Days of Living with My Sister-in-Law-Chapter 242: Hold Me

"What the hell—"

Chen Xiaobei almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Under the Heavenly Sect, I am invincible!

Doesn’t that mean Jiang Hongchun’s level before getting injured was at least Heavenly Sect First Grade?

And Chen Xiaobei is currently only Earth Rank Third Grade; saying he’s worlds apart from Heavenly Sect is no exaggeration.

Auntie is awesome! Long live Auntie!

Seeing Chen Xiaobei’s shocked expression, Jiang Hongchun covered her mouth and laughed,

"Xiaobei, there’s no need to be so surprised. Looking back, in my circle, my level was just in the lower middle tier."

"Just like that person, back then, with just one sword, he was invincible across the land, but unfortunately..."

At this point, Jiang Hongchun’s eyes turned red, as if she remembered a past that was both touching and heartbreaking.

And Chen Xiaobei wasn’t stupid. Although Jiang Hongchun didn’t say it explicitly, that person was obviously his father!

The more he looked, the more Chen Xiaobei felt that Jiang Hongchun probably really liked his father, perhaps even to the point of worship.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiaobei couldn’t help but say, "Auntie, that guy..."

Jiang Hongchun interrupted, "Alright, Xiaobei, didn’t I say that once you reach the level of a Grandmaster, I’ll tell you the truth about your ancestry?"

"The most important thing for you now is to cultivate well. If I tell you about the past now, it will definitely affect your mindset, outweighing any benefit."

Chen Xiaobei nodded, "Auntie, I understand. So, shall we go upstairs now?"

"Sure!"

Jiang Hongchun was quite looking forward to the acupuncture, twisting her alluring waist as she walked into the bedroom on the second floor.

But Chen Xiaobei felt quite troubled.

Jiang Hongchun was too beautiful, her figure too enchanting. Every time he performed acupuncture on her, it felt like a form of torture, nearly driving him insane.

Yet, she was his aunt, even if not a blood relative, still an aunt!

"Dad, oh Dad, if this continues, I feel I’ll really be doing you a disservice."

Chen Xiaobei shook his big head, feeling that he was indeed too lowly for harboring such thoughts about his aunt.

Just like last time, Jiang Hongchun didn’t think much of it and lay completely exposed on the bed once inside the room.

Her delicate body was curvaceous, towering peaks firm and tender, making Chen Xiaobei’s breathing slightly heavy, as he couldn’t help but want to feel the sensation.

But how could Chen Xiaobei dare?

He hurriedly cleared his mind, took out the silver needles, and said seriously,

"Auntie, shall I start? There’s something I haven’t told you: with each session of acupuncture, the pain increases significantly. If you find it too painful, don’t hold back, just shout."

"Xiaobei, Auntie isn’t afraid, you can start."

Jiang Hongchun nodded calmly.

Despite her words, it was clear to Chen Xiaobei that her eyes were filled with a hint of fear, completely different from how she appeared during previous acupuncture sessions.

Previously, Jiang Hongchun seemed to have seen through life and death, indifferent to everything.

But ever since reuniting with Chen Xiaobei, she had completely changed.

She had become much more vulnerable, more emotional!

Yet this vulnerability and sensitivity made Jiang Hongchun seem more like a living, breathing person.

She would cry, would laugh, possessed emotions and desires.

Similarly, Chen Xiaobei’s mindset had undergone some changes.

As a doctor, he truly understood the kind of pain she was enduring. Before, when Jiang Hongchun was just Murong Xiaoyi’s master, he regarded her with a regular mindset.

But now, Jiang Hongchun was his aunt, and Chen Xiaobei genuinely felt heartache for her!

But no matter how much it hurt, he had to heal her, right?

Forcing himself to calm down, Chen Xiaobei inserted a silver needle.

"Mm, uh—"

In an instant, Jiang Hongchun’s beautiful face twisted, and she even complained,

"Damn, Xiaobei, why, why does it hurt so much?"

