Another weekend was coming to an end – GuoGuo naturally happily went to school. Qiu Yan sent her off to school seemingly distressed. The whole main street was full of the wanted posters, making her feel incomparably huge pressure. She knew cops wanting to capture Crimson Scorpion was truly as difficult as climbing on top of heaven.
Yesterday Qin Wan’er didn’t come back until very late, and today she left early this morning. It seemed like her whole body was dispirited, and her face was unhappy. It seemed that she couldn’t pull Xu Yun and Qiu Yan’s help, and so she was clearly especially frustrated.
“Wait.” Xu Yun suddenly opened his mouth and called out to Qin Wan’er.
Qin Wan’er froze for a second and stopped her steps. Turning she asked, “What’s the matter?”
Xu Yun simply didn’t have the heart to see such a sunny, beautiful girl become so depressed. “Yesterday my intent wasn’t that I wouldn’t help you. I just don’t want to be a.s.sociated with you police officers. However….. on your matters I can’t say that I wouldn’t care about them.”
Originally dispirited the whole time, the gloomy Qin Wan’er’s face turned clear, and her eyes widened, “You’re willing to help me?”
“I’m willing to help you.” Xu Yun nodded. “But you must listen to me.”
Qin Wan’er nodded her head like a little chicken eating grains. “Listen to you, listen to you, listen to you about everything!”
Xu Yun said with satisfaction. “Ok, go to work. If there’s any news promptly report it to me. I rather quite believe in the police’s ability to investigate.”
Finding Crimson Scorpion’s whereabouts as soon as possible was extremely advantageous to Qiu Yan and GuoGuo. Xu Yun had already thought about how yesterday Qiu Yan went to the South City Tiger Trio to help her look for information about Crimson Scorpion. It wasn’t that he didn’t believe in those gangster’s ability, only Xu Yun believed in the Criminal Police’s ability more.
Cooperating with the police to Xu Yun was a winning situation for both, but Xu Yun didn’t like the kind of feeling of acting at their beck and call, so he told Qin Wan’er he would only help her. This way Qin Wan’er wouldn’t ‘sell’ him to the police.
That day Qin Wan’er spoke of it Xu Yun had already thought of this. He definitely wouldn’t be used by the people of the police. If they were to cooperate, then he would only use the police.
“Xu Yun, did you mean what you said?” Qin Wan’er was a bit unsure.
“Of course.” Xu Yun nodded. “The precondition is…..only you alone know my ident.i.ty.”
Qin Wan’er hesitated for a bit. She originally wanted to report this matter to Chief Chen. “But then you can’t get any recognition.”
“Am I the kind of person that cares about recognition?” Xu Yun helplessly smiled. “Also, if you cops obtain Crimson Scorpion’s exact hiding place, I hope you can use all your effort to prevent a mobilization from being arranged. Tell me about the situation, and I’ll help you.”
Qin Wan’er squinted her eyes. “To handle that kind of person will definitely require the use of the Special Armed Police – you don’t need to worry about that.”
Xu Yun’s face color sank. “Special Police? Hehe, if your leaders.h.i.+p thinks the Special Police can settle it, they wouldn’t have you come looking for me for help.”
“You…..why are you saying that?” Qin Wan’er was shocked by Xu Yun’s words. From start till now she hadn’t mentioned Chief Chen’s words with her. How would Xu Yun know?
Xu Yun squinted a smile. It seemed that he didn’t miss his guess – because it would be impossible for a wise person leading the Public Security Bureau to not to see that Qin Wan’er’s great service before necessitated someone’s help.
From talking with the South City Tiger Trio Xu Yun had found out a few things about the Public Security Bureau Chief Chen Wei. Since he took office five years ago he handled quite a few big cases. He suppressed very many fierce bandit generals, so this person definitely wouldn’t be so stupid to believe a little girl cop had the ability to overthrow the Four Wolves Gang – and would even more disbelieve a little girl cop could duel with A-rank criminal Gong You.
