240: Chapter 240: The Dead Ashes are Flaring Up Again?

In order to perform acupuncture, Tang Xin actually dragged Wu Jie into the bedroom, half pulling and half dragging.

“What’s the rush?

Don’t you believe I could prick you to death with a single needle?”

“Come on!

Prick me to death, I won’t let you off even as a ghost!”

Wu Jie shook his head secretly, unable to provoke that crazy girl, Tang Xin.

He picked up the silver needle skillfully and used medical iodine to sterilize it.

Tang Xin waited for a while, and just as she was about to hurry him, she opened her eyes to see Wu Jie seriously sterilizing the needle.

“Bro, you look so handsome when you’re serious at work!”

“Handsome my ass!” Wu Jie scoffed coldly, “Countless shut-ins worship you as their dream goddess, many students see you as the perfect campus belle, but what are you really?

The prettier the exterior, the dirtier the heart!”

“What do you mean dirty?

I’m open and honest, just not affected, that’s all!” Tang Xin pouted her red lips and asked with a smile, “Or do you like the kind of woman who says one thing but means another?

The type who won’t say if they like or hate, leaving people completely unable to figure them out?”

Wu Jie shook off the iodine from the silver needle and bent down.

When the last needle was inserted, Wu Jie quickly went to close the doors and windows.

“You little devil, it’s just acupuncture, can’t you be more serious?”

Tang Xin closed her beautiful eyes, proudly smiling:

“What’s the matter?

Can’t you stand it?”

Wu Jie rolled his eyes with a cold voice:

“I’ve never seen anyone like you, acupuncture is a life-saving medical practice, and if you find it boring, why don’t you find yourself a boyfriend?”

No sooner had he finished speaking than Tang Xin opened her eyes and grinned:

“I want to find you, but you’re Xiao’s husband, even if it’s a sham marriage, how could I possibly steal someone’s love?”

“Don’t argue.

If Xiao didn’t have a thing for you, why would she choose to have a fake marriage with you?”

“So you better work hard!

If one day you truly can’t conquer her, then it’s not too late for me, your little sister, to take over.”

Tang Xin stated with conviction.

Wu Jie laughed heartily, “Hearing you say this, it seems you’ve had a crush on your brother for a long time, huh?”

Tang Xin smiled lightly.

“Honestly, it’s not about liking, just not disliking, and, brother, you are good enough, and you know so much, I think being this fallback guy, I shouldn’t be at a loss!”

Wu Jie furrowed his brows, his heart filled with cold laughter.

If everything Tang Xin said could be believed, then pigs might not just fly but the sun might rise from the west!

So listening is one thing, but who knows if she was just saying nice things to please him for future acupuncture sessions?

…

After joking around for a while, letting Tang Xin slowly enjoy the acupuncture, Wu Jie couldn’t stand the hunger anymore and went to eat first.

Five dishes and one soup!

To keep it warm, Tang Xin even thoughtfully covered it with a layer of cling film, quite clever indeed.

Twice-cooked pork, salt-fried meat, shredded pork with green peppers…

each dish full of color, aroma, and taste!

“Ready for the hall, good for the kitchen!”

“This little demon, she’s indeed better than Tang Xiao in every way!”

Wu Jie feasted, muttering as he ate.

He kept thinking about Tang Xiao from last night, the meal that was burnt, charred, and extremely salty.

Both women grew up in the Tang Family of Tianyuan, how could there be such a big gap between them?

It’s maddening how people can differ!

While eating happily, the door to the living room opened.

“Come in and drink some water, the weather is getting hotter and hotter!”

“It’s May already, how can it not be hot?”

Hearing this conversation, Wu Jie’s brows instantly raised.

Lin Yuan and Fang Qingya!

At this time…

there’s no way to hide!

But then again…

why hide?

“Hey!

What are you doing here?”

Lin Yuan, with two large suitcases, was surprised to see Wu Jie eating.

Fang Qingya also dragged a suitcase over and glanced at the dining room.

“Xin’er is feeling unwell, I came to give her acupuncture, and also to have dinner!

Have you two eaten?

Do you want to join me?”

Wu Jie glanced at his plate with an awkward smile, “But, it seems there’s not much food left!”

“You keep eating, we’ve already had our meal outside!”

Lin Yuan smiled sweetly, pulling her suitcase to the master bedroom.

The master bedroom, once occupied by Wu Jie, had long been turned into a studio for live-streaming and a storage room by her and Tang Xin.

Upon reaching the door to the secondary bedroom, Lin Yuan turned directly into the master bedroom.

Fang Qingya, however, stopped at the door, her eyebrows knitted, listening intently.

Strange sounds came from the secondary bedroom, presumably from Tang Xin.

But why were the sounds so peculiar?

“Come in!

What are you standing there for?” Lin Yuan urged.

“She…

what is she doing?

She couldn’t have called a man over, could she?”

“How is that possible?

Her standards are too high, how could she suddenly have a boyfriend?

I bet it’s definitely acupuncture!”

“Really?

Does acupuncture hurt that much?

It sounds like she’s in so much pain she might die!”

“Don’t worry, she won’t die!

Hurry up and come in!”

Lin Yuan pulled Fang Qingya into the master bedroom, and with a bang, the door closed.

Click!

Wu Jie’s chopsticks dropped onto the table.

“Damn!

So ashes can reignite after all!

To think they’d go out to eat together and come back together!”

“Initially crying her eyes out, demanding a clean break!

Now look…

Ah, a woman’s words, indeed untrustworthy!”

Wu Jie muttered to himself, his mind running wild with speculation.

What could they be doing behind closed doors?

Should he exchange for a few fly-sized spy drones in the system mall, sneaking them through the door crack or balcony to peek?

But then thinking about the cost in energy points, Wu Jie gave up the idea.

However…

After eating and cleaning up, they still hadn’t come out, what on earth were they doing?

With a smirk lingering on his lips, he walked leisurely to the door of the secondary bedroom.

Wu Jie listened at the door of the master bedroom and was instantly stunned.

…
