Chapter 215: Chapter 214: Comforting the Beautiful Lady
It was late at night when Su Qingxue suddenly heard a knock on her door. Thinking it was one of the nannies she had hired, she asked, "What is it?"
However, there was no response from outside. Startled, Su Qingxue tiptoed to the bedroom door, clutching the baseball bat she had prepared. The mont the door swung open, she swung with all her might.
BANG!
The bat snapped in two. When Su Qingxue opened her eyes, she saw it was Ye Fan.
Ye Fan looked at her with a miserable expression, and Su Qingxue was dumbfounded.
"Ye Fan!" she cried, flinging herself at him and wrapping her arms around his shoulders. "Ye Fan, is your mory back? Do you have any idea how worried I’ve been about you? I was so afraid you’d leave and never co back. I thought I wouldn’t be able to live without you. I believed I was strong, that I was independent, but ever since you left, I’ve realized how much I truly rely on you!"
She wept her heart out, her sobs uncontrollable.
"That doesn’t give you the right to hit
with a bat!" Ye Fan complained miserably.
"Hmph! It’s your own fault for not making a sound! I thought you were a burglar!" Su Qingxue retorted indignantly.
Ye Fan felt even more miserable. His intended surprise had turned into a fright.
「This night was destined to be a sleepless one.」
Snuggled happily in Ye Fan’s arms, Su Qingxue relished the joy of regaining what she had lost. Perhaps her feelings for him had deepened even more.
With his mory restored, Ye Fan’s roguish nature resurfaced. His hands began to wander, daringly exploring Su Qingxue. Just as his hand reached her most sensitive place, her legs suddenly clenched, knocking it away.
Ye Fan took this as a good sign; her resistance wasn’t as fierce this ti. This was a positive on for him, and he grew even bolder, his hands roaming freely. At first, Su Qingxue remained calm, but his caresses soon brought her to the brink of surrender. For Ye Fan, there was no greater happiness.
Just then, Ye Fan touched her skin and was startled to find it icy cold.
"Honey, why is your skin so cold?" he asked hastily.
"I... I don’t know!" Su Qingxue trembled as she spoke.
Without a doubt, her old ailnt had flared up again.
Ye Fan quickly channeled True Qi into her body. The infusion provided so relief, but she required a trendous amount of it. Even soone as powerful as Ye Fan was drenched in sweat by the ti he was done.
Su Qingxue looked weak, her hair disheveled and her face deathly pale. Despite her fragile state, she possessed a desolate sort of beauty. Ye Fan tenderly combed her ssy hair as she lay heavily in his arms, fast asleep. He, however, stayed awake, trying to figure out how to cure her of this mysterious illness.
In her sleep, Su Qingxue began to tremble. "You... don’t co any closer!" she muttered. "I will not rge with you!"
Suddenly, she jerked awake, her face slick with cold sweat.
Ye Fan quickly asked, "Honey, what’s wrong?"
"Honey, she appeared again!" Su Qingxue said, her voice trembling.
"Who is she?"
"I don’t know who she is. I only know she looks exactly like , and she wants to take over my body. Honey, it’s getting harder and harder to resist her," she said, starting to cry.
"Don’t be afraid," Ye Fan soothed. "I’ll find a way to cure you and make you well again."
The next day, Su Qingxue was back to normal, but Ye Fan remained baffled. Who is this woman calling to her? Could there be another soul inside her body? He had seen people with two souls sharing one body before, but Su Qingxue’s situation felt different. Concern weighed heavily on his heart.
But in this vast world, who could possibly save her? After much thought, he figured he could try seeking help from the Yan Clan. However, he had never heard of any Divine Doctor among them.
It was truly a perplexing problem. Sotis, even he, the King of Heaven, felt a deep sense of helplessness, just as he did now with Su Qingxue’s condition.
Ye Fan treated Su Qingxue’s condition again. His dical skills were decent, but they were nowhere near enough to cure her. He could, however, at least suppress her condition for a while.
Over the next few days, Ye Fan helped regulate Su Qingxue’s body daily. Sure enough, her health improved, and the strange illness did not flare up again.
Seeing this, Ye Fan finally felt a sense of relief.
「Five days later.」
Ye Fan arrived in Shangjing. This was his third visit to the city.
He was in a rather foul mood. He was worried about Su Qingxue’s condition, and the thought that the assassin from Fla Valley might strike again still lingered. He had already instructed Heavenly King Hall to be on high alert and had even tasked Black Fog and others with secretly protecting the won in his life.
Just as Ye Fan stepped out of Shangjing Airport, a car pulled up. The driver was none other than Fang Nan.
Fang Nan had recently been promoted and frequently traveled between Jiangning and Shangjing. As it happened, she was in the capital today, so she was the one who ca to pick him up.
"Well, look who’s on ti," Ye Fan teased.
"Hmph! You think I’m like you? Sneaking around and disappearing whenever you feel like it!" Fang Nan shot back angrily.
Ye Fan felt helpless. Even though I’ve retired, wherever there are people, there’s conflict. I feel even busier now than during my days on the African battlefield. It’s no wonder I have to disappear now and then.
Ye Fan chuckled. "I’ll try not to disappear so much from now on!"
"Hmph! I don’t believe a word you say!" Fang Nan replied, unappeased.
Helpless, Ye Fan awkwardly got into the car. "So, where are we heading now?" he asked.
He had arranged to et Zhan Xiong tomorrow, so his schedule for today seed to be free.
"We’re going to see my parents, of course," Fang Nan said. "I’m from Shangjing, after all, and they happen to be ho. They’ve been nagging
to bring you to et them for a long ti!
"But you keep pulling your disappearing act, which makes things really awkward for . This ti, you *have* to co ho with
and et them!" It was an ultimatum.
Ye Fan said awkwardly, "But I haven’t even brought a gift!"
It was indeed awkward. Custom dictated that one bring a valuable gift when eting their partner’s parents, but he’d prepared nothing. He felt completely railroaded.
Fang Nan said, "You don’t need to prepare anything. I knew you’d be this thoughtless. Actually, your mother already paid my parents a visit."
"My mother?" Ye Fan asked curiously.
Fang Nan nodded.
Ye Fan was stunned. He hadn’t expected his formidable mother to have already visited the Fang family on his behalf.
