The Credentials of a Couple (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 162
“The blood collection is all done. I’ll make arrangements to send it to the capital as soon as possible.”
I couldn’t go to the capital myself right now, but the research on the cure had to continue. I stared at the syringe filled with crimson blood. I didn’t know how research could possibly proceed with blood alone, but if it helped, I was willing to give as much as needed.
“If you need more blood—”
“His Lordship won’t permit any more. That would be disobedience.”
“It’s only blood.”
“His Lordship’s orders are never ‘only’ anything.”
She said it firmly, even while smiling. I frowned as I watched Pimir, who held up the syringe and flashed me a wide grin. Despite one eye swollen black and blue, she laughed as easily as ever.
“It hurts, but I’m fine.”
“…”
“My main profession is actually a physician, though I do fight when I have to. I can treat injuries like this myself.”
“Your main profession is a physician?”
“People usually call me Doctor Pim.”
I tilted my head, eyeing her muscular frame barely concealed by her lab coat. Trained as she clearly was, she looked far more like a soldier than a doctor.
“There are plenty of rough characters in the army. Dealing with them, I naturally picked up how to handle myself—and sometimes I’m even deployed in combat.”
Pimir quickly added this explanation upon noticing my gaze, but it still wasn’t enough for me to nod in agreement. Even I, completely ignorant of martial arts, could sense the aura of a true warrior about her—this wasn’t just someone who’d casually picked up a few moves.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
