Chapter 428: Can We Bathe Together?



Crystal lifted the purple flower to the front of Nathan’s eyes; the flower danced in the air happily.

“This is for you.”

Nathan didn’t catch it, however.

Crystal looked up at him, “Don’t you like it?”

“Yes, of course, I do.”

As Nathan answered, he took over the flower.

Crystal encircled her arms around his waist and whispered his name, “Nathan….”

“Huh?” Nathan replied with the purple flower tightly clenching in his hand.

“I used to neglect you, I’m sorry.”

“You never need to say sorry to me,” Nathan spoke in a hoarse voice.

Crystal raised her head, giggling at him. “But, your temper is always so unpredictable. You can make sweet talk in the last second but get furious in the next second.”

Nathan stared at her with affectionate eyes, “Do I?”

“Sure! Like just now, you told me to get off, but after I got off, you followed me up,” Crystal chuckled, “What on earth do you want me to do?”

Nathan gave her a sincere smile. “As you said, cherish the time of being together.”

His words slightly startled Crystal.

“Before we leave here,” he complimented.

Crystal took a look at her watch.

“That means we have less than a day.”

“Hmm.”

Crystal hugged him tightly.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

It didn’t matter. After leaving, Crystal could find Amos Davis and tell him about Nathan’s illness. She could promise him any request, as long as he could persuade Nathan into accepting treatment and help Nathan with his condition.

She was willing not to see Nathan forever; even if the terms of the exchange were her life, she would say yes.

She owed Nathan too much, and this was probably what she could do for him.

“Promise me, before we leave here, don’t lose your temper with me for no reason, okay?” Crystal bargained.

“I promise you,” Nathan answered.

“Are you cold? There are clothes in the trunk. I’ll get them for you.” Crystal let go of him, intending to walk back to the car, but he was again dragged back into Nathan’s arms.

“I’ve put them on. I’m warm now,” said Nathan.

He changed the topic, “Fine, what shall we do now?”

She looked around and sighed, “One day is short, but what I want to do with you is too much.”

“What do you want to do with me?”

“Cook together, have meals together, walk together, do the grocery shopping together, watch movies together…”

On thinking of the scenes that they did these things together, Crystal’s voice became slowly hoarse.

Nathan’s eyes dimmed. He raised her chin, kissed her deeply.

What he wanted to do most was to possess Crystal if she hadn’t been pregnant…

All of a sudden, there’s a noise near them. Nathan looked over with sharp eyes.

It’s the peasant woman.

The peasant woman was picking herbs for her husband, and when she passed here, she saw the young couple necking each other with gusto.

She hurriedly opened her mouth with embarrassment, “I… I was just passing by. I saw nothing, really… just go on.”

Then she turned around to leave.

“Stop!” Nathan called out to her. “Cook some food good for pregnant women,” ordered Nathan.

“Your girlfriend is pregnant?” The peasant woman hurried to nod and said, “I’ll cook the chicken soup with herbs for her tonight, the chicken could provide the mother and the embryo with nutrition.”

“Make some food good for the stomach,” Crystal added.

“Stomach?” The peasant woman trembled on hearing the word.

“Do you have gastritis?” She asked carefully.

Nathan’s face turned grim instantly.

“It’s gastric cancer, and it’s my boyfriend…” answered Crystal.

The peasant woman seemed to want to say something but was terrified beyond the capacity for words by Nathan’s horrible face.

“Why are you still here? Go away!” Nathan roared.

Quick trotting footsteps sounded immediately, and the peasant woman left.

Crystal took Nathan’s hands and blamed him, “I just asked you to control your temper. How can you break your promise so fast?”

“I’ve only promised not to lose my temper in front of you!” Arrogance wrote on Nathan’s face.

“Are you tired? Would you like to find a place to sit?” Nathan asked with concern.

Crystal shook, “I want to stay with you for another while.”

