Chapter 215
Lien Wells took another drag on his cigar.
I quickly analyzed the pros and cons of this in my mind.
The man on the phone didn't rush him, but waited quietly for his answer.
He could just tell him that the woman has run away, but it would be too embarrassing. Businessmen naturally put interests first before doing anything.
Fortunately, although he couldn't touch that woman, he could still use that woman to knock him off.
"I think I can let her go and make a deal."
"What deal?"
"I let the woman go, and the bidding will be mine in the next two days."
The person on the other end of the phone was silent for another moment.
Lian Wells thought he was thinking about it, but he didn't expect that the man changed the subject and became careless again: "Lian, you are so shameless. That woman has already run away from you, right? Where did you come from? Are you willing to negotiate terms with me?"
Lian Wells: "..." It has only been half an hour, and he has already received the news, and he dares to say that there are no spies around him!
After hanging up the phone, he checked to see which guys around him had been exchanged.
He took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart: "Yes, she ran away, but if she is in country M for one day, I will have another chance to capture her."
"...I didn't expect you to be so free."
Lian Wells imitated his tone and became somewhat nonchalant: "What about Madam Ying Huaixu? Country M is my territory, and I'm not afraid of him in my own territory."
"Since you won't listen, there is nothing you can do. I will report everything you said to him, but after he sends more people, will it be so easy for you to succeed?"
He knew that this woman was definitely not as simple as she seemed. Maybe they kidnapped her because she let them kidnap her.
If she doesn't want to, just relying on her ability to knock people down at will and her mentality that she can do as she pleases will be even harder to catch her.
Lian Wells didn't talk nonsense to him anymore and hung up the phone.
-
Li Zhao drove around the entire city for more than half an hour before avoiding most of the monitors and driving back to the villa.
Li Nianxi rushed to open the door and saw her like this. There was still a faint fishy smell on her body. It was all because of the man who stuffed her into the trash can that she got the smell.
I couldn't help being surprised: "What's wrong with you?"
Li Nianxi was always at home and had no idea what happened to her.
Li Zhao pushed open the door and walked in: "Nothing happened, I was just kidnapped."
Li Nianxi: "...?" Is this okay?
"M Country is a mixed bag, so you should be careful when you are outside." Li Nianxi couldn't help but remind him with concern.
After all, she is also her father's savior.
"understood."
Li Zhao replied indifferently.
Even if there are fish and dragons mixed together, there should be no things or people on this planet that can threaten her.
She just wanted to take a good bath now, the smell on her body was so bad.
She suddenly regretted not stuffing the man into the trash can and letting him taste the smell of the trash can.
"But how did you escape?"
Li Zhao smelled the smell on his body in disgust and replied casually: "How else can I escape? I walked out, then I found the car keys on the group of people, and I escaped in their car."
If that group of people heard her use the word "escape", they would probably be furious.
"I won't tell you anymore. I feel like vomiting due to this smell. Let's take a shower first."
Li Zhao bypassed her and went upstairs.
Originally, I wanted to give them a small meeting gift, but it turned out that it was just a small stronghold for them. They found nothing and made them smell bad.
Li Nianxi turned sideways to make way for her, and called out to her: "My friend gave me two tickets for the auction, do you want to go take a look?"
"auctions?"
Li Zhao turned around.
The most famous auction houses in M country are all the large and small auction houses, and they are also one of the favorite places of the upper class. All kinds of transactions are hidden under that shiny surface. The brighter the light, the darker it becomes. concentrated.
"Well, do you want to go?"
"Okay, nothing's wrong anyway. How is your father's physical condition recently? You can start to slowly rehabilitate."
What she asked was nothing more than asking the patient how he felt.
Although all the data records that Li Nianxi took for her in the past few days were stable, after all, she did not operate it herself, so she still had to ask the patients for their own feedback.
"It's pretty good. Recently I can sit up and eat on my own, but I still can't get out of bed and walk on my own."
"Where's the massage?"
"It's pressed every day."
