Tang Wan didn’t think much after the reply, just taking it to be a rich and powerful fan’s inquiries. After exiting Weibo, he just wanted to get out of bed.
Zong He, who had just finished showering, quickly came over and pushed Tang Wan back down. “Be good and lie down, you haven’t recovered yet.”
Tang Wan was speechless, “But I need to use the restroom.”
Only then did Zong He let him go. He thought for a moment and then quickly added, “Come back quickly.”
Tang Wan sat up and said helplessly, “I just awakened an unusual ability and my spiritual strength is unstable. I’m not crippled, what are you so worried for?”
Zong He’s expression showed that he was very worried.
The corners of Tang Wan’s lips hooked up, and he couldn’t help but smile. Actually, he only needed to take medicine every day. Reportedly, this type of awakening, treatment wouldn’t typically be required. They would be able to support themselves. The medicine he took were to stabilize his spiritual strength and clear out the residual poisons; the military doctor already said that he was alright. Zong He wasn’t assured and had been watching over him all this time, treating him as a seriously ill patient and not letting him get up from the bed even though he was fine.
After going to the restroom and showering, but before Tang Wan had the time to change into his clothes, Lin Bo came to the door with a smile and knocked. When Tang Wan saw what he held in his hand, he just wanted to cry.
Lin Bo placed the medicine on the table. “Do you want to take it yourself, or should I feed it to you?”
Tang Was was resigned to his fate. “I can take it myself. Oh, Zong He’s spiritual strength is also unstable. Why doesn’t he need to take medicine?”
Lin Bo laughed and explained, “The Marshal’s condition is more serious. He needs to go to the treatment room.”
Tang Wan sighed, took the medicine, and looked at Zong He. “Then you should cooperate with the treatment and recover earlier. Then you’ll see how painful it is to take the medicine.”
Tang Wan furrowed his eyebrows and gulped down the medicine. Then he looked at Zong He, who had been watching him attentively. Tang Wan was in a bad mood, “I really can’t swallow any more. I didn’t secretly throw it away, why are you looking at me with those watchful eyes for?”
The corners of Zong He’s lips twitched, and, in a good mood, said: “Seeing you look ugly.”
Tang Wan’s lips thinned, his tongue merciless, “You’re ugly, out of your whole family, you’re the ugliest.”
Zong He was silent, and the atmosphere was awkward. Early in the morning, the couple said to the other that they were ugly, yet no one else could do it.
Lin Bo ‘ai-ya’d’ and said especially kindly to Tang Wan: “He just wants to say that you look good. He just wanted to look, look until he can’t free himself and doesn’t want to pull away.” Saying this, Lin Bo sighed and said with a weary heart: “Do you understand the king of beasts’ aloofness?”
Zong He hummed, turned his head, and left, embarrassed. He couldn’t bear to hear any more, but didn’t want to block it either.
Tang Wan chuckled and smiled, “Other families’ cats are cute when they’re proud and charming, this Marshal,” He saw Zong He standing behind the door and shook his head in a distaining way: “What aloofness? It would just be going through hell for the sake of face, not the least bit cute.”
However, this big cat’s fighting strength was frightening and with a temper fiercer than a kitten’s somehow made him feel secure.
Perhaps only he could handle Zong He, showing his softer side every time and Zong He didn’t plot back against him at all, taking him at his word. Thinking of this, Tang Wan’s heart felt warm and unexpectedly a little sweet!
Tang Wan noticed that the other was tensed and couldn’t help but tease him: “He’s also very good looking, otherwise I would have divorced him.”
Zong He angrily turned his head, he still dared to mention divorce?!
Tang Wan laughed and said, “I’m just teasing, it’s not easy to find such a good cat. Whoever would leave would be a fool.”
Only then did Zong He’s face soften. As long as he knew, it was fine.

After half a month’s rest, Tang Wan was resurrected, full of blood. First, he wanted to see his own power. Once he was reborn, he had his own unusual ability, like a super-Saiyan. The military doctor had said that he had a healing ability and that this type of ability was very rare. Most became doctors. As he had been an ability-less person, he didn’t know how to use it. He had to let himself slowly probe around.
Tang Wan wandered around in the garden in the morning, looking for creatures he could experiment on with his healing ability. He felt that he could even cure a crippled leg.
In the trees, a pair of half-grown leopards lay basking in the sun, leisurely wagging their tails and watching Tang Wan wander around. The pair looked at each other and leapt down from the tree. In a few leaps, they were in front of Tang Wan, startling him so much that he jumped back: Fuck! Leopards!
One of the leopards happily asked: “Fūrén, guess who I am?”
Tang Wan blinked and reacted. These two were beastmen. He cocked his head and looked them up and down. The left one’s gaze was gentle, calm, and collected. The right’s gaze was spirited, playfully wagging his tail. Tang Wan laughed and tentatively reached out, putting one hand on each head, gently rubbing, “You are Jinen, and you are Jinze.”
