So, like a thief, he pushed open the door and went inside.
The room wasn't completely dark; a pale red nightlight illuminated the space, giving it a dreamlike quality. Dong Qingqing lay on the bed with her back to Lu Chen, seemingly fast asleep.
One of her slender, white feet dangled off the edge of the bed, like a pink lotus flower, utterly alluring and tempting to kiss.
And that semi-transparent slip dress she wore couldn't possibly conceal her graceful figure! You could clearly see her two large, round, pink panties barely contained!
Lu Chen took a deep breath and decisively removed all his clothes. They were an old married couple; there was no need to be polite. He started kissing Dong Qingqing's delicate foot, which peeked out from beside the bed, his kisses tracing down her pink thigh to her smooth, white forehead.
Dong Qingqing trembled slightly.
Lu Chen could tell that she woke up when he kissed her inner thigh.
However, she pretended to be asleep.
Lu Chen pressed himself completely against Dong Qingqing and whispered, "Qingqing, will I disturb your sleep?"
Dong Qingqing blushed, clenched her fist, and playfully punched Lu Chen's chest, scolding, "Yes! Get out right now!"
"Okay, get out! But not out!"
With that, Lu Chen rolled around on the bed with Dong Qingqing in his arms. The beautiful woman was panting heavily, laughing seductively, completely losing her usual icy beauty demeanor.
Then, without realizing it, her nightgown rolled off, and her panties transformed into a butterfly, fluttering and fluttering until they reached the floor.
With a sweet scream, Dong Qingqing's nails dug deep into the man's back muscles…
How much time passed, it's unclear, but at the crucial moment, just as they were reaching their climax, both were completely absorbed and immersed in the moment. Dong Qingqing's legs were still tightly wrapped around Lu Chen's back, like two snow-white vines.
Lu Chen was howling like a wild boar. Just then,
"Can you hurry up? I… I can't hold on much longer!"
A weak voice suddenly rang out from the doorway!
In that instant, the two people on the bed, caught in the heat of passion, froze, frozen in their previous, vivid pose, like statues.
Then, their heads snapped and turned towards the door.
The door was ajar, and a young woman covered in blood leaned weakly against the doorframe. A knowing smile played on her lips as she looked at the two on the bed.
This young woman was none other than the stunningly beautiful assassin, Yu Menglan.
Seeing Lu Chen and Dong Qingqing turn around in astonishment, their faces showing shock, she slightly raised her hand, waved it, and whispered, "It's alright, it's alright, I can still manage, though not for long. I just wanted to tell you to hurry up. Once you're done, Qingqing, you can heal my wounds. Continue, I won't disturb you anymore."
With that, she staggered around, pulled the door shut, leaving only a pool of blood on the floor.
Isn't this disturbing? How can anyone continue working like this?
Lu Chen looked at Dong Qingqing strangely: "What...what happened?"
Dong Qingqing smiled wryly: "Menglan probably got into a fight and got injured! This happens often when she works as a bodyguard. She usually comes to me for treatment when she's injured. She said going to the hospital is inconvenient. Although her employer has private doctors, they're all men, and she doesn't like those stinky men touching her, so..."
She sighed deeply.
"Oh, I see!"
Lu Chen nodded, thinking to himself, "Wow! A bodyguard who gets injured in a fight and doesn't dare go to the hospital? Nonsense! She's clearly an assassin who went to kill someone, probably encountered a powerful enemy, and got killed like this. No wonder she wouldn't dare go to the hospital."
He said, "Okay, let's finish quickly, you go out and treat her injuries. Ugh, what a downer!"
With that, he thrust forcefully.
Dong Qingqing cried out in surprise, then shoved Lu Chen away, scolding, "You brat, how can you say that? My cousin's injury is worse than before, she must be in excruciating pain, and you still have the mind to do it! Do it my foot!"
With that, she jumped off the bed naked, quickly putting on her nightgown, not even bothering to put on her underwear.
Lu Chen said dejectedly, "Sister Qingqing, she said she could finish it first and then treat her injury!"
"Come on!" Dong Qingqing rolled her eyes at him, "She said that? You have the heart? You have the heart, but I don't! Besides, you! Based on my experience, with your current energy..."
She blushed as she spoke, finally managing to finish, "...I don't know when it will be finished!"
With that, she ran out.
Lu Chen lay on the bed, gritting his teeth for a while, before finally thinking that he might be able to help, he jumped off the bed and dashed out. Upon entering the living room, he was stunned. Yu Menglan was completely naked, wearing only her underwear. Her voluptuous body was covered in a crisscrossing network of knife and whip wounds.
Most horrifyingly, the blood oozing from those wounds was a dark purple-black, making her once snow-white skin appear terrifying.
Seeing Lu Chen come out, Dong Qingqing quickly said, "Hey, go inside! My cousin isn't dressed!"
Lu Chen shrugged, and as soon as he turned around, he heard Yu Menglan's weak voice, as if she were about to faint: "Qingqing, it's okay. Anyway... anyway, I look scary right now. Besides, maybe Lu Chen can help me!"
Dong Qingqing scoffed: "What can he see? He's not a doctor!"
