Chapter 189: Do You Want Me to Bath You? (3)

When she looked inside, she saw Rong Yu soaking in the bathtub, but he did not seem asleep. She could only see the back of Rong Yu’s head from afar.

“Rong Yu, did you hear that?”

Rong Yu still did not make a sound.

Gu Qingchen frowned slightly and felt that something was not right. “Rong Yu, are you not feeling well?”

It was rare to see Rong Yu like this. Gu Qingchen quickly stopped asking and went into the bathroom. She walked quickly to Rong Yu’s side.

She only saw the side of Rong Yu’s face. He was expressionless, but it was not difficult to notice that he seemed to be in great pain. His brows were furrowed, and his face was frighteningly pale. His hands tightly held the bathtub’s edge, and his knuckles were clearly defined. Even his fingers had changed color because he had used too much force.

“Rong Yu, is your illness acting up? Are you feeling unwell?” At this moment, Gu Qingchen did not care about anything else because Rong Yu did not look good.

Rong Yu had not opened his mouth to speak. His rouge-like red lips were tightly pursed. Once he opened his mouth, he would probably only moan in pain.

Seeing Rong Yu like this, Gu Qingchen’s heart was filled with mixed feelings. Her heart seemed to have been pulled by something, which hurt a little.

Rong Yu was such a perfect and admirable existence, but behind his back, he silently endured this inhuman torture. He was strong and stubborn as he gritted his teeth and forcefully took the pain on his body, unwilling to make a sound to show his weakness.

Gu Qingchen did not know why, but when she saw Rong Yu now, it was as if she saw her past self. She endured it alone and was as tenacious as she was unyielding. It made people feel pity for her.

Gu Qingchen’s eyes darkened, and she quickly put her hand on Rong Yu’s wrist. Her face was solemn, and her fingers kept beating on Rong Yu’s wrist.

Gu Qingchen’s face also became more and more solemn. Judging from the pulse, Rong Yu’s pulse was very chaotic at the moment, and his Qi and blood were not flowing smoothly. No wonder he had to soak in the water.

The water temperature was already cold, but Rong Yu was soaking in it as if he did not feel the temperature of the water. Gu Qingchen stood there in a daze before she took off the silver needle on her wrist.

She finally knew why Rong Yu was soaking in the bathtub. This agarwood bathtub had a calming effect. The slightly cold water temperature, coupled with the effect of the agarwood would more or less alleviate the discomfort in Rong Yu’s body.

Although the effect would not be very effective, it was much safer and healthier than taking medicine to suppress it.

No wonder Rong Yu was not unwilling to use the medicine Gu Qingchen’s master had prescribed for him. It turned out that he had found a way himself.

No wonder he was a mythical figure in Hongfeng’s Department of Medicine. His medical skills were not wasted.

However, Gu Qingchen did not understand and did not think of this method in time. However, Rong Yu had used this method for a long time. Rong Yu’s medical skills might not be inferior to hers. In fact, perhaps Rong Yu’s medical skills were even better than hers.

If that was the case, why did Rong Yu insist on making her his personal physician?

Although she had doubts in her heart, her hands did not slow down. Initially, she did not think of using this method to suppress the pain in Rong Yu’s body. Then, she was inspired by Rong Yu’s method, and a light flashed through her mind. She thought of a supplementary method.

Acupuncture with silver needles was a very ancient medical skill. Nowadays, many people had modified acupuncture with silver needles. In terms of effectiveness, the acupuncture method was relatively slow, but acupuncture with silver needles could quickly achieve results.

Gu Qingchen thought of this out of the blue. Acupuncture with silver needles required time and effort, and complete concentration. Many traditional Chinese medicine practitioners were unwilling to use it because it needed a lot of mental energy.

Many people had to rest for a few days after trying it before they could fully recover.

Therefore, very few doctors were willing to use acupuncture with silver needles. Many people even felt acupuncture with silver needles was challenging, so they simply did not learn this skill.

Gu Qingchen was different. Since she wanted to learn medical skills, she had to learn all of his skills from her master, Doctor Hua, so she would not be disadvantaged.

At that time, she only learned acupuncture with silver needles with the intention of not being at a disadvantage. She did not expect that it could be put to use today.

Without further hesitation, Gu Qingchen said to Rong Yu seriously, “Rong Yu, listen to me. I need to focus all my attention on acupuncture points for you. This way, the effect will be twice as good as your chronic treatment method. However, I can not be disturbed during the process of acupuncture, so you have to cooperate with me.”

Although Rong Yu did not say anything, he could clearly hear Gu Qingchen’s words. Rong Yu stared at Gu Qingchen for a few seconds, then nodded and agreed with Gu Qingchen.

However, there was another critical but awkward question.

“Silver needle acupuncture requires nine acupuncture points. Some of the acupuncture points are under your lower back and legs. You are in the bathtub, so it is not convenient for me to do the acupuncture outside. However, if you leave the bathtub, it will lose its effect again. So…” Gu Qingchen hesitated, but she still said, “I also need to go into the bathtub to do the acupuncture.”

As a doctor, she could not care much. Perhaps she could just stand by and watch if it was someone else. She would never make herself feel wronged to share a bath with someone to save them.

But it was Rong Yu.

Gu Qingchen did not know what had happened to her. When she made this decision, she was relieved and had no thoughts of being unwilling.

Rong Yu looked deeply at Gu Qingchen for a long time. After confirming Gu Qingchen’s determination, he nodded and agreed to Gu Qingchen’s method.

Gu Qingchen took a deep breath and held the silver needle. Rong Yu moved back a little. As the bathtub was huge, it was more than enough to fit two people.

Gu Qingchen looked at Rong Yu and gritted her teeth to get rid of the jumbled thoughts in her mind. She raised her legs and strode into Rong Yu’s bathtub.

Once she entered the water, she felt the cold temperature of the water. However, she could not care about that now, and saving people was more important.

However, Gu Qingchen had forgotten one thing. She wore a white shirt today, which was slightly loose.

After the shirt was soaked in water, her innerwear was almost completely visible.

Gu Qingchen ignored this. She only felt that the water was cold. However, she quickly took a deep breath and pulled out a silver needle. She stared into Rong Yu’s deep eyes.

“I’m ready to start. It might hurt a little. Bear with it.”

Rong Yu’s starry eyes blinked slightly. He nodded to show that he understood.

Everything was ready. Gu Qingchen stabilized herself and started to insert the needle. The interval between each needle was quite long because each required a lot of mental and hand strength.

Finding the acupuncture points and using the most appropriate force to insert the needles bit by bit was tricky.

After only two needles, Gu Qingchen’s forehead was already starting to sweat. However, her eyes were firm and had completely blocked the outside world. All her attention was focused on the silver needles in her hands.
