Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law

Lu Shuangyue was one of those naturally cold and stunning beauties. In her current state, half-concealed and half-exposed, she was even more enticing than if she were fully naked. She kindled a primal urge in anyone who saw her to press her down and ravage her ruthlessly. At this moment, Lu Shuangyue was more potent than the most powerful aphrodisiac—a temptation beyond words.

Liu Ergou stood there, taking several deep breaths before he managed to compose himself. Calmer now, he slowly walked to Lu Shuangyue's side.

He tried to keep his voice even as he said, "Shuang Yue, I'm about to start your treatment. But I need to be clear: the problem is located in your heart. This means the needles will be placed around your heart, so you'll have to move your hand. You can't keep covering yourself. Understand?"

Lu Shuangyue didn't answer. Instead, her neck and cheeks blushed a deep red at a visible rate. What had been a faint blush now made her face look like a ripe apple, likely due to her extreme shyness.

Lu Shuangyue turned her head, trying to bury it in the pillow to hide her face from Liu Ergou. Seeing this, he said, "Shuang Yue, that's not going to work. You need to turn your head back and lie properly. That's the only way I can treat you. Otherwise, I can't possibly proceed."

Lu Shuangyue didn't move after he spoke, remaining perfectly still. Several long minutes passed before she, her face still as red as an apple, slowly turned her head forward and finally removed the hand covering her chest.

For Liu Ergou, Lu Shuangyue's condition wasn't overly complicated. She simply had a blockage near her heart, a congenital issue she'd had since she was in the womb. His job was to clear this blockage for her and prevent it from recurring. For anyone else, this might have been an insurmountable task, but for Liu Ergou, it was incredibly simple. After all, the Hundred Turns Nine Sounds Phoenix Needle technique his grandfather had passed down could cure a hundred ailments and was specifically designed for treating women. A minor issue like this was no challenge at all.

Liu Ergou took a deep breath, then drew a silver needle and pierced it directly into an acupoint on Lu Shuangyue's chest. The prick of the needle must have hurt, as she let out a soft, involuntary moan. But Er Gou paid it no mind.

He then withdrew another dozen silver needles. His hands a blur, he swiftly inserted them into the acupoints across her chest. Once the needles were in place, Lu Shuangyue's tense body finally relaxed. The rigidity left her, and her anxiety eased considerably.

Seeing this, Liu Ergou knew the time was right to proceed to the next step. However, just as he began, he discovered a complication. The blockage near her heart was too severe; the silver needles alone couldn't break through it. Liu Ergou hadn't yet reached the realm of Qi-guided Needling, so he couldn't channel his energy through the needles to clear the obstruction. There was only one other way: he had to use massage to supplement the acupuncture. It was the only option.

After a moment of hesitation, Liu Ergou said, "Your blockage is more troublesome than I expected. I had hoped to clear it with the needles alone, but it seems that would be futile. I need to use massage to aid the treatment. If you don't say anything, I'll take that as consent."

The words had barely left his mouth when he thought, There must be something wrong with my brain.

To his surprise, Lu Shuangyue remained silent, merely closing her eyes gently. Seeing this, Liu Ergou knew he had her consent. He no longer hesitated. Reaching out, he began to massage the area around her chest, following the techniques detailed in the massage chapter of the Hundred Turns Nine Sounds Phoenix Needle.

Instantly, a wave of heat washed over Lu Shuangyue, who had only just managed to calm down. Her cheeks began to burn again under Liu Ergou's skilled hands. Her body grew warm as an inexplicable feeling surged within her, making her let out a soft moan. Her toes curled uncontrollably, and her hands clenched the bedsheets. Within minutes, she was covered in a sheen of fragrant sweat.

Liu Ergou didn't stop, continuing his tireless massage. As he continued, Lu Shuangyue's reactions grew more intense. Her soft moans gave way to intermittent groans she could no longer suppress, and her relaxed body began to tense up once more. Lu Shuangyue felt a warm current flowing ceaselessly through her body, finally gathering in her lower abdomen.

Finally, she could hold back no longer, and a cry tore from her throat.

"Ah!"

In the next instant, Lu Shuangyue felt as if she were soaring into the clouds, a sensation of pure, ethereal bliss.

The massage continued for a full ten minutes before it finally stopped. When Liu Ergou pulled his hands away, Lu Shuangyue lay limp on the bed, unable to move a muscle. Her large, misty eyes stared blankly at the ceiling, a trickle of translucent saliva dribbling from the corner of her mouth.

Seeing her like this, Liu Ergou couldn't help but stare. She was simply too tempting. For a moment, he felt the urge to take her right then and there. But he wasn't that kind of person, and he forced himself to hold back.

Looking at the dazed Lu Shuangyue, Liu Ergou took another deep breath. He reached out and, with a deft flick of his finger, sent one of the silver needles flying from her skin and back into his waiting hand. He retrieved the other dozen needles in the same manner.

After putting the needles away, Liu Ergou struck her sharply on the chest. The blow jolted Lu Shuangyue back to her senses.

Just as she was about to speak, she felt a coppery sweetness in her throat, a sensation that something was about to come up. She didn't hesitate, immediately leaning over the side of the bed. Before she could even reach for the trash can, she couldn't hold it in any longer. She spat a mouthful of black blood onto the floor. Mixed in with the dark blood was a small, fleshy lump that she had coughed up as well.

Staring at the mess on the floor, Lu Shuangyue fell silent.