Jinze pawed at his brother, the two instantly tussling into a ball. After punching and kicking at each other, they quickly separated, each standing on Tang Wan’s left and right side. The two brothers had the same expression and even the same movements. The one on the left calmly asked: “You guess again. Who is Qi Jinen and who is Qi Jinze?”
Tang Wan couldn’t help but laugh, “Whoever asked is Qi Jinze.”
Qi Jinze jumped excitedly a few times and circled around Tang Wan in admiration. “You’re the first one to get it right on the first try!”
Tang Wan smiled lightly and rubbed their heads, good-naturedly saying: “That’s because you two have different personalities.”
Qi Jinen brushed his brother aside with his tail, not letting him talk excessively. He politely asked Tang Wan: “Are you looking for something? Do you need any help?”
“Ah, I’m looking for an injured bug or something to see if my healing ability works.”
The older leopard brother was stunned by Tang Wan’s mentality. He really was worthy of being the Marshal’s Fūrén, his way of thinking was different from normal people’s.
The younger leopard brother didn’t think like his older brother, already helping Tang Wan dig holes. “You just want to find an injured bug? Let me help you find it!”
While the older brother looked calmly from the side, neither speaking nor helping, watching his brother’s four paws. His front paws were digging through the earth and his rear paws were pushing out, the dust flying around. In the blink of an eye, a pit had been dug but unfortunately, except for a few grass roots and rocks, nothing was scraped out. Qi Jinen gagged in disgust and gracefully swished out.
Soon after, Tang Wan saw a reluctant Zong He being pulled over by a leopard with a corner of his coat in his mouth.
Seeing that Tang Wan was in the garden, Zong He raised his eyebrows, not needing Qi Jinen to drag him over anymore, walking over himself. Looking at the half-meter wide pits surrounding Tang Wan and Qi Jinze, Zong He examined them, eyes full of interest. He suddenly raised his foot and kicked the little leopard’s butt into one of the pits, like he was kicking trash. The leopard was buried underneath a bit of earth.
Tang Wan burst out laughing, his heart really was black!
Qi Jinze climbed up from the pit with a dull face and wiped his mouth with his paws. There was dirt on his face!
Zong He avoided it and pulled Tang Wan out of the way, “Dirty!”
The leopard shook off the dirt and glared at his brother, “Who kicked me?”
Qi Jinen was too lazy to pay attention to him. He also stepped back for fear of the flying dust dirtying his clean and smooth fur.
Qi Jinze looked at this and looked at that, his eyes still gravitating towards his brother, suspecting it of being his brother’s work.
Tang Wan only wanted to say: save the children, this IQ can only transplant rice seedlings!
It was only later that Tang Wan learned that Qi Jinze wasn’t as absent-minded as he seemed on the surface. This child had many schemes in his heart, he was just disinclined to cause trouble at him, laughing carefree everyday. He was as lively as a little monkey. In fact, Zong He had always wanted him to enter the army’s spy vanguard force after he graduated. The boy was driven, was full of courage and insight, and tenacious like a dagger.
And Qi Jinen, was fit to be a commander. He was steady and had the big picture. Zong He wanted him to be the assistant to the Chief of Staff of the Imperial Army Headquarters after graduating from the military academy, that is, his right-hand man Gu Yankai’s assistant. These two children who had grown up beside him were orphans that had been left behind by an old comrade and he raised his children as if they were his own nephews.
At the moment, Qi Jinen didn’t want to fight his younger brother because he was afraid that the other would rub the dirt all over himself. He went to find a perfect shelter for himself. Standing behind Tang Wan, he explained why he had brought Zong He in, “If you want to use your ability, you don’t need to find anyone else. The Marshal is already wounded. Injured spiritual strength can be healed as well.”
Tang Wan looked at Zong He, surprised. “It would be fine to find and take turns with a person who can heal you?”
Then Tang Wan noticed the big cat’s gaze, as if saying: With your IQ, you can’t transplant rice seedlings!
Tang Wan covered his chest, his heart stuffed. The future’s people understood a lot, this old resurrected antique couldn’t afford to offend them!
Qi Jinen explained: “The healing ability is an ability that stimulates human potential and promote healing. It can’t be treated all at once, otherwise the patient won’t be able to endure it; each day, at most, it can only be two……”
Before Qi Jinen could utter “hours”, Zong He suddenly reached out and smacked the leopard’s head, just like a big cat smacking a small cat, causing a ‘beng’ sound. “Go and play at the side, don’t cause trouble while the adults are talking!”
The little leopard went away with a face full of grievance. Even Qi Jinze sympathized with his brother. “What did you say that you weren’t supposed to say?”
Qi Jinen said profoundly: “The Marshal’s heart is a needle at the bottom of the sea.”
“Perhaps this is a man, the adults’ world is really complex!”
“Especially married men.”
