Chapter 10: Barbara Chong
Anping, who originally felt that he shouldn't have much of a problem, was a little nervous when Barbara asked.
Could it be that his injuries are so serious that he can't recover? That's why the Knights are so enthusiastic about taking care of me, and I hope I have a good memory in my last days?
"Anping, you..."
"Wait!"
Anping interrupted Barbara.
"Barbara, tell me honestly, is my body hopeless?"
"How do you have that thought?"
Barbara blinked in confusion.
"Although your body is in terrible condition now, there is no fatal injury, so it only takes a while to recuperate."
Anping was sure from the momentary surprise on Barbara's face that she wasn't lying.
"Then why do you keep asking me if it hurts?"
"Ah, that's... This..."
Barbara's cheeks suddenly flushed, and her fingers unconsciously scratched at her white legs, making a slight rustling sound.
Miss Barbara, who is shy and flustered, looks very seductive, but Anping realizes that this shyness does not seem to be due to herself.
Barbara, who was stared at by An Ping, felt a little embarrassed.
"It's, it's... Sister... Oh no, Captain Jean... I'll do that too, so if you do..."
Barbara's voice became smaller and smaller, and her head lowered, and when it came to the back, Anping didn't hear a word.
Yes?
What is the reason for this?
Anping suddenly couldn't understand the sudden wonderful brain circuit of the girl in front of him.
"But if it's about pain relief, I should... No, I can do better than my sister! β
Barbara suddenly raised her head, pressed her hand to her chest, and announced very confidently.
β¦
Anping was silent, he didn't know what to say, because he really didn't hurt now.
But he seems to have captured the key point in Barbara's wonderful brain circuitβhis sister's competitiveness.
You can't lie and let Barbara perform painkillers on herself and then praise her with false affection, it's too hypocritical.
"Of course I believe that."
After thinking about it, Anping finally spoke.
"There is no doubt that Barbara's healing magic is very magical, if I hadn't been moving yesterday, I wouldn't even feel that there was something wrong with my body, but after today's treatment, I can feel the cells in my body full of vitality, and I believe that under your healing, it won't take long for me to recover." And it's because of Barbara's healing magic that it's normal that I don't feel pain. In terms of healing, as a person who has experienced it firsthand, I believe that Barbara, you must be better than your sister, oh no, Captain Jean. β
In the end, An Ping couldn't help but tease Barbara.
"Really... Are you sure? Do you really think so? But in fact, I can only do this little thing well, my sister can do anything, much better than me..."
In the face of Anping's straight ball and sincere praise, Barbara became a little twisted.
"It's a small thing to you, but to me, Barbara, you're my savior."
An Ping looked at Barbara with a smile as she hugged her arms and kneaded her.
"Don't don't don't say it again, I feel like I'm fluttering if I keep talking..."
The shy Barbara covered her face and fell onto the table.
"Anping, wouldn't it be boring for you to lie in bed, or I'll sing you a song?"
After lying on her stomach for a while, Barbara finally calmed down and turned her head to ask An Ping.
"That's my pleasure."
Anping, who was so bored that he counted the patterns and lines on the ceiling, readily agreed.
"Da Da ~ Da ~ Da Da ~ "
Barbara hummed a light and cheerful tune, and her voice echoed through the Knights' rooms...
If Mr. Albert, who spends his days wandering outside Mondstadt Cathedral, had known about the singing of Barbara, a popular idol in Mondstadt, he would probably have infiltrated the Knights and stole Klee's bomb to blow himself up...
I really hope he doesn't steal the firepower booster when he doesn't blow up the fish.
Anping didn't bask in the song for long, because Barbara hummed for a few minutes before falling asleep on the table.
"Barbara rush!"
Barbara, who is asleep, also speaks in her dreams.
An Ping smiled like an old father and looked at Barbara lying on the table.
Noelle gently pushed open the door and walked in.
"Is Miss Barbara asleep?"
Noelle asked as low as he could, so as not to disturb Barbara's sleep.
An Ping nodded.
"What a hard work, Miss Barbara, who didn't sleep all day yesterday, and this morning she is going to lead the nuns in singing and praying to Lord Barbatos... After the end, I'm worried that your body will come to treat you again... I'll send Miss Barbara back to rest first, and I'll be back soon. β
Noelle opened the cupboard, took out a thin blanket and draped it over Barbara's body, carefully picked up Barbara and walked out of the room.
After Noelle sends Barbara back to rest, Lisa, yawning, returns to Anping's room.
"Little one, there's bad news for you."
As soon as Lisa entered the door, she almost caused Anping to go into cardiopulmonary arrest.
"What's the bad news?"
An Ping struggled to get out of bed, but the tearing sensation from his body forced him to continue lying down.
"I'm sorry I didn't get your word out, but I didn't see the fleet you said when I got to Lookout, and the fleet probably left Mondstadt."
"Scared me, it turned out that the fleet was gone, I thought it was some bad news."
Anping breathed a sigh of relief.
Let's go, let's go, I have also encountered irresistible factors, just go back and scold the captain.
But I didn't go back, and the captain didn't even call someone to look for me, really.
Later, I'll ask Noelle to write a letter to Liyue and explain the situation to him.
"But little one, your body is really strong, it is a miracle that you were bombed by Klee's child and were still intact, but you only suffered some internal injuries due to the shock."
Lisa squinted her eyes and walked to the window with a smile and poked Anping's shoulder through the quilt.
"But, maybe it weakened the bomb in the water, and I think I'm lucky. And it's not a little hurt, you see I can't move at all..."
An Ping explained with a dry smile.
"Hehehe."
Lisa withdrew her hand and chuckled.
"By the way, can you tell me how you landed on the beach over there at Lookout Point? If you're coming from Liyue, Eagle Soar Beach would be closer. β
"It was the employer's request to unload the goods over there, and it didn't matter where we landed."
Seeing that Lisa had changed the subject, An Ping hurriedly replied fluently, as long as he didn't wonder why he didn't have a little trauma.
"Employer? Can you tell me who your employer is? β
"Of course, that's fine, we're not a smuggling fleet, we were hired by Liyue's Northland Bank."
"Northland Bank?"
Lisa pinched her chin and repeated the name.
"What's wrong? Is there any contraband in that shipment? β
Anping was a little worried, not knowing why he was suddenly asked about the fleet.
"I'm just a little curious why you are willing to go far away, so you can rest well, and come to the library for a cup of afternoon tea when you can move." Hmm~ It's been a busy day, and it's time for me to make up for a nap. β
Lisa's voice was lazy, she stretched her waist, and completely showed her bumpy body curves in front of An Ping's eyes.
gave Anping a straight look in the eyes.
