Chapter 913: Chapter 925: Different Styles (Part 1)
There was only one class in the afternoon, and after it was over, there was nothing else scheduled.
Instead of wasting the afternoon like a lazy person, he made good use of the time.
He called Xi Xiaoyi, asking her to come home because he needed to talk to her urgently.
Xi Xiaoyiâs job required her to be out and about regularly.
So when she got the call from Lin Xi, she drove straight home.
Her feelings for Lin Xi were completely equivalent to seeing him as her man. Once she accepted him, it was easy for him to ask her to do anything.
Among Lin Xiâs women, she was the one who could really let go.
When Lin Xi arrived at her place, she was the only one there, and the nanny aunt had gone out to buy groceries, for at least an hour or more.
"Thank you!" Xi Xiaoyi said as soon as she saw Lin Xi, not asking about the urgent matter, "Last time you could represent Xixiâs father, it was something incredibly joyous for her."
"The kids in kindergarten had repeatedly asked Xixi why they never saw her dad pick her up, and why itâs always her mom at the parent meetings."
"Every time she said, âDad is too busy with work, out on business trips!â"
"This excuse wonât work for long, eventually it will be exposed, or perhaps it already has been exposed, and Xixi simply hasnât told me!"
"So, she called you that day, and you went, and you took first place!"
"These past few days, although Xixi hasnât shown immense joy, I can feel in my heart that these are the happiest days of her life!"
As she spoke, Xi Xiaoyi was noticeably jealous of Lin Xi.
She hadnât seen Xixi this happy in a long, long time, and even if there were blissful moments before, they felt different.
Could this be the difference between men and women?
Without waiting for Lin Xi to respond, she continued to ask, "You said on the phone you had an urgent matter, what is it?"
"Is it really so urgent?"
Though she could leave work at any time, she was someone who really loved her job and abided by the rules, so normally she wouldnât leave early.
"Actually, itâs not particularly urgent!" Lin Xi replied.
He wasnât in a hurry to perform the âHundred Days Foundation Establishment,â as Chuzhou City seemed to be extremely safe for the time being.
"Itâs me....."
Before he could explain, Xi Xiaoyi came forward and wrapped her arms around his neck.
Lin Xi: "..."
Well, he had nothing to hesitate over.
To Lin Xi, Xi Xiaoyi felt different from the others.
The other women all had a sort of youthful purity.
The purpose of todayâs visit was unchanged.
Honestly, if Xi Xiaoyi couldnât move an inch, how would he perform the Nine Divine Needles of Heaven-Reversing later?
If the nanny returned, itâd be a bit awkward for the two of them, worse if Xixi returned and Xi Xiaoyi still couldnât get out of bedâit would be quite problematic.
Considering these aspects, they chose to pause their quest for lifeâs meaning.
Next, Lin Xi retrieved a wooden box containing silver needles from the Jade Pendant Space, beginning the âHundred Days Foundation Establishmentâ of the Nine Divine Needles for Xi Xiaoyi.
He always felt Xi Xiaoyi needed the strength boost even more than his other women.
Given she frequently dealt with various clients, while he had people secretly protecting her, the chance of an incident couldnât be wholly avoided.
If her own strength improved, she would be able to tackle any situation.
After Zhu Ying and Lin Yanxia underwent the procedure, their strength was elevated to that of junior special forces soldiers, and Xi Xiaoyi was at least a junior special forces soldier, possibly even having better results.
Her health was excellent, and her physique was far superior to Zhu Ying and Lin Yanxia.
This was likely because she was always on-the-go.
She didnât think too much about Lin Xi performing any acupuncture on her; she knew he wouldnât harm her, so she lay directly on the bed allowing him to proceed.
The process this time went exceptionally smoothly, much easier than before.
Both mentally and in terms of True Qi, she used about half the usual amount.
No doubt, the breakthrough in mindset helped a lot.
This was truly joyous!
Because next time he performs the âHundred Days Foundation Establishmentâ again, thereâs no need to worry about sudden threats.
Currently, he expended less than a quarter of his power.
Under these conditions, someone at the Early Innate Stage wouldnât pose any threat to him.
About halfway through, he retrieved the long, slender silver needles from Xi Xiaoyiâs back.
At that moment, her skin was covered in a layer of dark, oily grime, emitting a foul stench.
Women love cleanliness!
She let out a scream, immediately rushing off to bathe.
She washed for a full ten minutes before emerging wearing a robe, her face flushed.
It was unclear whether the hot water did this, or the earlier grime on her body, leaving her feeling awkward.
Either way, she looked incredibly alluring at this moment.
"When is the nanny coming back?" Lin Xi asked, his gaze heatedly locked onto her.
Xi Xiaoyi seemed equally restless; she didnât understand why, but after Lin Xiâs acupuncture, she was filled with energy, and any fatigue had vanished.
"She should be back soon!" she replied.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi sighed, knowing today there was no opportunity.
Once they started, the noise of battle couldnât be contained by a single wall, or even two or three walls.
However, a moment later, he heard Xi Xiaoyi making a call, "Auntie, when youâre buying groceries, could you pick up Xixi along the way?"
So, Xixi would be home around six.
This meant they had an hour and a half.
After all, Xi Xiaoyiâs physical fitness had greatly improved.
Lin Xi just felt her strength was akin to a junior special forces soldier, but considerably better than Zhu Ying and Lin Yanxia.
Meanwhile, Xi Xiaoyiâs bed was suffering.
Fortunately, everything in her house had guaranteed quality, and leaned towards high-tech.
