Chapter 227 - 227 Come Here
227 Come Here
Su Qing complained and started to carefully treat Huo Qi’s wound.
Huo Qi turned around and explained with a faint smile, “Scorpion was cunning. When we were ambushed, he actually tried to escape by jumping into the river! He was still useful to me at that time, so I didn’t have time to think too much about it. I followed him into the water and wanted to catch him. However, who knew that this bastard was like a loach, and he became so slippery? I couldn’t catch him, and even lost a few brothers.”
Su Qing listened to Huo Qi quietly. She could feel the disappointment in his tone. In the past, she had never felt that he was such a loyal person. Were all gangsters so loyal these days?
It was the same for Huo Feng, who was in the rainforest just now. He had been shot twice in the leg and couldn’t even walk, but he still wanted to save Huo Qi with her!
This was a rare case of true feelings in adversity.
After washing the wounds, Su Qing simply stitched up the wounds for Huo Qi. She didn’t forget to say, “The river is filled with man-eating crocodiles. Even if Scorpion has three heads and six arms, he can forget about surviving! Not to mention, he had been handcuffed when he escaped.”
When Huo Qi heard this, he understood what Su Qing meant.
The flare just now was used to investigate the situation.

Scorpion didn’t escape as smoothly as expected. Instead, he also died in the mouth of the man-eating crocodile. This could be considered indirectly avenging his brothers. Huo Qi sighed.
He didn’t realize that unknowingly, Su Qing and him had already developed a lot of tacit understanding. They didn’t have to explain anything to each other, but they could quickly understand what the other party meant.
Su Qing didn’t say anything to comfort Huo Qi, but she directly conveyed the news of Scorpion’s death to him.
This might be another way to comfort him. Su Qing felt that since Huo Qi valued his brothers’ lives so much, he wouldn’t let the culprit, Scorpion, off so easily.
To a certain extent, Su Qing and Huo Qi were the same kind of people.
Ten minutes later, Su Qing looked at Huo Qi’s back and heaved a sigh of relief. She reminded him calmly, “Alright, put on your clothes.”
Huo Qi slowly came back to his senses, and his handsome face, which had lost all color, was still trying to force a smile. When Su Qing saw this, she took out a medicine bottle and a few candies from her backpack and threw them into Huo Qi’s hands. She said calmly, “Take two painkillers, then eat the sweet to replenish your sugar.”
Huo Qi looked at the candy and medicine bottle in his arms in a daze, as though he couldn’t react. It seemed like he hadn’t received any candy from anyone since he was six years old, not even Huo Jue.
His identity and status were extraordinary, and his personality was cold and domineering. A triad overlord who committed all kinds of evil didn’t seem to need such a warm and sweet little thing! No one expected her to overstep her bounds and give the head of the Huo family a few candies to sweeten his palate.
Su Qing might not have realized the impact her actions had on Huo Qi, but when she looked at his gradually brightening eyes and gentle expression, her emotions were a little complicated.
Why did Huo Qi look a little pitiful? It was just a few candies to replenish his body’s sugar. Was this worth such a surprise?
Huo Qi looked at Su Qing dotingly and said gently to his girl, “Come here and let me hug you.”
Su Qing looked at him and her expression suddenly changed. She even blushed slightly. She didn’t understand that this feeling was called being tempted, nor did she understand that she had been seduced by his words and expression.
“Who are you asking to hug you?” Su Qing’s fair face was flushed. She felt that she had only felt this way because she was warmed by the fire.
Huo Qi smiled and replied mischievously, “I’m asking whoever answers me.”
Su Qing glanced at the naughty old man speechlessly and pretended to be calm. “There are still a few hours before dawn. You should sleep first! You’ve been up all day. Don’t you know how to be tired?”
Huo Qing leaned his uninjured shoulder against the tree trunk. The fire illuminated his bright expression. “But my wound still hurts. I need you to hug me to recover! Qingqing? Baby? Doctor Su? Su Qing?”
Huo Qi lowered his voice and deliberately called out to Su Qing with a smile, as though there was honey hidden in his mouth.
