Impossible!
Despite Leng Jinpeng thinking this, he still had to maintain the appearance of a strict senior on the surface. He said comfortingly, “Don’t listen to Chi Yang. Just do whatever you need to do, don’t worry about me.”
Zhong Nuannuan smiled and did not say anything when he saw the shirtless Leng Jinpeng drenched in sweat from anxiety.
When she rubbed the cotton ball soaked with rubbing alcohol on his acupoints, she could feel his entire body tense up.
She did not expect the commander-in-chief of Jiang District’s military base to be afraid of needles.
When the first needle was about to touch his skin, Zhong Nuannuan saw the nervousness in Leng Jinpeng’s eyes. He was not afraid of bullets, and yet, he was afraid of needles.
All of a sudden, Zhong Nuannuan took action.
When Leng Jinpeng was about to say something to soothe his nerves, the first needle had already gone into his body.
Eh?
It did not hurt at all!
Not that it did not hurt, but when the needle went into him, he did not feel anything.
Zhong Nuannuan was fast. In less than 8 seconds, 20 needles had already accurately pierced all the acupoints on Leng Jinpeng’s body.
Leng Jinpeng did not even have time to come to his senses when Zhong Nuannuan ripped open the second bag of needles. After that, once again, she only took 8 seconds to insert all the needles into their respective acupoints. Leng Jinpeng and Chi Yang’s mouths dropped open from the sight of this.
When the third bag of needles went into his body, Leng Jinpeng and Chi Yang were already numb. They had seen many shocking things before this, such that their faces would remain expressionless even if a mountain were to fall on them. However, at this moment, they were dazed.
“Done.” Zhong Nuannuan looked at the time. “I’ll remove the needles in half an hour.”
After she said that, she took out two stands from her bag and put them on either side of the sofa.
The sofa was wide, so it was still spacious even after putting two stands on it.
After that, Zhong Nuannuan took a blanket from the chair and placed it on top of Leng Jinpeng. Because of the two stands, his body felt warm whilst the blanket did not touch the needles.
Zhong Nuannuan did all of this skillfully and with ease. It was obvious she had done a lot of this before.
Leng Jinpeng laughed and said, “You’re like a master hiding amongst commoners.”
In less than 30 minutes, the 60 silver needles were used. Even an experienced doctor could not achieve this skill.
“Uncle Leng, how do you feel?” Chi Yang asked.
Zhong Nuannuan was too fast, and he was overwhelmed.
Leng Jinpeng was so focused on Zhong Nuannuan’s god-like speed that he even forgot the thing he was most afraid of.
Now that he had come back to his senses, he saw all 60 long silver needles in his body. He started sweating immediately.
However, when he thought about his senses, he frowned. “Eh? It doesn’t hurt at all. I don’t feel anything!”
Chi Yang finally felt relieved.
“Well I actually feel something, but this sensation is actually quite nice.”
Leng Jinpeng was shocked to feel a wave of warmth slowly surging throughout his body. It was as though it was charting a path, and soon enough, his numb and sore arm no longer felt numb anymore because of the warmth.
He could even feel the blood in his fingers flowing smoothly.
Chi Yang did not expect Leng Jinpeng, who was deathly afraid of needles, to say that. He was shocked.
“Little girl, why do I feel like the blood in my body is flowing smoothly? Am I delusional?”
“No.” Zhong Nuannuan shook her head.
“Uncle Leng, if you can feel it flow, it means you’ll not feel pain. If you feel pain, that means your blood is not flowing smoothly. It’s the same concept with your internal organs.”
