Chapter 1353: Chapter 1347: Being Tricked_1 Chapter 1353: Chapter 1347: Being Tricked_1 âAll right, letâs get started, Xuexue. Lend me your silver needles, I forgot to bring mine.â Nangong Beiying didnât really forget to bring hers, she just figured that since Qin Xue ambushed her with the request, she might as well use Qin Xueâs needles.
âFine, use mine, here you go.â Qin Xue knew Nangong Beiying was doing it on purpose, as a petty revenge for her unannounced plan, and she was fine with it.
Qin Xue handed Nangong Beiying the silver needles and then lit the alcohol lamp. The heat would be soothing for dealing with Ye Xiaoâs rheumatic leg, making the treatment more effective.
âNangong Beiying, what are you putting on there, whatâs it for?â Ye Xuan asked curiously as he saw Nangong Beiying take out a packet of something and apply it onto the heated needle.
âDonât interrupt me.â Nangong Beiying didnât have time to explain medical procedures to someone who knows nothing about it.
âEveryone, be quiet. Wait till Yingying finishes the moxibustion and then weâll answer your questions. Donât worry, Yingyingâs skills are superior to mine. She wonât mess it up,â Qin Xue assured them. She actually admired Nangong Beiyingâs acumen, even though theyâd been learning medicine together from their grandfather, Nangong Beiying always seemed to learn faster and better.
Now that Qin Xue had studied medical books in her space, she was theoretically better than Nangong Beiying. But she wanted Nangong Beiying to accompany her to the research institute, so she wouldnât admit to being better than Nangong Beiying.
Upon hearing his wifeâs words, Chu Molin merely smirked. How could he not know her game? After all, heâd spent some time in her space and understood how phenomenal the spiritual energy and knowledge in the books were. He wouldnât believe that she has no ulterior motives.
Nangong Beiying coated the silver needles one by one with her medicinal powder, heated them until they glowed red, and then stuck them into the acupoints on Ye Xiaoâs leg. At first, he didnât feel too much, but gradually, he felt a biting sensation that turned into intense pain.
âHold still, if you move and I make a mistake, donât blame me,â Nangong Beiying warned. She knew the pain would continue to intensify, but it was necessary for the treatment to be effective.
âI can handle it, continue,â Ye Xiao gritted his teeth, sweat dripping down his face and soaking his clothes.
Among the onlookers, apart from Qin Xue and her four bodyguards, only Xue Ling seemed calm. Everyone else looked worried, even Chu Molin, although his concern was well-masked.
âIâll pull the needles out in three minutes.â Nangong Beiying breathed a sigh of relief and wiped her sweat with a handkerchief. Needling was exhausting as it required total focus, any mistake could sabotage the entire process.
âYingying, youâre improving so fast, youâre amazing,â Qin Xue was impressed by the speed and strength Nangong Beiying had shown while needling. Her hands were steady and forceful, it seemed that her practice with her master had paid off.
âPractice makes perfect, isnât it obvious?â Nangong Beiying shot her a disdainful glance.
âWhich is why our Yingying is the best.â Qin Xue wasnât bothered by Nangong Beiyingâs cold facade, she was not backing down.
âIâm my own person, youâre already spoken for.â Nangong Beiying wouldnât let her off the hook that easily. Qin Xue tended to set her up like this, if she forgave her too easily, sheâd only end up being duped again in the future.
