starting to get a little uneasy. He awkwardly started chatting with Qianchengxue to distract himself.

"Um, Xue'er, did you see a special crystal stone that I had on me before?"

"Yes, I put it with your colonization armor."

"Oh, that's good. By the way, was the Federation's loss this time serious?"

"It was quite serious, but they also gained a huge return. I heard the Federation is planning to set up a transit supply base at the Lewakris base..."

As Qianchengxue replied, she turned on the showerhead and tested the water temperature.

Then, she rinsed Su Mo's body with warm water, thoughtfully asking, "Is the water temperature okay?"

"Yes, it's fine."

Because it was the first time, Su Mo looked a little shy.

Qianchengxue put some bath foam on her hands and very carefully started to rub Su Mo's whole body.

Although Su Mo's body was in bad shape, he didn't have any major external injuries, so he could take a shower.

It would make him feel more comfortable.

After all, he hadn't showered for dozens of days, and his body odor was quite strong.

Although Su Mo couldn't move at this time, it didn't mean his senses were completely gone.

He was different from someone who was truly paralyzed.

When Qianchengxue's delicate fingers slid across his skin, he would inexplicably start breathing faster.

His heart couldn't help but beat faster.

Just then, the door was pushed open, and Sun Duoxiang rushed in, excitedly shouting.

"Boss, ah..."

As soon as Sun Duoxiang came in, he saw the scene before him, and his whole body froze.

Su Mo almost coughed up blood. This guy still had the same old problem: either he would knock frantically like his life depended on it, or he would just barge in without knocking at all.

"What are you doing? What is it?"

Su Mo asked in annoyance.

Sun Duoxiang came back to his senses and quickly explained, "Boss, the ship is ready, we can prepare to set sail, just waiting for your order."

"It's ready, then just take off. You can decide these things yourself, why do you need to ask me?"

Su Mo wanted to slap him.

"Ah, okay, okay, I understand. I won't disturb you and Sister Xue."

Sun Duoxiang looked enlightened and didn't forget to give Su Mo a thumbs up.

"Let me wash your hair."

When Qianchengxue heard Sun Duoxiang's words, she immediately reacted and lowered her head. Her fair cheeks flushed, and she spoke softly.

"Okay."

...

A long time later, Qianchengxue, dressed in blue casual clothes, pushed Su Mo, who had finished his shower, out of the room.

"Shall we go to the command room?"

Qianchengxue asked softly.

"No, let's leave those trivial matters to Sun Duoxiang and the others. Let's go to the observation deck to relax. It's been a while since we've been alone."

Su Mo thought for a moment and replied.

"Okay!"

Then, Qianchengxue pushed Su Mo toward the Dark Shadow's observation deck.

A moment later, the two arrived at the spacious observation deck. Through the panoramic glass, they could clearly see the distance.

At this time, the Dark Shadow was slowly rising, gradually leaving the artificial planet and heading toward the stargate.

In the distance, they could see the towering stargate.

The entire stargate emitted a dazzling halo.

Countless interstellar ships of all shapes and sizes were orderly entering the stargate.

At the same time, a massive fleet of ships was exiting the stargate.

Looking at this unprecedented scene, Su Mo could truly appreciate what Commander Nanqi had said: the curtain of a great era had really been drawn open.

He could imagine how prosperous the future would be.

At this moment, the Dark Shadow began to accelerate, slowly heading toward the stargate.

...

One month later.

Star Ring City, Second Ring, Central Hospital.

Su Mo lay quietly in bed, surrounded by a group of doctors who were constantly discussing him.

Qianchengxue stood nervously at the head of the bed, holding Su Mo's hand.

At this time, the leading female doctor, who looked very stern and old, said in a deep voice, "From our new round of comprehensive examinations, we can confirm that his body is indeed improving. If this trend continues, there will be no problem for him to regain his mobility."

"That's great. Dr. Lifen, how long will it take for Su Mo to be able to get out of bed and walk?"

Qianchengxue secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked.

"That's hard to say. Overall, it will take at least a year and a half."

Dr. Lifen thought for a moment and replied.

"Thank you."

Qianchengxue said gratefully.

"You're welcome. Also, I have something to inform you. From now on, Su Mo doesn't need to stay in the hospital anymore. He can be discharged and go home to recuperate, as long as he comes back for check-ups on time."

Dr. Lifen thought for a while and instructed.

"Okay."

Qianchengxue was also very happy. Su Mo could finally be discharged from the hospital, which meant that his physical condition had greatly improved.
