With the help of Sei Itō's elixir, Mai Shiranui's condition was much better than the doctor had expected. Therefore, after lying in the hospital for more than an hour, Mai Shiranui went through the discharge procedures and returned to Mai Shiranui's dojo with King and Sei Itō, who were worried about her.
"Sister King, I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me." Kneeling on the tatami, Mai Shiranui, who looked a little haggard, forced a smile.
"Wu …" King called softly.
But before she could speak, Sei Itō quickly winked at King and interrupted, "You've seen King's condition. She's injured and can't fly for a while. So, it should be okay for her to stay with you to recuperate, right?"
Mai Shiranui looked at King and nodded. "Of course."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Wu." King, who understood Sei Itō's arrangement, said politely.
"Sister King, do we need to be so polite?" Mai Shiranui said helplessly.
"I'm too polite," King said embarrassedly.
Then the three of them stayed together for a while. Sei Itō said goodbye to King and Mai Shiranui. They saw him off and left the dojo, driving back to the villa he had bought.
Dozens of minutes later, Sei Itō returned to the villa.
He locked the car, pushed the door open, and walked into the room. He went straight to the bedroom.
In an instant, a body was tied up with a lot of bandages. The body, which looked like an ancient Egyptian pharaoh's mummy, appeared in front of Sei Itō's eyes. At this time, the body was staring straight at Sei Itō, who pushed the door open and walked into the room with a pair of clear black and white eyes.
"You're awake." Seeing the person's gaze, Sei Itō smiled.
"Are you the one who saved me?" A slightly hoarse but clear female voice came from the human body.
"Yes." Sei Itō walked to the side of the bed and sat down. Then, he reached out and grabbed her arm, placing three fingers on her wrist. He nodded and admitted.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome." Sei Itō smiled.
Then, the two of them fell silent.
"You're recovering well. The aura in your body has calmed down. Although there are still some external evil fires, with your cultivation, you should be able to get rid of them all in a few days." A minute later, Ito Sei finished feeling the pulse and said.
"You're also a Grandmaster of Combat?"
"You could say that." Sei Itō removed a portion of the bandages wrapped around the man's body. He looked at the charred skin below and casually replied.
At this time, although the figure did not speak, his eyes were fixed on Sei Itō's face. Clearly, he was concerned about his own condition. She paid a lot of attention.
"You've finally stabilized." Sei Itō sighed softly. Then, he turned to look into the figure's eyes and smiled, "Don't worry. As long as there are no accidents, it'll take at most a month. I'll be able to heal the burns on your body and restore your skin to its original condition. I guarantee that you'll be as beautiful as before. "
Although it was impossible to see her expression because of the bandages on her face, one could still clearly feel the shyness and joy in her heart from her evasive gaze.
This was normal because as long as she was a woman, she would be very concerned about her own body. Even if she was like Sister Feng …
"Right, my clothes …" At this time, the figure's expression froze. She quickly turned to look at Sei Itō and asked softly.
"I helped you take them off. Don't worry, my hands and feet are very clean. I didn't touch anything that I shouldn't have. "Sei Itō said without hiding anything.
Instantly, the figure's eyes became slightly flustered.
"Um, can I use your house phone?" The figure's eyes wandered and asked.
"Of course. Wait a moment. "
Sei Itō stood up, walked to the side, and brought the landline phone to the figure's side.
"Tell me the number, and I'll call it for you." Sei Itō sat back down on the chair and picked up the phone.
"0 …" The figure hesitated for a moment, but considering his current state, he could only compromise and say a set of numbers.
Following the figure's description, Sei Itō quickly dialed the number and placed the phone with a beeping sound next to the figure's ear.
Then, in the next moment, the call was connected with a soft click.
"Hello?" A man's voice came from the phone.
"Is this Gu Lie? I'm Chun Li, "the figure said softly.
That's right! The person who was tied up like a mummy was none other than Chun Li, the fighter who had been severely burned by Iori Yagami's purple flame and suffered severe internal injuries. Itsunari had secretly taken her away from the gymnasium with his teleportation ability!
"Chun Li?! Where are you? Are you okay? "Gu Lie asked in pleasant surprise.
"I'm at a …" Chun Li glanced at Ito Sei and continued, "I'm at a friend's house. I'm injured and may need to recuperate for a while, so I'd like to trouble you to ask Miss Maddy for a leave of absence for me.
