She walked back and forth in the kitchen several times. An hour had passed and Lin Chong was still practicing sword moves, only he was using some other moves.

Lin Ran did not come back at noon today. I heard that a competition was being held in the back mountain. As the general supervisor, Lin Ran naturally had to be present to provide guidance. So today Mu Shishuang could only eat leftovers from last night. But even leftovers were very delicious after Ye Wanxi's preparation.

In the living room of Lin Ran's house, Mu Shishuang, Ye Wanxi and Lin Chong were sitting around the table. Ye Wanxi was busy serving rice and soup.

Mu Shishuang watched for a while, and couldn't help but put down the bowl of hot soup in her hand, and said softly: "Wanxi, sit down and eat!"

"Sister Mu, I'm usually busy, don't worry about me!"

After Ye Wanxi poured a bowl of soup for Lin Chong, he could finally pick up his bowl and chopsticks to eat. Although her personality was not as lively and cute as her sister Qingyi, she was still good at speaking.

With Ye Wanxi's deliberate promotion, the dining atmosphere was quite harmonious. Mu Shishuang gradually spoke more, and his expression and tone became less cold and indifferent.

"Lin Chong...does he practice swordplay every day? I saw him practicing swordplay today in the heavy rain..."

Mu Shishuang found an opportunity and asked the question that he was curious about.

"Sister Mu, sword practice is his unshakable daily training plan!"

Ye Wanxi was obviously a little resentful about this. She rolled her eyes at Lin Chong and complained, "No matter what time it is, he always practices swordplay for an hour or two every morning. Practicing swordplay in the heavy rain is considered good."

"One time, the competition was about to start, but he still had to practice sword fighting to warm up. If I hadn't found him in the back hills, he would have been considered a forfeit!"

Ye Wanxi's memory of this incident was so profound that when she talked about it now, the emotions in her words were overwhelming.

Lin Chong, who was standing by, scratched his head awkwardly when he heard this and tried to explain himself: "It's not as exaggerated as you say. If I hadn't practiced swordplay and warmed up, I wouldn't be in such good shape for the competition. You see, I won easily that time!"

"Humph!"

Ye Wanxi snorted lightly, lowered her head to eat, and looked like she didn't want to pay any attention to Lin Chong.

When Lin Chong saw Wanxi throwing a tantrum, he was not stupid and he picked some food for Ye Wanxi and said some nice words to coax her. But Ye Wanxi couldn't help laughing after hearing those nice words.

Ye Wanxi covered her mouth and chuckled, "Brother Lin Chong, how can anyone say such nice things, telling me to eat more and have a better figure? Don't I have a bad figure now, huh?!"

"I... Wanxi, of course you have a good figure now. I just wanted to... No, I..."

Lin Chong was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He really wished that time could stop so that he could go to his father to learn from him.

"Pfft!"

Ye Wanxi really couldn't help it and burst into laughter, losing her composure for a moment. Lin Chong on the side was even more anxious and wanted to ask Mu Shishuang for help.

But how could Mu Shishuang know these? She also said that she could not help, but today's lunch was quite interesting. She didn't really understand what love was, but Wanxi should be complaining that Lin Chong didn't take some time to accompany her, right?

……

In the evening, Lin Ran and Wen Qianyi returned to the yard together. A group of people were busy in the kitchen again. When Lin Chong and Wan Xi took the bowls and chopsticks and food to the hall, only Lin Ran, Qianyi and Mu Shishuang were left in the kitchen.

Wen Qianyi pulled Lin Ran who was stirring the broth, and without hiding it from Mu Shishuang who was watching the fire, she said softly: "Senior, I'll have to trouble you to help Shishuang remove the fire poison tonight. It's the same process as before."

"Hey, what are you going to do?"

Lin Ran was stunned and asked quickly.

"I'm going to refine pills. Recently, I have received some requests for pill refining. The rewards they offer are very generous. When the time comes, I will have the medicinal materials and can refine some pills for Xiao Chong to enhance his strength." Wen Qianyi said softly.

