Travel through Teyvat and spend your life with Linghua

Chapter 249 Be honest

Linghua snuggled in Xinyang's arms: "Yeah, I got it. I'll be fine after a good sleep. You should also take care of yourself and don't get too tired."

Xinyang smiled and nodded, then kissed Linghua on the forehead gently: "Don't worry, I will take good care of myself and will always be with you. Just sleep peacefully, you will definitely wake up refreshed."

Linghua said "hmm" obediently and slowly closed her eyes.

He waited until Linghua began to snore softly before carefully lowering her from his embrace. He pulled the blanket up and gently tucked it around her neck to protect her from a cold. Then, he tiptoed to the bathroom, soaked a towel, wrung it dry, and gently placed it on Linghua's forehead.

After finishing all this, Xinyang slowly left the bedroom and returned to the bathroom to clean up the dirty clothes that had accumulated over the past few days.

Xinyang just started washing clothes when she noticed something wrong. She saw several white and black silk threads on top of the pile of clothes.

Xinyang's face flushed slightly as she gently twisted the stockings with her fingertips, her thoughts drifting away. In her memory, Linghua was always dignified and elegant, with meticulous attention to detail in her wardrobe. Even in her presence, she rarely wore stockings. So, where did these stockings come from?

Xinyang unconsciously associated this with Linghua's abnormal behavior in the past few days.

The more Xinyang thought about it, the more she felt there must be something fishy going on. Linghua had always been reserved and reserved, always dignified and self-possessed in public, rarely actively displaying affection. But lately, she had suddenly become assertive, as if on cue.

Also, Linghua asked Qianzhi to make clothes for her master, which was an ordinary thing, but the number of times she went out increased inexplicably. According to Chunxiang Yao Ying'er's description, Linghua seemed to get along well with Ying'er.

In addition, this morning, Linghua said she was going to look at clothes, but actually she was shopping in the mall with Xiaoli, and she was so mysterious that she didn't let her see what she bought.

And with what just happened, my intuition tells me that Linghua should be preparing something closely related to me.

As Xinyang thought about it, her washing movements gradually slowed down, and the corners of her mouth curled up harder than AK. In her mind, she had already pictured Linghua wearing these stockings and the clothes she had modified.

After finishing the housework and hanging the clothes, Xinyang looked at the time and saw that it was still early, so he decided to buy some food to give Linghua a good nourishment in the evening.

Xinyang tiptoed out the door, mentally planning a dinner menu as she went. Linghua had always preferred light, fresh food, so Xinyang planned to make a crucian carp and tofu soup. The crucian carp's tender flesh made a rich, fragrant broth, and paired with the soft tofu, it was a nutritious and delicious treat, perfect for ailing Linghua's health.

Arriving at the market, the bustling atmosphere hit me. Xinyang expertly walked to a familiar fish stall and carefully selected a lively crucian carp. Its scales gleamed silvery white, its gills bright red, a stark reminder of its freshness. From the nearby vegetable stall, she selected a few blocks of delicate, jade-white tofu, a handful of emerald green onions, and several plump stalks of ginger.

On the way home, Xinyang passed by Bailu Shuanghua and went in to take a look. As soon as he entered the door, Xianyun told him that Shuili also had a fever.

Xinyang scratched his head: "Why is she also having a fever? How is she now? Has she taken any medicine?"

Xianyun nodded. "I just asked Mo Yu to go to Bubu Lu and get some medicine for Xiaoli. She drank it and fell asleep. You said 'also' just now. Could it be that Linghua has a fever too?"

"It's just a low-grade fever. I just went out and bought a fish to give Linghua some tonic tonight." Xinyang took the fish in his hand and shook it in front of Xianyun.

Xianyun nodded with satisfaction: "She's quite caring. Let's go check on Xiaoli. She kept complaining when she was taking the medicine. I don't know if she's awake yet."

Xinyang came to Shuili's resting room and pushed open the door. Shuili in the room was eating snacks. When she saw Xinyang coming, a trace of panic flashed across her face, like a child who was caught stealing food. She quickly hid the snacks under the quilt.

Xinyang was a bit amused and confused: "Didn't they say the medicine was bitter? How come you still have the mind to eat snacks?"

Shui Li smiled sheepishly: "Brother Xinyang, now that you're here, don't get me wrong. I'm just feeling really miserable, so I wanted to eat some snacks to calm my nerves."

Xinyang walked to the bed, reached out to touch Shuili's forehead, and took out the snacks that Shuili had just hidden under the quilt.

"It seems the medicine is working well. The fever has gone away. It turned out to be potato chips. Let me have some too."

After saying that, without waiting for Shuili's reply, Xinyang grabbed a handful of potato chips and stuffed them into his mouth.

Shuili grabbed the potato chips with a distressed look on her face: "Brother Xinyang is really not impatient. He even snatched the snacks from a patient like me."

Xin Yang laughed heartily at Shui Li's protective look. "Okay, okay, I won't snatch it anymore. I see how distressed you must be. You look so energetic. It seems you've recovered well."

Shuili rolled her eyes at Xinyang and muttered softly, "Humph, this was bought for me by my sister-in-law, and you just ate it like that."

Xinyang put away his smile: "I want to ask you something. Tell me the truth and I will treat you to a big dinner tonight." After saying that, he deliberately let Shuili look at the fish in his hand.

When Shuili heard there was a feast, her eyes lit up immediately: "You seem so sincere. Tell me, what's the matter? I'll tell you everything I know."

"What have you and your sister-in-law done these days? Tell me in detail."

"No, I promised my sister-in-law not to tell you, unless..."

Without waiting for Shuili to finish speaking, Xinyang grabbed another handful of potato chips and was about to put them into his mouth.

Shuili got anxious when she saw this and held Xinyang's hand: "I'm telling you, I'm telling you, put it down."

Xin Yang then slowly put down his hand, with a triumphant smile on his face: "You still want to negotiate terms with me? Tell me now."

Shui Li sighed helplessly, "Sister-in-law has been preparing a surprise for you these past few days. During her free time at Chunxiang Kiln, Ying'er took the initiative to chat with us. You know what topics Ying'er often talks about. In short, influenced by her, sister-in-law wanted to change her style and give you something new to try."

Xinyang raised an eyebrow, motioning Shuili to continue. Shuili continued, "Then my sister-in-law decided to buy the outfit Ying'er had mentioned. She went to the mall with me this morning to buy clothes, but they didn't sell them there. Plus, Sister Qianzhi had left a few days ago, so my sister-in-law decided to buy a few similar outfits first and then have them tailored herself."

"My sister-in-law even told me not to tell you because she has a big surprise for you."
