Chapter 2032 — Treating a Cold

"Oh... all right, then." Han Jingyi nodded obediently and sat down on the sofa as told, though she still asked with some worry, "Brother Wei Zhao, does acupuncture hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt!" As he spoke, Wei Zhao took out the silver needles and sterilized them with his true qi, then inserted them into Han Jingyi's body with seeming casualness—though in truth his precision could not have been any higher.
"There, don't move. It'll be done in a moment!" After inserting the needles, Wei Zhao took hold of the tail ends of the silver needles one by one and channeled in a little true qi...
"So hot!" A fine sheen of sweat broke out on Han Jingyi's delicate forehead, and she felt as though her whole body were drenched. "I seem to have let out a lot of water!"
"Pff..." Wei Zhao's hand, gripping the silver needles, gave a slight tremor. Let out a lot of water? The way Han Jingyi put it really was ambiguous. If not for the utter innocence filling her big, liquid eyes, Wei Zhao would almost have thought she was **him!
Still, hearing those words, Wei Zhao's body betrayed him shamefully and stirred a little. He coughed awkwardly and hastily sat down on the sofa beside her. "There, just wait a moment and it'll be fine."
"Oh... okay!" Han Jingyi seemed not to notice the physiological change in Wei Zhao's body, and nodded with complete trust in him.
After a while, once his heartbeat had settled, Wei Zhao removed the silver needles. He had not expected that a girl of Han Jingyi's type, when she **ed, could actually be so devastating. Was being cute all the rage these days?
"All right, go take a shower and wash the sweat off," Wei Zhao said. "I'll wait for you here!"
"Huh? Take a shower now?" Han Jingyi was slightly startled. "Then you... wait here for me—that's really too rude of me. How about you watch some TV?"
"Mm. What are you two having for dinner tonight?" Wei Zhao asked.
"Instant noodles or takeout," Han Jingyi said. "Why do you ask?"
"Nothing much. How about this: you go shower first, and I'll run back and see about getting some food from home, so we can eat together," Wei Zhao said.
"That works too. Sorry to trouble you, Brother Wei Zhao!" Han Jingyi said.
Wei Zhao nodded, left Han Jingyi's villa, and returned to his own.
The young lady and Xiaoshu had already finished eating and were watching TV in the living room. Seeing Wei Zhao come back, Gu Mengyao asked, "Wei Zhao, is everything settled over there? I saved you some food—it's in the kitchen. It shouldn't be cold yet; just heat it up and you can eat!"
"Haven't talked yet. Han Jingyi caught a cold, and I just cured it," Wei Zhao said. "She's taking a shower now. I came back to get some food to take over so we can eat together!"
"Oh? Bumper Sticker, don't tell me you gave Han Jingyi a feel too? Like you did with Wang Xinyan that day?" Shen Yushu suddenly asked.
"Sweat!" Wei Zhao held up the silver needles in his hand. "This time I have the needles. No need to take off clothes, and no need to touch."
"Oh, so last time you were deliberately feeling up Wang Xinyan?" Shen Yushu asked.
"Last time I didn't bring the needles," Wei Zhao said.
