Qiu Yan’s facial expression suddenly underwent great changes. She abruptly raised her head, glaring at Xu Yun as though she wasn’t suffering from internal injuries at the moment. For weaklings to dare talk to her like that, she would swiftly kill them!

How could Xu Yun not understand Qiu Yan’s grave and stern look? He shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly, “I don’t have the ability to do acupuncture through clothing. Each part of the Qi Jing 8 Meridians is very important. If you don’t want to take it off then fine, but don’t blame me if I p.r.i.c.k the wrong spot.”

“You!” Although Qiu Yan didn’t understand medical science, she thoroughly understood that the Qi Jing 8 Meridians were very important for those that practiced martial arts. Also she was a 1st-tier elite, so her entire body’s blood vessels and muscles were already cleared with increased circulation. Therefore, it was clear that this point was of incredibly formidable importance..

Especially the two Ren and Du Meridians, if they were p.r.i.c.ked incorrectly, it was very easy to lose martial arts abilities. Failing again could be deadly, or perhaps cause a vegetative state as a handicapped person.

Xu Yun took back his silver needles. “Forget it, since you aren’t willing, I won’t force you. Also, you can look at your own chest for the Jade Hall, Sandalwood Center, as well as the Central Court*. If my guess is right, those several acupuncture points have already become dark purple in color, and your Du Mai(Governing Vessel) above your Great Hammer, Spirit Platform, and Life Gate* acupuncture points, are perhaps even worse.

*TN All acupuncture points in Chinese, translated to English for your reading pleasure! :3 The translations might not be right for some, we welcome correction!.

Qiu Yan clenched her teeth tightly. How could she endure allowing herself, clear as ice and clean as jade, to expose her body to a man to look at! Only unless after he gave the needle treatment, she would immediately kill him. If it was like before, Qiu Yan could definitely be able to do this kind of thing, but now she really couldn’t win against Xu Yun.

“Life and death is not up to the heavens, but up to yourself.” Xu Yun was not ambiguous. He picked up his silver needles and directly gave all 7 of the 9 Treasures Revival pills as a present to Qiu Yan. “Rest a.s.sured, I can take care of GuoGuo well.”

Xu Yun’s attempt to persuade her had ended, and he left Qiu Yan’s room after.  Just at this time, he also ran right into Ruan QingShuang and GuoGuo going upstairs.

“Daddy, what are you doing going into Qiu Yan-jiejie’s room?” GuoGuo vigilantly said. “You already have mom, you shouldn’t be so indecisive. Also according to family seniority, she is considered to be your daughter. You should certainly take note of ethical relations.h.i.+ps.”

Ethical your face!

Xu Yun almost spit out blood. In the lands under heaven, is there a daughter that is almost her father’s age?!

“I gave your sister a gift of some medicine. Your sister seems like she’s feeling ill.” Xu Yun remained silent.

Ruan QingShuang’s expression was just a moment ago awkward, and now became worried and she stealthily drew towards Xu Yun’s direction. “Xu Yun, why didn’t you tell me about this girl feeling ill? It’s always more appropriate for me, the boss, to personally act than for you to.”

“Eh…….” Xu Yun scratched his head. You acting in an official capacity is actually suitable, but you can’t carry out acupuncture. Was it that she was mistaken, thinking that she was becoming Qiu Yan’s auntie?

But GuoGuo next words almost toppled Xu Yun and Ruan QingShuang on one side!

“Ai, women every month will always have several days of time or so of feeling unwell.” GuoGuo’s face was like she deeply felt the same, sighing.

What the h.e.l.l! You’re just a few years old and know everything!

Xu Yun really wondered just how much maturity did GuoGuo’s mental age have!

“Let’s go GuoGuo! Mom is going to take you to go shower!” Ruan QingShuang actually pulled GuoGuo helplessly, and could only drag her away. “Right now in the restaurant, there are many people living here, so GuoGuo mustn’t procrastinate showering again.”

After Ruan QingShuang carried GuoGuo away, Xu Yun returned to his own room.

Qiu Yan didn’t hear the noise outside. She let out a long breath, and summoned the courage to stand in front of the mirror, she slowly took off her clothing. The mirror mapped out Qiu Yan’s graceful body’s beauty and skin of white jade; it would simply make it impossible for people to believe she was a killer.

