The Beauties Help Me Become the No.1 Official-Chapter 1215

Chapter 1215

Chapter 1215: Chapter 1215
In Liu Xiaocui’s boudoir, Lin Yifan suddenly realized that something was very unusual about this situation.
The snake venom wasn’t particularly potent, but for Liu Xiaocui with her allergic constitution, it was fatal.
"What should we do? Lin Yifan... you have to save Xiaocui!"
He covered Xiaocui’s mouth with his hand to prevent her from biting her tongue.
Li Guixiang pleaded with tears.
"Right now, I must first clear all the snake venom from her body. You control her, make her face inward, remove all her clothes to facilitate the needle application, and find someone to boil several pots of water. Prepare a large wooden tub in the hall; I need to give her a medicinal bath soon. Hurry and prepare, I’ll go find someone to get the medicine."
Lin Yifan instructed the women in the living room.
He turned and walked out of the room.
Boss Liu, who had been waiting at the door, grabbed Lin Yifan’s hand.
"Yifan, how is my daughter?"
"Xiaocui has an allergic constitution and can’t handle this snake venom. I need to prepare for a procedure to expel the poison, but I’m missing one ingredient, and someone needs to go up the mountain to gather it."
Lin Yifan frowned and glanced around.
"I know medicine, just say what you need, and I’ll go immediately."
"Lin Yifan, just tell us what you need. We’re all here."
The surrounding neighbors warmly gathered around immediately.
All were locals and very familiar with the medicinal plants that grew in the mountains.
But Lin Yifan didn’t speak, his eyes still searching through the crowd.
Before long, he spotted Little Niu crouched under the corn warehouse in the distance.
"Little Niu, come here."
Hearing Lin Yifan’s call, Little Niu excitedly ran over.
Still dirty, he was grinning foolishly.
"Go fetch some dragon bone roots, quickly."
After patting his head, Little Niu immediately turned and ran.
Without saying more, Lin Yifan turned and re-entered the house.
"This little fool doesn’t usually talk to people, but he listens to Lin Yifan."
"Dragon bone roots have long been extinct; no one’s found them in years, can a fool find them?"
"Little Niu wanders in the mountains all day, maybe he does know."
"With so many people here, he sends a fool, what are the chances? It’d be miraculous."
Watching the curtains in the living room being drawn, the villagers whispered among themselves.
They didn’t take the usually silent Little Niu seriously.
Lin Yifan didn’t need to explain anything to them.
Right now, the most important thing was to detoxify Liu Xiaocui.
In the boudoir, Li Guixiang and others had already stripped Xiaocui clean.
Facing the incoming Lin Yifan, their feelings were complex but left them with no choice.
They could only press down hard on the still-convulsing Liu Xiaocui.
"Hold her down, I need to apply the needles now."
Lin Yifan took out silver needles from a sandalwood box.
He jumped directly onto the kang, bent down, and applied the needles one by one on Xiaocui’s snow-white body.
As each silver needle pierced in, the violently shaking Xiaocui finally stopped struggling.
Stopping the convulsions was merely the first step.
Lin Yifan then inserted a few needles into Liu Xiaocui’s temples.
The once-insensible Liu Xiaocui finally regained clarity.
"All right, I need to prepare the skin, everyone not involved, please leave the room, and quickly boil the water."
Upon hearing this, Li Guixiang could only usher the aunts out of the room.
Standing in the hall, they listened intently to the commotion inside.
"Guixiang, do you think Xiaocui in this state with a man inside, could something happen?"
"Now’s not the time for gossip; unless you want to perform the surgery?"
"I’m just worried, and besides, after this, how can she ever marry?"
"Aunt, I’ll remember your words; next time you need help, I’ll be sure to watch out for you, never letting you suffer a loss."
"I... oh, I didn’t mean it that way, the doctor is like a parent, nothing will happen."
The women chattered incessantly, but it didn’t faze Lin Yifan inside.
With a razor in hand, he crouched on the kang, carefully shaving the hair around the wound.
Then, he parted Xiaocui’s legs to clearly see the wound.
"Xiaocui, I need you to remain conscious and communicate your body’s sensations with me so that I can judge how much venom remains."
Given the sparse hair, Lin Yifan quickly cleaned it up.
He then picked up a scalpel and cautiously opened Xiaocui’s wound.
Enduring the pain, Xiaocui didn’t want to speak.
But the shame of the situation left her no choice but to say something.
"Why... are you saving me? I heard you don’t get along with my father."
"Because I’m a doctor; treating and saving people is my job."
"But... without love... what reason is there for me to live?"
"Are you sure he loves you?"
"He’s willing to die for me."
"Dying is easy; the one who lives for you is truly worth your love because living and working hard for you to ensure a better life is where the real value lies."
"So are you saying he doesn’t love me?"
Xiaocui looked at Lin Yifan expectantly, seeking an answer only he could provide.
"In my opinion, it’s not love, or more possession. Like a toy locked in a cage, not letting others touch or letting the toy have freedom. Do you call that love?"
Pressing his fingers on the wound, the dark blood oozed out slowly.
But it was clear that pressing alone wasn’t enough, so Lin Yifan slowly bent down.
"What are you doing?"
With her face flushed, Xiaocui looked at him with fear.
His face was already near her private area.
"Extracting the residual poison, it’ll be over soon."
Lin Yifan opened his mouth, sucking on the wound.
With a strong suction, Xiaocui instinctively grabbed his hair.
An unprecedented sensation made her let out a small moan.
"Pfft!"
A mouthful of foul-smelling black blood spat onto the floor; Lin Yifan repeated the process until the blood oozing from the wound finally turned dark red.
Xiaocui lay there weakly, feeling the shame of her leg position.
She closed her eyes tightly, unable to believe she exposed herself to a stranger like this.
"Alright, most of the poison is cleared. Next, I’ll apply a few more needles, and a medicinal bath will take care of the rest."
Lin Yifan rinsed his mouth, then returned with the silver needles.
He tucked her legs back under the covers and gave a few quick acupoint pricks.
"What exactly is love?"
The embarrassed Xiaocui suddenly opened her lovely eyes.
She looked at Lin Yifan with anticipation.
"Love means different things to different people. To me, it’s about mutual completion and support, helping each other become the best version of themselves. If you have resources, it’s enjoying flowers in spring and snow in winter. Without them, it’s appreciating the dawn and watching the clouds together."
Lin Yifan remained focused on applying the Silver Needle Acupoint Technique.
"Lin Yifan, you’re so literate; I’ve never heard anyone speak like that. It sounds so beautiful."
Xiaocui’s eyes suddenly became extraordinarily gentle.
Compared to the foul-mouthed hooligans around her, Lin Yifan’s words made her feel like she could breathe easier.
"So, you should read more books. The world is beautiful, and only through hard study can you see it."
Lin Yifan smiled, withdrawing the silver needles.
With most of the toxic blood removed, now all that remained was the medicinal bath.
"Will you take responsibility for me?"
Taking a deep breath, Xiaocui asked softly.
"Of course."
Lin Yifan answered without a second thought and jumped to the ground.
In his words, he responded as a doctor.
He didn’t even glance at her private area.
It was both medical ethics and his duty.
But to the young girl’s ears, it meant something entirely different.
