"Are you still holding a grudge because of the slap I reflexively almost gave you when I woke up? I didn't even hit you, why be so petty?"
i Yinxue rolled her eyes seductively, making Mu Jinyu's heart skip a beat.
Suppressing the restless heat in his heart, Mu Jinyu spread his hands helplessly and said, "How could I? You've given a Thousand-year Ginseng. How could I still hold a grudge over that?"
Mu Jinyu explained, "The reason I didn't leave you a prescription is simply that your body is in excellent condition. You've consud a lot of tonics over the years which weren't completely digested and still linger in your body. Under the action of my Silver Needle, those residual dicinal effects were stimulated and released, instantly replenishing your Elental Qi. So, you don't really need any recuperative prescription to replenish your spent Elental Qi. You're already brimming with it."
"Is that so..."
i Yinxue leaned on the counter with one hand supporting her cheek, her eyes slanting towards Mu Jinyu with a look of skepticism.
Mu Jinyu felt sowhat overwheld, turned his head away, and said, "Yes, that's right. I've already given you the prescription. If you don't believe , you can make one yourself and try drinking it. But if you end up with a nosebleed, don't co looking for . Alright, that's it then. I'm leaving."
"I didn't say I didn't believe you, really." i Yinxue chuckled softly, withdrew her hand, and straightened up, thinking Mu Jinyu was quite naive.
Seeing that Mu Jinyu was really about to leave, she added, "You didn't drive here, did you? Let give you a ride."
"Oh, right..." i Yinxue's words reminded Mu Jinyu of sothing. He turned back to look at i Yinxue and pointed with his hand, "You've paid the consultation fee, but you haven't reimbursed for the travel expenses yet."
i Yinxue: "..."
She stared at Mu Jinyu dumbfounded and said speechlessly, "You've made forty million from , and you're sweating the small stuff?!"
"One thing at a ti." Mu Jinyu asserted, "You should know, typically I don't make house calls; patients co to . But just now, one call from you and I got dressed and ca right over. You can forget the favor, but you have to reimburse the travel expenses."
i Yinxue rubbed her forehead, exasperated, "Alright, alright, you win. How much? I'll pay you double."
"Thirty yuan," Mu Jinyu replied imdiately. "No need to double it, rules are rules."
"Alright already." i Yinxue, not wanting to hassle over the small amount, nodded and said, "I don't have cash on . Can I transfer it to you via WeChat?"
"WeChat?" Mu Jinyu looked confused.
Seeing his expression, i Yinxue's eyebrow twitched a few tis, and she asked, "You don't have WeChat?"
"No, what's that?" Mu Jinyu inquired.
i Yinxue briefly explained it to him.
"Oh, I see," Mu Jinyu said, enlightened. He then handed his phone to i Yinxue, "Alright then, help set it up. I just bought this phone today and don't really know how to use it."
i Yinxue wordlessly took his phone, grumbling as she downloaded, registered, logged in, even adding herself as a friend, then transferred the thirty yuan before handing the phone back to Mu Jinyu.
"The money has been transferred. Just tap on 'Receive'," i Yinxue leaned toward Mu Jinyu, showing him how to accept the paynt. Google seaʀᴄh Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
Slling the faint scent coming from i Yinxue, Mu Jinyu felt sowhat unsettled as he tapped on 'Receive', then subtly moved away from her, "Done, I've got it."
i Yinxue, aware of Mu Jinyu's slight attempt to avoid her, chuckled inwardly but didn't tease him any further. Smiling, she said, "Then let's go, I'll drive you back."
The two walked out of the hospital to the parking lot. i Yinxue raised her hand and pointed to a Maybach, her chin lifting slightly, "Right over there."
Mu Jinyu also didn't recognize the car, walked over, and was about to pull the car door open.
But sensing that sothing about the atmosphere was off, he stopped his hand, frowning.
At that mont,
an elderly street sweeper, just happening to sweep towards them, approached as i Yinxue prepared to open the driver's side door.
"Whoosh!!"
A dazzling blade light suddenly appeared under the dim street light, exceptionally brilliant and spectacular, thrusting directly towards i Yinxue's throat.
"Be careful!"
Mu Jinyu, innately sensitive to danger, had felt sothing amiss while preparing to open the car door, and now, as the sword light flashed, he instantly embraced i Yinxue, pulling her away from the stabbing light, while with a flourish of his hand, several Silver Needles appeared, shooting towards the Assassin, whose body was no longer stooped!
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!"
The street sweeper Assassin, having straightened his back, hadn't expected his deadly sword strike to be thwarted by Mu Jinyu. He was slightly surprised and then, faced with the Silver Needles Mu Jinyu flicked towards him, he smirked disdainfully.
With a flick of his wrist, he drew a long sword from his broom and waved it, creating several fierce sword blooms, intending to split the incoming Silver Needles.
However, to his surprise, the degree of cunning in the Silver Needles flicked by Mu Jinyu far exceeded his expectations.
He managed to split two of the Silver Needles, but the last one took advantage of his mont of vulnerability and accurately hit one of his acupoints.
Thus, his body shuddered, the terrifying murderous aura and the burst of Qi Force vanished, and he collapsed.
"There's an Assassin, protect Sister i!"
Only then did the sturdy n at the door realize sothing was wrong, shouting loudly several tis as they rushed over.
i Yinxue was remarkably composed, leaning against Mu Jinyu's chest without any panic or fear of having narrowly escaped death, but rather, she slightly lifted her head, her lips as red as blood coming close to Mu Jinyu's ear, and murmured softly:
"Whew, thank you, Doctor Mu, you saved my life again tonight…"
The breath of i Yinxue was as fragrant as orchids, making Mu Jinyu's ear ticklish—of course, his heart even more so. He felt quite uncomfortable and pushed i Yinxue away, asking, "Are you all right?"
i Yinxue steadied herself, slightly annoyed at Mu Jinyu's apparent cluelessness about flirtation, adjusted her emotions, then turned back to him with a bright smile: "Of course, I'm fine, with you, Doctor Mu around, how could anything happen to ?"
She didn't ask why Mu Jinyu was so skilled; that wasn't her place to question.
She was always clever.
Besides, it was hardly surprising that Mu Jinyu had astonishing dical skills and knew Martial Arts, despite his young age.
Mu Jinyu saw her still in the mood to tease him, his brow slightly furrowed, thinking she probably had her own way of handling things even if he hadn't intervened.
With a self-mocking laugh, Mu Jinyu said, "It seems I was overthinking…"
i Yinxue was taken aback, quickly waved her hands, and said, "I didn't an anything by it, I am truly grateful for your intervention. Although I have so ans of self-protection, just now, in the heat of the mont, if you hadn't stepped in, I might not have survived."
