"I'm sorry, I—"

Lu Xue wanted to turn around and leave, but then felt that she couldn't ignore Chen Li's injuries, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

"It's okay, I've prepared some medicine myself and I want to heal my injury as soon as possible."

Chen Li's mind went blank for a moment, and he didn't know what to say.

"Oh, you're injured. Let me put some medicine on you."

Lu Xue was caught in a dilemma and sought his opinion.

The bullet hole in his buttocks was in a difficult spot to apply medicine, otherwise he wouldn't have had to twist his waist into a pretzel. The only way to resolve the awkward situation right now was for both of them to find a way to back down.

For example, ask her to help you apply the medicine.

Anyway, adults all know what each other looks like; they've already seen each other, so there's no secret left.

Chen Li simply let go and said:

"Then I'll have to trouble you."

what?

Lu Xue was secretly surprised. She was just being polite, so why did she agree so readily?

"oh."

She stepped forward, squatted down, and used a cotton swab dipped in iodine to disinfect the wound.

"Wet the wound so it's easier to apply the medicine powder."

To ease the awkwardness, Chen Li explained from the side.

"Yes, that's right."

Lu Xue agreed, staring at the wound that had been cut open and stitched up with a scalpel, her hands moving very gently.

Following his instructions, I evenly spread the powder on the gauze and applied it to the wound.

The powder contains anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs; it doesn't hurt, but it feels cool and refreshing.

As she gently bandaged him, her tight, short breaths touched his skin, causing Chen Li to feel something that he couldn't control.

Lu Xue couldn't see what was in front of her, but she could see a raised shadow on the floor.

Instantly.

Her heart was racing, her throat was tight, and her face was so red it looked like it could bleed.

After bandaging his wound, Chen Li pulled up his pants, wanting to end the awkward situation as quickly as possible, and said:

"alright."

Lu Xue seemed still engrossed in it, pointing at his back and saying:

"Doesn't this wound need any medicine?"

"Of course I want to," Chen Li hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"You have to go to work tomorrow, and I don't want to disturb your rest..."

"It's okay. I usually tutor Ziyan with her homework, clean the house, and also use my phone to study. I don't go to bed early. Let's put medicine on this wound while we're at it."

Lu Xue gently persuaded her.

Having said that, Chen Li could only nod in agreement and hum in response.

This time, she knew what to do without Chen Li's much guidance.

When the gauze was removed, the wound was even more gruesome than the one below. When disinfecting it with iodine, I was afraid of hurting him, so I held my little finger up and didn't dare to use any more force.

She didn't ask how the wound came about, but she was certain that Chen Li wasn't as simple as he seemed.

Perhaps his connections to the underworld, which allowed him to make the drunken gamblers who harassed her disappear into thin air, speak volumes.

She didn't reject his mysterious identity; on the contrary, she felt an inexplicable sense of security.

After bandaging.

Perhaps it was her natural fascination with muscular, testosterone-filled muscles, but her fingers traced over them as if caressing an ancient piece of jade.

An electric-like sensation spread from the nerves beneath the skin throughout Chen Li's body, causing his muscles to tense uncontrollably.

The night was dark, and the lamplight was dim.

A breeze blew in through the cracks in the window, stirring the white gauze curtains and creating an inexplicably romantic and alluring atmosphere in the room.

A lone man and a lone woman are alone in a room, their hearts filled with an irrepressible flutter of affection for each other.

In an instant, sparks ignited.

Two burning hot bodies embraced each other.

Although Lu Xue is youthful and refined in appearance and quite famous in the modeling world, with many suitors, she has never compromised on her standards for a partner.

Therefore, she has never had a real romantic relationship, let alone any experience with men and women.

She passively endured the kisses, feeling only heat; the tight shirt made it hard to breathe, but fortunately, a large hand quickly helped her break free of the restraints.

Chen Li's fabric sofa is very soft.

While helping him with housework and tidying the sofa, I inexplicably wondered if we might have a romantic and passionate encounter on the sofa. Little did I know that my dream would come true so soon.

She was like a pool of water, wanting to melt into the sofa.

I desperately want it.

I want all of him.

The old clock on the wall struck twice; it was already midnight.

Chen Li leaned back on the sofa and smoked.

Lu Xue leaned against him, her pretty face flushed and radiant, she had never felt such a sense of happiness, security and satisfaction as she did today.

The two remained silent for a long time.

Even after the echoes of the bells faded, the wonderful empty promise was still being savored.

"Did you start teaching at the dance training class today?"

Chen Li asked suddenly, without thinking.

"No, maybe they just want me to get familiar with the work Luo Xia does, to be a manager who can be both busy and relaxed."

Lu Xue lay on his lap, her tone calm, and added:

"But I want to earn money through my own efforts, not through connections. Of course, I earn money to support myself and Ziyan. As long as I can earn money, that's good enough. People are always caught between reality and ideals."

"She's still stuck in her romantic fantasies," Chen Li shook his head and laughed, saying.

"If you feel like you're living under someone else's roof while working for someone else, how about I take back my own used car dealership and restaurant and let you manage them?"

"You also own a used car dealership and a restaurant?"

Lu Xue looked at him in surprise, and seeing him nod, she immediately shook her head and said:

"I can serve dishes and wash dishes, but I'm not cut out for business. I don't want to ruin a perfectly good business."

Chen Li patted her head and said:

"With professionals managing it, you only need to look at the accounts, and you'll have more time to spend with Ziyan on weekdays."

What he said makes sense.

On second thought, does this mean they're acknowledging their close relationship and making her the boss's wife?

Thinking of this, her face flushed uncontrollably, a sweet smile appeared on her lips, and she said:

"Alright, just let me know whenever you need my help. But you have to start working at this new job first, so people don't say I'm only working sporadically."

"Yes, I'll take back these properties in the next couple of days."

Chen Li was never a heartless person; no matter what happened in the future, he had to provide Lu Xue and Zi Yan with the means to live.

Yuan Tao is dead.

The legal representative is Guo Cailin.

Five years ago, they conspired to send themselves to prison and seize their property. If the evidence is conclusive, they can take it back.

Xiao Wen, the president's secretary at Xingyao Group, is very capable. If she were to utilize the legal department, she should be able to handle this minor lawsuit with ease.

I'll call Mu Ningshuang tomorrow and ask her to help me with this little thing.

Lu Xue was still worried about leaving Zi Yan alone in the house, so she went to take a shower and go back to check on her. She planned to explain their relationship to her when she had the chance.

after all.

Children should also be respected and have the right to know and accept information.

Chen Li escorted her to the door, then returned and sat cross-legged on the sofa to meditate and regulate his breathing.

To his astonishment, he found that his breathing was much lighter and smoother, his injuries that had accumulated over many years had lessened by at least 10%, and even his wounds were healing at an incredible speed.

Lu Xue's extremely Yin constitution was indeed many times stronger than Mu Ningshuang's Yin constitution.

I estimate that it will take less than six months to remove the hidden injuries in my body!

Although they haven't found a woman with a pure Yin constitution to completely heal their internal injuries, with Mu Ningshuang and Lu Xue practicing dual cultivation to heal them, plus the assistance of rare and precious herbs, they can barely cope.

I woke up the next morning.

Chen Li glanced at his phone.

Lu Xue sent a message saying that she was taking Zi Yan to school and then going to work. She said the key to her house was under the doormat and reminded her not to forget to eat breakfast.

At the end, there's a cute and playful smiley face, truly an innocent and carefree young girl.

He washed up, went across the street for breakfast, and took the opportunity to call Mu Ningshuang, asking her to talk to Xiaowen and help him get back his property in court on the spot.
