Chapter 15: Stop Where It Should Stop

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Liu Qing’s bone fracture was not very serious, but the traditional belief was that it would take 100 days for injured bones and muscles to heal. His leg was in a cast, so it could not be considered to be a minor injury as well.

The cast could only be removed after one month.

During this period, Xiao Wen came by to take care of Liu Qing every day.

Liu Qing was not in any hurry. He still got his salary even when lying in bed. That was quite the ideal lifestyle.

The weather was hot by now. No matter how lax the property management company was with the company rules, it was still very tedious to have to work outdoors in uniform in that heat.

He felt that when his leg had fully healed, it would be time to tender his resignation.

Time passed quickly. Soon, it was the first day of the following month, when the night shift rotated with the day shift.

Xiao Wen got off work at 7:00 a.m. to take an eight-hour break. She had to head back to take over the shift at 3:00 p.m.

Then she would work until 11:00 p.m.

The next day, she would take over at 7:00 a.m. and work until 7:00 p.m., completing the shift rotation process.

On the first day of the month, after getting off work at 11:00 p.m., Xiao Wen brought a change of clothes and her toiletries with her.

Previously, she would go to the dormitory after work to take a shower and change her clothes before coming over to take care of Liu Qing.

Now that she was working the day shift, she wanted to go out and have fun after work. She was too lazy to go back to the dormitory to take a shower, so she brought all her things with her.

When she got off work, Liu Qing was still awake and watching short videos on his phone.

Xiao Wen took her pajamas with her into the bathroom and spoke to Liu Qing.

“I’m going to shower. Don’t peep.”

Liu Qing did not even look up and replied to her disdainfully.

“Forget it. Look at you, you have no chest and no butt. Why should I look at you?”

Xiao Wen snorted. “I seem to recall that someone put a paw on my chest while I was asleep.”

Liu Qing retorted, “When I was asleep, your claws were never obedient either.”

No one could control their unconscious behavior after they fell asleep.

But that was all there was.

When they woke up, they had not done anything overboard.

He could not say that he had no such thoughts at all, but the moment he thought about the trouble it could cause later, he would dispel all those indecent thoughts.

As he listened to the sound of water splashing in the bathroom, Liu Qing’s heart wavered.

Shaking his head, he dismissed that thought.

That day was the first time the two of them shared a bed at night.

After switching the lights off and before they fell asleep, under the cover of the night, both of them more or less had the same thought.

They were both normal healthy people. It would be abnormal not to have any thoughts about each other under such circumstances.

Xiao Wen suddenly asked Liu Qing, “Hey, how’s your leg?”

Liu Qing’s leg was still in a cast, but he could walk slowly now. However, he had to be very careful andhe could not put too much pressure on it. He still needed crutches for support.

His recovery process had been good.

However, when he heard Xiao Wen’s question, Liu Qing became very nervous and said quickly, “Not good, I’m not recovering well. I can’t do anything too strenuous.”

Xiao Wen replied, “Oh.” Then she fell silent.

When experts traded blows, they stopped where it should stop.

They were both adults and needed to uphold their morals.

At 6:20 a.m. the next day, Xiao Wen’s alarm went off.

She got up and was about to go to work when Liu Qing complained to her.

“Why don’t you go back to your dormitory room and sleep tonight, as your alarm clock is disturbing my sleep.”

Xiao Wen spat a reply at him. “You’re so heartless. I take care of your meals every day. Why can’t I share the air-conditioned room for a few days? You still have an entire day to sleep!”

Liu Qing yelled back “I’m injured now. I need a pleasant environment to rest.”

Xiao Wen laughed. “You still know that you’re injured? If you’re still injured, just lie there obediently and don’t talk nonsense with me. Otherwise, if I’m not careful, I may break your broken leg again.”

After washing up, she changed her clothes and went out.

After a few minutes, she returned with breakfast for Liu Qing.

“One steamed vermicelli roll, one egg and a glass of breakfast milkshake. That’ll be eight dollars, thank you.”

After putting it down, she rushed off to work.

Later in the afternoon and at night, she brought lunch and dinner from the canteen and ate together with Liu Qing.

As she was responsible for taking care of Liu Qing, she had received permission from the company to deliver food to him. During the period when she delivered the food, the team leader took over her shift. This way, it would not affect Liu Qing’s daily routine even when she was on the day shift.

Liu Qing had already started doing rehabilitation exercises and he would walk around the house with a walking stick.

His leg injury was slowly healing.

With regard to the civil compensation, after a few days of negotiations, he had reached an agreement with the family of the guy who hit him. They had transferred 20,000 dollars to him to cover the medical expenses, compensation for loss of work, nutrition expenses, caregiver fees and all other expenses.

On his end, Liu Qing had to promise that even if there were aftereffects from the injury in the future, he would not hold the other party responsible.

The other party had not wanted to transfer so much money at first. They felt that a minor injury should not cost them so much money.

However, the negotiator sent by the property management company had hinted to them that if they did not settle the matter privately, they would have to pay more if the case went to the courts.

Liu Qing needed time to rest, but the amount of time needed was not fixed. He might only need one month, or he might need half a year.

Just the compensation for loss of work could exceed the amount of 20,000 dollars.

During this period, Liu Qing also needed an aide.

Although the company paid Xiao Wen 50 dollars a day for taking care of Liu Qing, they quoted 200 dollars a day when negotiating with the other party’s family.

There were also treatment fees and nutrition fees.

The costs would be even higher should there be any aftereffects from the injury.

If there was a lawsuit, making the other party pay more than 100,000 dollars in compensation was considered a small amount.

The sooner the money was paid, the sooner the patient could recover. It was best for everyone involved.

In any case, the property management company would fully support their employee in the lawsuit.

With such a threat, the other party’s family panicked. They simply paid out 20,000 dollars to the company to settle the issue.

Of course, the option of detention was still maintained.

This was because Liu Qing had made it very clear that he would not settle privately for any amount of money. He wanted the person to be jailed.

That sum of money was transferred to the company because the company was currently paying for the medical fees as well as Xiao Wen’s caregiver fees.

The company had even continued paying Liu Qing’s salary during his recuperation.

After Liu Qing was discharged from the hospital, the company would settle the bill with him and transfer the remaining money to him.

Liu Qing had no objections to such an arrangement.

At this stage, what he was most concerned about was not how much compensation he could get, nor when his leg would completely recover. Instead, it was about when Su Yi of Tianyuan Group would die.

He was most worried that his rebirth had affected the world and that Su Yi, who should have been in a car accident, did not end up in one.

If he could not become a rich second generation, he would have to repeat the tragedy that was his previous life.

As the month of July started, he scrolled through the news about Tianyuan Group every day.

On July 10, Wednesday, just after 2:00 p.m., while searching the Internet for news on Tianyuan Group, he suddenly saw a headline.

“The chairman of Tianyuan Group, Su Yi, had died in a car accident.”

All at once, he felt invigorated.
