RBCT 045. Don't move around.
045. Don't move around.
Xinlai looked weakly at Eve, without answering.
But his eyes clearly said: I'm just a patient, taking medicine, why are you sticking out your tongue?
Since he didn't speak, Eve took it as his consent.
After all, in those comic books, the male and female protagonists would stick out their tongues passionately whenever they kissed...
She glanced at Alaya, her eyes pleading.
Alaya responded with encouraging eyes, making her understand that she could only rely on herself at this moment.
Not only that, Alaya also tactfully stood up, dusted off her skirt, and bowed slightly, saying:
"Your Highness, Miss Eve, since the treatment is about to begin, I won't disturb you any longer."
Xinlai nodded and cast an approving glance at Aleya again; Eve didn't know what to say to keep Aleya, and watched helplessly as Aleya disappeared from sight.
Just as the two were about to fall into an awkward situation again, Alaya's head popped out from the attic stairs and glanced at them.
"Miss Alaya, you..."
"No, no," Alaya covered her mouth and chuckled, "I'm just checking if I forgot anything."
squeak-
The attic staircase was covered, and Alaya completely left the attic stairs, and the surroundings became quiet again.
"call……"
Eve took a few deep breaths, as if she had finally mentally prepared herself.
"I...I'm starting..."
"Why are you looking at me like that..." Eve was about to pour the healing potion into her mouth when she noticed that Xinlai was staring intently at her.
"Cough cough..." Xin Lai remained silent, only turning her head slightly to shift her gaze to the other side.
Eve paused for a moment, then, as if drinking poison, she put the healing potion into her mouth.
Her little head was tilted slightly up, as if she was allowing the enzymes in her mouth to fully activate the medicine.
Then she looked at Xinlai, cupped his face in her hands, knelt in front of him, and slowly pressed her cherry-red lips to his.
Her lips were soft and sweet, trembling slightly.
Then, the warm liquid slowly flowed from Eve's mouth into Xinlai's, carrying an indescribable taste:
Sweet, mild, and warm.
Xinlai quietly gazed at little Eve, who was so close to her.
Perhaps unwilling to see his face, she kept her eyes tightly closed, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, glistening with tears, like pear blossoms in the rain.
Her delicate, fair skin was flushed with a light blush. Her warm breaths, ruffled from the kiss, brushed against his face, tickling him slightly, yet carrying a hint of allure and ambiguity.
Eve's lips moved slightly, trying to push the medicine into Xinlai's mouth... but to Xinlai, it was clearly a constant demand for a kiss.
He dared not move, afraid that if he moved, Eve on his body would immediately spring away, just like when he was given a hickey last time…
Glug, glug...
After sensing Xinlai swallow, Eve suddenly opened her eyes and quickly pushed him away.
A shimmering silver thread hung between the two of them. Eve was still breathing slightly, and the little watermelon rose and fell gently with her breath.
She blushed and turned her head away, hurriedly wiping the corner of her mouth. Her eyes were red and swollen, and an expression of utter despair appeared on her face.
"Is this okay now...?"
She watched as Xinlai's left arm visibly improved and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, Xin Lai gently shook her head: "But why can't I still feel my left hand..."
"?!"
Eve panicked, picked up the medicine bottle and waved it in the moonlight streaming through the window. "This...this is impossible! The purity is clearly better than what the family uses privately..."
She looked at Xinlai's left arm with some disbelief.
After she and Alaya cleaned and roughly bandaged it, the appearance wasn't so scary, but blood was still seeping out.
This means the internal injuries have not been fully healed...
"What, what should we do..." Eve was completely at a loss.
"I'll go get Miss Alaya, I..."
Just as she was about to get up, she felt Xinlai gently pull her hand.
It wasn't even a proper pull; it was just a light hook between fingertips, without any real force.
Eve stopped in her tracks. She actually wanted to leave the attic, find Alaya to handle the situation, and then stand aside and watch coldly.
But under the moonlight, the face that usually wore a faint smile, looked somewhat resolute and handsome, and always teased and joked with her, was now haggard and pale.
