bathroom.
Bai Yue sat on the edge of the bathtub, reached out and splashed some water, scooped up some ice fragments, poked Froststar's head which was floating on the surface, and teased:
"You're really cold-blooded. You froze this little bit of hot water in no time. How did you take a bath back in Ursus?"
Gululu~
Froststar kept her mouth submerged in the water, silently blowing bubbles, completely ignoring him.
She was completely speechless. Good heavens, how could this person be so clueless? He didn't even go out to take a shower. What's so interesting about this tattered body?
Seeing that she was ignoring him, Bai Yue stood up with a bored expression, walked to the hot water tap, turned it on, picked up the porcelain bottle on the table next to him, poured a few pills the size of wutong seeds into his palm, and handed them to her:
"Here, take the medicine. That should bring your temperature back to normal."
Froststar felt the strange sensation brought by the hot water on her feet, and couldn't help but curl her toes, feeling a bit curious.
In the past, she was completely unable to come into contact with hot water. Just as she could frostbite others, such things could also burn her. Things that ordinary people could easily do, she had to take a long detour to barely accomplish.
The immense power did not bring her any convenience in life; on the contrary, it made her life quite miserable and difficult.
This was all thanks to him... Froststar looked up at him, reaching out from the water to take the pill.
Bai Yue dodged her hand, then reached out to her face, smiling, and said, "Ah, open your mouth, I'll feed you."
"..." Froststar wanted to punch him, but unfortunately, she was restrained by the Holy Mark and could not hit him. She could only open her mouth helplessly, but she did not make an embarrassing "ah" sound.
"Good girl!" Bai Yue gently put the pills into her mouth one by one, and then observed the progress bar on her body.
[Originium Infection Progress: 31.96%, Superior Ability Resonance Detected, Infection Progress Continues to Decrease...]
Bai Yue nodded in satisfaction. Not bad, the new drug is indeed useful.
Froststar felt a slight warmth in her body and asked in surprise, "What medicine did you give me? Why do I feel a little...warm?"
Bai Yue chuckled lightly, "Hehe, Miss Froststar, is my hair really that warm?"
?
Froststar turned around, puzzled, and asked, "Your hair?"
"Okay." Bai Yue nodded: "The main ingredient of this medicine is my hair. Because you can't understand it, it can reduce the Originium infection in your body and slowly restore your body's various functions."
Upon hearing that his hair was the main ingredient, Frostnova didn't seem to mind, but instead asked curiously, "I'm not very well-educated, are you kidding me? Your hair can cure Oripathy?"
"It's guaranteed!" Bai Yue patted her chest confidently, then added, "But because this medicine needs to be used with the Holy Mark, it's only effective for you at the moment. But that's fine too, I don't have that much hair to cut off for medicine."
"It only works on me?" Froststar's heart skipped a beat, and a strange emotion welled up inside her.
Just now, why could he look at my tattered body without any disgust? He dared to touch my body, which is a nightmare that everyone avoids like the plague.
He was so reckless that it made one wonder if he was even a doctor; he was a complete idiot!
Not long after taking the pill, Froststar suddenly felt a warm current surging from her lower abdomen, flowing to her limbs and bones, as if her cold limbs had regained warmth.
"..."
She looked down at the seemingly sacred but actually awkwardly positioned mark on her abdomen, and touched it with her fingertips, only to feel a burning sensation.
Bai Yue watched her movements and asked, "Has the medicine taken effect?"
"Mm." Froststar nodded slightly.
Bai Yue picked up a notebook from the side: "Tell me how you feel right now, and I'll write it down so I can adjust the drug's ingredients next time."
Froststar suddenly realized why she had followed him into the bathroom; she had been waiting here all along.
Tsk, I thought he was just desperate for food.
Froststar couldn't tell whether she felt relieved or disappointed, but she still honestly expressed her current thoughts: "............"
Bai Yue quickly finished taking notes, asked a few more questions, then stood up, yawned, glanced at her body still wearing underwear in the water, and said with amusement:
"Alright, I'm going out now. Hurry up and take off your clothes and wash up; you look uncomfortable. Then, while the medicine is still working, take a good hot bath and wash yourself thoroughly, otherwise I won't let you go to bed later."
