With no one else in the Nie family besides Nie Han to care for her, if the doctor delays even slightly, she might die from an allergic reaction.
This was a silent contest. Chen Rou escaped danger, but she greatly admired the mastermind behind it all. He or she did it so discreetly, leaving no trace, making it a perfect crime.
Of course, although Chen Rou saw everything, she would not make a fuss until Nie Zhao was out of danger and woke up. She would only secretly collect evidence, waiting for Nie Zhao to be out of danger so that she could find out the mastermind behind it all. Then, the case she was forced to take on as soon as she opened her eyes in this world could be perfectly closed.
The clock ticked away, and Chen Rou, too sleepy, couldn't help but doze off.
She felt somewhat lost and confused about her future. Once Nie Zhao survived the danger and exposed the mastermind behind it all, her mission in the Nie family would be complete. But what would happen after that? If she couldn't return to the future, what should she do? Go back to the mainland, go back to the army, and continue serving?
However, the current policy of the mainland military is not to accept foreign military personnel. Besides, she is almost 23 years old and has already passed the age for enlistment. So what should she do? Take the civil service exam and become a police officer in the Hong Kong police force to continue her career as a special police officer.
While considering all these things, she never thought of staying in the Nie family as the matriarch or a wealthy housewife.
After all, not to mention that Nie Zhao couldn't accept her being so strong and fierce, Chen Rou, who had never been married or had children in her previous life, never thought of getting married and becoming an appendage of any man.
As she was thinking with her eyes closed, she heard a gust of wind from the side, immediately opened her eyes, and reached out her hand.
It was Nie Jiayu who arrived, Nie Jiayu whose head had been beaten into a pig's head by Chen Rou.
Chen Rou thought he still wanted to go against her, and Nie Zhao needed an extremely quiet environment right now, so she didn't hold back and prepared to punch this chuunibyou fool again, giving him a concussion and sending him to the neurology department.
But before she could even throw her fist halfway, Nie Jiayu raised his hands and knelt down in front of all the bodyguards. Then, just as Chen Rou thought he was going to attack her lower body and was about to kick him, he raised his hands again and lunged forward, whispering, "Miss Chen, to be honest, did you take a crash course at TVB and learn kung fu from Uncle Jinbao and Brother Along?"
Everyone in Hong Kong knows that TVB's crash course is a place where TVB specifically trains action stars.
Needless to say, Uncle Jinbao and Brother Along were exemplary figures in Hong Kong action films of the 1990s, known for their real fighting and dedication. Not only in Hong Kong, but throughout Southeast Asia, they were kung fu idols worshipped by young people, and Nie Jiayu was no exception.
He thought that Chen Rou's sudden ability to fight so well, defeating him with every move, was because she had attended a crash course in kung fu at TVB and received personal instruction from a senior figure. He thought she had come to ask her for kung fu skills.
Chen Rou had served in the army and had trained new recruits for many years. She could spot a simpleton like Nie Jiayu almost instantly. She understood his intention: "You want to learn a few kung fu moves from me?"
He added, "I don't have time, go find your bodyguard."
When Nie Jiayu's father, Nie Zhen, was alive, he was said to be the most refined and elegant young master of a wealthy family in Hong Kong. However, apart from being fair-skinned and cultured, Nie Jiayu did not inherit any of his father's good qualities in terms of manners and etiquette.
He whispered, "The one the bodyguard taught is too clumsy, and it takes too much effort. What I need is a killer move, a sure-kill technique!"
Chen Rou smiled, but didn't reply to him right away. Instead, she looked at the bodyguards in the corridor and deliberately said, "It seems that the Nie family's bodyguards aren't very good. They can't even teach our young master Jiayu."
Nie Jiayu said foolishly, "They're just a bunch of blockhead idiots. Otherwise, how could my uncle have been kidnapped? Miss Chen, you're different. You've learned some special skills. Please teach me."
It is said that he is a young master from a wealthy family. If he really wanted to learn kung fu, all twenty bodyguards in his family would be willing to teach him. But kung fu is not just fancy moves. The most important foundation is to practice the horse stance, to train punching power, arm strength and leg strength. Only when you can master the power of your whole body will you have ninety percent of the kung fu. The remaining ten percent is the technique.
Of course, rich young masters are too lazy to endure hardship. Even when practicing kung fu, they want to kill with one move and learn ultimate techniques.
Although the bodyguards thought the young master was too stupid, they were paid to do so. They didn't want to show it, so they just watched Nie Jiayu spout nonsense and ignored him, lowering their heads one by one.
Nie Jiayu was completely oblivious, because Chen Rou was hesitant to agree. So he pointed to his nose and said, "Miss Chen, my nose is fractured and it hurts terribly. The doctor gave me a nerve block injection so I could get up. Teach me the trick you used to hit me earlier, and I won't tell on my uncle when he wakes up, okay?"
Seeing Chen Rou cross her arms, glancing upwards with a half-smile, Nie Jiayu assumed she was holding back her secret technique and refused to teach him. He further threatened, "My uncle dotes on me. If he knew you beat me up like this, he would be furious when he woke up. Miss Chen, we're family now, you don't want to ruin our relationship, right?"
Nie Han was afraid that an insider might drug the food, so she didn't dare call her bodyguards. She had driven out to the tea restaurant across the street to get takeout, and was just returning.
She certainly knew her younger brother well. She knew that although he was smart, he was somewhat uneducated and lazy because he was not disciplined enough. In the words of the Hong Kong media, he was a spoiled brat.
Sneaking closer, Nie Han suddenly grabbed Nie Jiayu's ear and said, "Go home!"
When Nie Jiayu's ear was pulled, he naturally cried out in pain first, then asked, "Why?!"
