Chapter 1090

~7 min read 1,250 words

Su Ruoli didn't expect Ye Chen to admit so generously that he was looking at her legs.

He acted so frank and natural that it suddenly made Su Ruoli's angry mood feel somewhat at a loss.

Su Ruoli, who had originally had some accusations against Ye Chen, suddenly didn't know what to do.

Moreover, the bit of anger deep in her heart also vanished with his generous admission.

So, she could only look at Ye Chen with shame, then turned her face away, and whispered with a hint of shyness: "If you've seen enough, please help me with the treatment..."

Ye Chen nodded and smiled: "Alright, let's start the treatment now."

Su Ruoli subconsciously asked: "Have you seen enough so quickly?"

After saying that, she realized that what she said didn't seem quite appropriate, and awkwardly added: "Uh, no... I didn't mean that... I mean, if you've really seen enough, then let's start..."

When she said this, she was still more or less disappointed in her heart.

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said shamelessly: "A physician has a benevolent heart. Although your legs are indeed very beautiful, I still have to hurry up and help you treat the wound."

After saying that, he held Su Ruoli's thigh with one hand, picked up a pair of pliers with the other, and said: "The crossbow bolt has barbs. I can only cut it off from the tail and then pull it apart from both sides. It might hurt a little, so you have to endure it."

Su Ruoli nodded gently: "Come on, I can endure it."

Ye Chen gave a hum, carefully cut the crossbow bolt with the pliers, then grabbed the arrowhead and said: "Like this, I'll count to three, and then I'll pull it out. Get yourself mentally prepared."

Su Ruoli hurriedly said: "Okay!"

Ye Chen nodded and said seriously: "Come, let's start. One, two..."

Just as he finished saying the word "two," Su Ruoli felt a sharp pain in her leg, which made her scream immediately: "Ouch, it hurts... Didn't you say count to three? Why did you pull it out when you counted to two?"

Ye Chen smiled slightly: "I'm the kind of person who likes to catch people off guard. If I really counted to three, what if you couldn't control yourself and suddenly pulled your leg back?"

Su Ruoli's eyes were filled with tears from the pain, and she complained: "But you can't catch me off guard like that. It hurts so much, and I wasn't prepared at all..."

Ye Chen smiled: "You're a seasoned killer, how can you not even endure this little bit of pain?"

Su Ruoli said aggrievedly: "That just now really hurt. Being injured by this kind of cold weapon is much more painful than being shot by a bullet..."

Ye Chen smiled indifferently: "Pain is just for that moment. It's fine now. I'll debride and sterilize your wound, apply some anti-infection medicine, and then bandage it up. It'll basically be done."

Su Ruoli could only nod and ask: "You're not going to use alcohol to sterilize it for me, are you? That will hurt even more..."

Ye Chen waved his hand: "Alcohol is not suitable for sterilizing wounds. I'll use some iodophor for you. Don't worry, it won't hurt as much as alcohol."

Only then did Su Ruoli breathe a sigh of relief. Then she saw Ye Chen bring over a bottle filled with iodophor, use metal tweezers to pick up a clean cotton ball, dip the cotton ball in iodophor, and apply it evenly to her wound.

Iodophor is a medicine very suitable for debriding and sterilizing wounds, and the pain is indeed much less than alcohol.

Seeing Ye Chen holding the tweezers and carefully helping her treat the wound, Su Ruoli felt a bit more favorable toward this stranger who had once made her extremely angry.

She looked at Ye Chen and asked with some curiosity: "Hey... I still don't know your name!"

Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Is it very important to you what my name is?"

Su Ruoli said with feigned anger: "I haven't settled the score with you for tricking me last time! So, of course, you are very important to me!"

Ye Chen nodded and said: "Hey... The reason I tricked you was because your act of exterminating the entire Matsumoto family at that time was indeed a bit too much. You are also Chinese, so you naturally know the style of our ancestors. Don't you understand the principle that disaster should not extend to family members?"

Su Ruoli said with some shame: "Although I did it, I was also acting under orders. The head of the family clearly requested at the time that the Matsumoto family must pay the most painful price, so I followed his wishes and led people to exterminate the Matsumoto family."

Ye Chen asked her: "Is the head of the family you mentioned Su Shoudao or Su Chengfeng?"

Su Ruoli whispered: "It's Su Shoudao..."

Ye Chen sneered, with a bit of disdain and a bit of self-mockery, and said: "That old bastard Su Shoudao is really lucky. I accidentally saved his son and daughter, Su Zhifei and Su Zhiyu, by chance before. I didn't expect to save his illegitimate daughter today. I'm fucking drunk too!"

Su Ruoli exclaimed: "What did you say? You saved Su Zhifei and Su Zhiyu?!"

Ye Chen nodded and said very unhappily: "That's right, I did save the two siblings. I didn't know at the time that they were Su Shoudao's children. If I had known, I definitely wouldn't have saved them!"

Su Ruoli couldn't help but ask: "Do you have some deep hatred with him?"

Ye Chen looked at Su Ruoli and said seriously: "I have an irreconcilable hatred with him!"

After saying that, Ye Chen added: "I said that sooner or later, I will make him kneel in front of me, crying and apologizing to me, begging for my forgiveness. And when that time comes, I might cut off his head with one strike, or I might laugh off the hatred. Whether he lives or dies depends on his own fate!"

Ye Chen still doesn't know how much his parents' death has to do with Su Shoudao.

Based on the information he currently has, Su Shoudao did indeed treat his father as an enemy everywhere back then, and even personally formed the then-famous Anti-Ye Alliance.

However, whether his parents' death has anything to do with the Anti-Ye Alliance, and how much it has to do with it, is still an unknown.

In Ye Chen's speculation, three parties must bear responsibility for his parents' death: one is the Ye family, one is the Su family, and the other is the Rothschild family in Europe.

It's just that he hasn't figured out which of these three parties bears the greatest responsibility.

Hearing this, Su Ruoli was shocked to the core and asked tentatively: "Can you tell me what kind of hatred you have with him?"

Ye Chen said indifferently: "You don't need to ask for such details."

Su Ruoli nodded with some disappointment, then asked: "Then... can you tell me your name?"

Ye Chen said indifferently: "My surname is Ye, and my name is Ye Chen."

Su Ruoli muttered to herself: "Surname Ye... named Ye Chen? Could it be... could it be..."

When Su Ruoli said this, she looked straight at Ye Chen and exclaimed: "Could it be that you are a member of the Ye family?!"