Chen Xiaobei quickly explained, "Auntie, the old injuries in your body have gone untreated for years, damaging the surrounding meridians. When these damaged meridians are activated by the Heavenly Fire Acupuncture, they become active, which is why it hurts so much, plus—"

Chen Xiaobei was almost in tears with concern, saying, "This is only the first needle, there are twelve more to go, with each needle feeling twice as painful as the last!"

"What...?"

Jiang Hongchun’s face turned pale, genuinely afraid.

But her eyes were unusually firm as she gritted her teeth and said, "It’s okay, Xiaobei, go ahead. Auntie must regain her rank to be your strongest support until you fully grow up!"

"Go on!"

With those words, Jiang Hongchun clenched her delicate fist, ready to brace herself.

Chen Xiaobei’s heart shattered, silently vowing to grow stronger quickly to avenge the people who hurt his aunt years ago.

What a great woman, and those bastards dared to hurt her?

They ought to be killed!

Clearing his mind of distractions, Chen Xiaobei continued with the acupuncture.

Soon, he inserted the second needle, the third one...

Until finishing the thirteenth needle, his aunt on the bed was almost unrecognizable from the torment.

"Ahhhh! Xiaobei, I’m in so much pain!"

"No, I can’t take it anymore, please, just kill me!"

"No, I can’t die, I still have to take care of Xiaobei..."

The intense pain muddled Jiang Hongchun’s consciousness, and she began to speak nonsense.

Chen Xiaobei’s heart was nearly breaking, so he held his aunt’s pale little hand, comforting her,

"Auntie, hold on a bit longer, it will be over in half an hour!"

"Think of something peaceful, the time will pass quickly!"

"It hurts, Xiaobei, it hurts so much, I really can’t take it anymore!"

"Quick, hug me, please, just hug me!"

Jiang Hongchun, with the little consciousness she had left, looked at Chen Xiaobei’s face.

"Auntie, don’t be afraid, I’ll hug you now!"

Chen Xiaobei nodded.

Despite his aunt’s perfect body, he had no improper thoughts at the moment and naturally embraced Jiang Hongchun’s slender waist.

But before he could hold her, Chen Xiaobei felt a sudden tightness around his wrist!

Turning to look, he saw Jiang Hongchun’s once cloudy eyes suddenly become dreamy,

"Brother Xiao Yao... is it really you? Twenty years, I’ve finally seen you again!"

"Brother Xiao Yao, I miss you so much, really miss you!"

"Uh—"

Chen Xiaobei was speechless, quickly saying, "Auntie, calm down, it’s me, Xiaobei, not Brother Xiao Yao!"

Her current state was clearly a hallucination caused by the intense pain.

But Chen Xiaobei couldn’t help her, having no other solutions.

Fortunately, Jiang Hongchun didn’t make any extreme demands, only saying,

"Brother Xiao Yao, don’t leave, please, just hold me; I’m really having a hard time!"

Jiang Hongchun cried as she spoke, resembling a heartbroken young girl.

"Alright, alright."

Chen Xiaobei nodded.

After all, a hug is just a hug, Chen Xiaobei didn’t mind what Jiang Hongchun called him, just hoping the time would pass quickly.

Immediately, he embraced Jiang Hongchun’s slender waist, holding her in his arms.

Suddenly—

"Brother Xiao Yao, your embrace is so warm, after twenty years, you finally hold me!"

"You know, from the first moment I saw you, I fell for you."

"But back then, you were a rising star, and I was just an unnoticed girl in the crowd."

"But I swore I’d follow in your footsteps; little did I expect, when I finally stood before you with worthiness, you told me, you told me..."

At this point, Jiang Hongchun’s expression was indescribably distressed, like someone utterly obsessed with a love story!

"Damn, is Auntie actually a lovesick puppy?"

Chen Xiaobei thought to himself.
