"Wow... Chu Yang... your acupuncture technique is so magical... I feel a stream of cool air running out of my body... I've had acupuncture before... but I've never felt anything like this..." Chen Xi was astonished.
Chu Yang smiled faintly, "Females are of yin, and their bodies tend to be cold. The cool air you feel escaping is the yin energy within your body. It's this accumulated coldness that results in the intense pain during your menstrual cramps."
Chen Xi had a moment of realization, "So that's how it is."
"Mr. Chu, when will my illness be cured?"
Chu Yang, looking at Chen Xi's curvaceous figure, let out a chuckle and said, "The cold energy in your body is quite severe and will require multiple treatments."
"However, there is another method that could quickly cure your condition."
Chen Xi immediately asked, "What method?"
"Our Chu family has passed down a Whip Technique from ancient times."
"This technique requires deep understanding and firmly rooted execution—it is the unique Whip Technique of the Chu family."
"Using this technique, the cold energy accumulated in your body can be expelled in just a few sessions," said Chu Yang, meaningfully gazing at Chen Xi.
Chen Xi was initially excited, but then she pondered Chu Yang's words and found something odd... She glanced at Chu Yang shyly, "This... this... let's not joke about this, Mr. Chu..."
Chu Yang sighed and with a compassionate look in his eyes, he earnestly said, "In fact, your constitution is severely yin, with an overabundance of cold energy, typical of a woman with excessive yin energy."
"You require the strong Yang Qi of a man to balance it out, and then the symptoms inside your body will naturally disappear."
Chen Xi was stunned, realizing the earnest and compassionate nature of Chu Yang's gaze. At that moment, she felt that Chu Yang had no ulterior motive and genuinely hoped to heal her illness.
Chen Xi began to blame herself, "It seems I've wronged Mr. Chu... How foolish of me..."
"Mr. Chu saved my life... How could I think of him in that way... It's so unfair to Mr. Chu... He is truly concerned about healing my illness..."
Chu Yang checked the time; half an hour had passed, so he stood up to remove the needles from Chen Xi, discarding them in the trash bin, "This session is over; please get dressed."
Chen Xi replied softly, dressing with her back to Chu Yang.
After dressing, Chen Xi took out two hundred thousand yuan from the safe and handed it to Chu Yang.
Chu Yang stowed the money in his backpack, "It's getting late, and I need to return to the village. Manager Chen, I shall take my leave."
"Ah... leaving so soon?... I wanted to invite you for a meal... to thank you..." Chen Xi hadn't expected Chu Yang to leave and deeply wanted to apologize for misunderstanding him earlier, yet the words wouldn't come out.
Chu Yang waved his hand dismissively, "Forget it, I live far away, and if I go back late, it will be dark."
"Manager Chen, since your body has just undergone treatment, eat more light foods. In addition, the weather might turn colder in the next few days, so take care of yourself and don't catch a cold," Chu Yang advised before shouldering his backpack and departing.
Chen Xi watched Chu Yang's retreating figure, filled with remorse, her eyes brimming with tears, "I just misunderstood Mr. Chu... not only did he not blame me... but he also advised me to take care of myself... Mr. Chu is really too good... I... I misunderstood you... and didn't even say I'm sorry... I'm really so useless..."
Chen Xi leaned against the door frame, gazing at the place where Chu Yang had left as if she'd used up all her energy.
"Oh no... I didn't get Mr. Chu's contact information... I don't know when we'll meet again after this encounter... I'm really so foolish..."
"Lord in heaven... please ensure that I can see Mr. Chu again..." Chen Xi silently prayed in her heart.
Chu Yang left Qingcao Hall and boarded the county bus heading towards the countryside.
When she arrived back in Yunxi, dusk was approaching.
Chu Yang reached the entrance of the village and looked up at the luxurious six-story villa next to her, nestled between mountains and water.
This grand rural villa belonged to Wang Dehong, with a BMW worth a million yuan and an off-road Mercedes-Benz worth one and a half million parked in front. The BMW was Wang Dehong's, and the Mercedes belonged to Wang Chengcai.
Yunxi Village is secluded, separated from the outside world by only a rural dirt road, which is why no one dares to provoke Wang Dehong despite his wrongdoing within the village.
Chu Yang shifted her gaze away; she had another important task to attend to.
That was to detoxify Sisi, Xu Qianqian's daughter.
The previous evening, Chu Yang had left a few strands of Mountain King Ginseng root precisely for this purpose.
Since she had to sell the Mountain King Ginseng in the morning, detoxifying Sisi had to wait until she returned.
Moreover, the one hundred thousand yuan that Xu Qianqian was cheated out of by Ge Dazhi had also been retrieved by Chu Yang.
She planned to return the one hundred thousand yuan to Xu Qianqian.
Once Xu Qianqian repaid Wang Chengcai with this money, no one would harass her or bet on their house door anymore.
"Hm? Why are there people at my sister-in-law's doorway?" As Chu Yang arrived at Xu Qianqian's home, she saw two young men guarding the entrance.
Both men were holding cigarettes in their mouths, cursing and saying, "Damn, Brother Cai had us guard the door while he enjoys himself inside... That young widow is so tender... her face is so fresh and likely to ooze water if pinched..."
The other guy laughed with a lewd smile and licked his lips, "That widow is the prettiest woman I've ever seen. Brother Cai has had his eye on her for a long time, and today he's finally got his wish. I hope that after Brother Cai's had his fun, he'll let us have a turn."
"Heh, don't worry! When has Brother Cai ever let us down? Whenever he's done with a woman, he lets the brothers have some fun too," said one of them with a sleazy laugh, looking somewhat impatient.
Having heard their conversation, Chu Yang felt her mind explode with rage, and she bellowed, "Wang Chengcai, you bastard, if you harm my sister-in-law, I swear I'll slaughter you today."
The two men guarding the entrance saw Chu Yang charging furiously towards them and immediately blocked the door, arrogantly cursing, "Where did this blind fool come from? Brother Cai is inside playing with a woman, get lost."
"You animals, courting death!" Chu Yang cursed in fury, and with a slap, sent one of them flying.
Seeing the situation turn dire, the other one tried to grab a weapon, but Chu Yang rushed up to him and punched him in the nose, causing blood to spurt and him to fall to the ground, clutching his broken nose and screaming in agony.
Chu Yang pushed open the courtyard gate and rushed to Xu Qianqian's bedroom.
Xu Qianqian, clad in only her underwear, was tied to the bed in an 'X' shape with ropes at her wrists and ankles attached to the four corners of the bed. A garment stuffed in her mouth muffled her whimpers as she struggled desperately.
Sisi was crying bitterly.
Wang Chengcai, only in his underpants, said with a ferocious expression, "Heh heh, Xu Qianqian, today I'm going to have you."
