Chapter 178 (Part 1) Gu poison’s residual effects

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Inside the dream, Feng Qi Qi’s brows were smoothed, and her mouth had a small smile. Her face was charming. Looking at the little person he thought about day and night, Feng Cang smiled. He reached out and pushed away the hair on her forehead.

Feng Qi Qi was in a very deep sleep. She didn’t sense that someone was beside her. Feng Cang’s gaze went lower and fell on Feng Qi Qi’s slightly bulged belly.

Because it was hot, Feng Qi Qi only wore a thin layer of unlined garment. At this time, she was asleep on her side. Her belly looked slightly swollen. From Feng Cang’s point of view, Feng Qi Qi’s belly had a slight curvature that was neither small nor big.

When he left, she was still in shape. Now that he returned, their child had already grown up in her belly.

Feng Cang quietly went to bed and lay behind Feng Qi Qi. He reached out and hugged her from behind. His big hand enveloped her belly. His heart was full of happiness. That kind of satisfaction passed from his fingers to his heart.

“Mm…” Feng Qi Qi twisted a bit to find a comfortable position. She was asleep again. The two’s position was like two spoons sticking together. Feng Cang dropped a light kiss on Feng Qi Qi’s ear.

Having been on the road, it had been a long time since Feng Cang had closed his eyes. Now, at Feng Qi Qi’s side, all the tight emotions he had were now gone. He held his wife and child and fell asleep.

Only when Feng Qi Qi woke up did she discover that something was out of place. When she looked, a hand was on her belly.

With only one glance, Feng Qi Qi recognized this hand as Feng Cang’s. When she turned, that devilishly beautiful face of Feng Cang was behind her head. It had been a long time since she last saw Feng Cang. Feng Cang’s face showed exhaustion. There was a thin layer of stubbles on his chin.

Looking at his appearance, it had probably been a long time since he slept well. Feng Qi Qi turned carefully and looked at Feng Cang face-to-face. Her small hand stroked his chin that had become thin. Only after she touched those stubbles that pricked people, was Feng Qi Qi sure that Feng Cang was in front of her now.

So great! Feng Qi Qi chuckled. She went forward a bit. Her small mouth printed a kiss on Feng Cang’s lips.

When Feng Qi Qi’s lips were about to leave his, Feng Cang opened his eyes. That pair of devilishly beautiful eyes stared at Feng Qi Qi. That pair of eyes kept discharging many sparks, making Feng Qi Qi unable to withstand them. A while later, her face began to burn. “You’re awake. When did you return…”

While she was talking, Feng Qi Qi moved backwards. Feng Cang’s eyes were obviously full of love, and coupled with a burning desire, making Feng Qi Qi’s heart begin to beat quickly.

Feng Qi Qi kept moving backwards but was held by Feng Cang. He put her body close to his body, “Qing Qing, such a dragonfly touched the water lightly is not a kiss, yo!”

A dragonfly touches the water lightly: superficial contact

Not waiting for Feng Qi Qi to understand, that handsome face of Feng Cang zoomed in in front of Feng Qi Qi, followed by a soft and gently material enveloping her lips. At the same time, his tongue pried her rose like lips open. Feng Qi Qi already forgot what to do. Her fragrant lips initiated slightly. His tongue passed through her teeth and entangled with her fragrance.

“Mm…,” Feng Qi Qi’s whole body went soft and pasted herself in Feng Cang’s arms. His hand went into her inner clothing and climbed up along her spine. That tingling sensation began to spread along her back. Until when his hand was on her cloud (breast), did her body shook slightly.

“Cang…”

“Qing Qing, did you miss me?” Feeling the softness of the little person in his arms, Feng Cang reluctantly left her lips. “I missed you very much…”

Facing Feng Cang’s eyes that were full of affection, Feng Qi Qi’s eyes were full of spring. Her lips, because of the kiss of just now became red like blood as if, if it was touched slightly blood will drop out from it.