Froststar didn't care. What did it matter if they slept together or not? With so many Originium on her, would he dare to sleep with her?
.........
bedroom.
Froststar tilted her head blankly: "What did you say? Can you say it again? I didn't hear you."
Bai Yue leaned against the headboard, covered her mouth and yawned, patting the fluffy blanket beside her: "I asked you to come and sleep here, what's so hard to understand?"
No, that's hard to understand!
Faced with this godlike invitation, Frostnova couldn't hold back and reminded her, "Can't you see all the Originium on me? If you're not careful, you could get infected."
"Ah, you said this."
Bai Yue nodded sleepily, then yawned lightly: "Didn't I tell you? I have a special constitution, and Originium can't infect me. Isn't that amazing?"
Then he patted the blanket and urged, "Hurry up and get on, don't wait for my orders. Don't even think about running away while I'm sleeping!"
Froststar's eyes were blank. "Eh... so this brat is immune to Oripathy. Now everything makes sense."
Why did he dare to touch me so intimately? Why wasn't he afraid of the Originium on my body? Why did he dare to let me wash myself clean and go to bed with him?
Suka, so this brat was completely fearless! What about how I almost got moved just now? Did that mean I'm easily moved?!
Seeing her lost in thought, Bai Yue patted the blanket softly, half-closed her eyes, and murmured, "It's late, *come to sleep*."
Froststar pouted, glared at him, and helplessly walked to the bedside, lifted the covers, and lay down.
Damn it, I didn't want this to happen, it's all his fault!
.........
In the morning, the sky is bright.
Froststar's good biological clock made her open her eyes, looking at the unfamiliar ceiling in front of her with a sense of confusion. "Where am I?"
She instinctively tried to get up.
But then she suddenly noticed something soft and light on her arm. She turned her head and saw a sweet sleeping face.
He's so cute.
Froststar had only one thought in her mind, but after a moment of stunned silence, she came to her senses and looked at the empty seat next to him, feeling somewhat speechless. Why was he so restless while sleeping?
She reached out to push his head away.
But the moment her hand touched his face, she hesitated, looking at her hand with some confusion. Why was it warm?
But soon, her attention turned to Bai Yue, who was close to her like a small stove, and she began to guess. Although it was a bit unbelievable, the truth was probably that he was the one who warmed her up.
This is truly... She never imagined that the winter chill within her could dissipate in this way.
Well... I'll lie down for a while longer.
However, she wasn't greedy for the warmth; she just didn't want to wake up this troublesome little brat and make unreasonable demands on her.
Yes, that's right, that's exactly it!

Jingle Bell--
"Hmm~" Bai Yue's eyebrows trembled slightly, but she did not open her eyes. She simply reached out her hand to the source of the sound and began to explore.
Froststar's lips twitched as she looked at the snow-white arm that stretched across her body, and the face that was getting closer and closer to her neck, its warm breath almost touching her face.
She turned her head, reached for the incessantly ringing phone, and slapped it directly into his hand.
Snapped!
The phone was cold, yet it felt a bit forceful.
Bai Yue immediately opened his eyes, looking at the restrained white rabbit in front of him with a puzzled expression. Wait, why doesn't this seem to be Chen Chen? Then he looked up and, upon seeing the Originium that had suddenly appeared around her neck, he realized what was happening.
So he rolled around on the bed twice, and stopped when he was sure he could see her face clearly.
He yawned first, then turned off the alarm and casually slapped his phone onto the pillow. Only then did he lazily say, "Good morning, did you sleep well last night?"
Froststar withdrew her arm, her eyes slightly narrowed, and said coldly, "Not good."
Bai Yue blinked, reached out and touched her face, which had regained some color, and said with a mischievous smile, "Don't be too stubborn, or I'll order you to tell the truth."
Froststar's lips twitched, and she turned her head to the other side, saying shyly, "I slept quite well, okay?"
Bai Yue nodded in satisfaction. In Yan Country, "okay" is the highest compliment. It's like when your mom asks you how her cooking is, and you say "okay," which basically means it's delicious. The same applies to other things!
