Chapter 895
Hearing Ye Chen's unwavering words, Ito Nanako was somewhat dumbfounded.
She dared not believe that there was still a possibility for her injuries to recover as they were, but hearing these words from Ye Chen's mouth, she suddenly felt a deep sense of trust.
Thus, she asked Ye Chen with great surprise: "Ye Chen-kun, do you really have a way to heal my injuries?"
Ye Chen nodded and said, "However, before treating you, let's deal with these corpses first."
Ito Nanako hurriedly said, "I will call the butler to come over right now!"
"No need." Ye Chen stopped her and said, "I had a bit of a conflict with your father in Tokyo. If you tell the butler about such a big matter, he will definitely notify your father immediately, and it might not look good on the surface by then."
Ito Nanako asked in surprise, "Ye Chen-kun, you saw my father in Tokyo?! How could you have a conflict?"
Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, "That is a long story. I will tell you slowly while I treat your injuries in a moment."
Ito Nanako stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "It seems Father must have suffered quite a bit at Ye Chen-kun's hands..."
Ye Chen gave a dry laugh: "He didn't suffer much, he just lost a bit of money."
Ito Nanako smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. He isn't short on money anyway, so losing a little is no big deal."
Ye Chen coughed and said, "He lost 4.5 billion US dollars."
"Ah?" Ito Nanako had actually already learned about everything that happened in Tokyo from Tanaka Koichi, but in order not to let Ye Chen have any psychological burden because of this, she feigned surprise and asked: "4.5 billion US dollars? Ye Chen-kun, you aren't joking, are you?"
Ye Chen said with a smile: "Not joking, it's true. However, I haven't decided yet whether I really want to make him lose that much."
Ito Nanako said without hesitation: "Ye Chen-kun, there is no need to consider it. Just treat this money as Father giving it to you as a token of gratitude on my behalf. After all, you just saved my life, and in his eyes, my life is definitely worth more than 4.5 billion US dollars."
Ye Chen laughed: "You are quite generous. Aren't you afraid your father will be angry with you if he finds out?"
Ito Nanako shook her head and said earnestly: "If he dares to be angry, then I will run away from home, go to China to seek refuge with Ye Chen-kun, and never come back!"
"Uh..."
Ye Chen was suddenly left speechless.
He did not know if Ito Nanako was joking or serious. If she were serious, he would naturally be willing in the depths of his heart, but he had no way to explain it to Xiao Churan...
At this moment, seeing Ye Chen's hesitant expression, Ito Nanako hurriedly smiled: "Ye Chen-kun, Nanako is just joking with you. You don't have to take it seriously. Besides, even if Nanako really wanted to go to China, I would definitely buy a house in Jin Ling to settle down on my own and wouldn't cause Ye Chen-kun any trouble!"
Ye Chen sighed and said, "Let's talk about that later. I will deal with these six corpses first. You have quite a few rooms in this courtyard; which one is not used very often?"
Ito Nanako pointed to the side room in the west and said, "That room is a storage room, but because I haven't been back to live here for a long time, it has been empty inside."
Ye Chen nodded and said, "It's cold out. I'll send you back to your room, and then I'll come back to deal with these corpses. After I'm done, I'll treat your injuries first. Once the injuries are healed, you can inform the butler and servants in the house and let them handle the corpses properly."
Ito Nanako hurriedly asked, "Ye Chen-kun, are you leaving once you heal my injuries?"
"Yes." Ye Chen nodded and said, "I still have to return to Osaka, and I will return to my country after finishing the matters in Osaka."
Ito Nanako's expression was somewhat dejected, and she murmured, "Then I hope... my injuries never heal..."
Ye Chen blurted out, "Don't talk nonsense, it's unlucky."
Ito Nanako said earnestly, "In that case, wouldn't Ye Chen-kun be able to stay forever? Because you said you would only leave after healing my injuries. If they don't heal, you can't leave."
Ye Chen looked at her with a helpless smile and said, "Rest assured, I will definitely be able to heal you."
Ito Nanako asked Ye Chen: "Ye Chen-kun, will I have a chance to see you again in the future?"
Ye Chen nodded: "Yes. I have placed some of my business in Japan now, so I might come here often in the future."
"That's wonderful!" Ito Nanako said with great joy: "Ye Chen-kun, can you promise me one thing?"
Ye Chen gave a hum: "Go ahead."
Ito Nanako hurriedly said: "I hope that every time you come to Japan, you can let me know. If it is convenient for you, I hope you will allow me to come see you!"
"Also, if I go to China, if it happens to be convenient for Ye Chen-kun, please also allow me to come see you, okay?"
Ye Chen smiled slightly: "No problem, I promise you."
Ito Nanako cheered like a little girl: "Then I will be able to see Ye Chen-kun often in the future!"
Ye Chen was touched by her sweet smile, and his voice also became gentle. He smiled and said, "Alright, I'll send you back to your room first, and I'll come over to help you treat your injuries in a while."
Immediately, under Ito Nanako's guidance, Ye Chen pushed her wheelchair and sent her back to her boudoir.
Ito Nanako's room had a classic Japanese layout; the entire room had floors made of natural wood, and it was clean, tidy, simple, and elegant.
In the room, there was a tea table for sitting on the floor, as well as a Japanese-style writing desk and a flower arrangement stand. On the walls of the room, there were many calligraphy works, which seemed to have been written by Ito Nanako herself.
Ye Chen sent her back to the room and helped her walk inside.
To prevent Ito Nanako from falling, Ye Chen held her hand with one hand and supported her waist with the other. Such intimate contact made his heart beat faster, and it also caused two blushes to rise on Ito Nanako's face.
Ye Chen supported Ito Nanako just like that, and at her request, helped her sit down on the cushion in front of the tea table.
On the tea table, there was a set of exquisite Japanese tea sets and a small incense burner.
After Ito Nanako sat down, Ye Chen said, "Wait for me a moment, I'm going to deal with the corpses outside."
Ito Nanako looked at Ye Chen shyly and said, "Ye Chen-kun, Nanako is unwell and cannot help you, so I will brew a cup of tea and wait for you to come drink it."
Ye Chen nodded, said "alright," and turned to leave the room.
At this time, the six corpses lying in the snow had already been half-buried by the heavy snow.
Ye Chen carefully moved the corpses to the storage room, and only then did he walk back to Ito Nanako's room.
When he returned, the room was already filled with the quiet and elegant scent of sandalwood incense, and Ito Nanako was carefully whisking matcha powder using a Japanese tea bowl and a bamboo whisk.
Seeing Ye Chen enter, she hurriedly said to him, "Ye Chen-kun, please sit!"
Ye Chen nodded and sat cross-legged on the cushion in front of her.
While whisking the matcha powder, Ito Nanako said to him, "Japanese tea ceremony might be a bit different from Chinese tea ceremony. The tea here is brewed with matcha powder. I don't know if Ye Chen-kun is used to drinking it."
Ye Chen smiled: "I tasted Japanese tea ceremony with my parents when I was young, and personally, I think it's quite good."
Ito Nanako nodded and said with a smile, "That's good!"
As she spoke, just as Ito Nanako was about to brew tea for Ye Chen, Ye Chen's brows suddenly furrowed tightly, and he lowered his voice to say to her: "Someone else has climbed over the wall and come in!"
"Ah?!" Ito Nanako widened her eyes in surprise: "Are they with the people from before?"
Ye Chen shook his head: "I don't know yet, but there is only one person. They might not be here to harm you. Don't talk nonsense in a moment; let's play along and see what happens."
