Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 509: Never Able to See Through Him (14)

"Ah! Brother Ling, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to do it!" 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Xia Yinian was startled by the muffled groan from Gu Lingqian and hurriedly plucked out the acupuncture needle, tossing it into the disinfection box.

Looking at Gu Lingqian again, he had a fine sweat on his temples, yet he was still smiling at her: "It’s fine, I just... got scared by a mouse, it’s nothing to do with you."

Ah? Scared by a mouse?

Xia Yinian was astonished. Really? Gu Lingqian, such a big man, is afraid of mice?

But... "Master, where is the mouse?"

Qin Mufeng chuckles with a slightly evil intent, "It’s okay, I just saw it wrong, hehe, hahaha..."

"If you’re getting old, just wear reading glasses, don’t try to overdo it when it’s unnecessary." Gu Lingqian glared at him, grinding his teeth in frustration.

This bastard, he must be doing it on purpose, intentionally trying to scare Nian Nian into making a mistake, and make him suffer!

Initially, he had been quite enjoying it, but with Qin Mufeng’s scare, Xia Yinian’s needle just drove in abruptly, which was almost life-threatening.

It really... hurts so much.

He’d rather be stabbed with a knife than get a needle...

"Look at your Brother Ling, his face has gone white because of a mouse scare, aren’t you going to comfort him?" Qin Mufeng casually grabbed an apple, taking a big bite.

Indeed, having a woman changes a man, he has known Gu Lingqian for so many years, and has never seen him so disheveled.

Now, he truly owes Xia Yinian a debt of gratitude, what a fortunate life, hahaha!

Gu Lingqian didn’t bother with him, but unexpectedly, Xia Yinian started consoling him: "Brother Ling, don’t be scared, Master said he saw it wrong, there are no mice, don’t be afraid."

Although she’s also afraid, since Master said it’s fake, then there’s nothing to worry about.

Xia Yinian wiped off a bead of sweat, taking a tissue to wipe his forehead as well: "Don’t be scared, really, there’s nothing, he saw it wrong."

Gu Lingqian was thoroughly on the verge of tears; his tall, impressive image in front of the little girl had been compromised.

How could he possibly be afraid of a tiny mouse? That’s a joke! He could squash a few with just a slap.

But now, he couldn’t even find half a word to retort, is he supposed to tell her that it was because she accidentally gave him such a painful stab that his face turned white?

That would be too harsh on his girl.

"Okay, I’m not scared, continue." He buried his face in his arms, too embarrassed to show his face.

Nian Nian must think he’s a loser now, scared of a mouse, but he really isn’t afraid...

Next time, he must confront a bunch of mice in front of his girl and then eliminate them one by one! Right in front of her!

If Xia Yinian knew what he was thinking, she would be utterly dumbfounded!

A bunch of mice... God! Just kill her now!

After the last needle was placed, Xia Yinian took the medicinal liquor she had mixed, dipped a cotton swab in it, and dripped it down along the needles, letting the liquor seep into the acupuncture points on Gu Lingqian’s shoulder through the needles.

Then, she brought over an electrotherapy machine, clipped the tips of the needles with the small clamps, turned on the device, and made the needles tremble slightly.

Soon, a cool sensation spread through the acupuncture points on Gu Lingqian’s shoulders, continuously radiating outwards, and the fatigue from sitting at a computer for so long miraculously vanished significantly!

"It’s very comfortable." This time, it was true praise, really comfortable.

Qin Mufeng sniffed hard, looking puzzled.

"Nian Nian, is this medicinal liquor made according to the formula I gave you?"

Why does it smell slightly different from the one he had prepared before?

So fragrant, yet within that fragrance, there’s a refreshing sensation that touches the soul?
