I stormed down the mountain, took down all the big shots in the city, and the female CEO dragged me

"Everything is ready."

The bodyguard respectfully reported, and Zhang Jiushan looked at Xu Yuan, who was sitting calmly on the stool.

He slowly got up and walked downstairs. Upon hearing the news, everyone immediately turned to look at him with curiosity.

"Why is it a child?"

"Isn't this ridiculous?"

"Ninth Brother, what are you doing?"

A man who bore a striking resemblance to Zhang Jiushan approached him and said, "If you want him to treat Ruonan, you must be running a fever, right?"

"I know you've been under pressure because of Ruonan, but you can't bring in a brat, can you?"

"Third Brother, let him give it a try."

Zhang Jiushan didn't really have a better solution.

Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, he'll try.

Xu Yuan walked out of the room, stood on the steps, looked up at the clear blue sky, and strode towards the stove dug out of the ground in the backyard, where a bathtub big enough for one person to lie down was already placed.

"Use tents to enclose the area, but make sure the tops are open, not sealed off."

"Do as he says," Zhang Jiushan said, wanting to see what tricks Xu Yuan could come up with.

Hearing the chattering behind him, Zhang Jiushan called over his bodyguards: "Please ask them to stay away and not disturb the doctor's treatment."

Xu Yuan bent down, picked up the piece of wood from the ground, and examined it carefully: "Light the fire, and stop the fire when the medicine soup boils."

After arranging the lighting of the fire, he looked at An Hong and said, "Half an hour after the fire is lit, we can send Miss Zhang inside."

"After she soaks in there for another half hour, have someone carry her out, immediately dry her off, apply herbal paste, and have someone heat up the herbal soup again. After half an hour, once the soup is reheated to a suitable temperature, let the young lady go back in."

This process repeated itself.

"How long will it take?" Zhang Jiushan asked expressionlessly.

"Two nines, eighteen hours."

Xu Yuan patiently explained, "Nine hours later, I will go in for a massage to completely open up the pores on her body."

"Eighteen hours?"

"What if he doesn't wake up then?"

Their daughter has already been stripped naked, and now so many people are watching. If she doesn't wake up, the Zhang family will truly become the biggest joke in the world.

"If he doesn't wake up, do whatever you want with him."

"Okay, we'll wait for eighteen hours."

Zhang Jiushan waved his hand dismissively: "Please go and rest, sir."

Xu Yuan was led to a small room next door, where he was "protected" by bodyguards both inside and outside.

The noise outside gradually subsided. Xu Yuan sat on the sofa, picked up a glass of tea, took a sip, and closed her eyes slightly. She could still hear the crackling of firewood burning outside.

"We'll be there in half an hour!"

Shouts came from outside, and Xu Yuan slowly opened his eyes. They were preparing to put Zhang Ruonan into the bathtub.

"Dude, is it going to work or not?"

Xu Nuo remembers pacing back and forth in the room; the calmer things were, the more uneasy she felt.

"You still don't trust me?" Xu Yuan said confidently.

Sitting next to him, Du Aili looked at him and said, "You're really confident you can wake Ruonan up."

"Now that things have come to this, is there any room for regret?"

Do your best, leave the rest to fate, and ultimately, it's up to her destiny.

Looking at Xu Yuan sitting on the sofa, Du Aili didn't see an eighteen or nineteen-year-old young man, but rather a mature and steady old man.

Were you just concerned about me?

Xu Yuan suddenly grinned and looked at Du Aili: "You don't need to be nervous. Even if she doesn't wake up in the end, the Zhang family won't dare to do anything to me."

"Who cares about you?"

Du Aili turned her head to look elsewhere: "You're really a strange person, so presumptuous."

"Being affectionate depends on the person."

With someone like you, what man wouldn't be interested in being affectionate?

Ultimately, I am human, not a god.

Even gods have moments when they are tempted by worldly desires.

Besides, it's my fault; you're just too beautiful.

"Glib-tongued."

Du Aili muttered something to herself, a blush inexplicably rising to her face, and lowered her head, remaining silent.

She had received countless compliments since childhood, but Xu Yuan was the first person to offer such a straightforward praise.

"Brother, what time is it? You still have time to flirt with Sister Ai Li?"

"I'm really impressed with you." Xu Nuo didn't know what to say. She was worried to death, while Xu Yuan was still admiring the beautiful woman.