Nathan stared at her, pretending to be angry. “We can stay together everywhere. Let’s go back to the house.”

After the rain, the ground was wet, and even the wind was strong and moist.

The two walked back to the farmhouse slowly.

The chickens ran here and there in the yard, pecking on the soft and wet soil. Seeing Nathan and Crystal coming over, they jumped away to dodge at once.

The peasant woman had built a stove in the yard and was boiling the herbs for her husband. The herbal smell filled the whole yard.

Nathan frowned, thinking that the smell was really choking.

However, Crystal wasn’t that disgusted with the smell.

She sniffed and said, “What a strong herbal smell.”

Afraid that Crystal would get uncomfortable if she inhaled too much smell, Nathan led her to speed up entering the house.

Crystal noticed a basket on the floor filled with herbs, and some other herbs were put on a stand and dried in the sun.

“She seems to know well about herbs. See? She picked up the herbs and then dried them in the sun,” Crystal said to Nathan. Nathan knocked her head gently.

“This place is in the middle of nowhere, far

from the hospital. Isn’t it normal to know some simple medical knowledge?”

Crystal nodded with a thoughtful expression on her face.

Nathan was right. If they knew nothing about medical treatment, they had to go far to see a doctor, even if it was just for some minor illness or small injury.

That would be very troublesome.

“Just get in,” Nathan urged and pushed Crystal into the house.

He was never interested in minding other businesses.

After entering the house, Nathan immediately wrapped her in a blanket.

The stove was still blazing, making the whole space warm.

Nathan held her on the thighs, and the two sat around the stove.

Leaning on Nathan’s chest, Crystal felt warm and comfortable and a little sleepy. But she dared not sleep for fear that once she fell asleep and woke up, the precious one day passed, and Nathan already left.

She clenched his hands tightly, struggling with the sleepiness.

Nathan seemed to see through her mind.

He coaxed her, “Just sleep, I won’t leave.”

Failing to defeat the sleepiness, Crystal shrunk in his arms and sounded him out, “Then I take a nap?”

“Um.”

Finally, Crystal fell asleep; it wasn’t a good sleep.

Fearful that Nathan would disappear after her waking up, she kept half awake.

It turns out that this is the anxious feeling about gains and losses…

The faint incense of food wafted from the kitchen, Crystal gradually woke up. The dinner was very nutritious and of good taste.

At the dinner, Crystal chatted with the peasant woman. The peasant woman told her that she had put some herbs into the soup, which were suitable for pregnant women and patients.

After dinner, Nathan and Crystal sat in the yard, sitting on small benches and looking at stars.

After the rain, the sky was studded with twinkling stars.

“Tomorrow must be a sunny day,” said Crystal.

“The weather forecast said that?” Nathan asked.

“Nope,” Crystal shook, “but if there are stars in the sky, it’s usually a sunny day the next day.”

“Isn’t it a good thing to be sunny?” Nathan heard the desolation in her tone.

“No, I don’t think so. I hope it rains tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and forever.”

Crystal rested her head on Nathan’s shoulder, added, “In this way, we will be trapped here and can never leave.”

Nathan’s hand around Crystal’s shoulder began to stiffen.

Crystal chuckled, “In fact, it’s not bad to stay here. Your father won’t be able to find us here, right?”

Nathan did not utter a word but turned his face away.

The late-night came.

Nathan carried Crystal back to the room the peasant woman prepared for them.

The door was ajar. The peasant woman knocked on the door and came in with a bucket of hot water holding in her hands.

“Are you ready to go to bed? I’ve got you hot water for bathing,” said the peasant woman.

Nathan nodded condescendingly, as lofty as a king.

Crystal found that there was a large round barrel on the other side of the room.

“There are some herbs and medicinal flowers in the water. It’s good for you,” added the peasant woman.

“Can we bathe together?” Nathan asked.

He was asking if the herbs were suitable for both pregnant women and patients with gastric cancer at the same time.
