"I feel much better, but I'm still weak, as if my limbs can't move."
Xiaoxue said weakly.
Dirk Carter said, "From your pulse, things have stabilized for now, but you'll need to rest for three to five days and see how things go. During this time, you shouldn't go out, just stay here and rest. I'll arrange for someone to take care of you."
"But..."
Suddenly, Xiaoxue blushed.
She seemed like she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"But what?"
Dirk asked.
Xiaoxue shook her head and said, "Nothing."
"Alright, it's fine. If there's nothing urgent tonight, don't get up. Don't eat anything either. Tomorrow morning, someone will bring you food. She'll stay with you for a few days. I have to work, so I can only come by in the evenings."
"Okay!"
Xiaoxue nodded and said.
Dirk had just stood up, ready to leave.
Xiaoxue suddenly called out, "Dirk."
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
Dirk asked.
Xiaoxue opened her mouth, but the words got stuck in her throat.
