Infinite Divine Gears in the City

Chapter 170

“Mom, where’s dad?”

“Your dad went to Olympus to find you the raw materials for duck blood curd.”

A mature woman who looked 70% similar to Luo Li was sitting in front of the bed, stroking her daughter’s hair, her eyes full of heartache.

At this moment, there was a light knock on the door of the ward, and a man in a black suit with a cold face walked in. Madam, Mr. Wang Lei has brought a boy named Li Rui to visit you. He said he is miss’s classmate.

“Oh? Li Rui? I’d like to see which stinky brat caused my precious daughter to be so seriously injured!”

Luo Li’s mother stood up and rolled up her sleeves.

“Argh! Mom, don’t cause trouble!”

Luo Li grabbed her mother’s hand.

“What do you mean by causing trouble? I’m just afraid that you’ll go astray and be deceived by a scumbag!”

“We’re not in that kind of relationship, he … He’s not a scumbag!”

Luo Li cried out in embarrassment.

“Not a scumbag? Was this kid really that charming? You’ve deceived my little princess into falling head over heels for you.”

Luo Li’s mother smiled, her face full of ridicule.

” Get out! You’re not allowed to see him! Otherwise, I’ll die in front of you!”

Luo Li howled and grabbed the pillow, as if she was going to hit it.

Okay, okay, okay. I won’t see you then. What are you being shy about? really.

Looking at her mother’s gossipy expression, Luo Li forced her out of the ward.

Hu~

Fortunately, his father wasn’t around, or he would definitely find trouble with the captain.

Luo Li was the only one left in the ward. She patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, her mother’s words appeared in her mind again, and she became shy for no reason.

What should I do when the captain is here to visit? How embarrassing!

After struggling for a while, she lay on the bed and closed her eyes tightly.

Forget it, I’ll just pretend to be asleep. It won’t be awkward if I can’t see it!

….

After passing through the gorgeous Gothic corridor, Li Rui was led by a man in a black suit to a heavy wooden door.

“The young lady is inside.”

After a respectful bow, the man in the black suit turned around and left, leaving Li Rui standing alone in front of the door.

Li Rui let out a breath and suppressed the guilt and uneasiness in his heart. He knocked on the door three times, but he didn’t hear a response from inside for a long time.

He pushed open the door silently and a large, pure white bed came into view.

Her golden hair was scattered on the pillow like a blooming flower.

Li Rui quietly walked to the bed and sat on the chair, staring at Luo Li’s pale face.

Although her skin was usually fair and tender, it had never been so bloodless and sickly like this.

He reached out and gently stroked her hair. The dazzling golden threads had also lost their luster at this time and had become a little dry.

Li Rui’s heart felt like it was being pricked by a needle, and he couldn’t breathe.

After a long time, he pinched Luo Li’s face.

“When are you going to stop pretending to be asleep?”

Her eyes rolled and a pair of blue eyes met Li Rui’s gaze.

“When did you find out?”

“Next time, don’t smile so obviously when you’re being touched on the head. You’re squinting your eyes.”

“Captain, you’re so annoying!”

Luo Li shyly grabbed a pillow and smacked it on Li Rui’s face.

Putting the pillow aside as if nothing had happened, Li Rui stared into Luo Li’s eyes and whispered in a sincere and guilty tone, “”I’m sorry,” she said.

“So what? Aren’t companions supposed to help each other?”

Luo Li raised a bright smile and waved her hand without care.

Li Rui also smiled and nodded, “”You’re right, companions should help each other.”

As he spoke, he used his fingernail to cut open the tip of his index finger. “Come, open your mouth.”

“What do you want … Wuwuwu …”

He poked his finger into Luo Li’s mouth, and suddenly the wound was like an open faucet, and blood flowed out continuously.

Luo Li struggled to shake her head, but Li Rui’s other hand held her cheek in place.

With the [ eternal indestructible tribulation ] and the [ blood God bead ] controlling his body, the small wound on Li Rui’s fingertip would not heal at all. His blood was like a dam releasing water, flowing out a thousand miles.

“Gulp … Gulp … Lei … It poked his forehead and throat … (You’re poking my throat.)”

“Oh, I’m sorry.”

She had just pulled her finger out a little when a warm and smooth tongue wrapped around her, trying to block the wound.

Li Rui’s fingers gently twisted, and his tongue suddenly lost its target.

He played with Luo Li’s tongue with his fingers and Li Rui’s face turned red.

Regardless of her struggle, Li Rui increased the speed of bleeding.

“Gulp … Gulp … Captain, I’m full, I can’t drink anymore …”

“I really can’t drink anymore, my stomach is full …”

After a long time, seeing that Luo Li really couldn’t swallow it, Li Rui took his finger out of her mouth.

“Burp~”

After a burp, Luo Li looked at the wound on Li Rui’s hand with heartache.

it’s fine. It’s just a little blood. I’ll be able to replenish it with a big meal when I go back.

Li Rui smiled and raised his finger. Under the effect of the [ eternal indestructible tribulation ], the wound closed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“Don’t be like this in the future.”

“Didn’t you say that companions should help each other?”

but that’s not the kind of help method …

don’t think I don’t know why you got close to me in the first place. You just want to suck my blood.

Li Rui gently knocked on Luo Li’s head and scolded her with a smile.

“I didn’t …”

Luo Li retorted without confidence.

alright, stop being so pretentious. You saved my life this time. What’s a little blood to you? ”

Li Rui stood up from the chair and suddenly, his vision turned black. He staggered and held onto the edge of the bed to prevent himself from falling down.

“Captain, are you alright?”

“I’m fine. I got up too quickly.”

He forced a smile and touched Luo Li’s head.

“Rest well, I’ll come to see you in two days.”

Regardless of Luo Li’s persuasion to stay, Li Rui quickly left the ward.

As soon as he closed the door, Li Rui’s forehead was covered in sweat. The blood on his lips and cheeks quickly faded, and his breathing became heavy and rapid.

Damn, I gave Luo Li too much …

Li Rui held onto the wall and slowly walked forward. A bitter smile appeared on his face.

The things in front of him became blurry, and his throat was so dry that it was as if he hadn’t drunk water for three days.

He walked to the reception hall with difficulty. Wang Lei was sipping a pot of tea and leisurely reading the newspaper.

Without caring about etiquette, Li Rui grabbed the teapot and drank it in one gulp.

The boiling hot tea was quickly absorbed and combined with the warm current in the empty stomach, urging the bone marrow in his body to start producing new blood.

Li Rui let out a long breath and sat down on the sofa. After a while, his face had a trace of color.

“What’s wrong with you?”

I feel like my body has been hollowed out …

Li Rui shook his head and leaned back on the sofa, not wanting to speak.

Wang Lei took a deep breath and looked at Li Rui in disbelief.
