But Dugu Xiaojin had just risen to his feet when he felt a stabbing pain in his back.
Feng Bailing quickly pressed Dugu Xiaojin down.
"Xiaojin, don't move around, you've just had surgery."
It was then Dugu Xiaojin realized, belatedly, that he was seriously injured; he had been struck by the Red Scorpion Queen.
Baishan!
As soon as Dugu Xiaojin thought of Baishan, he saw Baishan lying beside the operating table.
Baishan waved his tail at Dugu Xiaojin.
Seeing that Baishan was also unharmed, Dugu Xiaojin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Good, both the Queen Mother and Baishan were safe.
"Xiaojin, you must not be so impulsive next time."
Feng Bailing, with a mix of heartache and affection, stroked Dugu Xiaojin's cheeks. Indeed, he was her son, brave, handsome, and loyal.
The more Feng Bailing looked at Dugu Xiaojin, the brighter the glow of motherly love in her eyes became.
