Chapter 931: The Miraculous Effect of Body Refining Liquid

 

Inside the European-style pavilion deep within Paradise Manor, Cui Yanru was in the bathroom soaking herself in the bathtub. She was sweating from head to toe and gasping for breath. The pain she felt was like having her body sheared by a knife, generating the increasing fear inside her heart. She felt like she would definitely die if she kept soaking herself in the bathtub.

"Is it very painful, Mom?"

Yue Li, who was supporting her, could see her distressed and pained look as she asked with deep concern.

Cui Yanru's whole body trembled. She lifted her trembling hand to rub off the sweat on her flushed face, replying with a hoarse voice, "It's painful like countless ants biting my body. I have had injuries and have experienced physical pain countless times before, yet none could compare with soaking in this water. Lili, if you can't endure it later, just come out."

"I know, Mom. I know." Yue Li nodded and took a deep breath.

She trusted Tang Xiu and firmly believed that he wouldn't harm them. After all, this man fulfilled his promise to pay 100 million USD to them. He absolutely wouldn't harm them for no reason at all. Hence, she undressed and walked into the bathtub barefoot. She then felt the water temperature which hadn't cooled off even though her mother had been soaking inside for 10 minutes.

"I can do it."

Yue Li clenched her fists and slowly sat in the warm water in the tub. She began to feel very comfortable at first. But then, itchiness came from inside her, as if countless brushes were now stroking her body. A half-minute later, however, it was replaced with a growing pain all over her body.

"It's painful, Mom."

Clear tears were now gleaming and whirling in her eyes. Her pretty face was flushed red, and green veins on her forehead throbbed and protruded out; thus, she could only speak such a short sentence through hissing.

Cui Yanru, who had taken a break, felt that the pain in her body had disappeared a lot. She now looked at the painful look on her daughter's face and replied with concern, "Come out if you can't stand it, Lili! Mom already experienced it and knows how painful it is. You have no illness, so you don't need to experience it as Mom did."

Yue Li may look delicate, but she had a stubbornly strong will. Combined with her trust in Tang Xiu, she stubbornly shook her head and said, "I can do it, Mom!"

Time fleeted by, and, after over five minutes, the painful expression on Cui Yanru's face gradually disappeared and ruddiness now moved to replace it on her face. Shortly after, she felt that the itchiness that was raging inside her body now turned into a warm sensation. She even felt that her body began to restore its strength, growing in power.

'It feels... so comfortable?'

Cui Yanru zoned out for a while. She suddenly looked at Yue Li and called out with pleasant surprise, "I don't feel any pain again, Lili! It's... I feel... very comfortable now, more comfortable than I've ever felt, even compared to when I wasn't ill. Divine Doctor didn't lie to us. I can feel that I'm getting stronger."

Yue Li, on the other hand, was now suffering in pain at the moment. She even had a thought of giving up several times. But when she heard her mother's exclamation, her spirit soared and she gritted her teeth to continue holding on. After a few minutes, when she felt that she couldn't hold on anymore and her body would break apart if she remained, she finally got up and came out of the bathtub, albeit while struggling in the process.

Outside the bathroom.

Yang Pengchao was restless and paced back and forth anxiously. If it wasn't for his future mother-in-law also being inside the bathroom, he could've rushed inside to see Yue Li's situation. Tang Xiu said that the process of soaking inside the warm water with that medication would be very painful, so he was afraid that Yue Li would face some problems.