After teasing her a little, Bai Yue turned her head to look at the slightly translucent curtains, her body twitched twice, she twisted to the side of the bed, and reached out to pull on the handmade braided rope hanging down from above.
The crystal chandelier was immediately lit, and a luxurious glow filled the entire bedroom.
Then Bai Yue silently rolled back to Shuangxing's side and stared blankly at the crystal chandelier above her head.
Feeling the warmth emanating from her, Froststar shifted uncomfortably and pursed her lips:
"Don't you have anything to do if you don't get up?"
Bai Yue snapped out of her reverie and said leisurely, "Yes, I'm busy preparing medicinal herbs, mixing potions, purchasing medicines for the free clinic, checking out the massage parlor when I have time, the sanatorium on Rhodes Island is under renovation, and I also need to take courses related to Oripathy treatment... I'm very busy."
Froststar scoffed, "Well, it's really a wonder you managed to find the time to kidnap me from the ruined city."
"Not at all," Bai Yue shook her head modestly, then turned her head and smiled, "Didn't I say yesterday that if your brothers and sisters hadn't been so weak and easily controlled by me, I wouldn't have been able to beat you?"
Froststar twitched her lips, not wanting to speak.
It is well known that when a victor says such things, it is usually not out of modesty, but rather to boast about some quality of his or hers, such as wisdom or bravery.
Bai Yue was slightly disappointed when she didn't respond. This big white rabbit wasn't giving her a chance to be sarcastic at all!
But he quickly put the thought out of his mind, tapped her cheek, and asked curiously, "By the way, I was going to ask you yesterday, have you ever taken any special drugs before?"
Froststar frowned slightly and reached out to brush his fingers away: "No, resources are scarce in the snowfields. We're not even full, let alone have any medicine."
Bai Yue was puzzled: "That shouldn't be the case. How could you have had such a severe withdrawal reaction on the spacecraft?"
"I don't know." Frostnova shook her head in confusion, and after thinking for a few seconds, she said, "Are you mistaken? You saw my body. With such severe Oripathy, it would be normal for me to die any second now, right?"
"impossible!"
When it came to matters of her own expertise, Bai Yue became anxious, immediately throwing back the covers and sitting up, patting her chest:
"Who do you think I am! I graduated from Baizhao Medical College at the age of fourteen, and at sixteen I developed the first proven effective drug for Oripathy. I dare say, in Lungmen, no one knows more about Oripathy than me!"
As he spoke, he began to play the accordion.
Froststar didn't reply, but silently reached out to cover the holy marks exposed on her belly, and pulled the blanket back over with her other hand.
Seeing her actions, Bai Yue raised an eyebrow and patted the blanket above her stomach with a grin:
"Hey, what are you shy about? We already saw it last night."
Froststar rolled her eyes at him. How could that be the same?
Yesterday I thought you were a normal person who would avoid infected people like the plague, but who knew you weren't afraid of getting infected? If you continue to be so frivolous, what if... I'll be scared!
In response to her eye roll, Bai Yue retaliated by directly rubbing her cheeks and saying dismissively, "I saved your life, you know. What's wrong with that? Don't you know what it means to repay a debt of gratitude?"
Feeling the two small hands shamelessly kneading her face, Froststar was a little annoyed and mumbled, "If you want to see, just order me. I can't disobey you anyway!"
Bai Yue shook her head and chuckled, "That's so boring. I don't like playing with dolls."
Before she could retort, Bai Yue withdrew her hand, touched the source stone on her neck, and pondered:
"My judgment can't be wrong. Assuming you're not lying and haven't taken any special medication, then according to the basic principles of judging withdrawal symptoms, the only thing that could disrupt your body's homeostasis is likely..."
Bai Yue tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Overuse of magic?"
But he immediately dismissed his own idea. "The intensity of that battle wasn't high; you should have had plenty of energy left. So, internal factors are ruled out. That leaves external factors, aside from the medication..."
“It’s just…” Bai Yue licked her lips, blinked quickly twice, and thought of a certain possibility.
Uh... really?
"What is it?" Froststar asked doubtfully, "Don't just give me half-baked answers."
Bai Yue was a little embarrassed: "It's probably...it should be...it's possible that I did it."
?
"What do you mean?"
