âDonât have such dirty thoughts. I wonât do anything to you,â Song Qingshu said calmly. âIf it werenât for Di Yun, I wouldnât be going to such lengths.â
âLiving with me is absolutely out of the question!â Qi Fang shook her head vigorously, refusing decisively.
âI know what youâre worried about,â Song Qingshu said. âYou can rest assured, no one will know I was in your room, and I will leave quietly afterwards. It wonât damage your reputation.â
Seeing that Qi Fang was about to say something, Song Qingshu interrupted, âEven if you donât consider your own safety, you should think about Di Yun. Heâs been searching for you all these years. Even if you donât care about Di Yun, you should think about your newborn daughter. Do you want her to lose her mother at such a young age?â
âKong Xin KaiâŠâ Qi Fang murmured to herself. Thinking of her daughterâs adorable appearance, her heart softened. âOkay⊠alright, but you have to promise me you wonât be rude to me. Otherwise, I wonât care about your friendship with my senior brother and will call people in to arrest you.â [G: Sheâs calling her âWater Spinachâ (ç©șćżè kĆng xÄ«n cĂ i)]
âDonât worry, Iâm a man of principle. I donât take advantage of my friendâs wife,â Song Qingshu replied seriously.
âMy senior brother and I arenâtâŠitâs not what you think.â Although Qi Fang still harbored feelings for Di Yun, she was also aware that she was a member of the Wan family and dared not think anything further. Noticing Song Qingshuâs teasing gaze, she blushed. âThenâŠalright then, but you must keep your distance from me these days. UmâŠmove the screen over there. We usually keep to ourselves with a screen between us, like water and water.â
âOkay.â Song Qingshu knew it was awkward for a married woman to be in a room with a strange man. He went over to move the screen to the corner, but feeling the steam from the bathtub, he paused. âMadam, are you planning to bathe and change?â
âNo need.â Qi Fang shook her head, secretly annoyed. How could she bathe with a man in the room? âAlright then, Iâll begin expelling the poison with my internal energy. Madam, please feel free to do as you please.â Song Qingshu had vaguely sensed something amiss in the prison cell, but Sixiâs arrival interrupted him. Now that things were temporarily calm, he was eager to continue expelling the poison, as his current physical condition left him uncertain.
Seeing Song Qingshu walk behind the screen, Qi Fang finally breathed a slight sigh of relief. As she relaxed, she suddenly felt a chill on her chest. Looking down, she discovered two damp patches on her chest.
Her face flushed instantly. It turned out that when Song Qingshu had tackled her, her struggles had inevitably led to physical contact, and the pressure on her brea$ts had squeezed out some milk, soaking her clothes. She hadnât noticed it before, but now that she relaxed, she realized.
âHow embarrassing! I wonder if he saw me.â Qi Fangâs face was burning red, and she glanced guiltily at the screen. Seeing no movement, she felt slightly relieved.
âItâs so swollenâŠâ
Qi Fang bit her lip, a troubled expression on her face. She calculated that it was almost time for her daily milk expression routine, but now there was a strange man in the room!
âMaybe I should just skip it todayâŠâ
The thought had barely crossed her mind when Qi Fang instinctively shook her head. Having just given birth, although she was in pain, her lack of experience and shyness prevented her from expressing milk. Soon after, she developed a fever, and her brea$ts became swollen and hard. That illness almost cost her her life.
Later, after receiving treatment from a doctor and guidance from experienced nannies in the household, she learned that she needed to express milk several times a day to maintain her health.
She still vividly remembered the discomfort of her illness and desperately didnât want to experience it again.
The shyness in her heart ultimately couldnât overcome the reality of her body. Qi Fang glanced at the screen again, thinking,
âHeâs currently circulating his internal energy to expel the poison; he shouldnât⊠he shouldnât notice whatâs happening here.â
She pursed her lips, finally making up her mind. She found a wooden bowl, placed it on her lap, and sat on the edge of the bed with her back to the screen, quietly unbuttoning her bodice.
Her heart pounded wildly. She glanced back again to confirm, then carefully began to squeeze.
Perhaps thinking of the strange man not far behind her, Qi Fangâs hands trembled slightly, making her usually practiced movements awkward. Her delicate body beneath the thin clothing trembled occasionally.
Because of her panic, Qi Fang finished in only half the usual time. Looking at the bowl full of milk, her face flushed. She hurriedly adjusted her bodice and prepared to quietly pour it out.
âMadam, I have a favor to ask.â Just then, Song Qingshuâs voice suddenly rang out from not far behind, startling Qi Fang so much that she almost dropped the wooden bowl in her hand.
âYouâŠwhen did you get there?â Turning around to look at Song Qingshu, Qi Fangâs heart trembled, and the color drained from her face, turning deathly pale.
âMadam, please rest assured, I just came out and didnât see anything I shouldnât have,â Song Qingshu replied.
The more the other person spoke, the more suspicious Qi Fang felt, her heart pounding with fear:
âOh no, he saw everythingâŠâ
Qi Fang forced herself to calm down, but her voice still trembled: âYouâŠyou called me because you need something?â
âUhâŠâ Song Qingshu also looked embarrassed, saying somewhat awkwardly, âWellâŠwellâŠMadam is going to throw it away anyway, why donât you give it to me?â
âGive it to you?â Qi Fang didnât react immediately, but noticing the other personâs gaze frequently glancing at the wooden bowl in her hand, she realized what was happening, her whole body flushed with shame and anger, âYouâŠyouâŠâ
Seeing the young womanâs face turn bright red with anger, Song Qingshu quickly explained, âMadam, please donât misunderstandâŠI didnât mean any disrespect; I simply wanted to find a cure.â
âCureâŠdetoxify?â Qi Fang was taken aback, but quickly became even more ashamed and angry. âWhat kind of poison can this stuff cure!â
âI have a close friendship with the Poison King, Master Wu Chen, despite our age difference. Years ago, I overheard him mention that human m!lk is a very miraculous substance that can cure many rare poisons,â Song Qingshu quickly explained. âThis time, I was poisoned by your husbandâs Heavenly Devil Flower. I tried many methods but couldnât find a cure. Now, I have no choice but to resort to this. If thereâs anything offensive, I hope you wonât take offense.â
He wasnât lying. Back at Medicine King Manor, the Poison King had indeed mentioned that human m!lk could cure many types of poisoning symptoms. In his previous life, he had also heard that milk could neutralize heavy metal poisoning.
