Chapter 123: Chapter 123: This is a Massage, Not a Touch!

In the compartment, Shangguan Min Yue slowly rose to her feet.

Walking behind the screen, she reached out to undo the buttons at her chest.

Suddenly, her clothes slid off her fragrant shoulders.

"Mr. Lin, I’m ready!"

Taking a deep breath, Shangguan Min Yue then spoke.

Upon receiving her consent, Lin Fan proceeded to walk behind the screen.

At that moment, Shangguan Min Yue was standing there, upright.

Although her true face under the bamboo hat was not visible.

The curvaceous figure was now fully exposed.

Her hands covered her chest, hiding the rising and overlapping mountains.

But the deep, crisscrossing ravines led to boundless imagination.

In addition, years of cultivation had sculpted a slender waist with not an ounce of extra fat.

The palm-width flat abdomen seemed to extend into abdominal muscles below.

"This is the rare poison from the Western Regions, Night Love!"

Lin Fan bent down to inspect the red rash above the mountains.

Identifying the lesion, he could now confirm the source of the toxin.

"Night Love... what a beautiful name!"

Upon hearing of a poison with such a name for the first time, Shangguan Min Yue couldn’t help but praise it.

"Do you know what Night Love is? It’s when the poison acts up during the dead of night, causing unbearable itchiness. Scratching is futile, and fortunately, your strength is not weak, protecting your heart meridian. If it were an ordinary person, they would likely be truly afflicted with the poison after half a month, the infected area would fester beyond salvation, and it would take a full three months to invade the internal organs. By then, it would be a night after night longing for death, hence the name Night Love spread far and wide."

Lin Fan rubbed his nose.

He already understood the lesion before him.

Thus, what followed, the detoxification, was quite straightforward.

"Can you treat me, sir?"

Lin Fan’s description of the symptoms matched her own experience.

Shangguan Min Yue began to get excited again.

"The attack you suffered seems not too severe, and not much toxin has entered your body. It can be treated, but the method is somewhat troublesome!"

Lin Fan frowned as he spoke.

"What method?"

Shangguan Min Yue asked anxiously.

"It requires the insertion of silver needles into acupoints, modifying the meridians, followed by a massage technique to expel the toxins. After taking herbal medicine for three days, you should fully recover. However, this massage technique... is a bit inconvenient!"

Lin Fan pursed his lips.

After all, a physician is as compassionate as a parent.

But the person in question was an unmarried young lady.

And the location was so private.

After such a massage, it was bound to be complicated.

"As long as you can cure it, just go ahead and start. There’s nobody else in the room but you and me, please proceed, Mr. Lin."

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Min Yue readily agreed.

She then let go of her hands and lay down on the bedside.

"Is this true modesty, or retaliatory spending?"

Seeing the straightforward Shangguan Min, Lin Fan couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

This girl truly possessed a unique character.

She wouldn’t show her face, but she was casual about everything else.

However, since she had already agreed to it.

As a physician, he certainly couldn’t back down now.

Picking up the silver needles, he walked to the bedside and immediately began treatment.

With seven silver needles sealing the acupoints, Shangguan Min Yue only felt a slight chill.

Then Lin Fan’s hands formed palms, gradually squeezing and massaging toward the center.

As droplets of dark red blood were expelled from the body.

The air was suddenly filled with a stench.

"Alright, the toxin of Night Love has been largely cleared, and the rest can be handled by your body!"

After half an hour of pressing, Lin Fan finally stood up.

The red rash on the chest had completely vanished.

"Mr. Lin, you’ve worked hard."

Sitting up, Shangguan Min Yue looked at her chest in the mirror, which had returned to its original fairness.

Everything was as Lin Fan had said, and she felt much more relaxed.

"What’s hard about it? A physician is as compassionate as a parent, after all."

Lin Fan turned and walked out from behind the screen, returning to the table.

He downed an entire pot of tea in one go.

"Mr. Lin, this is my diagnosis fee of three million. Please accept it."

Having redressed, Shangguan Min Yue also came out.

She pulled a card out of her pocket and placed it on the table.

"I’m not the Divine Doctor, so I don’t charge as much. I’ll take half, go back and prepare the medicine according to the prescription, and you should recover in three days."

Lin Fan felt somewhat ashamed to earn the money this way.

Though it was for treatment, after all, she was a pure young woman.

He couldn’t very well take too much money for a half day’s Tuina massage.

So, he bowed his head and swiftly wrote out a prescription with a brush.

"The money is yours by right. Just take it. However, you also have to answer a question for me."

She placed her bank card squarely on the table.

But Shangguan Min Yue didn’t sit down, instead she stood opposite Lin Fan.

"What question? If I know it, I’ll tell you."

Lin Fan looked up, puzzled.

At this moment, even though her face was obscured by the veil, he couldn’t see it clearly.

But the cold intent to kill jolted his spirit.

"Just now, did it feel good when you touched me?"

Shangguan Min Yue’s voice suddenly turned icy.

"That was Tuina, not just touching, and it was all to treat you. You don’t think I was behaving inappropriately, do you?"

Realizing something was wrong, Lin Fan hurriedly explained.

"Whether it’s for treatment or acting inappropriately, the conclusion is that you indeed touched where you shouldn’t have. I’ve paid the diagnosis fee, but I have to settle this matter of you taking liberties with me for my future husband."

Shangguan Min Yue’s gaze was intense.

The murderous intent she exuded seemed to drop the temperature in the room by several degrees.

Such a presence was indeed worthy of someone with the extraordinary Three Mystical Meridians.

"I saved your life, and now you want to kill me. Isn’t that a bit unreasonable?"

Lin Fan looked at Shangguan Min Yue helplessly.

No wonder she was so agreeable just now.

Perhaps she had prepared to silence him the moment he stepped behind the screen.

"My logic is simple. If you die, then I have done right by my future husband. Don’t worry, after you die, the Shangguan Family will definitely give you a grand funeral, and I’ll ensure the safety of your family."

Before her words finished, Shangguan Min Yue’s right hand had already struck out with a palm.

Directly aiming for Lin Fan’s crown.

This strike, with roaring vigor, was swift as gale winds.

"Snap!"

She was fast, but Lin Fan was faster.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Fan’s hand had already grasped her slender wrist.

"What’s the use of a grand funeral? If touching you means I have to die, I wouldn’t have saved you kindly. With such unreasonable behavior, was your teacher called Master Miejue by any chance?"

Lin Fan’s face was stern—he could tell this woman had truly harbored intent to kill just now.

"How do you know the name of my honored teacher!"

Her strike missing its mark, Shangguan Min Yue immediately flipped her palm.

Breaking free from Lin Fan’s hold, she delivered a sweeping roundhouse kick.

"No wonder you talk of killing so lightly. With a name like your teacher’s, she couldn’t have taught you anything good."

Lin Fan stepped back slightly, dodging the kick.

"How dare you insult my mentor. I’ll slaughter you!"

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Min Yue was further enraged.

She struck with both palms; the force this time was much stronger than before.

"Bang!"

Lin Fan’s palm collided with Shangguan Min Yue’s.

A boom resounded through the air.

"You’re also a Martial Cultivator!"

Shangguan Min Yue, who stepped back three paces, looked at Lin Fan in astonishment.

With just that palm strike, he seemed no less powerful than she was.

"Did you think you were the only one with the Three Mystical Meridians? Laozi is endowed with the Heaven’s Ultimate Meridians; compared to me, you’re trash!"

Lin Fan scoffed coldly.

The Three Mystical Meridians were indeed formidable.

But before the Heaven’s Ultimate Meridians, they were mere trifles.