By using the mirror Qiu Yan could clearly see her own chest’s Jade Hall, Sandalwood Center, Central Court, and the acupuncture points of the Giant Depression under the rib and G.o.d’s Depression in the belly b.u.t.ton were all purple. Her entire body irresistibly shuddered. Xu Yun said correctly – her internal injuries were already approaching the condition when they couldn’t be treated. If she dragged it out again, she feared that she could only wait to die.

But no matter what Xu Yun said, he was still a man! No matter what, Qiu Yan was unable to persuade herself to allow a man to look over her entire body! Even if he was a doctor who cared for his patients like a parent to a child, with the motive of a doctor doing good, he would still have seen it!

But also, the main target of the silver needles was the Qi Jing 8 Meridians – then to ill.u.s.trate the Du Mai: Ren and Du Meridians, Penetrating Meridian, Girdle Meridian, Yang-linking Vessel, Yin-linking Vessel, Yin-heel Vessel, Yang-heel Vessel…that was the entire body up and down, without leaving any part out!

But if she didn’t get the treatment, then in one month’s time she would have no way to protect GuoGuo.

GuoGuo……this was Qiu Yan’s lethal weakness!

Qiu Yan finally decided that if she was willing to die to protect GuoGuo, then why was she afraid of letting a man look at her body! For GuoGuo, who the Millennium Feng entrusted to her, this speck of humiliation was nothing!

Thinking of that, Qiu Yan put on her clothes and pushed open the door, directly opening Xu Yun’s door the room over.

Xu Yun seemed like he was long ago expecting her to come to him. “Thought it over?”

“Mmm.” Qiu Yan tried to regulate her breathing as much as possible.

“In reality, it isn’t much. The acupuncture treatment mainly needs to be applied to several important acupuncture points of the two Ren and Du Meridians. I also think…..eh…..nevermind.” Xu Yun originally was thinking of saying that there are too many places he couldn’t see, but considering Qiu Yan’s temperament wasn’t very suitable for joking, he chose to swallow the words instead.

This point somewhat exceeded Qiu Yan’s expectations. “Only the two Ren and Du  Meridians need acupuncture?”

“Yup.” Xu Yun nodded his head.

“Then I will treat the acupuncture points on my chest myself! You are only in charge of the lower back meridians! Qiu Yan seemed to have found to way to accept treatment, only allowing Xu Yun to look at her lower back. Although it was awkward, yet she could accept it. At the very least, she wouldn’t have to bear her b.r.e.a.s.t.s facing a man!

Xu Yun stared blankly. He was concerned that there wouldn’t be an opportunity to witness the Violent Lady Fox’s proud twin peaks. “You can do acupuncture?”

“I know a little bit.” Qiu Yan said. She would rather brave three dangers than to let Xu Yun see it all.

Xu Yun smiled a little. “Alright, I also think that you wouldn’t use your own life to mess around. Whatever I say, is whatever you do!”

“Very well!” Qiu Yan clenched her teeth, she also thoroughly endured enough torment from her internal injuries.

“Undress.” Xu Yun walked up to Qiu Yan’s back. “You only need to hold 7 silver needles, according to my directions, apply them in the acupuncture points. Remember 10,000,000 times over, that you must never get the sequence or the positions wrong.”

Qiu Yan nodded her head, her face full of moral integrity. She was also no longer shy or embarra.s.sed. With one grasp she removed her s.h.i.+rt, then without the slightest hesitation she untied her undergarments.

The entire room was instantly permeated with a special aura. Xu Yun even went so far as to not breathe. He had never seen a naked figure before. Qiu Yan’s graceful back gave him an endless source of fantasies. Her creamy white jade skin looked soft like water, as though with a pinch, you could break the surface and with a splash… softness would flow out. Xu Yun couldn’t resist drooling right now.

Qiu Yan’s voice echoed coldly, “Seen enough yet?”

“Victoria’s Secret? This underwear is quite expensive isn’t it?” Xu Yun hurriedly looked at the underwear while stroking his chin to change the subject.

“Xu Yun, if you dare to have any distracting thoughts again, I swear I will cut your head off!” Once Qiu Yan heard that at this crucial moment Xu Yun cared about what brand of undergarment she wore, of course she would be enraged enough to lash out and punish him!

