Romantic Medical Immortal-Chapter 83: Misunderstanding Resolved

"Of course not!"

Upon hearing this, Ni Qingyao was taken aback, and she explained emotionally, "Xiao Xiao, how could I possibly have a relationship with Xiao Chen?"

"You both did such things that it’s hard to doubt that you didn’t have a relationship!"

Yang Xiao’s face looked very unpleasant; she just couldn’t accept that her mom actually had a substantial relationship with her son.

Although Yang Chen and the mother are not related by blood.

But still, it’s a mother-son relationship!

If this gets out, it will definitely drown them in gossip.

"This..." Ni Qingyao was momentarily stunned, her face becoming unsightly; she realized that once some things are done, it’s difficult to gain others’ trust no matter how you explain.

But she must explain clearly, or this matter will surely create a rift between her and her daughter.

"Hoo!!"

Ni Qingyao took a deep breath and said seriously, "Xiao Xiao, since you know about this, I won’t hide it from you anymore."

"What is it?" A look of confusion filled Yang Xiao’s eyes as she curiously asked.

"Actually, the beauty milk you’ve been using is your brother’s..."

At this point, Ni Qingyao kept observing Yang Xiao’s expression, and seeing her frown, she hesitated.

If the truth is revealed, can Yang Xiao really handle it?

"Hurry up, what exactly is it?"

Yang Xiao, being impatient, became agitated upon seeing the other’s silence and immediately asked.

"It’s... it’s your brother’s essence!"

At this stage, Ni Qingyao hesitated no longer and straightforwardly revealed it.

"Essence??" A perplexed look flashed across Yang Rou’s face as she continued, "What’s that?"

"It’s something for passing down the lineage..."

After explaining, Ni Qingyao turned her head away, really not daring to meet her daughter’s gaze.

"What!!!"

As expected, Yang Xiao’s eyes widened in shock, revealing an indescribable expression. She exclaimed emotionally, "Mom, are you sure you’re not kidding me? The beauty milk I’ve been consuming lately is all my brother’s stuff?"

"I’m not lying to you!"

Ni Qingyao looked at Yang Xiao seriously.

"Urgh~~~"

Momentarily, Yang Xiao felt her stomach churn, squatted before the trash can, and began to retch, vomiting up all the food she’d eaten at noon.

Upon seeing this, Ni Qingyao immediately stepped forward to gently pat Yang Xiao’s back, saying, "Xiao Xiao, I’m really sorry. I wanted to tell you initially, but seeing the essence benefit your body and with you constantly asking for it, I had to hide this matter."

After vomiting, Yang Xiao’s eyes were full of tears as she looked at Ni Qingyao and asked, "Well, that night I went to your room, why was there Yang Chen’s essence on your face? What on earth did you two do??"

At this moment, Yang Xiao’s gaze was sharp as a knife, fixing upon Ni Qingyao.

Facing her daughter’s questioning, Ni Qingyao didn’t panic; she calmly replied, "That night, your brother came to me and proposed working at my massage parlor. To refuse him, I deliberately set traps, and then..."

Soon, Ni Qingyao narrated all that happened that night to Yang Xiao. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"Why did he want to do that?"

A trace of surprise crossed Yang Xiao’s eyes as she asked, "Could it be that he wanted to do that to earn money for me?"

"Partly!" Ni Qingyao reached out to hold Yang Xiao’s hands, her look turning exceedingly serious, and said, "He primarily wanted to earn money to treat your illness. I don’t know what your sister told him; after the wedding, he just wanted to do that."

"Treat my illness??"

Yang Xiao suddenly froze; she knew the job was not only hard but could ruin his future.

She never thought Yang Chen would resort to such a job to treat her illness.

At this moment, her emotions were mixed, and her anger had somewhat dissipated, leaving behind guilt she couldn’t describe.

Seeing this, Ni Qingyao realized it was an opportunity and immediately said, "Actually, at first, your brother did not agree to let you use his essence. But you kept asking, and seeing that it helped you sleep peacefully, I went to persuade him!"

