Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

After Han Tao repositioned the dislocated joint, he gently massaged it while asking about her condition.

Hearing Han Tao's words, Xu Li couldn't help but move her ankles, and immediately said in surprise:

"Alright? Other than a little bloating, it doesn't hurt at all!"

"It's just slightly dislocated, not serious. But try not to exert yourself for the next few days. Then put on some plasters for bruises and injuries. It should be healed in less than a week."

After Han Tao finished speaking, Xu Li looked at him in surprise and said:

"It's not that fast to go to the hospital. How did you do it? I'm really getting more and more curious about you!"

"Traditional Chinese medicine is more authoritative for this type of injury. For injuries caused by falls, Chinese medicine has better treatment options than Western medicine in massage and bone setting.

If you go to the hospital for a sprain like this, the most they'll do is take an X-ray. If there's no bone damage, they'll prescribe some anti-inflammatory and analgesic medication, and then you can go home and recuperate."

Han Tao looked at her with a smile and responded confidently while massaging her.

"That's right, Western medicine is better at surgery!"

Xu Li nodded and smiled happily as she looked at Han Tao who was massaging her ankle seriously.

This sunny and gentlemanly-looking man makes people feel safe, and his words and actions are very charming.

"Alas! Han Tao is three years younger than me, and I'm divorced. What nonsense are you imagining?"

Xu Li was a gentle and well-mannered woman. After she came to her senses, she said nothing and just watched Han Tao give her a massage. She couldn't help but feel sad. If only she had met him in the first place...

"Stand up and try to see if it works."

As Han Tao finished speaking, Xu Li suddenly found that he was looking at her in a daze with a smile. She stood up a little embarrassedly and moved a few times. Sure enough, the pain was not so severe anymore.

"Yeah, it really doesn't hurt anymore!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Han Tao's smiling voice came to her ears:

"That's good. I was worried that my technique might be rusty. Just avoid strenuous exercise and don't stand for too long these next two days, and you'll be fine."

Xu Li nodded, looked at the time, and then said to Han Tao: "It's getting late now. I'll go cook. You sit for a while."

"You should walk less now. Wait until your foot injury is completely healed."

Han Tao had just treated her and was very clear about her condition. He thought it would be better for her to rest more at this time, so he hurriedly advised her not to move.

"It's okay. I promised to treat you to a meal! I'm fine now, and I need to eat too."

"I didn't say I don't want to eat it. It's not convenient for you now, so I'll just offer you some flowers. How about you try my cooking today?"

Han Tao loves delicious food, so he cooks a lot. Although his cooking skills are not very good, he can still make some decent home-cooked dishes.

"Let me do it, I'm really fine!"

"I'm your attending physician now. I have the final say whether there's anything wrong or not. So listen to me!"

"Okay, then I'll enjoy being served for a while!"

After pushing and shoving for a while, Xu Li couldn't persuade Han Tao. Knowing that he was concerned about her and didn't want to make him worry, she sat down.

Han Tao smiled and said, "That's right. Let's not be polite. When I was in college, I loved to cook my own food. During that time, the dorm manager even confiscated two of my pots!"

"I never thought you could even cook. Seriously, is there anything you can't do?"

After hearing this, Xu Li couldn't help but make a few jokes. She really didn't expect that Han Tao, a legal elite, was also a good family man who could even cook.

"Yes, let me forget Sister Li and giving birth to a child!"

"Bah, so indecent!"

She spat coquettishly, and seeing that Han Tao had already carried the things to the kitchen, Xu Li leaned back on the sofa and smiled.

Han Tao carried the vegetables to the kitchen, took a quick look at the vegetables Xu Li had bought before, picked out a few of her favorites, and then started cooking.

Forty minutes later, everything was done and the two of them had dinner. Han Tao didn't cook too much. They just had braised pork ribs, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, braised shrimps, blanched Chinese cabbage and clam tofu soup, the standard four dishes and one soup, all home-cooked meals.

However, what Han Tao cooked was very delicious, and the smell made people's appetite increase.