"This...I really don't know how to thank you!"

Lin Ran felt helpless. His love for Qianyi was growing more and more. If he made Qianyi sad, he would probably feel guilty for the rest of his life.

Wen Qianyi blinked mischievously, put her hands behind her back, and said with a smile: "Senior, there is no need to thank you for the relationship between us. It's just that I still need you to practice with me when the time comes~"

After saying this, Wen Qianyi gave him a loving look.

"I'll be there whenever you call!"

Lin Ran couldn't help but get excited. How could serious cultivation be interesting?

Mu Shishuang, who was standing aside, looked at the two people who were stuck together like glue. She understood a little what being inseparable meant. However, as the elder sister's younger sister, seeing Lin Ran being so philandering, should she stop him?

Ke Qianyi is a very nice person, and many men have three or four wives. If she were a man, she would also fall in love with such a girl and make her her wife.

Why can Lin Ran attract his sister and a girl as outstanding as Qianyi? Maybe she needs to read more love stories to find the answer!

Tonight's dinner was still lively. Although there was no foxy woman, Mu Shishuang found it very interesting and warm to be with them...

After dinner, Wen Qianyi and Lin Ran left together. Little Lin Chong also took Ye Wanxi to live alone, leaving Mu Shishuang alone.

She stood in front of her house, looking at the dark house outside where it was still raining, and she actually felt a little lonely in her heart.

That surprised her a little. In all these years of her life, she thought she had gotten used to loneliness, but now she was a little uncomfortable.

Looking back at the dim and somewhat empty room, Mu Shishuang wondered whether he should follow Lin Ran's example and put some flowers, calligraphy and paintings to decorate it. It was a bit monotonous now.

"Lin Ran is going to help me get rid of the fire poison tonight. Should I prepare first?"

Mu Shishuang felt that he had nothing to do anyway, so he went to the bathroom, took out the bathtub and went to the side hall, pulled the curtain, poured a lot of cold water, then went to the kitchen to boil hot water. He went back and forth for a while and sweated a lot.

After she found a towel to wipe herself briefly, she sat alone at a large table near the door, reading the storybook in her hand in the dim light.

Time passed quietly, and it was midnight. Mu Shishuang added some hot water, but Lin Ran still didn't come. For some reason, she felt a little lost and frustrated.

This inexplicable feeling surprised Mu Shishuang herself.

"What's wrong with me?"

Mu Shishuang couldn't help but ask herself in her heart, letting Lin Ran come to help her get rid of the fire poison, in a sense, she was being taken advantage of, so how could she expect others to come?

She was beginning to lose track of herself.

The sky outside was getting darker and darker, and the candles in the candlesticks were almost burned out. Mu Shishuang felt that the matter of exorcising the fire poison today might have been forgotten. After all, those two were also very busy people...

"Close the door, wash up and go to bed!"

Mu Shishuang murmured softly, with a sense of loss in her voice that she herself was not aware of. She came to the gate and was thinking about closing it when a voice suddenly reached her ears from the dark rainy night.

"Are you still waiting so late? It seems I came back just in time!"

A golden streak of light fell from the sky in front of Mu Shishuang. Lin Ran's body was wet by the rain, and his hair was also wet and stuck to his face. Looking at the somewhat embarrassed Lin Ran in front of her, Mu Shishuang felt as if a beat was stolen from her heart. She might never forget this night.

All that waiting and suffering was just to make the moment of meeting better...

.....

88. Water Lily

"I went to Qianyi's place to help, but I forgot the time... I thought I would rush back to take a look. If you were asleep, I would remove the fire poison tomorrow. But I didn't expect you were still awake. You must have waited for a long time!"

Lin Ran was beside the bathtub, preparing a liquid medicine to remove the fire poison according to Qianyi's method, occasionally chatting with Mu Shishuang behind him.

Mu Shishuang leaned against a pillar nearby, staring at Lin Ran's back with her quiet eyes. Her cold words seemed to carry a bit more resentment: "Didn't you say that we would remove the fire poison tonight?"

