"Your ankle is indeed sprained, but it's not a big problem."
Li Chuan squatted in front of Chen Sisi, took a look, and then said, "I'll give you a quick massage, and it'll be better soon."
"Okay..."
Chen Sisi stretched her leg out as straight as possible to make it easier for Li Chuan.
Li Chuan gently lifted Chen Sisi's ankle, then removed her sandal, revealing a delicate and exquisite foot. Her toenails were painted with shiny nail polish, giving a youthful vibe.
"At first, it might hurt a little, so please bear with it," Li Chuan cautioned, then began to gently massage Chen Sisi's foot.
"Oh~"
As Li Chuan exerted slight pressure, Chen Sisi let out a soft moan and her body trembled slightly, as if an electric current had coursed through her body, giving her a wonderfully peculiar sensation.
Moreover, her previously painful ankle suddenly stopped hurting and felt cool and pleasant, extrely comforting.
"It feels so good, Chuan. No wonder you're a graduate from the Jiangzhou College of Traditional Chinese dicine; your skills are truly amazing!"
"Oh, careful! That's a bit too strong—it hurts."
Hearing the moans next to his ear, Li Chuan felt a small fla growing in his Dantian, leaving him speechless. It's just a foot massage, what's with the sounds? Anyone unaware might think there was a battle going on here!
Luckily, Chen Sisi also realized her sounds were a bit enticing and a rosy hue quickly spread across her face, making her look very charming, reminding Li Chuan of the shy Immortal Sister, the resemblance uncanny!
"It's just a slight muscle strain, but nothing serious. Three minutes, and you'll be hopping around." Li Chuan smiled, comforting her.
With Li Chuan's Ghost Gate Pulse Technique and Lingxi True Qi, this was no joke.
Chen Sisi, sitting on a rock, looked down at Li Chuan's focused expression while massaging her and couldn't help but say, "Chuan, you're so handso, and your dical skills are excellent. Do many girls at school like you?"
Li Chuan looked up to reply but inadvertently caught a glimpse under Chen Sisi's skirt, of the alluring sight and a patch of black lace.
This made his eyes glued like magnets, unable to look away!
Chen Sisi noticed Li Chuan's abnormal gaze and her face turned crimson, her heart pounding as she teased softly, "Isn't it a bit much to stare under a girl's skirt like that?"
This snapped Li Chuan back to reality, and he quickly withdrew his gaze, wishing he could vanish into thin air!
All because of that troubleso Lingxi Mutual Sensitivity Technique!
Li Chuan felt like a big pervert now.
"No thrill in it—having a wicked mind but no guts!"
Chen Sisi grumbled internally.
She had thought Li Chuan was passionate and brave, but turns out, he's timid, which is quite boring.
Three minutes later, Li Chuan withdrew his hand, a bit awkwardly saying, "Sisi, it's done. Try walking a bit."
Chen Sisi imdiately stood up, walked, and bounced around with joy, exclaiming, "Chuan, Little Divine Doctor! Your skills are outstanding! Looks like our village will be lucky with a little dragon flying in from the chicken coop!"
Li Chuan blushed with a shy smile.
Then, as they walked and chatted, Li Chuan quickly learned more about Taohua Village.
This village, due to its remote location, is the poorest in Jiangzhou City.
Many n in the village couldn't earn money and went out to work elsewhere, leaving mostly the elderly, children, and won behind. Of course, there are so n too, mainly those who are rather lazy.
"Chuan, with your great dical skills and handso looks, you should be careful in our village. So widows love young n like you," Chen Sisi teased.
Li Chuan looked a bit embarrassed, "I don't think that'll happen."
Soon, Chen Sisi led Li Chuan into Taohua Village, which appeared very rustic to Li Chuan. Many houses were built with stones, a fresh sight, and the village had a stream flowing slowly from the mountain, creating a unique scenery that could easily turn into a tourist spot.
"Village chief, this is Li Chuan, a student from the Jiangzhou College of Traditional Chinese dicine, responsible for the village's herbal planting base," Chen Sisi introduced as they reached the village chief's house. The village chief, Chen Yunzhou, ca out with a large tobacco pipe in hand.
On seeing Li Chuan, Chen Yunzhou nodded slightly, "A student from Jiangzhou College of Traditional Chinese dicine, welco. The herbal base will be in your hands now."
"But our Taohua Village has poor conditions compared to the city; you should be ntally prepared. So students ca before and left in a few days."
"Your accommodation is at the village committee. Chen Sisi, since you're along the way, take him there."
"Okay."
The herbal base set up by the Jiangzhou College was ant to increase Taohua Village's inco, but few wanted to co, and those who did, didn't stay long. Initially, so herbs were produced, but later no one managed it.
Village committee.
It's a courtyard with several big tile-roofed houses. So were locked, others weren't. Chen Sisi led Li Chuan to one room, opened the door, revealing only a wooden bed and a dust-covered desk, along with a four-legged chair.
"Looks like my decision was too hasty."
Li Chuan was speechless at the sight of the room.
"Thanks, Sisi, if you have no other matters, you can go back first; I'll clean up here myself." Li Chuan smiled.
"Alright, I'll head off then." Chen Sisi nodded.
Li Chuan put down his backpack and began cleaning the room.
Soon, the room was clean.
Though glancing at the bare wooden bed, Li Chuan felt a bit troubled.
How to sleep at night? Should he just continue cultivating?
At that mont, Chen Sisi's voice ca from outside the door, "Chuan."
Li Chuan turned to see Chen Sisi carrying a new set of bedding. The pillowcase was embroidered with a peony flower.
"Sisi, what's this?" Li Chuan asked, puzzled.
"Look at the weather, it's about to be autumn soon, and the mountain temperatures are low. You ca with nothing; you'd freeze at night," Chen Sisi said, brushing a lock of hair from her cheek.
"These blankets and pillows are mine—I can't use them all myself, so make do with them."
"Sisi, it's too much trouble," Li Chuan felt very touched.
"It's nothing; you have no relatives or friends here. I should take care of you," Chen Sisi said while helping Li Chuan make the bed.
"Sisi, let help,"
Li Chuan stepped forward to help with the blankets.
The blankets had a light fragrance, similar to Chen Sisi's scent.
Realizing he'd be sleeping wrapped in her used blankets, Li Chuan couldn't help but let his mind wander.
Soon, they finished making the bed.
"By the way, does Taohua Village have a WeChat group? If so, add in," Li Chuan sat on the bed, watching the sunlight turn gold as it slanted into the room, suddenly reminded of his childhood in Ping'an Town.
