Chapter 73: Licking It

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Liu Shimei was completely oblivious to his appearance and said, “Lingyao, what do you do in the Imperial Residence every day?”

Huangfu Lingyao stared at her red lips opening and closing. After a while, she did not lick the juice back. He subconsciously licked his lips, took a strawberry, peeled off the leaves, and brought it to her mouth.

His fingers accidentally touched the corner of her lips, but the strawberry had already been stuffed into her mouth.

Liu Shimei was slightly stunned, but she accepted his good intentions.

Strictly speaking, Liu Shimei did not have much experience with men. If Huangfu Lingyao was a 20-year-old adult man, she might feel very uncomfortable and uneasy when the two of them were alone.

However, he was not as intelligent and acted like a child, so she was much more comfortable. Instead, she could accept his hugs and occasionally ask for a kiss on the forehead.

Unexpectedly, after Huangfu Lingyao fed her a strawberry, he retracted his finger and licked it. She could not accept this action!

…..
She was stunned.

Huangfu Lingyao licked the strawberry juice off his finger. When he met her eyes, he smiled foolishly and said, “Is it delicious? I’ll peel another one for you!”

He lowered his head and picked up a strawberry to peel it. He was indeed a curious child. Not only did he peel off the leaves, but he also carefully picked out the seeds on it.

The adult man’s fingers were thicker, and the strawberries were small and tender. After fumbling with it for a while, the strawberry became like mush in his hands.

“We can’t eat it anymore.” He looked at Liu Shimei dejectedly and opened his palm. There was a poor rotten strawberry in his palm.

Liu Shimei thought of Little Mute’s bald head and sighed helplessly. She accepted the fact that her ‘silly son’ was crippled and said, “It’s okay. There’s still more.”

Afraid that he would ruin the rest of the strawberries, she quickly added,”You don’t have to pick the seeds. They can be eaten.”

Only then did he give up.

After eating the strawberries, the silly dog naturally stayed at the Liang Residence for dinner. Before he left, he made a promise to Liu Shimei that he would come over and eat dinner with her every day.

Liu Shimei naturally accepted her silly son’s reasonable request.

After sending him off, she changed into her work attire for the True Medicine Hall. She left the Liang Residence’s back door and went to the courtyard that Liang Yi had found for her.

The inner city of the Capital City was the Imperial City.

The main street was basically filled with the manors of the dignitaries, but behind these manors were some relatively ‘poor’ places. It was better than the slums in the Imperial Capital, but the residents were just struggling to survive. Liang Yi built a small courtyard house in the area and placed the poisoned man there. He also hired an old woman and a long-term worker to take care of the place.

When Liu Shimei arrived, that person had just vomited all over his body and was feeling weak.

Fortunately, there were maids and long-term workers to take care of him, so it was not as smelly as it was in the True Medicine Hall.

Liu Shimei put on the mask and checked the things that he had spat out. She heaved a sigh of relief when she found that there was no blood at the moment.

She handed the medicine bag in her hand to the old woman called Granny Lan and asked her to boil the medicine. She asked the man, “My brother said that your name is Zhong Lang?”

“Yes,” the man replied. He pressed his stomach and looked like he was in pain.

Liu Shimei called for him to stretch out his hand and carefully checked his pulse.

After that, she gave him a pre-treatment statement and said, “I’ve made you some medicine. Drink it first. I’m not sure if it will work. After all, I don’t what the original composition of Colored Glass Drunk is. I can only problem like a blind cat and see if I can run into a dead mouse.”

“No worries. If you can save my life, then it’s a lucky find.” Zhong Lang sighed. “If it really doesn’t work, then forget it.”

Liu Shimei nodded and let go of his wrist.. “Did you come to the Imperial Capital to avoid trouble?”