Xu Yun sucked in a breath, “Sure, I will only talk about acupuncture – I will not talk about underwear.”

“Daddy, is Qiu Yan-jiejie in your room? Eh……”. Following GuoGuo’s question, Xu Yun’s room started to creak as the door was twisted open by GuoGuo, who directly entered without thinking. The just-washed hair on her head was still damp.

Ahh–!

The whole room was deathly quiet! Qiu Yan, who was still tending to her health, grabbed her clothes to cover her body. Afterwards, she picked up GuoGuo and walked her to her own room.

During the whole course of events, no one said anything. Xu Yun had never really encountered such an awkward affair. Who knew if this child GuoGuo would exaggerate in front of Ruan QingShuang and irresponsibly say things?

Ai, GuoGuo oh GuoGuo, G.o.dfather’s lifetime heroic reputation all depends on whether you can keep that mouth closed.

Qiu Yan could only blame herself for not being careful enough. How could she forget to lock the door when she went into Xu Yun’s room just now? Later acupuncture treatments with this kind of situation, apparently must take place very late at night, when everyone had fallen asleep. Or else at any time, other people in the household could encounter awkward circ.u.mstances.

“Qiu Yan-jiejie, why did daddy take off your clothes? Don’t tell me that you two wanted to ……” GuoGuo’s facial expression was quite incredulous. In her own world. Qiu Yan was just like an iceberg’s existence. Before when she met with men, she would look straight forward and she would say that she hadn’t seen them! Forget about undressing in front of a man!

Although Qiu Yan’s exterior was Violent Lady Fox, yet towards GuoGuo, she was a gentle and soft older sister. “GuoGuo you can’t say irresponsible things. Just now jiejie was simply allowing him to help me heal. There wasn’t any other purpose.”

“It’s just like Zhang CuiShan and Yin SuSu in Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre taking off her clothes to cure her wounds, Yang Xiao with Ji XiaoFu taking off her clothes to heal wounds, Zhang WuJi had Zhao Min take off her clothes to mend her injuries…”.

While saying it, GuoGuo helplessly shook her head, “Ai, are heroes just full of hot air? Was daddy just like them? If the girl’s clothes weren’t taken off then they wouldn’t heal her wounds?”

“Jiejie’s injury needs acupuncture, so you have to remove your clothes……”. Qiu Yan didn’t know whether at present, soap operas were helping her or harming her. “GuoGuo, in short, about Xu Yun giving jiejie healing treatment, you can’t tell others about this matter, all right?”

Closely following, Qiu Yan also nervously said, “You especially can’t tell your Ruan mama!”

GuoGuo nodded, readily promising, “Of course, if mom knew, she would surely be jealous.”

Qiu Yan finally relaxed a breath and said, “Then since we have come to an agreement, we must keep the secret!”

“Mmmm……” GuoGuo’s small eye b.a.l.l.s blinked, “But next time you let daddy give you a healing treatment, at that time, you must certainly call GuoGuo. GuoGuo is very worried that jiejie will get the worst out of it.”

*Sweat*, with this kind of matter, who would have the nerve to call other people?! Even though GuoGuo was a small child, Qiu Yan was in an uncomfortable position.

Just then, Ruan QingShuang also finished showering, she walked out from the bathroom and called, “GuoGuo, where did you go?”

“Qiu Yan-jiejie, I’m going to go. I won’t talk about yesterday’s matters at all.” GuoGuo stuck out her tongue, and immediately opened the door to run out. “Mom, I went to go play with Qiu Yan-jiejie for a little bit……”

Inside Xu Yun’s room, he was rapidly breathing, sticking his ears out to hear. He was really dreading that GuoGuo would say some horribly shocking things, but he rejoiced – GuoGuo unexpectedly didn’t mention a word of what just happened.

Although Xu Yun had the intention of a doctor who cared for his patients like a parent to a child, but this kind of affair seemed very unclear, and could certainly and easily lead to misunderstandings. His own heroic reputation mustn’t be ruined by this kind of small matter.

Xu Yun also didn’t ask Qiu Yan if she wanted to go shower or not. Soon after, he went early to hastily take a cold shower. First he completed his daily breathing exercises, an important matter that needed to be settled. He couldn’t say for sure, but some day, he could purge himself of his inner evil.
