After seeing everyone off from the base, Pei Xiqing was still pondering the words Qiu Chao had left behind before he left.
What does it mean that the complete fusion of her superpowers and the Qiong Snake is the key to restoring Duan Xiaolin's superpowers?
The literal meaning... seems easy to understand, but when you actually put it into practice, it is really hard to understand.
She thought for a long time, until Ma Mengxiang came to her with Ruirui in her arms, and then she came to her senses: "Huh? What's wrong?"
Ma Mengxiang said: "You don't want your son anymore?!"
"Didn't I ask Auntie to take care of him? What's wrong? Are you crying?"
Ma Mengxiang said angrily, "Auntie has been taking care of him the whole time, but he keeps crying. You and Brother Duan don't bother to see him. Where were you last night? He cried all night without seeing you. Auntie coaxed him for a long time before he finally fell asleep, and he started crying again as soon as he woke up. I had no choice but to carry him to come to you."
"Come, let me hold you." Pei Xiqing said, "I'm sorry, but I'll apologize to Auntie and give her a raise later."
"I don't want your little salary. You're too polite. Everyone is very nice. Ruirui was taken care of by everyone before. Now that you are finally here, how could you not come all night?" Ma Mengxiang asked doubtfully: "So, Xiqing, what did you and Brother Duan do last night?"
…
Pei Xiqing's ears turned red with embarrassment.
I couldn't say anything for a long time.
Ma Mengxiang looked so curious that she was determined to get to the bottom of it. "Huh? You two must have been drunk and ended up sleeping on the side of the road somewhere, both of you drunk and forgetting the way to the village."
Pei Xiqing coughed: "Oh, that's about it."
"I remember that Brother Duan has a good alcohol tolerance, so how come he got drunk last night? It's really strange..."
Pei Xiqing held Ruirui in his arms and hurried towards the place.
I dare not stay for a moment.
As for last night...it was true that she and Duan Xiaolin did not return home all night. He had already arranged for the child's well-being, but he did not expect Ruirui to cry so hard.
She carried the child all the way home. Duan Xiaolin was discussing the follow-up repair procedures with the people around him. When they came out of the study together, he saw her holding a child. He paused slightly and took over. "I heard that she kept crying last night. Is she sick? Do you want to call a doctor?"
Pei Xiqing felt a little ashamed. "No, I'll carry him to bed and feed him some milk. He should fall asleep soon."
Duan Xiaolin waved his hand to signal the others to leave, "That's all for today."
"good."
"Then we'll leave first, brother Duan."
After everyone left, Duan Xiaolin put his arm around her waist and pressed it suggestively with his palm.
Pei Xiqing's waist softened instantly, and she almost couldn't stand and fell into his arms with Ruirui.
Her face flushed. "It's all your fault. I had to sleep in the office all night... Ruirui was crying the whole night. Didn't you feel bad for her?"
"I feel sorry for him, but I feel even more sorry for you." He said, "You cried so hard last night, and I had to comfort you first."
Pei Xiqing was suddenly at a loss for words: "Go away!"
She said: "You are the one who made me cry, and you still have the nerve to say that, really..."
Pei Xiqing handed the child to him, made a bottle of milk powder, fed him for a while, and then gave him the remaining milk to feed: "You coax him to sleep, I want to take a bath."
I haven't taken a shower since last night, and I'm almost sticking to her.
Pei Xiqing took the clothes, quickly took off the dirty clothes in the bathroom, stepped into the bathtub with warm water, and took a comfortable hot bath.
It was as if the traces left by the man last night could finally be diluted.
My muscles and bones seemed to be much more unblocked.
After taking a bath, Pei Xiqing wiped her hair and looked at the child in the next room.
Seeing that the child had fallen asleep peacefully, she pulled the man who was standing beside her and whispered, "Brother Duan, let's go."
Duan Xiaolin put down the bottle in his hand, stood up and followed her away.
After leaving the room, Pei Xiqing combed her hair and said, "Brother Qiu Chao told me about your superpowers before he left."
She relayed to him what Qiu Chao had said at the time and wanted to ask for his opinion: "Do you think it's feasible?"
"Haven't you already realized the true power of the Qiong Snake?"
"That's right." Pei Xiqing nodded. "That's why I'm so confused. Why is that? Brother Qiu Chao doesn't seem like someone who would talk nonsense about such a situation. So... I think it's necessary to ask Qiushe to come out again."
"It seemed to be dormant some time ago."
"Yeah." Pei Xiqing looked at his palm: "But after resting for such a long time, I feel it should be healed."
As she spoke, the snake's supernatural chain quietly spread out from her palm, vaguely wrapping around her arm.
The link connection method does not make people feel any burden. Instead, as long as they reach a certain height, they can use and control them at will.
A coiled snake leaped into his palm, and Pei Xiqing waved his finger at it.
"Do you know how to restore Brother Duan's ability to normal so that it doesn't backfire every time he uses it?"
Snake: ...
Duan Xiaolin curled his lips: "If it could speak, it wouldn't be content to just be a possessed supernatural power."
"That's right."
Pei Xiqing poked the link of the snake.
The horned snake shook its tail, as if in response.
Apart from this, there is nothing else.
Pei Xi was puzzled.
Everyone is scratching their heads here.
The man held her hand and said, "Don't worry, there will always be a solution."
"But I want you to recover as quickly as possible. Otherwise, every time you use your superpowers, it will be very painful. Superpowers are not something that can bring you power, but something that brings you pain."
"That's something we have to take our time with. I don't have any special abilities right now." The man was amused, especially when he saw her eyes full of worry. He couldn't help but lower his head and kiss the corner of her lips. "There's still a long way to go. There's no need to rush. Besides, whether it's in the past or now, I have you to protect me. I'm even less worried."
Pei Xiqing couldn't help but give him a blank look.
Grab his hand that is touching you randomly.
"Hmph, let me study it myself. I have a feeling that after all that Qiu Chao-ge said, maybe he doesn't want the power of the Qiong Snake at all. I want to rely on my own strength."
"Yeah?"
Pei Xiqing pushed him away and said, "You should take a shower too. You'll definitely have a lot of energy later. I also want to visit Mengxiang and the others, and by the way, I'll go to the shed to see how everyone is doing recently. I won't keep you away."
As she was saying this, she was about to go into the room by herself, but unexpectedly the man grabbed her by the waist from behind.
Pei Xiqing's body suddenly flew into the air, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "What are you doing!"
Duan Xiaolin easily carried the man up and said, "Take a shower."
"I've already showered...put me down...I don't want to shower anymore. I need to catch up on some sleep. I still have a lot of fun later..."
