Chapter 61 Mo Chuan Returns

After a few days of silence, Zhang Wanhui contacted Li Nuo again, still in the same coffee shop, and he sat near the window.

"You didn't bring that person with you this time." He glanced behind Li Nuo and didn't see Fang Che following him.

"He is just following me temporarily, he is not my hired servant."

Fang Che resigned yesterday. Li Nuo understood that Qin Xu must have called him back. He had said before that someone was following him. He looked up at Zhang Wanhui.

Well, the stalker is right in front of us.

But the other party probably doesn't have this awareness.

"What have you been doing lately?"

Zhang Wanhui did not talk about the past, but just started chatting.

"I've been learning editing recently, and I've been thinking about taking on commissions myself."

"......." Zhang Wanhui seemed very surprised, "You...work? Why do you suddenly do this? Anyway, Li Yan is supporting you, why don't you just continue to have fun? If he doesn't give you money, you can come to my place and I will take care of you."

Li Nuo took a sip of water and looked at him strangely, "I am the older brother, why should I rely on Li Yan for support?"

"There are many people who rely on their families to support themselves." Zhang Wanhui said nonchalantly.

Li Nuo frowned, "I don't know what I was like before, but now I have a very good relationship with Li Yan."

"Besides, I've already told you that the person who owes the debt is my dad, and the sale of the house has nothing to do with Li Yan. I didn't tell the truth before."

Zhang Wanhui was furious, "You were fooled by him!"

Li Nuo was speechless for a moment at this kind of person who only believed in his own ideas. This was written in the novel, how could someone like him who had read the original work be fooled?

"Anyway, I'm on Li Yan's side now, so you don't have to say anything more." Li Nuo stretched out his hand to reject his further persuasion.

Zhang Wanhui sighed in frustration.

However, he glanced at Li Nuo sitting opposite him.

"If he has lost his memory, all we need to do is reestablish contact. If I complete the tasks he has asked me to do, he may come to me on his own initiative."

Having made up his mind, Zhang Wanhui waved goodbye to Li Nuo and left the coffee shop.

...........

"Do you have to work overtime today?"

"I'm sorry, brother. I've been a little busy lately." Li Yan apologized on the other end of the phone.

In the past few days, the company started a new project. Coincidentally, Li Nuo's health has improved a lot and he doesn't need much care. Li Yan, who had not worked overtime for nearly two months, couldn't escape this time and started to get busy.

"There's nothing to be sorry about. You have to eat well even if you work overtime. I will eat well too."

"Uh-huh."

"Li Nuo! Let's go out and play after we're done!"

Secretary Yang's loud voice came from the phone, and Li Nuo smiled and agreed: "Okay!"

Secretary Yang also came to see him when he was hospitalized before.

"Don't forget to take your medicine. I'm hanging up now."

"Well, you've worked hard."

"I will be back very late at night. If you are sleepy, go to bed first."

These days, Li Yan often works until eleven or twelve o'clock before coming back home. Li Nuo would occasionally send messages to Qin Xu, but he was too busy at work and rarely replied.

Of course, the person they contacted most often was Mo Chuan. Although he was abroad and had a busy job, he would chat with Li Nuo almost every day and sometimes even send some photos of the scenery.

I thought that maybe the phone would ring at this time. Just as I was thinking about it, my cell phone started vibrating.

Eh? It's actually a video chat.

He pressed the button, and Mo Chuan's face appeared on the screen with a smile on his face.

"I wanted to see you so badly that I called you via video. Is that okay?"

"It doesn't matter."

"Where are you now? Have you eaten?"

"At home. I haven't eaten yet. I just finished a phone call with Li Yan."

"Oh, it's about this time over there," Mo Chuan waved his phone around, "It's already past eight o'clock over here. Look, the night view outside is still pretty beautiful."

He turned the camera so that Linuo could look at the scenery outside the hotel's upper floor window.

"Wow, it's true. Take a picture and show it to me." Li Nuo said excitedly.

Mo Chuan then smiled with a look of success, "If I send it to you, you have to give me a photo of yourself."

"Why--"

"Why? Don't want to?"

"I've never taken any photos." Li Nuo was a little embarrassed.

"How come you don't have it? It's the photo of your work ID. Didn't Secretary Yang give it to you?"

Li Nuo thought about it and seemed to have really sent it, "Is this enough?"

"Yes, sure."

Li Nuo sent the photos over, and Mo Chuan also sent photos of the night view.

"That's it. I won't disturb you from eating."

"Well, Brother Mo should also have a good rest."

After hanging up the phone, Mo Chuan looked at the photo sent by Li Nuo and immediately set it as the screen saver.

“I should have taken more pictures.”

He muttered to himself.

I've been relying on kisses on the cheeks to get through a month, but now I realize that pressure doesn't work at all.

Unlike Qin Xu who rarely looks at his phone when he is busy, Mo Chuan will never forget to keep in touch with Li Nuo. Even when he is very busy and tired, he will still send messages to them.

He tapped the photos on his phone, sincerely hoping that the remaining few days would pass quickly so that he could return home.

Even though he was here, Liu Ming would send him the latest news about Li Nuo.

"I heard that some trash was approaching him," Mo Chuan gritted his teeth. A lot of things happened when he was not around.

I clearly don't have confidence yet, but then old acquaintances show up again.

"It would be even better if there was a group photo." Mo Chuan sighed. Liu Ming would also send him photos, but they were all taken from a candid angle.

"You look well-nourished." He stared at Linuo's cheeks which had grown a little fleshy. When he was in the hospital, he was so thin that his cheeks had become sunken. He still needed to take care of himself, and it would be better if he could gain some weight.

"But today's video call was great. I should have known it would be like this from the beginning."

