It's Not Easy To Be A Man After Travelling To The Future
/ It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future Chapter 744
The Li family's house was situated beside a beach a few kilometres away from the Central Scout Academy . Li Shiyu came over in a hover car . He got off right in front of the main door . Then, he knocked on the door carefully .
The person who opened the door was the major-domo of the Li family . Because of his eldest cousin brother's health, he came to Planet Azure when he was five years old to meditate, trying to make use of the peacefulness of Planet Azure to stabilize his condition . This major-domo in front of him volunteered to come with his eldest cousin brother to Planet Azure . Hence, Li Shiyu respected this major-domo very much .
“Major-domo, long time no see . How have you been?” Li Shiyu gave a gentle smile as he spoke to the old man who seemed a little shocked by his visit .
The major-domo quickly regained his composure . He smiled and asked, “Second young master, what brings you here? I heard from young master that you have already entered the military, and are doing very well there . Congratulations on your success, second young master . ”
Li Shiyu replied, “Thank you, major-domo . ” He peeked past the major-domo and asked in a low voice, “How is Brother Mulan?”
In his past numerous visits, the major-domo would frown whenever he heard this question . However, this time, he gave a bright smile to Li Shiyu . Li Shiyu's eyes lit up when he saw the smile, hope started to light up inside him . Is his eldest cousin brother's health getting better?
As expected, Li Shiyu received good news from the major-domo . “Young master's body is recovering well . He should be able to fully recover after some time . ”
Li Shiyu was elated . He wondered which amazing military doctor managed to heal his eldest cousin brother's illness which had been pestering him for many years .
The major-domo answered his query . Around five years ago, Young master went to the beach to take a walk . Coincidentally, he met a domain realm master there . The domain realm master must have been in a good mood that day or he just happened to like Li Mulan, so he taught Li Mulan some physical skills training just out of the kindness of his heart . With the help of Li Shiyu's agents which he had been continuously sending all these years, Li Mulan's body slowly started improving .
When he heard that, Li Shiyu started to visibly relax his shoulders . The responsibility on his shoulders felt lighter . But, Li Shiyu was still afraid that the major-domo didn't diagnosis his eldest cousin brother accurately so he rushed into the house to diagnosis his eldest cousin brother's health personally, but only after throwing the Moluomi to the major-domo .
The Li family's house had a vintage design to it . There were olden style buildings and pavilions around the compound . Small streams and long corridors weaved through the house . It was segregated into two areas, the public area and the private area . The public area was where visitors would come if they were to come in the compound and where they attend to the visitors . As for the private area, it was where Li Mulan stayed so no outsiders were allowed to enter the private area .
However,Li Shiyu was not an outsider to Li Mulan so he could freely enter the private area . The major-domo, just like other the past numerous times, didn't stop him . He smiled as he watched Li Shiyu rushing into the house, the situation was like a puppy seeing its owner coming back home . He felt happy that these two brothers had such a great relationship .
AdvertisementThe private area was designed more exquisitely compared to the public area . As you enter the private area, you would be met with an immersive and luxurious garden . With the status and wealth of the Li family, this garden was as luxurious as the imperial garden of any imperial family in the past .
Li Shiyu was in a rush to see his cousin so he leaped his way over the garden instead of running through it, leaving some beautiful buildings behind the garden with no one admiring them . Without thinking, he rushed to the tallest three storey building .
“Big Brother!” Li Shiyu pushed the door opened and ran in .
Although the exterior design of the house was of a vintage style, the interior was a mix of modern and vintage . These two totally different designs merged together perfectly .
The room was spacious, around 400 square meters . A few antique cupboards and shelves segregated the room into different sections . When you entered the room, the first section you would encounter would be the living room . Sofa and chairs made from Catalpa wood were filled this area . There was one door on the west side of the room and another door on the east side of the room . The former led to the pantry while the latter led to the study .
After walking through the study, a clear and shining crystal curtain could be seen, the scent from a scented candle permeated throughout the room . Through the crystal curtain, you could see a silhouette of a beautifully carved bed . It was the bedroom .
The moment Li Shiyu entered the room, he heard the sound of the crystals on the curtain crashing into each other . A fair and pretty hand slowly moved the curtains to the side, revealing a beautiful man wearing a purple robe .
When Li Shiyu heard the sound, he immediately rushed over to the room . He saw his eldest cousin brother smiling at him . Suddenly, Li Shiyu couldn't control his emotions, he could feel the tears starting to build up in his eyes . He had waited for this scene for so many years . Finally, his eldest cousin brother could stand in front of him healthily . He no longer had to lie on his bed weakly, as though death was just around the corner .
“Brother!” All of his emotions congregated into a single word .
“Shiyu, you are here . ” Li Mulan looked happy . He walked over instantly and grabbed Li Shiyu's hand . He pulled him to a chair at the side and asked him to sit down . Normally, he would talk with his guest in the living room, only the people he trusted the most would be invited into the study .
