Shocked! I've become a female-dominated powerhouse!

"Does it hurt?"

Miao Yi sensed that something was wrong with the boy and thought it was because she had cut his ankle and it hurt.

"Hmm." Mu Shengyuan vaguely heard Miao Yi's voice, and he hid all his gloom.

When he looked up, he saw Miao Yi's concerned expression, and for some reason, Mu Shengyuan suddenly felt like crying.

This isn't an act; it's his true self...

"Then I'll be gentler." Upon hearing the boy's words, Miao Yi reached out and covered the boy's wound.

Mu Shengyuan felt that the burning pain had been replaced by a touch of warmth, turning the fiery pain into a cool sensation that brought him some comfort.

However, Mu Shengyuan couldn't hold back at this moment either.

pat!

A tear rolled down her cheek, tracing a path down her fair face, possessing an unusual beauty that left Miao Yi feeling somewhat bewildered.

She felt that his crying this time was different from many of the previous times; there was something indescribable lingering in her heart, a slight feeling of unease.

"You..." Why are you crying?

Miao Yi instinctively reached out to wipe away the other person's tears, but her hand was holding the boy's ankle with one hand and guiding the insects out with the other.

So there was no hand to wipe the other person's face.

"If it really hurts, I'll be gentler. Don't cry." This wasn't the first time Miao Yi had seen a man cry, but this time, she felt a pang of unease.

But whether it was Miao Yi's words or something else, Mu Shengyuan, who had been able to suppress his tears for the time being, started shedding them one after another like golden beans.

"Xiao Ai." When Miao Yi saw this, she felt even more depressed. She twitched her eyebrows slightly but couldn't relax for a moment.

"Dr. Miao?" Xiao Ai, still carrying a small saucer on her head, answered somewhat confusedly.

"Stabilize his leg," Miao said, and quickly switched positions with Xiao Ai. If the plate fell to the ground, any insects that came out would fall onto the plate.

Miao Yi finally had a free hand, and she reached out somewhat frantically, wanting to wipe away the other person's tears.

"My lady..." Mu Shengyuan's voice was trembling with sobs, and because of the tears in his eyes, he stared at the other person with a somewhat hazy and unreal look in his eyes. Mu Shengyuan subconsciously called out to the other person.

"Hmm, does it hurt a lot? I've been trying to be gentle." Miao Yi didn't know that the more she tried to wipe away the other person's tears, the more the other person cried.

"Hmm, I'm not in pain." Mu Shengyuan nodded and shook his head as he listened to Miao Yi's gentle voice, feeling that this person was... too gentle.

Unconsciously, Mu Shengyuan revealed his true feelings, and he cried as he said:

"But please don't be so good to me, please don't be so good to me." He was afraid he couldn't handle it, nor could he let it go...

"What are you saying? I told you I would protect you. If I'm not good to you, who else would I be good to?" Miao Yi didn't quite understand what the boy meant, but she still followed her principle of being responsible.

"Don't cry, okay? If it hurts... bite me?" Miao Yi couldn't think of a good way to deal with it for a while. In the end, she watched her wipe away her tears more and more, and her hands were covered with more and more tears.

Finally, as if making some kind of decision, he put his hand to the other person's mouth.

"Dr. Miao, you can't! Your hands are precious divine hands, the hope for creating miracles. They can't be bitten. If they get hurt, it will be a loss for the entire universe!!!" Xiao Ai immediately warned, realizing that Dr. Miao's actions might hurt him.

Miao Yi paused upon hearing Xiao Ai's words, but showed no intention of withdrawing her hand. Instead, she kept it near the boy's lips, as if he could bite her hand with just a slight opening of his mouth.

Looking at the hand placed in front of him, Mu Shengyuan thought of Xiao Ai's words, and his heart full of tears gradually subsided.

Although he didn't quite understand what Xiao Ai meant, he grasped the general idea: that Miao Yi's hands were very important.

"I'll bite you and it'll hurt," Mu Shengyuan said, glancing at Miao Yi's hand.

“I’m not afraid of pain, bite me.” Miao Yi said without even blinking.

But Mu Shengyuan thought back to their wedding night, and he roughly knew that this person was afraid of pain and didn't like trouble.

But she actually said she wasn't afraid of pain.

Mu Shengyuan was at a loss for words. He looked at Miao Yi, who was speaking so seriously, and shook his head.

"It will hurt." Just like what he said to Xiao Ai.

"It's alright, you won't get hurt." What Miao Yi said was true. As long as she used her mental power, no matter how the boy bit her, he wouldn't hurt her.

But Mu Shengyuan didn't know that when he saw Miao Yi's serious expression, he was even a little moved.

He continued to shake his head.

"I'm not crying anymore." Mu Shengyuan wiped her face clean herself, looking at him with an "look at me" expression.

Miao Yi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the other person had finally stopped crying.

"If you're in pain, tell me, don't cry anymore." Miao Yi's voice was gentler than usual, but Miao Yi didn't even notice.

"Okay." Mu Shengyuan nodded obediently. He was most familiar with human nature, so he felt warm inside at Miao Yi's slight change.

Moreover... his tone and expression just now didn't seem like that of a fool at all, so how could Miao Yi not have noticed anything?

Mu Shengyuan was a little confused.

Looking at Miao Yi again, he was already looking down and carefully fiddling with his feet.

Looking at the Gu worms, Mu Shengyuan's heart grew colder and harder.

These worms become increasingly difficult to emerge later on, unlike the initial few which emerged quite easily.

So it took Miao Yi quite a while to expel all the worms from the boy's body.

"Come here and let me smell it." Miao Yi thought it was about right, but she was still a little worried. She sat on the small stool and tilted her head slightly to look at the boy sitting in the armchair.

Mu Shengyuan paused upon hearing Miao Yi's words, a rare look of agitation on his face.

Although he initially acted like a fool and didn't pretend to let Miao Yi smell the fragrance, now... perhaps because of what just happened, he's surprisingly a little embarrassed...

"Look down, hurry up," Miao urged, even beckoning to the boy.

Mu Shengyuan: ...

"Hmm... Hmm..." He hadn't felt anything before, but now... he felt a little awkward.

I hesitated a bit when I looked down.

Miao Yi didn't have that many thoughts; she just wanted to check if there were any other insects on Mu Shengyuan's body.

Seeing that the other person was moving slowly, she even reached out and pulled him.

Mu Shengyuan: ...