At the time Gong You had blade wounds from Qiu Yan on his body. Originally Xu Yun always worried that cops would come to investigate, but absolutely no one made inquiries on the matter. There were only two scenarios possible: one was the forensics autopsy guy was blind, and the second was that someone in power didn’t let people pursue the matter.
Obviously the first scenario was completely improbable – a blind person couldn’t become a coroner. It could only be that someone in a high position closed one eye and kept one eye open and let the matter pa.s.s. And afterwards, when Qin Wan’er took on the Blade Axe Crew case, n.o.body outside asked her how she had done it.
Only relying on the small details of these things, Xu Yun could conclude that Chen Wei was an intelligent, wise, and farsighted person. He understood what should be said and what shouldn’t be – only if it was advantageous for the police, he wouldn’t excessively investigate events.
“Go on, no worries.” Xu Yun’s cracked a smile. “If you believe me, just do as I intended and we’ll cooperate. If you believe in the Special Police, then you don’t need my help.”
Qin Wan’er with a clear mood, glanced at Xu Yun and then turned and left.
After she left Ruan QingShuang came out of the kitchen. “Xu Yun, you want to help Wan’er catch that criminal that’s posted everywhere at the moment?”
Xu Yun shook his head – he didn’t want Ruan QingShuang to worry. “Of course not. I don’t have that kind of energy. I’m not a cop, haha!”
“I don’t mind whatever you guys want to do, but I still want to say that I hope you guys will be safe and sound.” Ruan QingShuang said, “Just a small report can get 500,000 in award money… just how dangerous this person is can be imagined. Xu Yun, you…….forget it, I won’t say.”
Xu Yun cracked a smile, “I’m not the type of person that wants money and not life. Shuang-jie, let down your heavy heart. Even if I see that person, I wouldn’t report it.”
With that Ruan QingShuang relaxed her heart.
Of course Xu Yun wouldn’t report it. Who would he report it to? He definitely would go straight to it – who cares if he’s some 1st-tier elite? Without an exchange how would they know whose fist was harder? Even though there wasn’t certainty of winning, but Xu Yun was at least 50% sure.
Suddenly Ruan QingShuang’s face turned pale, clutching her lower belly, she frowned and said, “I’ll go upstairs for a bit…..”
Xu Yun’s brow jumped – he knew this was a common ailment for many women.
Ruan QingShuang barely stepped up two stairs, and her legs went soft and her whole body almost fell, but a big hand suddenly and timely appeared, holding the nearly fallen Ruan QingShuang.
“Careful there. If you can’t do it don’t force it.” Xu Yun still had that bright sunny smile. His wrists used strength upwards with a flip, directly holding Ruan QingShuang like a princess in his arms, “I’ll take you up.”
Ruan QingShuang’s whole face was blus.h.i.+ng from Xu Yun’s actions, “No need…..I myself can…….”
“Don’t talk tough. Your whole face is pale with cold sweat, and your body has no strength. An old sickness right? It’s already quite serious.” Xu Yun said plainly, “Yesterday you said you went to go buy some herbs, and when you came back I saw you also bought menstrual cramp patches.”
Being exposed on the spot by Xu Yun, Ruan QingShuang’s even more couldn’t face him. Blus.h.i.+ng from her cheeks to her ears, her whole person was so ashamed she didn’t know where to go to hide. Originally Ruan QingShuang was thin-skinned – she hoped that others wouldn’t know about this, and now suddenly a man knows……
“What this is, is an ailment that needs nursing.” Xu Yun held on with Ruan QingShuang that couldn’t say another word. Directly returning to the room upstairs, he then poured her a gla.s.s of water. “Worrying too much and over-exertion very easily can bring out this kind of situation. Routinely care for your body – I’ll give you a ma.s.sage to fix it.”
Ma.s.sage? Ruan QingShuang’s two eyes stared, “You’ll give me one?”
“Shuang-jie, doctors have hearts like parents. Don’t think that I have some kind of deviant intention.” Xu Yun saw her reaction was so big, and followed saying, “First to be clear, if an ordinary person gave me money I still wouldn’t do it.”