Li Zhao nodded, thinking that he had nothing to explain.
Just as he was about to go upstairs, he heard her say again: "Who kidnapped you?"
"It seems to be the group of people we met in the hospital. You should be a little more careful when you go out. They have adjusted the surveillance to know what we look like."
"We got a bunch of terrorists into trouble."
Li Nianxi raised her eyelids.
However, the most dangerous person is right next to her, so there should be nothing to worry about, right?
Since I saw her shooting skills and reaction speed in the private clinic last time, I will never treat her as an ordinary person again.
After being kidnapped, you can still come back leisurely.
Li Nianxi was helpless.
She said it in an understatement, but in reality it must not be that simple, right?
After taking a bath, Li Zhao remembered to tell Ying Huaixu that he was safe.
If the two bodyguards didn't find her, they would definitely call Ying Huaixu and send a message as soon as possible. He must be anxious, right?
When we were in the car, the phone in Zhi Nao's phone rang many times.
I took out my phone and took a look. Sure enough, there were not only missed calls from the bodyguard, but also calls from Ying Huai.
She slowly sent a message to the two bodyguards, wiped her wet hair with a towel, walked to the sofa chair next to the bed, sat down, leaned on the back of the chair, and then dialed Ying Huaixu's number.
The phone rang several times on purpose, and it felt like it was about to be automatically hung up before it was picked up.
"Hey."
The low and gloomy voice contained a bit of sullenness, mixed with unconcealable worry and helplessness.
Li Zhao understood that he was angry.
"Ahem, I'm fine."
"I know."
Ying Huai Xu's hoarse voice came from the receiver, and the two of them fell silent again.
Promise well in front of him that you will never do anything dangerous, nor will you put yourself in danger and be kidnapped as soon as you turn around.
What made him most angry and funny was that she was kidnapped and she could still walk away without any trouble.
When he heard that she was fine and even slipped away from her, he was so angry and funny.
I didn't know what to say to her for a moment.
Ying Huaixu pinched his eyebrows, but couldn't bear to blame her, so he could only say: "There will be no next time."
Seeing him giving the steps, Li Zhao started to speak with a playful smile.
As if he could read minds, the other party's voice suddenly became serious: "Don't be so playful." "...!" Li Zhao, who was about to go down the steps he gave, suddenly stopped and glanced at the phone screen suspiciously.
It's really a voice call, not a video call.
How does he know what his expression is?
"I didn't laugh..."
The very lack of confidence in her voice betrayed her.
On the contrary, Ying Huaixu felt a little better, and his voice became a little gentler: "If you do something like this again, I will fly over and catch you back. Since I promised not to go with you, you have to promise me, too." Take care of yourself, or I'll trap you and you won't be allowed to go anywhere."
His words were more serious than a joke.
When Li Zhao answered, his tone was a little more serious: "Okay, I promise you."
"That's good."
The two chatted for a few more words and then hung up the phone.
Li Zhao put down his cell phone, dried his hair, changed clothes, and went next door to give Lin Dong a full-body examination.
"Every physical value is fine, and you can start rehabilitation now. You will do rehabilitation here for half a month. I will guide you throughout the process and observe your various states. If it is stable, you can She sent you back home."
Hearing this, Lin Dong couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Dr. Li, thank you very much, if not you"
Seeing that he was crying and out of breath, Li Zhao quickly interrupted him: "Stop it, don't cry. I'm just doing a favor to my friend. Remember not to talk about this to others when you go back." Don’t look to me for anything else, just live a good life with your family.”
Lin Dong clenched the quilt with his fingers and looked at her carefully: "Doctor Li, do you know which friend it is?"
He always felt that Dr. Li gave him a very familiar feeling.
But strange.
"Of course she is your biological daughter."
"That's it." Lin Dong's eyes were filled with sadness, "Dr. Li, to be honest, I don't know how to face this biological daughter. She is a good child and was raised well, but if she comes back, I don't know. Will my daughter be sad?"
Li Zhao was silent for a moment, and his thoughts changed a little.
