83: Chapter 83 Hehe

A long time passed, so long it felt like waiting for the world to return to silence.

Shen Yue was truly curious about what Tang Xiaotang and Brother had been doing in the room.

Especially since, driven by her curiosity, she paid extra attention to the sounds coming from inside.

The soundproofing in this old apartment complex was definitely not good.

But even saying it wasn't good, it still offered some degree of effect.

So Shen Yue could hear some indistinct, muffled sounds, but couldn't make them out clearly.

Beside her, Qi Lian was still studying the song lyrics in front of her.

She had been singing for a long time, yet Qi Lian was still so interested in them.

"Lian Lian, it's been so long. Why hasn't Brother come out yet? Should we go in and check? Is Xiao Tang's illness very serious?"

As a roommate, Shen Yue showed all the appropriate concern that a rich woman like Tang Xiaotang deserved.

"Very serious," Qi Lian nodded very seriously, thinking of Tang Xiaotang's appearance.

"But it's fine. Brother can definitely handle it."

Qi Lian also had complete faith in Fang Xun.

"Then, okay then."

Shen Yue was half-convinced, but since Lian Lian said so, she decided to believe it.

Finally, after some more time passed, Fang Xun's door creaked open.

The two girls immediately turned their heads in unison, their wide eyes blinking as they looked over.

Upon looking, they saw Fang Xun sneaking out.

When he saw the two girls looking over, Fang Xun unconsciously swallowed.

"Well... well... well, Xiao Tang is still resting."

"Oh, oh." Shen Yue nodded. She felt that Brother was acting strangely, but couldn't pinpoint why.

Immediately after, the two watched Fang Xun enter the kitchen, pour a large cup of warm water from the thermos, and then carry this large cup back into the room.

"Brother looks very tired, he must be so thirsty," Shen Yue deduced simply.

"Mmm..." Qi Lian hummed softly while looking at that room.

The scent on Brother was very clean.

Meanwhile, inside the room...

Tang Xiaotang lay weakly on the bed, lacking the strength to even move a finger.

Only her body occasionally twitched, indicating she was still happily alive.

She laboriously lifted her eyelids to look at Fang Xun walking in, wishing she could hide her entire self under the bed.

Just now, just now, just now...

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Tang Xiaotang's heart was churning, but she barely had the strength to even groan.

"Drink water. You're finally dehydrated, aren't you?"

Fang Xun looked at the bed, found a clean corner to sit down, then pulled Tang Xiaotang up, making her sit up slightly on the bed.

Tang Xiaotang pursed her lips, not daring to speak.

She had already used up all the sounds she had for the past few days.

Instead, Fang Xun directly brought the water cup to her lips and poured half a cup down her throat with gurgling sounds.

After replenishing some moisture, Tang Xiaotang finally recovered a bit of Mental Energy.

"Brother, you big bad guy," Tang Xiaotang whispered softly.

Her tone at this moment bore a slight resemblance to Jiang Qin's.

"So, what exactly happened?"

The previous incident was over; now it was finally time to settle accounts.

Fang Xun looked at the mess in the room.

He truly didn't know how this girl could have produced so much.

Even though she was so small.

Hearing Fang Xun ask, Tang Xiaotang whimpered and shrank back into the covers.

After adjusting for a long time, Tang Xiaotang managed to find the dry half of the blanket and curled up inside it.

Fang Xun wasn't indulgent; he directly yanked the blanket away, exposing the girl.

"Where is your dress!"

When he pulled it open, a expanse of snow-white was revealed. Fang Xun quickly covered her again.

"It's all dirty..."

Tang Xiaotang extended one hand, pointing towards the floor.

Indeed, in a corner on the floor lay Tang Xiaotang's discarded dress.

"You..."

Fang Xun took a deep breath and first went to open the window.

The smell in this room was strange right now.

"I'll go find Jiang Qin's clothes for you to wear first. If Jiang Qin asks, you know what to say, right?"

"Mmm..."

Tang Xiaotang made a soft humming sound, unwilling to speak.

So, Fang Xun walked out in the strange gazes of the two girls in the living room, entered Jiang Qin's room.

He returned to his own room with a few items of clothing.

"Wear them."

"Tired..." Tang Xiaotang stuck out one finger from under the blanket and gently waved it.

"Brother, I'll sleep for a bit, just a moment."

Although she said 'just a moment,' Tang Xiaotang was clearly exhausted.

After saying that, the finger dropped down, unmoving.

Fang Xun looked at the mess covering the floor and, for a moment, didn't know what to do.

"Does this count as taking advantage of Tang Xiaotang? Or does it count as... being taken advantage of by Tang Xiaotang? This girl really dares to do anything."

Fang Xun had already guessed that Tang Xiaotang must have tried to do something bad, which resulted in her getting burned by her own fire.

But Fang Xun truly couldn't guess what kind of bad deed Tang Xiaotang intended that would lead to such an abstract outcome.

And...

Fang Xun's gaze drifted toward the trash can nearby.

Inside were over ten pieces of blood-stained tissue paper.

"Playing quite a big game... Did she end up sacrificing herself?"

Thinking of this, Fang Xun could barely stand the air in the room, which was damp yet carried a foul odor.

Even opening the window wouldn't allow for quick ventilation.

Fang Xun snapped his fingers lightly, and streams of flames flew out from his hand, landing on the stains.

The moisture instantly evaporated and, carried by the rising heat, was directly sent out of the room.

Before long, the damp feeling in the room was completely cleared away by Fang Xun.

Even the stains on the clothes were dealt with by Fang Xun.

Only after sending all that away did Fang Xun take a satisfied deep breath.

Now that was more like it—a clean smell.

After finishing all this, Fang Xun straightened Tang Xiaotang's body out from under the blanket, letting her lie flat.

Then, he covered her with the quilt properly and closed the window.

This Little Green Tea certainly got her just deserts.

"Brother, how is Xiao Tang?"

Shen Yue had waited outside for a long time and had wanted to come in and check several times.

But she was stopped by Qi Lian each time.

Finally, after waiting for Fang Xun to finish cleaning up, Qi Lian finally agreed to come over and check together.

Fang Xun opened the door, and the two little heads stood at the doorway, one higher than the other.

"Brother, how is Xiao Tang?"

Seeing Fang Xun open the door, Shen Yue poked her head in and asked again.

"She's fine, just fell asleep."

Fang Xun stepped aside, letting the two girls come in.

He was confident he had cleaned everything spotlessly; these two girls absolutely wouldn't notice anything.

"Hey, why are Xiao Tang's clothes all off?"
