Quick Wear: Host, are you playing here?

Hua Xia blinked her eyes, her eyes twinkled, and asked, "Brother, can we not go?"

Du Lin was silent. He could agree to many things she asked, but he still felt helpless facing this sudden request.

After a long while, he said, "This matter concerns the development of the Gufan Gang, so can I accompany you when I come back?"

Hua Xia blinked and said, "Stay."

Du Lin said: "I asked A Long to stay to protect you. If you want any gift, you can tell me and I will bring it back."

Hua Xia suddenly smiled: "Okay then."

250 said in a panic: [Host, please tell the villain the reason. Country E is a trap, and the transaction is also a trap. They are all traps set by the male protagonist of this world! ]

In the original world, Du Lin was ambushed and shot several times after going to Country E. He was seriously injured and was finally rescued, but he became paralyzed and spent the rest of his life lying in bed, living a life worse than death.

No matter how anxious 250 was or how he shouted, Hua Xia remained unmoved and ate the food in her bowl. While eating, she suddenly raised her head and glanced at Uncle Li who was waiting beside her.

Uncle Li looked at him inquiringly, "Miss Fei, would you like to drink something?"

Hua Xia shook her head, her face suddenly wrinkled, the corners of her mouth drooped, and she looked like she was about to cry: "Uncle Li!"

Uncle Li: "???"

Hua Xia dropped her chopsticks, walked over to Uncle Li, and asked in a tearful voice, "Uncle Li! Why have you lost so much weight? Did you not eat well? How did you lose so much weight? It's so sudden!"

"Uncle Li! Is it because the food in the kitchen is not to your liking? Or is it because Du Lin is exploiting you and making you do a lot of work and go to bed late every day?"

"Look, you have dark circles under your eyes and a lot more white hair!"

"Would you like some water? Uncle Li, I'll go get you some. Your lips are all dry and cracked."

Uncle Li took a half step back, somewhat at a loss, and waved his hands frantically, saying, "No, no, no."

Hua Xia ran to pour a cup of boiling water, and handed it to Uncle Li forcefully: "Uncle Li, you haven't rested well, why are you sweating on your forehead? Drink the water quickly, while it's hot."

250: [Host, what are you doing? You don't care about the villain's life or death, but you care about a butler. The mission is about to fail...]

Seeing the housekeeper holding the cup of hot water was frightened by Hua Xia and kept backing away, Du Lin was about to stop him, but when he glanced over, he saw beads of sweat on Uncle Li's forehead, dark circles under his eyes, and he looked thinner and older.

"Okay, stop messing with Uncle Li." Du Lin grabbed Hua Xia's wrist and brought her back. "I'll tell them to make a nourishing soup for Uncle Li."

Uncle Li saw that Hua Xia had finally calmed down, wiped the sweat off his head, and bowed slightly: "Master Du, I'll do it myself. Uncle Li does have some cooking skills, and the chicken soup he made must have been a favorite when you were a child."

Du Lin lowered his eyes and hummed lightly.

Uncle Li put the water cup on the table: "Thank you for your concern, Miss Fei."

Hua Xia smiled brightly: "It's all thanks to Uncle Li who took care of me during this period."

Du Lin had something else to do in the afternoon, so after lunch he told Hua Xia not to cause trouble and left. The housekeeper was nowhere to be found in the villa, probably because he was weak and went back to his room to rest.

Hua Xia went out in the afternoon, and A Long followed her fearfully, fearing that something bad would happen to him again.

But he was obviously overthinking it.

It was a messy place with a wet cement floor and a mixed smell of various livestock in the air. This was a vegetable market.

Hua Xia lifted her skirt, looked around, and walked to her stall under the enthusiastic shouting of an old lady.

"A hen. A fine old hen."

Seeing Hua Xia stop, the aunt picked up the hen's claws and threw them onto the stage: "A five-year-old hen, it makes delicious soup. Buy it and kill it right away, how about it?"

Hua Xia nodded, and the old lady immediately smiled and threw the hen onto the scale: "Two hundred and fifty."

The boss showed Hua Xia the scale. Hua Xia looked back at A Long, who immediately paid three hundred yuan out of his own pocket and gave her fifty in change.

Hua Xia walked out, and the strong man followed carrying the hen.

[Host, why did you buy the hen? ] Walking out of the market, 250 asked.

Hua Xia smiled and answered irrelevantly: "You are worth the same as this old hen."

After that, she added meaningfully: "The chickens are fat, it's time to kill them."

He understood the first half of the sentence, but not the second half. 250 stopped talking and became more and more angry as he spoke.

Hua Xia staggered back to the villa, and A Long carried the chicken to the kitchen. The 1.9-meter-tall man was forced to squat on the ground to bathe the chicken. Seeing this, the kitchen auntie hurried over to help.

During dinner, Du Lin called and said that he might not be able to come back tonight, so he asked Hua Xia to eat by herself first.

There was some fatigue in the man's voice, perhaps because he was too busy. Hua Xia said okay.

The housekeeper came back from somewhere. After having dinner with Hua Xia, he took his leave to rest.

250 is still urging Hua Xia to stop the villain in the next two days and tell him not to go to Country E.

Hua Xia ignored him and went to the kitchen to look at the old hen that had been cooking in the casserole for two hours. After a long while, she said, "Didn't I tell him that? He has to listen to me, too."

250 continued to persuade: [Host, you can analyze the reasons for him. ]

The kitchen auntie kept smiling at her. Hua Xia touched the tip of her nose and asked, "Auntie, what are you laughing at?"

"Aaron said that the young lady went to the vegetable market in the afternoon and picked out an old hen specifically to stew for Grandpa Du, right?" Auntie's face was full of relief.

Hua Xia shook her head: "No, I stewed it for Uncle Li. Uncle Li has lost a lot of weight recently."

Auntie's smile froze: "Really? Really? That's good."

Two hours later, the kitchen was filled with the aroma of chicken soup, and even Aaron, who was guarding the door, couldn't help but stick his head in to take a look.

Hua Xia poured the chicken soup into a soup bowl and brought it upstairs.

At the same time, Du Lin, who was in a meeting, received a video call from Hua Xia. This was her first call, which made Du Lin's heart beat faster.

He raised his hand and made a gesture, and the person who was talking immediately stopped talking. Du Lin then picked up the phone.

The light on the screen was a little dim, and the camera angle seemed to be shooting from above, revealing the jawline of the girl's palm-sized face.

"What's wrong?" Du Lin asked.

Hua Xia said, "Brother, Uncle Li is feeling a little uncomfortable today, so I stewed an old hen for him to replenish his nutrition, to thank him for taking care of me in the villa these days."

Du Lin nodded jealously. When she saw the text message from A Long saying that she was going to buy chicken in the afternoon, she thought it was made for him.

Hua Xia put on the Bluetooth headset and whispered, "I'll give Uncle Li a surprise later. You watch quietly. Hahaha, Uncle Li will definitely be surprised!"

The next second, she changed the subject: "But, I knocked for a long time and Uncle Li didn't open the door. Could he be sick?"

Du Lin frowned slightly.

250 just wanted to say that the host didn't knock on the door at all. The next second, Hua Xia took out a key and inserted it into the keyhole in front of him from the back where the camera couldn't see it.

[Host? Where did you get the key? ]

Hua Xia said to the phone: "Brother, let me open the door and go in to take a look, in case Uncle Li fainted inside..."

As she spoke, the key slowly turned.
