But at this moment, the man raised his head and suddenly found a young man standing not far away. Seeing this person, the man abruptly stopped. Seeing this, the young man slowly walked up to the man disguised as a cleaner and said, "Mr. Ren." The young man immediately recognized Ren Tianye, who was pretending to be a cleaner.

Ren Tianye snorted coldly and said, "How are you here?" The young man was indeed Xiao Yifei. So upon seeing Xiao Yifei, Ren Tianye paused for a moment and stopped, looking at Xiao Yifei's face. Ren Tianye smiled wryly, thinking to himself, what could Xiao Yifei possibly be doing here, except smugly mocking him.

"Laugh if you want to laugh." Ren Tianye glanced at Xiao Yifei and said with a bitter smile. Hearing Ren Tianye say this, Xiao Yifei shook his head. Ren Tianye appeared somewhat puzzled by the shake of the head, but the next second he understood, as Xiao Yifei said nothing but performed a thumbs-up gesture.

Ren Tianye was stunned for a while before he reacted, letting out a bitter laugh and lowering the brim of his hat again. "Does he know?" Ren Tianye slowly asked. Hearing this, Xiao Yifei shook his head, indicating he hadn't told Qianxi.

Seeing Xiao Yifei shake his head, Ren Tianye nodded with a smile, then bypassed Xiao Yifei and left directly, leaving Xiao Yifei to watch Ren Tianye's departing back with mixed feelings. But at the moment, Xiao Yifei couldn't resolve anything; it was all Ren Tianye's own choice, and he surely wouldn't regret it.

Thinking this, Xiao Yifei then left the building.

A few days later, Xiao Yifei returned to Qianxi's home with the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle. Obviously, this time Xiao Yifei came to solve the side effects of Qianxi's cultivation technique. Xiao Yifei had already prepared everything, and everything was ready except for the east wind.

Qianxi was happy because she could get rid of the side effects. Since the process of needling wasn't very painful, Qianxi was sitting in a chair, prepared to receive treatment, while Xiao Yifei, like an old practitioner of Chinese Medicine, was making some preparations before the acupuncture.

"Are you ready?" Xiao Yifei was about to treat Qianxi. Upon hearing this, Qianxi nodded. Liu Rui, who was beside them, also appeared very nervous, not daring to speak loudly. Seeing Qianxi nod, Xiao Yifei was about to begin. "Liu Rui, help me lift Qianxi's shirt."

Upon hearing, Liu Rui nodded his head, quickly lifted the shirt off Qianxi's back, exposing the fair skin to the air at that moment. But Xiao Yifei wasn't concerned with these things. After cleaning the acupuncture points with alcohol, he held the already sterilized Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle in his hand.

"I'm starting now." Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yifei inserted a needle into Qianxi's back. Despite being extremely careful, it was unavoidable to feel pain because the point was extremely sensitive. Seeing Qianxi sucking in a breath of cold air, Liu Rui also couldn't help but feel heartache.

However, for the sake of Qianxi's health, Liu Rui hardened his heart. After the first needle came the second one, and then the third, and before long, Qianxi's back was adorned with seven silver needles, her body drenched in cold sweat. Liu Rui stood by watching Qianxi, which comforted her heart substantially.

With all the needles inserted into Qianxi's body, Xiao Yifei slowly exhaled a breath, but it wasn't over yet. The Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle had to remain in Qianxi's body for a while before it could be pulled out. "Qianxi, control the True Qi to circulate through your meridian once."

Upon hearing Xiao Yifei's words, Qianxi nodded and subsequently began to direct her internal True Qi to circulate step by step through the acupuncture points identified by Xiao Yifei. Initially, Qianxi felt as if there was a wall blocking her True Qi at every point.

As Qianxi slowly overcame these obstacles, the circulation of her True Qi became smooth. Additionally, beyond the smoothness came a sense of comfort, so much so that if Xiao Yifei weren't present, Qianxi might very well let out a contented hum.

Time passed second by second, and it was unclear how long it had been. Now, the comfortable feeling of Qianxi's True Qi circulation had dissipated, almost returning to its original state. At this moment, Xiao Yifei also exhaled slowly and asked, "How do you feel?"

In response, Qianxi nodded and replied, "No difference from usual." Hearing Qianxi's comment about no difference, Xiao Yifei knew it was almost over, and thus he started pulling out the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle from Qianxi's back. As the silver needle was extracted, Qianxi felt a wave of relief.

Afterwards, Xiao Yifei applied some anti-inflammatory medication to Qianxi's back. Upon completing everything, Xiao Yifei washed and put away the silver needles. After the acupuncture session, Qianxi felt a wave of fatigue and gently leaned into Liu Rui's arms.

Seeing Qianxi like this, Liu Rui couldn't help but worry, so he looked at Xiao Yifei, as naturally, Liu Rui didn't understand these things. Seeing the concern on Liu Rui's face, Xiao Yifei smiled and said, "It's nothing, he's just asleep." After speaking, Xiao Yifei gave Liu Rui a pat, "Take him in to rest."

Upon hearing Xiao Yifei say that Qianxi was simply asleep, Liu Rui let out a sigh of relief and followed Xiao Yifei's advice to carry Qianxi back into the room. After a while, Liu Rui also stepped out of the room, gently closing the door behind him, while Xiao Yifei sat on the sofa sipping tea.

Unknowingly, half a day had passed since this acupuncture began, but Liu Rui didn't feel that much time had gone by. "Thank you, Brother Mu." Hearing Liu Rui being so polite, Xiao Yifei chuckled and said, "Why so formal?"

Lua Rui chuckled bashfully upon hearing this. Actually, this gratitude goes beyond just the treatment for Qianxi this time. Previously, to get himself out of prison, Xiao Yifei put in considerable effort. Thinking of this, Liu Rui just wanted to express his gratitude properly.

But Liu Rui didn't say this aloud. At this time, the two brothers were sitting on the sofa, and Xiao Yifei suddenly said, "I haven't been able to relax like this for a long time." Xiao Yifei's tone carried a hint of sentiment. Indeed, since Xiao Yifei came to Beijing, troubles had been continuous, and he had never truly rested well.

Nor had there been such an opportunity to sit here without thinking of anything. Upon hearing this, Liu Rui let out a bitter smile and said, "It's all over." Hearing the word "over," Xiao Yifei shook his head. No, it wasn't over yet, because Tang Rong was still in someone else's hands.

Seeing Xiao Yifei shake his head, Liu Rui couldn't help but frown. Could there be something he didn't know? Thinking of it, Liu Rui became curious and asked. Hearing Liu Rui ask, Xiao Yifei simply shook his head. These matters, he didn't want to share with Liu Rui and add to his worries; it was better for Liu Rui to take good care of Qianxi.

Xiao Yifei wouldn't speak, and Liu Rui didn't press further, choosing to silently sit next to Xiao Yifei. After a while, Xiao Yifei patted Liu Rui's shoulder and said with heartfelt sincerity, "Qianxi is a good girl, cherish her well." Upon hearing this, Liu Rui was startled, then nodded. Xiao Yifei's manner of speaking was somewhat reminiscent of his grandfather.
