Chapter 17 The Lingering Warmth
Having arrived at the diagnosis, Jiang Linwan has devised a prescription to replenish Yang energy and dispel cold stagnation. Sooner or later, Brother Qiyue will become a normal man again.
Jiang Lin didn't cook crab for dinner again, as crab is considered cold in nature and not good for Qi Yue's condition.
Stir-fried leeks with shrimp is a classic warming and nourishing food therapy, tonifying kidney yang. Steamed egg custard with a little dodder seed powder further strengthens the body's foundation and supports yang...
It was almost eight o'clock in the evening when they finished their work. The summer night air on the island was hot and dry. After a long day of running around, Jiang Linwan felt sticky and uncomfortable all over, covered in the salty smell of the sea breeze.
Watching the show, Ang Luqi asked, "Brother Qiyue, where are we taking a shower?"
"You wait here."
Seeing the weariness in her eyes, Lu Qiyue silently picked up the tin bucket, filled several buckets with water, turned around and went to the kitchen to boil two large pots of water.
After mixing the water to a suitable temperature, I carried it to the bathroom bucket and poured it into the tub.
"Go ahead and wash. Call me if you need anything." Lu Qiyue's deep voice rang out, carrying the composure unique to a soldier.
Jiang Linwan nodded, took a change of clothes and went into the bathroom. The small bathroom was filled with warm water vapor, and the white mist blocked out the sound of the wind outside.
This book was first published on 2009.com, providing you with a reading experience free of errors and disordered chapters.
She took off her clothes, stepped into the bucket of water, and the warm water soothed her fatigue, making her feel extremely comfortable.
Having not showered for almost a week, Jiang Linwan really couldn't take it anymore. When she finally took a shower, she did it with extra care, completely forgetting that the military region's rest schedule was strict, with everyone turning off the lights at 9 p.m. every night without fail.
A loud lights-out whistle suddenly pierced the silent night sky!
Immediately afterwards, all the lights in the family quarters and military barracks went out.
The bathroom, which was dimly lit just a second ago, suddenly became pitch black, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.
"Ah! Brother Qiyue!" Jiang Linwan cried out in terror, her body stiffening as she looked at the surrounding darkness, fear engulfing her entire being.
"I'm here, I got you a flashlight..." Lu Qiyue held the flashlight in her hand, feeling somewhat regretful. If she hadn't hesitated, she probably would have already gotten the flashlight.
"I'll put it at the door for you." Lu Qiyue turned on the light and placed it at the door, the weak light shining into the room through the gap at the bottom of the door.
He turned to face the courtyard.
Seeing the light, Jiang Linwan's anxious heart was slightly relieved. She tiptoed out of the bathtub in the dim light, but her hand holding the edge of the tub suddenly slipped, and her foot, which hadn't yet landed, lost its balance and slid towards the bottom, causing her to lose her balance instantly!
With a "bang," she fell heavily to the ground, wincing and groaning in pain.
Lu Qiyue had been standing at the door when he heard a loud bang. He rushed into the house almost immediately and was caught off guard by the vivid scene on the ground.
In the hazy night, the beam of the flashlight, no longer blocked by the door, shone directly on the small figure on the ground.
The moisture had not yet dissipated, and the evening breeze gently caressed her slightly cool skin. The girl's fair and delicate body was completely exposed before his eyes.
Her hair was damp and clung to her neck, glistening with tiny water droplets. Her skin was as white as jade, and her figure was slender and graceful, every contour of her body exquisitely beautiful.
The air froze instantly.
Lu Qiyue froze in mid-air, his deep, dark eyes suddenly locking.
His self-control, which he was so proud of, crumbled instantly in the face of the breathtaking scenery before him.
The blood in his chest surged wildly, his muscles tensed instantly, his spine straightened, his strong jaw tightened, and his Adam's apple bobbed uncontrollably.
He quickly grabbed a piece of clothing draped over one side and covered Jiang Linwan's body, his voice hoarse: "Can you get up?"
Jiang Linwan's face was flushed. She quickly wrapped her body in her clothes and struggled to get up, but her ankle hurt terribly with every step.
Lu Qiyue's gaze fell on her swollen ankles, and he pulled her into his arms. Her warm, delicate skin pressed against his arm and chest without any obstruction.
The girl's delicate, sweet fragrance, after her bath, seeped into his body through her skin.
Lu Qiyue's Adam's apple bobbed violently, his hot breath pressing against his throat, not daring to let it escape even slightly.
He didn't even dare to tighten his arms, afraid that the slightest force would crush this fragile tenderness, and even more afraid that the surging heat in his heart would completely get out of control and burn the flustered little girl in his arms.
Jiang Linwan froze in his arms, overwhelmed by extreme shame and panic. Her mind went blank, and even her fingertips trembled slightly.
She pressed her lips tightly together, not daring to make the slightest sound. Her entire face, including the tips of her ears and her neck, was burning hot, almost dripping with blood.
It wasn't until Jiang Linwan was lying in bed and heard the sound beside her that she came back to her senses.
"Get dressed, I'll go out and get your medicine."
Watching Lu Qiyue's disappearing figure, Jiang Linwan quickly put on her clothes, touched her flushed face, and felt extremely embarrassed.
"Is it done?" Lu Qiyue's voice came from the doorway. Jiang Linwan replied, "Yes."
Lu Qiyue pushed open the door and came in, holding a liniment for sprains and bruises that was essential for the military region.
He could touch her without Jiang Linwan saying anything.
Lu Qiyue had already bent down, his posture upright, and he squatted slightly in front of her. His tall figure gently enveloped the petite Jiang Linwan, carrying the unique, crisp, snowy scent of a soldier, steadily encircling her in a small shadow.
He unscrewed the medicine bottle, squeezing out a cool, milky-white ointment from his fingertips. His hard, calloused fingertips, hardened from years of holding a gun, moved with unusual gentleness, unlike his usual style.
Without any further pulling, he raised his hand and gently grasped her slender, delicate ankle.
The moment their fingertips touched skin, they both shuddered.
Jiang Linwan dared not look down, but could only clench the hem of her clothes tightly, her long eyelashes trembling violently, her heart pounding like a drum, almost jumping out of her throat.
I stole a glance at Brother Qiyue; he was still as proper and orderly as ever.
Lu Qi tried to suppress the surging heat in his heart, but he couldn't suppress the changes in his body. He quickly applied the medicine and forced himself to calm down before leaving the house.
Jiang Linwan blushed with embarrassment, and felt a little disappointed. It seemed that Brother Qiyue was indeed seriously injured, yet he was still so calm.
It seems I need to increase the dosage a bit more. Qi Yue is so good to her, she's determined to cure him. Thinking about this, the little girl fell asleep.
As Lu Qiyue stood in the courtyard, his mind was filled with the image of the little girl's body that had been exposed to him just now, and he couldn't suppress the intense heat that was emanating from his body.
The tap water on the island at night, soaked with the coolness of the sea breeze, was bone-chillingly cold.
The cold water poured down instantly, but the bone-chilling cold could only suppress the surface heat; it couldn't suppress the medicinal properties surging through the bones, nor could it suppress the lingering palpitations in the heart.
He raised his hand to wipe the water from his face, his fingertips slightly cool, but a lingering warmth still remained in his heart.
After tidying up, Lu Qiyue returned to his room. The night was deep, and he tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. He finally drifted off to sleep.
All that could be heard were soft moans: "Brother Qiyue, Brother Qiyue~"
