Online dating backfired? A wealthy heir begged me to continue lying to him.

If there were a way to strengthen the body and preserve vital energy at this time, there would be no need to walk on thin ice like this.

As this thought crossed her mind, Su Ruan's gaze unconsciously fell on one of the acupoints.

Then came the second, the third...

Did she actually have that formation in her mind?

So... is that acupuncture technique really effective?

Wen Yubai had already inserted the second needle.

Lu Shuangshuang's face also began to turn visibly pale.

Her breathing also began to become short and weak.

This is a sign of insufficient spirit.

What should I do? What should I do?

"Shenmen, Juque, Zusanli..."

Su Ruan unconsciously read it aloud.

It was as if something was trying to pop out of her head.

Wen Yubai, who was stabilizing himself with the second injection, was jolted awake.

This is... the Heart-Protecting Acupuncture Technique from the Nine Acupuncture Points for Resuscitation!

It is precisely this set of acupuncture techniques that complements his blood-stasis-removing and heart-protecting and foundation-strengthening methods!

It took all his willpower to steady his needlework.

Then, in as calm a voice as possible, she pleaded, "Miss Su Ruan, if you know the Heart-Protecting Needle Technique from the Nine Needles of Rejuvenation, please lend me your help!"

Lu Yanci and Su Qingqian, who were watching from the sidelines, were focused on the needle in Wen Yubai's hand and Lu Shuangshuang's face.

Although they heard Su Qian muttering something again, they didn't pay any attention.

Until he heard Wen Yubai's request.

Su Qingqian's first reaction was, "How can Su Ruan be so outstanding!" Then she was relieved that Lu Shuangshuang could be saved.

Lu Yanci was shocked.

He always knew that his sister's biggest problem was that she lacked ambition.

Previously, when Su Ruan and Wen Yubai talked about the Nine Needles for Rejuvenation, my mind went up and down with them.

He was mentally prepared when Wen Yubai said he couldn't do it, but little did he know that things would take another unexpected turn.

"Miss Su, if you really know that Nine Needles for Rejuvenation, please help my sister."

His tone was sincere, and his eyes were full of expectation.

Su Ruan was also very willing to agree.

Because I really couldn't bear to see Lu Shuangshuang end up like that.

Because of all the kindness Lu Yanci had shown her.

Because of this favor, even if her past scams are exposed in the future, she will be protected by Lu Shuangshuang and will not suffer such fierce retaliation from Lu Yanci.

But she really had no confidence at all.

In all her memories, she had never held a silver needle.

Su Ruan looked at Wen Yubai, "I'll tell you the acupoints, you can use them, okay?"

The locations of acupoints would automatically appear in her mind. She could tell Wen Yubai those acupoints and let him decide for himself whether they were suitable for use.

Wen Yubai shook his head.

"No acupuncture technique can be performed simply by knowing the acupoints; it also requires corresponding manipulation techniques."

"If you don't know the appropriate techniques and force acupuncture, the effect will be greatly reduced, and in some cases, it may even backfire!"

Su Ruan was numb.

"But I..."

But she had never held a silver needle.

But she couldn't just stand by and watch Lu Shuangshuang exhaust herself.

Everyone could see Su Ruan's predicament.

Lu Shuangshuang held on with all her might.

"Sister Ruanruan, don't be upset. It's all Shuangshuang's fate. Shuangshuang has no complaints."

Su Qingqian opened her mouth, but then closed it again.

Although she hadn't known Su Ruan for very long, she believed she understood Su Ruan quite well, and if Su Ruan could do it, she would have done it long ago.

This woman appears cold and aloof, but she is actually kind, easy-going, and warm-hearted.

Lu Yanci hadn't considered that Su Ruan wouldn't do it.

Su Ruan was able to spot the flaws in Lin Mo's program at a glance in the lab before, so what's so strange about Wen Yubai saying she might know some kind of acupuncture technique?

He had noticed before that Su Ruan's hands were particularly steady when peeling fruit, just like Wen Yubai's.

Please!

Su Ruan felt her heart start pounding.

This obvious rhythm indicates that she was so nervous that her heart rate spiked.

Her gaze fell on Lu Shuangshuang.

At this moment, Wen Yubai's needles could not be stopped.

If one cannot protect their spirit in time, Lu Shuangshuang's fate in the original story will be repeated.

It might even get worse.

After all, Lu Shuangshuang's illness occurred a full three months earlier than in the original text!

The atmosphere was tense when the door to the ward was suddenly opened.

Standing outside the door were a middle-aged man and woman, still slightly out of breath, and a kind old man with gray hair.

"Please, Miss Su, can you save Shuangshuang!"

The elegant woman looked very much like Lu Shuangshuang; she must be Lu Shuangshuang's mother, Madam Lu.

The man, whose appearance was as cold and stern as Lu Yanci's, also spoke sincerely.

"As long as Miss Su is willing to take action, we will bear whatever the consequences may be!"

The old man with the cane also spoke in a hoarse voice.

"As long as Sister Su Xuan is willing to lend a helping hand, regardless of the outcome, she will always be an honored guest of the Lu family!"

Su Ruan could clearly hear the pounding of her own heart.

Wen Yubai is about to administer the third injection.

If you want to perform the heart-protecting acupuncture technique, you should insert the needle at the same time as he inserts it.

Only then can we uphold the bottom line of patients' morale while Wen Yubai does his best to break through the old blockages.

There was no time for her to think, no time for her to hesitate.

Su Ruan's gaze fell on the silver needle pouch that Wen Yubai had taken out.

His set of silver needles had over a hundred needles of various types, enough for the two of them to use this time.

Wen Yubai caught a glimpse of Su Ruan's gaze falling on his needle case, and his eyes revealed an uncontrollable excitement.

If Su Ruan really knows how, and if Su Ruan is there to help, Lu Shuangshuang might actually be able to pull herself back from the brink of death this time!

A complex tear slid down Lu Shuangshuang's cheek.

"Sister Ruan Ruan..."

Her voice was faint and intermittent, but it still reached Su Ruan's ears clearly.

Su Ruan closed her eyes slightly.

Following the instructions in her mind and her current intuition, she opened her eyes and precisely picked out a silver needle from Wen Yubai's needle pouch.

At that moment, it seemed as if she had performed it countless times.

Her slender fingers, as if they had muscle memory, were clean and deft.

Her tense heart relaxed slightly.

The moment Wen Yubai inserted the needle, he accurately pierced Lu Shuangshuang's Shenmen acupoint.

The feeling of blockage when the needle was inserted gave her a fatal sense of familiarity.

It's as if she had administered acupuncture countless times.

Even her twisting and lifting techniques seem to have muscle memory in her hands.

She seems... to really know how!

Wen Yubai also breathed a huge sigh of relief.

He was now certain that Su Ruan truly knew it.

Her technique is very professional, and she has a high level of talent; she's the kind of person who can do it effortlessly.

Moreover, after she inserted the needles, he could clearly feel that the loss of vital energy in Lu Shuangshuang's body was gradually decreasing.

The Lu family couldn't understand it, but they believed in the successor of the divine doctor.

Su Qingqian didn't understand either, but she knew to watch quietly.

Only Lu Shuangshuang could clearly feel the difference.

The fear that had been lingering in my mind, that anxiety about my future, has finally begun to dissipate.

There might actually be a chance for her to be saved!

Because of her favorite pretty girl!