Feng Qi Qi didn’t speak. Feng Cang refused to stop. His fingers went up the front and teased a particular somewhere, “Tell me, Qing Qing, did you miss me?”

“Miss… Cang, don’t…It’s early in the morning…,” Feng Cang’s skilful hands made Feng Qi Qi’s small face and all the way to her neck be stained with redness. How could she not know Feng Cang’s thoughts?

“Qing Qing…” Feng Cang’s lips went to Feng Qi Qi’s ear and said his desire. “Jin Mo said that you’re stable now. We can get appropriately close. As long as we control the strength, we wouldn’t hurt the baby.”

Such loving words coming from Feng Cang’s made Feng Qi Qi’s heart beat faster. Seeing that Feng Cang want to untie her unlined garment, she quickly reached out and stopped him. “My belly is now like this…it’s not beautiful…”

It turned out that she refused because of this!

Feng Cang stopped the ‘work’ of his hand and kissed Feng Qi Qi’s forehead. “Who said my Qing Qing is ugly? My Qing Qing is the most beautiful woman! No matter what time, you’re the most beautiful! Moreover, that Qing Qing is like this now, is also because of me. I should also take responsibility!”

Feng Cang patted Feng Qi Qi’s bulged belly full of affection. “I feel that you’re particularly charming like this.” When Feng Cang spoke, Feng Qi Qi’s belly suddenly moved making Feng Cang startled.

Seeing Feng Cang like this, Feng Qi Qi laughed. “Baby knows that daddy returned and is greeting you!”

Feng Qi Qi said this made Feng Cang became a bit of a fool because of happiness, “Qing Qing, are you saying that our baby is moving?”

“Yes! It’s been more than four months. Now, it’s possible to feel the fetal movement!” Feng Qi Qi took Feng Cang’s hand and teach him how to feel the fetal movements. Sure enough, not a while later, from Feng Cang’s palm spread the kind of special feeling like fish splashing in the water.

“I felt it! I felt it!” Feng Cang exclaimed from surprise. “He’s greeting me! He knows that I’m daddy!”

“Mm!” Feng Qi Qi nodded her head gently. “This is probably the so-called blood is thicker than water!”

“Thank you, Qing Qing…,” Feng Cang hugged Feng Qi Qi excitedly. His lips pasted on her black hair. He said, “Thank you! Qing Qing! Thank you for giving me a home! Thank you for giving birth to my children! Thank you for staying with me…”

When facing Feng Qi Qi this man always held a grateful attitude. At this time, the child in Feng Qi Qi’s belly also seemed to have felt the deep love between his parents. He began to slowly move as if he was cooperating with his parents.

When Feng Cang and Feng Qi Qi rose up, the sun was already very high.

Feng Qi Qi took a blade and carefully cleaned the stubbles on Feng Cang’s chin. A while later, a devilishly beautiful man appeared in Feng Qi Qi’s hands.

“Shaved beard looks better! Young and handsome!” The wet cloth in Feng Qi Qi’s hand gently cleansed Feng Cang’s stubbled beard.

“It seemed that Qing Qing is someone who likes the visuals! Then I should be happy with my countenance and take care of my appearance?”

“Of course! The husband is so handsome. It will also give me face when bringing you out!”

Feng Cang and Feng Qi Qi chatted happily while walking out of the room. Outside, Su Mei, Su Yue and Nalan Xin already waited a long time. When they saw Feng Cang, everyone bowed respectfully. Feng Cang nodded and took Feng Qi Qi for breakfast.

“Cang, you returned?”

“I was worried about you! One hundred people faced five thousand people. Don’t you know that people will worry?”

It turned out that Feng Cang already arranged everything of the battle at the front and specially came back to see Feng Qi Qi. In the end, on the way, he received Nalan Xin’s urgent letter. Only then did he know that the city of Min province was surrounded. He immediately rushed to her without stopping. He didn’t expect that when he returned, Feng Qi Qi already handled everything.

