Chapter 113 Come and take my child back
early morning.
Li Yi had a good sleep and walked into the ward refreshed, but saw Anubis lying on the bed looking worse than yesterday.
He wanted to ask his brother what he did last night that made him look so haggard, but as soon as he opened his mouth to utter the initial consonant of a word, he was glared at by Anubis and was swallowed back.
Anubis put his index finger to his lips, pointed at Qiao Suisui who was sleeping next to him, and gave him a warning look.
Li Yi twisted his hands and feet, closed the door secretly, walked back quietly, and looked at Anubis with his arms folded.
Anubis frowned and asked with his eyes: What are you doing?
Li Yilian gestured and lip-synced: There's something wrong with you, there's something wrong with you.
Anubis ignored him.
Li Yi continued to gesture: "The last time I saw an expression like this was on my cousin's father's second wife, when he decided to seal his heart and love and become a monk. But why do you have the look of a sage who has seen through the world?"
This paragraph of gestures was too long. Anubis lost his patience when he saw him gesture about his cousin's father's second wife, so he read it without replying.
Then no matter how Li Yi tried to get his attention, Anubis just half-closed his eyes listlessly. Finally, he was annoyed by him and closed his eyes and turned over.
Li Yi was a restless person. Seeing that Bi ignored him, he turned to look for Qiao. At this moment, he took out a marker from somewhere, showed an evil grin, and wanted to draw a turtle on her face.
After just a few strokes, Qiao Suisui felt an itch on her face and frowned slightly. Li Yi covered his mouth and couldn't help but let out a "hehe" sound. Anubis heard it and turned around. Seeing him holding the brush, he immediately sat up in bed, got out of bed, and grabbed the brush, the whole action in one go.
"Are you really injured or not? How come you got injured so quickly?" Li Yi blurted out. His voice was extremely abrupt in the quiet room. He covered his mouth after he finished speaking.
Anubis frowned fiercely, grabbed his arm and tried to drag him out. At the same time, Qiao Susu was woken up. She opened her hazy eyes and saw the two people "pulling and tugging" above her head.
"Morning, what are you doing?"
She rubbed her eyes, her expression a bit dazed, her hair slightly disheveled, and she looked sleepy and adorable, completely different from her usual self. Coupled with Li Yi's unfinished tortoise, they both stared at her in stunned silence. Anubis quickly averted his gaze, while Li Yi burst into laughter.
"Hahahahaha, Qiao, if your beast form is a turtle, I will definitely raise you."
Qiao Susu:?
Why are you cursing so vulgarly so early in the morning?
Anubis wordlessly took out a handkerchief that he had wrung out, handed it to her, and said, "Wipe it."
Qiao Susu took it with a blink, and looked at it in front of a reflective kettle. She found that her face was covered with blood, and immediately understood why they reacted that way.
"Okay, Li Yi, I even gave up Liu Bei's position to you."
Li Yi asked, "Who is Liu Bei?"
Anubis said, "A big brother."
Qiao Sui Sui put her handkerchief on the table and said to Li Yi, "I want to tell your instructor that I wrote the last assignment for you."
"Brother, you are my brother, please don't, please." Li handed her a brush, squatted in front of her, lifted her bangs with his hands, raised his face and said: "Let you draw it back, let's make peace."
Qiao Suisui was stifling laughter, waiting for just that. Without hesitation, she drew an inverted oval in each of his eye sockets, then filled the insides completely with black. When Li Yi opened his eyes, he looked like a national treasure. Anubis was also amused by his appearance, and the three of them erupted in laughter, mostly Li Yi and Qiao Suisui, while Anubis watched them and laughed.
At this time, the door of the ward was opened. Luka paused when he saw the scene in front of him, and then when he saw Qiao Susu laughing happily, his facial features softened visibly.
The man stood outside the door and did not come in directly. Instead, he said, "Sorry to bother you, I want to talk to Joe."
Li Yi, with his panda eyes, greeted them hurriedly: "Oh, please come in, please come in. My name is Li Yi, Qiao's classmate."
Anubis also nodded to Luka and introduced himself briefly: "Bi."
His eyes moved back and forth between the man and Qiao Susu without any expression.
Qiao Suisui smiled and trotted over to Luka, pulling his arm in. Her tone was filled with the eagerness of a child showing off to an adult: "Luka, these are my friends I told you about."
Then she introduced the other two: "This is Colonel Scorsese."
Luka extended his hand and shook hands with both Reiichi and Hibiki, greeting them formally. His palms were firm, giving a sense of absolute control, and his handshake was firm but not overly forceful, instantly creating a trustworthy impression.
Li Yi's hands were shaking with excitement. He held his own hands as if they were treasures. "Help! I won't wash my hands anymore. I actually shook the hand of the Imperial Sword! Dad! Your son has made it!"
Qiao Susu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Good job, Qiao, you're amazing. The Sword of Empire is all your connections." After saying that, Li Yi punched Qiao Susu's shoulder, which was a joking gesture between brothers. Luka, who was standing aside, had a cold look in his eyes instantly, but didn't say anything.
"Yeah, so don't bother me anymore in the future." Qiao Susu raised her eyebrows at Li Yi, with a fearless look on her face as if 'I have someone to protect me'.
Anubis stood quietly aside with a calm expression.
While Luka was looking at him, he was also looking at Luka.
The light golden eyes became crystal clear in the sunlight. The tall man standing behind her, without words, was like a mountain, the source of her sense of security.
Anubis felt the closeness between him and Joe, unlike any other male he had ever met. She was cautious with Zongfang, relaxed but with a strong sense of boundaries with Lan Ze, but only with this man did she feel relaxed and confident, her whole being agile.
"Colonel Scorsese, what do you want to see Joe about?" Li Yi asked.
Luka thought for a moment, then curled his lips and said, "Come and pick up my child."
"Ah? Isn't Joe's last name Libery? What's the matter? Is he a relative of yours?"
Li Yi was so confused that he looked back at Bi in surprise, but found that there was no change in his expression, neither surprise nor curiosity.
Qiao Susu quickly waved her hands and explained: "I am indeed just a distant member of the Liberi family. Luka is me and me." She glanced at Luka hesitantly, and saw that the man was waiting leisurely and had no intention of taking the initiative to help her out. It seemed that he also wanted to hear her answer.
".My brother's best friend since childhood!"
"Oh~~~Then it's similar to the relationship between my cousin's father and his second wife!" Li Yi understood.
She laughed dryly and nodded: "Yes, yes." Then she sighed, thinking that the world cannot do without a sunny idiot like Li Yi.
Finally, Qiao Sui Sui said goodbye to the two of them, promising to find time to come and see them. The three of them couldn't help but feel sad when they thought they would never see each other again at school, and even the usually optimistic Li Yi felt a little uncomfortable.
After leaving the hospital, Luka, who had been keeping his distance from Qiao Suisui, carried her directly onto the airship. He took out a damp cotton cloth and gently wiped her face bit by bit, asking as he wiped, "Why are you acting like a little cat again?"
