Chapter 365.1: Emotional Barrier (2/2)
“Whatever it is, just say it! The way you’re talking is giving me goosebumps!” Cang Baicao shuddered and hastily pushed her arms away. He had long been exposed to this girl’s ability to act like a spoiled child. It would be like he was fed water of oblivion, before he knew it, she would weasel all his secrets out of him.
“Let’s talk while walking?” However, Tang Doudou wasn’t deterred and walked over to grab his arm again while saying this affectionately.
Cang Baicao was completely helpless. He couldn’t very well push her again after all since she was pregnant. If something happened to her or the child, there was no way he could take the consequences.
“I give, I give already. Whatever it is, just say it. There’s no need to try and pour so many bowls of water of oblivion down my throat.”
Tang Doudou giggled as she walked forward while hugging his arm. As she walked, she thought about where to start. Mu Ye had noticed the moment she had gotten up. However, he just watched as she left with Cang Baicao without following.
Although he had thought about a lot, he still couldn’t make the decision to tell Tang Doudou the truth.
“Senior Cang, I want to ask if you checked the state of Baili Yu’s Hoarfrost Poison while you were restoring his memories?” After walking for quite a while, Tang Doudou finally started asking her questions.
Cang Baicao nodded. “I took a look at it. Since your relationship suddenly advanced, the Hoarfrost Poison which was supposed to fully flare up in a few months has already been forced back to its original state. From the looks of things currently, it’ll probably be a long time before it flares up again.”
Tang Doudou exclaimed in shock, “You’re saying!? The reason his poison didn’t flare up i-is… is because…”
Because they consummated their marriage? Why hadn’t she known!?
Cang Baicao nodded thoughtfully. “It seems that Baili gongzi hasn’t ever told you about this.”
“That’s right! How could he keep this from me?” If she had known that this would work, she wouldn’t have had to waste so much time worrying and trying to come up with a method to cure his poison. That wasn’t right! Tang Doudou’s eyes lit up again. “This method can’t completely cure the poison, right?”
“Naturally. If the Hoarfrost Poison was that easy to cure, it wouldn’t have stumped me for such a long time.” Senior Cang then said, “When I gave you that method before, I was thinking that the poison in both of your bodies could counteract and neutralize each other to cure both the Hoarfrost Poison and the Disseminating Tassel Fragrance. Now that I think about it, I was too naive.
“There was no way the method to curing those two poisons would be so simple.
“However, your mother, Jun Yuner, seemed to have a way to cure the poison.” When Cang Baicao suddenly brought this up, Tang Doudou frowned in surprise. However, since Mu Ye was also currently in Azure Water Valley, it wouldn’t be strange if he had told Cang Baicao about this.
“Mother planted something called a Swayflower. Mu Ye told me that the flower could cure the poison, but…” This was also something she had been puzzled the entire time about. “For some reason, although he has the method, he hadn’t volunteered to cure my poison. It’s really strange.”
Cang Baicao had already guessed that Swayflower had something to do with the Disseminating Tassel Fragrance when Mu Ye had shown it to him earlier, but this confirmed it for sure. His expression changed drastically, because he suddenly realized why Mu Ye wanted Jun Yuner’s corpse.
“Doudou, I’m afraid we’ll have to take a trip back to Cloud City in order to cure your poison!”
Why was he bringing up Cloud City all of a sudden?
Tang Doudou was confused, so she asked, “Why?”
This time, Cang Baicao didn’t answer her and just told her that she was free to walk around as long as she didn’t leave the valley. He exhorted for her to call her if she noticed anything strange, then rushed off.
