Chapter 17: No Candy Today?

The first time she performed acupuncture on Jiang Ye, Tang Shuang blushed when she saw the man’s naked body in front of her.

She wanted to try her best to treat Jiang Ye as an ordinary patient, but… he was the person she liked the most. Tang Shuang’s heart was beating so fast that even her fingers were trembling.

“Xue’er, what’s wrong?” Jiang Ye asked gently. “Are you nervous? It’s okay. I trust you.”

Tang Shuang calmed down and steadily pierced the silver needle into Jiang Ye’s skin.

Although Jiang Ye had never received Chinese medicine treatment, he could feel that Tang Shuang’s movements were very skilled and stable. She was like someone who had studied Chinese medicine for many years.

After the acupuncture was over, Tang Shuang put away the silver needles and helped Jiang Ye into the bathtub.

In the bathtub was the medicinal liquid that she had carefully concocted. It could clear the meridians and nourish the Qi and blood. There were also many special herbs that could stimulate the acupoints in the eyes. Coupled with acupuncture, it could achieve the best result as soon as possible.

During the first stage of treatment, Tang Xue would come over to check from time to time and monitor Tang Shuang with a dark gaze like a poisonous snake. If Tang Shuang accidentally made physical contact with Jiang Ye, she would beat and scold Tang Shuang out of envy.

Even Auntie Wang couldn’t stand watching this anymore. She secretly muttered, “I wonder if it’s because she’s been mute for too long. Even her brain is damaged. Even if he’s cured, the credit goes to others. She even cooks and serves Jiang Ye all day. I really don’t know what she’s after.”

Hearing Auntie Wang’s words, Tang Shuang was very calm.

Others would not understand how much she loved Jiang Ye.

He’d once brought a light into her world, so she’d give anything now to fix his eyes, too.

The medicine was ready. Tang Shuang poured the medicine into a bowl and was about to send it upstairs when Tang Xue suddenly appeared and snatched the tray away. “Stop! Little b*tch, don’t even think about seducing Jiang Ye!”

Tang Xue glared at her and left.

In the room, Tang Xue looked at Jiang Ye, who was sitting in front of the window. He was so perfect that she was infatuated.

“Xue’er?” Jiang said softly.

Tang Xue walked over, picked up the bowl, and gently fed Jiang Ye the medicine.

After drinking the medicine, Tang Xue wiped the corner of Jiang Ye’s mouth with a handkerchief.

Jiang Ye waited for a while, but Tang Xue did not pass him anything. He could not help but ask, “No candy today?”

‘Candy? What candy?’ Tang Xue was stunned.

Jiang Ye smiled gently when Tang Xue did not respond. “It doesn’t matter if there isn’t any.”

Tang Xue picked up the medicine bowl, her face twisted in anger. She rushed out of the room and went to the medicine-brewing room. When she saw Tang Shuang cleaning up the Chinese medicine residue, she rushed forward and slapped Tang Shuang without thinking!

“Little b*tch, did you do it on purpose? Why didn’t you give me the candy? You must have wanted me to expose myself!” Tang Xue was so angry that she was about to go crazy. She grabbed Tang Shuang’s hair and pressed her head against the wall.

Tang Shuang did not expect Tang Xue to suddenly attack her. When she realized, her forehead was already swollen.

Anger rose in Tang Shuang’s heart. She pressed her finger on the ‘Yangxi acupoint’ behind Tang Xue’s lower arm. Tang Xue immediately felt her arm go numb. Tang Shuang took the opportunity to retreat until she was a few meters away from Tang Xue.

“What’s wrong?” The commotion in the medicine-brewing room attracted Auntie Wang’s attention. When she came in, she saw that Tang Shuang’s hair was loose and her forehead seemed to be injured. Her cheeks were still slightly swollen.

“Get out!” Tang Xue glared at Auntie Wang, who quickly closed the door.

“Little b*tch, I’m warning you. If I find out that you’re playing tricks again, do you believe that I’ll sell your grandfather’s medical center?” Tang Xue stared at Tang Shuang viciously.

Tang Shuang paled and bit her lip hard.

Tang Xue smiled in satisfaction when she saw Tang Shuang’s expression. She suddenly thought of something. “By the way, remember to pretend to treat your throat during this period. I don’t want to pretend to be mute in front of Jiang Ye for the rest of my life, understand?”

Tang Shuang frowned and took a deep breath. She did not refute Tang Xue. She took out her phone and typed a few lines—

‘Don’t touch the hospital or I won’t work with you.’

Tang Xue glared at Tang Shuang. How dare she threaten her?

However, Tang Xue thought of something and revealed a mocking and mysterious smile. She tossed her beautiful brown curly hair. “Alright, as long as you listen to me, I naturally won’t sell the medical center. However, if you make me unhappy again, you won’t be able to see your grandfather’s medical center ever again!”
