Chapter 78

Climbing over the wall, Qin Lang called Han Sanqiang and asked him to find a Chinese medicine shop that was open at night.

People like Han Sanqiang were used to staying out late for entertainment. Upon receiving Qin Lang's call, he hurriedly drove over himself and arranged for his subordinates to take action. This made some people on the streets think that Han Sanqiang was up to something big, even the night patrol police became tense. Little did they know, these people were just looking for a Chinese medicine shop that was open at night.

With more people, things got done faster. Qin Lang soon found a Chinese medicine shop, got a prescription for a cold, and hurriedly climbed back over the wall to Tao Ruoxiang's dormitory.

When the door to Tao Ruoxiang's dormitory opened, Qin Lang was so stunned that he almost dropped the Chinese medicine. It was as if Tao Ruoxiang, this "Medusa," had turned him into a stone statue.

"Be... too beautiful!" Qin Lang thought to himself, swallowing hard.

At that moment, Tao Ruoxiang had just finished bathing. She was wearing a silk strapless nightgown, and to prevent any exposure, she had a white shirt over it. She was wearing a pair of fluffy slippers. However, with Tao Ruoxiang's figure, it was like "the beauty of spring cannot be contained." The shirt, which was supposed to cover her, only made her even more alluring because of her prominent chest, giving off an explosive and irresistible charm. Her rosy cheeks and lips, wet hair, and long, slender legs below the hem of her dress all exuded a fatal attraction, leaving Qin Lang in a daze.

"Standing there for what? Come in quickly, cough, cough~" Tao Ruoxiang saw Qin Lang's stunned look and felt a bit smug. After all, this proved that her charm was still very powerful.

Qin Lang finally came to his senses and said awkwardly, "I'll go boil the medicine."

Soon, the room was filled with the smell of Chinese medicine. Then, Qin Lang brought the boiled medicine over and handed it to Tao Ruoxiang, "Drink it while it's hot, then get some sleep. You'll be better by morning!"

"Bitter... Does it really work? I heard Chinese medicine is quite slow." Tao Ruoxiang asked after taking a sip.

"I'm a very skilled Chinese medicine practitioner. How can you compare me to ordinary quacks?" Qin Lang huffed, "Don't just stand there, finish it quickly and get a good night's sleep!"

After giving the instructions, Qin Lang was about to leave.

Seeing Qin Lang go out in the cold rain to buy medicine for her, Tao Ruoxiang was naturally touched. She said to Qin Lang, "Don't rush back. Take a hot shower here. The student dorms don't have hot water."

Qin Lang always took cold showers in the dorm, but Tao Ruoxiang's suggestion was too tempting. Thinking of the lingering scent of her body in the bathroom, Qin Lang felt a surge of excitement, but he said, "That's not quite right. Won't it cause any inconvenience for you?"

Tao Ruoxiang seemed to consider it seriously and then nodded, "You're right, it might not be good."

Qin Lang felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head, thinking to himself that he shouldn't have said anything about the inconvenience.

But then Tao Ruoxiang suddenly smiled, "Would Aunt Tao care about these things? Go take a shower quickly, don't delay your class tomorrow—cough, cough!"

Qin Lang was overjoyed and slipped into Tao Ruoxiang's bathroom. Unfortunately, the bathroom only had the scent of shower gel, not the legendary body scent. However, thinking that this was Tao Ruoxiang's private bathroom and the towels were ones she had used, Qin Lang felt a surge of excitement, even his little Qin Lang perked up.

Looking at his overly excited little brother, Qin Lang said softly while showering, "Little guy, your excitement won't help. I'm not Zhao Kan, I won't do anything here."

Indeed, taking a hot shower after being in the rain was very comfortable.

After the shower, Qin Lang saw a clean T-shirt with the school emblem on a chair by the bathroom door. It was probably given to teachers during the school sports meet, so it was quite loose. Tao Ruoxiang wouldn't normally wear such a T-shirt, but it was a good fit for Qin Lang.

After changing, Qin Lang saw that Tao Ruoxiang had already fallen asleep on the sofa, covered only by a thin blanket.

It was already very late, and Tao Ruoxiang must have been tired, so she fell asleep on the sofa.

But on the other hand, this also showed her trust in Qin Lang. If she didn't trust him, she wouldn't have let him take a shower and wouldn't have fallen asleep so soundly, which would have been like inviting a wolf into her home.

Seeing Tao Ruoxiang sleeping, Qin Lang didn't want to disturb her but couldn't leave her on the sofa. He bravely picked her up and laid her on the bed, covering her with a blanket. Despite the beastly thoughts in his mind, Qin Lang didn't make any inappropriate moves and quickly left Tao Ruoxiang's bedroom, turned off the TV and the lights, and almost ran out of her dormitory.

He couldn't help it; Qin Lang was afraid he might rush back.

Tao Ruoxiang's attraction to him was not just a little. But since she trusted him so much, Qin Lang couldn't take advantage of the situation. That would betray the trust they had built through life and death.

The next morning, the wind had stopped, and the rain had cleared.

The air in the early summer morning was incredibly fresh, with a faint floral scent.

The air seeped through the window cracks, and Tao Ruoxiang realized she had slept until morning, feeling refreshed and no longer sick.

"Oh no!"

Suddenly, Tao Ruoxiang remembered she had a class in the morning. She was already late. Had she not heard her alarm?

Tao Ruoxiang picked up her phone by the bed and saw that the alarm had been canceled.

"Qin Lang—this guy!"

Tao Ruoxiang thought it must have been Qin Lang. She was already more than half an hour late, and going to class now would be pointless. She remembered falling asleep on the sofa last night. Could Qin Lang have moved her to the bedroom? But it seemed he hadn't done anything inappropriate.

Tao Ruoxiang thought this guy had really gotten lucky, but she was also a bit puzzled. When had she started trusting him so much?

"Sigh, if I weren't his teacher, I wouldn't have this trouble," Tao Ruoxiang said to herself, lying on the pillow.

Since she had missed the class, she might as well stay in bed a bit longer and think about how to handle her relationship with this guy. Although Teacher Tao had graduated from university, due to certain reasons, her romantic experience was still a blank slate. So Qin Lang's presence really troubled her.
