Chapter 187: 187: She is protecting him
Soon, Zhan Lichuan went into a ‘deep sleep.’
When she heard the other person’s slow and steady breathing, Jing Qian suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to thank Zhan Lichuan for what he did just now.
As he breathed in the faint fragrant that was mixed with the smell from the sedating drugs, Zhan Lichuan had a question in mind.
The reason why he had never been sedated was that he had been born insensitive to all sorts of anesthetics. Even when he was undergoing surgery, he had to bear it by himself. It wasn’t that this fragrant wasn’t strong enough. In fact, the sedating effect of this fragrance was really powerful.
But why was it that Jing Qian wasn’t affected? How was it possible that she could do acupuncture on him without using any protective equipment?
Jing Qian habitually flipped Zhan Lichuan onto his front, and then, he could feel a long needle piercing into his head and neck.
Then, a familiar feeling appeared once again.
After the second session that Jing Qian had done for him, he realized that he had regained sensations in all of his fingers, and he was sure that the nerves had already recovered too.
However, after half an hour from it, all the nerve endings would turn numb once again, and he wouldn’t be able to move them.
He would only be able to feel them whenever Jing Qian gently pressed on the acupuncture points with her needles.
He was suspecting that…
She had deliberately blocked all of his acupuncture points.
She was trying to protect him.
Whether or not he found the person who was trying to harm him, the person would still be a threat to him before he fully recovered.
With that, a warm stream flowed through his heart.
That night was as peaceful as a pool of water.

When Yang Yue went to the Lu household, she realized that her fiancé had been arrested and her future mother-in-law, Huang Jingyi, was screaming and crying as she was trying to convince Master Lu to bail Lu Xuan out of the police station using his connections.
However, when Master Lu investigated the situation and realized the truth, he got so angry that he locked her up in the ancestral hall.
Yang Yue only realized that Lu Jinian wasn’t lying to her when she got to the Lu household. In fact, he was telling the truth. Master Lu finally managed to get Professor Hong Lu from the Lawrence Inst.i.tute to agree to treat Lu Jinian after a great deal of effect, but Lu Xuan was the one who tried to kill her while using his bodyguards.
However, not long after Hong Lu managed to escape, she made a police report. Lu Xuan’s men got arrested, the evidence being conclusive.
The truth was that Lu Xuan was an illegitimate son of Lu Yanlei. If it wasn’t because Lu Jinian’s mother had pa.s.sed at an early age, Lu Xuan and his mother, Huang Jingyi would never have been able to marry into the Lu family.
Although he only had one son, Master Lu extremely despised the existence of mistresses in a marriage. This was also why Master Lu would rather skip his only son, Lu Yanlei, and pa.s.s on his inheritance rights to Lu Jinian, who was his grandson.
Yang Yue couldn’t understand what they were thinking. Lu Jinian was already paralyzed for years and his health had been deteriorating. Why did Lu Xuan have to be in such a hurry? Why must he attack Lu Jinian during this period of time?
“Grandfather, I’m sure that there must be some misunderstandings here. Why would Ah Xuan be so stupid to use his own men to kill Professor Hong Lu?”
His son was arrested, and his wife was locked up. Lu Yanlei, who was left alone, did not have the audacity to beg for mercy from his father before this.
However, when he saw Yang Yue, who came to help, he immediately spoke up.
“Father, this really is a misunderstanding.”
