Chapter 17: Male beauty, beauty attack
In the hotel room, the splashing of water stopped. Gao Li emerged from the bathroom, wrapped in a bathrobe.
Jian Yi was sitting at the table flipping through a fashion magazine in the hotel. He looked up when he heard the voice.
"My hair is still dripping."
——[Ouch.]
Gao Li hurriedly wiped his hair again, not daring to look, but unable to help but secretly looking at it.
Number 13 naturally noticed something was wrong with its host. "Host, what's wrong with you?"
"Shouldn't you be happy that Jian Yi looks good? And you were looking forward to it last night, so why do you look unhappy now?"
——[Is there...? I'm happy, I'm very happy.]
She was very happy, but she just couldn't control her pounding heart.
She felt like she was about to be slapped hard in the face.
This face must have been created by Nuwa herself, it's so beautiful.
Gao Li sat down and wiped his hair. After a moment of silence, he typed something on his phone.
[Why are you here?]
——[Aren’t you coming?]
The man looked over, and Gao Li quickly lowered her eyes. Jian Yi only saw her thick, curly eyelashes, fluttering like two small fans.
He sighed softly and rubbed his temples. Could he say that his head ached from the clamor of his inner voice?
It really doesn't matter the distance, it remains unchanged.
He knew there was something fishy going on from the beginning, but who could blame her for calling him a daughter-in-law one moment and a son-in-law the next? He was so angry that he closed his eyes.
Whatever, she is the one who is deceitful.
Her daughter-in-law and son-in-law who are looking forward to it so much might be happy with it.
Even with this decision, I still felt uneasy when the time came.
Gao Li is the variable in his life, his hope to escape from his predetermined life. If something really happens to her, won't he still have to bear the consequences?
So he decided to take a trip.
Listening to the inner voice, he already knew that it was true.
But when he really saw Gao Li's miserable appearance, a nameless anger suddenly rose in his heart.
He has the final say on how to treat Gao Li, but who are these people from the Jian family?
"I'm afraid you'll go back crying."
Gao Li curled his lips.
——［I won’t cry. I’m very strong.］
She asked again.
When can we go back?
Jian Yi glanced at the closed room and said, "I don't know, but I definitely can't go back tonight."
[Why? ]
"Why?"
Jian Yi raised his eyes, suddenly pulled Gao Li's wrist, put his whole face in front of her, and stared into her eyes.
"It's because of my face, of course."
"Why did my face suddenly get better? It's really strange, my fiancée, do you know?"
Gao Li: “…”
——［！ ！ ！］
——［Who could have known this sudden beauty attack would come my way! Ahhhhhhhhhhh.］
——[I’m almost suffocating. What should I do? How can I answer?]
[Ahhh, my brother's amazing looks are finally back. ]
The pink barrage that filled the entire screen dazzled Gao Li, layer upon layer covering Jian Yi's beautiful face.
——[No. 13, this barrage has caused me trouble. I’ll give you one day to resolve it!]
——[Three seconds. If you don’t disperse, I’ll… quit.]
No. 13: “…”
What a powerful threat.
The barrage of comments seemed to have stopped, dispersing in just a second and disappearing without a trace.
The screaming voice in his heart, like a folk song, made Jian Yi frown slightly.
He thought, it was a good thing that he couldn't see the barrage, otherwise it would have been a double pollution of noise and vision.
No. 13: "Okay, but host, you need to think of a wording first."
I just wanted to tease her, but ended up giving myself a headache because of the noise.
After Jian Yi evacuated, Gao Li finally took a breath.
She was typing on her phone.
[I don't know either. ]
——[Yes, I don’t know. How could I know such a thing? I’ll just play dumb until the end. Even if I leave them hanging, they won’t be able to find the mystery behind this.]
No. 13: "Yeah, the more I explain, the less it makes sense. Just play dumb, that's fine."
Jian Yi: "Yes, I don't know how it got better after I woke up. You said the same thing when the Jian family asked you."
Now that we have come this far, what else is there for Gao Li to not understand?
She stood up and angrily threw the wet towel she had used to wipe into the bathroom.
——[So it was because of the Jian family. They wanted to poison Jian Yi, but they didn’t expect that not only did he not die, but he also looked fine.]
——[Jian Zhengyuan must be furious now, wondering what's going on. Leaving us here with someone guarding the door is like house arrest.]
——[Humph, I'm not afraid. If you have the guts, go check it out. It would be a wonder if you can find anything.]
No. 13: "Humph, even though our system is completely invisible, Jian Zhengyuan was still able to find us. He even called me grandpa when I asked him."
——[Well, I know what you mean, but don’t set flags casually.]
Jian Yi just listened to her arguing with the system, and actually felt relieved for a moment.
*
The Jian family was in a panic at this time.
Jian Shaoyi hasn't recovered yet.
This farce deprived Jian Sili and Su Sanwan of their joy as newlyweds.
Jian Zhengyuan is calling Jiang Baitong.
"Is his face okay?"
Jiang Bai was surprised. "I don't know. Every time I went there, he wore a mask. The medicine I gave him didn't have any scar removal properties. And considering the scars on his face, surgery is necessary to completely remove them."
Jian Zhengyuan called Sun Fang again.
Sun Fang: "I rarely see him without a mask when I'm delivering food or cleaning. But I did see him the day before yesterday... this morning, and that side of his face hadn't healed yet."
"Who does he usually interact with?"
Sun Fang: “…”
Aren't you very clear about the kind of people he usually interacts with?
