Chapter 159: All Understood
Ji Zhisui held the rope in his hand, and while he was randomly tying it, he would accidentally touch Pei Yian's skin.
The man's skin was just as it looked, hard and powerful. The most important thing was that the skin her hands touched was burning hot. The burning sensation seemed to burn from her fingertips to her heart, making her feel as if her whole body was burned.
She clearly wanted to not care, but Ji Zhisui couldn't do it. The burning temperature at her fingertips made her try her best not to let her hands touch the man's skin.
There was a rustling sound in the house, the sound of hemp rope touching flesh, mixed with someone's heartbeat and breathing, which seemed ambiguous in this narrow, dark room.
After some deceptive manipulation by her, Ji Zhisui finally tied up the man with the hemp rope in his hand.
"Brother An, everything is done."
"Thank you, Sui Niang. I can do it on my own. You don't have to watch over me."
"Ah... okay." Ji Zhisui walked out dizzy.
The moment she closed the door, she couldn't help but glance towards the bathtub and saw Pei Yian had already entered the bathtub, sitting there alone and silently, with loneliness and coldness.
A feeling of heartache suddenly welled up in her heart, and she suddenly didn't want to leave and wanted to stay with him.
With her hand on the door handle, she finally closed the door with gritted teeth, but her footsteps went inside.
Hearing the noise, the man who had his eyes closed opened them and looked at Ji Zhisui, and their eyes met directly.
Ji Zhisui was a little overwhelmed, avoiding his gaze and explaining, "Brother An, I'll just stay and watch from a distance. Old Man Yan said it's best to have someone watching."
In the end, Pei Yian finally gave in, as he was also afraid that he would have other needs by then.
After the two finished their conversation, silence returned to the room.
Ji Zhisui's eyes scanned everywhere, occasionally falling on the person in the bathtub, but after that person closed his eyes, he did not move again.
She didn't want to keep staring at him, so she looked away and came into her own Lingquan space.
Looking at the pool of spiritual spring water, I suddenly felt a little regretful. Why did I secretly add some spiritual spring water into the bathtub before?
Looking at the person who was resting with his eyes closed, Ji Zhisui thought that maybe it would not be too late to put the water in now. He opened the door and pretended to get some water.
The moment she opened the door and came out, her eyes met with Pei Ersao who lived across the street.
Seeing this, Pei's second wife had an unspoken smile on her face. Knowing that she had misunderstood, Ji Zhisui explained, "Second sister-in-law, I..."
Before he could finish his words, Mrs. Pei interrupted him, "No need to explain! No need to explain! I understand everything, Sui Niang. I understand everything."
As someone who has been through this, how could she not understand this? Late at night, Su Niang came out of An Ge'er's room. You should know that Xingxing didn't sleep in this room today.
It seemed like something was up with these two people. She would tell her mother and grandmother the news later. Mrs. Pei gave them a sly smile and left.
Ji Zhisui was really helpless. This matter was not what she thought at all!
Looking at Pei Ersao walking away, she wanted to wait until she had time to explain. She picked up the bucket, added some hot water into the bucket, added half of the spiritual spring water, and carried the bucket into the room.
As soon as she entered the door, she heard the man groan, looking very uncomfortable.
Ji Zhisui's heart suddenly tightened. She hurried to Pei Yian and asked anxiously, "Brother An, are you...are you okay?"
I saw the person in front of me with his eyes closed, his brows furrowed, sweat dripping down his face, and his face as pale as paper, as if he was going through a lot of hardship.
"It's okay." The man uttered these two words with difficulty, but his voice was hoarse when he said these two words.
Ji Zhisui did not dare to delay and poured the bucket he brought into the bathtub, hoping that the spiritual spring water could work and make Pei Yian no longer feel so uncomfortable.
Pei Yian, who was originally in severe pain all over his body, gradually frowned. He felt a stream of clear water soothing the pain in his body, making him feel much better.
Pei Yian slowly opened his eyes, with some tiny beads of sweat on his cheeks. Through his hazy eyes, he saw Ji Zhisui standing in front of him with a worried look on his face.
"Sui Niang, I'm fine now, you should go and rest!"
It's strange to say, he was obviously feeling so uncomfortable before, but now he actually felt much better. This strange feeling seemed like a gust of wind that swept away all the discomfort in his body.
After hearing that the man's voice was no longer so hoarse and even his lips had regained some color, Ji Zhisui finally let go of his anxious heart.
It seems that this spiritual spring water is still very powerful. In the future, she will use this spiritual spring water to soak medicinal herbs for Ang, so that he will feel better.
Since the man was fine, Ji Zhisui didn't dare to stay any longer. From her position, she could just see the man's exposed chest, his lean and powerful muscles hidden under the water, and his slightly retracted jaw, which added a touch of sexiness and charm.
The more she looked at the person under the candlelight, the more beautiful he became. She couldn't help but sigh again that Ang Ge really had a good-looking face.
Pei Yian, who was resting with his eyes closed, didn't know the person in front of him. He stared at his own face in a daze for a long time.
He just felt that he felt much better and continued to excrete toxins from his body.
After soaking in the bathtub for an hour, the time was up. When he was about to get up, he found Ji Zhisui still standing by the door, so he stopped.
"Sui Niang, could you please get me a towel?"
With him around, Pei Yian felt embarrassed to stand up rashly.
Ji Zhisui also came to her senses. The bathtub was placed in the middle, which was indeed inconvenient to take various things. She hurriedly picked up a cloth from the side and handed it to the man.
When they took the towel, their fingertips inevitably touched. The scorching temperature made Ji Zhisui flinch. She quickly put her hand away and said in a panic, "Brother An, I'll go back first."
Anyway, he has already finished soaking, so I shouldn’t stay here and disturb him.
"Sui Niang, go back and go to bed early."
"Okay." After answering, Ji Zhisui left in a hurry.
After watching the figure leave, Pei Yian stood up from the bathtub and wiped the water marks on his body with a towel.
The medicine prescribed by Old Man Yan is indeed very useful. He now feels that his blocked meridians are much more unblocked.
He concentrated his mind and gathered his energy, but failed. This matter would have to be dealt with slowly.
Old Man Yan said that there are four courses of treatment, which take about a month. If he is cured after a month, he will probably have to leave for a while to do his business.
Before that, we must get rid of Sui Niang and the trouble with Baiwei Restaurant, as well as Song Yujin, who has ulterior motives...
I don’t know what he was thinking about, but a dark color flashed in Pei Yian’s hawk-like eyes.
