58 -58: If You Don’t Seek Death, You Won’t Die
Ultimately, Tang Chuxia still fell unconscious; it wasn’t because Gu Beihuai had a change of heart, but because her body couldn’t withstand it any longer.
The plaster stirred up the pool of water in her mind, and as the two forces combined and countered each other, she finally managed to drift off into unconsciousness.
When Gu Beihuai saw Tang Chuxia faint, he panicked for a moment and called for Elder Huang to come over.
After checking, Elder Huang said, “Falling unconscious is more comfortable than being awake!”
His gaze fell on the corner of Gu Beihuai’s mouth, “What’s the matter with you?
Why are you still getting angry with the girl?
Can’t you see how much she’s suffering?”
Tang Jianjun also said, “Xiaxia has been through so much since she was little; it’s a miracle that she’s even physically intact.”
Gu Beihuai pressed his no longer bleeding lips, “I didn’t lay a hand on her!”
Elder Huang rolled his eyes, infuriatingly nonchalant, “You’d better hurry up and find yourself a wife, then you’ll know how to cherish someone!”
Gu Beihuai scoffed, “Why do I need a wife?
Women are terrifying!”
Directly resulting from Tang Chuxia inflicting him with gynophobia.
Tang Jianjun pulled them outside to talk, so as not to disturb Tang Chuxia’s rest in the room.
It was fortunate that Elder Huang was living alone, with plenty of rooms in the yard.
Elder Huang was also in a rare good mood, bringing out a pot of his hidden rice wine to warm on the stove, and asking Tang Jianjun to get some peanuts and side dishes for the wine.
The three of them sat beside the stove, drinking.
“You two lads, not much different in age, why do you love to resort to violence?”
Elder Huang picked up his two ounces of wine and took a sip, immediately feeling comfortable all over, and picked up a peanut with his chopsticks and tossed it into his mouth.
“Xiaxia was young and naive in the past, why did you even quarrel with her?”
Elder Huang asked Gu Beihuai, who also took a big gulp of wine.
Compared to the old man who drank slowly, he just downed it in one go.
The two ounces of rice wine were not high in alcohol content; to him, it was almost like a beverage.
“Who’s quarreling with her?
She went too far!”
Gu Beihuai said irritably, and Tang Jianjun cursed, “Cut the crap, don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking.
Isn’t it just because Xiaxia made you cry when you were little?
A grudge-holding boy!”
Elder Huang nodded in agreement, “Indeed, holding such grudges isn’t good!”
Gu Beihuai: …
These two were doing this on purpose.
“How did her Divine Power come back?”
Gu Beihuai certainly remembered that Tang Chuxia’s power had been fading; otherwise, on that snowy night, she wouldn’t have been so weak as to be subdued by him so easily.
Tang Jianjun shook his head.
When it came to his sister’s physical condition, he truly had no solution.
Elder Huang sighed, “That child was born with Innate Divine Strength, showing extraordinary signs from birth.
Just at the age of one, several old men heard about it and wanted to take her away.”
Tang Jianjun didn’t understand much about the past as he was too young then.
It was only when he got older that he knew such a thing had happened.
Gu Beihuai knew nothing about this.
“What happened then?” Gu Beihuai inquired further.
Elder Huang sighed, “Innate Divine Strength, yet born frail from the womb.
Twins tend to be physically weaker, and given that the other twin perished, you can imagine Xiaxia’s health certainly wouldn’t be good.”
He took another sip of wine, “Back in the day, your mother came to me for help, but I didn’t have much of a solution.
Fortunately, my master was still alive at that time, and he came up with a method.
Slowly, he sealed Xiaxia’s Divine Power, allowing her to return to being an ordinary person and recuperate.
Once her body was well, her Divine Power would naturally recover!”
Gu Beihuai was confused, “But that’s not right; if her body had recovered, why does she still faint whenever she exerts herself?”
Elder Huang shook his head helplessly, “Her body hadn’t improved at all when the Divine Power returned; it was the medicine that broke through the seal!”
Gu Beihuai thought of the snowy night when Tang Chuxia had medicated herself.
He couldn’t help but be speechless.
This was really a case of courting death.
Tang Jianjun obviously remembered their parents telling him about Tang Chuxia’s illness.
The difference was that Gu Beihuai knew it was Tang Chuxia’s own doing, whereas Tang Jianjun and Elder Huang thought it was someone else’s doing.
“Normal people might just get through it, or relieve it by having sex, and it would be fine, but for Xiaxia’s body, if whatever it is isn’t expelled in time, the medicinal effects will trigger the abilities my master sealed within her!”
The meaning was crystal clear, Tang Chuxia had screwed herself over.
“Although I can relieve her symptoms with acupuncture now, I cannot completely heal her body, and that medicinal residue in her body, if not expelled, will sooner or later cause trouble!”
Elder Huang sighed, “So find the girl a partner to get married to sooner!”
Tang Jianjun hummed in agreement with Elder Huang’s words.
As for Gu Beihuai by their side, he said nothing.
He was somewhat in a daze, recalling the words Tang Chuxia had said when she tried to seduce him.
“I just want to sleep with you!”
Were her feelings really just about wanting to sleep with him?
It wasn’t that she had developed feelings for him, as he had thought.
But he couldn’t bring himself to sleep with Tang Chuxia without any feelings.
It wasn’t so much that he was excessively bound by propriety, but that Tang Chuxia was special, the two of them having been enemies since childhood; if they really did sleep together, what would he do afterward?
The key issue was that he dreamed of Tang Chuxia night after night, how could he ensure he wouldn’t get entangled with her in the future?
Drink after drink, he poured down.
Tang Jianjun and Elder Huang watched Gu Beihuai who was drinking by himself with confusion.
Has this kid lost it?
Or is he too excited?
Tang Jianjun thought of a possibility and gritted his teeth, “Gu Beihuai, remember this, my sister might be unwell, but don’t even think about bullying her again!”
Gu Beihuai: …
Elder Huang chimed in, “The girl is a bit impulsive, she just bit you a couple of times; as a man, you should be more generous, don’t hold a grudge against her!”
Gu Beihuai: …
The alcohol stung as it passed his lips.
Why couldn’t he hold a grudge?
He was the one bitten, and it was on the mouth.
His first kiss was gone.
Should he not be upset?
“Right, about Xiaxia biting you, you mustn’t tell anyone, ruining her reputation and she won’t find a good match, I will hold you accountable!” warned Tang Jianjun.
Elder Huang also persuaded, “Exactly, exactly, the girl bit you because she was in pain, she probably didn’t even see where she was biting, probably thought she was biting a dog in her agony!”
Gu Beihuai couldn’t stand it anymore and yelled, “Don’t go too far, am I a dog to you?”
Tang Jianjun casually hummed, “Feels quite dog-like!”
Elder Huang agreed, “With your temperament, holding grudges like a little girl, you really are quite dog-like!”
He was the one bitten, yet he was the one getting scolded.
What species was Tang Chuxia?
Why is everyone around him not normal?
“Alright, alright, we’ll find you a gentle and virtuous wife in the future, does that make up for it?”
Tang Jianjun’s hand clapped on his shoulder, offering perfunctory comfort.
Gu Beihuai shrugged off his hand, “Do I need your compensation?”
Tang Jianjun lost his patience, “If no compensation is needed, fine, but don’t think about my sister, Xiaxia definitely needs a husband who dotes on her, not a man like you who just likes to resort to violence!”
Gu Beihuai: What’s wrong with being physical?
“What happened to gender equality?”