Li Shiyu felt Li Mulan's trust in him and immediately let out a happy smile .
Li Mulan saw this and slowly shook his head . He flicked Li Shiyu's forehead and said in a pampering tone, “You are already this old . Why are you still like this? I really wonder how did survive in the military like that . ”
Li Shiyu replied proudly, “I was fortunate enough to meet a good leader . ”
Li Mulan relaxed . “That's good . I was afraid that you would be unable to get used to life in the military . I was elated when I knew you had received merits . ”
Li Shiyu was not surprised that Li Mulan knew what had happened to him so quickly . If the Li family didn't know any information about him, he should be worried instead . Although Li Yingjie and he had entered the 23rd Division instead of the divisions controlled by the Li family, Li Shiyu still believed that the Li family would not give up on them just like that . They would definitely watch over them . Once the two of them ever did anything noteworthy, the Li family would be the first to know .
Li Shiyu told Li Mulan about the happenings in the military . After that, he stared at Li Mulan for a long time .
Li Mulan felt awkward by the relentless stare . He touched his face instinctively and asked in a puzzled tone, “Shiyu, is there something wrong with my face?”
“Brother, let me inspect your body,” Li Shiyu said seriously . He was still unable to feel at ease unless he examined his body personally .
Li Mulan understood Li Shiyu's worries so he just nodded obediently .
They went into the bedroom . Li Mulan laid on the bed obediently . Li Shiyu took out a device and started collecting data from Li Mulan's body . The results were lower than the standard data from a healthy person but compared to the data he took in the past, there was a huge difference .
However, the device also made mistakes (like what happened to Luo Lang) . Hence, Li Shiyu used his traditional chinese medicine knowledge, which he didn't have a full grasp of, to inspect Li Mulan's body . He concluded that his eldest cousin brother's health was indeed improving . He started to relax again .
Li Mulan saw Li Shiyu's relief and smiled . “Do you believe that I'm fine now?”
Li Shiyu nodded .
The two of them returned to the study and chatted for a while more . The major-domo placed the Moluomi on a plate and served it to them .
Li Mulan knew that Li Shiyu had brought it specially for him so he took a piece and bit into it .
“How is it?” Li Shiyu asked .
Li Mulan slowly nodded . “It tastes the same . I like it . ”
Li Shiyu smiled happily .
Li Mulan looked at the elated Li Shiyu and started to turn serious . “Shiyu, actually, there is something I've always wanted to tell you . However, I knew that you would not listen to me in the past, so I didn't say it . However, now, I feel that this is the right time for me to say it . ”
“What is it?” Li Shiyu was nervous . This was the first time he saw such an expression on his eldest cousin brother's face . He didn't expect to feel so much pressure from his eldest cousin brother .
“Don't let me affect your future . Your future shouldn't be tied to the state of my body . You should have a bigger ambition,” Li Mulan said seriously .
“Brother, I don't have any grand ambition . ” Li Shiyu smiled gently . “Ever since I was young, I have always just wanted a carefree life . I just want to do what I want to do . Being the family head of the Li family was never my dream . Big Brother, your health gave me the motivation to work harder . It gave me direction when I was lost . After so many years, I started to like being a military doctor . I feel a sense of achievement whenever I see those people who were declared hopeless getting another chance to live because of me . ”
Li Shiyu retracted his smile and continued earnestly . “Big Brother, don't worry . I'm very happy in the 23rd division . Since your health is getting better, I will work hard for my leader then . ”
Li Shiyu's eyes were full of respect . “My leader will be a ruler someday . As his comrade, I must not be too lousy . ”
Li Mulan laughed when he heard what Li Shiyu said . His laughter warmed up the whole room . Li Shiyu couldn't look straight at him, as his heart started palpitating quickly .
“If that is the case, Shiyu, you have to work hard!” Li Mulan was sincere with his words of encouragement .
“Of course . ” Li Shiyu was firm with his decision .
“Oh right, my leader might come and find me in the next few days . You can have a look at him . ” Li Shiyu suddenly remembered this matter so he told Li Mulan . This was to prevent Ling Lan from being stopped by the major-domo when he came by to visit . Li Shiyu didn't think that the major-domo could stop Ling Lan, but to prevent their relationship from getting worse… fine, to protect the Li family, it's better that they didn't offend Ling Lan . Li Shiyu knew what Ling Lan was capable of .
Clang! The plate of Moluomi fell on the ground, shattering into countless pieces .
Li Shiyu immediately bent down and picked up the broken shards . He asked with concern in his voice, “Brother, are you alright?”
Li Mulan gave a forced smile . “I'm fine . I was careless just now . It's a pity that I wasted the Moluomi . ”
“It's okay . If you like it, I'll get more for you tomorrow . ” Li Shiyu was bending down, so he didn't notice the nervousness in Li Mulan's eyes .
Ling Lan is coming?
