Chapter 401 Scars
She hugged him tightly, fearing that he would disappear if she let go.
Li Lei patted her thin back gently and said in a gentle voice: "It's okay, Xiao Ling, didn't I come here? You have suffered a lot these days."
The tears she had retracted fell without warning.
He held her face and said, "Crying like a little cat."
Her tears fell even harder, and while crying, she choked and said: "You still know how to come to me! Do you know how much I miss you! I'm so worried, so worried..." Worried about his injury, worried about him She didn't want to be as safe as Chu Chen and Sister Mai Na said. She would always have trouble sleeping and eating if she didn't witness it with her own eyes.
Li Lei wiped her tears bit by bit: "I'm sorry for making you worry." He looked very bad. He was thinner than before, and his whole body was much haggard. His eyes were bloodshot, and his lips were slightly purple. He looked like he hadn't recovered from a serious illness. But even so, he carefully comforted Xia Ling.
Xia Ling also noticed his weakness and recalled that Chu Chen said that he was seriously injured and his spine was damaged. It was lucky that he was not disabled. She looked him up and down hurriedly, and asked with concern: "How is your injury? Are you recovering well? Are you still feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"
With that said, he sat up from the sofa and wanted to check his injuries.
Li Lei raised his hand, seemingly blocking her movement inadvertently. "It doesn't matter to me, my injuries are all healed," he said with a casual smile, "I can run and jump. But you, how are you?"
Is she okay? Thinking of the child in the womb, I just feel that it is a long story.
However, the extent of his injuries had not yet been confirmed. She was not in the mood to explain the matter to him for the time being. She just avoided the topic and reached out to check his body. "Let me see." If she didn't confirm with her own eyes that his body was Without recovering her health, how can she rest assured?
Li Lei was still smiling, and he turned over from the original position of lying on his side to lying on his back, and accurately grabbed her hand trying to unbutton his clothes with one hand: "I told you it's okay, don't touch it."
"No, I want to see it." She insisted. The more he refused to let her see it, the more suspicious she became.
"It's okay."
Xia Ling glared at him unhappily. When did this person become so stingy that he wouldn't even look at her? It’s not like she’s never seen his body before, why is he so twisted?
"Li Lei, will you let me see it or not?"
"I know I have a good figure, and I also like your enthusiasm." He put his arms under his head, smiling ambiguously and innocently, "But you can't be so impatient. Xiao Ling, this is Feng Kun's office, you want Be reserved, it's not good to be seen by others."
The more she talked, the more outrageous it became. She was very angry, but she couldn't help but blush.
He glanced in the direction of the door guiltily, but fortunately, the door was closed.
"By the way," she asked him, "how did you get in?" This is the Emperor Company, and the guards are very tight. From the park gate to the inside of the office, you have to go through layers of checkpoints and identity verifications. How could he be there quietly? Appeared in front of her silently?
"Feng Kun." He lazily spit out two words.
Then she understood. Although Feng Kun was from the emperor, he was on her side and had no reason to stop Li Lei from meeting her. I'm afraid, he also created a lot of conditions for them for this meeting.
She was moved because this move would bring risks to Feng Kun and make him severely offend Pei Ziheng.
All in all, she owed Feng Kun a lot.
"What are you thinking?" Li Lei asked.
Xia Ling's thoughts drifted back, and when she saw that he still refused to take off his clothes, she suddenly got angry: "Go, get down, don't squeeze on the sofa with me in your coat, it's so dirty, wash it off."
He didn't know what happened to him on the way here, and his clothes were covered in mud.
Li Lei lowered his head and looked at himself. I really can't blame him. Mr. Li was afraid that he would come back to find Xia Ling if he was not healed, so he sent many bodyguards to watch him. He had managed to sneak out, jumped out of windows and climbed over walls, and he did whatever he could, so it's no wonder he wasn't dirty.
However, facing the rejection of his beloved woman, he felt aggrieved: "I'm not dirty."
She kicked him with her feet.
He felt even more aggrieved: "It's a big office, how can I clean it?"
She still kicked him, and by the way, she pointed in the direction of the bathroom outside the door with her foot.
Li Lei felt very sad when he saw that she disliked him like this. Like a large pet that was not loved by its owner, he stood up slowly, went to the bathroom, and cleaned himself with the faucet of the sink.
Xia Ling waited for him to go out, pinching the time.
Guessing it was almost done, she also got up and walked towards the bathroom. In any case, she didn't believe Li Lei's nonsense that he was fine. If he was really fine, could he not show her the injury? She had to confirm it with her own eyes.
The office building in the middle of the night is very quiet and empty.
Holding her breath, she tiptoed to the door of the men's bathroom, and pushed the door carefully. It was actually locked by him from inside, Xia Ling was even more convinced that there was something wrong with it. She rushed to the recording studio next door and patted Feng Kun on the shoulder who was reading the score: "Do you know how to open the door of the men's bathroom?"
"What happened?" Feng Kun looked at her in surprise.
"It's too late to explain," she just said, "Quick, tell me how to open it, I must open the door and go in right away."
Seeing that she was in a hurry, Feng Kun didn't ask any further questions, and directly called the security guard on duty, and asked the security guard to unlock the electronic lock of the men's restroom on this floor. The emperor's office facilities are very high-end, this electronic lock is designed to prevent accidents, and can be unlocked through the security system.
As soon as she untied it, Xia Ling rushed out like the wind.
Swinging open the door, she barged into the men's room. For the first time, her sight accurately captured the muscular body of a man in front of the wide mirror under the flowing light. His upper body was naked and his muscles were well-proportioned.
Li Lei's reaction was quick enough. He turned around the moment he heard the movement, from facing away from her to facing her directly. However, Xia Ling still saw the hideous scar on his back - it was a winding, deep and long scar that ran through the entire lower back, like a person split in half. Near this scar, there is an equally deep and long surgical suture, which is so horrific that one cannot imagine the life-and-death struggle he suffered.
"Xiao Ling, you..."
Li Lei wanted to say something, but she had already rushed forward and hugged him. Tears could not stop falling from her eyes. Heartache, guilt, and fear of separation all came to her heart, and she had mixed feelings.
He stood bare-chested in front of the shining mirror, held stiffly by her, and after a while, he turned around and took her into his arms. "Silly Xiaoling, it's already fine. Why are you crying?"
Xia Ling was sobbing harder and buried her head in his chest, unable to lift it up.
