Instantly, the faint feeling of heat in my body disappeared.

The force that had been suppressing my emotions was finally released, returning to a state of free control.

"I really owe you, Doctor Eirin."

Chu Bai said sincerely:

"Without you, the Scarlet Devil Mansion would have really been done for by this ancient virus."

Eirin smiled and shook her head:

"Actually, Remilia's power could also have worked."

"Abilities involving causality can completely eliminate this virus from its source."

"But the prerequisite is that she slowly recovers first, until she can use her abilities… which would definitely be much slower than the current speed."

As she spoke, she looked at Chu Bai with a meaningful gaze:

"By that time, I'm afraid your body wouldn't be able to hold on, would it?"

"Ah… about that…"

Chu Bai was a little embarrassed; clearly, Eirin had noticed his almost-drained body.

Eirin didn't continue to tease him but instead took a few bottles of medicine from the nearby shelf:

"These are for strengthening your foundation, nourishing your essence, and improving your physical weakness. Take them and drink them according to the instructions."

"With your constitution, you should be able to recover after a day or two of rest."

Chu Bai gratefully accepted the medicine.

He felt that the importance of this batch of medicine was even greater than the antidote just now.

Before leaving, he whispered to Eirin:

"By the way, don't tell Kaguya that I've become weak."

"If she finds out, I'm afraid I'll be teased mercilessly."

Eirin smiled faintly:

"Don't worry, I won't tell her."

"And even if she really knew, I don't think she would gloat but would instead feel guilty…"

"Huh? Why?"

"It's nothing, I'm just talking nonsense. Hurry up and go back to the Scarlet Devil Mansion to get treated."

……

……

Saying goodbye to Eirin.

Chu Bai and Flan flew all the way again.

Finally, as night fell, they returned to the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

"Finally back."

After entering the gate, Chu Bai couldn't help but exclaim:

"First the Celestial World, then the Netherworld, and then I went to Eientei, which is related to the moon."

"I really ran around a lot today."

Flan yawned widely:

"That's right, Flan is a little sleepy."

"Then go and rest first; leave this to me."

Before coaxing Flan into the basement, Chu Bai sprayed two doses of the antidote into her mouth to prevent her from being infected.

Then, he went alone to the Great Library and sprayed the antidote on Sakuya, Patchouli, Koakuma, and a group of fairy maids.

Finally, he went to the top floor and sprayed two doses into the mouths of the mistress and young mistress.

After ensuring that there were no more infected people in the Scarlet Devil Mansion, Chu Bai reached out and dispelled the sleep spell that Patchouli had set up.

"Ugh…"

Sakuya was the first to wake up.

After all, among everyone present, she had the best physique.

But the moment she regained consciousness, she immediately collapsed to the ground, half-crouching.

She exerted herself back and forth for a long time before barely standing up.

"So… so uncomfortable… my head is spinning…"

"And my stomach… it's so bloated…"

"What exactly happened…"

Sakuya shook her dizzy head.

As a result, when she looked carefully, she realized that Chu Bai was actually standing in front of her.

"Chu… Mr. Chu Bai?"

The moment she heard Sakuya's voice.

Chu Bai bowed 90 degrees, performing a standard Japanese apology:

"Sakuya-san, honto ni sumimasen deshita!"

"Eh?"

Sakuya was startled and quickly tried to help Chu Bai.

But at the same time, her chaotic brain gradually became clear.

A series of absurd actions during the virus infection, as well as their confusing behavior of leaving marks everywhere in the Scarlet Devil Mansion…

A series of related memories flooded into her mind all at once.

Immediately, Sakuya's face turned red, and her originally questioning words turned into a stuttering response:

"Ah… that… thank you for the treat…?"

"…Eh?"

Chapter 241: First Day of Abstinence! The Head Maid's Endurance Training!

"Ah, no, what I mean is…"

Accidentally blurting out her inner thoughts.

Sakuya quickly waved her hand.

But she quickly forced herself to calm down.

Taking a few deep breaths, she finally returned to her usual suave and composed self as the head maid:

"In any case, please raise your head first, Mr. Chu Bai."

"I am not worth your apology, because this matter itself was an accident."

"And if we have to say it, I took the initiative to attack; on the contrary, you are the victim of this incident."

"That's what you say…"

Chu Bai still said apologetically:

"But the matter itself is that I was on the advantageous side, and Sakuya-san also paid a great price…"

"Mr. Chu Bai, I didn't expect you to be quite traditional."

Sakuya smiled softly.

Her cheeks were still a little flushed, but her tone gradually became firm:

"I had sworn a long time ago that I would serve the mistress forever, until the end."

"I have never placed the relationship between men and women in my heart, so how can I suffer a loss?"

"Rather than uselessly taking responsibility, I hope you can listen to my small request."

Chu Bai nodded:

"No problem, tell me."

"Even if you want me to take responsibility, I will fully accept it."

"No, on the contrary…"

Sakuya shook her head slightly:

"I hope you will let this matter pass, as if nothing had happened, can you?"

"Eh?"

Chu Bai was slightly stunned.

He heard Sakuya continue to explain:

"If you want to take responsibility for me, then what about the mistress? How should I get along with the mistress?"

"After all, no matter what, a master and servant serving one person is a bit… too chaotic, right…"

Chu Bai fell silent.

Sakuya said this, which is actually equivalent to confessing for Remilia.

And Chu Bai's emotional intelligence is already different from what it used to be; of course, he can also perceive Remilia's feelings.

But he had long promised Xiaoyai that he would never add to his harem again.

So his attitude towards Remilia has always been like a father taking care of his daughter.

Even if he occasionally creates an ambiguous atmosphere, he will gloss over it with jokes.

"Actually, I already have a girlfriend."

After hesitating for a while, Chu Bai still said to Sakuya:

"So I definitely can't respond to the mistress's feelings…"

"It's okay, anyway, Gensokyo is so chaotic, it's normal to open a harem or something."

Sakuya is very open-minded:

"Anyway, the mistress still has a chance."

"As long as she still has hope, I can't join your harem."

"After all, a maid is still a maid and cannot stand on the same level as the master."

Sakuya showed a carefree smile:

"So can Mr. Chu Bai agree to my request?"

"It's okay to be honest with your girlfriend, but please keep it a secret from the mistress, and then let's pretend that this never happened between us."

"…Okay."

Since the person involved has said so, Chu Bai can only agree.

After all, taking responsibility for this kind of thing cannot be solved by being overbearing and forceful.

Really adding Sakuya to the harem would indeed put the relationship between the master and servant in an awkward position.

"But there is one thing I still want to remind you."

Seeing Sakuya preparing to get up and clean up the scene.

Chu Bai immediately added:
