The Li family's courtyard was located by the sea dozens of kilometers away from the Central Scout Academy. Li Shiyu took a hover car and arrived at the entrance of the courtyard. He knocked on the door with a hint of nervousness and hope.
The person who welcomed him was the head butler of the Li family. When his eldest cousin brother was five years old and came to Planet Azure to recuperate, this head butler who was loyal to the Li family volunteered to come to Planet Azure to take care of his eldest cousin brother. This made Li Shiyu very grateful to this head butler and he respected him.
"Head butler, it has been a few years since we last met. How are you now?" Li Shiyu smiled warmly and asked the old man who was surprised by his sudden arrival.
The head butler's surprised expression disappeared quickly. He smiled and asked, "Second young master, why are you here? I heard from the family head that you have entered the division and your progress is not bad. Congratulations. "
Li Shiyu replied, "Thank you, head butler." He looked at the courtyard and asked in a low voice, "Brother Mulan, how are you recently?"
When the head butler heard Li Shiyu's question, he suddenly smiled happily. Li Shiyu's eyes lit up. Did this mean that his eldest cousin brother's health was not bad recently?
As expected, Li Shiyu heard good news from the head butler. "Young master's body is recovering now. He should be able to recover soon."
Li Shiyu was excited. He was also curious about which amazing military doctor was able to cure his eldest cousin brother's illness which had troubled him for more than 20 years. Thus, he asked.
The head butler told Li Shiyu that five to six years ago, the young master went out to the beach to relax and met a domain realm master by accident. Perhaps the domain realm master was in a good mood or he liked Li Mulan, so he kindly taught Li Mulan a body strengthening technique. Furthermore, Li Shiyu had been sending over the body strengthening agents he had developed for the past few years. With these two methods, Li Mulan's body finally stopped deteriorating. After these few years of constant practice and the free supply of agents, his condition became better and better.
After hearing this, Li Shiyu finally let go of the responsibility in his heart. However, Li Shiyu was afraid that the head steward was only telling him the good news and not the bad news. Thus, he threw the Moluomi in his hand to the head steward and rushed into the inner courtyard to look for his eldest cousin brother.
The Li family's residence was built in the style of ancient Huaxia's Jiangnan courtyards. There were pavilions, small bridges, and winding corridors. It was very antique. The entire courtyard was split into the outer courtyard and the inner courtyard. The outer courtyard was naturally the place where people with no business resided. At the same time, it was also the place to receive guests. As for the inner courtyard, it was where Li Mulan cultivated. Outsiders were not allowed to enter.
Of course, Li Shiyu wasn't an outsider. Every time he came to the monastery, he could enter the inner courtyard as he pleased. Of course, the Head Butler wouldn't stop him this time. He smiled as he watched Li Shiyu dash in, his eyes full of praise and joy for the Li family.
The inner courtyard was more exquisite than the outer courtyard. First of all, there was a huge garden. Based on the Li family's status and wealth, this garden was definitely not inferior to the imperial garden. Of course, that was if there was still such a thing as an imperial garden.
Li Shiyu was eager to see his eldest cousin brother so he didn't want to take the long winding bridge. He directly jumped over it. Behind the garden, there were a few exquisite buildings. Li Shiyu didn't even think and directly rushed towards the largest and tallest three-storey building.
"Brother!" Li Shiyu directly pushed open the door of a room and rushed in.
The outside of the room was antique but the decorations inside the room were a mix of modern and antique. The two styles that were supposed to clash perfectly merged together. It didn't look out of place at all.
The room was very big. It was estimated to be about three to four hundred square meters. However, it was divided into several sections by luxurious and exquisite bookshelves and antique shelves. After entering the room, there was a living room. There were rows of sofas and chairs made of purple autumn wood. There were two entrances to the side. One was the tea room at the back and the other was the study.
After passing through the study, there was a row of crystal curtains. There was a light scent of incense inside. Through the curtains, he could faintly see a large bed with exquisite carvings. That was his eldest cousin brother's bedroom.
Li Shiyu had just rushed into the room when he heard a crisp sound from the crystal curtains. A fair and beautiful hand gently pushed the curtains aside. A beautiful person wearing a long purple robe walked out.
Li Shiyu heard the commotion and rushed over. He saw his eldest cousin brother looking at him with a smile. Li Shiyu couldn't control his emotions. He actually felt a lump in his throat. How long had he waited for this scene? His eldest cousin brother was finally able to stand in front of him healthy and not lying weakly on the bed like he was waiting for death. It made him sad and helpless.
"Brother!" All the emotions in his heart condensed into this shout.
"Shiyu, you're here." Li Mulan's eyes revealed a hint of surprise. He hurriedly walked over and held Li Shiyu's hand. He brought him to sit on a chair at the side of the study. They didn't go to the living room outside. Usually, only the people closest to them would choose to interact with them in the study.
Li Shiyu felt Li Mulan's unreserved trust in him. A happy and silly smile instantly bloomed on his face.
