306 Chapter 306. Holding His Hand
However, before Zhuang Xian could return to her seat, Mo Qian seemed unable to bear the intense pain in his lower limbs as he began to cry out.
With his remaining rationality, he turned his head away, trying to avoid Zhuang Xian’s worried gaze and cover up the ugly look on his face.
The man’s face was covered in sweat, and his veins were popping out from his neck and side. Zhuang Xian could see that Mo Qian’s skin was naturally fair because he had not been exposed to the sun and exercise for many years. However, at this moment, his skin was flushed red from his struggle.
Zhuang Xian was a little worried that Mo Qian would be unable to hold on, so she hurriedly called out, “Mo Xi! Mo Xi, come here!”
Mo Xi responded and rushed over from the corner. When he saw his young master’s leg covered with silver needles on the bed, he was shocked. His mouth opened slightly, and he looked at Zhuang Xian with anxiety and doubt.
Zhuang Xian’s voice was hoarse as she anxiously ordered, “You stand there and hold Mo Qian down with your hands. Don’t let him move his body! After the needles entered his body, his acupuncture points and meridians would be stimulated. He won’t be able to take it!”
Mo Xi did not waste any time and quickly walked opposite Zhuang Xian to the other side of the bed. When he saw Mo Qian’s pained and embarrassed expression, Mo Xi gritted his teeth and reached out to hold Mo Qian’s already trembling shoulder!
Zhuang Xian stood up and looked at Mo Qian’s slightly trembling body. She gulped and said in a gentle voice, “Mo Qian! all you have to do now is to hold on for another 10 minutes! You can do it, right? I believe you’re mentally prepared. Your determination and belief to stand up must not be less than mine. You must hold on!”
As Zhuang Xian spoke, her eyes were filled with worry as she looked at Mo Qian’s stubborn side profile. After a few seconds, Mo Qian slowly turned his head around.
His forehead was completely wet with sweat. Zhuang Xian smiled at him, took out her handkerchief, and wiped his sweat for him. She continued to say encouraging words, “I know it hurts, and you’ve worked hard! However, clearing your blocked meridians and the blood Qi in your acupoints are the most important processes! After the first round of acupuncture, you can try to stand up slowly!”
Mo Qian had spent almost all his energy and rationality controlling himself and resisting the pain. However, the human body has the perfect function of ‘seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. This kind of subconscious trembling and escape was not under the subjective control of the human body.
He looked at Zhuang Xian with tired and pained eyes. He tried to smile, but he failed.
In the next second, the medicine packet pressed against his nose slightly eased his pain. However, it was enough to let Mo Qian relax the tense nerves in his brain.
Zhuang Xian grabbed the medicine bag and adjusted it under Mo Qian’s nose, which was stuck to the bedsheet. She looked at Mo Qian’s slightly relaxed expression and smiled gently. She was beautiful and dazzling, but Mo Qian did not see it because the next wave of pain was starting to engulf him again.
Mo Xi looked at Mo Qian with a face full of worry. He licked his dry lips and turned to Zhuang Xian, asking in a deep voice, “Miss Zhuang! Is it normal for our young master to have such a reaction? Is this within your expectations? Why did he have such a big reaction? Shall we call it a day? I think the young master can’t take it anymore. If he continues like this, I’m afraid he’ll faint from dehydration!”
Zhuang Xian’s eyes never left Mo Qian’s face; naturally, she did not miss Mo Xi’s request.
“Wait a little longer! He had already endured it for so long! Are you going to let all his previous efforts go to waste? We have to believe in him. He can only rely on himself to slip through this stage!” As Zhuang Xian spoke, her expressive and beautiful eyes were filled with determination and trust.
She seemed to have no reason not to trust Mo Qian and had always believed that he would persist.
Mo Xi took two deep breaths. He was very helpless but had no choice but to continue watching his young master being tortured like this.
Zhuang Xian could feel Mo Qian’s entire body tense up in pain. As her eyes slowly looked down, she saw Mo Qian’s right hand gripping his bathrobe. The veins on his right hand were exposed, and his fingertips had already started to turn slightly white!
As if she was possessed, Zhuang Xian suddenly reached out and pried open Mo Qian’s tightly clenched palm. She stuffed her warm hand into Mo Qian’s big hand and held him back with great force.
