Chapter 493
At this time, Huo XIwen had already changed into a clean set of clothes and was sitting on the bed, trying to disinfect himself with iodine.
Chen Yanzhuo walked up to her and squatted down in front of her. When they got close, she could smell the faint scent of his shower gel.
Taking the iodide and cotton swabs from her hands, he gently wiped the healing wound.
In the end, it was just a superficial wound. Compared to yesterday, the injury was much better.
"Don’t move on your own until the wound is healed." He stood up after cleaning the wound and the rubbish.
"It’s much better now. I’ll walk slower and be careful. There shouldn’t be any problems, right?" She had not gotten used to being carried by her these past two days.
"If you want to be a bit slower, it’s not impossible." He looked into her eyes and "warned" her.
Huo XIwen knew that his words made sense, so he didn’t refute him anymore, and only pursed his lips as he said, "I know, I won’t walk anymore."
Chen Yanzhuo’s mouth revealed a faint smile. He bent down and picked her up from the bed.
"What are you doing?" Being hugged like this, Huo XIwen’s entire body tensed up.
"Didn’t you decide not to walk? I’ll carry you down to eat. " As he spoke, he lifted his foot and walked out.
"..." Huo XIwen looked at the side of his face and thought darkly in his heart. He couldn’t be intentionally preventing himself from walking, and was trying to take the opportunity to hug her, right?
However, thinking about it, this guy had a girlfriend, so he probably wasn’t interested in her.
He went downstairs to the dining hall and saw that the dishes had already been placed on the table.
Today’s dinner was prepared for Chinese food. This was the first time she had eaten Chinese food after several meals in the winery.
"And the French cook?" She couldn’t help but ask as she looked at the rich and spicy red sauce in front of her.
"Sir was afraid that you would be tired of eating Western food, so you specifically arranged for a Chinese chef to come over today. "The taste is based on Mr. Chen’s preference, I hope you will like it, Miss Huo." Old Li explained.
Huo XIwen didn’t expect that Chen Yanzhuo would still be in the mood to think about what she should eat in this day and place. Was this man crazy, or was he too meticulous?
Looking at the delicious food in front of her, her already empty stomach finally began to feel hungry.
He picked up his chopsticks and put a piece of spicy chicken in his mouth without waiting for Chen to say "go".
The spicy, crispy, and crispy roasted chicken in her mouth gave off an extremely stimulating taste. At the same time, she inhaled deeply. "So spicy, so spicy ..."
"Drink some water." While Chen Yanzhuo was speaking, the teacup had already been brought to her mouth.
Huo XIwen quickly took the teacup and took a gulp of the warm wheat tea, feeling much better in an instant.
After that, he saw Chen Yanzhuo leisurely eating that seemingly hot dish.
"You can eat something so spicy? Didn’t you grow up abroad? "Why is the taste so heavy?" Huo XIwen was a little shocked as she asked curiously.
"Can’t you eat chilies when you’ve grown up abroad?" he asked, looking at her in amusement.
At this time, Huo XIwen thought of Fu Muyun. Didn’t he grow up abroad, but she loved to eat heavy food?
Suddenly, he felt that nothing was out of the question.
"Eat some fish. Steamed, not spicy." Probably because he was worried that she wouldn’t be able to eat very spicy dishes, Chen Yanzhuo considerately picked up a piece of steamed fish and placed it in her bowl.
"Thank you." Huo XIwen lowered her head and put the fish into her mouth. The fresh taste of the fish made her instantly feel extremely happy, "Delicious."
Chen called out, looking at her blissful expression, smiled, and asked Old Li to help her get some more food.
The two chatted as they ate.
When he was done eating, Huo XIwen suddenly thought of something, and said to Old Li beside him, "Uncle Li, we can take care of ourselves here. Go and busy yourself with what you need to do."
Old Li knew she had something she wanted to say to Chen Yanzhuo. She glanced at Chen Yanzhuo, who nodded at him.
After Old Li left, Huo XIwen was about to open his mouth, but Chen Yanzhuo interrupted first. "The operation was very successful. Almost all the members of the drug trafficking group were taken in one fell swoop. However, that old fox, Qiluo, ran away."
"What?" Gone away? The man we saw last time at the hotel? When Huo XIwen heard this, he was extremely shocked.
"Yes, but his subordinates have been arrested. The police have issued a wanted poster and are searching the entire city for him. I believe he won’t be able to hide for long."
"What a pity, if only we could capture him." Huo XIwen sighed.
"There was no conclusive evidence of his crime before, so there was no way to arrest him. Now that there’s evidence, even if he’s running away, he won’t be able to escape for long. Sooner or later, we’ll catch him. You don’t have to worry about this case anymore. " Chen Yanzhuo said.
Huo XIwen knew that Chen Yanzhuo wanted her to stop thinking about this matter. Now that she knew that criminals were out of the question, she felt a lot more relaxed. As for that fish that escaped from the net, it wasn’t something she needed to worry about.
"Unfortunately, I was not able to participate in this operation. If I were here, that Loki might not be able to get away. " Huo XIwen muttered to himself.
Hearing this, Chen Yanzhuo laughed, "You sure are confident in yourself."
"Of course. After all, I’m smarter than all of you." Huo XIwen raised his eyebrows proudly, drank the last mouthful of soup, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and rubbed his well-fed stomach: "I’m full now, I can get a good night’s sleep."
"What is it? You didn’t sleep well last night? " Chen raised his eyebrows, looking at her with his dark eyes.
"It’s not that I’m not sleeping well, it’s just that I’m having nightmares." Huo Xi Wen scratched his head.
"What nightmare?" he asked.
"I dreamt that you were covered in blood ..."
"Is that why you’ve been trying to contact me today?" Chen Yanzhuo finally understood why she was so anxious to find him.
"That’s right, you don’t know. I was dreaming, and it rained so heavily. Then, your blood scared me when it was right in front of me." Recalling the nightmare he had last night, Huo XIwen still felt a lingering fear in his heart, "Coincidentally, the moment I woke up in the morning and saw that the weather outside was not good, it started to rain. I asked them where you went and they said that you left before daybreak. If you leave so early, I don’t think it’s because the company has something that they need you to deal with, then you can only trade with the drug dealers, so I’m a little worried about you. "