“Am I not all right now?!” Feng Qi Qi laughed, but Feng Cang tapped her nose. “I know Qing Qing is smart, but I was still worried and afraid for a long time!”

“I’m sorry! I will pay attention next time! Moreover, weren’t those five thousand people scared away…?”

“You, ah…”

Feng Cang wouldn’t tell Feng Qi Qi that after he got to know that someone had ideas about Feng Qi Qi, he sent the eagle troop to outflank Tian Zhi Xin’s group. Now, presumably those five thousand men went to see the king of hell. They had the guts to had ideas about his wife, they should also bear his furry.

The breakfast was spent in happiness. After the breakfast, Feng Qi Qi nestled in Feng Cang’s arms. “Why did you come back so sudden? Is something the matter?” Although, just now Feng Cag explained the reason, but Feng Qi Qi didn’t believe it. According to Feng Cang’s character, he would certainly take over Dong Lu in one swoop. Now, he suddenly returned. Something had definitely happened.

“Qing Qing, I want to go to Penglai Island!”

That Feng Cang suddenly wanted to go to Penglai Island surprised Feng Qi Qi a bit. She immediately sat up and looked at Feng Cang. “Didn’t we say to go after the war ended? Is it that Forget Love began to act up?”

Facing Feng Qi Qi’s clear eyes, Feng Cang nodded. He didn’t hide his business. “I also don’t know if it acted or not. It’s just, I can’t remember many things about our past anymore…Qing Qing, I’m a bit afraid. I’m afraid that I would really forget you…”

Feng Cang said this meant that the problem was already serious. It seemed that the timeline Jia Lan talked about had advanced. They had to make a trip to Penglai Island.

“I won’t let you forget me! If you dare to forget me, then just wait and see!” The smile on Feng Qi Qi’s face hid her anxiety. “Then let’s set off. I will let people bring Jia Lan and Jin Yu over!”

It would at least take half a month to go to Penglai Island on water. So, on the big boat, fresh water and enough food for a month had been prepared.

“Nalan, trouble you to take care of Dong Lu’s matter!”

“Wangye,1 don’t worry! When you and wangfei 2 returns, Dong Lu would no longer exist!”

After saying goodbye to Nalan Xin, Feng Cang boarded the ship and stood beside Feng Qi Qi. “Set sail!” The signal of the boatman sounded. The ship slowly sailed out of the port.

It was the first time for Su Mei and Su Yue to take a ship. The waves and wind were big on the sea. The two were somewhat uncomfortable and were seasick for a long time. Fortunately, Jin Mo was here. He made some pills according to their body type. In two days, the two adapted to the life of sea.

Feng Qi Qi didn’t have seasickness. Instead, she was enthusiastic every day and took Feng Cang to fishing.

“Wangye, this is the latest pill.” Taking advantage that Feng Qi Qi was taking a nap at the bow of the boat, Jin Mo gave Feng Cang a small bottle. “One a day. You can’t eat to much!”

“I know.” Feng Cang put the small bottle in his chest.

“Wangye, don’t you plan on telling princess? She’s also an expert in this area. Perhaps, she could help you!” Jin Mo was a bit worried about Feng Cang. “Wangye, its better you find an opportunity to tell princess!”

“I don’t want her to be worried!”

While saying this, Feng Cang’s hand shook slightly. He gritted his teeth and forcibly supressed this tremor.

Chapter 178 (Part 2) Gu poison’s residual effects

Since the Red River, this kind of tremor had been going on for about three months. The attacks would occur on a regular basis every day. As the time went by, the attacks became longer. Before, it was only a slight trembling. Now, when the attacks are happening, he couldn’t hold things anymore. He wouldn’t even be able to hold a cup.

“Wangye1, princess and I came from a famous master. Princess’s medical skills are a level above mine! Telling princess sooner would also benefit you, ah!”

