Ye Qiu originally just wanted to come over and take a look at the other person. If he felt there was no problem, he was ready to head back to the Chinese community area."Doctor Ye, are you leaving?" Liliya asked.
"Your father asked me to stay here for a few days."
However, in Ye Qiu’s view, Siberia now seemed to be all icy and snowy, just the same everywhere. He wondered what fun could be found here?
"Then you should stay here for a few days. I have natural hot springs here."
Natural hot springs?
Soaking in hot springs in the middle of winter would definitely be the most comfortable.
But, outdoor hot springs that haven’t been modified are definitely not suitable; either they’re too cold or too hot.
"Really? I’ll go and have a look."
When Liliya led the two to the backyard of the Gothic-style building, Ye Qiu already saw a lot of steam drifting out.
When he went over to look, he discovered it really was a hot spring, and it was a natural one at that.
Here the water temperature was probably around seventy-five degrees Celsius, but since the outside temperature was more than twenty degrees below zero, soaking in the hot springs now should still be the most comfortable.
The hot spring water here had that sulfur smell, which was a clear sign of being natural.
Although there are many hot spring resorts back home, many are fake hot springs, just artificially heated water, purely for profit.
Real natural hot springs are often related to underground heat or volcanoes, which is also the reason hot springs in the East Ocean are so famous.
"Soaking in the hot springs here is not bad. I’m planning to soak in the hot springs tonight."
"Ye Qiu, what are you talking about?"
"There are hot springs here. We’ll soak in the hot springs here later."
"Really?"
Zhou Wenting went over to test the water temperature and realized it really was.
"Doctor Ye, Miss Zhou, I’ll get someone to prepare some things for you."
After Liliya left, Zhou Wenting said, "I didn’t expect this Russian beauty to be so hospitable."
"I saved her father’s life. Naturally, both father and daughter would be hospitable."
Liliya went out to find a maid to prepare new bathrobes and towels for them.
And then sent over after they were ready.
Liliya also went out.
And left a maid outside to follow Ye Qiu’s instructions.
"Wenting, aren’t you going to take off your clothes and get in?"
"Won’t someone see?"
Ye Qiu checked carefully and found no surveillance cameras or anything like that.
"No."
Only then did Zhou Wenting take off her military coat, and also that set of dress, long socks, etc.
Although she had been bathing lately, it was not very comfortable.
Now after taking off her clothes, only some private garments were left. She first tested the water temperature at the side, allowing her hands and feet to gradually adapt, then splashed some water on her chest before finally entering the hot spring pool that was about two meters deep.
Upon entering, she found it was indeed very comfortable.
"Ye Qiu, hurry and get down."
The two had been intimate before, but she hadn’t completely given herself to Ye Qiu like this time, so Zhou Wenting naturally didn’t mind anything else.
After Ye Qiu undressed and got in.
Zhou Wenting swam over and personally massaged Ye Qiu.
After about half an hour, Zhou Wenting felt tired.
Soaking in a hot spring easily creates hunger and thirst, which was now the case with Zhou Wenting.
"Ye Qiu, I’m a little thirsty."
"Maid outside, come in for a moment."
Ye Qiu called out.
Soon, the young Russian maid came in.
"Go get some drinks and fruits, and if there’s red wine, bring some as well."
The maid then left.
Zhou Wenting lay down beside, feeling that after this soak, she would surely sleep very comfortably tonight.
She didn’t expect there to be such hot springs here.
Of course, Siberia is vast, and it has all kinds of resources beneath, not just hot springs, possibly even dormant volcanoes.
Before long, the maid and Liliya returned, bringing some drinks, fruits, and red wine.
Normally, if it was back home, ginger tea would be the best to serve, but how could they possibly have that here?
When seeing Ye Qiu, for some reason, Liliya felt a bit shy.
"Doctor Ye, are the hot springs here okay?"
"They’re alright."
Zhou Wenting thought Liliya would also get in to soak in the hot springs, but realized she didn’t; she just brought things over, said a few words to Ye Qiu, and left.
While Zhou Wenting ate and replenished her energy, she re-entered the hot spring.
Around ten in the evening, the two stopped soaking in the hot springs.
After washing up, they draped themselves in the bathrobes Liliya had prepared and followed the maid to an upstairs guest room to stay.
The guest room was also very large.
Of course, everything was electrified now, unlike Count Charley’s big castle.
Upon entering, they found not only was the room large, but everything inside was huge, including that clean big bed.
"If you’re tired, just go to sleep first."
"Ye Qiu, I’ll sleep first then."
Zhou Wenting lay on the big bed, and with the heating and quilts, it was extremely comfortable, feeling like the temperature was maintained at around twenty degrees Celsius inside.
Ye Qiu stood at the window looking out, able to see very far, all just a vast whiteness at a glance.
There was no moonlight visible here, so cultivation was definitely not possible, and he wondered whether the sun would be visible tomorrow.
Tomorrow he would have to go back to treat those patients.
Otherwise, without effective Western medicine developed here, those patients would still be very much in pain.
Around eleven, Ye Qiu turned off the lights, lay down, and slept beside the soft Zhou Wenting, holding her.
Unsure how much time had passed.
He abruptly opened his eyes.
He sensed a very intense sense of danger.
Was this directed at him?
Ye Qiu suddenly woke up.
Zhou Wenting was still asleep.
In his hurry to get up and dress, he quietly opened the door and looked outside, seeing several figures in the night, all moving stealthily.
These people seemed to be Russians.
But how did they get in here in the middle of the night?
Clearly, it was either directed at Boss Yakov, or it had to do with Liliya.
Ye Qiu didn’t have Liliya’s phone contact, and calling might alert those people.
Ye Qiu first closed the door, then stealthily went downstairs.
As he approached those figures, he threw small stones at them, which they didn’t understand at first, until they felt their heads bleeding.
At this point, Ye Qiu already headed towards Liliya’s room.
He knew Yakov was staying in another room, so it was obvious that Liliya lived here.
Upon entering her room, Ye Qiu could smell a very fragrant scent—this must be the perfume Liliya usually wears.
