My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig (Loud and Lily) novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72 

Daniel immediately understood and went to get a bucket from the bathroom. He had learned his lesson from last time, so he brought a few more just in case. Daniel had just gotten the bucket when Loid’s stomach churned, and he threw up a mouthful of blood 

There was quite a lot of blood, but the color was fainter than before. This time, there was a reddish tinge to it. The last time Loid had thrown up blood, it had been pitch–black, as if it was ink. Loid only stopped after throwing up two bucketfuls of blood mixed with water. 

Lily glanced at Daniel. “Pour the medicine that’s cooking in the kitchen into the bathtub while keeping it on a simmer in the pot. Scoop some out every 15 minutes, and keep doing it until you’ve filled the bathtub. 

Daniel was completely won over by Lily, and he did as she said without any doubts. 

Shaun looked at how weak Loid was and said worriedly, “He’s thrown up so much blood. He won’t die, will he?” 

Lily looked up. She had one hand resting on Loid’s pulse, and she said in a measured tone, “He’s throwing up the toxins. At first, he didn’t have much of a reaction to it. But the more he throws up, the cleaner his blood will become. 

“After that, he’ll experience dizziness, weakness, and other symptoms. It’s normal. He’ll recover after taking some supplements.” 

“That’s no problem. I’ll bring supplements tomorrow so that we can build up his strength.” Shaun was finally relieved. 

After Lily had taken Loid’s pulse, she propped her chin in one hand and stared intently at him. Her long eyelashes fluttered, and there was a sly glint in her eye. “Don’t take too many supplements. You’re not that strong, so it might be overkill if you take too many.” 

She was referring to his prowess in bed. 

Shaun and Loid both remained silent, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. 

Shaun blushed hotly, and he remained red for quite a while. He looked at Lily, then back at Loid, and finally said defeatedly, “Loid, I’ll get going.” 

As he was about to leave, he stopped once more and looked at Loid. After some time, he finally squeezed out the words, “Do something about your girlfriend.” 

When Shaun had left, Loid finally recovered. He stared intently at Lily with a gleam in his ink–black eyes. After a while, he leaned forward slightly and put his lips to her ear. “How come I didn’t know that I wasn’t strong?” 

His warm breath tickled her face, and she flushed slightly for no reason at all. They were very close to each other, and she could smell the scent of tobacco on him. Lily did not like the smell of cigarettes, but she was not opposed to Loid’s scent. 

The two of them gazed into each other’s eyes for a long time before Lily looked away and said blithely, Do you know anything about medicine?” 

There was nothing wrong with Loid’s energy in bed, but Lily was angry that he had lied about Jason and wanted to use the opportunity to tease him. 

Unexpectedly, she was the one who was unable to look him in the eye.

Loid had no answer to that. 

Fine! Since she was the one who was skilled in medicine, he’d have to take her word for it! 

At that moment, Daniel was finally done filling the bathtub after having gone back and forth a few times. He came out and said respectfully to Lily, “Ms. Brooks, it’s done.” 

Lily made a noise of assent and followed Loid into the bathroom. Daniel did not follow as Loid had told him to leave.
