Chapter 22: The heroine is a grinder

Seeing that the crisis was over, Tao Jingyi bent down, trying to pick up the jelly beans on the ground. Her fingers still had blood from being bitten, Duan Feibai stared at her, held her hand, and asked, "What's going on?"

"According to the onlookers just now, it was bitten by a dog." Su Xingchen gritted his back molars angrily. Fortunately, the dog slipped away quickly, otherwise the stew must have been stewed.

Duan Feibai pulled Tao Jingyi into his arms, and said warmly, "The wound needs to be treated as soon as possible. Don't take the candies on the ground, go buy new ones." The latter sentence was for Tao Jingyi.

Tao Jingyi's eyes lit up.

Su Xingchen immediately keenly guessed that sugar is the key to gaining Tao Jingyi's favor, and he said, "I'll buy it."

As he spoke, he quickly ran to the stall and bought ten packs of candies. When he came back, he also bought ten bunches of candied gourds, ten bunches of sugar figurines with different shapes, plus some toys such as windmills, clay figurines, and cloth tigers...

Seeing Su Xingchen who came back carrying big and small bags, Duan Feibai fell silent.

Tao Jingyi was as happy as a little butterfly, circling Su Xingchen constantly. Su Xingchen finally felt the enthusiasm of his elder sister, and his face was full of embarrassment.

Duan Feibai said with a sullen face: "She messed around, and you messed around too, how can you eat so much sugar?"

"Sister, as long as she is happy." Su Xingchen smiled and handed Tao Jingyi a bunch of candied haws.

Tao Jingyi was so happy that he got the candied haws.

Duan Feibai said: "Only one skewer is allowed."

Tao Jingyi thought for a while, and nodded like a good boy: "Okay, I will listen to Daddy."

Su Xingchen: "..."

Duan Feibai said only one skewer was allowed, Tao Jingyi really only ate one skewer, no matter how Su Xingchen tempted her, she just shook her head, expressing that she was an obedient and good boy.

Su Xingchen had no choice but to carry the big and small bags back to the inn angrily.

After returning to the inn, Duan Feibai called clean water to wash Tao Jingyi's wound on his finger. Fortunately, the wound is not big, and it can heal with some medicine.

Su Xingchen booked another room, he put all his things back in the room, and went to find Duan Feibai and Tao Jingyi.

Tao Jingyi sat in front of Duan Feibai, his sleeves rolled up high, exposing a section of snow-white arm. Duan Feibai pinched her fingers and applied medicine for her. Her other hand quietly reached into the water basin, shaking out small water waves, with a cunning look of success on her face.

Duan Feibai glanced at her sideways, with some indulgence and pampering in the corner of his eyes.

This scene was too eye-catching.

Su Xingchen slammed the door angrily, and the huge movement brought them back to their senses. He scanned the room with his eyes, raised his legs and walked towards Tao Jingyi, and picked up a comb as he passed the dressing table.

Tao Jingyi cried on the street earlier, her face was covered with tears, and her hair was messy. After returning, Duan Feibai washed her face with hot water, and put down her hair again, scattered behind her.

At this time, her face was pink and tender, with a clear smile on it. Su Xingchen walked behind her and combed her long hair. After Duan Feibai healed the wound on her finger, Su Xingchen had already tied a beautiful bun for her.

The most popular hairstyle for girls nowadays.

Su Xingchen was dexterous, and the bun he pulled out was very beautiful. Tao Jingyi's hair is black and shiny, and of good quality. With this bun, it really looks like a beautiful face.

Satisfied, Su Xingchen held the bronze mirror in front of Tao Jingyi and asked, "Sister, does it look good?"

Tao Jingyi glanced at it: "It looks good."

Duan Feibai paused for cleaning up the basin.

Tao Jingyi quickly added: "Not as good-looking as Daddy."

What she wanted to say should be "not as good-looking as daddy's arms", but her mind is too low to express it, and expressing this meaning is already the limit.

But Duan Feibai and Su Xingchen both understood.

The corner of Duan Feibai's mouth curved slightly, and he continued to tidy up the basin.

Su Xingchen threw the mirror back with a "snap". He was so angry that his teeth were itching. This feeling was like a little thing raised by himself. Not only did he treat others as his master, but he also bit him back.

He couldn't vent his anger on Tao Jingyi, so he walked out panting heavily.

Duan Feibai took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to him: "There is still a shortage of these medicinal materials. Yu Sangqing sent people to buy all the medicinal materials in the town at a high price. If you need to buy them from other places, it will take five days to go back and forth quickly."

