Ah! She had been sleeping for seven days, so of course her spirit was very good.
But she was weak and soft now, and had no strength at all. How could she have the strength to overpower him?
But she felt it would not be right if she did not press him down and get some action. She could accept any loss, but she could not accept this kind of loss.
So Lin Zaozao felt aroused and emboldened to try lying on Ji Fantian’s body, hugging his neck and getting ready to kiss him.
If she could not press him down, kissing him first would work too. Otherwise, it would not match her style of doing things.
But when Lin Zaozao’s lips were just about to touch Ji Fantian’s, the door was suddenly opened from the outside.
“Doctor Ji, has the young master woken up? I’ve cooked chicken soup several times already.”
When Dashan opened the door, what he saw was Lin Zaozao pressed against Ji Fantian’s body.
When the three pairs of eyes met, Dashan was stunned for a moment. He held his fists towards the two tangled on the bed and said awkwardly,
“Young...young master, I didn’t see anything, please continue, please continue.”
After speaking, Dashan pulled the door closed with great force.
The next second, the previously intact door was torn off violently by Dashan.
Dashan looked at the door in his hand, then looked up at the smiling Lin Zaozao. For a moment, he did not know if he should leave first or fix the door first.
This was quite an awkward situation!
“Hahaha...Dashan, stop messing around first. Put the door aside. Also, I want to drink chicken soup. After sleeping for seven days, I’m starving.”
“Oh! Okay, okay.”
Dashan put the door aside and looked at Lin Zaozao, who was now half embraced in Ji Fantian's arms.
He did not know whether to enter the room or not for a moment.
“Dashan, stop standing there stunned. Come help me up. My legs are weak from sleeping seven days and I can't walk."
“Oh! Okay. Young master, I'll come in right away.”
Hearing Lin Zaozao's order, Dashan walked into the room and lifted Lin Zaozao out of Ji Fantian's arms with one hand.
But when Dashan saw Lin Zaozao's expressionless face after being lifted half up in the air by himself,
he felt that it did not seem very nice to carry someone like this as he walked. Moreover, the person he was holding up was his young master.
After thinking again, amidst Lin Zaozao's soft exclamation, Dashan still put Lin Zaozao on his shoulder, then strode towards the door.
But when Dashan had just reached the door, tragedy struck Lin Zaozao.
When Lin Zaozao’s forehead intimately collided with the door frame, she felt like her head was seeing stars from the collision.
“Dashan, you have to bend down and walk forward when going through doors. When you carry me on your shoulder, can't you still bend down and walk?” My head is going to be smashed flat by the door frame.”
“Young master, I can’t carry you in my arms either. Or should I just carry you like this?”
Seeing Dashan’s guilty expression, Lin Zaozao quickly waved her hand in refusal.
“Forget it. Dashan, just help me walk! Being carried by you like a sack, what face would I have left?”
As soon as Lin Zaozao's feet touched the ground, she was picked up at the waist. Looking up, it was Ji Fantian.
“Fantian darling, why aren’t you lying in bed spacing out?”
Meeting Lin Zaozao’s playful gaze, Ji Fantian was a little embarrassed and slightly turned his head away, carrying Lin Zaozao towards the dining room.
“Fantian darling, you have to eat well later! Look how thin you’ve become. Although a small waist looks good when it’s a bit thin, when I touch it, it’s just a rack of ribs! This feels so bony it even hurts my bones when I pressed against you.”
Ji Fantian felt Lin Zaozao's hand reaching into his clothes and looked up at the Divine Doctor Clan tribesmen sitting outside the dining room, somewhat embarrassed and said,
“Zaozao, my tribesmen are sitting right there. Can you take your hand out?”
“Your tribesmen!”
Lin Zaozao retracted her hand and turned to look. She saw those Divine Doctor tribesmen wearing shabby clothes when she first arrived in Bian City, now sitting neatly in wheelchairs, looking at her respectfully and excitedly.
“Fantian, I can stand on my feet now. Put me down first and just support me slowly walking.”
“Okay!”
As soon as Lin Zaozao's feet touched the ground, those Divine Doctor tribesmen immediately held their fists with both hands and bowed deeply three times to Lin Zaozao.
“Thank you, Princess Mingzhu, for saving our lives. Our Divine Doctor tribe is willing to swear allegiance to you from now on.”
“Hey! Everyone, you are Fantian darling’s tribesmen, and Fantian is my husband, so we are related by marriage.
So we don't need to stand on ceremony. As for swearing allegiance and stuff, we’re all one family so let’s not talk about two separate things.”
Lin Zaozao supported herself with Ji Fantian’s hand and helped pull up the middle-aged man sitting at the very front.
To tell the truth, since the other party was already an old man with a white beard, accepting his deep bows felt somewhat excessive!
Most importantly, it was very likely that this white-bearded old man was Ji Fantian's elder. So for her to accept the courtesy of an elder was indeed a bit much!
“Princess Mingzhu, I am the Third Elder of the Divine Doctor tribe, Ji Yichuan. Our Divine Doctor tribe originally had seven elders. Now, only I remain alive.
If you had not come to Bian City to save us eight days ago, our Divine Doctor tribe would have disappeared from this world too.
Whether we died or not was insignificant, but the inheritance of our Divine Doctor tribe over many years would also disappear. We cannot stand for this to happen.
