Chapter 119: Unlocking (Fifth Update)
Translator: 549690339
Wu Shanshan and her mother were so nervous that they felt like they were suffocating. They couldn’t help but grasp each other’s hands, their palms slick with cold sweat.
Qian Gang maintained a dismissive expression on his face.
Old Master Fang, on the other hand, was wide-eyed, unblinkingly watching Huang Xiaolong, as if afraid of missing any detail.
He believed that every move of Huang Xiaolong would open a new window for him in the field of traditional Chinese medicine.
“Uncle, your leg’s Sanyinjiao, the Spleen Meridian of Foot-Taiyin, and the Xuehai, Zusanli, Weizhong acupoints are all blocked. I will unlock them for you using a secret folk technique,” Huang Xiaolong said with a smile. “Unlocking these meridians and acupoints requires the butterfly technique…”
With that, Huang Xiaolong made his move!
His hands fluttered like a butterfly, their movements graceful and elegant, as he began tapping on Old Wu’s legs.
After dozens of taps, Huang Xiaolong paused and then cheerfully said to Old
Wu, “Uncle, you’re good now. Try to stand up.”
“This… This is… strange…” Old Wu said, looking surprised. “It seems I have regained some feeling! ”
“Dad! Try to stand up!” Wu Shanshan called out, both excited and nervous.
“Old Wu, let me help you,” Mother Wu quickly came forward.
“Tsk, just a few taps and he can stand up? Do you think this is a TV drama?” Qian Gang muttered under his breath disdainfully.
“No need! Don’t help me! I… I feel strength in my legs!” Old Wu suddenly yelled. “Let me do it myself!”
The next moment, he pushed himself up like a fish leaping out of water and stood upright!
“Hahaha! I’m standing again! I’m standing again!” Old Wu announced excitedly, eyes filled with tears. Then, taking a step forward, he jumped down from the bed. “Hahaha! I can walk again! My leg, it’s healed! It’s truly healed!” Seeing this, Mother Wu burst into tears, “Old Wu, you’re cured!”
Old Wu kept walking back and forth in the room, “Oh, I feel so strong! I really
He suddenly looked at Wu Shanshan, “Daughter! You have to repay Little
Huang properly! He saved my life, our family can’t forget this kindness.”
“Uh… dad, I understand.” Wu Shanshan was so touched that she almost shed tears of joy. She looked up, then directly pulled Huang Xiaolong away. “Let’s talk outside.”
Outside, in the living room.
“Huang Xiaolong, about what happened today, I…l’m just so grateful to you,” Wu Shanshan stammered. “You heard what my dad said. So, tell me, how do you want me to repay you?”
Wu Shanshan had a deep affection for her father. When the hospital told her that her dad needed to have his leg amputated, she felt like the world was falling apart.
Today, Huang Xiaolong made her dad miraculously stand again. If he wanted her to sacrifice herself for him, she wouldn’t hesitate.
“Um…” Huang Xiaolong was about to say that he didn’t need anything in return, but when he looked up and saw Wu Shanshan’s attractive red lips, something stirred inside him. “Fat Wu, do you really want to repay me?”
“Do you think I’m joking? What kind of person do you think I am? I, Wu
Shanshan, am someone who repays a kindness! I’m no ungrateful person!” Wu Shanshan became a little angry. “Huang Xiaolong, just say it. How do you want me to repay you? As long as you say it, I, Wu Shanshan, won’t hesitate!”
“Well, Fat Wu, I… hehe, can you kiss me? You know, mouth-to-mouth?” Huang Xiaolong said with a chuckle. “Just now, five minutes of kissing would count as repayment. We farm kids never kissed a girl before, so bear with me.”
“A kiss? For five minutes? Right now? In… in my living room?” Wu Shanshan was a little taken aback…
“Yeah, Fat Wu, come on! Kiss me as much as you like!” Huang Xiaolong exaggeratedly laughed.
“You want me to repay you like this?” Wu Shanshan frowned slightly.
This… Isn’t this just being a lecher?
Normally, given Wu Shanshan’s personality, hearing such an unreasonable request, she should have flown into a rage and physically confronted Huang Xiaolong.
However, strangely enough, she didn’t fly off the handle when she heard the request from Huang Xiaolong. Instead, she felt really conflicted.
First, Huang Xiaolong indeed saved her father’s life and in doing so saved their family. It brought back long-lost smiles to her father’s face, a face that had been filled with despair and gauntness.
Second, Huang Xiaolong’s skills were extraordinary. So, even if she were to fight him, Wu Shanshan could only end up at a disadvantage. Didn’t she suffer enough in the interrogation room before?
Third, Wu Shanshan had always been very strong-willed, even thinking that she was stronger than most men in the world. She was a bit of a tough woman. Usually, such women have a strong self-defense mechanism, but are often fragile from the inside while pretending to be strong on the outside. Once someone broke through her defenses, it would be akin to a dam blowing off! Huang Xiaolong, being stronger, was like a wedge that had broken her hard shell!
She definitely admired Huang Xiaolong very much!
When a woman comes to admire a man, she invariably ends up having a positive view of the man and… could even start liking him!
In other words, at this moment, Wu Shanshan’s subconscious might actually like Huang Xiaolong a bit. It’s just that she may not have realized it yet… Fourth, Huang Xiaolong had already taken a lot of advantages from her!
Well, considering all this, what’s a little kiss?
“Hey… Fat Wu, it seems like you’re not willing. Then just forget about what I said.” Huang Xiaolong deliberately put on a disappointed face. “I thought you really wanted to repay me.”
“You… you… shut up! Do you take me, Wu Shanshan, as a fickle person?” The usually tough Wu Shanshan blushed, her eyes sparkling with anger, yet they quickly filled with tears, turning her face red like a rose.
She gritted her teeth, “Fine! A kiss it is. Who’s afraid of who? Also, this is my first kiss… you… you got a great deal! Be quick, so my mother doesn’t see us!”
After saying that, Wu Shanshan, with a resolved expression, tensed up and reached out to wrap her arms around Huang Xiaolong’s neck lightly. Given that she was almost 10 cm taller than Huang Xiaolong, she had to bow her head down to kiss him.
Such a posture gave the impression that Wu Shanshan was forcing a kiss on Huang Xiaolong!
Huang Xiaolong stood still as Wu Shanshan moved her lips closer to his.
Blushing, Wu Shanshan closed her eyes…
Her eyelashes were trembling slightly…
Her face was delicate and pretty…
The scent from her breath was so sweet…
Indeed, it was intoxicating!