Su Xingchen glanced at it, and curled his lips nonchalantly: "It's easy, I'll go, just go back and forth for a day or two."

He has a set of lightness kung fu called "Thousand-mile Divine Walk", which he learned from an expert senior. Ever since Su Xiyan was wounded by Duan Hongying, hurting his tendons and lungs, he realized the importance of escaping. He has studied hard for several years, so that one day he will come in handy to protect Su Xiyan.

Duan Feibai naturally also knew that he would "walk thousands of miles". He was still worried about these medicinal materials and planned to go to the Flower God Sect. But since Su Xingchen is here, there is no need for him to make this trip.

Su Xingchen left whenever he wanted. With the prescription and sword in his pocket, he went back to the room, took a look at Tao Jingyi, and left in a hurry.

Su Xingchen said it would take a day or two, but it really only took a day or two. Strictly speaking, it only took a day and a half.

When he came back, Duan Feibai had almost prepared the medicine, and only the medicinal materials he brought were left.

Su Xingchen gave the medicinal materials to Duan Feibai, and Duan Feibai immediately took the medicinal materials to make medicine. Before leaving, he handed Tao Jingyi to Su Xingchen, and said, "Remember, don't let her sleep."

Because the poison of "Seven Days Exhaustion" became more and more dangerous in the last two days, if he fell asleep at this time, he might never be able to wake up again.

When Su Xingchen entered the room, Tao Jingyi was yawning. There are all kinds of delicate toys in front of her, but obviously these toys can no longer attract her attention. She is really sleepy, and her upper and lower eyelids are fighting.

She couldn't understand at all why Duan Feibai didn't allow her to sleep.

"Sister, do you still remember me?" Su Xingchen hurried back, and came to Tao Jingyi before he could change his clothes. His hair was messy, he smelled bad, and he had an unshaven beard on his chin.

Tao Jingyi looked at him confusedly.

In the past two days, her intelligence has declined a lot, and sometimes even Duan Feibai can't recognize her. She tilted her head to look at Su Xingchen, her eyes were puzzled.

Seeing her like this, Su Xingchen felt a slight pain in his heart. His elder sister was so proud and noble, when had she ever been so embarrassed. Damn Flower God Cult, **** Duan Feibai, he must make them pay the price!

Su Xingchen's expression changed, sometimes he was distressed, and sometimes he was vicious. Tao Jingyi opened his eyes, watching the boy squatting in front of him, and reached out to touch the fine stubble on his chin.

Hard and tough. She giggled as if she had discovered something amusing.

Seeing her smiling so happily, Su Xingchen let her touch his chin.

After touching it for a while, Tao Jingyi lost interest. She withdrew her hand and yawned long. When she closed her eyes, she was about to fall asleep.

"Sister, I can't sleep." Su Xingchen held her hand and said eagerly.

Tao Jingyi opened his eyes and glanced at him, but his eyes were a little distracted. After only one glance, she closed her eyes again.

"Sister!" Su Xingchen involuntarily clenched her hands tightly, exerting some force on them.

Tao Jingyi woke up suddenly from the pain. She opened her eyes, pulled her hand back from his palm aggrievedly, and blew on the pinched place: "Pain, pain, pain..."

It seems that she knows nothing except the word "pain".

Seeing this, Su Xingchen immediately held her finger and blew gently, coaxing in a low voice: "It doesn't hurt, it will be gone soon."

The pain stopped, and the drowsiness swept over again. The moment Tao Jingyi closed his eyes again, Su Xingchen repeated his old trick and shook her hand firmly.

This time Tao Jingyi straightened his mouth and cried.

It's good to cry, and if you cry, you won't fall asleep. Su Xingchen comforted himself like this. But he underestimated the extent of Tao Jingyi's drowsiness. She cried and cried, her voice gradually became quieter, and there was a faint tendency to fall asleep again.

Su Xingchen had no choice but to squeeze her hand again.

After repeated cycles like this, Tao Jingyi was in pain and sleepiness, and was tortured to the point of mental breakdown.

Not only her, even Su Xingchen himself was about to collapse.

On the verge of Su Xingchen's collapse, Duan Feibai finally formulated the antidote.

After taking a dose of antidote, Tao Jingyi finally got his wish and fell asleep. Seeing her sleeping soundly on the bed, both Su Xingchen and Duan Feibai breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Xingchen asked worriedly: "Sister will wake up?"

"Yes." Duan Feibai whispered. In the past few days, in order to develop the antidote, he has been sleepless for several nights, and at this moment his face is also full of burnout.