“It’s useless!” Feng Cang smiled helplessly. “Didn’t you say that this is the residual effects of the gu?! The gu was transferred to Qing Qing’s body. Without the restrain of the gu poison, the fetal poison began to behave unscrupulously. Only Penglai Island has the cure for the fetal poison. Qing Qing also can’t help!”

Seeing Feng Cang being so stubborn, Jin Mo sighed. “Wangye, I said before, between a husband and wife, there should be honesty. Although, perhaps your starting point may be good, but have you ever thought what princess would think? You’re fighting an illness, but she didn’t know. By then, how guilty would she feel and how heartbroken would she be?”

Jin Mo said so much in one breath made Feng Cang have a whole new level of respect for him. “Jin Mo, I didn’t expect you to know so much about the matters of love! You really can’t tell, ah!”

“Wangye, don’t make more fun of me. Princess is already coming over…”

Jin Mo’s voice just fell when Feng Qi Qi was already standing behind Feng Cang. “Cang, senior brother, what are you talking about?”

“We’re betting! Jin Mo said that today I won’t catch any fish. I said that I would definitely catch a big fish for you to nourish your body. Jin Mo didn’t believe it. So, we could only bet!”

“Oh? Bet? Good! Do you already know what the bet is?” Feng Qi Qi looked slyly at Jin Mo. “Senior brother, since it’s a bet, you should take out the good things, otherwise, you would be too stingy.”

Jin Mo could only smile bitterly seeing this couple echoing one another. “Let’s make a deal! If I lose I will tell you a secret about wangye. If I win, wangye need to promise me one thing.”

Hearing Jin Mo say this, Feng Cang knew he was playing tricks. No matter if he loses or wins, Jin Mo would tell Feng Qi Qi about the residual effects of the gu. Now, she is pregnant. If she is scared and frightened because of his matter and hurt the baby in her belly, then, what should he do?

“Jin Mo, why don’t we change the stakes?! If you lose, then jump in the sea as food for the fishes. If I loses, I will jump. What do you think?”

Feng Cang was obviously stopping Jin Mo from telling Feng Qi Qi, but Jin Mo’s duty was to take care of Feng Cang. This time, he refused to compromise. For a time, these two began to exchange glares and ignored Feng Qi Qi.

“Are you to having a secret?”

Feng Qi Qi had long discovered that there was something wrong with these two men. Now, they were full of ‘tender feelings’ and ‘casted amorous glances’ at each other, making Feng Qi Qi even more sceptical. She took one step forward and separated Feng Cang and Jin Mo.

“Tell me, what is the matter?” Feng Qi Qi crossed her shoulders and make a strong impression with her belly. She looked at Feng Cang, wanting to find some clues from his handsome face.

“Nothing is the matter…,” Feng Cang laughed charmingly. He wanted to hold Feng Qi Qi’s waist, but was avoided by her.

“Senior brother, you tell me! What is Cang hiding from me?” Feng Qi Qi couldn’t find the answer from Feng Cang, so, she looked for it from Jin Mo.

Feng Cang did a ‘shut up’ gesture behind Jin Mo. Although, Jin Mo wanted to say, but after all Feng Cang was his master. He couldn’t violate the will of his master. He could only smilingly play dumb. “Junior sister, I was joking with you! What secret can wangye have?! Could you not know what kind of man he is?”

“Is that so?”

These two people seemed to have conspired with each other. Their mouths are so sealed. Feng Qi Qi wanted to find out the reason, but no one cooperated. She had no way about where to start.

“Qing Qing, come, sit here! Drink water…,” Feng Cang helped Feng Qi Qi sit down and poured water. Just as he lifted the teacup, his hand suddenly began to shake. ‘Kuangdang…’ The teacup fell on the deck and broke into several pieces.

Feng Cang paled. Then, he hid his hand in his sleeve. “Haha, the storm is really big…,” Feng Cang smiled softly.

“There’s no storm!” Feng Cang’s abnormal behaviour was keenly captured by Feng Qi Qi. She stood up and walked to Feng Cang. She reached out and grabbed his hand but was avoided by Feng Cang.

