Chapter 17 is for you
Li Nuo took his cell phone and walked to a quiet place to make a call.
The call was connected almost immediately.
"elder brother?!"
"Yes, it's me." Li Nuo leaned against the wall and answered.
"Are you okay? That bastard Mo Chuan, did he threaten you? Stay away from him, that guy is not a good person by nature. He went to the hospital to take you away by himself, he must have no good intentions. So, is this kidnapping? Right, this is kidnapping......"
Hearing Li Yan's outburst, about to escalate this matter to a criminal case, Li Nuo quickly interrupted him: "Li Yan, I'm fine."
"But......"
"It's really okay. I'm in the restaurant now and will be back after dinner." Li Nuo soothed his anxious brother in a gentle voice, "I'm hungry too, so I came here with him. Don't worry."
After hearing him say that he was hungry, Li Yan calmed down. That's right, there is no one at home now.
To eat, Li Nuo still has to go out to eat after returning home.
"Well, brother, be careful about your diet and don't eat nuts."
"No, you should also eat well at noon."
"Yeah, I know. Damn it. You should have been home by now. It's all Mo Chuan's fault. That bastard skipped class and went to see you."
Li Nuo smiled bitterly and called out his name directly. Li Yan was really angry, "It seems like there are indeed a lot of things to do today."
Thinking of how Mo Chuan had asked if there were any nuts when he ordered, he said, "He still has some conscience, although not much... Anyway, I will really go back immediately after eating. After all, I am in my twenties, so please trust me."
After finally comforting Li Yan, Li Nuo hung up the phone, turned around and walked out of the corner.
"Ah." I accidentally bumped into someone.
"I'm sorry," Li Nuo apologized immediately after he stood up.
"Haha, sorry, did I scare you?" A familiar voice came over Li Nuo. He raised his head. It was Mo Chuan.
"I just came here because you haven't come back since you called for so long," he spread his hands, "The food is already here."
"Really?" Li Nuo narrowed his eyes. "Who is to blame for why I took so long to make the call?"
Mo Chuan was surprised. "Yeah, who is this?"
Staring at the shameless man in front of him, Li Nuo kept a calm face and walked around him and said: "I'm hungry."
When we returned to our seat, the waiter came over with a plate and some dishes were already on the table.
"The portions at these restaurants are small, so I ordered more. You can eat slowly."
It is true, the dishes tasted good and the portions were suitable.
Li Nuo enjoyed the food leisurely. Mo Chuan opposite him did not say anything. The atmosphere at the scene was quite peaceful.
As a result, Li Nuo ate a little too much without realizing it.
Li Nuo was sitting in his seat, holding his stomach with a distressed look on his face. He had eaten too much and felt a little uncomfortable.
Mo Chuan, who was gargling his mouth, looked at him and laughed.
"Do you want to eat more?"
Li Nuo shook his head and could not eat another grain of rice.
"Do you need some medicine to help digestion?"
Li Nuo shook his head, it hasn't come to that.
Feeling sorry for the failure of his diet control plan, Li Nuo tried hard to stand up and said, "Let's go back."
Mo Chuan walked over, stretched out his hand, grabbed his arm, and then pulled him out.
Li Nuo, who had no balance at all, was pulled by him and fell to the side.
Mo Chuan quickly stretched out his other hand to hold Li Nuo and bring him towards him to prevent him from falling.
Li Nuo's body turned as he was pulled by him, and his face hit Mo Chuan's chest directly.
“Ouch, it hurts…”
The faint murmurs dissipated into the air.
Not only did Li Nuo's nose hurt from the collision, but his heartbeat also accelerated because he almost fell.
If I had been wearing a watch at this moment, my heart rate would have exceeded 100.
Mo Chuan was also frightened, after all, he was the one who reached out to pull him first.
Moreover, she hugged him even tighter than before when she held his hand to hold the phone. He could touch the top of Li Nuo's head by just lowering his head slightly.
The restaurant should have been filled with the aroma of food, but he smelled a very pleasant smell coming from the person in his arms.
After coming out of the hospital, even his clothes should not have any fragrance, but at this moment, he could smell it.
A bitter sweet taste, which is my favorite fragrance.
He couldn't help but lower his head, trying to smell it more clearly.
However, Li Nuo's nose felt sore and he couldn't help shedding tears, but he struggled to take out his hand to cover his nose.
Mo Chuan was awakened by his struggling movements, and quickly let go of his hands, holding Li Nuo's cheek and lifting him up.
Seeing his tears, I was a little flustered, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you have a heartache? Or did you bump into something?"
Li Nuo covered his nose, shook his head, and said in a hushed voice: "It's nothing, it's just that my nose is sore, it's just a physiological reaction."
Mo Chuan breathed a sigh of relief and used his free hand to take away the hand that was covering Li Nuo's nose: "Let me see if you have a nosebleed?"
Linuo followed his action and let go of his hand.
"It's okay, just a little red."
Looking at Li Nuo's moist eyes, Mo Chuan's heart skipped a beat. He smelled that fragrance again, and the image of the man in a suit just now jumped into his mind again, making him want to reach out and hug him.
Trying hard to suppress this impulse, Mo Chuan asked, "How about going to the hospital?"
Li Nuo raised his hand to refuse: "No, I'm not injured."
He took the tissue from the table and wiped his tears. "It doesn't hurt anymore. I want to go back."
"I send you."
