CH 14
“You flatter me, you flatter me.” The Eldest Young Master was very pleased with himself, “This young master saw that little brother had an extraordinary bearing and knew how to make decisions, but had to surrender his status just for the nuisance of money, and I couldn’t bear it in my heart.”
“The blessings of the Qi people,* joyful happenings for all one’s life.” The Eldest Young Master spoke in a vulgar manner.
*blessings of the Qi people = idiom, referring to harmonious marriage
I looked towards the sky. “It’s a pity that Eldest Young Master has not done things right, and cannot enjoy the blessings of the Qi people.”
The Eldest Young Master questioned, “What is the meaning of your words?”
“What I lack now is not money.”
“Then what does this beauty want?”
“A doctor.”
After I jabbed squarely at these hurtful past events, Zhongli Zixu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He shook his head and said with a smile, “No matter, it is actually not impossible. Yaksha’s internal power was forcibly taken from him, his dantian* was damaged and he was unable to gather qi, thus making him unable to practice. There is no absolute cure for him, but.. this young master happens to know a gentleman who specializes in ‘making wedding clothes,’** he is able to draw the internal force of another person into one’s sea of qi, creating a foundation from this, and after recuperating, one will be no different from an ordinary person.”
*dantian = place in the body where one’s qi resides
**making wedding clothes = idiom, meaning doing good deeds for no cost
I joyfully said, “Very good, you’ve worked hard.”
“You haven’t gone stupid, have you?” Zhongli Zixu rolled his eyes at me as he spoke.
“Master, it absolutely cannot be done.” Ye Tan also urged.
My internal strength was all randomly changed out of thin air, so I naturally did not cherish it at all. As far as I was concerned, this was a joyous event like a meat pie falling out of the sky.
But Ye Tan clearly didn’t think so.
I knew he had misgivings, so I earnestly tried to persuade him the entire way back.
Ye Tan still pressed down his sword-like brows and knelt before my bed, resolutely saying, “Please allow this servant to refuse.”
I finally got what I wanted, tricking Ye Tan to sleep on the same bed with me.
It was just that every time I pressed an inch closer, he moved away an inch.
I spoke silently in my heart: Hurry! Take the opportunity before the doctor arrives to give me a kiss! Once I’m able to enter the modifier interface, I can adjust the values to be a bit higher. Along the way, I’ll add a little money, and this time I definitely won’t be stupid and get a retraction.
As I repeated this, I fell asleep.
I had a very complete and peaceful sleep. No one disturbed my lovely dreams.
Damn, he didn’t kiss me.
The next night, I hugged his arm tightly.
We slept like this.
Again, he didn’t kiss me.
Again, there was no modifier.
On the third night, I wrapped my hands and feet around his body.
We spent the night like this.
Yet he still didn’t kiss me.
Today, there was no modifier.
The day after that, Ye Tan looked at my face very cautiously: “Master, did something happen? In the past two days, your expression has become increasingly distressed.”
I looked at him bitterly, with unspeakable difficulty.
You still dare ask.
Why won’t you kiss me.
I’m so angry!
