Chapter 68: Vacation End

"Master, you always act so recklessly..." Rita carefully wiped the wound on Li Yexing's foot by the bedside.

"Indeed... We should not have let that woman live and let her stay on the ship." Lilith, sitting next to them, spoke expressionlessly, her words sounding very dangerous.

"Ahh... It hurts, Rita, be gentle..." Li Yexing lay on the bed, his head resting on Lilith's white stockings thigh, and his feet on Rita's black stockings thigh.

He looked helpless.

After chasing Avery for several miles barefoot and firing five shots, Li Yexing was finally carried back by the tardy Lilith and Rita. At the time, he did not feel much pain, but once he stopped, he felt as though his foot was not attached to his leg, and the pain was unbearable.

As Rita was wiping the wound, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in..." Li Yexing said listlessly.

The door was immediately pushed open, and Helen anxiously asked, "Mr. Li, are you okay?"
Then she saw the scene before her, with Li Yexing taking advantage of the two women.

The butler, Avery, who was following behind, gently patted Helen's shoulder and said in a cold voice, "I told you, Mr. Li needs to rest, and you need to rest too."

Helen felt as if she were a little flower wilted by the sun, and left with a heavy heart.
After Helen left, Avery looked at Li Yexing, and his eyes twitched when he saw Li Yexing's feet on Rita's thigh.

"Why are you here? Are you looking for trouble?" Li Yexing asked.

"The money has been sent to you..." Avery looked at Li Yexing's face full of displeasure and suppressed his anger, saying, "Although I don't like you very much, ignoring the guest's injuries is not how the Lorena Family treats their guests. Besides, you did save Miss Helen twice, so I represent the Lorena Family and express our sincere gratitude to Mr. Li."

With a dissatisfied expression, the butler bowed deeply to Li Yexing, and upon standing up, he gently handed a canister that looked like a child's toy to Rita, who was wiping the wound on Li Yexing's body.

"That's...emergency spray?!" Li Yexing exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the small canister in Rita's hand.

"Yes, it's an emergency spray," Avery replied.

The emergency spray was quite powerful stuff.

In the original "Resident Evil" game, no matter how low your health bar was, spraying it would instantly heal you to full health. Its healing effects were simply miraculous.

Li Yexing had even tried to buy some of it since he came here, but one can cost five thousand dollars, and... to be honest, its effects were not as good as in the game. It could only help stop bleeding and speed up the healing process. There were many cheaper alternatives. However, since this stuff was so expensive, there must be a reason for it.

As Rita sprayed the green mist on Li Yexing's foot, he immediately felt the pain lessen.

"With this, your wounds will heal in less than three days..." Avery said to Li Yexing. "Once your wounds are healed, get out of here as soon as possible."

"Aren't you a noble's butler?" Li Yexing couldn't help but ask. "Why are you talking to me without using honorifics?"

"I speak to people according to their status and character. It's my code of conduct," Avery replied.

"Forget it, I understand. We just don't see eye to eye," Li Yexing said, waving his hand. "What about Little Yellow Flower? She doesn't seem to be hurt."

"Little Miss is fine. You don't have to worry about her," Avery said, seemingly trying to cover up his slip of the tongue. "Is there anything else you need? Although I'm reluctant, I'll try to fulfill it for you."

"Oh, right..." Li Yexing suddenly remembered something. "Do you have any idea who those attackers were last night? Honestly, they smelled like they were from the same group, but... they were terrible at fighting. They were even worse than third-rate fighters like me."

Did the infamous Roples Mad Dog really consider himself a third-rate fighter?
Avery couldn't help but find it funny.

"Although I didn't leave any of them alive, I have a pretty good idea of who was behind it..." Avery said, with a hint of killing intent in his eyes.

"It's ridiculous, really. After the master died, all kinds of scum came crawling out of their nest. They're even resorting to such cheap tricks." After speaking, Avery turned his head to look at Li Yexing and said, "This is the Lorena Family's matter. We can handle it ourselves."

"Is that so? Then that's settled," Li Yexing said, rubbing Lilith's thigh.

Just as Avery was about to leave, Li Yexing shouted to Avery, "Oh, one more thing, stop trying to hit on my maid!"

Hearing Li Yexing's words, Avery, who was about to leave, suddenly turned his head and gave Li Yexing an uncomfortable look. Just as Li Yexing was about to lose his temper...

"Heh." The butler grinned at him and gave him a stiff, artificial smile before leaving without looking back.

"Hey! What did you mean by that?!" Li Yexing stood up like a macho man, but Lilith reached out and pressed his head back down onto her lap.

"Yexing is injured, be calm," Lilith said.

"Miss is right, Master always acts recklessly and doesn't take care of yourself. Until you are fully healed, you shouldn't go anywhere. Miss and I will help you solve all of your problems," Rita chimed in.

"Fine…" Li Yexing sighed and rubbed his head against Lilith's white stockings thigh. "If this had been before, I would have fought even if I got shot. I'd do whatever it took. But now, with a family to support, even a little blister on my foot becomes a big problem... Is this the headache that comes with dragging a family around?"

Looking up at the ceiling, Li Yexing had a happy look on his face, as if he was trying to show off.

===

Two days later, Li Yexing's foot injury had mostly healed, and he set off on his journey home with the two girls. Before leaving, Avery transferred nine million dollars to him as payment for saving Helen twice.

"Don't think it's too little. The Lorena Family is in turmoil right now, and every penny has to be spent wisely," Avery told him.

In truth, Li Yexing wasn't complaining about the amount. His usual job paid only a few hundred thousand dollars, and the most he would get from a dangerous commission would be a few million. His recent income had increased by several times compared to previous years.

Could it be because his employer's family was wealthy?

Little Yellow Flower Helen was very sad to see Li Yexing leave, and tears streamed down her face as she said a lot of things that almost implied that she was willing to pay him to stay.

Avery, who was standing behind her, looked extremely unhappy, and his gaze at Li Yexing seemed to say, "If you nod your head, I'll twist your head off."

Alas, although Little Yellow Flower Helen was cute and naive, and had money to spare, Li Yexing was really not interested in her. And so, after experiencing a tumultuous vacation, he and his girls finally returned to their own little nest.
