Chapter 523: Chapter 524: Let Me Do It

Chu Lian, shocked by the kiss, widened his eyes; it was Wang Xiangxiang kissing him, and in front of so many people no less. Her lips were fragrant and soft, immersing him in the sweet kiss from which he couldn’t extricate himself.

But soon, as if doused by cold water, he was thoroughly chilled. Wang Xiangxiang had been given an Aphrodisiac, which explained her behavior. Even if he wanted to kiss her, this was not the right moment.

He quickly broke free from Wang Xiangxiang’s kiss, lifted her in his arms, and with long strides, headed towards the room of Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao.

Seeing the bathing tub in the outer room, he didn’t think twice before placing Wang Xiangxiang into it. He walked over to the water tank, took the ladle resting on top, scooped up a ladle of water, and poured it directly over Wang Xiangxiang.

As he watched her in pain and an utterly disheveled state, his eyes turned red with heartache. However, he had no choice but to keep pouring water over her, ladle by ladle, because only through this could she come to her senses.

Although he could help her detoxify, he didn’t want to do so while she was not lucid—and she wouldn’t have agreed to it either.

"Yang Ming, hurry and find a doctor in town."

"Brother Chu, I’m on it." Hearing Chu Lian’s order, Yang Ming quickly harnessed the carriage and rushed to town for the doctor.

Seeing the situation, Xiaoxiao found a basin and joined Chu Lian in pouring water over Wang Xiangxiang.

Wang Xiangxiang, drenched in cold water with her eyes shut, flailed about, causing Xiaoxiao’s tears to continuously drip down.

She had been fine that morning, smiling so brightly, asking if she would go to town. In just one morning, everything changed, and now this was happening. Xiaoxiao blamed herself severely, wondering why she hadn’t stayed with her.

"Master Chu, will this really work?" Xiaoxiao asked, half in doubt, fearing that it might not be effective and they would be causing her more trouble.

She had only heard about Aphrodisiacs, never actually seen one. Could a cold bath truly extinguish the fire within?

"We have no other choice now; we must try."

Before long, the entire tub was filled, and Wang Xiangxiang got to her feet, struggling to get out. With a heavy heart, Chu Lian pressed her firmly back into the water.

He pushed her down over and over again, as Xiaoxiao wept incessantly. The usually cheery Wang Xiangxiang was now in a pitiable state.

Seeing Wang Xiangxiang exhausted from struggling, Chu Lian urgently said, "Sister-in-law, quickly prepare her clothes."

Upon hearing the words "sister-in-law," Xiaoxiao was taken aback before realizing what he meant, "Oh, okay, right."

Xiaoxiao went inside to look for clothes, and by the time she had found them, Chu Lian had already brought Wang Xiangxiang into the house. He instructed Xiaoxiao, "Sister-in-law, please help her change her clothes, and I will come in later when she is better."

"All right." Xiaoxiao hastily agreed.

Then she helped Wang Xiangxiang remove her soaking wet clothes. At this point, Wang Xiangxiang began to feel unbearably hot again, and soon was stripped bare.

After drying her off, Xiaoxiao tried to help her dress, but Wang Xiangxiang resisted no matter what. Despite a lengthy struggle, she couldn’t get the clothes on. Xiaoxiao was left sweating profusely from the exertion, wondering where Wang Xiangxiang got all that strength.

Outside, Chu Lian paced by the door, anxiously asking, "Sister-in-law, is it done yet?"

"Not yet, she refuses to get dressed." Xiaoxiao was also getting frantic, thinking what to do next.

Hearing it was still not done, Chu Lian made up his mind to enter the room, since she was destined to be his wife. "Let me do it."
