The warm feeling was followed by a sense of numbness.
It started with a slight numbness, and soon after, it turned into itchiness. Then, all ten of his fingers started to hurt.
Although all of these were a little uncomfortable, Zhan Lichuan still felt extremely excited.
This was because it meant that there was still a miracle that could happen to his body, which had already been declared dead.
About 20 minutes later, Jian Qian pulled out the silver needles from his body. Just like last night, she smoothly flipped Zhan Lichuan onto his back, put on his clothes, covered him with a blanket, and then walked back to her room.
Similar to what happened before, as soon as she left, Zhan Lichuan immediately opened his eyes.
He took a look at the security footage that had been hacked, and then adjusted it once again.
He clearly saw that Jing Qian was doing acupuncture for him just now.
He had tried multiple acupuncture therapies after becoming paralyzed. Most of the time, he would be covered with numerous silver needles, and in order for it to be more effective, they would run electricity through it.
However, despite the numerous needles used and the electricity, his body was still unresponsive. It was as if he didn’t feel anything.
But tonight, Zhan Lichuan truly experienced how it was to be treated by the ‘boss.’
From the very beginning, there were only three silver needles that were pierced into his body.
The three needles were extremely long, something that normal doctors wouldn’t use.
But soon, Zhan Lichuan’s attention was caught by Jing Qian’s face, which was turning pale.
Zhan Lichuan initially thought that it was Jing Qian’s excellent technique that made it possible for him to feel the warm current, since the only thing that she had been doing throughout was just rolling the silver needle with her fingers.
After taking a closer look, he realized that the movement of rolling the needles was not as simple as he had imagined.
She was applying force onto the needles!
It looked like it was an extremely large force, and she was able to skillfully pass them through the silver needle.
This would explain why the acupuncture treatment given by the other doctors didn’t work, but Jing Qian’s did.
When he saw her good-looking face turn ghostly pale with droplets of sweats appearing on her forehead, faint ripples formed in his eyes.
He saw how Jing Qian had slowly placed everything back into its place and how she almost fell while walking back to her bedroom. Zhan Lichuan wanted to reach out to her.
But, he realized that it wouldn’t be possible because he was a useless piece of trash.
As for her, she had already returned to her side of the room.
In fact, from Jing Qian’s point of view, being exhausted was a good thing, as long as it wasn’t seen by any of her enemies.
This was similar to stamina training. In order to get to a higher level, you must first break down all the accumulated energy. When you realized that you had been completely drained and had reached the limit, you would have to overcome it so that you’d reach another level.
It was the same with cultivating ‘Qi’.
For her, she would be able to progress faster if she had more chances of being drained.
The only reason why Jing Qian was chosen to be the Young Mistress of the Zhan family was that Zhan Lichuan’s life was of extreme ‘Yang,’ while Jing Qian was of extreme ‘Yin.’ Since they were able to balance out each other, they were a match made in heaven.
Coincidentally, Jing Qian had been practicing ‘Qi’ at night ever since she was a child. In other words, the ‘Qi’ that she had been cultivating was known as ‘Yin Qi’.
As the life of the previous owner was of extreme ‘Yin’, it made it even more suitable for her cultivation. Perhaps this was why her soul had been reborn into this body.
After being completely exhausted from before, it was time for a good sleep.
After returning to her room, Jing Qian fell asleep as soon as she laid down while Zhan Lichuan, who was in the other room, watched the security footage until the sun rose.

Although she had set an alarm, Jing Qian was still late.
For someone like her, who had been struggling with insomnia, the only thing that she would never stop herself from doing was sleep.
Therefore, even with the alarm, Jing Qian did not wake up at the time that she had expected. By the time she arrived at Zhongbo Entertainment, the regular meetings had already ended.
Just when everyone was leaving, they saw Jing Qian walking into the room like a Queen, even though she was late, and their eyes were filled with ridicule.
