Chapter 74 Casualties

He Yan stayed here for a few days and then left. After all, he was a doctor, and even if he took a vacation, it wouldn't be for long, as there were still many patients waiting in the hospital.

Before leaving, she took Li Nuo aside and told him a lot of things to pay attention to. Later, probably because she thought he couldn't remember, Aunt Zheng said that she would remember them, and He Yan handed the task of taking care of Li Nuo to her.

There was also a family doctor on call and various medicines were adequately prepared, so He Yan left with peace of mind.

Overall, his life here is pretty good. Although he is worried about Li Yan's situation, the people here are very easy to get along with and treat him very well. He quickly became familiar with the place and has free access to the study, audio-visual room and other places for his use.

After a few days of adjustment, his life became regular. He read books, played games, went for walks, and did some very simple exercises in the gym.

Coupled with the aunt's diet adjustment, he was visibly in good shape. He didn't gain much weight, but his face became much more rosy and no longer as pale as snow.

Every day passed peacefully like this until a guest came to visit.

"Sure enough, it's much colder in the mountains than in the city," Li Nuo came out of the greenhouse holding a book. The temperature difference made him shiver, but the weather has been good recently. The villa is located in a sunny area, and the warm sunlight has eliminated a lot of the cold.

He was just about to go back to the study to return the book he had just read when he heard some noisy noise coming from the door.

The only people who came here should be those who knew the situation. Li Nuo walked quickly towards the front yard.

But the person who appeared before him was Qin Xu.

Li Nuo widened his eyes slightly. Why is this person, who should be the busiest person, here?

Qin Xu also noticed him, waved, pointed to the living room, and motioned for him to go inside and talk.

Li Nuo returned to the living room from the path, "Why is Brother Qin here?"

Looking at the somewhat stunned Li Nuo, Qin Xu asked, "Am I surprised to be here?"

"Uh--something."

He thought the first person he would meet would be Li Yan or Mo Chuan, but since it was a rare opportunity to see old friends, he still welcomed them with a smile.

"Long time no see."

"Well...you look much better." The voice sounded somewhat satisfied.

These words made Li Nuo touch his face. Without him telling him, Li Nuo could see that it was really comfortable to live here, and those management staff were really good at serving people.

Because of the healthy diet and exercise, when he feels lazy, Aunt Zheng will remind him with a smile that it is time to go for a walk.

He has recovered, but Qin Xu...

"We haven't seen each other for a long time. Brother Qin, have you eaten well during this time?"

As soon as he looked over, he noticed that Qin Xu had lost a lot of weight, and his originally sharp features became more prominent.

"Have I lost a lot of weight?"

"Yes, the bones in the lower jaw are protruding." Li Nuo pointed at his chin.

"Do you remember it so clearly?"

“Because I kept looking up.”

Li Nuo's answer made Qin Xu smile.

The last time they met was when he looked at Li Nuo sleeping on the hospital bed. So it had been a long time since they last saw each other.

Li Nuo observed Qin Xu carefully. In addition to being much thinner and having dark circles under his eyes, he also noticed that Qin Xu seemed to be injured.

He reached out his hand, but did not touch his chin.

"There's a wound here."

“........”

"It's on my face, my neck, and my hands."

Li Nuo's gaze slowly moved downwards. Feeling that there were too many wounds, he grabbed Qin Xu's hand and pulled his sleeves up a little. Sure enough, there were wounds on his arm as well.

"How did you get injured? Were you beaten?"

Qin Xu, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but speak up, "Am I the kind of person who would get beaten?"

"You...committed suicide?"

Li Nuo's eyes suddenly widened and his voice tone rose a little.

"........Although having a vivid imagination is good, don't use it on me."

Qin Xu looked down at Li Nuo's little hand that was holding his wrist, and stood still hoping that he would hold on for a little longer, but Li Nuo soon let go.

"So...did you have a fight with someone?"

Qin Xu thought about it and said, "About the same."

Seeing that he looked worried, she reached out and touched his head, "Don't worry, that person is much worse off than me."

Li Nuo rolled his eyes and said, "Do you have any other wounds on your body? You need to treat them properly. If you insist on not doing it, you will regret it when you are older."

".....I'm not that old..."

"I mean later."

"Don't mention age anymore," Qin Xu said expressionlessly. Mentioning this reminded him of the age difference between them, nine years. In fact, there was only a three-year gap between the two generations. He always felt like an uncle with evil intentions.

"It's not that serious," Qin Xu held Li Nuo's hand, let him sit on the sofa, and sat down himself.

Sitting here, I can just take in the entire living room. Mo Chuan has put a lot of thought into this.

"Brother Qin...how long will you stay here?"

"Well.....how long do you want me to stay?"

"Then I wish you had stayed longer..."

Li Nuo said this hesitantly. Although life is good, the cell phone and the Internet are not working, and there is no way to contact the outside world. For a modern person, it is really panic. It would be much better to have a familiar person by your side.

He thought about it and felt that he was being a bit unreasonable. "Forget it. Company matters are more important."

"You don't have to think about that."

"......"

Perhaps because his words were a little stiff, Li Nuo puffed up his lips.

Qin Xu sat up straight and said quickly, "That's not what I meant."

"Nothing, I'm just meddling in other people's business."

Li Nuo wanted to get up and leave, but Qin Xu quickly grabbed his wrist and said, "I want to say that you don't have to worry about the company's affairs. We will take care of it. Also, I will stay for a few days."

