Chapter 240 - Please Prick Me

Gu Jiamei looked at the needle and felt that she was deeply opposed to it. However, she could not bear the pain in her stomach and ultimately chose to compromise.

“Is it… really not painful?” Gu Jiamei grabbed her husband’s hand tightly, her face filled with anxiety.

“Don’t worry, it doesn’t hurt. If you’re afraid, you can lean on my shoulder. I’ll help you block it. If you don’t look, then you won’t be afraid.” Fan Weiming reached out to hold his wife’s head and pressed her face on his shoulder, not letting her look down.

Su Yayan looked at them as if they were facing a formidable enemy. She felt like laughing.

The acupuncture point was located three inches above the ankle and at the back of the tibia.

Ordinary people would need to use four fingers to measure their acupuncture points, but Su Yayan could tell at a glance. The moment Gu Jiamei turned her head, she inserted the needle.

After a few seconds of intense stimulation, Gu Jiamei’s tense nerves slowly relaxed.

“How is it? Do you still feel uncomfortable?”

Gu Jiamei subconsciously touched her abdomen. “It seems like… it doesn’t hurt that much anymore.”

Su Yayan performed two more needles. After a few minutes, Gu Jiamei’s face was no longer as pale as before.

“Does it still hurt?”

“It doesn’t hurt anymore.” Gu Jiamei looked at Su Yayan eagerly.

Su Yayan had performed acupuncture on two people before this. One was Ning Qirui, and the other was Fan Weiming. Both of them needed to stretch the trench and undergo a few treatments before the effects would be apparent. Without the testing equipment, they would not be able to evaluate any changes in the short term.

Gu Jiamei, who had only required one prick to be cured completely, was considered to have borrowed a bit of skill. However, it was enough to surprise those who had doubted her in the beginning.

Su Yayan touched her nose and smiled. “It’s only temporary. You still have to eat medicinal cuisine. I’ll pass the prescription to the kitchen later. Both of you have to eat it. Eat it for a few days to see how it will work. I’ll adjust the prescription and dosage appropriately with the acupuncture later. I have a lot of things to do, so you guys have to be careful and eat on time.”

“Okay, okay. We will definitely follow doctor’s orders and cooperate with you.” Gu Jiamei’s gaze on Su Yayan had entirely changed. She had a feeling that this person before her might really be a turning point for the couple.

After sending the two of them off, Su Yayan heaved a sigh of relief and checked the surveillance footage.

After Cheng Junhao brought the two of them out to order, he returned and looked at Su Yayan with a glimmer in his eyes.

Su Yayan was surprised to see him. “Uncle, why are you back? Don’t you need to greet Uncle Fan and the rest?”

“It’s okay, there’s no need to. They’re too busy feeding the other patients in our group to care about me.”

Su Yayan was speechless. She even reported the results of the treatment. She had a feeling that more and more children would come looking for her in the future. Was she going to be forced to give up her child?

Cheng Junhao paused and said hesitantly, “Yanyan, does it really not hurt to insert this needle?”

Su Yayan eyed him suspiciously. “Why are you asking this?”

“I just want to ask, my stomach hasn’t been feeling well recently. Will this help?”

Su Yayan was speechless.

Cheng Junhao saw that she was silent and probed further, “… Can you prick me?”

“… Sure.”

“Then…”

“I’ll do it right away.”

Wasn’t it just a stomachache? She would prick anyone who asked for it!
