Maybe in her heart, besides Ling Lan, she trusted Li Shiyu the most. Hence, she came to find Li Shiyu instinctively.
Li Shiyu was practicing the physical skills of the Li family to strengthen his body. When he saw Luo Chao walking in as if her soul left her body, he stopped what he was doing and checked up on her.
“Luo Chao, what happened?” Li Shiyu asked in concern. It was uncommon to see Luo Chao like this. As a military doctor, he needed to care for her.
“Brother Shiyu, I need to calm down first,” Luo Chao said blankly.
“Sure. Come here and have a seat first.” Li Shiyu brought Luo Chao into the living room and let her rest on the sofa. Then, he went to the back and poured a cup of calming tea for her. This tea was able to soothe a person"s emotions. It was used to treat people like the current Luo Chao.
He pa.s.sed the teacup to Luo Chao, but Luo Chao didn"t even look at it. She just raised her head directly and gulped everything down.
Soon, the tea took effect. Luo Chao"s mind became clearer and her eyes weren"t as dull as before. They started becoming brighter and clearer.
“Tell me, what happened?” Li Shiyu sat opposite Luo Chao and asked sternly.
It was obvious that Luo Chao received too large of a stimulus just now. She might have even lost her soul. This was very dangerous. Luckily, Luo Chao subconsciously knew that she had to find him. If she had gone anywhere else and missed the best time for treatment, the consequences were unimaginable (Brother Shiyu, you"re thinking too much. Sister Luo Chao is just dumbstruck. Even if you don"t treat her, she will calm down after some time naturally. The situation you worry about will not happen. You must have made the wrong diagnosis because you were too worried).
Luo Chao clasped her hands together as she squirmed in her seat. Then, she raised her head and looked at Li Shiyu carefully. She was struggling to decide if she should tell him what she saw.
“Is it about the hormone suppressors?” Li Shiyu noticed the hesitation and dilemma on her face. He couldn"t help but think whether it was because he had refused to give her the hormone suppressor so she met some problems that she was too embarra.s.sed to speak about.
After all, in Li Shiyu"s mind, that was the only thing that Luo Chao would have a hard time speaking about.
“Erm, it is and it isn"t…” Luo Chao thought of something when she heard Li Shiyu"s reply. She didn"t deny it. Luo Chao knew how important the hormone suppressor was to Boss so if Li Shiyu was willing to do something about it, she would definitely grab this opportunity.
“Besides this, what"s the other problem?” Li Shiyu detected that Luo Chao had something else to say.
“Yesterday night, Regiment Commander Li stayed at Boss"s place.” Luo Chao thought for a moment and still decided to tell Li Shiyu about this.
If this was true, she wouldn"t be able to hide it from anyone. Luo Chao"s relationship with Li Shiyu was always very good so she wanted to give him a reminder in case he lost his composure like her because of his astonishment.
“Oh,” Li Shiyu answered calmly. He didn"t find it shocking.
“Oh?” Luo Chao got agitated when Li Shiyu appeared so calm. She wanted to shake Li Shiyu awake. “Brother Shiyu, why are you so calm? Boss is sleeping with Regiment Commander Li on the same bed. On the same bed!”
“So what?” Li Shiyu replied calmly.
He even saw his elder brother lying in Boss"s arms. What was so surprising about them sleeping together? Also, there was nothing wrong with two men sleeping together, right? Although Boss rarely slept with other people, it was just rare. His elder brother was an exception.
“Boss is…” Luo Chao almost revealed the truth. Fortunately, she realised her mistake in time and changed her sentence, “Boss never slept with anyone. Isn"t it weird that Regiment Commander Li is sleeping with Boss now?”
“Not really. I saw them sleeping together before.” Li Shiyu decided to explain himself when he saw how agitated Luo Chao was.
“What? Luo Chao was flabbergasted. “When was that?”
Li Shiyu recalled, “Should be three years ago…”
It had already been so long! Luo Chao didn"t expect that Li Lanfeng and Ling Lan"s secret relationship had started three years ago. She only knew about it now! Did Boss hide her relationship too well or were they too careless?
Li Shiyu frowned when he saw Luo Chao"s look of disbelief. He asked, “Why are you so shocked? They"re just sleeping together, right? Isn"t that very normal?”
Luo Chao forcefully suppressed her astonishment, Li Shiyu"s words made her remember that everyone thought Boss was a man. Hence, they felt that it was alright for two men to sleep together. However, she knew that Boss was a woman. If a woman slept with a man on the same bed, and she did it more than once, it was definitely abnormal.
“Have you realised that Regiment Commander Li has a different feeling towards Boss?” Luo Chao thought that this must have happened because Li Lanfeng shamelessly decided to act. If not, based on Boss"s calm and indifferent personality, she would never do something like this.
“Different feeling?” Li Shiyu was confused at the start but the next second, she understood what Luo Chao was saying. He exclaimed, “How is that possible?”
How could his immortal-like cousin brother have evil intentions towards Boss? Li Shiyu couldn"t accept what Luo Chao was saying.
“Why not? They"re sleeping together,” Luo Chao said firmly.
She understood Boss"s character. If they didn"t have such a relationship, she would never allow Li Lanfeng to climb on her bed.
“Wait, I need to calm down.” Li Shiyu signaled Luo Chao to stop talking to let him calm his emotions first.
“Okay.” Li Shiyu"s haggard performance was just like how she reacted when she found out about the truth. Luo Chao knew what he was going through so she sat at the side and waited for Li Shiyu to recover.
Li Shiyu turned around and went to the shelf behind him to make himself a cup of calming tea. He gulped it furiously. He felt that he wasn"t able to calm down with his own ability due to the severity of what Luo Chao was saying. He needed the help of external medication.
Still, it took him some effort to calm down. Li Shiyu went back to the living room and sat opposite of Luo Chao. He said seriously, “Okay, now, you can tell me everything you know.”
Luo Chao didn"t hide anything.
“You think that Regiment Commander Li has that kind of feeling towards Boss?” Li Shiyu still couldn"t accept this.
Luo Chao nodded resolutely. “I"m very sure. Also, Boss admitted it.”
“Boss, admitted it?” Li Shiyu felt as though he was struck by lightning again. This sentence was even more impactful than everything Luo Chao had said so far. It was enough to kill someone in a split second.
“Yes. But Regiment Commander Li was the one who took the initiative.” Luo Chao directly pushed the blame to Li Lanfeng.
“My… brother… initiative…” Li Shiyu"s voice was so soft Luo Chao almost couldn"t hear him. He didn"t expect the cousin he respected so much to become someone that might be denounced by others.
