Chapter 216.2: Show of Conjugal Love Draws Hatred (2/2)
However, he only hated himself. He hated himself for being useless, hated his birth status, and hated the fact that he hadn’t appeared in front of her before Baili Yu had.
“I know already! Help me write a letter back and tell Dada that I’ll go back as soon as I can!“ Although Nangong Yan hated the Island Master, she didn’t dare to be rude towards him. After replying in an irritated manner, she strode out of the room with large steps and angrily went downstairs.
At this time, Baili Yu and Tang Doudou were currently in the kitchen located in the inn’s back courtyard.
Baili Yu smiled contently as he gently lifted her hair and swept his slightly cold fingers over the back of her warm neck. Tang Doudou involuntarily shivered, then heard a certain seductive yao chuckle as he asked, “Is Wife cold?”
Who would ask someone if they were cold in the middle of summer?
Tang Doudou rolled her eyes. How was it possible that he didn’t know why she shivered? She decided not to react to his pointless remark that was filled with deep meaning. As she used the handkerchief to wash away the blood on her face, she said, “Help me pat some cold water on my nape, the place where it bulges out a little!”
For some reason, her nosebleed was flowing like crazy. It was still flowing incessantly even as she wiped and showed no signs of stopping at all.
Baili Yu said ‘en’ softly and then dipped his slender fingers in water before gently patting her nape.
“Did you miss a meal? Pat harder!” Baili Yu was probably worried about hurting her if he hit too hard because his movements were so gentle it felt like a tickle. Tang Doudou was speechless.
“Isn’t this husband just worried about hurting Wife from patting too hard?” replied Baili Yu in a tone filled with grievance.
Tang Doudou said helplessly, “It’s useless if you don’t pat harder. Look, this blood isn’t stopping…”
“Wife had better go find a doctor!” Seeing that the blood wasn’t stopping, Baili Yu’s eyes became filled with worry.
“That’s too much trouble. Help me pat for a while first. If it seriously doesn’t work, then I’ll consider looking for a doctor!” When doctors were brought up, the image of those bitter black pills immediately appeared in Tang Doudou’s mind and she quickly rejected the idea while shaking her head.
“However, I’ve never heard of the fact that patting cold water on one’s nape can stop bleeding. Wonder how Wife learned about it?”
“It’s just some first-aid knowledge. It’s because there’s a large artery on the back of a person’s neck. Splashing cold water on that region can cause the artery to contract and stop blood from continuing to flow to the nasal cavity…”
Before she even finished talking about this common knowledge, she felt a chill enter the back of her neck. However, it wasn’t very strong. On the contrary, it was gentle and brief to the point it actually felt a little nice.
“This husband seriously cannot bear to hit you, but since the goal is to make the artery contract, this cold energy will probably do just as well.” Following that sensation came the sound of Baili Yu’s voice.
Tang Doudou was immediately bowled over by his intelligence. Who was it that said the ancients were obstinate and habitual people!? Look at Baili Yu, a hint was all that was needed! He was practically too smart!
But, would this method be effective?
Tang Doudou was skeptical even as she moved the handkerchief away from her nose. She was immediately stunned to find out that it really was effective!
