The long acupuncture session was over, but this was just the beginning.

Chen Yi looked at Suo Heng and said, “The nine needles of heavenly recovery has been applied. It may be effective in a while. During this period of time, you may have a fever, followed by pain that affects the nerves. This is a normal phenomenon. Fever is the stimulation of potential, and pain is the fight between the immune system and cancer cells, so this process is difficult, but I will ensure your personal safety, please be rest assured.”

Suo Heng nodded. Now, it would be hard to give up halfway, right?

The room became quiet again. Chen Yi was observing his situation from the side. After about twenty minutes, Suo Heng’s skin gradually turned red, as if it was being burned by a flame.

The red color first crept onto his face, and then spread throughout his body. Not only was his skin red, but his body temperature was also gradually rising. This was a symptom of the immune cells cleaning up other cells. This was also why people would have inflammation when they caught a cold.

Suo Heng began to sweat, and even his breathing began to become messy. Sweat kept falling from his forehead, neck, and body, and his feet were almost wet.

This reaction was fierce. Chen Yi grabbed his wrist again and began to check his pulse. He also checked his body condition.

After a while, Chen Yi said, “Boss Fucha, it may start to hurt. Please bear with it.”

Then, Chen Yi started to needle. When he started the process, it was accompanied by the pain from the nerve endings. The pain hit his brain and he reacted quickly. Suo Heng’s face turned pale and he could not help but groan.

The needles were not pulled out completely. Instead, they fluctuated by one or two centimetres. The movement of the needles could not be stopped. The 326 needles on his body were pulled out correspondingly. Chen Yi did not stop, and the veins on Suo Heng’s forehead also jumped up.

Chen Yi’s hand speed was very fast. It looked like he pulled out the silver needles casually, but there was a faint rhythm to it.

However, all of this had to be refined. If any needle was pulled out a little less or a little more, it would be fatal!

Time seemed to pass very slowly. In the entire room, there was only the sound of Chen Yi’s breathing and Suo Heng’s low humming. The humming was both restrained and painful.

The bodyguards at the door listened to this torturous sound for an unknown amount of time. They wanted nothing more than to drag Chen Yi out and beat him up. However, because of Suo Heng’s instructions, none of them moved.

Listening to this sound, it was as if Chen Yi was just playing around.

Those who did not understand the situation saw Chen Yi’s actions and felt that he was indeed torturing Suo Heng. Because the 326 needles were repeatedly pulled out by Chen Yi and then abruptly inserted back in.

The depth of the needles changed slightly, and the pain in Suo Heng’s body continued to come.

Moreover, sometimes Chen Yi’s silver needles would pierce deep into his body, as though if any more strength was applied, it would pierce through his whole body.

Suo Heng did not see what was happening to him. His attention was focused on the pain. If someone else saw it, they would definitely think that Chen Yi was doing it on purpose! What kind of deep hatred was this to be using such a method to torture others!

However, Chen Yi’s expression was serious. He had been frowning since the start of the acupuncture. He did not relax at all.

The nine needles of heavenly recovery was a test of Chen Yi’s technique. He was unpredictable and used force cautiously because every move he made almost affected a person’s life.

Therefore, not only was Suo Heng covered in sweat, but even Chen Yi’s back was wet. Sweat flowed down his hair and cheeks. He was only focused on the acupuncture points and silver needles.

326 needles. Chen Yi needed to pay attention to every single one of them. Therefore, even though his hands were fast, and even with the help of his golden fingers, he was still extremely busy.

This feeling made his hands busy. He wished he had three heads and six arms.

About four hours passed. It was about 12:30 in the afternoon. Chen Yi heaved a sigh of relief and reached out to feel the pulse of Suo Heng’s wrist.

He carefully checked the pulse and did not miss a single detail. He also seemed to be deep in thought. After a minute, he finally moved and removed the 18 needles from Suo Heng’s body.

The bodyguard at the door knocked slightly. There was no sound of Suo Heng calling from inside. “Doctor Chen, is it over? Do you need to arrange lunch?”

Chen Yi rubbed his temples and said coldly, “Not yet. Don’t make any noise to disturb me. I’ll tell you when it’s done.”

He finished speaking through the door, not knowing how unpleasant his tone was. The bodyguard wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he did not disturb him.

The young doctor seemed to casually place his hand on Suo Heng’s pulse. He closed his eyes as if he was resting. However, Chen Yi’s expression did not relax at all. It was more like he was waiting for something.

Suddenly, Chen Yi opened his eyes. His gaze flashed and he immediately pulled out the nine silver needles!

Then, he placed his hand on Suo Heng’s wrist and repeated the previous operation.

Just like that, he repeated it no less than twenty times. When the last nine silver needles were removed from Suo Heng’s body, Chen Yi untied the restraints on his body and helped him onto the bed to lie down.

Only then did Chen Yi say to the door, “Alright, prepare some glucose water, and a saline solution will do.”

The bodyguard’s actions were swift, and he quickly rushed over with the glucose water. Chen Yi cooperated with the bodyguard and lifted up the weak Suo Heng, feeding him a lot of glucose water. “Boss Fucha, glucose to replenish your strength. Drink some.”

Suo Heng could barely exert his strength. He was on the verge of death, and it was already difficult for him to even speak. It was as if he could faint at any time!

Chen Yi saw Suo Heng’s condition and pinched his chin. He pried open his mouth and poured down the glucose water forcefully, forcing him to drink it.

The bodyguard on the side had an unsightly expression, but he did not stop him. “Doctor Chen, do you still need more?”

“No, this is enough.” Chen Yi placed the bowl on the side. “He’s just a little weak. He’ll recover in a while. We’ll just wait.”

Just like that, the few of them waited in the hotel room, waiting for Suo Heng to wake up. It took Suo Heng more than an hour to wake up from his dazed state to a little consciousness.

When he opened his eyes, he was still a little weak. It was as if his entire body had been crushed, and his bones were aching.

After a long time, Suo Heng came back to his senses. He felt that he had gone to the underworld ahead of time. Only then did he slowly smile. “Doctor Chen, is the treatment over?”

“Yes, it’s over. Congratulations for surviving.”Chen Yi nodded and wiped the sweat off his body with a tissue.

“It went very smoothly, right?” Suo Heng asked.

“Yes, everything is smooth. There are no accidents. Although you have been cured by me, your body is still very weak. I suggest that you take good care of yourself and mix it with moderate exercise. It will be better,” Chen Yi said, then he felt for Suo Heng’s pulse.

It was steady, without the previous chaotic fluctuations..
