Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 636 - 639 Another Bout

Looking at Ning Hua at that moment, Liu Ergou acted on an impulse. He actually lay down right next to her. Then, with a natural stretch of his arm, he embraced her and closed his eyes, ready to sleep.

When Liu Ergou hugged her, Ning Hua froze completely, not daring to move an inch. She never expected that her little joke would lead to him actually daring to sleep beside her. This was the first time in her entire life that a man had ever slept next to her! She was utterly mortified.

Meanwhile, Liu Ergou, who appeared completely composed on the outside, was screaming internally.

What in the world is wrong with me? How could I have impulsively lain down next to Ning Hua?! Heavens! But it's too late for regrets now. If I get up and leave, she'll almost certainly laugh at me.

So, Liu Ergou decided to see the mistake through, silently holding Ning Hua. She, in turn, let him hold her without moving. In just a few minutes, the two of them somehow drifted off to sleep.

As the two of them slept…

「In the city.」

The young man beside Old Cripple Head was holding a small pill, scrutinizing it carefully.

Watching him, Old Cripple Head spoke. "My good grandson, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to make a personal trip for this."

"Go see if you can have a good talk with that Liu Ergou. If it goes well, invite him to join us directly. Along the way, find a chance to get him to take this pill. After he consumes it, he'll be under our control!"

However, the young man sounded skeptical. "Master, are you sure this will work? This isn't the old days, when something like this might have been effective. Now, if there's a problem, people just go straight to the hospital. Even if someone is poisoned, a hospital can fix it right away. Besides, I hear that Liu Ergou is a doctor himself, and a rather extraordinary one. What if he detoxifies it himself?"

Hearing this, Old Cripple Head burst into hearty laughter. "Hahaha, my good grandson, your worries are unnecessary this time!"

The young man raised his eyebrows. "How are they unnecessary, Master? I think my concerns are quite valid!"

Seeing the young man's puzzled expression, Old Cripple Head explained slowly, "My good grandson, your concerns aren't wrong, but they are unnecessary. Let me tell you, this medicine was passed down by our ancestors. It's not something modern medicine can handle. Just go ahead and give it to Liu Ergou! If it doesn't work, you can take my seat, and I'll be your subordinate!"

Hearing Old Cripple Head speak with such conviction, the young man couldn't argue any further. He simply tucked the pill into his clothes. Then, he gathered his things, shouldered his luggage, and left.

Time flew by.

「The next day.」

It was another sunny day. After waking up, Liu Ergou went through his usual practice routine before heading to the back mountain to spar with Ning Hua.

Although it had been some time since they last sparred, the break hadn't negatively affected his skills. In fact, his abilities had improved considerably. He managed to exchange over a hundred moves with Ning Hua without a break. Finally, Liu Ergou spotted an opening in her defense, lunged forward, and subdued her with a swift over-the-shoulder throw.

Looking at Ning Hua on the ground, Liu Ergou couldn't help but laugh out loud. After more than half a month, he could finally beat Ning Hua! All his hard work hadn't been in vain. This was fantastic.

Seeing how excited he was, Ning Hua couldn't help but shake her head. "Er Gou, can't you have a little more ambition? You're this happy just because you beat me, and I'm only at the Dark Jin realm! You do realize you're at the Houtian realm, right? That's a whole major realm above me! It took you this long to defeat someone a full realm beneath you. I really don't see what's worth celebrating!"

Being doused with cold water didn't anger Liu Ergou. Instead, he replied cheerfully, "Senior Sister, you don't get it. You're a genuine member of the Ancient Martial Sects! Defeating you means I have the strength to protect myself in the Ancient Martial Sects. Don't you think that's worth being happy about?" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Hearing this, Ning Hua realized his words made a certain kind of sense. She didn't say anything more and simply let Liu Ergou enjoy his celebration.

Since he had finally defeated Ning Hua, the combat portion of his special training was officially over. The remaining training focused on the control of True Qi, an area where Liu Ergou was still lacking. This would become his future focus.

With the day off, Liu Ergou rested for a bit in the shade of a tree before heading straight home. He planned to lie in bed all afternoon and go nowhere.

After lunch, he went to bed early and started playing on his phone.

Ning Hua had no problem with this. However, Lu Shuangyue, who had been living in Fengzhu Village for over half a month, had a big problem with it. She had followed Liu Ergou back with the intention of getting to know him better, and then… hehehe…

But ever since her arrival, Liu Ergou had spent every waking moment either training or on his way to train, completely ignoring her. This left Lu Shuangyue feeling extremely frustrated. The one time Liu Ergou had taken a break a couple of days ago, a bunch of other things came up, and she couldn't get ahold of him. It seemed he was always one step ahead of her.

But today, Lu Shuangyue finally seized her opportunity. Without a moment's hesitation, she marched straight to Liu Ergou's bedroom. She didn't even bother knocking; she kicked the door open and strode in.

Liu Ergou was completely baffled by her behavior. He couldn't understand why Lu Shuangyue had suddenly become so aggressive.

Before he could say a word, Lu Shuangyue lifted his blanket and slipped inside. She immediately offered him a passionate kiss.

Although Liu Ergou's mind was reeling, his body responded instinctively. A few minutes later, Lu Shuangyue lay limp in his arms, looking as if she were his for the taking.

Gazing at her, Liu Ergou began to lose control. He'd been fasting for so long and had only had a single proper meal. Now that Lu Shuangyue had delivered herself to him, it would seem rather rude to refuse.

Thinking this, Liu Ergou chuckled, preparing to have a good 'talk' with Lu Shuangyue. She, too, looked at him with great anticipation.

Just as the two of them were ready to begin their 'deep conversation,' a shout suddenly came from outside the door.

"Brother Ergou! Brother Ergou!"