“You also know about ma.s.saging?” Of course Ruan QingShuang wouldn’t be too believing, after all Xu Yun was so young. Ordinarily, only old doctors truly understood acupuncture. Age was equivalent to proof that they completed studies in Chinese medicine and it wasn’t something done in a year.
Xu Yun patted his chest, “Shuang-jie, don’t doubt me. I guarantee I’ll relieve you from pain in ten minutes. Believe it or not, it’ll be way better than the patches you bought from the pharmacy.”
Ruan QingShuang, who was still half-believing, half-disbelieving said, “Ma.s.saging requires knowledge of acupuncture, to randomly press them isn’t good….”
Once Xu Yun heard this he was unhappy. Back then among his brothers, he was the only one with innate talent in medicine. His honored master transferred knowledge of medicine and aspects of healing more than others. After all he had the duty of two jobs as a doctor as well, so Xu Yun absolutely wasn’t without study and skills as a bare-faced liar.
Just as Ruan QingShuang was still skeptical, Xu Yun already supported Ruan QingShuang’s right leg. Using his left hand’s thumb to knead the inside of her calf, just at three inches above the bony prominence of the ankle, on the edge of the side of the tibia was an acupuncture point. “This is the Three Yin Intersection, connected to the kidneys. It can lower your heat. If you feel soreness then tell me.”
Seeing Xu Yun being so professional, Ruan QingShuang had truly been mesmerized. In just one minute later she felt some soreness, and rushed to tell Xu Yun. Xu Yun immediately stopped his hands, and changed to Ruan QingShuang’s left leg and ma.s.saged the meridian.
“It really is quite comfortable, Xu Yun, you really have two t.i.tles of skills.” Ruan QingShuang couldn’t help but to praise.
Then Xu Yun lifted Ruan QingShuang’s pair of jade feet. “Between the big toe and the 2nd toe is the Great Surge Meridian that has a distinct use of pain relief of the liver. Also, if you feel soreness tell me.”
“This…… How about I do this one myself?” Ruan QingShuang felt quite embarra.s.sed. Did Xu Yun still want to give her a foot ma.s.sage? All over she trembled, this was still the first time that her foot was touched by someone. Inside her brain unexpectedly and mysteriously recalled XiMen Qing and Pan JinLian’s story.
“This time I’ll give you a demonstration. Next time, you’ll be able to do it yourself.” Xu Yun didn’t stop his hands’ actions.
Waiting until after pressing the Great Charging Meridian, Xu Yun said towards Ruan QingShuang, “Bend your knee.”
Ruan QingShuang immediately, in the light of Xu Yun’s judgment, now she could be considered to believe Xu Yun’s considerable professionalism. Towards her own thinking just a moment ago, she also felt deeply bad about it.
Xu Yun’s two thumbs suddenly overlapped, pressing down on the inside of Ruan QingShuang’s thigh, on a place shortly above the kneecap on the inside. A woman’s thighs. This made Ruan QingShuang’s body tremble all over – a woman’s thighs are regarded as a very private area, this was truly a bit unbearable.
“Just the inner thigh right?” Ruan QingShuang weakly said.
But Xu Yun didn’t stop. “Does the left hip Blood Sea Meridian always hurt at the same time? When you have time, stimulate this area a lot, at night bring a hot water bag and put it on your back, and ma.s.sage the left hip again.”
Ruan QingShuang with great difficulty cleared the blus.h.i.+ng once more – she again flushed red. With her head held low, she said in a small voice, “Em, “
She was really too embarra.s.sed.
“Shuang-jie? Yun-ge!”
Suddenly downstairs Shan HongNing’s voice arrived. Ruan QingShuang was fl.u.s.tered, standing up.
Xu Yun looked at his watch, it was just 10:30 – it still wasn’t time to eat yet. He just signaled to offer Ruan QingShuang to sit down, “I’ll go deal with it, it’ll be okay. First go rest awhile, then drink some hot water.”
Ruan QingShuang nodded her head tenderly and shyly, it was the first time that she experienced a man’s gentle and soft side and she was completely unable to restrain her emotions……
