Chapter Index

    This time it was even worse than before. Wei Lin vomited until his eyes turned red and he burst into tears.

    Duan Xi stood up helplessly and walked to his side to cheer him up. Although he knew in his heart that this was just a reaction to morning sickness, looking at his uncomfortable look, he couldn’t help but feel pain like needles pricking him.

    “I’ll ask Yin Changlan to come in and show you.”

    Remembering that Yin Changlan was outside, Duan Xi said this, and just as he was about to pull out his hand, Wei Lin grabbed his sleeve.

    “No need, I’ll be fine in a while.”

    He was used to retching like this from time to time, and it didn’t seem to have any impact on his body. Besides, he was really embarrassed like this now.He was already a little embarrassed when Duan Xi saw him. If there was another one, where would he put his face?

    Duan Xi felt sorry for him, and originally wanted to let Yin Changlan take a look, but seeing his stubborn expression, she gave up her plan.

    Wei Lin was so arrogant and arrogant that he probably didn’t want others to laugh at him. Even if the person didn’t think so much, he would definitely not be happy about it.

    After thinking about this, Duan Xi compromised and sighed helplessly: “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

    As expected, Wei Lin stopped vomiting soon as he said. He was weak and sick, leaning against the back of the chair and panting, with no color on his face.

    Duan Xi’s face was gloomy, but he thoughtfully took a handkerchief to wipe his mouth.

    The two of them were very close. When Duan Xi leaned down, he could almost clearly see the curve of the blue blood vessels under Wei Lin’s pale skin. His whole body exuded a strange, sickly and broken beauty.

    His mouth felt dry for no reason.

    The black eyes as deep as the abyss became darker and darker, and Duan Xi admitted that he wanted to transcend.

    Whether accidentally or aware of the danger, Wei Lin took the handkerchief from his hand, his eyes wandering without any focus.

    I just heard him say calmly: “Don’t bother Sect Master Duan, I can do it myself.”

    Duan Xi rubbed the pads of his empty fingers and took them back in a hesitant manner.

    He coughed lightly to cover up his previous charming thoughts.

    Both of them were silent, and the atmosphere in the room became particularly depressing and weird.

    Wei Lin turned his face and did not dare to look at Duan Xi standing in front of him.I don’t know if it was his imagination, but for a moment, he felt like he would be skinned and devoured by Duan Xi.

    He glanced at Duan Xi from the corner of his eye. The latter looked like a gentleman and he was confident. In his heart, he suspected that he might be too sensitive.

    His mouth was filled with bitterness due to vomiting, and at this moment he had an extremely strong desire to eat something sour.

    The bed was some distance from the living room, and he was so weak from vomiting that it would be difficult to get the sour plums by himself.

    He hesitated for a moment, then simply broke the jar and said, “Can you… help me get the jar of sour plums, which is in the third compartment of the bedside table.”

    Anyway, Duan Xi has seen him look embarrassed a lot, and he doesn’t care if it happened once or twice.

    Duan Xi was a little surprised, “You’re not…”

    He stopped mid-sentence, as if he thought of something, he smiled silently, said nothing more, turned around and went to look for a clay pot.

    The clay pot is placed very conspicuously, and you can see it as soon as you open the cabinet.

    Duan Xi turned around with the clay pot in hand and opened the seal before approaching Wei Lin. The sweet, sour and slightly astringent taste made people salivate.

    Wei Lin was a little embarrassed and whispered his thanks when he took the pottery pot.

    After twisting one and putting it in his mouth, Wei Lin’s uncomfortable stomach seemed to come alive.

    Duan Xi felt funny in her heart. She didn’t like sweet food, but she liked sour food?

    He picked up a sour plum and looked at it curiously. The person opposite looked at him with confusion.He didn’t explain it, he just tasted it and it felt like that.

    He spat out the sour plums with slight disgust, and the roots of his teeth were a little soft from the soreness. Maybe it was because pregnant people are acidophilic, but Wei Lin didn’t seem to feel anything at all.

    He put his hands behind his back, and there was an almost imperceptible affection brewing in the depths of his eyes.

    “If you like it, I’ll bring more back next time.”

    Wei Lin nodded obediently.

    A jar of sour plums relieved the weird atmosphere just now, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

    The look in Duan Xi’s eyes just now was too dangerous. If he kept that kind of atmosphere, he might not be able to help but run away.

    Because he had just vomited and cried, Wei Lin’s eyes were still red, and there were dots of tears on his eyelashes. There were fine beads of sweat on his forehead. He was leaning against the back of the chair, looking like he had been bullied.

    Duan Xi took a deep breath and suppressed his restless heart. He took off the sweat towel on the shelf and leaned over Wei Lin.

    Wei Lin felt his eyes go dark, and Duan Xi’s face was suddenly close at hand.The dazzling red hair like fire swept across her cheeks, leaving a numb and itchy feeling.

    He was startled, his heart pounding nervously, but he still tried his best to remain calm on his face.

    He put one hand on Duan Xi’s shoulder to push him back, and protected the pot with the other hand, frowning slightly: “What are you doing?”

    Duan Xi stared at him with lowered eyes, raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile: “I’ll help you wipe your sweat.”

    Wei Lin snorted: “No need, I know how to wipe it myself.”

    This time he used a little more force, but Duan Xi didn’t bother him and leaned back according to his strength.

    Just at this time, the door was pushed open from the outside in, and Yin Changlan walked in with a warm smile on his face. When his eyes touched the two people who looked like they were hugging each other from his angle, the smile on his lips could not be held for an instant.

    Three people and six pairs of eyes intertwined with each other, and they were suddenly extremely embarrassed.