As part of Interpol's precautionary measures, Chun Li didn't directly reveal Miss McGrady's position. Even the phone number she called this time was only the phone number of the hotel where Gu Lie and the others were staying, not Gu Lie's private phone number. All of this was to prevent their identities and other information from being leaked. After all, she had just met Sei Itō, and she didn't know what kind of person he was. It would be bad if he had ulterior motives.
She chose to stay here instead of asking Gu Lie to pick her up because she was tempted by Sei Itō's ability to heal her skin in one month. Even Sister Phoenix knew how to become 'beautiful' through plastic surgery, let alone Chun Li, who had the ability to do so. Moreover, she believed that with her vigilance, she wouldn't be easily fooled by Sei Itō!
"Are you injured? Is it serious? "
"It's okay," Chun Li replied.
"Okay, I'll help you ask Miss Mai Di for leave," Gu Lie promised. "By the way, how long do you need?"
"Hmm … a month," Chun Li said after thinking for a while.
"It seems like your situation isn't as simple as you said." Gu Lie's words were full of concern.
"It's nothing. My friend is a doctor, and he'll take good care of me," Chun Li glanced at Sei Itō again and replied.
"I see. Okay, I'll tell Miss Mai Di later."
"Sorry to trouble you."
"You're welcome."
The two exchanged a few more words before hanging up the phone.
"Thank you," Chun Li thanked Sei Itō, who put the phone aside.
"It's nothing. You must be thirsty. I'll get you some water. " When Sei Itō saw Chun Li licking her lips, he immediately understood Chun Li's needs.
Chun Li didn't say anything. She moved her head slightly, and her eyes followed Sei Itō's movements.
Two minutes later, Sei Itō returned to the room with a glass and a plastic straw. He sat beside Chun Li's bed, leaned forward, and brought the glass and straw to Chun Li's mouth.
"Thank you," Chun Li said politely. She opened her mouth and bit the straw, gently sucking the warm water in the glass.
Soon, half of the water was drunk by Chun Li.
"It's done," Chun Li said after releasing the straw.
Sei Itō nodded and put the glass aside.
"By the way, I still don't know your name," Chun Li turned her eyes and asked Sei Itō.
"I'm Sei Itō," Sei Itō said with a smile.
"I'm Chun Li. Nice to meet you."
"I know you. You're that amazing martial artist. To be honest, when I saw you on TV, I was amazed by you. "Ito Sei said with an expression that he had already known it.
With the initial consensus, Chun Li and Sei Itō chatted casually until dinner time. Needless to say, dinner was naturally a Chinese feast made by Sei Itō, who was able-bodied.
"I didn't expect that other than being proficient in Chinese medicine, you're also proficient in cooking." Chun Li sat up on the bed with the help of Sei Itō. She leaned her upper body against the headboard and looked at the exquisite Chinese food on the table. Her eyes were full of amazement.
"It's probably because I'm Chinese." Sei Itō turned around and picked up a bowl full of white rice and a pair of chopsticks. He picked up some vegetables from the plates and put them into the bowl. He turned around and handed them to Chun Li. He carefully fed her the food and chuckled.
"Sorry to trouble you," Chun Li said politely with hesitation in her eyes. She opened her mouth and swallowed the food that was sent to her mouth.
"I see." After swallowing the food in her mouth, Chun Li suddenly understood.
"For this, I also have a Chinese name, Chen Xicheng. If you're not used to calling me by my Japanese name, you can call me by my Chinese name," Sei Itō, who picked up some food again and sent it to Chun Li's mouth, deliberately said in fluent Chinese.
Hearing the familiar Chinese, Chun Li's eyes lit up and she agreed with a smile.
"Okay, Xicheng."
Naturally, this was also said in Chinese.
Then, surrounded by an old friend in a foreign land, Chun Li comfortably enjoyed the pure Chinese food with color, fragrance, and taste. She couldn't help but show a satisfied expression on her face.
After feeding Chun Li, Sei Itō began to eat by himself.
About 20 minutes later, Sei Itō finished his dinner. He got up and cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks on the table. Then, he cooked Chinese medicine for Chun Li in the kitchen.
Soon, the pungent smell of Chinese medicine filled the room.
After a long while, Sei Itō returned to the bedroom with a thick black Chinese medicine decoction. He fed it to Chun Li, who didn't suspect anything and was very obedient.
Just when Sei Itō was about to say something to Chun Li, a melodious ringtone suddenly rang …