“That’s right…”

Lin Ran put the medicine bottle on the table beside him, turned around and looked at Mu Shishuang and said apologetically: "I was negligent this time. I won't let you wait so long next time."

Facing Lin Ran's sincere apology, Mu Shishuang could not help but turn her head aside. She did not want to meet Lin Ran's gaze. To be more precise, she was not used to Lin Ran being so nice to her. She felt that she did not deserve it. The nicer Lin Ran was to her, the more impressed she was with her previous actions. The more she felt that she was... not a human being...

"I'm just a prisoner, you don't have to apologize to me." Mu Shishuang took a deep breath and spoke calmly.

"When did I take you as a prisoner?"

Lin Ran was stunned. He looked at Mu Shishuang with strange eyes. Could it be that he had been treated well during this period of time, and this was considered a prisoner? Whose prisoner was so happy, a pig? It seemed that when he thought about it this way, pigs really looked like this.

Mu Shishuang was speechless for a moment. She didn't know how to answer and used silence to avoid such an answer.

The room suddenly became quiet again, so quiet that one could clearly hear how many drops of rain were falling outside, so quiet that one could hear the other person's rhythmic breathing, and so quiet that one could hear the passage of time...

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore!"

Lin Ran's voice became the punch that broke the "stillness of time". He pointed at the bathtub and walked out of the curtain: "I'll step aside for a while, you go in the bathtub first!"

Mu Shishuang dared to raise her head only after Lin Ran left. She had this ostrich habit of lowering her head and she didn't know when she started this. She glanced at the figure outside the curtain. Under the dim yellow light in the room, she could see a dark shadow swaying there.

She walked lightly to the clothes rack and placed all her clothes neatly on the rack. When her fingertips fell on her underwear, she hesitated for a few moments, but she finally put it on the clothes rack.

The yellowish candlelight and the jade-like, lustrous whiteness are like the contrast between the light of fireflies and the bright moon. The perfect touch of pink adds youthful vitality to the whiteness.

She is not plump, but she is definitely not skinny.

She is tall and cold, like a flower on a snowy peak, but she is also a dandelion that has lost its branches and leaves, drifting in the wind, wandering in confusion.

She pressed her bare feet against the ground, and she seemed to be able to hear the sound of their friction. When her feet lightly rubbed against the calm water, she seemed to hear the soft water's cry.

"thump!"

Roushui's cry of pain drowned out the heavy rain outside at that moment and reached Lin Ran's ears very clearly. He knew that Mu Shishuang had already entered the bathtub. He took out a booklet, which recorded many relevant matters about expelling the fire poison.

Even though he had become familiar with the process several times, he still had to strictly follow the steps in the booklet for safety reasons.

Lin Ran saw the scene in front of him after he stepped through the curtain. There were clothes on the shelf, and a person was soaking in the bathtub filled with emerald green and brown liquid. It was very simple...

Lin Ran took out an ice-blue pill and handed it to Mu Shishuang. He lowered his head to glance at the booklet, and after Mu Shishuang took the pill, he immediately started the next step...

As a result, he felt a slight warm and wet feeling at his fingertips, which made Lin Ran look up. He happened to see that Mu Shishuang accidentally touched his fingers while swallowing the pill.

Lin Ran had only seen this action on a slutty fox before, but he didn't expect that there would be another person here today.

But unlike that slutty vixen who did it on purpose, Lin Ran would rather believe that Mu Shishuang did it unintentionally. This woman's hatred for him was extremely deep, and if she really wanted to take action, she would probably bite off his fingers.

Lin Ran withdrew his hand and came behind Mu Shishuang. He gathered spiritual power at his fingertips and penetrated into Mu Shishuang's body, accelerating the effect of the medicine. Frost began to form on Mu Shishuang's body.

Lin Ran's spiritual power also activated the medicine in the bathtub. The emerald green medicine gradually turned brown, and the medicine became boiling hot. Bubbles appeared, and white mist rose.