Taking the car keys, Mo Chuan followed him out of the restaurant.
In the car.
"Is it really not necessary to go to the hospital?"
"Do you think I'm a child too? I just bumped my nose and there's no blood. Why should I go to the hospital?"
Li Nuo expressed confusion.
"Well, because you look terrible."
Mo Chuan glanced at the person next to him, his face was still pale, and even in this hot summer, he felt like he was in the snow.
"This is natural. It didn't get so bad just now." Li Nuo closed his eyes and rested. "Besides, I just got out of the hospital and someone dragged me out shopping. It would be strange if I had a good face."
Mo Chuan laughed awkwardly twice and said nothing more.
Soon, they arrived at the neighborhood where Linuo lived.
"Well, this place is really run-down. It's hard to park. How about moving? A comfortable environment will be good for your health."
Looking at the dilapidated neighborhood in front of him, Mo Chuan suggested.
Li Nuo got out of the car and didn't respond to his suggestion: "Thank you for sending me back, and thank you for treating me to dinner."
He was about to leave, and Mo Chuan hurriedly got out of the car, "Wait."
He took out a pile of shopping bags from the back seat and followed.
Mo Chuan walked past Li Nuo with his long legs and opened the unit door in front of him.
The iron gate creaked. Li Nuo stopped and looked at him strangely.
Mo Chuan smiled and asked, "What's the matter? Are you tired and don't want to climb the stairs? If you don't mind, how about I carry you up?"
Li Nuo took a few steps back and looked at him warily.
Mo Chuan laughed and said, "Let's go. I'll take you home. This way, Li Yan won't have anything to complain about."
Originally, I wanted to give the things to Li Nuo and leave, but as he said, it was me who took him out shopping after he had just recovered from a serious illness, so I should take responsibility.
Mo Chuan took the things and walked up, "Let's go up."
Li Nuo quickly followed and noticed that Mo Chuan was holding several shopping bags. He blinked. Even if he left the suit behind, wouldn't there be only one bag?
"Why did you bring so many shopping bags down? Wouldn't it be better to leave them in the car?"
"Because it's yours."
"ha?"
Li Nuo was puzzled. "Suits are my only style, right?"
"The others, too, took your number."
Li Nuo recalled that when he was looking at bags and shoes, Mo Chuan would always ask if he liked them. At that time, he thought he wanted him to give his opinion, but he didn't expect that he would buy them for him.
The two of them walked up the stairs to the sixth floor. "If you live on the sixth floor, it would be very inconvenient to climb the stairs. Wouldn't you be very tired? There is no elevator here."
Li Nuo was distracted by his question, "No, just climb up slowly. Proper exercise is also necessary."
Hearing this, Mo Chuan slowed down his pace.
I just came here yesterday, and it's completely different from where I live.
Arriving at the door, Mo Chuan put down the shopping bag and thought, "It should be enough to just deliver it here."
"You really want to give these to me?"
Li Nuo hurriedly grabbed his sleeve and said, "I don't need those."
He didn't want to owe too many favors to others, so treating them to a meal was enough.
"That's the gift you gave me for going shopping with me today."
"But you treated me to dinner."
Li Nuo picked up the shopping bag and passed it over. "Too expensive things are a burden to me."
Mo Chuan didn't take it. He snatched the door key from his hand, opened the door, stuffed several shopping bags into the door, turned around and walked down the stairs.
Li Nuo hesitated for a while, then had to close the door and follow him downstairs.
When he went downstairs, Mo Chuan was already sitting in the car. He rolled down the passenger seat window and looked at Li Nuo.
Mo Chuan's eyes smiled like a crescent moon.
"Wear those clothes next time you see me."
"See you next time........"
"Of course," Mo Chuan said, as if it was natural. "And..."
He waved his hand, asked Li Nuo to come closer to the car window, and said to him very gently: "Next time we meet, don't call me uncle or uncle. Calling me by my name is better than these two."
After saying this, without waiting for Linuo to react, he rolled up the car window, started the car and drove away.
Only Li Nuo was left standing there with a confused look on his face.
Why did your attitude suddenly change so much?
Could it be... Li Nuo frowned. Is this the boiling frog in warm water? By being nice to himself, he can get closer to Li Yan?
Did the other party already have a vague crush on Li Yan? So he was using me?
Li Nuo felt that he had come into contact with the truth, and he cursed in his heart, "What a despicable guy."
Fortunately, he realized it. He would never let Li Yan encounter the situation in the novel again.
Well, when he comes back, tell him to stay away from Mo Chuan and Qin Xu.
The confident Li Nuo returned home as if his whole body was burning with fire, full of vigor.
When he saw the mess he had created yesterday, he suddenly came to his senses.
Well, in the morning, Li Yan should have come back to change clothes, but he didn’t say anything on the phone. Maybe he didn’t have enough time. He just tidied up a little and left a passage leading to the room.
Li Nuo looked at the clothes and shoes he had packed up to sell, then looked at the ones Mo Chuan had stuffed in, sighed, and really wanted to sell all of them together.
If I had known I would buy it for myself, I would not have played the dress-up game at the mall.
Moreover, Li Nuo took a glance at the LOGOs and saw that they were all luxury goods.
Li Nuo seemed to be thoughtful. Since he was from a completely different world from himself, it would be better not to have a close relationship with him.
He put these things aside and cleaned up the mess in his house.
