Chapter 40: Chapter 40 The Stolen First Kiss
Xiao Yi laughed heartily. He thought to himself, with your little skills, it's impossible for you to hurt me.
"Just go ahead and try. I want to see how well you've mastered it. Don't worry, you can't kill me," Xiao Yi said with a smile.
"Can I really do it?" Xiaoyue held her fingers, looking cautious.
"Really. At most, it'll just make me sleep for a while," Xiao Yi nodded and smiled.
"Then I'll do it," Xiaoyue took a deep breath, carefully went through the essentials Xiao Yi had taught in her mind, concentrated her strength on her fingertips, and quickly stabbed at the Yuzhen acupoint on the back of Xiao Yi's head.
Xiao Yi felt a sharp force approaching him. With a thought, he adjusted his breath and easily defused it. However, he secretly nodded in his heart. Xiaoyue was really smart. With just this one finger, she had applied the skills and strength quite appropriately. If this had been someone else, this move would have been enough to make them fall asleep immediately.
To encourage her, Xiao Yi's body stiffened, and he exaggeratedly lay back, closing his eyes and pretending to be asleep.
"Ah," Xiaoyue was startled when she saw Xiao Yi lying down. She let out a scream and quickly pounced on him, shouting, "Brother Xiao, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Yi remained silent and motionless, continuing to pretend to be asleep. Only in this way could he better encourage Xiaoyue.
When Xiaoyue couldn't wake Xiao Yi up, she reached out to check his breath. Finding that he was still breathing, she felt relieved.
"Could I really have made him fall asleep with one move?" Xiaoyue looked at her fingers in confusion and muttered to herself, "My god, could I have learned acupressure just like that?"
Xiaoyue's confusion gradually turned into excitement. She held her two fingers and exclaimed in a low voice, her expression excited.
Xiao Yi secretly glanced at Xiaoyue, smiling inwardly, but still had to keep up the act.
"Brother Xiao's acupressure technique is really amazing. It allowed me to master it so quickly," Xiaoyue said, looking at Xiao Yi with joy.
However, looking at the "sleeping" Xiao Yi, Xiaoyue gradually forgot the excitement of just learning the skill. This was the first time she had stared at Xiao Yi's sleeping face from such a close distance.
"Brother Xiao is so handsome," Xiaoyue's eyes became gradually blurred. Her gaze passed over Xiao Yi's thick eyebrows, straight nose, and finally landed on his well - defined lips.
Xiao Yi's lips were of moderate thickness, but the lip line was more distinct than that of ordinary people, exuding a sense of determination. (Reference to the novel "The Mischievous Concubine Teases the Wicked King: The Peerless Summoner, Full - text Reading")
"What sexy lips. Is this what men's sexiness is like?" As this word popped into her mind, Xiaoyue's heart couldn't help but pound. She often heard her female classmates secretly discussing the matter of kissing their boyfriends. Every time she heard about it, she felt itchy in her heart. She really didn't know what it felt like when two people's lips met.
Looking at Xiao Yi's lips, which were so close, Xiaoyue really wanted to steal a kiss. However, as soon as this thought appeared, her face turned bright red. But after hesitating several times, this thought was like a magic spell, lingering in her mind.
Nervously licking her lips, as if doing something bad, Xiaoyue gasped slightly, her heart pounding like a deer. As if possessed, she slowly bent down.
With his spiritual sense extended, how could Xiao Yi not notice Xiaoyue's actions? He was shocked in his heart. However, he absolutely couldn't wake up at this moment. If he woke up and caught Xiaoyue in the act, wouldn't the little girl be extremely embarrassed? Just as this thought flashed through his mind, Xiaoyue's slightly cool lips had slowly pressed against Xiao Yi's.
Xiao Yi's heart trembled. He didn't dare to breathe, and his whole body tensed up instantly. His virgin body was immediately aroused by this stolen kiss, but he didn't dare to move at all.
However, Xiaoyue, who was even more nervous than him, couldn't notice Xiao Yi's strange state. The soft and fleshy feeling under her lips made Xiaoyue go numb. Coupled with the strong masculine breath exhaled by Xiao Yi, which rushed straight into Xiaoyue's nostrils, she started to tremble all over in an instant.
Xiao Yi felt both amused and annoyed. He thought to himself that he had really brought this upon himself.
"So, this is what it feels like to kiss. No wonder people are so fond of it," Xiaoyue murmured to herself with her eyes slightly closed. Finally, she reluctantly left Xiao Yi's lips, stretched out her jade - like finger to touch her own small mouth. Her little face was as red as a sunset glow. When she opened her tightly - clenched hand, her palm was full of sweat.
"My god, I'm so ashamed," After the impulse passed, Xiaoyue was so ashamed that she couldn't bear it. It took her a while to calm down before she dared to look at Xiao Yi again.
Xiao Yi used the Mysterious Medicine True Scripture to suppress his surging emotions. Seeing that the little girl was gradually returning to normal, he dared to wake up.
Stretching, he sat up and deliberately laughed heartily, saying, "Oh, I actually fell asleep. Not bad, Xiaoyue. You're really smart. You can subdue the enemy with one move."
When Xiaoyue saw Xiao Yi wake up, her nervous little face turned red again. However, secretly looking at Xiao Yi's calm expression, her heart gradually settled down. But why did Brother Xiao keep staring at her lips? My god, couldn't he have noticed? It should be impossible. Wasn't he asleep?