Han Tao looked at his results with satisfaction, then shouted to Xu Li on the sofa:

"Sister Li, wash your hands and eat!"

"Wow, you didn't learn to be a chef, did you? The food you cook is so delicious!"

At the dinner table, Xu Li, who was helped over by Han Tao, gave him a thumbs up in surprise, praising his excellent cooking skills!

“As long as it suits your taste! I don’t like eating out all the time, so I cook often.

People should never mistreat themselves at any time."

Han Tao laughed and responded to Xu Li happily.

"I agree with that. You can't let yourself suffer! Wait for me, I'll be right back."

The speaker may not have intended it, but the listener may have taken it to heart. After hearing this, Xu Li didn't know what she was thinking.

She was silent for a moment, then suddenly stood up and slowly walked back to the living room.

"What's wrong? I'll get whatever you need!"

"Don't move, I'll be right back."

After a while, Xu Li returned to the table. In her hand was an opened bottle of red wine and two goblets. She said:

“How can good food be paired with good wine? This is what my ex-husband left me, and it’s pretty good.

I originally planned to keep it as a souvenir, but now I think there's no need. Let's drink it today, don't you mind?

"Of course I don't mind. It seems Sister Li has really come out of it. Drinking this is perfect!"

Han Tao took the red wine and the goblet with a smile and poured a glass for each of them.

Xu Li looked at Han Tao with tenderness in her eyes and said, "Are you happy today? Can you chat with me?"

Han Tao looked at her gently, then immediately understood and handed her the wine glass, saying, "Okay, let's chat..."

"Come on, cheers!" The two smiled at each other and clinked their glasses.

When drinking with a good friend, the two of them chatted while eating. The topics went from shallow to deep, from life to work, from the past to the present. They each told some interesting stories, talked and laughed, and the meal was quite pleasant.

After dinner, because Xu Li had injured her foot, Han Tao took the initiative to clean up the mess and wash the dishes.

Watching this attentive and warm man busying himself, Xu Li felt an indescribable sense of security and assurance in her heart.

After Han Tao finished his work, Xu Li looked back at Han Tao with a feeling of unsatisfied desire, and everything was said without words.

Her smile was so charming that Han Tao understood and took the remaining half bottle of wine, then sat on the sofa and continued to chat with her while drinking red wine.

It's not the wine that makes you drunk, it's you who makes you drunk! I searched for him among the crowd for hundreds of times, but when I turned around, he was there, in the dim light!

I don’t know if it was because Xu Li’s wine was a little intoxicating, or because they were deeply in love, but they both felt a little tipsy while chatting.

In fact, it is just a natural result. The heart has already been intoxicated, so how can the person not be intoxicated?

In Xu Li's heart, besides the deep friendship, there is also the regret that you were not yet born when I was born, and you were already old when I was born. You hate that I was born late, and I hate that you were born early!

Chapter 39: Deep Love (Xu Li is moved)

At dawn, Xu Li woke up from a deep sleep, went to the bathroom, and returned to the bed.

Seeing that Han Tao was still sleeping soundly, she sat down, looked at him infatuatedly, and her fingers unconsciously stroked his face.

Han Tao suddenly opened his eyes, stretched out his hand to pull her into his arms, then pecked her lightly on the lips and said with a smile: "How do you feel? Does your foot still hurt?"

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore!" Xu Li shook her head and replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Han Tao hugged her delicate body and turned over, their eyes met, and everything was said without words.

Seeing Xu Li's willing look, Han Tao said nothing, touched her soft and fragrant body, and lowered his head to kiss her.

"Woo~~!"

Xu Liwu looked at Han Tao with hazy eyes, sobbed a few times, and then hooked his neck to respond enthusiastically. She was moistened by the rain and dew again, and she was more charming and charming.

After making love, the exhausted Xu Li leaned lazily in Han Tao's arms, and the two fell asleep in each other's arms.

Time passed, and a ray of sunlight shone into the bedroom, falling on a rosy and shiny soft face.

