"What is he planning?" Li Mulan looked outside the operating room and asked, "Is he worried about me?"
Li Shiyu nodded. "Yes. Boss said that your injuries are his fault. He should be waiting outside for us to finish the operation."
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and bandage me," Li Mulan said calmly.
"As long as you don't torture yourself, you don't need to be bandaged," Li Shiyu said angrily.
"Stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and bandage me." Li Mulan had made up his mind to wrap the bandages around his body.
"Why? Brother, if you don't give me a reason, not only will I not bandage you, I will also tell Boss the truth. "Li Shiyu wanted to know what Li Mulan wanted to do.
"Li Shiyu, sometimes I'm glad that you chose the path of a military doctor. If not, with your personality, you would have been chewed up by the Li family who only cares about benefits." A cold smile appeared on Li Mulan's face. He stood up and slowly brushed away a strand of hair on Li Shiyu's forehead. "My silly brother, don't tell me you still don't know what my motive is?"
Li Shiyu frowned slightly when he saw Li Mulan like this. He was a smart person. He thought about what Li Mulan had done in Lingtian and instantly understood. "You want to be the one that Boss values the most?"
"Haha, you're not that stupid." Li Mulan suddenly knocked Li Shiyu's forehead and said, "With Ling Lan's ability, Lingtian Mecha Clan will eventually become a real division. In the future, Ling Lan will definitely become one of the regiment commanders. Our Li family always wanted to have military power but we were stopped by the military and other factions. Originally, Li Yingjie was supposed to go to the fourth division and help the Li family build a career there. However, who knew that he would follow Ling Lan here … causing all three of us to fall into a trap."
Li Mulan frowned. "This is forcing us to follow Ling Lan to the end. If he fails, our Li family will be wasted. However, if he succeeds, with the current situation, our Li family might not be able to get what we want."
Li Shiyu was enlightened. "Boss has too many capable people under him. We are not the most outstanding."
"That's right. You are better. Ling Lan can't do without you. However, your identity as a military doctor will prevent you from entering the core of the military. Although Li Yingjie and I became the team leaders of the mecha teams, there are too many competitors. Compared to Zilong, Luo Lang, Xie Yi and the others, we are not outstanding. We might even be slightly inferior. Not to mention Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong who came later. "
"Our position in the Lingtian Mecha Clan is very awkward." Li Mulan smiled faintly. "Since our glory is tied to Ling Lan, I must think of a way to become the person that Ling Lan values the most. I won't give this position to anyone else."
"So, you want Boss to feel guilty and then compensate you?" Li Shiyu finally understood what Li Mulan was thinking. His expression changed slightly. Was it really good to get something out of a scheme? Thinking about Ling Lan's cold and decisive side, he shivered subconsciously. "That won't do. Once Boss knows that this is your scheme, he will definitely destroy you. He won't allow anyone to scheme against him."
"My silly brother, then let him not know." Li Mulan smiled and looked at him. "Or, are you going to betray me and the entire Li family?"
Li Mulan's smile slowly spread. His eyes curved into crescents and he smiled brightly. Although he was still as beautiful as a flower and as warm as spring, Li Shiyu only felt a chill in his heart.
"But, Boss …" Li Shiyu still wanted to stop Li Mulan from making this decision.
"Shiyu, don't forget that you're also a member of the Li family," Li Mulan said calmly. "You can not agree with me, but don't ruin my plan. I don't want to add a scene of brothers fighting against each other."
Li Shiyu's expression changed drastically. He looked at Li Mulan. Li Mulan's beautiful face no longer had a smile on it. There was only endless coldness left.
"I understand." Li Shiyu took the bandage and slowly walked to Li Mulan's side. He started to bandage him.
Receiving the injuries you suffered and experiencing the pain you went through, wouldn't this make me closer to you? Li Mulan looked down. He hid the complicated look in his eyes that only he knew.
Li Shiyu, who was half-kneeling on the ground, used the bandage to bandage the last wound. When he was tying the last knot, his hand paused for a moment. He finally asked the question that he had been holding back for so long. "You won't harm Boss, right?"
Li Mulan smiled. He patted Li Shiyu's head lightly and said softly, "My silly brother, we're in the same boat as Ling Lan. If we harm him, it's the same as harming us. Everything I do is for the good of everyone."
"Brother, remember what you said today. If I find out that you've done something to let Boss down, even if it means killing each other, I will tell Boss everything." Li Shiyu finally made up his mind. He still couldn't do something that went against his beliefs.
Li Mulan's expression turned cold when he heard Li Shiyu's words. He was silent for a few seconds before he laughed coldly. "As expected, you didn't inherit the Li family's viciousness, ruthlessness and greed. This is good too … I'll take responsibility for everything in the Li family."
"As long as you do what you say, I'll always be a member of the Li family." Li Shiyu raised his head and looked at Li Lanfeng with a serious expression. The Li family was the place where he was born, raised, and nurtured. There were people he loved in the family. If there was a possibility, he definitely didn't want to have a falling out with his family.
However, there were some bottom lines that couldn't be crossed. Li Shiyu had his own principles. Even if these things were laughable in the eyes of some people.
"Don't worry. I'm a man of my words." Li Mulan closed his eyes. He didn't want to continue this topic.
The door of the operating theater was finally opened. Li Lanfeng and Li Shiyu walked out. They saw Ling Lan sitting on the chair beside them. She was waiting for them with her eyes closed.
"It's done?" Ling Lan opened her eyes when she heard the sound.
"Shiyu's technique is very good." Li Lanfeng tugged at his military uniform. He smiled and said, "This is great. I can finally enjoy the treatment you gave me back then."
Ling Lan saw that Li Lanfeng's neck was tied up with layers of bandages. It seemed like his injury was very serious. Li Shiyu had no choice but to use this method to stop the bleeding.
"How's the situation?" Ling Lan turned to look at Li Shiyu. Compared to Li Lanfeng, she trusted Li Shiyu more.
Li Lanfeng also turned to look at Li Shiyu. Li Shiyu noticed the warning in his elder brother's eyes. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. "It's okay. However, he needs to rest for a while. If not, the wound might reopen again."
