101 The Talk 2 (2/2)

”Okay.” Yao Ying answered.

Yao Ying was going to reach out for Yao Ling and hug her when he felt a massive headache once again. He clutched his head tightly... this headache was two times more severe than before. Yao Ying groaned in pain, making Yao Ling felt worried. Yao Ying thought to himself, 'I haven't used the pity card, but a headache really comes!' Yao Ying actually wanted to pretend to get a headache, but his plan was ruined by the real one. Was this called 'karma'?

”Ying... are you okay?” She frantically went to Yao Ying and massaged his temple with the special technique that Mother Jiu Lan taught her. Her hands moved precisely to the spot where Yao Ying felt the pain and it eased his pain tremendously.

”Thank you, Ling-er. I feel so much better,” Yao Ying smiled in relief, however his face was paler than usual.

”Didn't you say that the poison has no effect on you?”

”Yes. But after drank the poison, I kept trying to think and remember about the past. It made the headache worse. Somehow I fainted because of the headache...”

”Fainted?!” Yao Ling frowned and berated him, ”You need to rest, but you still ran around the whole day.” She frowned to herself. Haish! It seemed like she couldn't get angry at him. He actually didn't do anything wrong and honestly told her everything that happened that day.

”En...”

”Come on, let's go to bed and rest.” Yao Ling held Yao Ying's arm lovingly and pulled him up, then led him to the bed. ”Wait for me here. I'll call Xiao Yu to let her prepare peppermint tea to soothe your headache. I also have Mother Jiu Lan's recipe of medicinal peppermint oil and I will apply it for you.”

Yao Ying murmured his agreement. Although the pain had eased a lot, it still made his sight slightly blurry. When Xiao Yu came with the tea, Yao Ling helped Yao Ying sit up and drink the tea. It indeed made him feel slightly better.

Yao Ling took a little bit of the medicinal peppermint oil and applied it on Yao Ying's forehead. Yao Ying found the smell quite pleasing and made him smile. Yao Ling gently massaged his forehead once again, trying to make her husband feel better.

Yao Ying opened his eyes and saw a mark on Yao Ling's left hand. It seemed like someone hurt her and the color had turned from white into purplish blue. Yao Ying quickly sat up and held her left hands, asked, ”What happened to your hand?”

Yao Ling looked down, feeling embarrassed. ”Nothing...”

”This is not nothing! Who dares to bully you?! Tell this husband and I will bully them back!” Yao Ying was in a rage when he knew someone hurt his wife.

Yao Ling: ”But...”

Yao Ying: ”There's no but! Tell me who did this!”

Yao Ling: ”But...”

Yao Ying: ”No but!”

Yao Ling: ”...”

She was speechless and finally decided to yell because he didn't give her any chance to explain, ”I'm the one who did this! Are you going to bully me then?” Yao Ling smiled while fluttering her eyelashes and taunting him.

”What?! Why?!” Yao Ying asked in confusion. He didn't know that her wife had the tendency to hurt herself.
