Chapter 1346 - 1333: Su Yuya's Relapse (2)
It's hard to say how much time passed before Song Xiaodong tilted his head and once again lay heavily on Su Yuya, falling into a deep sleep.
Last time, although he was utterly exhausted, he managed to stay awake after the treatment. But this time, he couldn't do it at all; just holding on until the end was already a considerable feat.
As the True Qi's torment gradually weakened, Su Yuya regained her senses and saw Song Xiaodong's sweaty face as he treated her.
This really made her feel indescribably moved and pained; she was truly afraid of wearing Song Xiaodong out. She wanted to tell him to stop but was scared of distracting him, causing all efforts to fail and, thus, wasting all of Song Xiaodong's hard work.
She was also utterly exhausted and couldn't move Song Xiaodong, so she could only let him lie on top of her.
However, her mind was racing. This kind of pain, she really didn't want to endure it again; it was like being roasted on a barbecue grill.
But Miao Qingqing said that if she wanted to be completely healed, she must do Dual Cultivation with Song Xiaodong, which means sleeping together. This thought of being in bed with Song Xiaodong made Su Yuya feel extremely awkward.
Having spent so much time with Song Xiaodong, his personal charisma and the way he handled things were all commendable to Su Yuya, but this admiration wasn't love.
Today was He Lingzhi's day, so she came to the main villa. Although it was still daylight, she needed to communicate with everyone; otherwise, it would be awkward later when going to bed, especially since it wasn't just her and Song Xiaodong; there were others too.
But as soon as she entered, she saw everyone anxiously standing outside a room on the first floor, the atmosphere quite heavy as if something serious had happened.
"What's going on?" He Lingzhi walked over, quietly asking Song Xiaoru. She was most familiar with Song Xiaoru and found her the easiest to talk to.
"Dongzi is treating little auntie," Song Xiaoru whispered.
"Dual Cultivation?" He Lingzhi immediately perked up.
Song Xiaoru shook her head, saying, "We don't know what's going on; we dare not carelessly open the door in case it disturbs Dongzi."
"Then I'll open the door and take a look; I promise I won't make any noise with the door," He Lingzhi volunteered.
The previous time, it was Sun Yiyi who checked, so Song Xiaoru immediately agreed.
He Lingzhi carefully opened the door without making a sound, and everyone peeked through the crack, seeing Song Xiaodong lying on top of Su Yuya.
In this situation, everyone knew the treatment was over, so they rushed in.
Su Yuya hadn't expected everyone to come in all at once. Suddenly embarrassed, she wished she could find a place to hide, especially since she was unclothed with Song Xiaodong still lying on her chest.
"Little auntie, how are you?" Miao Qingqing asked anxiously.
"I'm okay, just weak, no strength," Su Yuya's voice was soft, primarily because of embarrassment rather than weakness.
"That's good, that's good." Miao Qingqing exhaled in relief.
At this moment, He Lingzhi held Song Xiaodong's hand and exclaimed, "Amazing, True Qi is exhausted."
Su Yuya was startled and asked, "Family Head... will she be alright?"
"It's okay, this kind of True Qi depletion will regenerate soon, just let her rest a bit," He Lingzhi said, looking at Su Yuya. "This fool, clearly Dual Cultivation would have been more effective, yet he used this clumsy method and wore himself out."
Su Yuya felt even more awkward, her lips moving without knowing what to say, overwhelmed with guilt. If she had agreed to Dual Cultivation with Song Xiaodong, wouldn't he have been less exhausted? Now she bore the greatest responsibility.
"Could you... let the Family Head have a good rest?" Su Yuya took a deep breath and asked softly.
He Lingzhi immediately lifted Song Xiaodong up, saying, "I'll take her back to the room."
After He Lingzhi left, Miao Qingqing pulled the blanket over Su Yuya, and Song Xiaoru said, "Little auntie, you should rest well."
Everyone else also exited, but Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan stayed behind.
Miao Qingqing sighed, "Little auntie..."
Su Yuya gave a bitter smile, "Qingqing, I know what you want to say."
Miao Xuanxuan asked, "So, what are you thinking? This can't be delayed."
Su Yuya's lips twitched, "I don't know what to think, but just because of treatment, I just... it feels wrong."
Miao Xuanxuan said, "What's wrong with it? You don't want to die, do you?"
"Of course, I don't want to die, but... you are my nieces. How could I..."
"So what? Anyway, your relationship with Uncle isn't good, you could get a divorce and be with us. Besides, aren't you already with us every day, always by Dongzi's side? It's just that you'll be sharing a bed with him at night."
Miao Xuanxuan spoke casually, but Su Yuya blushed deeply, chiding, "Xuanxuan, how can you speak like this to your little aunt?"
Miao Xuanxuan giggled, "It's an unavoidable fact, and don't you think the three of us sisters together with you, little aunt, would make Dongzi more excited?"
