Chapter 47 If It's Incurable, Jump off the Building
Facing Xia Liu's blunt inquiry, Huang Xue was momentarily dumbfounded. It was as if a friend had asked her right after meeting how many times she had been with her boyfriend last night and what positions they had used...
However, Huang Xue quickly came to her senses. After all, she was ill, Xia Liu was a doctor, and there was a very good chance he could cure her. She could only reply in a quiet, embarrassed voice, "It was taken care of twice, using those small motors the size of a thumb."
Gurgle!
Looking at Huang Xue, who was shyly lowering her head, Xia Liu forcefully swallowed, murmuring to himself, "What a waste of beauty, what a waste of beauty!"
"If we could go to that room we were in yesterday," Xia Liu said sincerely.
Huang Xue didn't think much of it and led the way into the cubicle.
"Take off your clothes."
Once inside the cubicle, Huang Xue was immediately infuriated by Xia Liu's words. She took off her clothes; what kind of medical treatment was this? Did medical treatment require taking off clothes?
"Are you teasing me?"
"Manager Huang, please don't misunderstand. To properly treat this illness, acupuncture is necessary. I can't find the correct points through clothes. If I needle the wrong spot, the consequences would be very serious!" Xia Liu explained, even feigning a scared expression.
"You!" Huang Xue didn't know how to refute Xia Liu. Suddenly, she thought of something and said, "Didn't you say you were delayed this morning because you went to gather herbs in the mountains? Where are the herbs?"
"Here, they're all in my pocket." Xia Liu took out a transparent bag from his pocket. Inside, there were several green plants and some black root-like items.
Huang Xue's parents had taken her to see Chinese doctors in the past. She had often seen these types of herbs and had even taken many of them, so she didn't doubt that Xia Liu knew a bit about them.
Gradually, Huang Xue unbuttoned her black shirt. The black lace was instantly illuminated by the blazing sun, dazzling and even more enchantingly captivating.
Xia Liu was already staring blankly. He only felt heat rushing up to his nose as if he was about to bleed.
He hurriedly cultivated the Five Elements Mantra, transferring the Spiritual Energy to various meridians to minimize the dry heat.
Gradually, the pure white jade completely revealed itself. That exquisitely flawless waistline would capture anyone's gaze at the first glance, and her misty neck only added countless charms.
Gurgle...
Xia Liu swallowed mouthfuls of saliva as he sped up the circulation of the Five Elements Mantra inside him. He feared he couldn't bear the scenes unfolding before him.
"Xia Liu, before we start, I need to tell you something." Huang Xue said, her voice trembling as she looked down.
"Go ahead."
"Today, if you can't cure it, it's either your death or mine!" Huang Xue suddenly lifted her head to gaze intently at Xia Liu, her eyes filled with a fierce tenacity. If not for the blushing on her face, Xia Liu might have thought she was a hitwoman from an assassin organization...
"Don't worry, if I can't cure it, I'll just jump out of the window right here," Xia Liu responded seriously. He would definitely jump if he couldn't cure her—after all, it was only the twentieth floor, and he wouldn't die from that height.
After receiving Xia Liu's promise, Huang Xue undid her last piece of protection. In an instant, the air within the cubicle seemed to come to a halt, even time itself appeared to be frozen in that moment.
The sight before him made Xia Liu unable to hold back any longer, and two streams of bright red blood sprayed from his nose.
Huang Xue couldn't see Xia Liu's condition; she had already closed her eyes, and in her current state, how could she possibly face Xia Liu.
However, when she heard Xia Liu say that it wasn't necessary to untie it, she was instantly dumbfounded.
Still, she quickly buttoned up and then slapped her hand over Xia Liu's head who was bent down dealing with his nosebleed, "Why didn't you say so earlier!"
"Sorry, I didn't know you'd move so quickly," Xia Liu said as he lifted his head, looking utterly embarrassed.
Seeing blood all over Xia Liu's mouth, Huang Xue said anxiously, "You aren't brain-damaged from that slap, are you? You're bleeding."
...
"It's nothing, it's nothing. It's just too hot and my gums are bleeding," Xia Liu quickly cleaned off the blood.
After that, he took out silver needles and had Huang Xue sit on the round bed.
Fire Attribute Spirit Energy surged, disinfecting the ten silver needles instantly: "It might hurt a bit next. If you can't bear it, just scream. If you can't handle it, tell me. We can always do more sessions for healing."
"No need, I can handle it," Huang Xue said coldly, remembering the ordeal of today that would be unforgettable in a lifetime. This fellow actually thought of treating in stages; that definitely wasn't going to work!
Xia Liu remained silent; since the fairy could endure it, he began.
First, a silver needle carrying Wooden Spirit Energy was placed on the head to protect the brain and to let the nurturing effect of the Wooden Spirit Energy take effect.
The second and third, and soon all the remaining silver needles, each carrying different Attributed Spirit Energy, were inserted into various acupuncture points.
"Phew…" After performing the acupuncture, Xia Liu took a long, relieving breath. The Spiritual Energy consumption this time was a bit excessive, but still manageable. He was constantly excited looking at Huang Xue.
"Hey you, is this supposed to work? Why aren't there any effects?" Seeing Xia Liu huffing as if he had plowed several fields, Huang Xue rolled her eyes at him.
"You'll know in a moment. By the way, do you have a bathtub here? If not…"
"There's a bathtub. Don't tell me you're going to take a bath," Huang Xue pointed at the bathroom door before Xia Liu could finish.
"Good, that's fine. I'll go in and prepare a tub of medicinal water. If you can't handle it, call me."
"Psh, can't handle it? If it doesn't work I will definitely throw you downstairs, definitely…" Before Huang Xue could finish her complaint, she felt an intense heat roasting inside her body while simultaneously a cold pain.
The two extreme sensations seemed to merge together, turning into an unbearable pain.
"Ah!" Only enduring it for a minute, Huang Xue screamed in agony. She finally understood what Xia Liu meant—she might really not be able to endure it because it was too painful, as if every bone in her body was being twisted.
"How are you holding up, can you continue?" Hearing the commotion, Xia Liu quickly came out from the bathroom, his heart aching at the sight of Huang Xue's contorted face.
"I can handle it, go about your business," Huang Xue gritted her teeth. Although she didn't know if it could heal her, this type of treatment had never been encountered before. Perhaps it was the deep desire in her heart that had kept her going until now.
"If you can't endure it, just call me, we can always treat it a few more times…" Xia Liu said helplessly closing his mouth because Huang Xue's gaze conveyed not just pain, but an indescribable chill and anger.
Entering the bathroom again, the bathtub was already filled with water. Xia Liu took out the bag from his pocket and threw the herbs into it, adding a bag of red powder as well.
As the powder mixed with the water, the clear water turned instantly into a deep red, as if a trough had been filled with fresh blood, unnervingly chilling to the viewer.
