They're not even human anymore; those wicked women can cry even more miserably.

"Senior, you were too active just now, you need to rest now."

Sistine sat up, and the sheet slipped off her.

Under the moonlight, her snow-white skin appeared.

The warmth of the boy came from behind.

Sistine seemed to remember something, and her brain went completely blank.

She mechanically turned around and looked at Xia.

At this moment, she finally noticed the situation of the two of them.

Looking at herself and Char, who were being completely honest with each other, Sistine's brain went blank.

What on earth happened?!

Why is it like this?

Countless questions flooded her mind, and Sistine was completely bewildered.

Char did not hide it, but chose to admit it frankly.

"Simply put, the senior was poisoned before, and this is the only way to detoxify her."

It is concise and to the point, with not a single superfluous word.

But Sistine simply couldn't process that short sentence.

Detoxification?

Is this how it should be?

Sistine hesitated, wanting to say something but unable to utter a word.

My mind is a mess, I can't make sense of it.

The memory only stays at the moment when she was burning up and calling for help.

After that, she knew nothing more.

What happened during this period?

She didn't know, and didn't have time to figure it out, because...

"Cuckoo-"

The sudden sound was somewhat inappropriate.

Sistine clutched her stomach, turning her face slightly away, a little embarrassed.

But your stomach won't listen and keeps rumbling.

Char did not laugh, nor did he show any unusual expression.

He had already anticipated that excessive exertion would require replenishing nutrients.

So early in the morning, he prepared a late-night snack.

Xia got up from the bed and brought the things over.

Sistine instinctively tried to get up, but Char pressed her back down.

"You are weak right now, so lie down properly."

Char Aznable is a serious and tough archer.

Sistine wasn't feeling well; the atmosphere was a bit awkward and strange.

But if I get up now...

Just thinking about how she looked under the sheets made Sistine's earlobes blush.

So in the end, she obediently lay down, without her usual aloofness, and was very compliant.

Char held a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other.

He didn't want to eat too much in the evening, so he simply cooked some porridge, which was just the right temperature for him.

When the porridge was brought to Sistine's lips, she obediently opened her mouth and accepted Char's feeding.

Her cheeks were slightly flushed.

It always feels sweet.

The white porridge flowed into my stomach, and with food to eat, my stomach calmed down, and I regained some strength.

Is there too much sugar in this porridge?

Sistine's thoughts were a jumbled mess.

However, their movements were still very obedient.

Some porridge residue stuck to the corner of her lips, so Xia Ya reached out and grabbed a piece of paper, gently wiping it clean for her.

At this moment, Sistine was still thinking about random things, feeling as if she were flying in the sky. She didn't notice that she didn't feel any aversion to Char's wiping and feeding.

It felt so natural, as if it were always meant to be this way.

One child is being fed obediently, while the other is being fed tenderly; the scene is warm and peaceful.

...

Just a moment.

"Click."

The sound of the door opening came from inside Sistine's house.

He closed the door and turned around to see Lilith squatting by the door.

Lilith hugged her knees with both hands, her black stockings stretched open, revealing glimpses of her skin.

With her golden curly hair cascading down her back, she was curled up in a corner, looking up at Xia with her tiny face, which looked quite pitiful.

It's like a pitiful little thing that's been abandoned.

Isn't it pitiful?

He was the ultimate victim, you could say.

Xia bent down and gently draped a coat over her shoulders, helping her up in a soft voice.

"Honey, shall we go back?"

Because she had been squatting for too long, Lilith's legs were a little numb, so she was leaning against Char's chest.

The coat blocked the wind, and my body gradually warmed up.

However, his legs still lacked strength, making it difficult for him to move freely.

She turned to look at Sistine's house door.

"Should I go in and check on my senior?"

She never expected that the recuperation would last so long.

At first, she would check on the situation inside every now and then, but later, after waiting for so long, she lost all interest in talking.

Later, the room quieted down. She wanted to ask, but Xia Ya said that he had temporarily controlled the sword energy in his senior's body, and the next step was to straighten and suppress it.

Going in now seemed pointless, and she needed the protectors even more. They couldn't leave and couldn't open the door for her, so she continued to squat outside and wait.

Later, the lights in the room came on.

But she was too lazy to ask anymore.

It was so late that she was getting sleepy.

But a gust of cold wind brought me back to my senses.

Then the lights went out again and the door opened.

The recuperation is finally over, shouldn't she go in and visit her senior?

Char grabbed her arm and stopped her.

The movements were gentle, yet very assertive.

"Senior has just recovered from a state of disorder and was exhausted. She needs to rest now, so let's not disturb her."

"I'm also worried about my senior."

Lilith looked somewhat hesitant.

Since I'm already here, how will my senior know about my hard work if I don't make my presence known?

They stood guard outside the door for half the night.

"Your senior is already asleep. I know you care about her, but even if you want to visit her, it's the same if you come tomorrow."

Fell asleep?

Then no matter how much she tries to perform, it's just for the blind.

Even if we wake her up, I'm afraid she'll feel more resentment than gratitude.

Lilith hesitated.
