Hearing Chen Kai's silence, Qin Yue grew even more anxious.
"Are your injuries severe? Why do I feel that you have become silent? I remember you were not like this before, always able to crack a joke or two no matter the circumstances. But now, not only have you become reserved, but your footsteps seem heavier too."
Chen Kai could only respond with a bitter smile, thinking that indeed he was injured, but carrying her, who must weigh not less than a hundred and eighty pounds, was not a problem.
However, Chen Kai knew that his back injury was not insignificant. He might need some time to rest and recover when he returned. Thankfully, he had his martial arts skills and Inner Strength as support.
"I'll give myself some time, and then use my Inner Strength to heal myself. I should be able to recover fully before long."
