Chapter 128 They're All Sick

Is the power of love... limitless?

Lei Dian is completely baffled. Is this some new way of saying it?

Or is it some kind of stream of consciousness?

Does it mean "good wishes"?

"……almost."

Looking at Zhen's serious expression, Liu Bai suddenly felt that the question from earlier might not be so simple.

After getting to know him, he seems quite open-minded and humorous, but now this person doesn't even realize he's joking?

That means... the question about lifespan just now wasn't a casual remark, but rather a serious discussion with oneself?

Hmm... then my answer does seem a little frivolous.

But you're asking me about lifespan... I'm just a gamer...

Liu Bai sighed.

"Alright, alright, let's not dwell on those things. Let's eat first. How have you been feeling lately?"

"Breathing doesn't hurt as much anymore, and I feel like I might be able to get out of bed in a while."

"That's your misconception. According to the current treatment course, it will take at least two months to fully recover, and it will take at least a month to get out of bed."

"...Is that so?" This was quite unexpected.

Is this considered being dampened by a cold shower?

However, a hint of joy immediately appeared on his face.

She was actually referring to a period of six months, but Liu Bai poured cold water on that by saying... two months?

Two months is nothing?

This is a minor issue.

His face was truly filled with a relieved expression.

[Raiden's Affection Level: 2730]

"...Oh, by the way, feel free to ask if there's anything else you need," Bai continued. "By the way, how about we convert this room of yours into a Japanese style?"

The promised "treatment funds" from Fox Palace have arrived, and Liu Bai is now financially well-off again.

"No need, it's fine as it is."

Raiden glanced out the window; the view from here was enough for her.

Besides... she really got tired of living in the Japanese-style house, so changing places might not be a bad thing.

After a while, Liu Bai finished feeding the child and, as usual, said goodbye. As he left, Fox Abode Palace was at the door.

"Thank you for your help today."

[Fox Palace's Favorability Rating: 2526]

Hu Zhaigong bowed slightly to Liu Bai, who nodded in response, before Hu Zhaigong entered the room.

After closing the door, Fox Palace looked at Raiden lying on the bed and sighed, "My dear General~~"

"...Fox Palace, you can say what you have to say directly, there's no need to start with mourning."

After Liu Bai confirmed that he would recover in two months, Lei Dian's mood improved considerably—after all, nobody wants to die.

"Sigh, the theory of lifespan..." Fox Palace took out a small fan from its waist and, mimicking Raiden Shin's melancholy tone, began, "The thought that I won't be able to accompany you, General... Waaaaah~~"

"...Why don't you go to the kitchen and get an onion first?"

Raiden looked speechlessly at Fox Palace, who was pretending to cry while covering his eyes with a fan. "I know you're eavesdropping, but don't you know who I'm asking this question for?"

You heartless fox!

Why would I waste my time having awkward, pointless conversations with someone else if it weren't for your happiness?

"It's better than you chatting with Lord Liu Bai about such nonsensical things. What are you thinking...?"

You have a perfectly healthy person in front of you, and instead of talking about living things, you talk about death. Did you finally get sick and damaged your brain?

Are you getting ready to learn from your sister?

"I'm not worrying unnecessarily."

Raiden also argued his case based on reason.

"Fox Palace, love is not about being impulsive or acting on a whim. How can you live without a plan for your future?"

"...?"

Wait a mininute.

Fox Palace closed the fan.

Does this mean that Zhen has finally figured it out or not?

In other words, you've considered it, but haven't made a decision yet?

Hmm... that's true. She's decisive when it comes to important matters, but when it comes to personal things, she can be a bit hesitant like a little woman.

"Hmm...so you still want a solution?"

If that's the case, then I think it's alright. If you're hesitating at this crucial moment, then I think your question is quite meaningful.

However, the biggest problem now is that they both think the other is describing their own situation.

"There is a way." Fox Palace gently patted its palm with its small fan. "For example, the Herrscher core?"

"Isn't this a heretical path?"

Raiden directly retorted, "Putting the Herrscher core on someone, you really dare to think that way!"

What if something serious happens? Who will be responsible?

