Became a vicious male mother

"come over."

Inside the room, Li Taihe was stretching out his hand, laboriously wiping behind him.

This action was devoid of any elegance; it was rare, extremely rare.

Gu Xinglan quickly put the noodles in her hand on the table and hurried to the bedside.

"Do you know how to massage?" Li Taihe turned his head slightly, revealing only his profile as he looked at him.

When the crystal chandelier above shone on that eye, it appeared soft and without any sense of oppression.

He nodded and carefully took the black bottle.

The bottle was cold to the touch, and Gu Xinglan quietly glanced at the other person's back.

His back also looked unreal, with tight lines. There were no medals or anything like the scarred man I had imagined. It was so delicate that it was comparable to his skin that had been enhanced by a system cheat.

It's not that he's praising this person, but at least the system's cheat system gave him a sense of realism, but this person is unreal in every way, exuding an indescribable sense of unreality.

It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

The ointment poured from the black bottle was dark and sticky, with a pungent smell and a faint herbal scent.

He applied the ointment with a little more force to Li Taihe's back before asking, "Mr. Li... may I ask where you've been these past few days?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the other person looked over.

That expression seemed to ask him why he had suddenly become so polite.

Gu Xinglan revealed a fawning smile: "I've thought about this over and over these past few days, tossing and turning, and I've figured it out! My feelings for you aren't love, they're worship, the greatest worship ever! Following you is the perfect combination of timing, location, and people!"

At this point, he nodded firmly: "During the auction, just think of me as being obsessed. After all, I come from a poor background, and it was rare for such an important person to treat me like this. I was overjoyed, and it was inevitable that I would admit my mistake..."

He talked a lot, all the while watching someone's expression.

The other party actually started to think about it.

“Is that so…” Li Taihe reached for the water glass on the bedside table, swallowed, and laughed, “Think carefully, you’re risking your life for me.”

"You gave me a chance to be reborn, how can that not be considered giving me a life?" Gu Xinglan increased the pressure, rubbing the muscles on his back until they turned red.

"I didn't call you here to hear your pledge of loyalty."

Li Taihe shifted his position slightly to avoid Li Taihe's forceful right hand, and looked over with half-closed eyes, the teasing smile gone: "Tell me about what happened these past two days."

Sure enough, that's what he was called here for.

This person must have their own channels for gathering information, but how can they compare to someone who has personally experienced it?

Gu Xinglan adopted a storyteller's posture and recited the police station's statement. Finally, he sighed, "Alas, if I hadn't been lucky, I probably would have been boiled into pieces of meat by now."

After saying that, he raised his eyelids and looked at Li Taihe.

I noticed that the man's smile had returned, but combined with his haggard appearance, it looked like a forced smile.

"As for you, I see that Assistant Li and the others are all exhausted..." Gu Xinglan said in a tone of mutual confiding, her eyes fixed on the other person.

Just as he expected.

Again, it's been read but no reply.

Have you seen this person before?

Li Taihe took out a slightly faded photograph from the documents on the counter.

The photo shows a huge iron sign that reads "ospizio per orfani" standing tall, with a nun and a man holding a book standing below. The man is wearing a fitted black long robe, which suggests he is a Christian priest.

Beyond that, there was a large group of children, among whom only one child's face was in color, seemingly having been repaired by external technology.

"This child's face... I think it looks familiar."

“Giorgio”.

Li Taihe inexplicably uttered a word.

His accent is standard, and he pronounces it very similar to two certain words.

"Zhou Shao?"

"Hmm, more or less, do you remember?"

The man stared at him, his eyes deep and dark, as if stained with thick ink, so dark that even the yellow light overhead couldn't penetrate them.

"It's more than just an impression; he almost killed me..." Just thinking about this person sends chills down my spine.

This person almost caused him to lose his chrysanthemum.

Even the sighs that came out were tinged with grievance.

But the next second, what the person next to him said only added fuel to the fire:

"You really are lucky..."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xinglan frowned. Seeing the man deep in thought, and unable to interrupt him, she could only vigorously rub his back.

"I should have brought you along." Li Taihe glanced at him lightly, got up, broke free from his hand, and got off the bed.

"Those letters, they're Italian, aren't they?" He'd only ever seen the Italian Mafia in movies. Gu Xinglan got out of bed and walked to the table. "You guys really went to Venice to see the churches?"

"I didn't see a church, but I did see a lot of gunfire."

The person speaking was holding a bowl and eating noodles.

The noodles are handmade and incredibly chewy, not to mention the delicious broth.

Seeing that this person had eaten the noodles he made, asked him to help apply medicine, and talked so much, he suddenly felt like he was getting closer to this person's inner circle, so much so that the next second he said, "You guys go abroad and fight with people?"

When the request was made, no response was received.

Li Taihe seemed very tired and hungry, his face was pale, and he ate his noodles very quickly.

There are airplane meals on the plane, not to mention that you can order takeout everywhere when you return to China.

"Take it away." After finishing his meal, Li Taihe moved the bowl toward the door.

This means they are being asked to leave.

Looking at the man's dark back and half-wet hair, the feeling of unreality that had just been there vanished.

Who said this person is lifeless? This one is so vibrant!

Gu Xinglan, holding the bowl, withdrew her scrutinizing gaze: "President Li, it's not that I'm being nosy, but if there's anything I can help you with, please let me know."

"you?"

Li Taihe sat in the leather chair, seemingly lost in thought.

A few strands of hair falling across her forehead softened the sharpness in her eyes, but her voice was solemn: "I have a lot to do next. You have two choices: either become the female head of the Li family, or stay in your current position."

"As for escaping," Li Taihe said earnestly, "a foreign country is your only refuge."

Was this a harsh threat or a well-intentioned reminder?

Gu Xinglan chose without hesitation: "The first one, I choose the first one."

After a moment, Li Taihe's expression softened slightly: "Some things are not as simple as you think. Once you get involved, you may be doomed."

Gu Xinglan felt a chill run down her spine.

Are we about to do something big?

It seems this person has been personally laying the groundwork for something, unlike someone who's genuinely in business.

Which CEO of a large company doesn't enjoy life properly, but instead travels around doing things that jeopardize his livelihood?

"I'm willing to go through fire and water, but I have one condition."

"explain."

"Li Hetai".

Gu Xinglan moved her throat.

The person on his mind isn't you, but your son.

"he?"

Li Taihe raised his eyes, his brows furrowing slightly.

“I think he… is so pitiful. It’s like he saw me struggling alone when I was a child with no one to take care of me. I want to be like an older brother to him,” Gu Xinglan said firmly, against her conscience.
