An elegant and highly readable English translation of the chapter, with careful attention to cultural adaptation, consistent terminology, and smooth narrative flow:
"It was last night. The big snake broke my heart."
Qiao Xixi was rendered speechless.
Sunxiao, who happened to be walking over, raised his foot and kicked Sangze right in the butt.
Sangze let out a muffled groan, turned his head, and buried his entire face in Qiao Xixi's embrace. "Xixi, look. Not only did he break my heart, but he also hurt my body."
Qiao Xixi's eyebrows twitched. She pinched his mouth open and directly poured the medicine in.
"MMPH."
Sangze looked at Qiao Xixi with a complaining gaze. A flash of black mist swirled around him, and he transformed back into his human form.
"This taste..."
"How is it? Does it taste awful?"
Sangze rested his chin on her shoulder, his voice deep and seductive. "It tastes as sweet as you."