His anxious tone surprised Li Nuo. He had never heard him speak like that before.

Li Nuo looked at Qin Xu's anxious expression and suddenly realized.

Is this how you treat someone you like?

Judging from what is described in the novel, Qin Xu is a very domineering and ruthless person.

What is before my eyes now is very gentle, and feels like a downgrade from a lion.

He was silent, and Qin Xu continued: "I have finished the general things, so you can stay for a few days. I will accompany you."

Li Nuo came back to his senses and muttered, "Who wants you to accompany me?"

"You said you wanted me to stay longer."

"I don't think about it now."

"......"

Qin Xu looked at him for a while, then sighed briefly, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that."

“.......”

"Didn't you hear? I'm sorry..."

"Wow!"

“Why is the reaction to an apology “Wow?”

"Because it's amazing, Brother Qin's apology, the first time?"

Qin Xu paused. He didn't expect that he would say sorry to others. It seemed that he really had never said it. But if he didn't say it, Li Nuo seemed to be angry and would not calm down, so he said it involuntarily.

Linuo's anger subsided immediately, and he relaxed his body and leaned back on the sofa. "There are a lot of books and games here, so you won't be bored. There's also a place to exercise. Oh, but you should rest now."

He glanced at Qin Xu's face, which was very pale.

The reason why Qin Xu appeared here was that he wanted to hide here for a few days. Not only were there those minor wounds that Li Nuo saw, but the condition under his clothes was not very good.

'We have already entered the era of rule of law, but those old-fashioned people still prefer to use traditional means to solve problems.'

Just yesterday, Wendong's account book had been deciphered. Qin Xu did not give him face and directly disclosed part of it at the shareholders' meeting. Then, the old man got angry.

After all, he started out through illegal means, and he still has a lot of people under him.

After get off work, the car Qin Xu was riding in was directly hit by a truck.

Thanks to his advance preparation and rich driving experience, otherwise it would have been a disaster.

The quiet street was filled with the sound of tires scraping across the ground.

The driver raised his head reluctantly and looked towards the back seat. "Director Qin... uh, are you okay?"

The impact was real, and the body was temporarily paralyzed, so the driver tried his best to make sounds.

Qin Xu, who was sitting in the back seat, was also affected and it took him a long time to come to his senses.

"Ha, what a lunatic."

They actually do these things in a place where there are so many people coming and going.

He struggled to get up, and Wendong's men had already started fighting with his own people.

Qin Xu had no choice but to join the battle, and was scratched in the process. Fortunately, Fang Che brought people to the scene in time.

"Pretend that I'm in the intensive care unit and use public opinion." Although he was injured, it was not fatal. He still had time to give orders. "If he dares to attack in this downtown area, I will force him to death."

Naturally, I had to find a place to hide. After much thought, I decided that the villa with a doctor was the best place.

Although Mo Chuan and Li Yan were unwilling.

I wonder how they handled it?

Coming back to his senses from his thoughts, he looked at Li Nuo, "You have lived here for so long, what have you done?"

Li Nuo thought about it and said, "Nothing much, just reading books, playing games, watching TV, etc."

"By the way, Aunt Zheng said there is a swimming pool, but I haven't used it yet."

"Go if you want. The replaced water will not be wasted but used for other purposes, such as cleaning." He knew what Li Nuo was concerned about.

"Oh, then how about we go swimming tomorrow? It would be boring for me to go swimming alone."

Qin Xu hesitated, the injured area must not touch water.

Seeing him hesitate, Li Nuo slapped his head and said, "I was really crazy to go swimming in the middle of winter. What's more, you have wounds on your body. Don't worry about it. I was just talking nonsense. Brother Qin, you should rest."

"Not for now. Where do you usually like to stay here? Take me to see it."

"Ah, I often go to the greenhouse. I just came out from there."

Li Nuo, who led the people into the greenhouse, said with a smile, "Before I left, the gardener had just finished pruning. I said I would help, but ended up doing more harm than good. I pulled out the precious flower seeds as weeds," he said a little embarrassedly, "and I just watched from then on."

"I usually like to read books or play single-player games here because the atmosphere is great. I also watched a movie here yesterday."

"What movie did you watch?" Qin Xu asked slowly as he sat on the recliner.

"To be honest, the movie about individual heroism, where one person rushes into the enemy base and annihilates the enemy, is a bit exaggerated."

“Because it’s a movie.”

"That should be logical, not surreal."

"If I were your opponent, I could probably beat a hundred of you."

“........”

Li Nuo pouted, "You're so annoying."

When she stood up, she frowned and didn't dare to show her temper openly, but muttered to herself softly.

The recliner swayed a bit, and Li Nuo lost his balance and fell backwards. Qin Xu reflexively reached out to catch him, but accidentally pulled the wound, and he couldn't help but let out an involuntary "hiss".

Hearing his somewhat painful sound, Li Nuo immediately turned around to look at him.

"Are you... injured somewhere else?"

Qin Xu fell silent for a moment.

Li Nuo quickly pulled him and said, "You stay here. I'll go get the doctor."

Although I am light in weight, I am still an adult. What should I do if I put pressure on the wound and cause it to be injured?

"No, let's go to the living room together. It's hard to handle here."

Qin Xu stood up without changing his expression. The wound must have been broken, but he didn't want Li Nuo to worry too much.

When I returned to the living room, the family doctor was already there. "Let's go to the room. The living room is not very convenient."
