1670 Why Didn’t You Say Anything Earlier? (2/2)

”As I said, we are now a team, so I cannot disregard the pain that you are suffering. I mean no harm,” Di Fuyi explained.

Sweat broke out on her forehead, but her eyes were shining brightly, for she knew what she was doing. She took a deep breath to calm herself down. ”Thank you. You can continue the search for yourself. Leave me alone.”

Di Fuyi was capable enough to continue the search on his own. It was unnecessary to drag Gu Xijiu along. She really did not want to work alongside him anyway. Also, she refused to have any physical contact with him.

Without further ado, Di Fuyi pointed and sealed her acupuncture point to calm her down.

Then, he took her hands and sat her down face to face. Their palms were in touch to connect the flow of his spiritual power into her body. His spiritual power slowly entered her circulation and reached out to her abdomen.

The internals of her abdomen was as cold as ice. Her organs were cramping in pain. His spiritual power was a stream of warmth to cure this effect. It entered her abdomen and started to demonstrate its warming effects.

Soon, the cramps around her abdomen started to ease and gradually disappeared. A few moments later, Di Fuyi finally let go of her hand and removed the seal on her acupuncture point. ”How are you feeling now?” He asked.

”I am feeling better. Thank you.”

Gu Xijiu heaved a gentle sigh of relief and rose. As the pain had been going on for too long, her body was still weak. She quickly moved around to exercise her cramped muscles.

Di Fuyi continued to observe her pale face. ”How long have you been in pain? Why didn't you say anything earlier?”

Gu Xijiu shook her head firmly. ”There is no need.”

”There is no need? Should we wait until you had fainted to make it sound more necessary?”

Gu Xijiu looked at him fixedly. She continued with a half-smile, ”Are you concerned with my wellbeing?”

Di Fuyi disregarded her glare and said nonchalantly, ”You are overthinking. As I said, we are now a team. We are doing this for the same goal.”
