In the base, Lin Qiao stablized Yuan Tianxing’s condition and stayed in the hospital room, thinking about how to solve the problem more efficiently. She had used the energy contained in the large bucket of water, but the effect wouldn’t last for long.
In two hours, she would probably need to renew the water. And when doing that, she also needed to control the energy in the water, which meant she couldn’t leave Yuan Tianxing’s side for more than two hours. If she couldn’t make it back in two hours to renew the water, his life would be in danger.
Should she throw Yuan Tianxing directly into the lake in her space and then suppress the dark energy inside him with the power of the whole lake? She couldn’t come back to renew the water every two hours.
It seemed that the best idea would be washing Yuan Tianxing clean and then throwing her into the lake.
As for why wash him, she still needed to drink from that lake… Well, she herself bathed in the lake all the time as well… Em, the lake was probably not so clean anymore.
Lin Qiao chose to ignore that awkward problem.
Lin Qiao spent a short while thinking, then decided to put him into the lake. That would save her a lot of time and energy. So, she said to Lin Hao, “Help me wash him clean and put an underwear on him. After that, I’ll put him into the lake in my space. His condition may worsen at any moment. I’m afraid that I wouldn’t have so much time to make it back here to deal with it then.”
Lin Hao also felt that would be a good idea, so he nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll wash him.”
Before walking out of the room, Lin Qiao turned to remind him, “Get him clean…”
Lin Hao stayed silent and told himself not to drink too much of the lake water. Maybe he shouldn’t drink it at all, unless he had no other choice.
Lin Qiao waited outside the room. Half an hour later, Lin Hao came out with a sullen face and his sleeves rolled up. “It’s done,” he said with a tired voice.
Lin Qiao turned and walked into the room. Yuan Tianxing’s pants were gone, and his hair were wet. He was wearing only a white pair of underwear, and his entire body was dark purple, looking very weird.
She reached out and held his arm, then brought him into the space. In the space, she showed up in the air upon the lake and threw him in.
Plop!
After throwing him off, Lin Qiao flashed to the lakeside, took off her own clothes, and dove into the water. Once in, she swam up to him like a fish and put a hand against his chest. By using her mind power, she gathered the surrounding energy in the lake. The green energy condensed and grew dark, accumulating around him and wrapping him up. His underwear dissolved in the energy as the energy covered his entire body up.
Only when he was surrounded in the green energy did she slowly retract her hand and swim toward the water surface. She went back to the lakeside and put on her clothes, then flashed out of the space.
Duan Juan and Lin Hao were waiting for her outside the room. They watched Lin Qiao disappear and then reappear in the room, and figured that she had brought Yuan Tianxing’s condition under temporary control.
“Haven’t you made any progress on the development of the drug for his condition yet?” Lin Qiao came out and said to Lin Hao, her hair still wet.
Lin Hao shook his head in response, and his handsome face wore a bitter look. “No. I’ve even tried the roots that you brought back from the cave last time,” he said, “It didn’t work. I have no idea what can suppress that energy. I haven’t even figured out the nature of that energy yet. There isn’t gonna be a cure anytime soon.”
“Be patient!” Lin Qiao patted him on the shoulder and said, “I can stabilize his condition for now at least. We still can’t relax though. Work hard!”
Lin Hao sighed, “If only Wenwen were here… At least, she could give Yuan Tianxing that bath! She would be happy to take advantage of Tianxing… I felt as if my eyes stung after I bathed him!”
Recalling how he stripped Yuan Tianxing and bathed him just now, he felt very awkward. Yuan Tianxing’s body was so perfectly shaped that he was actually jealous. But, he liked girls, and had no interest in his body at all, especially that part of the man’s body. At first, he was curious about Yuan Tianxing’s size, but after comparing it with himself, he found it very unbearable to watch.
And, he had to clean that part of Yuan Tianxing’s body. He even wanted to die when he was doing that. Lin Wenwen, who was into Yuan Tianxing, would be so thrilled to do that job!
Noticing the look on his face, Lin Qiao laughed, “What? Yuan Tianxing has a nice shape, right? He’s a good-looking one. Are you jealous of him? Indeed, you two look quite different. You’re right though. Taking care of him when he’s in such a condition will be helpful for Wenwen as well. She’s not here though… Eh, I can’t believe they had accidents at the same time.”
Seeing the look on Lin Hao’s face, Duan Juan also couldn’t help but turn up her lips in a smile.
Lin Hao shrugged and said, “Who knows! Maybe they’re just destined to go through accidents at the same time.”
“Alright, this is it. I’m heading back,” Lin Qiao waved at him and prepared to leave for home.
Back home, the two kids were still playing in the living room while the noise of stir-frying was heard from the kitchen. She looked at the time. She was away for almost an hour. Hadn’t the man finished cooking?
She had a towel on her head; her hair were half-dried and messy. She walked to Teng’s side and sat down, then scooped up the boy and put him on her knees.
“Hm, you’ve gained some weight indeed. Can you stand now?” She put her hands under the boy’s arms to weigh him, then looked at the boy and asked.
“Not yet,” Teng shook his head as he looked at Lin Qiao and said.
At that moment, Wu Yueling came to Lin Qiao’s side and looked at her adorably as she said with a small voice, “He… crawls fast.”
He couldn’t stand up yet, but he crawled really fast.
Lin Qiao looked at the little girl. Seeing the sweet smile on the girl’s face, she rubbed her head and smiled, “He’s always good at crawling. If he can stand up, he might learn how to run before walking.”
The boy was super energetic. If he were able to stand up, he would be going everywhere.
She remembered Teng once became like a vine plant and came out of the lake in the space. At that time, he was active already. He could only run clumsily back then though.
Lin Qiao’s words made Wu Yueling cover her mouth and chuckle. That really sounded like something her little brother would do. But, if he tried to run before he learned how to walk, he would probably fall!
