Chapter 2000: The Suffering Fiancée vs. The Young Lady of a Prestigious Family (Part 35)
Qi Chengxuan once thought that he might spend his whole life struggling in such pain until the day he left this world.
And yet, he met Gu Shengyin.
In Qi Chengxuan’s eyes, this mysterious Miss Chang seemed to have a special kind of magic power about her.
She didn’t have to do anything; he only needed to quietly stay by her side, and he could sense the turmoil within him calming considerably.
And with her carefree attitude, she brewed him a cup of floral tea each day, which successfully subdued the rampant heat toxin within him.
Even that irritable and easily angered mood had been alleviated significantly.
Qi Chengxuan couldn’t help but hold deeper hope of completely ridding himself of the heat toxin.
Gu Shengyin knew from his appearance that her Spiritual Spring Water had already taken effect.
Even though the system had guaranteed it beforehand, she still breathed a sigh of relief.
Today was exactly the tenth cup of tea she brewed for Qi Chengxuan, and from tomorrow, she could add one more drop of Spiritual Spring Water into the tea.
The next day.
When Qi Chengxuan took the teacup from her, his eyes moved: "Today’s floral tea seems a bit different?"
He looked at it; the color of the tea seemed somewhat bluer than usual?
Gu Shengyin responded flatly with an "Mm": "Starting today, the ingredients of the floral tea have changed slightly."
Qi Chengxuan said nothing and raised the teacup, drinking it all in one go.
The taste was as good as ever, and today the tea seemed to carry a hint of clear and refreshing coolness.
From the throat all the way down, it was as if a clear spring had passed through, bringing comfort to the internal organs tormented by heat toxin.
Gu Shengyin suddenly remembered something: "Soon, we will officially begin detoxification; it might be somewhat painful."
Qi Chengxuan smiled dismissively: "Just a bit of pain; I’m not one to shy away from suffering."
He hadn’t spoken long when a sharp pain nearly made him swallow his own tongue!
Seeing his suddenly pale face, Gu Shengyin calmly led him to the adjoining room and had him lie on the soft couch.
"The whole process will probably last for half a shichen; Prince, bear with it."
Qi Chengxuan couldn’t quite hear her words at this point.
He felt as if there was a sharp knife scraping inside him, digging out the toxins hidden within his body little by little.
The prior agonies of toxin flare-up paled greatly in comparison to this moment.
Gu Shengyin looked into his half-closed eyes, guessing that his consciousness was no longer completely clear.
This man was drenched in cold sweat, yet he stubbornly gritted his teeth, refusing to utter a single sound, unwilling to show weakness.
Gu Shengyin’s gaze flickered, and she stepped forward, grabbing his fingers tightly clenching the bed sheet, with the force turning his knuckles green.
Her body’s warmth was much more comforting than the bedding, and Qi Chengxuan’s hands seemed to find a new anchor, instantly gripping her hands tightly.
The intense strength passed to her, causing Gu Shengyin’s face to pale slightly, but she did not resist.
She bit her lip, leaned down gently, and softly kissed his burning yet eerily pale lips.
"It will be better soon..."
Qi Chengxuan might have heard those words, as the grip on Gu Shengyin’s hand seemed to loosen slightly.
Although still firm, it was no longer uncomfortable for her.