    Yin Changlan took a step back and said, “Sorry, I didn’t know you were making out, sorry for disturbing you.”

    The door was slammed shut.

    Without thinking, he knew that he must have misunderstood. Wei Lin’s heart was filled with evil fire, and he raised his foot to crush Duan Xi’s shoes with an expressionless expression.

    Wei Lin’s strength was already low due to illness, and with his shoes on, it felt like he was being teased and tickled.

    Duan Xi smiled in a deep voice, “It’s not very good, madam, to seduce me like this.”

    Wei Lin pursed his lips, raised his hand and pulled him aside, then stood up and straightened his clothes.

    He raised his chin slightly, his face not very pretty.

    “Master Duan should pay more attention to the impact. If word spreads, it will be misunderstood. It will not be good for you and my reputation.”

    Duan Xi clenched his fist in front of his mouth and laughed: “Don’t you know that the whole world of immortals now knows that we are having an affair?”

    Wei Lin froze, “When did it happen?”

    Duan Xi narrowed his eyes and said, “Just a few days ago.”

    “Did you spread the word?”

    Wei Lin almost gritted his teeth and asked this question from between his teeth. Duan Xi shook his head innocently and said, “It’s Zhao Heng.”

    It’s just that what Zhao Heng said was that he and Wei Lin were working together, but Duan Xi deliberately distorted the facts and caused Wei Lin to misunderstand.

    Wei Lin: “…”

    This time Feng Ping was really killed, and Wei Lin was so angry that his heart ached.

    He only deceived Zhao Heng once, but the news of his love affair with the other party spread like wildfire, making it known to everyone.If the original owner comes back one day and finds himself tied up with his former mortal enemy for no reason, he will probably be so angry that he vomits blood.

    He put the pot down depressedly and walked out of the room with a sullen face.

    What he didn’t see was that Duan Xi behind him looked proud that his plan had succeeded.

    Outside the courtyard, Yin Changlan was squatting beside the medicine shelf, tending to the herbs.

    Wei Lin paused as he walked forward, but then he thought about what he felt guilty about since nothing really happened between him and Duan Xi.

    I don’t know if it’s his misunderstanding, but it seems that Duan Xi has become different since he got drunk last night, but the specific differences are hard to figure out.

    But one thing is obvious, that is, Duan Xi always seems to want to have some skin contact with him.

    Wei Lin felt vaguely weird, but he was afraid that he was too sensitive and overthinking.At that time, it would be embarrassing if Duan Xi directly asked him if he had any unwanted thoughts about him and was laughed at by the other party for thinking too much.

    Duan Xi had already followed behind him, and he walked straight towards Yin Changlan without stopping.

    Although the vomiting reaction did not affect the body, Wei Lin felt it was necessary to ask Yin Changlan.

    At first, he thought that nausea and vomiting were all the sequelae of being possessed by a demon, but now that he thought about it carefully, it seemed that the demonic energy eroded the spiritual roots and meridians. Even if it eroded the body, it should also cause pain in the internal organs.Why is it that only the stomach feels nauseated and only reacts to unpleasant smells?

    What puzzles him most is why his eating habits of more than 20 years have changed along with the nausea.

    He had never eaten sweet food before, and he ate very little sour food.

    He felt that he might be more than just possessed.

    Just as he was thinking about it, someone stretched his arms around his shoulders from back to front. Wei Lin was caught off guard and almost tripped.

    He frowned in displeasure: “Master Duan, what are you doing?”

    Were all the things you said to him earlier eaten by dogs?

    Duan Xi whispered, “Don’t look at the road when you walk. If I didn’t hold you, you would really fall to the ground.”

    Wei Lin tilted his head and looked at his feet. He happened to be standing on the first step.He was so distracted just now that he didn’t realize there was a step here.

    He pushed aside Duan Xi’s arm and said calmly: “Thank you.”

    Then he ruthlessly left the person behind.

    Duan Xi smiled deeply and followed with a happy expression.

    Yin Changlan, who had always had his back turned to the two of them, but was actually watching the show, stood up at this moment, with his usual warm smile on his lips, without any embarrassment of breaking the good news between the two of them, as if he didn’t see anything that happened just now.

    Wei Lin also pretended that nothing happened, nodded towards Yin Changlan and said, “Fellow Daoist Yin, I have something I want to ask you to clarify.”

    Yin Changlan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, “Madam, please speak.”

    “Why do I always feel nauseous and vomiting? This shouldn’t have anything to do with being obsessed, right?”

    Wei Lin went straight to the topic. Duan Xi and Yin Changlan’s hearts twitched at the same time, wondering if he had discovered something?

    Yin Changlan carefully observed Wei Lin’s expression and guessed that he just had doubts in his heart. In fact, he was not sure what the reason was.

    The smile in his eyes deepened a little, and under Duan Xi’s slightly warning eyes, he said seriously: “Chang Lan has told Madam before that your physical condition is quite complicated, and even a pulse test cannot tell the truth. What is the cause of vomiting, it should be that Madam is too weak.”

    “Really?” Wei Lin didn’t believe it, but couldn’t seem to find any other reasonable explanation.

    Duan Xi muddied the water on the side and said: “If you are really worried, Uncle Master will go to Tianmen tomorrow and he will give you a look in person, and you should be able to find out the reason.”

    Wei Lin’s doubts became more and more serious. The two people in front of him were very normal, but he just felt that these two people must be hiding something from him.Combined with the fact that Yin Changlan left in a hurry after taking his pulse some time ago, Wei Lin even felt that there was something wrong with these two people.

    He hid his doubts in his heart and echoed the two of them: “This is the only way.”