Princess Mingzhu, to thank you for saving our lives and allowing the inheritance of our Divine Doctor tribe to continue, we specially came here to give thanks for taking us in and saving our lives.”
At the end, there was hoarseness in Elder Ji's voice, carrying a feeling of vicissitudes.
Indeed, not to mention what the Divine Doctor tribe was like before. But when Lin Zaozao first entered Bian City and saw the Divine Doctor tribesmen lying around haphazardly on the ground, she also knew how difficult their situation was at that time.
“Elder Ji, you don’t actually have to thank me! Fantian darling is my husband. I saved you all because of him too. Also, aren’t you the Divine Doctor tribe?
Just hearing Divine Doctor tribe, it sounds awe-inspiring. What I don’t understand is that your tribe heals illnesses and saves people. You do good deeds, so who would harm the Divine Doctor tribe? Or rather, what good would harming you bring them?”
Facing Lin Zaozao’s sudden question, Ji Fantian signaled his tribesmen to withdraw first before walking up to Lin Zaozao and saying,
“Zaozao, you haven’t eaten for seven days and your body is too weak.
Have your meal first, and after you’re done eating and have recovered your energy, I’ll tell you who exactly our Divine Doctor tribe offended, and why she wanted to exterminate our tribe.”
“Alright! As big as the earth and skies are, food is still the greatest. Oh right! Where are Xiao Taohua, Xiao Liuli, Oldest Brother Han Ye and Uncle Zhang? Why didn’t I see them when I woke up?”
“Zaozao, Bian City has just experienced a plague. Bian City has a lot to recover from now, so Xiao Taohua and Xiao Liuli went with Han Ye and Uncle Zhang to restore order in Bian City.”
“I see! Then let’s eat first. After we’re done, when I have recovered my strength, I’ll go find Xiao Taohua and the rest.”
Sitting at the dining table, Lin Zaozao first ate some liquid food. Feeling that her stomach and intestines were comfortable, she drank some chicken soup before putting down her chopsticks.
It was not that her appetite was small now, but because she had not eaten for seven days, she dared not eat too much.
【System, are you there?】
【I'm here, what does the host want to ask?】
【System, didn't you say you would upgrade my rewards to level three after I resolved the plagues in Canglan Country and Fengshuo Country? What about now?
Do you want to upgrade my rewards to level three? I really want to know, besides being able to get level three marrow cleansing liquid and beauty liquid, what exactly are the random reward options?】
【Alright. Please help someone transfer pain first. After helping others transfer pain, the system can then upgrade the host's rewards to level three.
However, I want to remind the host again. You can let others use the random rewards, but if you let others drink the level three marrow cleansing liquids or beauty liquids, every drop will make them gain six pounds of meat.】
【Alright, I get it. The poison in my dear husband's body has been cured. Unless absolutely necessary, I would never casually give others marrow cleansing liquid and beauty liquid to drink! After all, what girl doesn't want to have a slim waist? Even if I don't have a slim waist, I still don't want to have a spare tire!
Damn system, I'm going to help others transfer illnesses now, then wait for you to give me that random two-choice reward!】
After speaking with the system, Lin Zaozao turned around to look at Ji Fantian, who had stopped using his chopsticks, and excitedly asked:
"Fantian darling, is there anywhere on your body that feels uncomfortable?"
"Zaozao, my body is fine, I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere," Ji Fantian replied.
Hearing Ji Fantian's words, Lin Zaozao looked at his currently skinny and bony appearance, and didn't bother arguing with him. She directly grabbed his hand to try transferring any illnesses from his body.
As a result, as Lin Zaozao looked at the illnesses on her hand, she glared at Ji Fantian, who had lowered his head somewhat guiltily.
Oh well, after the Border City incident, Ji Fantian's body was bound to be damaged. But recovering fully would take more than just a day or two.
For now, her random two-choice reward was more important.
Dear god! She was so looking forward to what the random reward from the system would be!
A two-choice random reward! What should she choose?! She thought about the possibility of becoming a great beauty, or becoming an unparalleled martial arts master. Lin Zaozao's heart was bubbling over with joy.
【System, I've already transferred Fantian darling's illnesses over. I want to redeem my reward now!】
【Please accept host-grade three marrow cleansing liquid and beauty liquid, plus a free random two-choice reward.】
As Lin Zaozao looked on excitedly, when she saw the random two-choice reward the system had given her, the smile on her face instantly transferred onto the system's face.
The two random rewards were: gain six jin of weight, or let out three loud farts!
【Damn system, is this a reward or a punishment?! Gaining six jin of weight and letting out three loud farts - what kind of random reward is this?! Are you sure this isn't a punishment?】
【Host, how is this not a random reward? If you don't like this reward, you can give the two-choice random reward to someone else! That way, even if you give the random reward to someone else, you won't gain weight!
Also, host, I already told you last time - the reward is random. If this random reward isn't to your liking, maybe next time's will be more amenable.】
Upon hearing the system's malicious words, Lin Zaozao wanted to pull the damn system out of her mind and smash it into a meat paste.
Damn, and she'd looked forward to her two-choice random reward so much!
And now, the random reward had turned into this kind of crap.
As Lin Zaozao looked at the rewards to gain six jin of weight and fart loudly three times, then looked at Ji Fantian's currently skinny and bony appearance, she figured she may as well not let those six jin of weight go to waste. She'd just give the weight straight to Ji Fantian.