The process of expelling the fire poison officially began. The next step was to concentrate and expel the scarlet and smelly fire poison from Mu Shishuang's body over and over again until the medicine liquid became clear.

But Lin Ran does not have heavenly fire, so he can only rely on his strong spiritual power to stimulate the medicine and eliminate the fire poison. It would be more laborious for him to eliminate the fire poison than for Wen Qianyi.

But there is no other way. The accumulated fire poison must be cleared as soon as possible to avoid any impact on Mu Shi's double bones. Qianyi is busy recently, so Lin Ran has to force the issue.

During the treatment, Mu Shishuang just closed her eyes and endured the pain. Occasionally she opened her eyes to look at Lin Ran, and then closed her eyes again.

After the medicine was completely consumed, Lin Ran quickly withdrew his hand and sat down on a chair beside him, gasping for breath. He took the towel that had been placed aside and wiped the sweat off his face. His shirt was soaked. The delicate control of soul power was really not a job for a human being.

Seeing Lin Ran like this, Mu Shishuang felt a little sorry for him. She couldn't help but ask, "Are you...are you okay?"

Lin Ran rolled his eyes at Mu Shishuang and said sarcastically, "Why does a prisoner care so much about his master?"

But after saying this, Lin Ran felt a little regretful. He was so tired that his brain was a little dizzy and he couldn't control his words.

He quickly observed Mu Shishuang's expression. When he saw that Mu Shishuang didn't react, he felt relieved. However, he still said, "Don't take my words to heart!"

"fine!"

Mu Shishuang shook her head. Her heart was indeed not much affected by these words. She had heard things more vicious than this. Lin Ran's attack power was also restrained at this time compared to before.

"The effect of removing the fire poison this time is quite good. The fire poison that was deeply accumulated in your body has been cleared out this time, and only a little is left. But we can't rush to remove the fire poison. Your body is still relatively weak now. We..."

After Lin Ran recovered, he made a summary after the treatment. He was thinking that he would not need to clear the fire poison for Mu Shishuang in the near future.

The previous cleansing was too harsh. The next step should be to strengthen the foundation and replenish the vital energy. When the vital energy is almost restored, then carry out the final cleansing of the fire poison.

"I'll do whatever you say. I don't care!"

Mu Shishuang nodded. She didn't want to stay in the bathtub any longer, so she stood up...

"Wow!"

Just then, a purple-white flash of lightning flashed across the sky, instantly illuminating the dim room, allowing Lin Ran to see what a lotus emerging from the water was as soon as he looked up.

No matter how he looked at Mu Shishuang before, Lin Ran was calm. Perhaps it was because Mu Shishuang was either unconscious or had been poisoned by fire. His face was either as red as a cooked shrimp, or as black as an eggplant, or as purple-black as dark purple.

But now this fleeting scene appeared before his eyes, and his heartbeat was stolen by this beautiful scene. After being stunned for a long time, Lin Ran quickly turned his head to the side and said anxiously: "Why don't you even put on that... anything today!"

"uncomfortable!"

Mu Shishuang responded indifferently. She climbed out of the bathtub wetly and prepared to walk to the shelf to get a towel to wipe herself.

"Hey, if you feel uncomfortable, you can..."

Lin Ran was just thinking about turning back to teach his enemy a lesson, but he saw a scene that shocked him greatly, and then... he escaped from the side hall, stood by the window alone and pushed it open, letting the cool breeze outside blow in to sober himself up.

But no matter what, a thought kept popping up in his mind and he couldn't suppress it no matter how hard he tried.

"How come both sisters are little white tigers!"

……

When Mu Shishuang came out dressed, she could no longer see Lin Ran. She didn't expect that she could scare Lin Ran away with just this appearance.

Thinking of Lin Ran's eyes at that time, Mu Shishuang couldn't help but lower her head. Unfortunately, she could only see the clothes on her chest. She couldn't help but pat her lower abdomen with her little hands, thinking of some sister plots she had seen in those storybooks.

She guessed... Lin Ran must have been thinking of her and her sister just now?
