Chapter 195: Chapter 195 Modification 4
"It’s not so easy to be healed completely. I just patched up the wound on the surface, the internal organs are still damaged,"
Tian Xinyue cried out in surprise, "Ah! So you were tricking us just now!"
"If I didn’t trick you, how could I bear to let her go," Han Jiaojiao chuckled with her hand covering her mouth and added, "I also took a little advantage, you know. Her healing ability is actually very powerful, but the backlash can be quite severe, so that’s why she was reluctant to heal the rabbit. If it were Yan Xiao, hehehe..."
If it were Yan Xiao, perhaps Anke Wei would have gone all out to heal him. Even with the backlash, it would make Yan Xiao feel indebted to her, owe her a favor, and it would be easier for them to interact in the future. Isn’t that what relationships between people are about, a bit of giving and taking? Seeing each other more often might even lead to feelings developing.
But, what’s the point in healing a rabbit?
It was a waste of ability with no chance to involve Yan Xiao, utterly thankless and effortful.
How could Yan Xiao not see through Anke Wei’s intentions? The little girl’s thoughts were pretty simple, she just wanted to get closer to a superpower user. Too bad Yan Xiao wasn’t interested in her that way.
Yan Xiao thought to himself: I’m not a sister-con like Brother Han...
He still preferred models with full figures and long legs.
"But your act just now was really quite frightening!" Tian Xinyue complimented Han Jiaojiao.
Yan Xiao rolled his eyes, "I was wondering how you suddenly became so powerful. Turns out, you just stitched up the skin!"
"Tsch! Just wait until I absorb a few more crystal cores! Such wounds will definitely be nothing to me!" Han Jiaojiao lifted her face, full of pride. Although she had tricked them, she was still proud she could fool a superpower user from the elite team.
Seeing her amusing little appearance, Yan Xiao couldn’t help teasing her with a laugh, "You’ve absorbed quite a few crystal cores before, so how come the tester didn’t react at all? Oh dear, the tester is designed to count by tens of thousands. Jiaojiao, you couldn’t possibly be... below ten thousand, could you? Hahahaha!"
Upon hearing this, Han Jiaojiao immediately lost her vigor. She was also really bummed out that the tester showed no reaction.
Han Yi raised an eyebrow and cast a cool glance at Yan Xiao.
Yan Xiao shivered and immediately plastered a smile on his face, saying to Han Jiaojiao, "...Ha, that... hehe, maybe our Jiaojiao’s ability is MAX? So that’s why the dial didn’t show anything!"
Han Jiaojiao pouted, sounding depressed, "Don’t make fun of me... This tester has a much wider range than the previous ones, and even if it exceeded the range, it should display a string of zeros."
Yan Xiao felt Han Yi’s gaze on him getting colder and colder.
A child made to cry by his own antics, must be soothed even if one has to kneel...
"Ahhhh! I know! Could it be because... your ability is so unique that the tester doesn’t work on it! Yes, yes, that’s got to be it, our Jiaojiao’s ability is too special, even the newest tester can’t handle it, ha ha, aren’t you happy?!"
Han Jiaojiao looked at Yan Xiao with half-belief, muttering, "Happy about what... You just said my ability score was less than ten thousand..."
"..." Yan Xiao wiped sweat from his brow.
Han Yi came over, took Han Jiaojiao’s hand, and casually tossed the dead rabbit in front of Yan Xiao, saying indifferently, "Burn it."
Yan Xiao quickly nodded.
Han Yi no longer looked at him, and took Han Jiaojiao back to their room.
He heated water for Han Jiaojiao to wash her hands, then held her in his lap and began to trim her nails.
Han Jiaojiao let Han Yi fuss over her, leaning lazily in his embrace, chatting with him idly.
"Brother, when are we leaving?"
"Soon, in the next couple of days."
"Oh... Has Lu Ge already decided on the candidates?"
"Yeah, it’s pretty much set."
"Hehe! I must be one of them, right? I will go with brother."
"Mhm, baby will go with brother."
"Brother, after we get that batch of military weapons, what will we do next?"
Han Yi paused for a moment, looking at Han Jiaojiao. His gaze was as gentle as sunlight shining on a stream, with a power that soothed the soul.
His voice was low and peaceful, "Wherever baby wants to go, brother will take you."
Han Jiaojiao’s heartbeat quickened. She pursed her lips and tilted her head up to him—
Smack.
A kiss tinged with playfulness and affection.
Han Yi’s eyes darkened slightly. He continued trimming her nails without a word, but as Han Jiaojiao prepared to get up, he enveloped her in his arms and pressed her down on the mattress, the corners of his mouth curved in a smile as he looked at her.
"How comes, after so long, baby still hasn’t learned the right way to kiss..."
As he said this, he leaned down and sealed her lips with his...
...
A whole night of tender passion.
—Han Yi quietly watched the girl on the bed, who was sleeping soundly with long eyelashes casting shadows on her eyelids, rosy cheeks that were cute and enticing, and her long hair encircling her body, serene as a sleeping beauty that slept for a hundred years.
His very own sleeping beauty.
Warmth swelled in Han Yi’s heart. He heated more water and gently cleaned her body, his movements tender as if he was handling an extremely expensive piece of art or a unique treasure. 𝚗ovp𝚞b.𝚌om
Wasn’t she his treasure? She was the treasure of his heart, his lifelong love.