“I didn’t burn. you don’t have to worry!” Feng Cang took a step back. He hadn’t retreated yet, when Feng Qi Qi flipped out. “Stop! Reach out your hand!”

The people who were used to Feng Qi Qi’s gentleness had been frightened by her sudden ‘lion roar’. Even Feng Cang was startled. Feng Qi Qi quickly walked to him and grabbed Feng Cang’s hand. When Feng Cang’s trembling hand came out of his sleeve, Feng Qi Qi’s heart skipped a beat. “What had happened?”

Feng Qi Qi habitually placed her fingers on Feng Cang’s wrist.

“It’s nothing, Qing Qing. Jin Mo already made medicine for me…”

“Shut up!” Feng Qi Qi shouted. Feng Cang understood that she was really angry this time. Seeing that Feng Qi Qi’s face was so grim, Feng Cang stood well-behavedly for the first time in front of Feng Qi Qi. He was like a child who did something wrong and motionlessly waited to be ‘reprimanded’.

“When did this happen?”

After checking one hand, Feng Qi Qi replaced it with the other.

“It began the first time I met Misha…”

“It had been so long?” Feng Qi Qi frowned. After checking, Feng Qi Qi turned and faced Jin Mo. “Senior brother, what is your opinion?”

“I think it’s the residual effects of the gu. Although, the gu poison had been induced in your body, but without the restrain of the gu poison, the fetal poison began to behave unscrupulously. This is also why wangye’s Forget Love acted in advance and the amnesia happened sooner than expected.

Feng Qi Qi’s thoughts coincided with that of Jin Mo. She took the medicine Jin Mo made for Feng Cang. Feng Qi Qi put it under her nose and sniffed. When she wanted to try it, she was stopped by Feng Cang and Jin Mo at the same time. Only now did Feng Qi Qi remembered that she is pregnant and that she couldn’t just try medicines. She simply began to discuss the condition of Feng Cang with Jin Mo.

Seeing that Feng Qi Qi and Jin Mo was discussing in full swing and ignored him completely, Feng Cang felt a bit bitter. It seemed that he really did wrong. This time he really offended Feng Qi Qi!

After Feng Qi Qi and Jin Mo finished discussing, Jin Mo stood up happily. “Junior sister, I will add the two kinds of herbs you talked about!” After getting the prescription, Jin Mo was like he won a treasure. He left Feng Cang and hurriedly went into the cabin to prepare his new medicine.

Finally, he got the opportunity. Feng Cang walked to Feng Qi Qi and slowly lowered his body. “Qing Qing, I didn’t purposely hide this from you! I’m sorry!”

“Humph! How dare I question the regent’s decision?! As far as the regent is concerned, I’m and outsider. The baby in my belly is also an outsider. That is why, I shouldn’t intervene in your things. You also don’t need my care. You and I are not family. So, there’s no need for you to report everything to me!”

Feng Qi Qi was really angry. Feng Cang actually didn’t say a thing of such a big matter. According to Jin Mo, Feng Cang’s situation had extended from his hands to his arms. Moreover, the time it happens also extended. This was also why Feng Cang would suddenly put down the matters of the war and wanted to go to Penglai Island sooner.

Although, Feng Qi Qi could understand that Feng Cang did it for her to not let her be worried, but after it happened, and she got to know the truth, she still couldn’t control her emotions.

“Qing Qing, I didn’t think so. You’re my wife. How could you have nothing to do with me?!”

“Since I’m your wife, why did you hide things from me? You told Jin Mo but didn’t tell me. Am I in the first place in your heart?!” While speaking, Feng Qi Qi’s tears began to fall, making Feng Cang more apprehensive.

“Qing Qing, it’s my fault. Don’t cry!” Feng Cang wanted to wipe Feng Qi Qi’s tears, but his hand was thrown away by her. “Don’t touch me! I hate you!”

Having said this, Feng Qi Qi stood up and strode back to the cabin.

