Chapter 1902 - 1897: You’re Too Nervous
Cao Lingbing laughed softly as she looked outside and said, "Yes, Xiaobei, Yao Ling has already woken up, and she’s ready. You can come over directly!"
"You..."
Yao Ling, who hadn’t wrapped herself completely, heard this welcoming remark and quickly glanced at her.
Promptly, she hurriedly continued wrapping herself.
However, no matter how she wrapped, she couldn’t make it very secure because it was just a thin layer...
As the footsteps grew closer, Yao Ling glanced around quickly!
In a flash, she quickly went to the bed...
After getting there, she swiftly pulled the quilt over her body.
Just as she finished covering herself, Hu Xiaobei appeared before her.
...
"It’s a bit of a pity, if Xiaobei had come in a little earlier, it would’ve been better."
Seeing Hu Xiaobei appear somewhat late, Cao Lingbing shook her head gently...
She truly felt a sense of regret...
Because Hu Xiaobei really missed some splendid scenery.
Hu Xiaobei was unaware of her current thoughts; all his attention was on Yao Ling.
When he saw her expression was no longer dim, Hu Xiaobei knew she had considerably improved.
Guaiguai and Qiaoqiao, who entered with Hu Xiaobei, also smiled, confirming that she was indeed much better.
...
"Who are they!"
Yao Ling looked at Guaiguai and Qiaoqiao with some suspicion.
She sensed a familiar aura from them but didn’t know exactly what...
She could confirm one thing: she had never seen them before.
Hu Xiaobei, noticing the confusion in Yao Ling’s eyes, smiled lightly and began introducing them to her.
After listening to Hu Xiaobei’s introduction, she finally understood why they felt familiar.
Previously, she didn’t think she’d ever have the chance to meet beings of her kind in her lifetime.
Now, having met them, she couldn’t quite find the words to express her happiness.
Seeing Yao Ling’s excitement, Guaiguai and Qiaoqiao swiftly approached her.
"Hi, I’m Guaiguai!"
"I’m Qiaoqiao!"
Hearing their introductions, Yao Ling took a deep breath and quickly responded, "I’m Yao Ling, you can call me Ling’er!"
"Okay!"
With smiles, they leaned in a bit closer...
...
Seeing them readily hitting it off, a hint of a smile played at the corner of Hu Xiaobei’s lips.
Soon, Hu Xiaobei walked over to Cao Lingbing’s side, "When did Yao Ling wake up?"
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei’s caring inquiry, Cao Lingbing smiled gently, "Xiaobei, Yao Ling woke up not long ago. I asked her before; she feels much better now. So, the treatment really has worked."
"Yes, it definitely worked. But honestly, there’s still a ways to go before full recovery. You too—I’ll continue treating you later."
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei refer back to her, she stole a glance at the wooden tub not far away and whispered softly, "Xiaobei, do I... still need to use the wooden tub treatment?"
"Yes!"
"Oh! I understand!"
Having undergone the treatment once before, Cao Lingbing wasn’t as resistant to this method. So now, there’s no continued hesitation or awkwardness...
Hearing her straightforward acceptance, Hu Xiaobei nodded lightly.
Soon, Hu Xiaobei walked over to Yao Ling.
Smiling gently, Hu Xiaobei sat down in front of Yao Ling.
Once seated, Hu Xiaobei looked at Yao Ling and said softly, "Yao Ling, we’ll talk more later. Now, let me check your pulse to see how well your recovery is progressing."
"Alright!"
Agreeing, she quickly stretched out her hand...
With her movement, the blanket on her body slipped down directly...
This let Hu Xiaobei see the veil-like blanket draped over her.
"This..."
Hu Xiaobei was taken aback...
Because it was really so thin...
"What’s the matter?"
Sensing Hu Xiaobei’s astonishment, Yao Ling lowered her head in confusion.
In the next instant, she quickly exclaimed...
Afterward, she began covering herself frantically...
Witnessing this scene, Hu Xiaobei coughed quickly.
Behind him, a hint of a smile played on Cao Lingbing’s lips.
"Thought Xiaobei wouldn’t get the chance to feast his eyes! Seems his luck is still pretty good now!"
...
After a while, she calmed down again...
Looking at Hu Xiaobei with extreme bashfulness, she stretched out her hand once more.
Hu Xiaobei smiled, gently holding her hand, and began checking her pulse seriously.
Seeing Hu Xiaobei start a serious task, the expressions of Cao Lingbing and the others became serious again.
They all knew Yao Ling’s condition had improved, but they were not sure of the specifics, so they were very keen to find out.
"Don’t be nervous!"
Feeling Yao Ling’s rapidly beating heart, Hu Xiaobei reminded her softly.
"Okay!"
Yao Ling agreed.
Yet she still couldn’t control it...
At this moment, her nervousness wasn’t because Hu Xiaobei was checking her pulse but because she was almost seen fully by Hu Xiaobei...
Even though she knew her relationship with Hu Xiaobei was different, she still felt extremely shy in front of so many people...
...
"Looks like she can’t calm down by herself in the short term!"
Murmuring to himself, Hu Xiaobei injected a bit of Nine Wood True Qi into her body...
With the infusion of Nine Wood True Qi, her heartbeat gradually stabilized.
Knowing she was almost calm, Hu Xiaobei started seriously checking her pulse...
"Although she hasn’t fully recovered, there has been a good start, and more importantly, her body’s functioning is rapidly restoring!"
A minute later, Hu Xiaobei had a more detailed understanding of her internal condition.
This made Hu Xiaobei breathe a long sigh of relief...
"Xiaobei, how is my recovery going?"
Unable to discern anything from Hu Xiaobei’s expression, Yao Ling had to speak up herself.
Hearing Yao Ling’s inquiry, Cao Lingbing and others quickly perked up their ears...
Hu Xiaobei scanned everyone with a glance and laughed softly, "There’s no need for you to be nervous. Ling’er’s body is without significant issues now. A few more treatments, and she’ll be completely recovered."
"Really?"
Seeing Yao Ling’s skepticism, Hu Xiaobei nodded vigorously, "Of course, even truer than diamonds!"
"That’s great, that’s great, that’s great!"
Yao Ling laughed excitedly...
Feeling Yao Ling’s excitement, Cao Lingbing and the others were exceedingly happy...
Knowing they had many topics to cover, Hu Xiaobei wisely stood up, "Alright, you can continue chatting now, but don’t overdo it, as she mainly needs rest!"
"Okay!"
Upon hearing their enthusiastic responses, Hu Xiaobei stood up and left.
Behind Hu Xiaobei, the group was amicably chatting about various topics...
