The deal was settled.
"Put your clothes on," An Nuan really could not stand facing someone naked.
"My ankle is broken," Ye Jinghuai said plainly.
Just as An Nuan was about to speak.
"My arm is also broken," Ye Jinghuai added.
So.
How the hell did you take your clothes off then.
An Nuan gritted her teeth as she picked up the clothes Ye Jinghuai had thrown aside, ready to put them on him.
"I want to wear clean ones," Ye Jinghuai requested.
"You only wore them for half a morning," An Nuan was really about to explode.
"But I still wore them," Ye Jinghuai reasoned.
An Nuan took a deep breath, telling herself not to get angry.
She went out of the bathroom and hurriedly went to Ye Jinghuai's room to get a set of loungewear, and started to dress him.
"The doctor said you can't take a bath, but you can wipe your body with clear water," Ye Jinghuai stated matter-of-factly.
An Nuan just looked at him coldly.
"You can help me wipe it down," Ye Jinghuai said as if it was only natural.
An Nuan really wanted to strangle him.
She controlled her emotions, went to wring out a hot towel.
Just as she walked up to him.
"You should help me back to the bed to lie down first, I'm tired standing on one leg," Ye Jinghuai made another request.
An Nuan really felt that one day she would be angered to death by Ye Jinghuai.
She irritably put down the hot towel, helped the naked Ye Jinghuai lie on the bed.
Ye Jinghuai lay down and said loudly, "Okay, you can wipe me down now."
An Nuan huffed into the bathroom, and came out again with a freshly wrung hot towel.
This time, Ye Jinghuai didn't chatter anymore, just enjoyed it with a smug look on his face.
An Nuan cleaned his upper body.
She unconsciously bit her lip.
She was able to deliberately avoid ogling just now, but now... now it was obvious.
She threw the towel at Ye Jinghuai, "Wipe that yourself."
Ye Jinghuai glanced down.
An Nuan turned her body to the side.
Her whole face was red.
She didn't know how men could be so... shameless.
Ye Jinghuai didn't make things difficult for her either, he wiped himself and then said, "Done."
"Put your underwear on," An Nuan still didn't turn around.
She just didn't want to see any unsavory scene when she turned back.
She didn't want to damage her eyes.
"Miss An doesn't want to appreciate it?" Ye Jinghuai asked.
"Are you very good looking?" An Nuan suppressed her anger.
She always felt like she had been led around by the nose ever since getting involved with this guy.
"Good looking," he answered shamelessly.
An Nuan's face almost exploded from redness.
There probably wasn't a more shameless man in this world than Ye Jinghuai.
In the quiet room.
An Nuan just kept waiting for Ye Jinghuai to put on his pants.
She waited for a long time.
Until An Nuan was somewhat impatient.
There was suddenly a knock on the door from outside.
An Nuan turned back.
As soon as she turned around, she saw not only had Ye Jinghuai put on his underwear, but he had also dressed himself in pants and a top.
This guy didn't have a broken arm and broken leg?!
He was clearly messing with her!
An Nuan suppressed her anger and directly went to the door.
At the door, Qin Jiang was standing there.
An Nuan was startled, "Why did you come?"
"I came to see Brother Huai," Qin Jiang said matter-of-factly.
After saying that, he swaggered in.
An Nuan pursed her lips.
Birds of a feather flock together.
An Nuan was too lazy to pay them any attention, she directly left the room.
"Close the door," Ye Jinghuai instructed.
Qin Jiang closed the door.
"How is it?" Ye Jinghuai cut straight to the chase.
Qin Jiang replied, "I checked, there's no trace of Gu Yan Sheng to be found. Last night I had people intercept those who tried to ram An Nuan's car, two got away, two collided with the big truck, one died on the spot, one was sent to the hospital but rescue efforts failed. Also, there was another one who died when he collided with you. So no evidence was left behind. But from the dead, I found their identities, preliminary judgment is they were mercenaries from Country M. Mercenaries do jobs for money, they won't sell out their employer, so this lead is basically closed off."
Ye Jinghuai's expression inevitably became much more solemn.
"Logically, Gu Yan Sheng would not be able to contact mercenaries. So I think our previous guess was probably right. Gu Yan Sheng must have connections with the elite families." Qin Jiang stated bluntly.
"Keep investigating," Ye Jinghuai said coldly.
"Okay," Qin Jiang nodded.
"Right," Ye Jinghuai suddenly thought of something and said, "Let Gu Yan Sheng know we're investigating him."
"Why?" Qin Jiang frowned, completely puzzled.
Wouldn't it be better to investigate Gu Yan Sheng's background quietly without the other party's awareness?!
"To force him not to act rashly."
"It'd be better if he acted rashly so we can find his weaknesses. Even if we can't find evidence of his connections with the elite families, or who exactly he's connected to, but if we can find evidence of his crimes and hand it to the police, he'd be KO'ed directly, and we wouldn't need to waste time on him..."
"If Gu Yan Sheng is taken out, how will we find out which of the elite families wants to monopolize the distinguished families?!" Ye Jinghuai looked at Qin Jiang, "We still need to rely on Gu Yan Sheng to hook the big fish."
Qin Jiang looked at Ye Jinghuai rather skeptically.
Ye Jinghuai didn't care at all about Qin Jiang's gaze, and instructed again, "These few days while I'm unwell, help me handle things on the Beijing side."
Qin Jiang didn't agree, he didn't need to say anything as he would do it anyway. What he was full of doubt about now was, "You're having me spread the word to force Gu Yan Sheng not to act rashly, is it to protect An Nuan's safety?!"
Ye Jinghuai pressed his lips, not refuting.
Qin Jiang said, "Brother Huai, do you think An Nuan is worth it?"
Ye Jinghuai didn't speak.
"What if she was sent by someone..."
"She wasn't." Ye Jinghuai was very certain.
Qin Jiang really didn't know what else to say to Ye Jinghuai.
If you don't like someone then you don't like them.
But once you do, you really go all out.
He said helplessly, "It's your own business, you know your limits, I won't interfere."
After all, ever since they were young, it had always been whatever he said goes.
When had he ever refuted him!
Ye Jinghuai only nodded slightly, not saying anything.
And things he didn't talk about, generally meant there was no room for discussion.
Qin Jiang didn't bother with idle chatter either, "I'm leaving."
With Ye Jinghuai bedridden, he naturally had a lot more things to do.
"Mm," Ye Jinghuai uttered.
Qin Jiang left the villa.
After a while, the room door was pushed open again.
Ye Jinghuai reflexively thought it was An Nuan, but unexpectedly it was Loyal Uncle carrying a tray with nutritional porridge and vegetables.
Loyal Uncle could clearly feel the disappointment in Ye Jinghuai's eyes.
He smiled tremblingly, "Mistress went to work."
Ye Jinghuai's eyes flickered.
This An Nuan really was heartless.
He almost died for her yesterday, yet today she could still go to work as if nothing had happened?!
"Mistress seemed to have received a call from the company earlier, she sounded quite busy," Loyal Uncle was clearly speaking up for An Nuan.
Ye Jinghuai wasn't receptive at all, his whole face blackened like charcoal.
