“Brother?”
Mo Sen carried him to the hospital bed before letting go.
“Brother, why didn’t you call me to carry you over?”
Li Wu glared at Mo Sen with anger, annoyed at this presumptuous, meddlesome doctor.
“Take good care of yourself at home and recover. I’ll see you when you come back for your cast removal.”
Mo Sen affectionately patted his head.
Then he turned and left the ward without even glancing at Li Wu.
Why was everyone staring at brother so covetously?
It was truly irritating…
Li Wu withdrew his fierce gaze and turned to say gently to Shu Xian:
“Brother, let’s go home.”
Once home, brother would be his alone.
“Mm, let’s go home~”
He had been so bored in the hospital.
Shu Xian had spent several days at home eating, drinking, and lying around. He was going stir-crazy.
“Brother, do you want to go out and have some fun?”
Li Wu knew he must be bored staying at home, so he had already arranged where to take Shu Xian.
“Yes!”
Anywhere was fine, as long as he could leave this house!
“Okay, I’ll help brother into the car.”
Great, finally going out. Li Wu was so thoughtful.
He would give him a big gift for his birthday.
After getting out of the car, Shu Xian looked up and saw the big words on the sign.
He decided to change Li Wu’s big birthday gift to a small one instead.
Li Wu actually brought him to an opera. Shu Xian was a hillbilly who couldn’t appreciate such refined stuff.
It was truly from one boring place to another.
Wuwu.
No helping it; the original owner loved opera.
Li Wu must have found out about it from somewhere and brought him here.
“Brother, how is it?”
Watching the actors on stage singing the opera, Li Wu whispered in his ear.
“Not bad, not bad. Pretty good.”
Shu Xian perfunctorily replied in a low voice.
The singing was so sleep-inducing… so hypnotic.
He had been fighting off drowsiness the whole time. It was torture.
『Host, host, perk up.』
『There’s a male lead fluctuation.』
As soon as 006 spoke, Shu Xian instantly wasn’t sleepy anymore.
『Where, where?』
Shu Xian looked around, figuring that whoever was the best-looking would be the one.
『Host, I don’t have a specific location.』
Alright, he would just sit tight and wait for him to show up.
“Brother, what are you looking for?”
Looking for your husband.
“Nothing, shh.”
Shu Xian made a shushing gesture at him.
Now there were only two male leads left who hadn’t appeared.
One was the domineering President Gu Tingyuan, and the other was the doctor Yu Jingxing.
Which one would it be?
『006, in the original plot, Li Wu didn’t encounter any male leads at the opera house, did he?』
『Yes, host. It’s normal for the plot to deviate a little.』
『As long as the protagonist shou meets the male leads, we just need to complete the tasks that push their relationship forward.』
006 explained.
『Mm, okay, okay.』
Then Li Wu was basically a human radar, hahaha.
As long as he followed him, meeting the male leads would be pretty fast.
『By the way, 006, why haven’t you released the task to push Li Wu and Fu Yichen’s relationship yet?』
Fu Yichen had already appeared many days ago.
『Host, no rush.』
『Once all four pursuers appear, all the tasks will come out at once.』
『You’ll be very busy then, so cherish your rest time.』
『Mm, okay then.』
Shu Xian instantly felt much more at ease. He would just go with the flow.
The male lead would meet Li Wu on his own soon.
He didn’t need to worry about it.
Thinking about it, Shu Xian started dozing off.
His head kept nodding down. Seeing this, Li Wu directly let Shu Xian rest his head on his shoulder.
In his daze, he fell asleep leaning against him.
He only woke up near the end of the show.
“Mm, is it over?”
Shu Xian saw a row of actors on stage holding hands and bowing to the audience.
He asked sheepishly.
“Mm, did brother sleep well?”
“Sorry, little brother. They sang so beautifully that I got lost in it and fell asleep.”
Shu Xian said without blushing or flinching.
He also felt a bit sorry.
Li Wu had arranged this for him. He didn’t know if he would be upset that he fell asleep.
“It’s fine, brother. As long as brother is happy, I’m happy.”
“Mm, little brother is so sweet.”
Shu Xian rubbed his cheek. Where could you find such an understanding little brother?
Those pursuers were really lucky.
“Brother, let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Shu Xian, leaning on his crutches, walked out of the venue with Li Wu.
He was getting more and more skilled with the crutches, almost as fast as normal walking.
Hey, wait!
No, no!
Where was the male lead?
Shu Xian turned and stared wide-eyed at Li Wu.
Where is your husband?
“Brother, what’s wrong?”
Li Wu was puzzled. What was wrong with brother?
Shu Xian blinked his slightly sore eyes and said, “Nothing, I need to pee. Wait here for me, I’ll go myself.”
Shu Xian didn’t give him a chance to answer. Leaning on his crutches, he headed toward the bathroom.
Li Wu, afraid of hurting his pride, didn’t follow.
『006, what’s going on? Where’s the male lead?』
The theater was emptying out. He hadn’t left too, had he?
『Host, I detect he’s still in the theater.』
Li Wu was at the entrance. Maybe he would get approached soon.
After finishing in the bathroom, Shu Xian stayed inside, not leaving.
He tried to take his time going out, to increase the chance of them running into each other.
Hehe, thinking this, Shu Xian couldn’t help laughing out loud.
“Is it funny?”
“Ah?”
Shu Xian snapped back to reality and realized there was someone else using the bathroom next to where he was standing.
“Uh, sorry, I wasn’t laughing at you. I was just spacing out.”
The man in front of him was much taller, about 1.9 meters by the look of it.
His expression was cold and stern. His gaze alone could kill him.
“Sorry, sorry.”
Better apologize first.
Wuwu, so scary.
“Enjoying the view?”
“Huh?”
What was that?
“Uh… I wasn’t looking.”
Shu Xian subconsciously glanced downward, thinking, “You haven’t even taken it out.”
“Get lost.”
Shu Xian’s downward glance angered the man.
He barked harshly.
“I really wasn’t looking at you.”
“Fine, fine, I’ll leave right now.”
Shu Xian fumbled for his crutches, but the crutches leaning against the wall slipped to the floor.
He bent down several times but couldn’t pick them up.
“Sorry, could you help me pick them up?”
Shu Xian was so flustered his face turned red, afraid the man might hit him.
An awful silence.
『Host, host, he’s the male lead, Gu Tingyuan.』
Hearing 006’s reminder, Shu Xian couldn’t help trembling.
This ruthless, domineering Gu Tingyuan was even more ruthless than Fu Yichen.
He was best at using others to kill.
Wuwuwu, he had offended him the moment they met. So scary.
Shu Xian abandoned his crutches and, standing on one foot, hopped and limped out while supporting himself against the wall.
