Qiao Lubai's face darkened, "I don't want to see her."
It’s not that he can’t let go of the past, but Qiao Lubai doesn’t want more people to see his disfigured appearance.
It's not that Daisy is special, but that Daisy has intentions towards him and he doesn't want to give her any more hope.
"You have to see her." Mu Qiao looked up at him, his eyes carrying a persistence that could not be ignored. "She was harmed so badly by Revolver just to go to the Dark Forest to find you. If you don't go to see her, people will say you are a heartless and ungrateful person."
"She likes me, you know that, right?" Qiao Lubai buried his head in her neck and sniffed lightly, "Do you want your husband to be coveted by another woman?"
The pleasant scent of soapberries is unique to Mu Qiao. He likes it very much. It is much fresher and more authentic than those luxurious perfumes.
"I know." Mu Qiao had already seen it, but she was not worried because she believed in Qiao Lubai.
Because she believed it, she didn't want people to gossip about Qiao Lubai.
"Won't you be jealous if I go to see her?" Qiao Lubai asked deliberately.
...
...
"Am I such a stingy person?" Mu Qiao asked instead of answering, "Unless you still want to have some ambiguity with her."
Qiao Lubai was a little unhappy. He pressed his thin lips against her delicate neck with burning heat and bit it lightly. "I told you not to talk nonsense."
Mu Qiao felt pain and stepped on him with his foot, "Don't bite my neck."
"I'll bite your neck." He bent down, picked her up horizontally, threw her on the bed, pressed her down, and bit her gently, "I really want to punish you right here."
She sneered, kicked and punched him, and reminded him loudly, "Three months!"
"You annoying little goblin." Qiao Lubai tactfully left, stood up, changed into a white fashionable casual outfit, put on a mask and sunglasses, waved to Mu Qiao, and went out.
Mu Qiao climbed up from the bed and looked at the closed door, feeling quite conflicted.
*
In the military hospital, Daisy was lying on the bed, looking at Qiao Lubai who was wearing a mask and sunglasses, with mixed feelings.
She heard that Qiao Lubai had a scar on his face due to the explosion at Gufang Arsenal, and because of this scar, he was suspended from work for three months without pay.
Now, he appeared in front of her like this, probably because he didn't want her to see the burn scar.
The fact that Qiao Lubai has become what he is now has something to do with her.
If she hadn't been careless and infected with the virus by Revolver, he wouldn't have been framed by the DK terrorist organization in order to capture Revolver.
Everything was her fault. She was too ashamed to face Qiao Lubai, but she would be discharged from the hospital and leave Yishui City tomorrow. She was terrified that she would never see him again.
Today might be the last time they meet in this life.
Thinking of this, Daisy couldn't help but tear up, "Lu Bai, can I see the scar on your face?"
"Okay." Qiao Lubai seemed to see what she was thinking and took off the mask directly. Suddenly, the not-too-big and light scar came into Daisy's eyes.
The scar wasn't very big, but it was in the middle of the left side of his face, and although it had faded a lot, it was still very noticeable.
However, Daisy felt that even though Qiao Lubai had such a striking scar on his face, it could not change his charming and handsome appearance.
Because in her heart, he has always been perfect, and a small scar cannot change that.
"When I return to Zhouquan, I will go to see Master Duan. He will definitely be able to remove the scars on your face."
The old Duan that Daisy mentioned is actually a well-known beautician in Zhouquan's beauty industry. He retired a year ago. Some people say that he has retired to the mountains, while others say that he has settled abroad. There are many different opinions.
Only Daisy knew that Mr. Duan had actually been in Zhouquan City. She had saved Mr. Duan's life when she was investigating a case before. Mr. Duan said: If Officer Dai has any problems in the future, you can find him and he will definitely help.
"He has retired and probably won't see patients anymore." Qiao Lubai remembered that his grandfather had mentioned Master Duan, and the Qiao family had also sent people to Zhouquan, but they didn't find Master Duan.
"I'll take you there, and he will definitely see you." Daisy patted her chest and promised.
Qiao Lubai hesitated, "Are you sure?"
"Sure!" Daisy nodded affirmatively.
After leaving the hospital, Qiao Lubai called Mu Qiao.
Mu Qiao was awakened from his nap by the ringing of his cell phone.
She woke up and answered the call without looking at it. "Wife, I want to go to Zhouquan with Daisy."
Mu Qiao's heart skipped a beat: "I'll take a leave and go with you."
Now she is just an office staff of Snow Wolf, so it is okay for her to take three to five days off.
"No need." Qiao Lubai refused directly without giving a reason.
Mu Qiao felt a little jealous, "Why don't you want me to go?"
"Because you are still the political commissar of Snow Wolf. Although you have retired to the second line, you still have to take care of Snow Wolf's affairs, big or small." This excuse is really fucking offensive.
Mu Qiao put the phone down and calmed down for a while before picking it up. "Then why did you go to Zhouquan?"
Qiao Lubai's voice was a little low, "I really mind the scar on my face."
"So you want to go to Zhouquan for treatment?" Mu Qiao asked.
"Hmm!" Qiao Lubai's fingers fell on the edge of the hospital corridor, tapping lightly and rhythmically, a hint of sadness flashed across his dark eyes under his sunglasses. "My ideal is to be a frontline soldier. As long as there is a chance, I will return to my previous position."
"Go ahead. I support you." Mu Qiao finally understood why Qiao Lubai had worked so hard before. She also knew why Qiao Lubai would rather take a leave of absence without pay than return to the camp.
He is still himself, a man who only wants to move forward towards his ideals and ambitions.
In fact, Mu Qiao is very similar to him, but her body was severely damaged after being shot, and no matter how hard she tried, she could not become a front-line fighter.
Since she can no longer fight, let him go to seek medical treatment.
However, the person who accompanied him to seek medical treatment was Daisy, not her, which made her feel quite uncomfortable.
In the evening, when Mu Qiao brought the food into Tianlu Residence, he saw Qiao Lubai still standing by the bedroom window with his packed luggage beside him.
"It's time for dinner." Mu Qiao put the food on the coffee table, walked over, stretched out his hand and poked his arm, "I told grandpa about your seeking medical treatment, and he agreed."
"I knew there was nothing you couldn't do," Qiao Lubai put his arms around her, pulled her into his arms, and bent down to kiss her.
Mu Qiao directly put his hand to his lips and said, "I just had dinner. It smells bad."
"I don't dislike you." Qiao Lubai pulled her hand away and moved his lips closer to hers.
Mu Qiao turned his face away and said, "Actually, I am angry."
"No, I'm jealous." He let go of her with a smile, went to eat, and seemed to be in a good mood.
"Yes, I am jealous." Mu Qiao admitted frankly and left the room angrily.
While Qiao Lubai was eating, Ouyang Hui came over. She saw that Mu Qiao was unhappy and consoled him lovingly, "Don't worry, Lubai is not a fickle person. He didn't let you go because he didn't want to delay your work."
"Yeah, I understand." Mu Qiao responded with an unhappy smile.
Ouyang Hui also smiled. "It will take a long time to remove the scars. Three to five days of vacation is not enough, and you Snow Wolves are..."
"Mom, I understand." Mu Qiao interrupted Ouyang Hui and reassured her.
When I returned to the room, Qiao Lubai had already changed into pajamas and the dishes had been washed and neatly placed.
He sat alone on Mu Feng's balcony, looking elegant and handsome. He waved to Mu Qiao like a big boss, "Come here!"
