Facing Su Wanran's panic, Lu Ming calmly said, "I need to undress you first before I can administer the needles. Don't worry, I won't touch you inappropriately. This is just a medical procedure. I am the doctor, and you are the patient. That's all there is to it. Don't overthink it."
Don't overthink it?
How was that possible!
Su Wanran had never felt so speechless in her life.
If she had known she would be completely undressed and seen by him, she would never have drunk those ten bottles of poison!
Previously, Lu Ming had only taken liberties with her or peeked at her. Now, he was going to strip her bare and see everything. How would Su Wanran ever get married after this?
Her purity, her chastity, all gone.
Thinking about it, Su Wanran shed tears of sorrow.
Sadness, grief, shame, despair.
Seeing this, Lu Ming sighed. He turned away and picked up a piece of cloth from a nearby table, covering his eyes.
What was this now?
Su Wanran asked, "What are you doing?"
Lu Ming replied, "Aren't you feeling ashamed? Now that I've covered my eyes, I won't look at you. Won't that make you feel a little better?"
Su Wanran was speechless. "But you're here to detoxify me, to save my life! If you cover your eyes, how can you administer the needles?"
So, she understood the logic.
Lu Ming smiled slightly and said calmly, "I've already observed your body sufficiently. All your acupoints are now in my mind, and I can accurately identify them even without looking."
So capable?
It was as if he were a computer.
Next, Lu Ming helped Su Wanran remove her upper clothing. Even though Lu Ming had his eyes covered, Su Wanran still felt extremely ashamed. After all, lying naked in front of a man, which woman could endure that?
She asked with a tremble, "Are—are you really not looking?"
Lu Ming picked up a silver needle as he spoke, "Stop asking such foolish questions. I need to concentrate on administering the needles now. Be quiet."
Su Wanran took a deep breath and said no more.
Lu Ming placed his hand on Su Wanran's lower abdomen and slowly moved it upward, searching for acupoints.
His hand drew closer and closer...
"Stop! Don't go any higher! Be careful, don't touch me inappropriately!" Su Wanran shouted anxiously, terrified of Lu Ming touching her in the wrong places.
Lu Ming ignored her and continued to search for acupoints on his own.
Found it!
Lu Ming immediately administered the needle. Steady, precise, and fierce, the needle sank firmly into the acupoint.
Then came the second needle, the third, the fourth...
With each needle inserted, Su Wanran felt a lot more comfortable. The sensation of ants gnawing at her body gradually dissipated.
At this moment.
Lu Ming suddenly warned her, "This next needle will force out the toxins from your body. You'll spit up a lot of blood. Be prepared."
Spit blood?
Before Su Wanran could react, Lu Ming drove the needle in.
Su Wanran then felt a tightening in her throat and coughed up a large mouthful of black blood.
It was evident that the blood was filled with poisons.
Lu Ming's hands did not stop. He began to administer needles to Su Wanran's head, which required even greater precision. Even Lu Ming felt a little nervous.
Fortunately, the medical skills of the Dragon Warlord were not to be trifled with.
After a few minutes, all the needles on her head were in place. Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Now we need to wait patiently for three minutes for the silver needles to extract the venom from your body."
Thus, the man and woman waited in silence.
At this moment.
Su Wanran's heartbeat gradually calmed. She gently turned her head and looked at Lu Ming standing beside her. Suddenly, Lu Ming's figure seemed so majestic and tall.
Thinking about it carefully, Lu Ming didn't seem as incompetent as Jiang Mengxin had described.
At the airport, it was Lu Ming who discovered the bomb. In the villa on the mountainside, it was Lu Ming who found the surveillance equipment. At the funeral, it was Lu Ming who shattered Su Fei'ang's "young master" dream.
And now, it was Lu Ming helping Su Wanran detoxify.
Everyone said Lu Ming was a useless grave keeper, a son-in-law who lived off his wife.
But upon reflection.
Lu Ming was not only courageous but also meticulous and highly skilled, possessing astonishing medical abilities. With such capabilities, he could walk anywhere with his head held high.
What he lacked was simply background and connections.
In reality, Su Wanran was mistaken. Lu Ming lacked nothing in terms of background and connections!
Would the Dragon Warlord lack people?
As she watched, Su Wanran's heart began to race again. This time, it wasn't due to the venom, but because of... affection.
She seemed to be developing a little liking for Lu Ming.
Thinking that she was currently lying naked in front of him, her cheeks flushed.
On another note.
Faced with a beauty like Su Wanran, Lu Ming could remain composed and avoid improper sights. Throughout the entire needling process, he did not touch her inappropriately.
What incredible self-control!
Remaining unperturbed in the face of temptation, such a man was truly reliable.
For some reason.
Su Wanran inwardly asked herself: Mengxin, how could you constantly disdain such an excellent man? Lu Ming clearly possessed so many skills and such outstanding character, yet you were still not satisfied? Do you only like wealthy and powerful men?
Conversely, Su Wanran held Lu Ming in higher regard.
...
Outside the house.
Su Jianxiong glanced at his watch and said, "Fifteen minutes have passed, and there's no movement from inside the house. Could Su Wanran be dead? Shall we go in and take a look?"
Han Yun replied, "Ten types of venom are not that easy to expel. Give Lu Ming more time, lest he blames us later for interfering with his work."
Su Jianxiong snorted, "That Lu Ming, with his shifty eyes and lecherous look, is clearly not a good person. I suspect Su Wanran is already dead, and Lu Ming is probably doing something disgusting to the corpse!"
Han Yun chuckled, "That's none of our business."
They waited patiently.
Sun Yao simply sat on the ground, looking at the door of the house, and muttered to himself, "In over ten years, this is the first person foolish enough to drink my Ten Great Poisons. I'm actually reluctant to see this girl die. If she dies, I'm afraid I'll never find anyone as foolish as her again."
Whether it was Su Jianxiong, Han Yun, or Sun Yao, none of them had considered that Su Wanran could survive.
In their eyes, Lu Ming was just a loud-mouthed, bragging piece of trash.
The talk of detoxifying Su Wanran and saving her life was just casual boasting.
The foolish Su Wanran actually believed him.
Heh, foolish, so foolish!
Just as they were waiting to witness a spectacle and prepare to collect Su Wanran's body, something unexpected happened.
With a creak, the door of the house opened.
A woman elegantly walked out. It was Su Wanran, who else could it be?
Su Wanran was alive!!!
