Chapter 98: Things are Getting Worse

green bean cakes.""Yes." Kang'er smiled in response and then hurried away to the kitchen.When Shuangshuang heard An Xuetang say she liked mung bean cakes, she was taken aback. After Kang'er left, she...By the faint light, An Xuetang took the medicine box and then regardless of anything else, she tore off Mo Yunjing's clothes and began to give him acupuncture.

He felt the acupoints on his body slowly being pierced by her silver needles, but this time, the acupuncture treatment seemed to have little effect. An Xue Tang then fed him a few pills.

There was backup clean water in the house. She almost didn't hesitate before pouring a mouthful for herself, then feeding him some.

She had just finished feeding him water, and Mo Yun Jing slowly opened his eyes. He was already drenched in sweat.

Seeing him open his eyes, An Xuetang gently spoke with tenderness, "Ah Jing, are you feeling better"

Mo Yunjing managed to force a smile and comforted, "Don't worry, Tangtang, I'm fine."

An Xue Tang pursed her lips, he was like this, what else could she do!

“I’ll give you a few more acupuncture points. This time, your symptoms will be much worse than before. Just bear with it, okay”

Mo Yunjing curled his lips, "Good."

An Xuetang lowered her head and continued to fiddle with her silver needles, searching for acupuncture points on Mo Yunjing's body, slowly inserting them.

Under the dimly lit lamp, her serious expression deeply captivated Mo Yunjing. He finally understood why he felt oppressed when she spoke those words. It turned out… he had long treated her as his wife, the woman he wanted to spend his life with.

Her big, round eyes were dark and bright. Her hands kept searching for his acupoints, occasionally probing his meridians, and she would often ask him questions aloud:

"Ah Jing, do you feel any discomfort anywhere"

Mo Yunjing pursed his lips and shook his head slightly, "It's the same as before."

Although he said so, An Xuetang knew he was only enduring it, he must have been in terrible pain.

Because his body was so tense, she could tell just by touching him.

Gradually, the heat on Mo Yunjing's body began to dissipate. But before the two could breathe a sigh of relief, his eyebrows started to frost over, and his whole body became icy cold.

An Xuetang pursed her lips and retracted the silver needles one by one, "A-Jing, it seems that acupuncture treatment hasn't been effective for you."

As she spoke, her voice was filled with utter despondency, as if blaming herself for being useless. A physician who couldn't alleviate Mo Yunjing's pain felt a deep sense of guilt.

Mo Yunjing reached out and took her hand, "Tangtang don't worry, I can bear it."

An Xuetang looked at him, his eyebrows and scalp began to freeze at this time, his face was abnormally pale, there was a kind of pitiful beauty.

She sighed, "Ah Jing, am I not very useless"

"No, Tangtang is very powerful in my heart."

An Xuetang fell silent for a while, she didn't know what she was thinking about. Suddenly, she put the medicine box down on the bed and then took off her clothes one by one.

Mo Yunjing narrowed his eyes slightly, "Tangtang, what are you up to"

"Here's a warm hug for you."

"Mò Yún Jǐng suddenly chuckled, "Táng Táng don't fool around."

"I didn't cause a fuss." As she spoke, she shed her clothes, not giving Mo Yun Jing any chance to refuse. She rubbed against him, proactively hugging his waist.

The closeness of their bodies sent a shiver through Mo Yun Jing, his entire body tensed. The next second, he reached out and pulled her close, holding her tightly in his arms.

Compared to Mo Yunjing's inner shock, An Xuetang wasn't doing much better either. The two bodies were pressed tightly together, feeling the solidity and tension in his arms, and the icy breath he exhaled. She felt a tremor deep within her bones.

He maintained that posture for an hour, shivering from the cold throughout, yet not uttering a single complaint.

Such a pitiful sight made An Xuetang feel heartbroken. Only when she knew his body temperature was slowly returning to normal did she let out a sigh of relief.

After being alternately chilled and warmed, Mo Yunjing quickly fell asleep.

An Xue Tang got up after he fell asleep and put on his clothes. Then she went to boil water to wipe his body.

And Xue Tang's movements in the kitchen still woke up Jiang Qingyang.

"What are you boiling water for in the middle of the night"

An Xuetang narrowed her eyes and suddenly said, "You've also had a concubine before, haven't you Don't you understand"

"!!!"

It took two seconds for her to react, and by the time Jiang Qingyang realized what she meant, she was completely stunned.

An Xuetang, this woman is truly... she dares to say anything!

The next day

An Xuetang had just fallen asleep when she got up to cook. After finishing the meal, she went to knock on Jiang Qingyang's door.

"So early What's wrong" Jiang Qingyang rubbed his eyes sleepily, asking in a hoarse voice.

"I'm going out now, I've already made breakfast. When my husband wakes up, you must bring him the food."

"Where are you going" Hearing that she was going out so early, Jiang Qingyang immediately perked up.

"I'll go find my mother first, then go into town to pick up some things." She definitely wouldn't admit that the reason she was trying to create space between them was because she was embarrassed to face Mo Yun Jing.

While she usually teases Mo Yunjing with her words, last night the two of them were truly... honest with each other!!

Although it was meant to warm him up and help with his illness, alleviating his pain at the time, she still blushed when she thought about it afterward.

She's still embarrassed to face him, so she has to hide somewhere before he wakes up. She believes that after a day has passed, they won't think about it anymore.

After leaving her home, An Xuetang went to the An family residence. She still held the medicinal ointment she had prepared for Liu shi in her hand.

To avoid any trouble, she directly scaled the wall and entered. At this time, all the family members were still asleep.

She went straight into Liu's room. Liu woke up with a start and almost screamed, but luckily An Xue Tang spoke in time, "It's me."

"Oh...Ah Tang, why did you come at this time Is something wrong" Liu shi hurriedly sat up.

"Nothing happened, I brought you some ointment." As she spoke, she took out the bottles and jars from the cloth bag.

"Your face can still be saved, as long as you use these medications on time and in the correct way. Within a month, your face will recover."

Lius eyes lit up. "Really... really Will my face be okay"

"Yes." An Xuetang arranged various bottles in front of her and taught her how to use each medicine, explaining the external and internal applications.

Liu was afraid she might miss something, so she listened intently, her heart secretly taking note of everything.

After explaining about the medicine, An Xuetang took out a black medicine bottle separately:

“This contains the antidote for Wang and the others. They should take one pill a month. I'm giving these to you, and from now on, on the 15th of every month, you'll give each of them one pill.”

Liu didn't refuse, and she didn't want Wang and the others to die either. But she didn't hope they would fully recover their health, otherwise her good days would really be over.

After giving her instructions, An Xue Tang stood straight and stared seriously at Liu Shi once again, asking:

"Don't you really want to leave your home If you're willing to come with me, I can support you for the rest of your life and give you a comfortable retirement."s Beijiang Wangfu wanted to investigate, the person behind this letter would be impossible to conceal."Your Highness, this is a letter written by Cheng Ruyi, the eldest daughter of Lord Cheng."It had...