"Maybe some of the truth is not satisfactory, but when you go back, the truth will be revealed. I hope you can accept it and live a good life."
After hearing what she said, Lin Dong looked at her for a moment, and wanted to ask something more. The door to the room was opened, and Li Nianxi walked in with the medicine.
"how's it going?"
Li Zhao packed up his things and stood up: "Well, my body has almost recovered, and I can start rehabilitation."
Li Nianxi responded: "What do I need to prepare?"
"I'll make a list for you later." Li Zhao glanced at the man on the bed, hesitated, and said to Li Nianxi, "Come out with me."
"it is good."
Li Nianxi handed the medicine to the nurse, turned around and followed her out.
After closing the door, Li Zhao leaned against the wall with his eyebrows lowered and did not speak for a long time.
Li Nianxi thought it was because her father's condition had worsened again. She couldn't speak directly inside just now, so she could only call her out, her expression a little more solemn.
"What did you say when you called me out?"
".Do you think I should tell him the truth?"
Li Nianxi was stunned: "What?"
She had been holding it in for a long time and suddenly said such a sentence, which caught her somewhat off guard.
Is her father's condition serious enough that she needs to deliberately hide it?
Li Nianxi's heart sank, and her tone became serious: "Tell me, I'm mentally prepared."
She was prepared for the worst.
He raised his eyes to meet her suspicious gaze.
"What are you mentally preparing for? Don't you already know?"
The untrue words gave her a heads-up.
Li Nianxi's forehead twitched hard.
She realized now that they were not talking about the same thing.
"No, what are you going to tell him?"
Li Zhao told her all his thoughts.
If she hadn't felt that he had strong feelings for the daughter she had raised since childhood, she wouldn't have been so entangled in which one would hurt him less.
"It's better to tell him directly. You will know sooner or later. You can't hide it forever."
Li Zhao glanced at her.
She actually thought so in her heart. She didn't say it directly at first because she was afraid that he wouldn't recover well and his mood would fluctuate too much, and he would suddenly get over it again.
Now his physical condition is stable and there should be no problem.
Li Nianxi saw her worries and sighed: "I'll go in with you and talk about it together."
After much hesitation, he nodded in agreement.
After telling him everything he could tell, Lin Dong was stunned for a long time without reacting.
Li Zhaodu was ready to rescue him.
He slowly came back to his senses and looked at her steadily: "Are you saying that Zhao Zhao is dead?"
".Yes."
Li Zhao tilted his head to avoid his probing gaze.
She didn't know how to face the disappointed and shocked eyes of a father who was full of hope and wanted to go home to see his daughter and who loved her daughter very much.
There was silence in the room for another while.
"How did Zhao Zhao die?"
There was no emotion on his face, and the trembling in his voice was not obvious, making it difficult to capture.
Li Zhao paused and said honestly: "I don't know."
Lin Dong's eyes never left her face from beginning to end.
The girl in front of him looks very similar to his daughter, but her temperament is different from the inside out.
And his daughter doesn't know how to heal.
The light in the man's eyes dimmed little by little.
There is nothing similar except looks.
Is this what she means by "the truth is often unsatisfactory"?
"Why did you tell me so suddenly?"
Why did you suddenly tell him the truth when you chose to deceive him at first?
Li Zhao and Li Nianxi looked at each other.
"Because you will find out sooner or later when you go back, and the truth may be crueler than what I told you. It's better to give you a vaccination now. After you know more about it later, it will be easier to accept it."
Lin Dong: "." There is something even more difficult for him to accept?
What happened while he was sleeping?
Li Zhao met his eyes: "But I still hope that after you go back, you won't tell anyone about your experience here, including things about me."
She is not afraid of being hated and disliked on this planet.
She is only afraid of being loved.
She will leave here sooner or later. Hatred and disgust cannot stop her, but love will bring a heavy burden to her and hinder her return.
"Okay, Doctor Zhao Li."
Hearing this title, Li Zhao knew that he had accepted what she had just said.
