Chapter 285 - Unlocking Acupoints 2

Hearing Liu Zijin’s gentle voice, Wang Huilan’s tears fell like rain.

She understood that Liu Zijin did not intend to tell her about this. If she had not told Xiaolu that she had taken contraceptives, she would not have known about this.

It turned out that at that time, he was telling the truth when he said that he liked her.

She had received a very sincere love. He had never lied to her.

“Lan, don’t cry. What did I do wrong? Just tell me and I’ll change. If you cry like this, it’ll hurt your eyes and your body.”

Liu Zijin was flustered. He didn’t know what had happened, but he felt terrible when he saw Wang Huilan crying like this. He hoped that she would smile every day.

Little did he know that the gentler he was, the more Wang Huilan cried.

Wang Huilan hugged Liu Zijin’s waist and cried uncontrollably.

Liu Zijin didn’t know how to comfort him. He wanted to know what was going on, but he didn’t know who he could ask.

Ever since they got married, Wang Huilan had never been so sad. Liu Zijin did not understand why.

“Hubby…”

Wang Huilan choked.

Liu Zijin wiped the tears off Wang Huilan’s face and said, “I’m here.”

“Huilan, don’t cry. I don’t know anything. You’re making me panic.”

Just watching her cry made him feel powerless.

Wang Huilan calmed herself down, but she couldn’t hold back her tears. She looked at Liu Zijin, whose eyes were also red. Wang Huilan buried her face in Liu Zijin’s chest and said, “Why didn’t you tell me that you got Xiaolu to seal your acupuncture points?”

Wang Huilan’s heart trembled. She could not imagine what Liu Zijin was thinking for him to do this.

Wasn’t he afraid that he would never be a father in the future?

“You found out.”

Liu Zijin was relieved. Knowing the reason, he no longer panicked. He led Wang Huilan to the bed and sat down. He wiped Wang Huilan’s tears dry and looked at her seriously. “Madam, you’ve made a lot of sacrifices for me. I didn’t let you take the contraceptives again because it was convenient. Xiaolu is a divine doctor. She can do anything she promises. This won’t harm my body at all.”

“I didn’t want to tell you, but I didn’t expect you to find out. You’re so good to me. I’m just repaying you. Isn’t this how we should be as husband and wife? I only did a small thing to move you to this state.”

Liu Zijin smiled. Wang Huilan was too kind.

Wang Huilan looked at Liu Zijin with red eyes and said, “It’s not as easy as you say.”

It was clearly a big matter, but Liu Zijin made it a small matter with just two sentences.

Wang Huilan said seriously, “Hubby, go find Xiaolu.”

Liu Zijin nodded. “Yes, I was going to find her to unseal the acupuncture points. You’re in good health, and so am I. I think we should be ready to be parents.”

Liu Zijin looked deeply at Wang Huilan. His affectionate gaze made Wang Huilan blush and she lowered her eyes shyly. However, in the next second, Liu Zijin reached out and lifted Wang Huilan’s chin.

“Madam is so beautiful.”

Liu Zijin smiled.

He liked to see Wang Huilan’s face gradually turn red. He liked how she looked in front of him.

They had clearly been together for more than two years, but Wang Huilan still looked at him with such shyness and admiration. He knew that Wang Huilan’s heart definitely beat very fast when their gazes met.

Liu Zijin leaned in and kissed her lightly.

…

The next morning, Liu Zijin looked for Su Xiaolu.

Su Xiaolu was not surprised that Liu Zijin came. She asked Liu Zijin to sit down and took his pulse first.

Liu Zijin sat down quietly. He reached out and said gently to Su Xiaolu, “Xiaolu, thank you.”

Su Xiaolu said calmly, “It’s a small matter.”

Liu Zijin’s body was not bad. His strong pulse meant that he was right.

Judging from his complexion, he was also rosy-faced and walked with a gust of wind. It seemed that his happiness was not a lie.

Su Xiaolu asked Liu Zijin to take off his shirt and turn his back to her.

Su Xiaolu took out a silver needle and inserted it into Liu Zijin’s waist.

Liu Zijin asked, “Xiaolu, how long will it take to recover after the acupuncture points are unsealed?”

Wang Huilan wanted a child, and so did he.

“In fifteen minutes.”

Su Xiaolu quickly inserted the silver needles. She retracted her hand and patted it. “That’s enough. Sit down. If you feel a warm feeling at your waist, just tell me.”

Liu Zijin nodded. He sat quietly and watched Su Xiaolu pack up the needle bag. He asked, “Xiaolu, will you take in disciples in the future?”

Su Xiaolu rolled her eyes. “Of course. Do you think I might not take in disciples?”

Liu Zijin smiled and said, “In the future, can my daughter learn a thing or two from you?”

After following Su Xiaolu, no matter how unskilled his daughter was, she could still understand some medical knowledge. Knowing medical science was beneficial to women.

Su Xiaolu looked at Liu Zijin. He already had designs on her.

Su Xiaolu spread her hands. “We’ll see. You’re so talkative.”

Su Xiaolu felt that Liu Zijin inexplicably wanted to get close to her, as if she was his sister too.

Su Xiaolu felt that it might be because Liu Zijin did not have any siblings. When he was at his most difficult time, Su Chong helped him. He was on good terms with his eldest brother and second brother, so he loved her as well.

However, she did not want to be too familiar with Liu Zijin. Moreover, she knew too little about Liu Zijin, so the sense of distance could not be eliminated.

Liu Zijin did not care about Su Xiaolu’s alienation. He said gently to Su Xiaolu, “I heard from Chong that you like to eat snacks. I asked the kitchen to make a lot of it. Eat some. If you like it, tell the maidservant to make more for you to eat on the way.”

Su Xiaolu was speechless.

She understood the principle of taking advantage of others.

Su Xiaolu waved her hand. “Thank you, but no.”

Liu Zijin felt that Su Xiaolu was very cute. She was very good-looking. She was almost eleven years old and still had the childishness of a child, but she also had the bright posture of a young girl. No matter how he looked at her, he liked her very much. He also wanted a sister like her.

Often, Liu Zijin was very envious of Su Chong and Su Hua.

“Xiaolu, my waist feels warm.”

A warmth came from his waist. Liu Zijin said to Su Xiaolu.

Su Xiaolu came over to get the needle. After she was done, Su Xiaolu said to Liu Zijin, “Alright, you can leave.”

Liu Zijin put on his clothes and said, “Alright, I’ll go look for Chong and the others. If you’re bored, you can get my wife to accompany you for a walk. We’ll set off from here tomorrow morning.”

With that, Liu Zijin left.

Su Xiaolu was not bored. She was not familiar with Wang Huilan, so she would not look for her.

She sat cross-legged and cultivated her internal energy and mental cultivation techniques. A day passed just like that.

At night, a maidservant came to invite her to dinner. It was County Magistrate Wang who invited her. Su Chong and the others were waiting for Su Xiaolu to go with them.

County Magistrate Wang was also a bit chubby. He looked very friendly with a smile. He told everyone to sit down and make themselves at home.
