Li Xuyi pulled a chair over with one hand and sat facing Zhao Zixuan, opening a bottle of beer as if nothing had happened. “Okay.”
With that, the two of them started eating barbecue and drinking wine in the ward.
This was fatal for Zhao Zixuan, who only ate porridge for three days!
His forehead twitched violently and his face darkened. “Who told you to come here to eat? Where’s Xu Wanwan?”
“Don’t worry, she won’t come back tonight.” Lin Jianan chewed on the greasy mutton skewers and said in satisfaction, “We’ll take care of you for her today.”
Zhao Zixuan widened his eyes. “Is this how you guys will take care of me?!”
“Do you know how Xu Wanwan takes care of me every time? She would be feeding me at this time, and after dinner, she even has to pour me some water for washing feet!”
Li Xuyi could not take it anymore. He picked up the pillow on the bed and smashed it hard on his face. “Shut up!”
“You… you two!”
Zhao Zixuan was so angry that he could not speak. He got up and was about to press the call button on the bedside.
He had to get the hospital to kick the two of them out!
Just as his hand was about to touch the call button, Li Xuyi shot a cold glance and directly threw the stick that he had just finished eating the barbecue to his hand.
The bamboo stick passed by Zhao Zixuan’s hand steadily, giving him a fright. He quickly withdrew his hand.
“What, you’re not satisfied with me?”
Li Xuyi snorted coldly and walked over with the unfinished beer in his hand. He grabbed Zhao Zixuan’s chin and poured half a bottle of beer on his face.
“Cough, cough!”
Zhao Zixuan choked until he coughed, spitting a mouthful of turbid air. “You’re courting death!”
“Aren’t you good at torturing people? Can’t you take it when we torture you?”
“Do you know who I am? I’m the future successor of the Zhao Corporation. Are you sure you want to shed all pretense of cordiality with me?!” Zhao Zixuan suppressed the anger in his chest and shouted with all his might.
Li Xuyi was unruly and untamed as he looked down on the person lying on the bed. “I don’t care who you are. As long as you’re someone I can’t stand, I’ll have to teach you a lesson.”
Zhao Zixuan was so angry that his whole body was trembling. He wanted to take out his phone to call the people outside.
However, Lin Jianan saw through his thoughts at a glance. She got up and snatched his phone and threw it away elegantly. The phone fell steadily into the glass of water by the bedside.
She laughed wantonly. “Don’t you want to play? I can play with you too.”
Li Xuyi gave her a sideways glance and chuckled. “Learning from me?”
“Who’s learning from you?” Lin Jianan opened another bottle of beer and downed it in one gulp. “Are you guys the only ones who are allowed to act cool?”
Zhao Zixuan clenched his fists tightly and said through gritted teeth, “Are you two just fooling around?!”
The two of them turned their heads at the same time. “Shut up!”
Xu Wanwan rested peacefully for a day. When she went to school the next day, she felt much better.
Lin Jianan and Li Xuyi came to class together, and both of them arrived a little late.
Xu Wanwan felt a little guilty and brought breakfast for them.
The three of them gathered around to eat breakfast. Xu Wanwan could not help but ask, “Did you guys get tired yesterday?”
She knew that taking care of patients in the hospital was very tiring. These things should have been done by herself. If they got tired, she would feel even more guilty.
Lin Jianan waved her hand. “I’m not tired at all. I want to go again tonight!”
“Why don’t you rest for another day and let Li Xuyi and I help you take care of him for another night?”
Li Xuyi ate his breakfast without changing his expression. “Yeah.”
“No need!” Xu Wanwan said seriously, “You guys already helped me a lot yesterday. How can I keep troubling you guys?”
Lin Jianan said, “But it’s really not tiring for the two of us to take care of him.”
Last night, she ate barbecue and drank beer with Li Xuyi in Zhao Zixuan’s ward. After eating and drinking, they played games together again.
Lin Jianan also snatched Zhao Zixuan’s phone and logged into his game account. She made a big hole in it and made him drop a rank overnight.
Now that she thought of Zhao Zixuan’s exasperated and helpless look, she felt very comfortable.
Xu Wanwan did not understand what she meant, but Li Xuyi did.
He teased, “It’s really not tiring.”
“Then you guys can’t go again today,” Xu Wanwan said hurriedly. “This is my business to begin with. I’m already very grateful that you guys can help me.”
“Okay, if you encounter any trouble on your side, let me know immediately.”
Li Xuyi agreed. He guessed that Zhao Zixuan would not dare to mess with Xu Wanwan anymore.
At the Li family home.
‘The Butler hurriedly brought a stack of documents to Li Jingran’s study room.
“Director Li, I have the investigation results from the incident earlier.”
Li Jingran immediately stopped what he was doing and said coldly, “Speak.”
“We found out that the car accident that Miss Xu was involved in was not an accident.”
“On the day of the accident, Xu Mingcheng and Xu Yue drank a lot of alcohol. They didn’t call for a designated driver when Xu Mingcheng was drunk.”
“They happened to be in the lane that Miss Xu passed by, and Xu Mingcheng accidentally ran into her.”
Li Jingran felt a chill all over his body.
If the Xu family continued to make a scene like this, he was not sure what he would do.
“Director Li, Xu Mingcheng was drunk driving this time. But according to our understanding, he has always followed the traffic rules. This time, something happened while he was drinking with Xu Yue. I’m afraid…”
Li Jingran narrowed his cold eyes. “The law doesn’t make Xu Yue a criminal, but the Xu family knows the truth and will not let her go.”
“Director Li, we also found out that the taxi driver who kidnapped Miss Xu that day was also a member of the Xu family.”
“That person was a driver of the Xu family before. The Xu family might be behind the kidnapping of Miss Xu this time. But why did the Xu family team up with Zhao Zixuan to bully Miss Xu?”
After hearing that, Li Jingran analyzed calmly, “Zhao Zixuan got him by the Xu family, so the Xu family naturally had to beg him.”
“But how could they do such a thing to Miss Xu…”
After the Butler learned the truth, he could not help but sigh. If it were not for the timely arrival of their people, Miss Xu would have been forced.
Li Jingran’s mood was extremely heavy. His fingers accidentally knocked on the table and he had already thought of a countermeasure.
“Lasked you to investigate Zhou Lin last time. How’s the progress?”
The Butler came to his senses and immediately took out a document from his bag. “Director Li, we found that Zhou Lin used an alias to give birth to another man’s child overseas.”
Li Jingran pursed his thin lips slightly. He knew that this matter was not that simple.
“Find out the information about that child and send it to me.”
After the Butler left, Li Jingran finished sorting out the things on hand. He then stopped what he was doing and drove to the Li residence.
After visiting the old man, he parked the car by the roadside and slowly rolled down the window. He found Xu Wanwan’s group in his mobile phone contact book. After hesitating for a long time, he finally pressed the dial button.
