Chapter 98A - Even the Brothers Were Sold (1/2)
Being able to knock him down in a single move, Yuan Xin still had a bit of belief in Luo Qing Luan’s abilities. He hesitated for a short moment before he said, “That… If I could have a bit of instruction from Young Miss Luo, whether or not it succeeds, your subordinate will still be grateful.” Towards this, how much hope did he have? If he really couldn’t be cured, then it wasn’t anything much. However, if there was a bit of success, wouldn’t he be immensely fortunate?
This was why he could not help but to be quite a bit more courteous to Luo Qing Luan, even throwing in a few ingratiating remarks. When he finished speaking, he stood up straight and walked to Luo Qing Luan’s side. He looked at her meaningfully as he sat down beside her, and Yong An was beyond himself with surprise.
It wasn’t only Yuan Xin. Yong An also wondered whether or not Luo Qing Luan was just blustering. If she was really able to cure Yuan Xin, it was possible that she would be able to solve his problem as well.
“Take off your clothes.” Luo Qing Luan was direct and to the point. Yuan Xin’s eyes opened wide. He had just sat down but he stood up again, “I cannot, how would your subordinate dare to be so disrespectful in front of Young Miss Luo!” She had to be joking. How would he dare?
Luo Qing Luan was the future princess and the woman of his master. If he dared show a single modicum of impropriety, his master aside, even he dared not think of it.
Luo Qing Luan’s expression was apathetic, “You’re now a patient and I am your master. I’m asking you to take off your clothes so that I may treat you. Since I don’t mind it, what are you dilly-dallying for?”
“But…” When she saw that Yuan Xian was still hesitating, Luo Qing Luan’s expression turned icy, “I’m treating you because, one, you are one of Nalan Ye’s men. Also, the residual effects are getting increasingly serious. If this goes on, you’ll only have ten more years to live at most. If you’re not treated, do you want to die an early death?” Yuan Xin’s body shook. He never thought that the issue with his body would become so serious.
After pondering over it, he finally stopped hesitating. He quickly stripped off his outer robe and faced his naked back to Luo Qing Luan.
Her eyes didn’t even move before she quickly took out some acupuncture needles from her person. She did not conceal it from Yuan Xin and Yong An anymore.
She accurately placed the acupuncture needles into the acupuncture points. A short comment later, Yuan Xin’s back was filled with ten needles. He looked similar to a hedgehog.
As she was finishing the acupuncture, Luo Qing Luan took her time. Nearby, Yong An continued to stare at her movements, but was unable to pick out any anomalies.