The blue and gold pupils had lost their luster, leaving only a faint "pleading" look:
Like a little golden retriever that's been soaked by the rain, appearing before you with innocent eyes, hoping you'll take it in...
Eve's heart skipped a beat.
She found herself unable to erase this scoundrel from her mind, and she couldn't bear to see him like this...
"well……"
In the end, I softened.
Out of consideration for Sinley's past saving her life, Eve turned back to him and knelt down again.
She reached out her delicate white hand and touched Xinlai's forehead, pressing the back of her hand against it to check her temperature.
The absence of fever indicates that the wound is not infected.
The wound hasn't healed yet, which means the treatment medicine isn't enough.
"Really..."
Eve bit her lower lip lightly, no longer hesitating.
She straddled Xinlai and gently sat on her lap, but not completely down. The skin of her thighs intentionally or unintentionally rubbed against Xinlai's pants, carrying a hint of ambiguity.
"You..." Xinlai was speechless for a moment, not expecting Eve to be so bold.
"Don't move."
Eve slapped Xinlai's hand away in disgust, frowned slightly, and leaned down.
With one hand resting on Xinlai's left hip, he glanced at her and unusually commanded, "Close your eyes."
"oh."
Seeing that Xinlai obediently closed her eyes, Eve used her other hand to pour the remaining healing potion into her mouth, and then casually tossed the empty bottle aside.
Her free hand rested on Xin Lai's right ear, her amethyst-like eyes gazing at him for a moment, as if scrutinizing whether he was truly weak, or perhaps simply admiring him quietly...
"Hmm."
Without warning, Sin Lai's pupils contracted slightly.
Her warm, soft lips pressed against mine again, this time with more force and a more erratic breath.
Purple bangs and strands of hair draped over Xin Lai's body and neck. She leaned slightly forward, revealing a breathtaking view beneath her neckline, both tight and full.
"Well……"
Xinlai felt her head being forced to tilt back.
Eve kept feeding him the medicine, then released her hand from his right ear, instinctively curling her little finger to tuck her hair behind her ear, revealing her fair neck and profile.
She then opened her tiger's mouth and gently supported his chin.
"Glug, glug..."
Xinlai realized that during the kiss with Eve, his soul seemed to undergo an irreversible fusion with Eve's soul.
The effects of this fusion are unclear... but the soul contract has inexplicably loosened.
What's going on...?
……
I don't know how long it's been.
"Ha ha……"
The silver thread stretched out again, still connected even after being broken.
Perhaps because of the prolonged oral administration, Eve felt a slight numbness at the base of her tongue, so she slightly stuck out the tip of her tongue, her face flushed, and sat up straight.
"Cough, cough..."
Xinlai tilted her head slightly, as if she was still immersed in the taste of the medicine she had just taken and couldn't come back to her senses.
Eve's two fair legs parted in front of him, inadvertently revealing a hint of beauty.
However, the tenderness in her eyes vanished after she wiped her red lips with the back of her hand, replaced by an indescribable helplessness.
She stood up, patted her skirt, and breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Xinlai's left arm fully recovered.
"Are you feeling better?"
"Well, maybe..."
Xinlai quickly came to her senses.
After swallowing those few mouthfuls of medicine catalyzed by salivary amylase, my mouth felt sweet with a hint of bitterness.
He turned to look at the wound, and the skin, flesh, and bones were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving only a shallow mark that was barely noticeable unless you looked closely.
More importantly, the pain has subsided, leaving only a slight itch that is difficult to scratch but intensely itchy.
After pausing for a while, Xinlai rotated her left shoulder, which in turn moved her left arm. She also twisted her neck, making a few soft cracking sounds, and felt much more refreshed.
"Thanks."
He braced himself on the ground with his right hand and stood up.
Eve's face was still flushed, and she turned her head away from him, whether out of shyness or embarrassment, it was hard to tell...
"I... I was just doing what a personal maid should do. You're welcome."
She pouted, her tone slightly reproachful.
Xinlai nodded, reached out and gently placed her hand on her head, rubbing it.
"you!"
"Thanks."
Xin Lai spoke gently, releasing her hand from rubbing her hair. "I never expected that this usually aloof and shy fallen noble lady would have such a gentle side."
