Supreme Divine Physician in the City
Chapter 1651: Beautiful Inside and Out
Qin Yitian is just too adorable.
Even Ye Xuan, who is usually carefree, felt a pang of conscience seeing her cuteness at this moment.
Was this girl still quiet because Ye Xuan hadn’t spoken, fearing she might ruin everything with the Bone-Eroding Poison removal process?
Instinctively, Ye Xuan wanted to make up some excuse to let Qin Yitian remain still for several hours, or even days.
But when those words were about to leave his mouth, he saw Qin Yitian’s shy and rigid expression full of trust, and he couldn’t bear to do it. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
Ye Xuan awkwardly laughed: "Sorry, I forgot to tell you before I lost consciousness, the Bone-Eroding Poison in your body has almost been completely removed. There’s just a small amount left which you’ll need to manage yourself, but it won’t threaten your life. So... you could’ve put your clothes back on quite some time ago."
"What—"
Immediately, Qin Yitian was stunned.
Could have put her clothes back on quite some time ago?
Even Su Yumo was surprised upon hearing this, her expression became odd as she glanced at the dumbfounded Yue’er, feeling both amused and helpless.
It was recalled that after Ye Xuan fainted, he slept unmoving in Qin Yitian’s arms.
When Qin Yitian woke up, shy to the extreme, wanting to push Ye Xuan away, Yue’er stopped her, suggesting that Ye Xuan might be doing the final step of detoxification, explaining in a very convincing manner, claiming the Taiyin Divine Needle was unpredictable and complex...
Turns out, they were deceived!
Swipe!
Qin Yitian snapped out of it, suddenly turning her head, glaring sharply at Yue’er, seemingly wanting to swallow that annoying girl whole.
Yue’er, meeting Qin Yitian’s fierce gaze, shivered, feeling her whole body chill, almost trembling with fear.
Growing up with Qin Yitian, it was the first time she saw such a severe Yitian sister; she was genuinely angry this time!
"Yitian sister..."
Yue’er was very nervous, face pale, wanting to explain.
Qin Yitian waved her hand, signaling Yue’er not to speak.
She’s a highly proud and intelligent woman. She knew that since things had developed this way, saying more was not only meaningless but would also make her situation more awkward and the atmosphere more ambiguous and strange.
Too tangled, too complicated!
"Phew—"
Qin Yitian exhaled heavily in her heart, trying to calm her storm-like emotions.
Then, she lowered her eyes, neither happy nor sad, as if nothing had happened, calmly picking up her clothes and, as if no one was around, wearing them slowly and steadily.
Calm and composed!
Ye Xuan, watching from the side, couldn’t help but smack his lips in admiration. This Qin Yitian, despite being a Martial Arts Goddess, truly possessed an extraordinary demeanor; no matter how turbulent her heart was, she could hide it. It was just as if she were an old fox!
Not long afterwards, the scene vanished, and Qin Yitian dressed perfectly, got out of bed gracefully. Despite evident weakness, her cold temperament made her regain her unattainable Goddess stature.
Qin Yitian glanced at the remaining bloodstains on the bed, sighed softly: "I truly apologize for dirtying your bed..."
"It’s alright." Su Yumo said gently with a smile: "This sheet is old anyway, I was planning to replace it in a few days, so it’s no trouble."
Qin Yitian was bewildered, deeply gazing at Su Yumo, nodding and smiling like a heavenly melody flowing: "You’re so kind, beauty inside and out."
Su Yumo’s pretty face turned red, a bit embarrassed to be praised.
Qin Yitian said no more, turning her gaze to Ye Xuan after a moment of silence, finally speaking: "I still have to thank you, such life-saving grace is as hefty as a mountain."
"I told you, it was just a trivial act." Ye Xuan said with a smile: "If you keep on thanking me like this, why not give me some meaningful reward instead?"
"The Divine Doctor Sect has always had rules, whenever we save someone, we must get a reward, even if it’s as light as a feather, I understand."
Qin Yitian nodded: "However, Mr. Ye Xuan is wealthy enough to rival nations, there’s hardly anything you can’t achieve in this world. I, a simple girl, truly have nothing to give you. Why don’t I just promise you one thing?
Let it be known that whenever you need something in the future, just say it, regardless of whether I can achieve it, I won’t hesitate, venturing into fire or water without regret or complaint, how about that?"
Ye Xuan was stunned, feeling oddly uncomfortable.
Because Qin Yitian’s attitude towards him suddenly became distant.
Not long ago, she spoke candidly about never expressing gratitude explicitly, yet now she was drawing such clear lines, turning the treatment into a straightforward transaction, wasn’t it distant?
As expected, all women are heartless big pig trotters. Just because you realized that during the past hour you could’ve put on your clothes earlier, should you blame me? Clearly, it’s your own Yue’er’s whimsical assumptions!
I’m still your savior!
But Ye Xuan wasn’t petty, since he didn’t suffer any losses tonight, he decided not to bicker with Qin Yitian.
Hmph, I am magnanimous!
"If it comforts you, I am naturally willing."
Ye Xuan said with a smile: "So, it’s settled then, you owe me a promise, no expiration, I can exercise this right anytime."
"Yes, anytime." Qin Yitian nodded in confirmation.
Ye Xuan shrugged, touched his nose and suddenly remembered: "Oh, the Bone-Eroding Poison in your body hasn’t been fully cleared. The rest, although not fatal, will affect your strength. Let me write you a prescription; using it daily and managing well, you should fully recover in three months."
"Three months?" Qin Yitian frowned.
It’s less than three months until the Martial Arts tournament!
"That’s already the fastest time achievable, considering it’s a poison from the Hundred Poison List. If recovery isn’t ideal, it could take half a year or more to reach your peak!" Ye Xuan shrugged.
Qin Yitian’s eyes twinkled, eventually sighing: "Alright."
Ye Xuan immediately found paper and pen, writing down a prescription for Qin Yitian.
Without looking at it, Qin Yitian put away the prescription, slightly bowed to Ye Xuan: "Until we meet again, farewell."
With that, she prepared to leave with Yue’er.
"Let me escort you." Ye Xuan thought and said: "There’s no guarantee Zhao Zongsheng’s group has truly returned to the Martial Arts world; just to be safe, I’ll protect you for a while."
"Thank you for your generous offer, Mr. Ye Xuan, but there’s no need."
Qin Yitian declined: "Lives are predetermined, if the heavens wish for my end today, excessive resistance is meaningless."
As those words fell, Qin Yitian didn’t wait for Ye Xuan to speak again, promptly turned and left Su Yumo’s room.
Resolute!
