At this point, a feeble voice came from the inner room.
“W-who’s there?”
“Quinn…Quinn…”
“Mrs.Walker, it’s Peter.” Peter quickly responded.
“Oh, it’s Peter.
What happened?
I heard Quinn’s voice.”
Only then did Peter see that Quinn Walker had fainted on the ground.
He quickly carried her into the room and said, “Quinn fainted, but she’ll be okay.”
“Oh, Quinn!
What happened to you?”
In the bed lay a woman looking emaciated.
Although she couldn’t get up, her face was full of panic.
At this point, Peter had already pressed on Quinn’s acupoint.
With Peter pressing on the point, Quinn woke up.
Just waking up, Quinn tightly hugged Peter and said, “Peter!”
“It’s alright now, it’s alright!”
Peter gave a bitter smile.
When Quinn’s mother saw her daughter holding him tightly, she could not fathom what was going on.
“Your mom is watching.” Finding that Quinn was still holding onto him, Peter had to whisper to Quinn.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Quinn looked shocked.
She lifted her head to see her mother’s anxious face and noticed that she was still holding onto Peter.
Her face turned red, and she quickly let go of her hands from the shock.
Looking at her daughter standing there, not knowing what to do, and then looking at Peter, Quinn’s mother was completely confused.
“Are you two a…?” Mrs.Walker looked at Peter and then at her daughter, a smile appeared on her face.
Quinn hurriedly said, “Mom, this is Peter.”
“I know, you’ve mentioned it many times before.”
Quinn’s face turned red again.
At this point, Quinn seemed to remember the incident with the vengeful spirit.
She glanced around, and asked Peter, “Peter, where’s the ghost?”
Hearing about ghosts, Mrs.Walker asked in confusion.
“What ghost?”
At this point, Peter saw that Mrs.Walker was rather worried.
“Mom, Peter just had a fight with a ghost.”
“What?” Mrs.Walker’s face changed again.
“Peter, where’s the ghost?”
Quinn turned to Peter again.
“It’s okay.
It has left and will never appear again.”
“Really?”
Peter nodded and said, “Of course, it’s true.
But, your place here is not very auspicious.
I have houses built up on my hill, you can live in one of those.
You and your mom can move there in a while.”
Quinn was really scared before as she had never encountered such terrible things.
Upon hearing this, she was delighted and asked, “Can we really move there?”
“Of course, you can choose a house for yourself.
After all, all the houses are built for people to live in.”
“That’s great!
Peter, you’re the best!”
There was a charming glow on Quinn’s face.
Laying there, Mrs.Walker then turned to Peter and asked, “You said you scared away the ghost?”
Peter nodded and said, “Not scared away, he has reincarnated.
He will not appear again in the future.”
At this moment, Peter clearly saw Mrs.Walker looking at the ceiling with a complicated expression.
“Quinn, go heat some water.
I’ll check on your mom.”
“Okay, Peter.
Thank you so much.”
Happy, Quinn immediately went out.
Peter went to the bedside and sat down, then looked at Mrs.Walker and said, “The ghost is gone.
That’s a good thing, but you are not unhappy about it, are you?”
“What, what did you say?”
Peter smiled and said, “You have the Nine Yin body type.
The ghost wanted to devour your Yin energy.
The only possible would have been having intimate relations with you.
Only in that way would your energy be absorbed by him.
Actually, you were suppressed here by him.
Your body has no problems.
The ghost just blocked the nerves in your lower back.
I think this is partly due to him threatening you, forcing you to agree.”
“You…
how do you know?”
Mrs.Walker’s face changed again.
“Of course I would know.
Your emaciated condition is caused by overexposure to the spirit’s control.
If I didn’t help you, you would have died.
I tell you, even if you died, Quinn would have eventually fallen into the evil spirit’s hands as well.
In the end, there would only be a dead-end!”
This knowledge was obtained from his inheritance, and Peter couldn’t help but feel fearful.
If he hadn’t decided to come here today, that spirit might have hurt Quinn as well.
“Really?”
Mrs.Walker finally looked concerned.
“Whether or not it’s true, you should be able to figure it out.
Rest assured, that spirit is gone for good.
He can no longer harm your family.”
Hearing that the spirit had been eradicated, Mrs.Walker burst into tears.
She knew her own situation, how she was tormented by the spirit these past few years, and how Quinn had been used to threaten her.
She had had enough of these days.
“I’ll treat you.
You’ll be able to stand up soon.
As for this matter, as long as the two of us know about it, it will be fine.
Don’t worry, I won’t tell Quinn.”
Knowing the woman’s thoughts, Peter whispered.
“Thank you.”
Peter said, “I need to examine your body, so your clothes need to be removed.”
Mrs.Walker’s face turned red.
She slightly nodded and then closed her eyes.
‘It turns out this woman really has a Nine Yin body!’
As Peter examined her, he silently praised.
This woman’s figure was excellent, making Peter’s face turn red.
Soon, Peter took out a silver needle and began to insert it into various acupoints on her body.
This made Peter blush again.
All he could do was to reassure himself, ‘I am a doctor, I am treating a patient!’
After finally lifting the restrictions, Peter turned to Mrs.Walker and said, “You may take a bath now.
You should be able to recover in a few days.
By then you can move to my place.
This will be even better for your recovery.”
At this point, Mrs.Walker was so embarrassed that she dared not open her eyes.
Even though Peter was treating her, he had seen and touched her entire body.
This got her so worked up that she didn’t dare to look at Peter.
“Thank you.”
Peter smiled and said, “That’s okay.
I’ll call Quinn to help you.
I’ll leave now.”
After saying this, Peter called Quinn to come in.
When Quinn heard that Peter had healed her mother, tears started to flow instantly.
She knelt down in front of Peter and said, “Peter, we cannot return the massive favor you’ve done for our family.
From now on, if you’re willing, I will become your woman.
Rest assured, I don’t want anything and will not affect your marriage.
I just want to follow you.
I cannot repay you for your kindness in this life!”
“Get up.
What are you talking about?
I have to go.”
Peter was shocked by Quinn’s words, and dashed out.
