"Xie Jingchen, it’s already daylight, stop making trouble!" Zhang Shanni’s face turned even darker as she bit her teeth and scolded in a low voice.
Because she clearly felt his body gradually reviving, she really dared not move recklessly anymore. Her voice was on the verge of crying, angry with him for going too far. She directly used his full name to complain about his misdeeds.
"Wife, I’m sorry, it’s my fault. You just lie down quietly, I’ll go make some hot water for you to soak in. Don’t move!"
"Mmm..." Zhang Shanni was too sleepy, tired, and in pain to care about him anymore, but seeing that he was finally taking care of her with some semblance of conscience, she could only gently hum in response.
Pulling over the bright red wedding quilt to cover her slender frame, he kissed her sleepy and conflicted face, "Be good, you sleep a little, I’ll call you when the hot water is ready." Seeing her close her eyes in fatigue, it took less than half a minute for her to fall asleep again.
Xie Jingchen really felt guilty this time. After all, he already understood seventy to eighty percent of how delicate little girl’s body was these past few days. Seeing how her previously spirited self had become so listless and sickly, looking extremely weary, labor-worn, and painfully pitiful, he truly felt heartbroken.
He quickly pulled on long pants, didn’t bother to put on a shirt, and went straight from the side door to the kitchen. He swiftly started the stove and had the water boiling vigorously in no time.
The supposedly sleeping Zhang Shanni, upon confirming he was gone, immediately moved a transparent small wine glass of about three ounces from her Space, and gulped it down in one go. The small wine glass instantly vanished from her hand.
Her body was just too uncomfortable! She didn’t care about the danger of her husband discovering something amiss and hurriedly drank a small amount of Chaos Water, about half a mouthful.
Originally, she thought she had complete control over her current body, but who would have thought her wedding night last night would end with her man ’fixing her up’ so badly!
This made no sense at all!
In the apocalypse, there were many live broadcasts, but she had never seen any of those willingly degraded women show any sign of pain on their faces!
Even Zhang Shanni herself had experienced a few explosions in secret before accepting her fate and allowing them to dissipate slowly! One First-level Crystal Core could only produce one cup of Spirit Core Water, which could quickly and painlessly transform the human body’s essence when consumed. If mixed into a solution with a ten-to-one ratio, the equivalent of one serving of spiritual water could speed up the growth of plants on one acre of land by about ten days!
This rate of flow was quite good, and the coverage wasn’t small either. But an embrace of First-level Spirit Core Water would take a year to produce, which was an overly lengthy process. Eventually, researchers found that simply bringing the Five Elements Crystal Cores to a water source could slightly improve human and plant conditions. They decided to drop them directly into water ponds and let them gradually alter the water quality.
After all, these scientists had only figured out the effects of First-tier Cores, and with such a long time frame, the benefits were meager compared to the efforts invested. It was neither pleasant to keep nor easy to discard.
Zhang Shanni always felt that these Crystal Cores had more potential for human development and didn’t abandon the experiment. Whenever she wasn’t out on missions, she would spend her time tinkering with these things in her room.
After consuming a mouthful of Chaos Liquid, she immediately felt some strength returning to her body, followed by a warm sensation tingling through her limbs. The intense tearing sensation gradually disappeared from her senses. Without the burning pain, Zhang Shanni, overwhelmed by sleepiness, curled up naked under the blanket and fell asleep.
Just as she was about to sink into deep sleep, she felt someone moving her. After a few moments, she noticed the warmth on her body, and the anticipated sharp pain from touching water was so reduced that it didn’t trigger her pain sensation. She just mumbled, "So sleepy," and drifted back to sleep contentedly.
When Zhang Shanni woke up again, she found that it was already bright outside. She abruptly tried to sit up, only to realize she was being held around the waist by a large hand. As she moved, she noticed a pause in the breathing above her head.
