The acupuncture technique used in this treatment was extremely complex and demanding, requiring intense concentration. Even the angle and force of each needle insertion were strictly regulated; the slightest deviation would greatly reduce the treatment’s effectiveness.
Even Lu Miao needed to be fully focused and couldn’t afford any negligence.
With each needle insertion, small beads of sweat began to form on Lu Miao’s forehead.
During a brief break as she changed needles, a fair and slender hand extended a gray handkerchief, gently and swiftly wiping away the sweat from her brow.
Throughout the process, that hand would always appear at the perfect moments to gently dab away her sweat.
After the final needle was placed, Lu Miao let out a sigh of relief and turned to see Gu Shiyan. “Thank you.”
She glanced at the handkerchief now dampened in his hand and reached out, saying, “I’ll wash it and return it to you.”
“No need.”
Gu Shiyan tucked the handkerchief back into his pocket. “I’ve arranged a
separate room for you downstairs. New clothes have already been sent to you.
Freshen up and rest a bit.”
This person seemed to always be meticulous and considerate. He had already arranged everything for her without her needing to speak.
Knowing that he had something to say to Gu Zhixing, Lu Miao did not refuse.
She nodded.” Okay.”
Lu Miao got up and went downstairs.
Although Gu Zhixing had never said it out loud, he had never deliberately hidden his relationship with Aluo in front of her.
She guessed that his departure from home back then must have been related to Aluo. Given the nature of the Gu family, they could never have accepted their relationship. Gut s father must have said some hurtful things in the heat of the moment, and Gu Zhixing, being young and stubborn, refused to back down. In his anger, he left with Aluo.
Later, when Gu Zhixing wanted to return, their father had already passed away.
Overwhelmed by guilt and self-reproach, he couldn’t face his family. Subsequently, his health deteriorated.
Before finding a treatment, returning home meant accepting his own death in the eyes of his family. This cycle of hesitation and delay persisted until now.
A person’s lifetime is short, and sometimes missing an opportunity means
missing it forever.
Even though Gu Zhixing had returned now, their father would never come back.
After freshening up and changing her clothes, Lu Miao rested for a while and then headed upstairs as the time seemed appropriate.
Inside the suite, the atmosphere was predictably tense.
As soon as they saw her enter, the tension eased.
Lu Miao walked over directly, removed the needles, and then explained the follow-up instructions.
“Lu, how many more times does he need to be stabbed before he recovers?”Aluo asked.
“His condition is quite complex, and the delay has been too long. Depending on the progress, he might need at least six months to a year of acupuncture. Even after the acupuncture is done, he’ll still need to take medicine for several years to consolidate the treatment’s effects.”Lu Miao did not hide anything.
If Gu Zhixing had met her when his illness had just started, the situation would have been much better. Unfortunately, it was a few years too late.
“It’s already very good. We’re very lucky to have met you.”
Ah Luo’s eyes were red as he reached out to give her a big hug.
Previously, many doctors had already sentenced Gu Zhixing to death. Acupuncture and medicine were nothing. It was already their greatest fortune that he was alive!
Before his arms could reach him, he was pulled back by a huge force.
Aluo turned his head angrily. When he saw that it was Gu Shiyan, he curled his lips and took two steps back in fear.
Gu Shiyan turned to look at Gu Zhixing.” I’ll send Miaomiao back first. Go home immediately. “”
After saying that, he did not care about his reaction and said to Lu Miao,” Let’s go. “”
Lu Miao thought about it for a moment.” No need. You guys go back and see
Auntie Shen first. Jinxi probably drove over just now. I’ll drive his car back. ‘”‘
Gu Jinxi, who had finally finished brainstorming and figured everything out, suddenly stood up when he heard this. He rushed forward and reached out to grab her arm. His eyes lit up as he said,” Second Sister-in-law, you’re Q right?”
Without waiting for Lu Miao to speak, he said,” You’re not allowed to deny it. I’ve analyzed the way you and Qmade the turns in my head just now. It’s exactly the same. Moreover, Qwill only appear every time you go to the arena. That day at the competition, I went to look for you but couldn’t find you. However, Q appeared immediately after and even gave me a lot of pointers on technical issues. After the competition ended, Q disappeared and you appeared. Also, Qhelped me block the attack and injured his wrist. Your wrist is also injured in the same position. Second Sister-in-law, Qis you!”
Gu Jinxi did not give Lu Miao a chance to quibble at all. He went on a rampage and even listed out all kinds of evidence in detail.
Apparently, he had been brainstorming ever since he saw the bruise on Lu Miao’s wrist.
Lu Miao rubbed her nose and said helplessly,” I’ve never said that I’m not.”
“Oh, Second Sister-in-law. So you’re my goddess! Great, my goddess is by my side every day!”
Gu Jinxi shouted excitedly and pounced towards Lu Miao.
There was nothing more exciting than finding the goddess he had been thinking about for a long time by his side and seeing her in person every day.
“Second sister-in-law, hehehe, I really like you a lot,” Gu Jinxi’s expression of affection was straightforward. He giggled foolishly as he embraced Lu Miao, rubbing his furry head against her shoulder.
Lu Miao raised her hand and rubbed his head. “Yeah, I got it.” His hair was so fluffy that he really resembled a little dog.
Lu Miao couldn’t help but pat his head a couple of times.
He said mercilessly,” Go home with Big Brother.”
“No, I want to go back with my goddess.”Gu Jinxi resisted with all his might and struggled to get to Lu Miao’s side.
As a result, he was mercilessly held down by his tyrant second brother. He was then dragged downstairs and forcefully stuffed into Gu Zhixing’s car.
At night, Gu Shiyan and Gu Jinxi did not go back.
On Monday morning, Lu Miao arrived at school..
