Chapter 7: I Will Treat You If You Pay Me
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mu Sheng sat on the couch and turned on the air conditioning before she waved Li Hanchen over. “Come over. Take off your s.h.i.+rt and sit down.”
Li Hanchen glanced at Mu Sheng. She was dressed in a white woolen sweater which softened her usual coldness while she concentrated on preparing the silver needles.
Li Hanchen stood up and sat in front of Mu Sheng like she asked.
Since the woman was behaving strangely, Li Hanchen wanted to figure out what she was up to.
!!
After Mu Sheng finished disinfecting the needles, she raised her head to see Li Hanchen had already taken off his s.h.i.+rt.
Mu Sheng was stunned by Li Hanchen’s figure after seeing it up close.
Despite his terminal illness, he had a good figure, and his abdominal muscles could be vaguely seen. Mu Sheng’s eyes glinted automatically.
“What else do I need to do?” Li Hanchen’s deep voice rang.
“Just don’t move.” Mu Sheng collected her thoughts before she started to ma.s.sage Li Hanchen.
Although Mu Sheng’s hands were cold, Li Hanchen’s body was even chillier and felt like a dark ice cellar as coldness kept emanating from him.
Mu Sheng’s fingertips felt cold just by ma.s.saging him. She had seen plenty of patients before, but she was honestly impressed by Li Hanchen’s level of tolerance.
Mu Sheng ma.s.saged Li Hanchen carefully. Li Hanchen could see her collar bone when he looked down. Since they were very close to each other, he could even smell a faint scent coming from Mu Sheng.
“Okay. I’m going to apply the needles, so bear with it.” After some time, Mu Sheng stopped ma.s.saging him and picked up a needle. The fine pointy needle glinted coldly under the light.
Li Hanchen adjusted his posture and nodded. “Okay.”
Mu Sheng held a needle and pierced it right into Li Hanchen’s body. “It will hurt a little at first.”
The moment the needle entered Li Hanchen’s body, it set a fire in his icy body. It felt like an intense fire ripping through him.
Li Hanchen frowned. His right hand felt for the b.u.t.ton on the couch.
Mu Sheng kept applying needles on Li Hanchen one after another. The fires combined to form a huge blaze, and his icy body started to feel warm.
Li Hanchen was half a doctor after being ill for so long, so he knew his condition well. He was clearly in a lot less pain now.
He glanced at Mu Sheng as she performed acupuncture on him with her eyes lowered and pulled his hand away from the b.u.t.ton.
Time pa.s.sed bit by bit until it turned dark outside. Mu Sheng finally prepared to remove the needles. “Does it feel better?”
Li Hanchen nodded. “Uh huh.” He felt much better in comparison to last night. It had been a long time since he last felt so relaxed and was not racked with pain.
“Good.” Mu Sheng removed the needles and sat on the couch. “Now, can we discuss the terms?”
Li Hanchen raised his brow slightly before he looked at Mu Sheng’s bright eyes. “Go on.”
“How much money does the Li family give you monthly?”
Even though Li Hanchen did not know why Mu Sheng asked, he replied candidly, “$20,000.”
“I will treat you for $10,000 a month. Not a bad deal, right?” Although $10,000 was a pathetic amount of cash for Mu Sheng who used to have billions, it could not be helped since she had no money.
If she was careful with the money, $10,000 was enough for her to survive.
“Can my illness be cured?” asked Li Hanchen as he slowly b.u.t.toned his s.h.i.+rt. His flawless hand contrasted his black s.h.i.+rt and made him give off a manly aura.
“There isn’t anything that I can’t treat.”
Mu Sheng looked straight into Li Hanchen’s eyes and smiled with her cool eyes gleaming brightly and confidence br.i.m.m.i.n.g from her core.
