Chapter 254: Chapter 254: As long as it is useful to her, it’s fine

Tong Sanlang smeared his saliva around the wound, feeling somewhat awkward about this unusual act. He uncomfortably rubbed his nose. “Let’s see.”

Qiao Xiaomai gave him a speechless look. “So, your saliva can make my wound scab in an instant.”

No need to wait, really.

At her words, Tong Sanlang looked down at the wound.

Another bead of blood oozed out.

Qiao Xiaomai raised an eyebrow, “So my saliva doesn’t work on your wound?”

Tong Sanlang was silent for a moment before replying, “Correct.”

“That’s strange then. My saliva doesn’t work on my wound, it doesn’t work on yours either. Your saliva doesn’t work on your wound, but it works wonders for mine.” Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

So what was going on?

“It seems like that so far.” Tong Sanlang commented.

Qiao Xiaomai,”. So, if I get hurt in the future, I can come to you?”

So that was the conclusion of their little experiment?

“It’s better not to get hurt.”

Qiao Xiaomai”.. ”

She glanced back at Tong Sanlang’s arm, “Or should I lick your wound? Maybe licking it will work.”

“No need!” Tong Sanlang hastily retreated two steps, “I’m dirty, I haven’t bathed for several days.”

Qiao Xiaomai”.. ”

She didn’t even care that he had applied his saliva to her wound.

Tong Sanlang, really.

“There’s no need, let’s go back, it’s getting late. Your father and Dami might start worrying.” Tong Sanlang added.

“You’re just going to leave a mystery like this unsolved?” Qiao Xiaomai looked at him, puzzled.

“It’s clear enough. My saliva works on your wounds.”

So what if her saliva worked on his wounds?

In the end, they weren’t on the same path.

If he were to get hurt someday, he would never put her in danger by seeking her out.

So, this test result didn’t really matter to him.

As long as he was useful to Qiao Xiaomai, that’s all that mattered.

Reassuring himself with this thought, he took a deep breath, gesturing towards the way they had come, “Let’s go back. It’s really late. We should get up early tomorrow, let’s rest.”

Qiao Xiaomai,”. You’re not taking yourself seriously enough, right? Instant

healing is so important for you.”

What kind of Master of Tingfeng Pavilion doesn’t grasp hold of such a lifesaving measure?

“I possess high martial arts skills. I’ll be fine.”

Qiao Xiaomai”.. ”

“Seriously, let’s go back. You can walk up front and 1’11 follow you.” Tong Sanlang indicated the direction back as he spoke.

Qiao Xiaomai”.. ”

She snorted, blowing out the lantern, “Here.”

She forced the lantern back into Tong Sanlang’s hands and started walking back.

Tong Sanlang followed behind her, not saying a word.

Neither of them spoke again.

When Qiao Xiaomai returned home, Qiao Changshun and Qiao Dami were sitting in the courtyard, roasting ears of wheat.

The wheat was quite juicy when it was almost ready and it was delicious when roasted over the fire.

They used to be poor and couldn’t afford to eat this way, but now they had no worries.

“Ah, sister, you’re back!” Qiao Dami hadn’t seen her all day and rushed over when she saw her.

“I’m back.”

“Did you come back by yourself? Didn’t Sanlang escort you?” Qiao Changshun poked his head out to check the doorway.

“He went home.”

“Why didn’t he come in for a while?” Qiao Changshun expressed some regret, then waved her over, “Come, try this roast wheat. It’s really good.”

“You guys can enjoy it. I’m a bit tired, I want to sleep.” She ruffled Qiao Dami’s hair affectionately and headed towards the kitchen for a quick wash before her sleep.

Tong Sanlang really had issues with his head.

How could he not be curious about such an important thing?

Having such an ability was so important, especially when involved in shady business where the chances of getting hurt were high. If he indeed discovered that her saliva was useful to him, he could come to her in times of need.

She wouldn’t mind helping him…

Wait, wait!

She suddenly stopped in her tracks, stunned.

If Tong Sanlang’s evil plans genuinely led to him being severely injured, what would she do if he came to her?

There was no answer to this question.

She quickly replayed the day’s events in her head. She offered her arm to Tong Sanlang to lick, even leaned in to try and lick Tong Sanlang’s wound.

Yet, she had just coldly refused him previously. What was with her changes of attitude?

Her behaviour was really…

Slutty!
