Venerated Venomous Consort
chapter-1670

The snowflakes floated lightly in the air and fell gently on the petals of the plum flowers. The distinctive colors set each other off, making the reds more delightfully charming and the whites even more enchanting. The clusters of red flowers looked even more attractive in the night-light with the touch of white snow.

Gu Xijiu was not in the mood to enjoy the perfectly scenic view of red plum flowers in the snow. The pain was too much for her to bear.

"Are you on your period?" DI Fuyi held onto her wrist tightly to read her pulse.

"None of your business!" His hands were warm, but she was somewhat irritated by his touch, especially now that she was already frustrated by her discomfort.

She struggled, and finally, she broke free from his grasp. Groggily, she took a few quick steps backward and saw a green rock next to her. Without noticing if there was snow on the rock, she quickly sat on it.

Before she managed to sit, Di Fuyi was already holding her up, preventing her from sitting on the rock. "The surface of the rock is cold! You cannot suffer from the cold at the moment."

Then, he raised his arms and performed a spell to create a wizardry barrier. Within the bubble, there was a soft, fluffy wool blanket to keep her warm when she sat on it.

He took out a red pill and put it next to her mouth. "Take the pill."

Instinctively, Gu Xijiu was afraid of all the pills that were given by him. She turned her head around to avoid his hand. "I… I have my own pills."

She held on firmly despite the extreme pain and searched for the pills in her storage bag. She found one pale red pill and swallowed it.

The pill was supposed to make her warm. The evil effects of the cold must have affected her when she was in the underground waterway, which had further worsened her menstrual pain.

She wanted to meditate, but the extreme pain distracted her. She could not even sit well.

Her fingers were trembling when she wanted to perform the spell.

Di Fuyi grabbed her hands tightly and said, "Sit well so that I can ease your pain."

Gu Xijiu was still struggling to keep her distance.

"As I said, we are now a team, so I cannot disregard the pain that you are suffering. I mean no harm," Di Fuyi explained.

Sweat broke out on her forehead, but her eyes were shining brightly, for she knew what she was doing. She took a deep breath to calm herself down. "Thank you. You can continue the search for yourself. Leave me alone."

Di Fuyi was capable enough to continue the search on his own. It was unnecessary to drag Gu Xijiu along. She really did not want to work alongside him anyway. Also, she refused to have any physical contact with him.

Without further ado, Di Fuyi pointed and sealed her acupuncture point to calm her down.

Then, he took her hands and sat her down face to face. Their palms were in touch to connect the flow of his spiritual power into her body. His spiritual power slowly entered her circulation and reached out to her abdomen.

The internals of her abdomen was as cold as ice. Her organs were cramping in pain. His spiritual power was a stream of warmth to cure this effect. It entered her abdomen and started to demonstrate its warming effects.

Soon, the cramps around her abdomen started to ease and gradually disappeared. A few moments later, Di Fuyi finally let go of her hand and removed the seal on her acupuncture point. "How are you feeling now?" He asked.

"I am feeling better. Thank you."

Gu Xijiu heaved a gentle sigh of relief and rose. As the pain had been going on for too long, her body was still weak. She quickly moved around to exercise her cramped muscles.

Di Fuyi continued to observe her pale face. "How long have you been in pain? Why didn't you say anything earlier?"

Gu Xijiu shook her head firmly. "There is no need."

"There is no need? Should we wait until you had fainted to make it sound more necessary?"

Gu Xijiu looked at him fixedly. She continued with a half-smile, "Are you concerned with my wellbeing?"

Di Fuyi disregarded her glare and said nonchalantly, "You are overthinking. As I said, we are now a team. We are doing this for the same goal."