Xu Yuan waved his hand dismissively: "What's meant to come will come. He won't stop coming just because you're afraid, right?"

He's taking advantage of your fear of him.

After offering a word of comfort to her sister, Xu Yuan looked at Du Aili and said, "I actually know a little about palmistry. Would you like me to take a look?"

Du Aili rolled her eyes dramatically: "That's what charlatans on TV say when they want to take advantage of people."

"Yeah?"

Xu Yuan was stunned. He thought only his master knew this move, and his master even told him that it was a secret technique. It turns out that everyone else knows it too.

I was deceived by my master.

As night deepened, the lights in the rooms came on, making the Zhang family manor as bright as day.

None of the doctors and Zhang family relatives who arrived during the day left.

Some people want to wait for the result, while others are waiting to see their wish made into a joke.

Hua Yicheng yawned and raised his wrist to check the time.

"Eighteen hours, that's already halfway through."

Why is there still no movement?

"Mr. Xu, it's time."

Someone came to remind Xu Yuan, and he got up, stretched, and walked out of the room.

Not far away, Moriji had been keeping an eye on the movements at the door of the room. When he saw Xu Yuan come out, he and Trepp also stood up.

Moriji called and sent someone to check the information. It seems that there is such a treatment method in ancient books. As for whether it is effective, there is no record in the ancient books.

The strong smell of herbs lingered in the air. Xu Yuan walked to the tent and looked up at the night sky again. The stars were twinkling brighter than they had in half a month.

"I'm going in."

Xu Yuan looked at Zhang Jiushan, whose eyes looked haggard, and said, "If you're worried, then let your wife and Ai Li come along."

Zhang Jiushan looked at his wife, then at Du Aili: "Then we'll listen to the master."

Xu Yuan also wanted to bring the two of them in, as a way to prove himself; otherwise, if something happened, he really wouldn't be able to explain himself.

It's as if he's lusting after other women's bodies.

As she approached the tent, Xu Yuan suddenly turned around and untied the silk scarf wrapped around Du Aili's neck with one hand, revealing her long, white neck.

Du Aili subconsciously raised her hand to touch her chest, noticed Xu Yuan's gaze, and glared at him reproachfully.

"May I borrow this?"

Xu Yuan pulled open the silk scarf with both hands, folded it twice, covered his eyes, and tied it slightly tight.

"Now you can't see anything, so you can rest assured."

"You want a blindfolded massage?"

Zhang Jiushan never expected that Xu Yuan would be blindfolded.

An Hong was even more worried: "Wouldn't it be easier for them to touch places they shouldn't touch if they're blindfolded?"

"Don't worry, Madam. I'm more skilled with my eyes closed than with them open."

Xu Yuan patiently explained that there was nothing he could do even with his eyes covered.

After all, I was young and vigorous. Before, when I was on the mountain, the skills my master made me practice were all virgin skills, and I had never broken the rules.

If the second brother were to see Zhang Ruonan lying inside and his blood boils, it wouldn't look good if he looked up.

Du Aili was satisfied with his action.

"What's wrong with me? Why am I angry because he wants to see other women's bodies?"

She realized her thoughts were wrong and quickly shook her head.

Make a wish and walk into the tent, and the outside instantly becomes quiet.

He stood in front of the steaming bathtub, dipping his fingers into the medicinal soup to feel the temperature: "It's almost ready, you can all go out now."

An Hong and Du Aili stayed behind, while the others left for the time being.

Xu Yuan held his breath and concentrated his energy at his fingertips, gently pressing them onto the acupoints on Zhang Ruonan's smooth skin.

His movements became faster and faster, dazzling An Hong. It seemed as if an invisible force was covering the bathtub and pounding it from side to side.

"Turn around."

Xu Yuan gave a soft rebuke, and Zhang Ruonan, who was lying flat, suddenly turned over and faced away from him.

His hands kept moving, and he quickly and lightly tapped the acupoints on his back.

"change!"

Through his fingers, Xu Yuan could clearly feel the smoothness of the woman's skin. He quickly suppressed his chaotic thoughts and focused on massaging and acupressure.

Zhang Jiushan paced back and forth outside with his hands behind his back, while the others dared not breathe and waited silently.

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Xu Yuan came out.

He was soaked in sweat, and his fingers ached.

"How is it?"

Zhang Jiushan hurriedly stepped forward to inquire.

"Just nine more hours."
