41. Morbid Eden
"Xiao Ling..."
A glint of obsession flashed in Aponya's eyes, forming a sharp contrast with her usual sacred demeanor.
A faint orchid fragrance emanated from her mouth as she softly called Ling's name.
It's just that the meaning and emotion contained in this voice are somewhat thought-provoking.
"Sister Aponia, what are you doing..." Ling finally came back to his senses, looked at the mess around him, and recalled what had just happened.
The feeling of being addicted to desire made him unable to forget it for a long time.
"Xiao Ling, let me help you put on your clothes." Aponia pursed her lips, her eyes full of Ling's figure.
It is a surrender from body to soul...
Looking at Aponia, who was so close to him, Ling swallowed his saliva. Although he didn't know why Aponia became like this but he subconsciously felt great.
"...Well, thank you for your help," Ling replied.
When Aponia's fingertips brushed across Ling's skin, Ling shuddered unconsciously.
Her meticulous care made Ling enjoy it immensely.
Ling probably knew something. The black singularity in his heart seemed to have turned Sister Aponia into someone who would only obey his orders.
He didn't know what it was, or even how it existed, or when it appeared in his spiritual world.
Looking at the pious Aponia in front of him, Ling's face was full of confusion.
"Xiao Ling, what's wrong?" Aponia tilted her head, trying to help Ling solve his problem.
"Um, Sister Aponia, I... didn't mean it." Ling sincerely apologized to Aponia.
Aponia still looked at Ling with some confusion, as if curious why Ling apologized to her.
"Sister Aponia, let me try and see if I can help you return to your original appearance."
If it is something that exists in my mind, then I should be able to control it, right?
Although he enjoyed the feeling, Ling still chose to try to liberate Aponia.
Maybe it was just because he felt he shouldn't have done that.
Aponia still seemed not to understand Ling's meaning, but she did not resist at all. She just stared at him with that obsessed look.
Ling seemed to have become the god in her heart...
Ling slowly exhaled his breath, relaxed his mind, placed his hands on Aponia's head, and entered her spiritual world.
This was the ability that Ling had suddenly acquired just now. During the spiritual battle not long ago, a warm current entered his body, and he found that he seemed to have mastered this power.
Aponia's spiritual world is very vast, yet filled with darkness.
Ling tried to mobilize the black singularity in his spiritual world and began to slowly absorb this dark aura.
Fortunately, nothing went wrong, and the black singularity could indeed be controlled by him.
As the dark aura was gradually absorbed back into Ling's body, Aponia's spiritual world slowly returned to its original state.
It was a golden world, exuding a sacred and compassionate atmosphere.
Outside, Aponia's eyes gradually regained clarity. Recalling what had just happened, a touching blush appeared on her face.
She knew that this was definitely not Xiao Ling's intention; otherwise, Xiao Ling would not have helped her recover.
Due to the long period of delicate operation, Ling's brain began to feel dizzy, and then he fell straight backward.
Aponia hurriedly caught him and carefully helped him to the bed.
Looking at that flawless face, Aponia couldn't help but recall the scene just now, and Ling in front of her suddenly seemed to become "delicious" again.
Aponia suddenly woke up and shook her head hurriedly. Why did she have such thoughts? Was it because the influence had not completely disappeared?
More importantly, how will she face Eden in the future...
Aponia stood up, cleaned up the mess around her, and then walked outside.
Eden and Elysia seemed to have just returned from shopping, and the three of them happened to meet.
"Eden..." Aponia's tone was filled with panic.
"Hmm... Why do I feel like you, Aponia... seem to have done something bad secretly?" Elysia noticed something and asked in a slightly puzzled tone.
"..." Aponia tried hard to remain calm.
"Okay, Ely, I believe Aponia is not that kind of person." Eden immediately tried to smooth things over.
"Of course, I believe Aponia, too! I was just joking~?" Elysia said without hesitation.
Aponia finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I wonder how my brother is doing? Is there any possibility of recovery?" Eden asked softly, asking about what she was most concerned about at the moment.
"I'm sorry, Eden. I explored Xiao Ling's spiritual world. It's very clean, as clean as a newborn baby...which means there is basically no possibility for Xiao Ling to recover his memories." Aponia said apologetically.
A hint of bitterness flashed in Eden's eyes, but she still managed a smile.
"It's okay, Aponia. I've already prepared myself mentally. It's fine this way... At least Xiao Ling is still by my side."
Hearing this, Aponia and Elysia looked at each other and saw some anxiety in each other's eyes.
Eden is planning to keep Ling under house arrest...
But isn't this somewhat unfair to him?
Ever since Xiao Ling came back to life, he has never left this place...
Eden's desire to protect Xiao Ling has begun to become pathological.
"Eden, when I was exploring Xiao Ling's spiritual world just now, I found that he was very eager to see the outside world... and he wanted to know what kind of person he was in the past," Aponia said to Eden.
Eden lowered her head, looking thoughtful.
Aponia was not lying about this. Everything about Ling here was carefully arranged by Eden. Although the house was big, it was indeed a little small compared to the vast world.
Moreover, he has a good understanding of the situation of his family members, except for himself...
He knew nothing about his past self. He was curious about why he lost his memory, his previous job, and what kind of person he was.
"If you keep imprisoning him in this cage called 'home', Xiao Ling's mental health will easily deteriorate," Aponia consoled.
"But..." Eden obviously still had some concerns.
"Eden, haven't you already used your resources to erase any news about that girl? And the Fire Moth will also block any news about her. After all, she is..."
Elysia added fuel to the fire, which made Eden feel a little relieved.
"Let me think about it..."
Eden walked silently towards Ling's room.
She didn't want to take any risks. If she lost her brother again, she would go crazy.