Xiaoyue's heart was in a turmoil, and she didn't even hear what Xiao Yi said clearly.
Looking at the little girl's innocent and flustered appearance, the lust that Xiao Yi had just suppressed almost flared up again. He quickly stood up and said, "Alright, Xiaoyue. You've mastered it well. Go to sleep."
After saying that, he strode back to his room.
Xiaoyue patted her chest, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter what. Her mind was filled with the feeling of her lips touching Xiao Yi's, as if she was possessed.
"This girl can arouse my desires effortlessly. Her natural innocence is no less alluring than Shu Wan's bewitching charm," Xiao Yi wiped the sweat from his head, thinking to himself.
He quickly sat cross - legged on the bed, threw an Muscle - Strengthening and Marrow - Washing Pill into his mouth, and started to practice the Mysterious Medicine True Scripture.
It had been a few days since he broke through to the middle stage of the Earth - level. Logically, at this stage, he could use the Essence - Cultivating Pill to refine his body, and it was possible to break through to the peak of the Earth - level in one go.
However, the Essence - Cultivating Pill was a second - level elixir. At the current stage of spiritual sense enlightenment, it was difficult to refine.
"I'm still restricted by my spiritual sense," Xiao Yi sighed slightly. With the minor chronic illnesses of the elderly in Jishitang, it was indeed difficult to obtain a significant amount of meritorious power.
"It seems I have to find a way to treat some life - threatening serious illnesses. Upgrading my spiritual sense is extremely urgent." (Reference to the novel "Dimension Invasion")
Xiao Yi composed himself and continued to practice until dawn before stopping and standing up.
He walked slowly to the front hall and opened the door of Jishitang.
However, as soon as he opened the door, he saw an ambulance speeding towards him in the distance. With a screech, it stopped at the entrance of Jishitang.
The door of the ambulance opened, and a man in a white coat jumped out in a hurry.
"Doctor Xiao," the man was overjoyed when he saw Xiao Yi and immediately rushed over.
Xiao Yi thought he looked somewhat familiar. Looking at the logo of "Medical University Affiliated Hospital" on his white coat, he naturally knew where he came from. Presumably, the affiliated hospital had encountered a difficult case.
"Doctor Xiao, Doctor Yu Ziman asked me to invite you. Can you come to the affiliated hospital with me? It's a matter of life and death," the doctor said, his expression agitated as he grabbed the sleeve of Xiao Yi's clothes, shouting nervously.
"Just as I thought," Xiao Yi nodded, not saying much. He followed the man and got into his car directly.
The male doctor heaved a sigh of relief. While turning the car around, he quickly said to Xiao Yi, "Doctor Xiao, Doctor Yu Ziman is in the delivery room right now. She's in trouble. There's an elderly parturient with congenital heart disease who insisted on giving birth. But she's allergic to anesthesia. Now she's almost in critical condition. Doctor Yu said that if we can't invite you today, it'll be a case of a mother - to - be and her unborn child both dying."
The ambulance, with its siren blaring, drove as fast as if it were flying. In a few minutes, it brought Xiao Yi to the affiliated hospital.
The male doctor led Xiao Yi on a mad dash to the delivery room.
Outside the delivery room, a man had collapsed to the ground, crying. His hands were clutching the door of the delivery room as he wailed, "Honey, why are you so stupid? Your body isn't suitable for pregnancy at all. Even without a child, we could have been happy. If you..."
Xiao Yi frowned and ordered the male doctor beside him, "Tell him to stop crying. He hasn't even done anything yet, and he's already shaking the patient's confidence with his crying."
"That's right. Shut up immediately. Do you want your wife and child to be okay or not?" the male doctor shouted loudly.
The man slumped on the ground, his hands shaking the "critical condition notice" as he cried with a trembling voice, "I'm begging you, save my wife. I just want her to live."
At this moment, Xiao Yi had entered the delivery room.
Yu Ziman was fully dressed in surgical attire, holding forceps in her hand, sweating profusely. As soon as she saw Xiao Yi, she rushed up to him and said straightforwardly, "The parturient is forty years old, with congenital heart disease. She forced herself to get pregnant. The fetus has arrhythmia and the umbilical cord is wrapped around its neck three times. We originally wanted to perform a cesarean section, but the parturient is allergic to anesthesia. Her heart rate has exceeded 160, and she's been in a difficult labor for nearly two hours."
Xiao Yi nodded. Without saying a word, he took out the silver needles from his body and walked towards the dying parturient.
"Who are you? What are you doing?" A male doctor, also fully dressed in surgical attire, stopped Xiao Yi by the bedside and shouted sternly.
"Director Qian, he's the traditional Chinese medicine doctor I invited," Yu Ziman said, panting.
However, Director Qian didn't back down at all. Blocking Xiao Yi, he said in a harsh tone, "Ziman, what are you doing bringing a traditional Chinese medicine doctor here? If something goes wrong, who can take the responsibility?"
"But, Director Qian, do you have a better solution? We can't just give up, can we? I've seen Doctor Xiao's medical skills on the spot. He's our last hope," Yu Ziman exclaimed excitedly.
"Ziman, you're being naive," Director Qian said angrily, glancing at Xiao Yi. He then whispered to Yu Ziman, "If no one else intervenes, even if the parturient dies, we're not responsible. After all, we repeatedly told the family members about the seriousness of the problem before she entered the delivery room. But if you let this outsider, a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, intervene, and the parturient still can't be saved, the consequences will be disastrous. Have you thought about that?"