Li Mulan saw this and shook his head. He lightly flicked Li Shiyu's forehead and said in a pampering tone, "You're already so old but you're still so carefree. I really don't know how you survived in the division."
Li Shiyu replied proudly, "I'm lucky. I found a good leader."
Only then did Li Mulan relax and said, "That's good. Ever since I found out that you went to the division, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to adapt. A few days ago, I found out that you made a contribution again and received praise from the military headquarters. I'm very happy for you."
Li Shiyu wasn't surprised that Li Mulan found out about him so quickly. If the Li family couldn't even find out about this, it would be terrible. Although he and Li Yingjie left the Li family's division and went to the 23rd Division, Li Shiyu believed that the Li family wouldn't really let them go. They would definitely pay close attention to them. If anything happened between him and Li Yingjie, the Li family would be the first to know.
Faced with Li Mulan's concern, Li Shiyu obediently told him some of the things that happened in the military. Then, he stared at Li Mulan for a long time.
Li Mulan was a little uneasy. He subconsciously touched his face and asked in confusion, "Shiyu, is there something wrong with me?"
"Brother, let me check your body," Li Shiyu said seriously. Before he did a full check, he still couldn't be at ease with Li Shiyu's body.
Li Mulan understood Li Shiyu's worries and didn't have any objections. He nodded obediently …
After entering the bedroom, Li Mulan lay on the bed. Li Shiyu took out a portable device to check Li Mulan's body. He found that although his body's data was lower than a normal person's, it was still very different from the terrible data he had in the past.
However, due to the fact that there was a chance that the device might misdiagnose (Luo Lang's lesson), he used the ancient medicine that he hadn't fully mastered to feel Li Mulan's pulse again. He found that his eldest cousin brother's body was indeed recovering. This made Li Shiyu really feel at ease.
Seeing Li Shiyu's relaxed expression, Li Mulan smiled and said, "Do you believe me now? I'm really fine."
Li Shiyu nodded heavily, showing that he was really relieved this time.
The two of them went back to the study and chatted for a while. At that moment, the head butler placed the Moluomi on a plate and brought it up.
Li Mulan knew that Li Shiyu specially bought this so he took a piece of Moluomi and took a bite, tasting it carefully.
"How is it?" Li Shiyu asked.
Li Mulan nodded slowly. "It still tastes the same as before. I like it a lot."
Li Shiyu smiled happily.
Li Mulan looked at the excited Li Shiyu and stopped smiling. In the end, he became serious. "Shiyu, actually, there's something I've always wanted to tell you. However, in the past, I knew that you wouldn't listen to me even if I said it. However, now, I feel that I can say it. "
"What is it?" Li Shiyu asked nervously. This was the first time his eldest cousin brother had such an expression. He didn't expect such an expression on his fairy-like face to give him so much pressure.
"Don't let me affect your future. Your future isn't just for my body. You should have a bigger goal," Li Mulan said sincerely.
"Brother, I never had a big goal." Li Shiyu chuckled. "Since I was young, I wanted to live freely and do what I wanted to do. Being the family head of the Li family was never my dream. I should say that your body gave me a direction to work towards. It didn't make me waste my time when I was young. After so many years, I really fell in love with military medicine. I wanted to see those people who were declared to be incurable regain their lives. This gave me a sense of achievement."
Li Shiyu stopped smiling and said seriously to Li Mulan, "Brother, don't worry. I'm very happy in the 23rd division. Since your body has recovered, I will focus on working hard for my captain."
Li Shiyu showed a look of admiration. "My captain will definitely be a king in the future. As his team member, I can't be too inferior."
When Li Mulan heard Li Shiyu's words, he instantly smiled. The entire bedroom lit up because of his smile. Li Shiyu almost couldn't look straight at him. The feeling of his heart pounding furiously as if it was going to jump out of his chest appeared again.
"If that's the case, Shiyu, you have to work hard!" Li Mulan said sincerely.
"Yes, of course." Li Shiyu promised firmly.
"Oh right, maybe one of these few days, my regiment commander will come here to look for me. Eldest Cousin Brother, you can meet him." Li Shiyu suddenly thought of this matter and told Li Mulan. He didn't want Ling Lan to be rejected by the main butler when she came to the villa. Although Li Shiyu didn't think that the main butler would get what he wanted, if their relationship became bad … Alright, for the sake of the Li family, it was better not to offend his captain. Li Shiyu saw Ling Lan's methods and methods and was afraid of her.
"Clang." Li Mulan accidentally knocked over the plate of Moluomi. It fell to the ground and instantly broke into pieces.
Li Shiyu hurriedly squatted down and picked up the pieces of the plate. At the same time, he asked with concern, "Brother, are you hurt?"
Li Mulan forced a smile. "I'm fine. I was careless. It's a pity that this plate of Moluomi is wasted."
"It's fine. If you want to eat it, I'll buy you a new plate tomorrow." Li Shiyu lowered his head and didn't see the hint of panic in Li Mulan's eyes.
Ling Lan was coming here?
