The noise coming from outside the door disturbed the mother and son who were preparing to go to bed. Chu Qian was a little surprised. Who would visit at this time? She hesitated for a moment, but decided to stick her head out to find out.
When she heard Leng Qingqiu's voice, her face was full of confusion. Why would her junior sister suddenly come here so late?
However, Chu Qian did not dwell on this issue too much. She quickly placed Xiao Ning in her arms on the bed beside her, then quickly walked to the door and opened it.
When she saw Leng Qingqiu in front of the door, she couldn't help but look a little bewildered and asked softly:
"Qiu'er, it's so late, what's the matter?"
Leng Qingqiu smiled slightly, and the smile looked a little pale under the moonlight. She hesitated for a moment, then stretched her head to the inner room. When her eyes fell on Xiao Ning who was yawning on the bed, a hint of embarrassment flashed across her face. Then she looked at Chu Qian a little embarrassedly and said softly:
"Senior Sister, I need your help with something..."
Chu Qian stared at Leng Qingqiu's face, as if she was thinking about something. After a while, she suddenly slapped her forehead as if she remembered something important, and said with sudden enlightenment:
"Oh, look at my memory. Your body is acting up again, right?"
After hearing Chu Qian's words, Leng Qingqiu finally showed a shy smile on his face, as if someone had touched upon his secrets.
Seeing this, Chu Qian hurried forward, opened the door, and welcomed him in with a smile on her face. The two walked to the bed together. At this time, Xiao Ning, who had been sitting on the bed, raised his head and his eyes fell on Leng Qingqiu, with a confused look on his face.
"Auntie Leng, why are you here suddenly?" Xiao Ning asked curiously.
Chu Qian quickly explained: "Ning'er, your aunt Leng is not feeling well today, so mother can't sleep with you tonight. You can sleep in the next room, okay?"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Ning jumped up from the bed as if he had been injected with a shot of stimulant, and said excitedly: "Great! That's great! I can finally sleep alone!"
As he spoke, he quickly picked up the mattress and pillow, and ran out the door like a happy little rabbit. Chu Qian looked at her son's excitement and felt a little disappointed. She muttered unhappily:
"You stinky boy, look how happy you are, as if you hate sleeping with me. Humph, when you know how good I am and cry and call for me, I won't bother to pay attention to him! You
However, Xiao Ning didn't seem to take Chu Qian's "threat" seriously at all. He just held the quilt and ran out the door in a hurry, as if he was afraid that Chu Qian would go back on her word.
Leng Qingqiu, who was standing nearby, saw the interaction between the mother and son and couldn't help but chuckle. She walked over to Chu Qian and gently comforted her:
"Ning'er is already this old, and you still let him sleep with you. It's really not appropriate. Children always want some independent space of their own."
In response to Leng Qingqiu's words, Chu Qian just waved her hand casually, as if she didn't care about what she said.
"Ning'er is different,"
Chu Qian's tone was somewhat helpless. "This child was kidnapped by a bitch when he was young, and he has been away from me for more than a year. I absolutely cannot let my child suffer any injustice again. Let's wait until he grows up a little bit before we talk about it."
Leng Qingqiu's mind was as clear as a mirror. She certainly knew who Chu Qian was referring to as a "bitch". However, she also understood Chu Qian's feelings. After all, she herself had not experienced the pain of losing a child. Especially after losing and getting her child back, Chu Qian's mind was almost entirely on Xiao Ning, without stopping for a moment.
For a moment, the room fell into an awkward silence. After a long while, Chu Qian suddenly came to her senses, quickly grabbed Leng Qingqiu's hand, and said softly:
"Okay, don't think about it for now, let's get down to business. Come, I'll help you get rid of the cold."
Leng Qingqiu nodded slightly, indicating her agreement. She slowly took off her embroidered shoes and climbed onto the bed. Then, she slowly untied the light blue waist rope around her waist. As the waist rope loosened, her top also slipped off, revealing a pair of white shoulders and the bellyband embroidered with white lotus.
Chu Qian smiled and asked Leng Qingqiu to turn around and face away from her. Leng Qingqiu did as she was told. She elegantly sat cross-legged on the table, showing her smooth jade-like back to Chu Qian without reservation.
Chu Qian closed her eyes slightly, and her right hand danced slowly in front of her chest, as if she was painting a mysterious picture. Her lips parted slightly, and she muttered something in a low and soft voice, as if she was communicating with some mysterious power.
As she chanted the spell, a faint red light gradually emerged from her hand. This red light was just a faint light at first, but as Chu Qian continued to chant the spell, it became brighter and redder, and finally gathered into a blazing flame.
"Be patient, it might hurt." Chu Qian looked at Leng Qingqiu and said softly.
Leng Qingqiu didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly, motioning her to continue.
Chu Qian took a deep breath, and then gently pressed her palm, which was covered with red light, against Leng Qingqiu's back. At the moment when her palm touched her skin, Leng Qingqiu suddenly groaned in pain. The sound echoed in the silent room, making people feel pity.
At the same time, a thin layer of sweat quickly seeped out of Leng Qingqiu's forehead, and her body began to tremble involuntarily.
