"What about Al? Did he move away from there?" Mark asked in anxiety .
Romano was still rubbing his neck . "If he did, why didn't he come here to us?"
Mark shrugged his shoulder . "Maybe he was scared . "
"That coward!" Romano cursed .
"I'm right here . " A weak, hoarse voice came from their left side .
They turned around and saw Kilimanjaro and Altan Yul together coming this way . Kilimanjaro was okay but Al was devastated .
Mark asked, "Are you alright?" He didn't know why Al was in such a state .
Romano moved a step away . "Waak! You smell blood!"
Al glared at them and said, "Next time, if you want to guard her, then do it by yourself . I'm not taking any part of that again in my life . "
They all saw the vicious red mark around his neck . They realized that their little girl lashed out her anger on Al . They felt sympathy for their comrade .

Mu Lan reached their hideout in two hours . Pedro was already waiting for her . He already heard about her situation . He stood up the moment he saw her .
"Look at you! Let me take care of your wounds . " He impatiently came forward to touch her .
"Take care of him first . " Mu Lan threw the antidote at him .
Pedro caught it and said, "He can wait . "
"I didn't suffer from the pain from nothing . Take care of him first . I'll be inside your room . " Mu Lan walked passed him .
She didn't want to show him her weakness but she didn't know that her face was deadly pale . But the moment he saw her, how could he not realize that she was close to break down?
Pedro took the antidote and injected it inside Mu Liang's body . In five minutes, Mu Liang calmed down . He didn't move anymore . He simply fell asleep .
"Someone has to clean his body . He is drenched in sweat . " Shintaro came inside the room .
"We can't touch him . Otherwise, if she recalls everything and finds out that we touched her man, we will lose our lives . " Pedro cleaned his hands with antibacterial hand sanitizer .
Shintaro scratched his head . "Will she remember anything? If this Mu boy wakes up and find her like this, won't he have a heart attack?"
"I believe in this boy . I only hope he won't be broken heartened seeing her with no memory . " Pedro quietly replied . "She will remember everything . All we need is patience . Have you checked on her?"
"She asked me to come here and look at this Mu boy's condition . She must have some lingering feelings for him . " Shintaro sighed . "This must be true love . "
"Let's go and see her injuries . " Pedro walked out of the room .
Both of them entered Pedro's room and found Mu Lan there . She already took off the leg bandage and was examining it .
"How's your shoulder?" Pedro saw her moving so swiftly that he thought that he mistook her shoulder was dislocated .
"I took care of it . It's nothing important . The bullet is still in my thigh . Take it out . " Mu Lan felt the bullet was stinging her thigh from the moment she opened her eyes . She bared the pain all along .
Pedro wore a mask and a pair of gloves while replying, "I'll take care of it . Do you want me to give you tranquilizer?"
"No need . My leg seems to be paralyzed . " Mu Lan said . She tiredly looked at him, "How's that guy?"
"He is alright . He will wake up in two days . You have soothing to worry about . " Pedro touched her injured leg . "Though you leg is paralyzed, you will still feel the pain . Be prepared . "

While Shintaro was impatiently waiting for Pedro to come out from his room, the others came back . They all seemed exhausted .
"You guys had a rough day . " Shintaro commented .
"Where is she?" Juan asked the moment he saw Shintaro .
"Pedro's room . He is taking out the bullet . " Saying that Shintaro covered his nose . "Al, take a bath . You stink!"
"Shut up!" Al walked in the corridor and went to his own room . The whole corridor smelt blood .
At that time, Pedro came out . "Oh, you guys are here . Are you guys injured?" Hearing from Shintaro that she lashed out on his comrades, he wasn't a little bit sad .
"We can take care of our necks . " Romano waved his hand . "How's little princess?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
"I took out the bullet and ran a blood test . The drug didn't have any effect on her . So, her present memory loss isn't because of the drug . It's psychological this time as well . I injected her elixir so that she doesn't feel any more pain . She crossed her limit . Before I finished the operation, she fainted and I think she won't wake up in twelve hours . In the meantime, her body will heal . " Pedro looked at Carlo . "Prepared a feast . "
Carlo gazed passed Pedro and saw Mu Lan's sleeping face . She looked completely different from what she was in Egypt . Then, he rubbed his neck while answered, "Let me sleep for a while . " He went back to him room as well . Mark and Shintaro left with him .
Only Juan and Pedro were left in the corridor . "How's the Mu boy?"
"He will live . He will wake up in two days . Her blood kept him alive this long . " Pedro answered .
"Will she recover her memory before he wakes up?" Juan couldn't help but ask .
"…It will depend on her entirely . " Pedro sighed .
"It's hard for everyone . " Juan patted Pedro's shoulder .
"Go and take some rest . " Pedro said .
"I will . You too . " Juan left .

The next day, when Mu Lan woke up, she was completely healed . She opened her eyes and found herself in Pedro's bed . While shew as thinking how she ended up here, she recalled what happened previously . She looked down at her right leg and found out that there was no scar let alone any injury .
'Pedro must've used elixir again . ' She thought .
Stroking her head, she went to the washroom and took out a spear toothbrush and brushed her teeth . After taking a bath, she came out wearing Pedro's bathrobe . After searching for a dress to wear, she got a blue shirt and wore it before going out of the room .
