Chapter 187: Chapter 187: You’re Hardly Ever Serious
Wang Chenning, who was still angry, was stunned when Wu Ziyue planted a kiss right on him.
After she clumsily mauled his lips for a few seconds, Wang Chenning furiously pushed her away.
"What are you doing?!" he demanded angrily. "Have you lost your mind?"
Blushing, Wu Ziyue stood up from the sofa. She looked completely flustered as she said, "I... I want you to teach me combat techniques. I know my skills are nowhere near yours. I have to go on a mission soon, and I want to get stronger. I can never repay the great favor you’ve shown me, so I can only..."
"What nonsense are you spouting?!" Wang Chenning rapped her on the head. "I did help you expecting something in return, but I never imagined *this* was how you’d repay me!"
Wang Chenning almost laughed in exasperation. ’This woman’s brain really is wired differently. What a waste of a good education.’
"I don’t know what’s gotten into me either!" After Wang Chenning’s scolding, Wu Ziyue was no longer as shy as before. She looked up at him. "Maybe it’s because I’ve spent so much time with you. Not only do I not want to resist you, but I’m starting to have... other ideas. For years, I never thought about things between men and women, so I always assumed I wasn’t a normal woman. But now... I’m having those kinds of thoughts!
"And I’m terrified I’ll die a meaningless death someday."
"Sigh." Wang Chenning let out a breath and gestured for Wu Ziyue to sit. "This is perfectly normal. I have to stimulate your body’s latent functions, pushing your immune system into an optimal state of response. When that happens, your hormone levels become extremely active. It’s only natural to have thoughts about men and women. Once the treatment is complete, you’ll return to normal and be able to control these impulses."
This was a side effect Wang Chenning was never willing to disclose to his patients.
The primary reason his treatments were so effective was that they stimulated the patient’s latent potential. This, supplemented by medicine, was the key to their recovery.
And for a person’s immune system to be at its peak, their hormone secretion had to be extremely active.
The body’s immune function is only at its best when hormone production is at its peak.
This also explained why women like Luo Yuqing, Yang Xiaofei, Yang Xiaofu, and Zhao Xiao’an had let their guard down around him so much after his acupuncture treatments, some even making bold advances.
Wu Ziyue had been in good physical shape to begin with. But after her treatment, her face became even more beautiful and her figure even better than before, boosting her confidence to a new high. Combined with the recent physical contact and the jealousy she felt toward the other women, she found it difficult to control her emotions.
Wang Chenning quickly forgave her rudeness. "Don’t overthink it. You must always remember your role. Your body has recovered well, so let’s have me teach you some techniques."
With the physical contact broken and Wang Chenning having poured cold water on her ardor, Wu Ziyue quickly cooled down.
She, too, regretted her impulsive actions.
’Wang Chenning must look down on me now.’
To her relief, he didn’t seem to mind and was patiently instructing her in combat techniques. She let out a quiet sigh.
To Wu Ziyue’s surprise, most of the techniques Wang Chenning taught her were lethal—how to strike to instantly subdue an opponent, and how to deliver a killing blow.
After showing her a few special moves, Wang Chenning moved on to teaching her needle techniques.
"Acupuncture Skill can not only save lives—it can also take them," Wang Chenning explained to Wu Ziyue. He told her that certain acupoints on the human body controlled the circulation of qi. If stimulated with a needle or just the right amount of force, they could instantly render an opponent powerless or even kill them.
"And if the needle is coated in poison, not even a god could save the victim." After a brief explanation of how needles could be used to both kill and heal, Wang Chenning patted her shoulder. "When you leave, I’ll give you a few medicines I’ve developed. Some to save lives, some to take them, and others to incapacitate people. For the control drug, an ordinary person couldn’t produce the antidote even if they had the formula. I’m sure these will be very useful to you!"
"Thank you!" Wu Ziyue said, deeply moved. "I really don’t know how I can ever repay you for all your help!"
"Just don’t mention repaying me with your body. That would make me feel like a total scumbag taking advantage of someone’s vulnerability," Wang Chenning said, waving his hand dismissively. "Besides, I’m sure there will be times when I need your help. I’ve stirred up a lot of trouble lately and made a lot of people angry."
"Tell me who you want to take care of, and I’ll do it for you," Wu Ziyue said in a low voice. "I’m not busy these days. As long as it’s nothing too outrageous, I won’t refuse."
Wang Chenning thought for a moment before nodding. "Alright, then I have a task for you. I want to know how the Lin family plans to get back at me. I’ve been pretty hard on the siblings, Lin Annian and Lin Anning, so they’re definitely not going to let it slide. I don’t need you to hurt anyone, just gather some intel for me. That shouldn’t violate your operational guidelines, right?"
"Deal!" Wu Ziyue agreed without hesitation. "It’ll be the perfect opportunity to test out the moves you taught me tonight!"
Wang Chenning said no more and got ready to leave for Yang Xiaofei’s place.
As Wang Chenning headed for the door, Wu Ziyue spoke softly, "Have you ever thought about it? When you treat women this way, any one of them is bound to develop inappropriate feelings for you. The moment a woman is willing to have that kind of physical contact and bare her body to you, she’s already past the point of refusing you."
Wang Chenning laughed. "It’s just because I’m handsome, isn’t it? If I weren’t, you women wouldn’t be having these ideas, right? You’re just falling for my looks."
Wu Ziyue was left speechless.
’Wang Chenning really was handsome, and most women are visual creatures...’
After telling her to practice the techniques he had just taught, Wang Chenning departed with a casual air.
He didn’t have anyone pick him up, instead driving his own flashy sports car to Yang Xiaofei’s villa. The gates opened automatically, and he drove right up to the front door before stopping.
As he stepped out of the car, he saw Yang Xiaofei standing in the doorway of the living room to greet him, dressed in a nightgown.
"It feels like a wife waiting for her husband to come home late!" Wang Chenning teased as he walked into the living room with his medical kit. "So cozy!"
"You’re never serious, are you?" Yang Xiaofei, dressed only in her nightgown with her long hair draped over her chest, crossed her arms and shot him a cold look. "You just don’t feel right unless you’re teasing someone, do you?"
"Ooh, in a bit of a mood, are we?" Wang Chenning reached out, gently brushing her loose hair back over her shoulders. He chuckled. "What’s made our great President Yang so sullen?"
After sweeping her long hair back over her shoulders, Wang Chenning got a clear view of the curves of her body beneath the nightgown, unimpeded by a bra.
His body’s instincts naturally kicked in...
