Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

The sound was tender and contained a slight hint of inhibited endurance.

In that moment, Lu Changsheng immediately realized that Lu Miaoge was very likely awake.

Lu Changsheng wanted to speak up, but for a moment, he didn’t know what to say.

Looking at Lu Miaoge with her beautiful eyes tightly shut and suppressing her voice, Lu Changsheng suddenly understood.

In this situation, it wasn’t just him who felt awkward.

Lu Miaoge felt awkward too.

She didn’t know how to face him either.

After all, Lu Miaoge’s personality was gentle and aloof.

Her heartfelt confessions earlier had been prompted by the face of impending death.

Now, having revived and under these circumstances, it naturally made Lu Miaoge uncertain how to react.

Like an ostrich, she continued to pretend to be unconscious, trying hard not to make any sound.

Understanding the gist of the situation, and seeing Lu Miaoge like this, Lu Changsheng thought of a way to alleviate the awkwardness.

His palm gently caressed Lu Miaoge’s back, smooth as white jade and flawless as if the injuries had never existed.

At this moment, the injured skin on her back had healed completely, smooth like jade, leaving no trace of wounds.

Then, Lu Changsheng gently embraced Lu Miaoge.

Burying his head into her slender, jade-like neck, he inhaled the faint fragrance of her hair.

In these conditions, Lu Miaoge still kept her beautiful eyes firmly shut.

But her pale cheeks were flushed to the tips of her ears, her breathing somewhat rapid.

The words spoken before dying.

The situation at the moment.

Made Lu Miaoge feel so embarrassed and ashamed, she wished she hadn’t woken up, that she had just died instead.

But then she thought of Lu Changsheng’s worried and caring look.

Right now, the treatment he was giving her was solely to save her life.

She could distinctly feel the continuous flow of vitality entering her body through this method, healing her injuries.

And her injuries had been contained; it was just that she still felt incredibly weak.

Knowing that Lu Changsheng’s actions definitely involved significant sacrifice.

Otherwise, with the severity of her injuries, she would have been beyond saving.

“Mmm~”

As her thoughts scattered, with Lu Changsheng’s treatment speeding up, Lu Miaoge gradually found it harder to suppress her body’s instincts, clinging tightly to the sheets, biting her lips.

Hoping for Lu Changsheng to finish the treatment soon so he would leave.

Otherwise, she really didn’t know how to confront Lu Changsheng.

After all, she had a fondness for Lu Changsheng, but her feelings weren’t yet deep.

Usually, she somewhat regarded him as a younger brother.

Moreover, nominally, Lu Changsheng was her brother-in-law.

To be in such a state with her brother-in-law…

Lu Changsheng, of course, had no idea what Lu Miaoge was thinking.

He continued tirelessly, growing more vigorous in his efforts.

After all, Lu Miaoge’s condition was indeed still weak, and needed stabilizing through treatment.

He was also observing Lu Miaoge’s condition, gauging her limits, careful not to take his teasing too far.

After all, such matters had to be taken one step at a time.

Time ticked away.

“How much longer will this last, if I don’t wake up, will Changsheng keep going like this?”

“But isn’t it said in the book…”

Lu Miaoge gasped for air, her entire body felt slack like mud under the treatment.

Unaware of how much longer Lu Changsheng would take.

She thought to herself that she should have spoken up when she woke up.

Now numb and limp, she didn’t even have the strength to talk.

At that moment, seeing Lu Miaoge sweating profusely and her feet arched in tension, Lu Changsheng knew her condition was temporarily stable and he let out a low growl, ending the treatment.

Afterward, he collapsed as if completely drained of energy, falling into unconsciousness.

“Changsheng?”

Lu Miaoge came back to her senses from the lingering aftermath and saw Lu Changsheng lying motionless. She couldn’t help but call out to him twice.

But seeing that Lu Changsheng gave no response, her heart couldn’t help but race, her mind in turmoil.

She worried that Lu Changsheng might have harmed himself in the process of saving her.

“Pop~”

Lu Miaoge pursed her lips slightly, and propped herself up a bit to look at Lu Changsheng.

She immediately saw Lu Changsheng’s handsome face, which was exhausted and pale.

“Changsheng?”

Lu Miaoge called out with concern, wanting to check on Lu Changsheng’s condition.

And just at that moment, Lu Changsheng opened his tired eyes.

“Sister Miaoge, you’re awake.

That’s great…”

Lu Changsheng looked at Lu Miaoge and showed a weak but happy smile.

“Changsheng, are you all right?”

Lu Miaoge asked concernedly.

“I’m fine, just a bit drained, cough cough…”

Lu Changsheng spoke softly,”Sister Miaoge, I’m sorry, at that time… cough, cough, cough… I wasn’t thinking about much, I just wanted to save you, so….”

After a moment of silence,

Lu Miaoge, with a complex look in her eyes, bit her lip gently, and said softly, “Changsheng, don’t blame yourself, thank you for saving me.”

“Sister Miaoge, I will take responsibility… cough, cough, when the time comes, I will ask the Family Head for your hand in marriage… Would you like to marry me…?”

Lu Changsheng continued, his face weak but filled with hope.

“Marry, a proposal.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Miaoge’s mind was in chaos.

She didn’t quite know how to reply for a while.

The pace of this change in their relationship was too rapid.

It took her a moment to adjust, to come back to her senses from the current situation.

“Sister Miaoge, don’t you want to?”

Lu Changsheng said somewhat disheartened.

“Changsheng, can you give me some time?”

Lu Miaoge, holding one of Lu Changsheng’s hands, looked into his eyes tenderly.

“Cough, cough… okay…”

Lu Changsheng nodded gently.

He knew that Lu Miaoge must be feeling very confused right now.

The deed was already done; there was no need to rush at this moment.

“Changsheng, are you sure you’re all right?”

“To save me, you must have paid a significant price, right?”

Lu Miaoge said, with a face full of concern.

Lu Changsheng looked as if he had something to say but couldn’t bring himself to say it.

After a moment of silence, he said, “I’m… I’m fine, I just need some rest.”

“Changsheng, please tell me the truth.”

Seeing Lu Changsheng looking like this, how could Lu Miaoge possibly believe that he was fine?

“Sister Miaoge, you should know that I have some secrets. This time it was a type of dual cultivation secret technique,” Lu Changsheng confessed quietly.

“Mhm, I know, I do not blame you.”

“Changsheng, everyone has their secrets, I realized early on you were different from ordinary cultivators.”

“Don’t worry, I will definitely keep your secret safe,” Lu Miaoge immediately asserted, her pale face turning serious as she raised her hand as if to swear.

“I naturally trust you, Sister Miaoge. What I mean is, this type of healing belongs to a kind of dual cultivation technique.”

“If I wish to recover slowly, I must use another kind of dual cultivation secret technique….”

Lu Changsheng said with a wry smile.

After hearing his words, Lu Miaoge blushed deeply, her embarrassment reaching her ears.

But considering their current situation, she bit her lip and nodded.

Afterward, Lu Changsheng passed on the Tender Embrace Technique to Lu Miaoge.