"Apart from me and Dr. Jiang, the person I interact with the most is Miss Gao."
Gao Li, another woman like this.
Jian Zhengyuan: "What kind of contact do they have on a daily basis?"
Sun Fang replied, "We eat three meals a day together, but since Jian Yi lost his memory, he seems to be very dependent on Miss Gao. We stay together at night."
She was not allowed to enter Jian Yi's bedroom and study to clean. She just saw Gao Li coming out of Jian Yi's bedroom sometimes in the morning.
As for whether Gao Li was on the bed or on the floor, she didn't know.
After hanging up the phone, Jian Zhengyuan anxiously pushed the things on the table away.
“Knock, knock.”
Jian Sili knocked on the door.
"Dad, did you find anything?"
"No, his face couldn't have healed silently. If he had really undergone surgery, there would have been such a big noise that I wouldn't have been unaware of it. The key is that there was no surgery."
Jian Zhengyuan couldn't understand how his face got better.
They were extremely anxious, while the great hero Gao Li was sitting with his legs crossed and eating the pastries brought by the waiter comfortably.
Jian Yi closed the magazine and rubbed his sore brows.
"I'm a little sleepy. I'll take a nap first. You should be quiet."
He didn't sleep all night last night, and he probably has another battle to fight tonight, so he needs to sleep for a while and replenish his energy.
Gao Li wiped the snack from the corner of his mouth and nodded.
——[I can’t speak, so I must be quiet. Do I need to be reminded?]
Jian Yi had already lain down, eyes half closed. "If you feel sleepy, take a rest. Don't think about anything else."
In short, say less of what's really on your mind.
--[snort. ]
Jian Yi was really sleepy, and after a while, he could hear the sound of steady breathing.
Gao Li took a few furtive glances, brushed off the snack crumbs on his hands, and climbed onto the bed in a few swipes.
Then she leaned in close and stared straight into his face.
Only at this time could she stare at him as if nothing had happened. Whenever these eyes were open, she could not feel at ease.
After looking carefully, she found that Jian Yi's face was not completely healed.
Only the large scars were removed, but if you look closely, there are still some very obvious scars.
It's like a small pimple that suddenly appears on a person's face. You can only see it clearly if you get close or use a high-definition camera, but these details are almost invisible at a normal social distance.
But this shallow scar is so eye-catching on this handsome face at this moment.
She leaned closer.
——［1, 2, 3…13, 14.］
——[Okay, I've completed 14 more kisses. Please give me two more bottles of magic medicine.]
No. 13: “…”
It's strange. Why is the host so eager to complete the task and also to ask for the magic medicine?
But she did get the job done, and her demands were legitimate.
Gao Li got two bottles of magic medicine, opened them and applied them directly on the scars on Jian Yi's face.
——[Okay, okay, quickly put the bottle back.]
Two small bottles as big as fingernails quickly disappeared from Gao Li's palm.
There are many bottles of magic medicine stored in the storage space No. 13, in case the host needs to exchange for the magic medicine immediately after completing the task like now.
The magic medicine is taken out when it is used, and the bottle is recycled after use. No one except the person involved will find out about its existence.
This time, Gao Li lay beside him, staring at the place where the medicine had just been applied, concentrating on waiting for a miracle to happen.
——[Wow, this is amazing.]
She saw the scar slowly disappearing. It was like a special effect in a movie or TV series, happening right here in the real world.
Gao Li looked at him carefully. The scar was completely gone, and his face became more delicate and handsome.
——[His face was healed with just 22 bottles of miracle medicine, but his legs alone required 70 or 80 bottles of miracle medicine?]
No. 13 explained, "Yes, the scars on his face are external injuries after all, but his legs have both external and internal injuries. The most important thing is that the nerves need to be repaired, which is more difficult than scar removal."
——[Trauma?]
Only then did Gao Li realize that his leg was injured.
He usually wears long trousers and covers himself with a thin blanket when sitting in a wheelchair.
Even if she pounced on him madly, she would only take off his shirt. She was not a pervert so why would she take off his pants for no reason? So she had never seen what his legs really looked like.
That’s right, how could there be no scars if it was pierced directly by a sharp thorn?
It would have been fine if she hadn't expected it, but this reminder made her feel itchy.
——[I really want to see, how badly injured is it?]
No. 13: "How about... we uncover it and take a look while he's sleeping?"
With a partner in crime, Gao Li was emboldened.
She clenched her hands and guiltily tried to lift up Jian Yi's trouser legs. The trousers were already a certain width, and after she lifted them below the knees, she couldn't lift them up any further.
Judging from the visual inspection, there is no injury to the calf.
That means the injury is in the thigh.
In the thigh.
Some indescribable images inexplicably emerged in Gao Li's mind.
——[Then when applying it externally in the future, wouldn’t it be…]
——[Close to the knees, that's fine, but if it goes any higher...]
No. 13: "Host! Please stop those unspeakable imaginations of yours!"
——[Okay, okay, I don’t want to.]
Gao Li took a deep breath and turned his head, just in time to meet a pair of sleepy eyes.
Her face quickly turned red and she froze.
Jian Yi was woken up by the noise. He frowned and pulled Gao Li to lie aside.
"Can you get some sleep?"
The man's arm was directly across Gao Li's waist. Looking at the beauty so close to him, Gao Li blinked his eyes.
——[How can I sleep like this?]
"sleep."
Gao Li: “…”
——［zz Z］
No. 13: “zz Z”
