Chapter 469: Impure Thoughts
Tan Mo sniffed and wailed, “If I could move my right arm, I wouldn’t be in such a desperate state… I could’ve just healed my left shoulder with my right hand’s healing power.”
However, since she couldn’t move her right arm, she couldn’t reach her left shoulder to heal it.
As for her left arm, she could move it. The problem was that it felt like she had dislocated her right arm. Thus, her healing power would not be able to do much to it since her power couldn’t heal bone-related injuries.
Wei Zhiqian understood what Tan Mo meant and said, “Let me try and move your bones back in place. It’ll be a little painful.”
From the moment she was born, Tan Mo had never had to endure pain.
When she heard what Wei Zhiqian had said, her face turned pale immediately.
“R-really?” Tan Mo whimpered.
Seeing how terrified she was, to the point she didn’t know what she should do, Wei Zhiqian couldn’t help but laugh a little.
“Bite me if it hurts a lot.” Wei Zhiqian reached his arm out to her mouth.
“No! I’m not going to bite your pretty hand! There’s no way I can do that!” Tan Mo pouted.
“How can you still be so sweet when you’re in pain?” Wei Zhiqian laughed. However, when she pouted, the first thing he wanted to do was taste her lips.
Yet, Wei Zhiqian was astoundingly nervous as well.
He would rather endure the pain himself than let Tan Mo suffer like that.
He took a deep breath and started to check Tan Mo’s shoulder.
“Ah! Ouch! W-wait! Uncle! It hurts! Ouch! No! Don’t touch there…” Tan Mo cried and wailed through that.
Her eyes were filled with tears from the pain.
To make matters worse, Ms. Hu happened to return at that time.
She was summoned to Professor Yao’s room to have a meeting with other lecturers.
When she returned, the first thing she heard was the lady’s moan and groan.
Ms. Hu couldn’t help but think something else was happening inside.
In the end, Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo weren’t blood-related.
Ms. Hu could not believe that Wei Zhiqian actually had the nerve to come into Tan Mo’s room in the middle of the night despite knowing the lady was living with her lecturer.
The lecturer quickly pulled her keycard out and opened the door.
“Stop!” Ms. Hu shouted and was about to hit Wei Zhiqian.
The moment she stepped into the room, she realized that Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo weren’t doing what she thought they were doing.
Tan Mo was still wearing the bathrobe. Even though it was a little messy, it still covered her tightly.
Only one of her arms was uncovered.
As for Wei Zhiqian, she was sitting by the bed on a chair.
If they weren’t at a hotel, Ms. Hu would’ve thought that Wei Zhiqian was there to visit Tan Mo at the hospital.
“W-what are you guys doing?” Ms. Hu was completely dumbfounded.
“Where were you?” Wei Zhiqian asked. When he saw Ms. Hu’s reaction, he knew that the lecturer had mistaken the situation and had to explain. “Momo fell in the bathroom. Fortunately, the soundproofing here isn’t that great, and I could hear her screams next door. Since you weren’t here, I had to ask a female employee to open the door. I’m trying to treat her arm now.”
“I-I was having a meeting with other lecturers in Professor Yao’s room.”
“Shouldn’t we take her to the hospital?” Ms. Hu suggested nervously. “It’s better we get some doctors to check up on her. What if something bad happens?”
Both Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo knew what the latter was capable of.
As long as Wei Zhiqian could solve her arm injury, she could heal all her other injuries. It would be faster than going to a hospital.
“It’s okay. There’s nothing wrong with my body. It’s just that my arms hurt,” Tan Mo explained. “I’m just wearing a bathrobe as well. I don’t want to go to the hospital like this.”
“You’re right.” Ms. Hu nodded and asked. “Is there anything I can do?”
“I just checked. it looks like her shoulder is dislocated. We’ll have to relocate it,” Wei Zhiqian explained. “I was trained at Lanshan compound from a very young age, and I know how to do it. Ms. Hu, can you help hold Momo’s down. We have to make sure she doesn’t jump in pain when I relocate it.”
Of course, there wasn’t any big problem with Tan Mo jumping in pain. The only problem was that Tan Mo’s robe might fall off because of all that movement.
Wei Zhiqian grabbed Tan Mo’s shoulder and comforted her. “Momo, don’t worry. It won’t hurt that much.”
He didn’t give Tan Mo any chance to prepare. As soon as he spoke, Wei Zhiqian took the chance to relocate the dislocated shoulder.
A loud click could be heard. Tan Mo yelled in pain.
“It’s done,” Wei Zhiqian said.
Tan Mo bit her lip and pouted, “Uncle! Why didn’t you warn me?”
She thought that Wei Zhiqian would do something like a countdown.
There was no way she expected that Wei Zhiqian would do it as soon as he told her it wouldn’t hurt.
“If I had warned you or counted down, don’t you think you’d be even more anxious? You would tense up a lot like that,” Wei Zhiqian explained with a warm smile. “Weren’t you at ease when I didn’t warn you beforehand?”
“Well… You’re right…” Tan Mo had to admit it.
Wei Zhiqian immediately laughed at her reaction.
Even though he was still pained by the injury that Tan Mo was suffering, at least he wasn’t worried anymore.
Now that Tan Mo could move her arm again, she could heal her other arm.
Ms. Hu had been watching from the side the whole time. She concluded that both Tan Mo and Wei Zhiqian weren’t any closer than what an uncle and niece should be.
“Does it still hurt?” Wei Zhiqian asked.
Tan Mo moved her right arm and exclaimed, “It doesn’t!”
“Are you sure you don’t want to go to the hospital?” Ms. Hu was still worried.
“It’s okay.” Wei Zhiqian had to lie because he couldn’t tell the lecturer about Tan Mo’s ability. “I’ll take Momo to a hospital once we get back to B City.”
“Ms. Hu, I’m really fine now,” Tan Mo a.s.sured. She forgot that she was still wearing a bathrobe and got up.
The moment she did that, her robe drop down a little and showed her pale white shoulders.
Tan Mo exclaimed in surprise and immediately sat back down.
“Hey! Just lie down and get some rest!” Ms. Hu scolded as she helped pull Tan Mo’s robe back up.
Wei Zhiqian was speechless.
‘Ms. Hu, do you really have to react like this? You do know that Momo wears much less than that during summer, right?’
“I feel completely fine now.” Tan Mo smiled warmly at Ms. Hu and whispered, “Well, my b.u.t.t still hurts, but it’s normal because I fell b.u.t.t first to the floor. I’m really okay.”
After saying that, Tan Mo secretly glanced at Wei Zhiqian.
She was worried that Wei Zhiqian had heard that.
When she turned, she noticed that Wei Zhiqian was smiling at her like how he usually would. There was no way she could tell if he’d heard her or not by just his expression.
“But I don’t think it’s a very good idea to let Momo take the plane back home like this,” Wei Zhiqian said, taking the chance to tell Ms. Hu about their plan. “Since I drove here, I’ll just drive her back to B City.”
“Yeah. That’s a good idea.” Ms. Hu nodded and immediately notified Professor Yao.