Seeing Li Nuo’s smile in person during this video made him want to go back even faster.

I'm not here, and I guess no one will send him flowers. How can this be? Even though Li Nuo keeps complaining about the waste, he seems to like flowers very much.

...........

Zhang Wanhui comes to see Li Nuo almost every two days, including today. From conversations with him during this period, Li Nuo gradually understands how the original owner lived.

Simply put, in front of Zhang Wanhui, the original owner portrayed herself as a victim. Li Nuo thought that the original owner might have some paranoia. Of course, this was not just the original owner's problem.

"I think you're partly responsible."

"What?"

"You instigated it, didn't you?"

The original owner did not have the extravagant hobby of buying shoes at first. He only bought them at the suggestion of Zhang Wanhui.

In addition, it was Zhang Wanhui who asked the original owner to download so many chat software and randomly raise fish.

It really is like what he said, “bad company.”

Humans are social animals and are easily influenced by the people around them. The original owner was influenced by Zhang Wanhui and his actions became more and more extreme.

What is this, every villain has his own friends? And then, villains plus villains become the big villain?

Well, this has nothing to do with the cannon fodder villain who died midway through the original owner’s novel.

"Do you still have those shoes you bought before? They are more expensive now, so you can sell them. Do you want to sell them?"

Li Nuo blinked. It turned out that the original owner was really a shoe seller. That’s what he said.

But I don’t understand these things. I didn’t see how many pairs he sold among so many shoes.

Zhang Wanhui looked at him with a clueless look and took out his phone and pushed it to him, "This is it."

"Ah.....I think I sold this one."

"Sold? When?"

"It was quite early. Just a few days after I lost my memory, I got rid of all the shoes that were piled up at home."

"Huh?! Why did you sell it so hastily? Didn't I tell you that the price would go up? And you sold them all?"

Zhang Wanhui widened his eyes in disbelief.

Li Nuo gave him an innocent look in response.

The more he communicated with Zhang Wanhui, the more he felt that this man wanted to manipulate him. Although they were not in a superior-subordinate relationship, the other party's actions seemed to be forcing Li Nuo to cooperate with his actions.

"I don't know, just sell it." Li Nuo said nonchalantly.

Zhang Wanhui was speechless for a moment.

The coffee shop, which was originally somewhat noisy, suddenly became even noisier.

"Well, who is that guy?"

Hearing Zhang Wanhui's mumbling, Li Nuo raised his head in confusion, looked towards the door, and then looked into the eyes of the protagonist who caused the commotion.

"Huh?"

Li Nuo widened his eyes in astonishment. The person who appeared in his sight was getting closer and closer, and soon came in front of him.

".......Brother Mo? You're coming back so soon?"

Although Mo Chuan was standing beside the table with a smile on his face, his cold eyes and slightly twisted mouth showed that he was not in a very good mood at the moment, but no one could see it.

"I told you not to cheat, why are you seeing other people all the time!?"

He felt a little aggrieved. He had rushed to see Li Nuo as soon as he returned to China, wanting to give him a surprise. However, Liu Ming told him that Li Nuo was meeting someone else, so he hurried over from the airport.

Even though I saw it with my own eyes, I still couldn't control my expression, especially after knowing that these two people met frequently during this period of time.

The fact that he can still laugh now is just forced.

"Why are you here?" Li Nuo ignored his words and asked curiously.

Mo Chuan snorted. I thought he would be very happy, but he actually asked why he was here.

He felt a little uncomfortable in his heart and glanced at Zhang Wanhui. Did he interrupt the conversation between these two people?

At the same time, Zhang Wanhui was also looking at him.

'He's wearing all branded clothes. I saw another man like that before.'

"Li Nuo's new hookup? Are you trying to balance between these two?"

He couldn't change his opinion of Li Nuo in a short time. Perhaps because of his physical condition since childhood, Li Nuo seldom interacted with others, so he didn't understand what normal interaction was like.

In addition, he was born with good looks, and even though he had a weird personality, there were still many people who were attracted to him. However, these people did not have a deep understanding of Li Nuo.

Li Yan suffered greatly from his extreme character. He once tried hard to improve himself, but it was of no use. He had no choice but to accept it.

After that, Li Nuo became even more reckless, and because of his poverty, he became obsessed with money.

So, these two new hookups are both rich people?

Linuo's thoughts haven't changed.

He gave a knowing smile and looked at Mo Chuan with greedy eyes.

Money, who doesn’t like it?

Mo Chuan had seen this kind of gaze from him many times and felt very disdainful of it.

He simply pulled out a chair and sat next to Li Nuo, looking at him coldly and unceremoniously.

However, a small hand reached out from the side and tugged at his sleeve. Mo Chuan turned his head and his eyes softened instantly. He was stunned and felt helpless about his instant reaction.

It is clearly his own body, but it is out of the control of his master.

"I thought it would be a few days before you came back."

"Don't you want to see me earlier? Aren't you happy?"

"I am very happy," Li Nuo smiled at him, "but I feel it is a bit magical that the person who was on the video yesterday appeared in front of me today."

"I'm happy too." Mo Chuan couldn't help himself any longer and opened his arms, moving closer to hold Li Nuo in his arms.

Li Nuo was shocked. This was a public place.

He struggled hurriedly, and Mo Chuan let him go reluctantly, wanting to tell everyone that he was his, and also not wanting Li Nuo to back off.

"Let's go. It's a rare opportunity for me to come back. Shouldn't you give me a welcome party?"

Li Nuo stood up as he pulled her, and gave Zhang Wanhui an apologetic look, "Let's talk next time."

Then Mo Chuan took his hand and they walked out of the coffee shop together.
