CHAPTER 163: CHAPTER 57 HALF A MONTH PASSED

Ke Lian’s piercing gaze fell on Chen Yin’s arms holding Du Xixi, and a cold snort slowly escaped his lips as Chen Yin shivered reflexively, hugging Du Xixi tighter.

Ke Lian glanced nonchalantly at Chen Yin’s swollen head, which resembled a giant pig’s head, and eventually decided to let go of his brother-in-law, whom he had just beaten up.

Seeing Chen Yin looking at her pitifully, as if expecting her to "avenge him," Du Xixi twitched the corners of her mouth, poking his face for a while, then her eyes lit up as she said, "This feels pretty good!"

Chen Yin’s face was naturally handsome and angular, but due to his long-term busy work schedule, it was quite lean. After being beaten into a "giant pig’s head," it gained some swelling, and the texture was surprisingly soft.

Chen Yin: ...

He was waiting for Du Xixi to stand up for him and bully Ke Lian back, yet Du Xixi had this kind of reaction!

"Xixi~" Chen Yin shook Du Xixi’s legs, making her hold her waist in helplessness and softly say, "Alright, you get up first."

Chen Yin thought Du Xixi was going to confront Ke Lian, so he quickly jumped off the ground, held Du Xixi’s arm, and intended to lead her to the sofa. However, Du Xixi waved her hand, signaling him to wait, then stretched out her hands before Chen Yin’s confused gaze.

Du Xixi’s soft palms were clean that Chen Yin blinked his eyes, only to find white points of light emerging from them!

Chen Yin’s eyes widened, thinking he must be hallucinating from being beaten by Ke Lian, yet the light points did not disappear; instead, they increased in number, gathering into a large, white light ball.

The light ball floated in front of Du Xixi’s palm, roughly the size of both her palms combined, shining with a sacred glow, while points of light seemed to flow faintly within.

These light points seemed to emit an inexplicable attraction, prompting Chen Yin to lean his head closer. Just then, the light ball escaped Du Xixi’s control and rapidly flew toward Chen Yin, causing him to instinctively retreat a bit.

The light ball scattered like flying fireflies, enveloping Chen Yin’s entire head, some even flying to other injured parts of his body. Instantly, Chen Yin’s whole body seemed to be bathed in sacred light.

"This!" Chen Yin stiffened, not daring to move. He didn’t believe the light points from his sister would negatively affect him. However, he still felt somewhat resistant to unfamiliar things.

The firefly-like light points entered Chen Yin’s body, bringing waves of warmth that gradually dissipated the lingering pain.

As the last bit of light faded, Chen Yin reached up to touch his face; the swelling that Du Xixi thought had great texture was gone!

In a flash, Chen Yin vaguely thought of Du Xixi’s Spiritual Talent—Purification, which was the spiritual talent with an incredibly powerful healing ability!

Du Xixi cupped her older brother’s face, examining it from every angle. Seeing it healed spotless by her Spiritual Talent, she smiled contentedly, "Now, brother, you can go out and see people!"

Chen Yin smiled and patted Du Xixi’s head, helping her sit in the nearby chair, then leaned over, saying, "Good sister, you really care about your Ke Lian!"

Whether earlier or now, Du Xixi didn’t intend to "back up" Chen Yin, even helping to heal the wounds on Chen Yin’s face and body seemed partly meant to "destroy the evidence" for Ke Lian.

Without evidence of injury, who would believe Chen Yin if he claimed Ke Lian hit him? Given Ke Lian’s current reputation and the "love-hate relationship" between Ke Lian and Chen Yin over these years, everyone probably would jokingly say Chen Yin troubled Ke Lian again.

Du Xixi raised her brow, her smile unmistakably evident on her face.

—What are you talking about? I don’t understand!

Chen Yin’s smile deepened, helplessly and indulgently pinching Du Xixi’s slightly fleshy cheeks. What could he do? His sister was outgoing, so he might as well go with her.

had already placed the remaining large plates of pan-fried buns on the dining table. Without Du Xixi’s further invitation, Ke Lian and the other two came from the sofa.