Jingle Bell!

The alarm clock rang. Because of the passion at dawn, Xu Li, with a rosy face, moaned and woke up from her happy and wonderful nap.

After skillfully reaching out to turn off the alarm clock, she subconsciously touched the side, but it was empty, no one was there!

This made Xu Li feel empty inside. She woke up suddenly, sat up, and looked around with wide eyes.

It wasn't until she walked out of the bedroom that she found Han Tao sitting on the sofa, reading an English psychology book in his hand. He looked solemn, noble and elegant.

Thinking of his gentleness and dominance, Xu Li felt her heart trembling. This man who was three years younger than her was simply irresistible.

Thinking of this, Xu Li planned to prepare breakfast for the man who had captured her body and mind.

She smiled and put on the pajamas draped over her body, then walked behind the man with her shoulders half exposed, hugged his neck, and rested her head on his shoulder. While reading the psychology book in his hand, she said softly:

"So amazing, you can even read psychology books in English?"

"Of course!"

Han Tao nodded slightly, looking at the delicate body as white as jade under the loose pajamas with half-exposed shoulders, and said in a gentle voice:

"I also studied psychology. I watched a lot of it when I participated in training before, especially psychological tactics, which I studied intensively."

Hearing this, Xu Li thought of Han Tao's experience. Whether as a lawyer or in the investigative force, he must have learned more than just psychological tactics and was probably very proficient in them.

Thinking of this, Xu Li smiled and said, "I almost forgot about this. Look, I'll go make breakfast. What do you want to eat?"

Han Tao put down the book in his hand and said in a doting voice:

"Breakfast is ready. I made porridge, eggs, and some side dishes. Is there anything else you want to eat? I'll go get some..."

"It's all ready. Is this considered a loving breakfast?"

Xu Li looked at Han Tao with tenderness in her eyes, her face filled with happiness.

"Go wash up quickly, I'll serve the porridge, and after dinner I'll take you to the clinic!"

Han Tao walked into the kitchen while talking. Maybe the two of them were just impulsive before, but after today, their relationship needs to be redefined.

"Okay, then I'll go wash my face and brush my teeth first!"

As she spoke, Xu Li walked into the bathroom. After a while, she came out with toothpaste and toothbrush, half of her body leaned out, looked at Han Tao and said:

"It's not that troublesome, I can just take a taxi. Go and do your own thing!"

“Walking too much will make it worse, I’ll take you there within the week.

Besides, I'm going to the Central Building in Lujiazui, which is not far away!"

Han Tao responded to Xu Li while bringing breakfast to the table.

"Do you treat me like a child? Don't worry, I can take care of myself!"

As they were talking, Xu Li had already finished washing up, changed her clothes, and sat down at the dining table.

Han Tao didn't respond. He placed a bowl of warm millet porridge in front of her, then sat down and buried his head in his food. His attitude was clear: there was no room for negotiation.

"It smells so good!"

Seeing this, Xu Li stopped worrying about it and started eating breakfast.

After she drank the whole bowl of millet porridge, she felt a warmth spreading from her stomach to all over her body.

Although simple, this home-cooked breakfast is very warm, allowing Xu Li to feel the long-lost warmth again, and it tastes very sweet.

After breakfast, Xu Li went to a clinic near Xujiahui under Han Tao's escort.

...................................................

At the same time, in Mingtang Law Firm, in Director Li Gongming’s office.

Deputy Director Tang Ying's apprentice, Lawyer Bai Ning, knocked on the door and walked in, looking at Li Gongming and said:

"Director, I heard that you're going to hand over the Victory Group case to Lawyers Chen and Xu from Team Two?"

Director Li Gongming looked up at her and nodded.

"Yes. What's the matter, Lawyer Bai? Is there any problem?"

Lawyer Bai Ning said, "Director Li, Team Two has just had a new chief lawyer, and they're not familiar with the business yet. Chen Ran and the others don't have a good reputation in the industry because of what happened before. Is it appropriate for them to take on such a big case? After all..."
