Time Travel: I'm a Flower Thief

Chapter 202 Absence Makes the Heart Blossom

Although Xie Xiaoyi did not have the equipment to weigh the medicinal liquid, he had already reached the Starry Sky Profound Realm.

His divine sense had long been refined to a point of extreme precision, allowing him to control the dosage of medicine with far greater accuracy than any ordinary tool.

So he used his divine sense to carefully sense the liquid and felt that the injected liquid was about one milliliter, and immediately stopped.

He remained cautious at all times.

Because he was just a time traveler, not an omniscient person, and certainly not a real doctor, he had no idea exactly what dosage an adult should take.

Therefore, I dared not inject too much, and only dared to cautiously and tentatively push the liquid into the container.

Even if one milliliter isn't precise, it certainly won't cause any problems due to overdose, and it will allow the medication to take effect in the body first.

......

After everything was over, Xie Xiaoyi evaporated the excess medicine with his true energy, then let out a long sigh of relief:

"It's over. Now let's see how effective the medicine is!"

Hua Lingshu, who was standing to the side, was already deeply shaken. He stepped forward, his voice filled with disbelief:

"Junior brother, your method of treating illness by directly guiding medicine into the meridians with true qi is something I have never heard of before. Where did you learn it?"

Xie Xiaoyi looked at Hua Lingshu's inquiring expression and sighed inwardly—

It's unbelievable that this senior disciple is so obsessed with medicine.

But how do I explain Western medical theories to him?

He paused for a moment, then explained, "Senior Brother, my technique actually involves directly introducing the medicine into the veins."

Once the medicinal liquid enters the meridians, it can instantly circulate throughout the body via the bloodstream, and its effects take effect much faster than decoctions or external applications. This is the underlying principle.

After listening, Hua Lingshu pondered for a moment and felt that although Xie Xiaoyi's explanation was novel and profound, it was clear and reasonable upon closer examination, and he nodded unconsciously.

"This method of saving lives is good, but without your medical technique of guiding medicine into the meridians, even if others know the principle, they certainly cannot perform it."

Xie Xiaoyi smiled and nodded slightly: "That technique itself is not a medical skill, but rather the internal energy cultivation of a martial artist."

Hua Lingchu chuckled and waved his hand, "Then I can only look up to him from afar."

"I can delve into medicine to some extent, but when it comes to martial arts, I'm a complete novice."

Hua Suwen chuckled upon hearing this, "Senior Brother, didn't you once tell me that a doctor's heart is benevolent and a martial artist's heart is sharp—they're the same thing?"

Hua Lingshu smiled knowingly after hearing this.

......

As evening approached, Hua Suwen had already prepared hot meals, and the group ate a simple dinner.

Seeing that Mu Pingting's spirits were relatively stable, Xie Xiaoyi felt somewhat relieved.

Hua Suwen brewed another medicinal soup and personally fed it to her, while Hua Lingshu gently pricked acupoints with calming needles. Before long, Mu Pingting slowly fell asleep.

Seeing that Mu Pingting's breathing gradually became steady and she fell into a deep sleep, Hua Lingshu put away the needles and quietly retreated to the side.

Hua Suwen gazed at Xie Xiaoyi's tired profile, her heart fluttering with longing. She whispered:

"Junior brother, you must be tired after a long day. Let me take you to your old room to rest."

Xie Xiaoyi nodded, said nothing more, and turned to walk towards the room where he used to live.

As soon as he pushed open the door, he froze on the spot.

Nothing in the house had changed. The arrangement of the tables and chairs, and the furnishings in the corners, were exactly the same as when he used to live there, and it was spotless and immaculate.

Xie Xiaoyi turned around and looked at Hua Suwen, who had followed him in: "Senior Sister..."

Hua Suwen smiled gently at his surprised expression: "Actually, I come over every day to clean for you, just in case you come back one day and don't feel comfortable living here."

Xie Xiaoyi turned around, his fingers gently tracing every familiar spot; everything was so clean it was as if he had never left.

Hua Suwen stood right behind him, staring intently at his tall, straight back, her heart pounding.

The longing she had accumulated over countless days and nights could no longer be suppressed. She let out a soft moan, her steps trembled slightly, and she hugged him tightly from behind.

She wrapped her arms around Xie Xiaoyi's waist, pressed her cheek against his back, and said in a soft, hot voice, "Junior brother... I... I missed you."

Xie Xiaoyi stiffened, clearly feeling two soft, rounded mounds pressed against his back, warm and elastic.

He smiled, but perhaps afraid that his senior brother would hear, he lowered his voice and said, "Senior sister, you've grown up in less than a year."

Hua Suwen was taken aback, and, still somewhat confused, leaned against his back and whispered, "I...I haven't grown taller, have I?"

Xie Xiaoyi turned around, took a light breath, and said meaningfully, "I wasn't talking about your height."

Not height?

Where is that?

Hua Suwen thought for a moment and suddenly realized that he was indeed too old, but only her junior brother would say something so blunt.

She was both embarrassed and ashamed, and whispered angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about... You're getting more and more indecent."

Xie Xiaoyi looked at her blushing face, reached out and gently lifted her chin, and without the slightest hesitation, lowered his head and kissed her fiercely.

Hua Suwen's body went limp, and she clung tightly to his back with both hands, responding on tiptoe.

Xie Xiaoyi kissed her tenderly, one hand still gently supporting her chin, the other hand flicking his sleeve, silently releasing a gentle stream of true energy.

The door clicked shut and locked itself.

He never let go of the kiss, and with a quick movement, he swept Hua Suwen, who had gone limp like a pool of spring water, into his arms.

Hua Suwen leaned against him, her lips constantly being "coerced," and could only let him hold her as they walked step by step toward the bed.

......

Early in the morning, before dawn, Hua Suwen woke up first.

She gently nudged Xie Xiaoyi, who was still fast asleep: "Junior brother, I have to go back to my room. If it gets any later and senior brother sees me... I'll be so embarrassed."

She had just straightened her clothes and stood up when Xie Xiaoyi grabbed her wrist and gently pulled her back onto the bed.

"Senior sister, they say absence makes the heart grow fonder, please stay with me a little longer!"

Absence makes the heart grow fonder?

That makes a lot of sense, but it's too blunt and blatant.

Hua Suwen blushed slightly: "You always say such strange things. I really have to go, otherwise my senior brother will see me in a little while."

Xie Xiaoyi chuckled softly: "Senior sister, you haven't changed at all. You're still so easily embarrassed."

Hua Suwen raised her hand and punched his chest, but her eyes unconsciously glanced down at Xie Xiaoyi's crotch, and she muttered softly:

"But you've changed a lot... you're not the same as before at all."

Xie Xiaoyi said smugly, "I learned a set of three moves of the Great Dragon Kung Fu outside, and one of them is the Divine Dragon Tail Swing, which is really different."

Hua Suwen silently recited the name of the martial art in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Her cheeks suddenly turned bright red.

She was both embarrassed and annoyed, and gently pushed Xie Xiaoyi away: "You only learn bad things and not good ones! I'm ignoring you!"

After saying that, he hurriedly got up and slipped out.