Fox Palace was not surprised by Raiden's rebuttal; well, after all, you have to lift the roof before you can open a window.

"The hibernation and modification technologies from the Schicksal side?"

"...Are you really sober today, Fox Palace?"

Are you saying this to prepare for a full-scale war against Heaven's Mandate for Liu Bai's sake? Or are you planning to run away with Liu Bai?

"Hmm... this won't work, that won't work either." Fox Palace Little Fanzi rested her temple on her hand, looking troubled. "Then... the Heart of God?"

"..."

Zhen suddenly had nothing to say, while Fox Palace looked at Zhen with a smile.

—What is Fox Palace saying? Is this considered treason? Is her brain even functioning today?

—So? Seriously, all you need to solve your current relationship problems is something you can no longer do without. Isn't that a good deal?

"..."

"..."

An awkward silence fell over the two of them, staring at each other, unsure what to say.

"...Shin, what do you want to say?"

"What do you want me to say?" Zhen looked speechless.

What can I say? I'd like to ask you the same question! You can talk about this in front of me, how am I supposed to respond?

But... you know what, this solution actually seems pretty plausible.

But the problem is, if he's going to do that, why doesn't he try to matchmake his own sister...?

"...Let's talk about it later."

Lei Dianzhen suddenly realized what Liu Bai meant when he said to her earlier, "Everyone seems a bit crazy today."

The current Fox Palace is clearly making a stupid mistake, isn't it?

"Okay, we'll talk about it later."

Fox Palace nodded indifferently. As long as Raiden Shin realized this, she would have succeeded.

"In that case, do you have any further instructions?"

"No, you can leave now."

Hu Zhaigong bowed and then left the room.

It's completely understandable that Raiden hesitated.

After all, while the Heart of God is currently useless to Raiden, it has symbolic meaning and has been with her for so long—wait a minute, isn't it the perfect token of love?

"What are you hesitating for?"

Fox Palace scratched his head.

However, at that moment, the sound of arguing came from the side.

"Little Gui Zi! No!"

"Hmm?" Fox Palace, with a curious mindset, peeked around the corner.

Liu Ying stretched out her arms to stop Gui Naifen, who was holding a quilt, while Huang Quan watched the show from the doorway.

"Miss Huang Quan, what's wrong?" The dog from the Fox Palace sneaked up to Huang Quan and asked her.

It's really counterintuitive that these two would argue.

"Xiao Guizi needs to do a thorough cleaning of Mr. Huang's room," Huang Quan replied casually.

"Isn't this a very ordinary thing? How did they end up arguing about it?"

Huang Quan did not respond, but he had an air of "I am also very confused".

"To be honest, it hasn't even been a month yet, there's absolutely no need to wash it, Xiao Guizi!"

"Washing it every two weeks is a perfectly reasonable thing to do."

Gui Naifen, clutching her blanket, tried to bump into Liu Ying, but Liu Ying easily pushed her back.

"...That's all?"

Fox Palace scratches its head. Are you all sick?

"...It has nothing to do with me." Huang Quan was also confused.

For the two of them now, this "small matter" is something they cannot afford to let slip by the big issue.

As for Gui, Naifen came to V and said that this was Ni's first step in fighting back against Liu Ying, and she could no longer let Liu Ying continue to be so perverted towards Liu Bai.

As for Liu Ying... Gui Naifen washed the quilt, so all her patience these past few days was for nothing!

This is something that absolutely cannot be compromised.

"After all, isn't Mr. Liu Bai's quilt still quite clean? Shouldn't it be washed only when it gets dirty?"

"If it gets dirty and you wash it, it's already sloppy!"

Gui Naifen was equally adamant – she, Xiao Guizi, would protect the boss's chastity!

And getting dirty will probably excite you even more!

"Huang Quan, who do you think will win?"

"Liu Ying."

Huang Quan answered without even thinking.

"Xiao Guizi can't beat Liu Ying."

Liu Ying occasionally exudes a chilling aura, so she is definitely not an ordinary person.

If you can't win an argument by reasoning, then you have no choice but to resort to violence.

"Let's go find the gentleman to mediate."

"It should be right here."