Zong He’s ears twitched and with a turn of his head, the two ridiculing brothers instantly felt the danger and simultaneously grew legs and rushed away madly. In the blink of an eye, they were gone.
Zong He turned to Tang Wan and asked, “Do you want to use your ability to heal the pits back to their original state?”
Tang Wan rolled his eyes and asked angrily: “Do you think that I’m a fool? I have nothing to do so I dig pits?”
Zong He raised his eyebrows and asked, unruffled: “Then what are you digging pits for?”
“I just don’t know how to use it, and only wanted to catch a crippled insect so I can treat it!” Before Tang Wan’s words were finished, Zong He’s expression had changed. Tang Wan immediately reacted. There was some ambiguity in his words. It seemed that Zong He had come to replace the insects. Tang Wan quickly corrected, “Of course, the insects aren’t as ferocious as you.” After that, Tang Wan couldn’t help but cover his face, happy, “I’m sorry, my mouth is loose.”
Zong He watched his laugh, different from the past, as if he wasn’t as distant. Zong He’s mood lifted and he was reluctant to be serious with Tang Wan. He generously forgave him and was perfectly happy to serve as Tang Wan’s guinea pig. “Feel around a bit, there’s a portion of spiritual strength in your mind. If it comes out, it’s good. Healing abilities won’t cause harm. Try it on me.”
Tang Wan was confused, “What strength? You’re talking too abstractly.”
Zong He tsk’d. It took effort to explain. “Normally, when a person feels it, they can use it. How would I know what form it takes?”
Tang Wan’s heart was crushed. Sorry, he had disgraced Earth’s people again!
Zong He lifted up his hand and suddenly, a black mass appeared in his palm. He said solemnly, “Like this. It comes out with a wave.”
Tang Wan was shocked, his nerves quickly stretched. This thing was small, but the distortion in the atmosphere was visible to the naked eye. “This, what is this thing?!”
Zong He held the black ball in his hand out to Tang Wan, patiently explaining, “It has the power to swallow anything, like a black hole.”
Tang Wan nervously took a step backward, fearing that he would be touched, but unexpectedly, there was an excavated pit right behind him. It didn’t matter that he was going backward, Tang Wan’s body was weightless and he fell back entirely. There was only one thought in his mind: I’m finished! If he didn’t break a bone, then he’d tear a muscle. He hadn’t found a crippled insect, and yet he became crippled himself!
Zong He had sharp eyes and agile hands, grabbing him and tightly pulling him into his arms. He bowed his head and grumpily asked Tang Wan, who had still yet to react: “How could you be so foolish? It’s just a small pit, ten meters is just a matter of using the strength in your legs!”
Tang Wan was stunned, but then struggled to return to his mind and his heart was beating hard again. “I’m sorry, I’m too much of a cripple. I can’t use my legs to jump across a distance of ten meters.” Tang Wan huffed and pushed the person who was clinging to him away, his heart out of sorts. It was a pity that Tang Wan couldn’t push him anywhere.
Zong He’s face softened. “Fine then, this also lets me have a deeper understanding of you, cripple.”
Tang Was frustrated and pressed his lips together. Met with such avoidance, his heart was especially unhappy.
At this time, Zong He shouted at the soldiers nearby, “In the future, pits aren’t allowed here, inspect the entire area; fill them in. In the garden where it is necessary to have pits, put up a fence.”
Tang Wan was surprised for a while, then suddenly understood why Zong He had suddenly used such a voice. This big cat was afraid that he wouldn’t be honestly expressing himself. After Tang Wan thought and understood it, he laughed, “No need to go so far, I’m not such a cripple.”
After such a long time, with a person so sincere to him, even if his heart was a stone, it would be warmed up, let along Tang Wan, who had been so deprived of affection. Suddenly, he had an idea in his mind. He wanted to see Zong He quickly recover and see him in a military uniform, invincible and ever victorious.
At this time, Tang Wan’s palms contained a swirling white light. With his thoughts, it became brighter and brighter. Tang Wan looked at his fingertips, eyes bright, “I seem to know how to use it.”
“Oh?” Zong He narrowed his eyes and said with a serious face. “That’s very good, I haven’t gotten any treatment today. The doctor doesn’t have to come today.”
Tang Wan stared at him with wide eyes. “You mean……” Tang Wan pointed at his own nose, only wanting to ask if he was serious. A king depending on this little bronze-level soldier for treatment? You’re sure there would be results?
Zong He solemnly said, “I’m depending on you!”
In the distance, the twins were lounging in the trees, looking at the two people who had been huddled together without letting the other go. The younger brother asked, puzzled, “Brother, brother, brother, what are they talking about? The Marshal’s expression is so serious!”
Lin Bo passed by slowly and without raising his head, said, “Behaving like a rogue, a deadpan, serious rogue, the type best at leaving people’s hearts defenseless.”
The leopard brothers are so cute!
And Tang Wan activating his ability with the power of love (*≧▽≦)ノシ))
