445 Chapter 445. Holding Hands
Mo Qian was taking advantage of the fact that his current situation was special and that it would not be suitable for her to reject him. That was why he was so bold and direct. He grabbed her hand and did not let go when he came up. This showed that he had nothing to fear.
As Zhuang Xian thought about this, she raised her brows and looked into Mo Qian’s eyes.
The atmosphere in the room slowly turned ambiguous.
Zhuang Xian thought for a moment, then said gently, “If you keep holding on to me like this, how am I supposed to continue with the acupuncture? Don’t tell me you want to be a Porcupine?”
!!
As Zhuang Xian spoke, she glanced at Mo Qian’s calf, which was already full of silver needles, and the corners of her mouth lifted slightly teasingly.
Upon hearing this, Mo Qian only smiled and looked at Zhuang Xian without saying a word. It was as if he listened to Zhuang Xian. Zhuang Xian told him to shut up and conserve his energy, so he did not say anything.
“I just told you to talk less, not that I don’t want you to talk. You’re quite good at pretending to be good at this time!” Zhuang Xian seemed to be able to read Mo Qian’s mind.
Seeing that he couldn’t avoid it anymore, Mo Qian chuckled and looked at Zhuang Xian, pretending to be pitiful as he replied, “But I’m in pain! I don’t have any more medicine now, so I can only hold your hand first to stop the pain! The saintess is so powerful; she could probably perform acupuncture with one hand! I’m feeling much better now. You can continue!”
As Mo Qian spoke, he did not loosen his grip on Zhuang Xian’s hand. Instead, he tightened his grip.
Zhuang Xian looked at him helplessly. After taking a deep breath, she did not ask Mo Qian to let go.
She retracted her gaze from Mo Qian, and when her eyes returned to Mo Qian’s lower limbs, which were already full of silver needles, she couldn’t help but feel a little heartache and amusement in her heart.
Using her right hand, she picked up a silver needle that was even slimmer than the previous one. Her eyes were focused on the acupuncture point on Mo Qian’s leg. The tip of the needle was aimed at the acupuncture point. Her right thumb, index finger, and middle finger gently and skillfully twisted the silver needle.
As the silver needle pierced through the skin of Mo Qian’s calf and slowly sank into his flesh, Zhuang Xian began to feel the sensation of the needle carefully. She only stopped when the silver needle touched the blocked acupuncture point in Mo Qian’s leg.
Zhuang Xian looked at Mo Qian and saw that his face was pale, and his forehead was covered in sweat. She exhaled and said, “You just said that you don’t have the fortune to see the Saint Valley’s rattlesnake bees. That’s not quite right!”
Upon hearing this, Mo Qian looked up at Zhuang Xian curiously. Even though he did not have the extra energy to talk to Zhuang Xian, the way he looked at her was still gentle and soft. It was as if he would always want to hear whatever Zhuang Xian said.
Zhuang Xian knew that after she inserted the needle, Mo Qian no longer had the strength to speak, so she immediately explained, “After today’s acupuncture, you can rest for a day and start your recovery process according to the rehabilitation course I’ve prepared for you. You can try to stand up slowly first, and don’t be afraid of the pain. The various prescriptions and medicinal cuisines I’ve been giving you recently are all to build the foundation for this day!
These internal and external medicines restore and strengthen your meridians, blood, and flesh. Supplemented by silver needles, they are to unblock the Qi and blood in your acupuncture points. Every time I perform acupuncture on you, you should be able to feel a warm burning sensation on your skin, right?”
Zhuang Xian’s tone was gentle and soothing, but the movement of her right hand never stopped. She inserted all the needles in one go, then slowly turned to look at Mo Qian, a faint smile in her eyes.
Mo Qian had been staring at Zhuang Xian the whole time. He smiled at her and nodded slightly to show that she was right.
As she felt Mo Qian’s grip on her hand tighten, Zhuang Xian sighed to herself and lowered her head slightly, “It’s good to have this feeling. It means that the meridians and blood Qi in your leg are slowly recovering. Although the process will be long and painful, you must know it’s worth it! I’ll make some adjustments to the time for the next acupuncture session. It shouldn’t be as frequent as the previous two sessions. Some things can’t be done quickly.”
