"Ah! You bastard! What exactly have you done to the old man!"
Unable to wait any longer outside, the Poison Scorpion forcefully pushed open the door and saw Jiang Mingquan coughing up necrotic tissue.

"Little Hero! Stop!"
It was at that moment that the familiar voice of Jiang Mingquan pulled Poison Scorpion back from the brink of collapse.
Tears already streaming down her face, Poison Scorpion stared blankly at Jiang Mingquan, who now had his eyes open on the hospital bed, too shocked to add up: "Old man, you're awake!"
