Chapter 1836: Chapter 1870: Curing Lin Chuqing’s Eyes
"My beloved, can you loosen your grip a bit now?" Lin Zifeng moved his arm. Being pressed against by her delicate body for so long made his whole right arm almost numb. After several hours of flight, they had arrived in Zhonghai.
Shao Huo was in charge of picking them up at the airport.
"Ah!" Nangong Bing, awakened by the shake, blinked her charming eyes and quickly came to her senses.
Opening her eyes, they had already reached the edge of a dock in the suburbs of Zhonghai. The bright lights around made it appear like daylight!
She knew that people from the Heavenly Gate were probably already here to greet them.
"Let’s get off. You’ve been holding onto my arm and sleeping for a long time." Lin Zifeng shrugged with a smile.
Nangong Bing said nothing, quickly let go of his hand, and followed him down the cabin.
Approaching them, Shao Huo first bowed slightly to Nangong Bing, calling out, "Sister-in-law."
Finally, his gaze fell on Lin Zifeng, and he bowed, calling him Brother Lin.
"Good lad, you suffered such severe injuries yet you’re still energetic. Seems like you’re in good shape." Lin Zifeng stepped forward and gave him a friendly punch in the chest.
After exchanging some words with Shao Huo, Lin Zifeng let Shao Huo escort Nangong Bing away from the suburban dock. He then returned alone to a villa where he had lived before...
The next morning, Lin Zifeng did not bring Nangong Bing along because she was pregnant and it was inconvenient for her to travel. So he headed to Chuqing’s bookstore alone in the early morning.
In the morning, as usual, Lin Chuqing opened the door, arranged the bookstore, and cleaned everything inside. Hua Yudie was responsible for buying groceries and cooking, with the two having clear divisions of labor and wasting no time.
Lin Zifeng stood quietly at the bookstore’s entrance, watching Lin Chuqing tidying up inside without speaking.
"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"
Yet—Lin Zifeng did not speak, and the little girl surprisingly noticed his presence! This took Lin Zifeng slightly by surprise.
"What if I’m here to help you?" Lin Zifeng said with a smile.
Boom!
While wiping the window, her petite body stiffened, and she shook slightly, her mind seemingly exploding.
"Brother, Brother!"
Lin Chuqing’s eyes suddenly lit up, and after putting down the rag, she frantically ran toward Lin Zifeng. If it weren’t for Lin Zifeng catching her swiftly, he’d fear she might accidentally hurt herself.
"Silly girl, it’s not as if money fell from the sky, is there a need to be this happy?" Lin Zifeng said in an exasperated manner, holding her while trying to pull away.
But this little girl stubbornly held onto his waist, unwilling to let go.
"Alright, alright. You’ve seen me, is there a need to hug so tightly?" Lin Zifeng gently patted her back, feeling her tears dampen his arm.
If she continued to cry like this, it wouldn’t be long before his entire arm was soaked with her tears.
"Brother! You’ve not come to see Chuqing for so long. Chuqing missed you so much. I thought you’d never come to see Chuqing again."
Chuqing said, wiping at her reddened eyes, still crying.
During this time, she learned about Lin Zifeng’s identity and the Heavenly Gate he established. She also heard all the rumors about Lin Zifeng. People said Lin Zifeng had died.
This frightened the little girl to the point she couldn’t sleep through many nights. Coupled with Hua Yudie always scaring her, it only made her more anxious and unable to stop missing him.
"Silly girl, am I not standing right here in front of you, well and good? What’s there to cry about? Besides, with such a good sister, how could I possibly not visit you, or not want you anymore?"
Lin Zifeng laughed heartily, caressing her smooth face, feeling a trace of guilt. Having acknowledged her as a sister, yet often not by her side.
"Brother, I already know your identity. You don’t need to hide it from Chuqing anymore." At this moment, Lin Chuqing slowly lifted her head. Her moist, snow-white eyes carried a hint of tenderness as they looked at Lin Zifeng, though she could see nothing.
"Oh! Then what do you know about my identity?" Lin Zifeng raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at her face with interest. However, his eyes gradually turned blood-red, slowly probing into the little girl’s constitution.
He noticed the black column of illness over her head was a few degrees larger than before!
Boom!
Lin Zifeng’s noble body trembled, could it be that during this time, the little girl’s condition had worsened considerably?
What was going on? Didn’t I control her condition before? Why is it worsening again?
Lin Zifeng pondered in his heart, and then an invisible energy surged between his hands, channeling into her body. Gradually, the thick Primordial Energy, like a vast ocean, flowed into Chuqing’s delicate body.
A refreshing sensation emerged, and Lin Chuqing could also feel the change in her body.
She remained still, knowing Lin Zifeng was treating her illness.
"Brother..."
"Don’t speak, close your eyes, and try to recall the most beautiful memories of your life." Lin Zifeng said sternly, his expression serious.
The Magic Bracelet crazily channeled Primordial Energy, rapidly filling the void within her.
Gradually, that pure Primordial Energy flowed throughout her limbs and bones, ending up permeating every inch of her skin and bones. In the end, the little girl looked up, her eyes moving, feeling both uncomfortable and comfortable—indescribable. It was like experiencing a woman’s most primal sensation.
Lin Zifeng carried her inside the bookstore, which was vacant at the moment.
Hua Yudie had gone out, leaving just the two of them.
After carrying her to a room inside, as per Lin Zifeng’s request, Chuqing remained motionless, gently placed on the bed.
"Brother, can my eyes really be cured?"
Lying there without moving, Chuqing suddenly asked.
"Yes. I am one hundred percent sure I can cure you. But, once you are healed, you must promise me one thing." Lin Zifeng replied calmly.
"Alright! As long as it’s something Brother asks, I will surely accomplish it."
The little girl nodded without continuing further. Though upon thinking, she felt somewhat hesitant. Maybe life won’t be as beautiful as before once her eyes are healed.
Sometimes, the life you are used to, the way you live it... When everything changes, when your eyes actually get better... Perhaps everything might not be as you imagined. Perhaps the life she’s living now is what she genuinely seeks.
In an instant, the little girl thought of many things, unsure whether to let her brother cure her eye ailment.
Before long, under the intense surge of Primordial Energy from Lin Zifeng, all her sickness was entirely expelled.
"Brother, can I open my eyes and see you?"
This was what she looked forward to the most.
"Don’t open them yet, if you do now, the bright light will harm your eyes." Lin Zifeng covered her eyes, preventing her from opening them.
