Chapter 115 - An Inconvenient Area
A woman so beautiful that she could be likened to a harbinger of adversity...Luo Ziling could not help but have mixed feelings when he thought of this.
After taking a few deep breaths, he finally managed to calm himself down.
He briefly explained the acupuncture method to Ouyang Feifei and Wang Qing, and it was only when they had no objections did he start the procedure.
After picking out a thin needle and finding the right acupoint, he quickly inserted the needle inside, then rotated it.
Wang Qing, who was watching from the sidelines, was a little scared by Luo Ziling's actions. Her mouth fell open unconsciously.
However, Ouyang Feifei, who was lying on the bed, did not have any reaction. It was as if she did not feel any pain at all.
When Luo Ziling circulated his Qi and began to channel it through the needle, she seemed to react to it. She cried out softly, but immediately stopped herself..
"What do you feel?" Luo Ziling asked.
"It doesn't hurt. I feel numb and Itchy, and it also feels a little hot," she said honestly.
Luo Ziling heaved a sigh of relief. "That's good, then."
After that, he picked up another needle and pierced another acupunctural point, but Ouyang Feifei still did not react to it. She only moved slightly whenever Luo Ziling channeled his Qi into the needle and would tell him how she felt.
Wang Qing couldn't help but think that whatever she was witnessing was rather unbelievable. How could her mistress not feel any pain even when she had such a long needle being stabbed into her body?
But she knew that Ouyang Feifei was definitely not acting. If she felt any pain, her mistress would not be able to hold back the uncomfortable feeling.
Therefore, although she was shocked, she did not say anything and did not stop Luo Ziling from inserting the needles.
Not long after, Ouyang Feifei's fair and tender back looked akin to a porcupine's back, which was rather unsettling to see, but she still didn't seem to be in any pain.
After about half an hour of acupuncture treatment, Luo ziling, who was covered in sweat, pulled out all the needles.
While he looked calm on the surface, he was feeling rather emotional. Ouyang Feifei had willingly let him insert needles into her body for the first time, which was a little unbelievable.
He really did not expect to be able to use such a method to treat Ouyang Feifei. It could only be said that she still trusted him.
After Luo Ziling pulled out the needles, Wang Qing rushed forward and used a sterilized warm towel to wipe down Ouyang Feifei's body.
She couldn't help but find it strange that there was no blood to be found at all, though there were red dots left behind where the needles had been inserted. If she did not look carefully, she really would not be able to see it.
After Luo Ziling cleaned up the silver needles, he decided to bring up the awkward topic. "Actually, there is another acupunctural point: the Shanzhong Acupuncture Point, which will be quite effective. But, uh, it's here, you see." As he spoke, Luo Ziling gestured to where it was. "It's a little inconvenient, so we won't be using that particular point for now. We'll see how your condition changes with the other points that I mentioned."
When Luo Ziling said this, Ouyang Feifei gave him a strange look, but did not say anything, nor did her expression change much.
Upon seeing her expression, Luo Ziling was afraid that she would misunderstand that he had an ulterior motive, so he quickly explained, "The effect of the Shanzhong acupuncture treatment is quite good, but if treating the other points turns out to be effective, then we can also use, we can also use moxibustion to treat you."
"Alright, the principles of acupuncture are quite complicated, and acupuncture and moxibustion are two completely different methods of treatment. If you don't understand this, I can't really explain it clearly."
Lying on her back, Ouyang Feifei, who was embarrassed to get out of bed, nodded slightly to show that she understood.
On the other hand, her assistant, Wang Qing, looked at Luo ziling with a strange expression, as if she suspected that he was saying all this for a reason.
Luo Ziling completely ignored her puzzled gaze and lowered his head, beginning to pack up the things he had just used.
After he finished, he asked Ouyang Feifei for a pen and paper. "Can you give me a pen and paper so I can write you a prescription?"
"Then go to my study." Ouyang Feifei gestured for Wang Qing to bring Luo Ziling there.
She was embarrassed to get up for now, and pulled the quilt up to cover her body. She didn't want anyone else to see how disheveled she looked now.
Wang Qing gestured to Luo Ziling to follow her. He did so immediately and went with her to the study that was connected to the bedroom.
Ouyang Feifei's study was as big as her bedroom was. It was spotless inside, and there were many books on display in the cabinet. It was quite like her.
This woman was definitely a goddess in the eyes of most men. She was outstanding in all aspects.
When Luo Ziling was sizing up Ouyang Feifei's study, Wang Qing had already prepared a calligraphy brush and some ink for him. What surprised him the most, though, was that she'd given him A4 paper to write on instead of the proper rice paper. He didn't know whether he should laugh or cry at this combination.
However, he made do with what he had. After writing his prescriptions out, he put the brush down, then got up and smiled at Wang Qing. "When the ink is dry, pick up the medicine written down here. Remember, you must buy it from the Big Pharmacy. Don't go to the small pharmacy. The quality of the medicine must be guaranteed!"
Wang Qing nodded wordlessly.
Luo Ziling couldn't help but feel a little displeased. These two women...why did they have practically the same personality? They were acting like their words were worth gold.
"Is there a place where I can wash my face?" he asked stiffly. His body was covered in sweat. Although it wouldn't be realistic to ask to take a bath here, he still needed to wash his face, at least.
Wang Qing looked at Luo Ziling strangely, seemingly having heard the displeasure in his voice. She said softly, "Go to the guest room at the side to rest. My mistress still needs to take a bath."
"Okay, then when she comes out, I'll talk about the moxibustion therapy." Luo Ziling was not interested in conversing with Wang Qing anymore. He picked up his bag and followed her out of Ouyang Feifei's room.
The guest room was two corridors away from Ouyang Feifei's room. Wang Qing led him into an unlocked room with practiced ease.
"Young Master Luo, it's okay if you want to take a shower or rest. I'll come and fetch you later," she said, then nodded at him and walked out.
"Okay," Luo Ziling said, closing the door. He threw his bag aside and headed into the bathroom to wash his face, but after seeing the situation in the room and bathroom, he decided to take a shower.
He quickly took off his clothes and rushed into the bathroom naked. After a quick shower, Luo Ziling opened the door and was ready to head back. But when he looked outside, he didn't see anyone waiting for him. After thinking over his situation for a little while, he finally retreated back into the room.
No one had come to show him the way back, nor did he know where to go.
Where was Ouyang Feifei? And where was Wang Qing?
