Chapter 28: The Maid’s Surprise for Shen Anyu!:
Under everyone’s stunned gaze, Shen Anyu casually flicked his fingers, sending one needle after another formed from inner force into the acupuncture points on Ruan Lingshan’s mother, Gao Guixiang. As her blood circulated, the energy penetrated deep into the affected organs.
In just an instant, white steam began to rise from the top of Gao Guixiang’s head. Her dry, pale skin visibly filled out and turned rosy.
What others couldn’t see was that the inner force within her body resonated in harmony, producing a mysterious rhythm.
Creation Divine Needle!
A technique capable of stealing the fortune of heaven and earth, capable of reactivating the body’s life force, restoring flesh to bones, and reviving the seemingly dead!
Though the effects weren’t quite that exaggerated, it was still a top-tier acupuncture secret art—with excellent results.
Under Shen Anyu’s needle treatment, in just ten minutes, Gao Guixiang felt all the years of pain melt away. Her entire body felt like it was soaking in a hot spring—warm and comfortable.
She fell asleep peacefully.
But her breathing was no longer weak; it gradually became strong and steady.
Shen Anyu didn’t even look winded. Calm and composed, he spoke with a gentle tone, “It’s done. Have her take some foundation-reinforcing medicine, and before long, she’ll be moving freely again, fully recovered.”
Director Liu and the others were completely shocked. The way they looked at Shen Anyu was filled with utter respect. They sincerely said:
“Young Master Shen, your technique is nothing short of divine. It far exceeds anything we could have imagined!”
“That’s right, Young Master Shen. A martial Grandmaster who can condense inner force into needles, with such mystical medical skill—we mere mortals can only look up to you.”
“I thought your earlier words were boastful, but now I see your realm is beyond our comprehension. You’re like an immortal descended to the mortal world!”
“…”
If before, their respect came from Shen Anyu’s status and power, now it came purely from awe at his actual ability.
These people were all top-tier medical experts, renowned domestically and abroad.
But before Shen Anyu’s Extraordinary Medical Skills and martial Grandmaster prowess, all they could do was bow in reverence.
Yet Shen Anyu paid them no mind. Instead, his gaze was gentle and warm as he looked at Ruan Lingshan.
“Lingshan, I told you I’d save your mother. So don’t cry anymore, okay?”
Ruan Lingshan stared at him, entranced. She nodded hard.
“Mhm!”
[Ding! Detected that Destiny Female Lead Ruan Lingshan’s affection +10. Plundering +Destiny Points!]
[Ding! Detected that Destiny Female Lead Ruan Lingshan’s total affection has reached 90. Plundering +Destiny Points!]
[Ding! Chosen One Xia Liu’s emotional arc has violently fluctuated. Plundering +Destiny Points!]
Shen Anyu raised an eyebrow, joy flickering in his heart.
Ruan Lingshan’s affection level was rising way too fast.
He had expected maybe an increase of three to five points—but it had skyrocketed to ninety!
The higher the affection, the harder it became to increase.
Going from seventy to eighty was harder than from zero to sixty.
Ninety? That was the level of life-and-death dependence.
Meaning if Shen Anyu were to fall off a cliff, Ruan Lingshan wouldn’t hesitate to jump after him.
What Shen Anyu didn’t realize was that Ruan Lingshan, a girl so pure and kind, wouldn’t fall for someone easily—but once she did, she would give everything.
In this moment, Shen Anyu had become her knight in shining armor—descending from the clouds, saving her and her mother, and rescuing her entire world.
Afterward, Shen Anyu wrote a prescription of foundation-reinforcing medicine for Gao Guixiang and instructed Director Liu and the others to take good care of her.
Director Liu and the others beat their chests in assurance.
In truth, even without Shen Anyu’s reminder, how could they dare slack off? With his command, they’d be twice as cautious.
Once everything was arranged, Shen Anyu took Ruan Lingshan back to the riverside mansion.
“Master, I’m going to change back into the maid outfit now.”
Ruan Lingshan blushed as she glanced at Shen Anyu and spoke sweetly.
“Alright, go ahead.”
Shen Anyu leisurely lay back and picked up his phone.
He replied to messages from Lin Keqing, Qin Ningbing, Su Hongmian, handled some matters related to Xia Liu, and continued tracking down other Chosen Ones.
Not long after, Ruan Lingshan reappeared—once again in her maid outfit.
But this time, she was holding a basin of warm water.
Shen Anyu looked at her in surprise and asked, “Lingshan, what are you doing?”
Ruan Lingshan placed the basin at his feet. Her beautiful eyes gazed at him tenderly as she spoke softly, “Master, I don’t really know what to do… but I thought I’d wash your feet to help you relax.”
Seeing that Shen Anyu was about to say something, she assumed he was about to refuse and quickly gathered her courage.
“Master, I want to repay you!”
With those words, she gently removed his shoes and socks, dipped his feet into the warm water, and began washing them seriously.
Shen Anyu watched, feeling a mix of amusement and helplessness.
He had thought she might offer herself to him—yet she was just giving him a foot bath?
“Master, does it feel good?”
The petite maid looked up with her innocent, baby-faced expression. Her clear eyes were like a little deer in the forest as she asked earnestly.
“Mhm, it feels good.”
As Ruan Lingshan’s small hands massaged his feet, Shen Anyu felt a tingling warmth in his heart.
He had to admit—it was quite pleasant.
Ding ling ling!
Just then, his phone rang urgently.
Shen Anyu frowned slightly and answered.
He knew—if it weren’t important, no one would dare disturb him at this time.
“Young Master, a powerful cultivator has appeared beside Miss Su Hongmian. Peak Innate Realm!”
Shen Anyu narrowed his eyes and replied coldly, “Interesting… Don’t act rashly. I’ll go take a look myself…”
