“Do not get distracted. Stay focused, and immerse yourself in the moment.”
Ye Xiaofei gently commanded. His words made He Yuyao feel a bit embarrassed, as her momentary lapse of attention had been noticed by Ye Xiaofei.
Taking a deep breath, He Yuyao forced herself to stop daydreaming. Otherwise, not only would she miss a great learning opportunity, but it could also affect her image in Ye Xiaofei’s eyes.
Seeing that she was ready, Ye Xiaofei began to channel his true qi. He extracted a faint strand of true qi from He Yuyao’s dantian and guided it through her meridians, finally arriving at her hand.
At last, he held He Yuyao’s hand and inserted a silver needle into the patient’s acupoint.
The experience was truly rare, far exceeding the effects of her usual several months of practice.
He Yuyao quickly became completely engrossed in the marvelous sensation of needling.
Because the needles were being manipulated indirectly through her hands, the process took a bit more time. It took a full twenty minutes before it was complete.
Watching from the side, Director Zheng Zhenguo and Sun Mingyuan were both silently amazed, as they had never seen someone teach their disciple in such a way before.
However, they never thought that Ye Xiaofei was taking advantage of the situation.
They couldn’t help but envy He Yuyao for having such a fantastic opportunity. This was what true “hands-on” teaching meant, and it would undoubtedly lead to a significant improvement in He Yuyao’s acupuncture skills.
After the treatment, He Yuyao didn’t speak but sat directly in a nearby chair. She closed her eyes and carefully savored everything that had just happened. At this moment, the mental and physical experience was crucial, and she didn’t want to waste a single second.
Observing He Yuyao’s serious expression, Ye Xiaofei felt quite gratified.
Despite He Yuyao’s usually absent-minded behavior, she was genuinely dedicated when it came to studying medicine. From this perspective alone, she was indeed a promising talent.
Following the last cured police officer, Ye Xiaofei exited the emergency room.
All the police officers surrounded him, expressing their heartfelt gratitude.
Although in Chu Tong’s eyes, Ye Xiaofei was a scum who had only saved these police officers due to her own efforts.
In the views of others, Ye Xiaofei was a divine healer and the benefactor of their criminal investigation team.
Captain of the Armed Police, Xiao Qiang, tightly held Ye Xiaofei’s hand and said, “Doctor Ye, you not only saved me but also so many of my comrades. You are our criminal investigation team’s savior. If you ever need anything, just give the order, and all of us will be there.”
Ye Xiaofei narrowed his eyes and smiled, saying, “What if I wanted to do something illegal?”
Xiao Qiang’s expression stiffened for a moment, but then he burst into laughter and said, “Doctor Ye, you really know how to joke. With your status and abilities, anything you want can be easily obtained. Why bother with illegal activities?”
Ye Xiaofei glanced at Chu Tong and then said, “Their injuries were quite peculiar, so I’d like to understand what happened today. Captain Xiao, would you mind sharing some information with me?”
Xiao Qiang immediately and without hesitation replied, “If Mr. Ye is willing to help us with the case, it will undoubtedly be of great assistance. We couldn’t ask for more.”
After all, discussing matters inside the hospital was quite inconvenient, so Ye Xiaofei and the detectives headed straight to the police station.
On the way, Ye Xiaofei and Chu Tong sat together in a car.
Chu Tong was driving, and she noticed that Ye Xiaofei’s gaze was fixed on her, making her feel uneasy.
If it were someone else staring at her like that, she would have gotten angry right away. But now, she had to suppress her displeasure and said, “Rest assured, 1’11 do as I promised. Whenever you’re interested, I’ll be there.”
Ye Xiaofei smirked teasingly, “You seem more like going to battle rather than being a lover. You lack the disposition of one.”
Chu Tong tightened her grip on the steering wheel and said, “I’ve never had a boyfriend before, so I don’t know how to act. If there’s anything I’m doing wrong, just let me know, and I’ll try my best to do it right.”
In a slow and leisurely tone, Ye Xiaofei said, “Really? I have serious doubts about your words. No need to glare at me. Let me ask you, do you know the most crucial aspect of being a lover?”
“What is it?” Chu Tong asked with a sullen voice.
“It’s making me happy. Just look at yourself now. You’re all tensed up like you’re about to face an execution. Where’s the fun in that? If you don’t want to do this, then let’s forget about it. I helped you out this time, but I’ll consider it a waste of my efforts. You don’t have to feel any burden, and you certainly don’t need to worry about being unfaithful.”
“No! I won’t go back on my word. If it’s about making you happy, then 1’11 do it.”
Ye Xiaofei rolled her eyes and said, “It’s not enough to just say these things; you need to show it through your actions, you know?”
Chu Tong furrowed her eyebrows and asked, “Show it? You don’t expect me to strip right now for you, do you?”
Slapping her forehead, Ye Xiaofei said, “Chu Tong, do you think your value is limited to your body?”
Chu Tong looked slightly disdainful and replied, “1… Don’t you just want my body anyway?”
Ye Xiaofei squinted her eyes and said slowly, “You’re wrong. Besides your body, I also want your heart..”