These words were lies, but she had no choice; for family harmony, she had to tell small lies.

"So today at the office, were you collecting the essence for me?"

Yang Xiao was suddenly enlightened and looked at Ni Qingyao seriously.

Ni Qingyao responded with a light ’mm’ and then nodded heavily.

"If it’s just collecting the essence, he can do it himself, right? Why did you use your mouth? That’s... too outrageous!"

Yang Xiao still couldn’t accept the scene she witnessed in the office during the day.

Gulp!

Upon hearing this, Ni Qingyao’s heart panicked. That’s right; if it’s just collecting essence, there are many ways—why use the mouth?

Her brain was working rapidly!

A few seconds later, she instinctively replied, "At first, I wanted him to handle it himself... but your brother’s physique is very special; he can’t manage it on his own—it needs someone else, so it had to be me to help him!"

"Really?" Yang Xiao cast a doubtful glance.

"Of course it’s true! There’s no reason for me to lie to you about this!"

Although Ni Qingyao felt somewhat guilty, her expression remained stern, ensuring her daughter saw nothing suspicious.

"Mom, I’m sorry!" Upon learning the entire truth, Yang Xiao’s eyes became red, and she rushed into Ni Qingyao’s arms, sobbing lightly, "You and brother have done so much for me, and yet I doubted you. The key is that brother wanted to do that because of me... I’m sorry!"

"Hoo!!"

Seeing this, Ni Qingyao breathed a sigh of relief, but upon noticing Yang Xiao’s guilt-ridden face, she felt a bit guilty herself and quickly said, "Don’t apologize; we’re a family, and we should help each other, right?"

"You’re right!"

Yang Xiao lifted her head to look at Ni Qingyao earnestly, "But you must promise me not to help Yang Chen with that anymore; you’re mother and son, spreading this will bring dishonor—okay?"

"If I don’t help Yang Chen, then you won’t be able to..."

Ni Qingyao looked worried.

"It’s okay, I won’t consume it anymore!" Yang Xiao expressed a disdainful look, stating, "Had I known that the beauty milk was Yang Chen’s essence, I definitely wouldn’t have consumed it; also, as a sister taking her brother’s essence—what is that?"

"Alright." Ni Qingyao nodded lightly.

"Promise me, do not do that with Yang Chen anymore, and don’t use your mouth to help him. If I find out you still help him, I won’t speak to you for the rest of my life—mark my words!!"

Yang Xiao threatened Ni Qingyao as she feared her mother would make the wrong decision because of a momentary lapse.

By then, it would be too late!

"Okay, I promise you!"

After a moment’s hesitation, Ni Qingyao agreed with a smile.

Reflecting on it now, she found the recent happenings quite unbelievable; fortunately, Yang Xiao discovered it today. Otherwise, she might really have done such a thing with her son—just thinking about it was terrifying.

...

a.m.!

Yang Xiao’s stomach started to ache faintly. She tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep—before the essence, she would’ve already been asleep by now.

"Could it be psychological dependency already?"

Yang Xiao rubbed her aching stomach, feeling helpless, "Without the essence now, I can’t even sleep properly, and my stomach has started to hurt. Before, with the essence, I felt no pain whatsoever; could it really suppress my condition? If that’s the case..."

For a while, her eyes were filled with helplessness; she’d coerced her mom into guaranteeing not to do that with Yang Chen anymore.

From now on, there’d be no essence to consume!

"Can’t do; without the essence, before Yang Chen gathers all the drug materials, I might have to undergo surgery. During this period, I must rely on the essence—since Yang Chen can’t get it himself, why don’t I go help him?"

Thinking thus, a look of excitement emerged on Yang Rou’s face, "Yes, I’ll replace mom in getting Yang Chen’s essence; it’s my need in the first place, and we’re not blood-related, about the same age—it should be fine, right..."