Although the scene on the deck made Su Mei and Su Yue didn’t know what to do, but now, after casting a glance once at Feng Cang, the two went into to the cabin to Feng Qi Qi’s room.

Feng Cang had been standing on the deck. His outstretched hand still held the posture of wiping Feng Qi Qi’s tears. His fingers trembled slightly. This kind of tremor spread from his wrist to his arm.

It seemed that this time he really made Feng Qi Qi angry! It seemed that this was the first time Feng Qi Qi got angry ever since they’ve met.

Inside the cabin, Feng Qi Qi’s tears didn’t stop from falling. When Su Mei and Su Yue entered and saw such a Feng Qi Qi, the two went forward and comforted her. “Miss, guye2 didn’t do it on purpose. Guye was afraid that you would worry, affect your emotions and that it would be bad for the baby!”

“I know!” Feng Qi Qi choked with sobs. “I know he did it for my own good, but I’m so sad!”

“Miss…” Su Yue just sat next to Feng Qi Qi, when Feng Qi Qi threw herself in her (SY) arms. “Su Yue, I’m so useless! I’m a doctor and saved many people but couldn’t cure my own husband! I know that he was afraid that I would worry. So, he kept these from me and didn’t tell me. I know I shouldn’t have gotten angry with him. I was really angry at myself!”

“Woowoo…I’m so useless. I couldn’t cure him. I’m so useless…woowoo…I blame myself for not having learned enough from master. If I could’ve learned master’s skills, Cang wouldn’t have to endure this pain…”

It turned out that Feng Qi Qi’s sadness wasn’t because Feng Cang kept a secret from her, but it was because of this.

Seeing that Feng Qi Qi cried like this, Su Yue and Su Mei comforted Feng Qi Qi. “Miss, this isn’t your fault! If there’s someone to blame, it’s the one who poisoned guye! Miss and guye are such good people; why did you had to suffer so many tests and tortures?! It’s really unfair!”

While Su Mei talked, her eyes also became red. It was Su Yue who was more rational at this time. “Miss, cry! Cry out all the sadness and grievances in your heart! After you cry, you will feel a lot better!”

Feng Qi Qi cried for a long time before she stopped. Seeing Su Mei with red eyes, Feng Qi Qi spoke in a low muffled voice, “Su Mei, why are you crying?”

“I…,” Su Mei wiped her face. Sure enough, it was a hand full of tears. “Look what happened to me! I wanted to persuade miss. I didn’t expect myself to cry.” Su Mei turned her face and wiped the tears. Then, she brought water for Feng Qi Qi to wash her face.

“Miss, since the things have already happened. Let’s face it together! Now, it’s no longer meaningful to look into who is wrong. After a while, we will arrive at Penglai Island! By then, guye would be cured and you also don’t have to worry anymore!”

Su Mei wringed the towel and gave it to Feng Qi Qi. “You cried for so long here. Guye must be very worried outside. Miss, guye is already very remorseful. If you continue to cry, guye would probably jump in the sea!”

Su Mei’s last sentence amused Feng Qi Qi. After washing her face, Feng Qi Qi felt a lot refreshed.

“Su Mei, Su Yue, thank you! After letting out all the low feelings in my heart, I feel a lot better! You’re right. I should be more optimistic! As long as we cure the fetal poison in Cang’s body, the residual left by the gu poison would also be solved!”

Feng Qi Qi’s mood became better. Su Mei and Su Yue also felt relieved. After the two went out, they discovered Feng Cang outside of the door.

“Guye, miss is waiting for you!” Su Mei and Su Yue exchanged a smile. They made way and let Feng Cang enter.

Before, Feng Cang had been outside of the room. Feng Qi Qi’s cries spread out from the room, making his heart ache a lot. The thought that this was all because he made Feng Qi Qi sad, Feng Cang was very remorseful. He hated himself for not listening to Jin Mo. He should’ve told Feng Qi Qi these sooner. Like that, he wouldn’t have make her sad.