Yu Menglan smiled faintly: "Qingqing, you don't know, your little brother Lu Chen has incredible powers!"
Last time Yu Menglan came here in the middle of the night, the lacerations on her arm from hitting the floor-to-ceiling glass of the Moon Fang, and the swelling on her face, were all healed by Lu Chen's power, and healed them instantly.
This kind of power left an indelible impression on Yu Menglan.
Therefore, she believed Lu Chen could save her.
Dong Qingqing, unaware of these matters, disbelieved Yu Menglan's words and began cleaning her wounds. Although a gynecologist, she had also studied surgery, and because Yu Menglan frequently came secretly for treatment, her home was well-stocked with small instruments and medicines, so she wasn't too worried.
She first rinsed Yu Menglan's wounds with a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and a physiological disinfectant. The pain was so intense that the female assassin nearly bit the towel in her mouth to pieces, yet she still couldn't help but let out a piercing scream.
The crisscrossing wounds on her body were bubbling with purplish-red blood, from which black blood continuously oozed.
"This isn't an ordinary injury, nor is it ordinary poison!" Dong Qingqing's face paled, filled with fear. "No! Menglan, you must go to the hospital! This is all highly poisonous. I can't cure you here. You have to go to the hospital!"
Yu Menglan gasped for breath, weak but resolute, "No! I can't go there, sister. The people I'm dealing with are very powerful. They're definitely monitoring the hospital now. If I go, I'll be dead!"
"Then what do we do?" Dong Qingqing asked helplessly. "I have no way to eliminate these poisons!"
Yu Menglan looked at Lu Chen, her eyes pleading.
To be honest, Lu Chen could heal this injury; no poison was a problem for him!
He had already used his Healing God ability to test the poison on Yu Menglan's body.
The Healing God ability was indeed powerful, quickly providing Lu Chen with data. The poison in her body was a complex snake venom, extremely potent, but with his Healing God ability, although it would consume a lot of energy, he could still heal her. These past few days, although Lu Chen was busy, he hadn't forgotten his cultivation. He was enthusiastically absorbing the spiritual energy from the black pearl given to him by Yang Jiangyu, and through persistent absorption, he had absorbed ninety percent of it.
Strangely, the remaining ninety percent stubbornly refused to be absorbed by Lu Chen, remaining firmly fixed on the black pearl, leaving him helpless. He also knew that this ten percent of spiritual energy was the essence of the black pearl, and might even generate more true energy than the other ninety percent.
This was the wonder of quality!
Since he couldn't absorb it, he had to temporarily set it aside and turned his attention to the other seven, more ordinary pearls given to him by Yang Jiangyu. Surprisingly, he absorbed their spiritual energy as well.
These pearls, while also rare, were far inferior to the black pearl nurtured by the thousand-year-old Heavenly Treasure Clam. Lu Chen absorbed every last drop of their spiritual energy. As the spiritual energy was exhausted, they all turned into dust-like powder.
Having obtained so much spiritual energy, and through the ancestral transmission method of cultivation, Lu Chen had converted it all into true qi, storing it in his dantian and various meridians, circulating it endlessly.
This was essentially possessing an energy reservoir.
However, healing Yu Menglan's poison wounds would require at least seventy percent of that energy.
If he could easily save her, he might as well do her a favor, but consuming such a large amount of energy was something Lu Chen had to consider. And his final decision was: No!
Damn it, this girl wanted to kill me! Even if she's Dong Qingqing's cousin, what if something changes in the future and she wants to kill me too? I don't want to waste all my energy saving someone who might kill me in the future.
So, in the end, Lu Chen shook his head with a troubled expression: "Menglan, you should go to the hospital. That's the best course of action. Even if the person you're trying to kill has taken control of the hospital, your boss has considerable influence, doesn't he? Have him send someone to protect you!"
Yu Menglan smiled bitterly, shook her head, and remained silent.
Dong Qingqing gritted her teeth: "Menglan, Chen is right. How can your boss be so heartless? You were injured so badly protecting him, and he… he's ignoring you? No way, I'm going to confront him! Where is he?"
"Qingqing, it's no use." Yu Menglan gently shook her head, then looked at Lu Chen: "Save me, please?"
Her expression completely showed that she believed Lu Chen could save her!
Dong Qingqing was also puzzled and looked at Lu Chen, "Chen, you...you really can save my cousin?"
Lu Chen scratched his ear, straightened up, and said calmly, "How could I possibly have that ability? I'm just a pastry chef; I'm more suited to cooking!"
He stretched and said, "Qingqing, you should go find an ambulance! I'm tired, I'm going to sleep!" He turned and went into Dong Qingqing's room, closed the door, and flopped onto the bed.
He was quite conflicted. Should he save Yu Menglan?
He felt it wasn't worth it! Besides not wanting to expend energy saving someone who might kill him later, Lu Chen also considered that his internal energy was hard-won, unlike his primordial energy which could be regenerated; once used, it was gone.
What if he needed it in an emergency later?
Suddenly, the door opened, and Dong Qingqing helped the almost naked Yu Menglan in. Her once alluring, snow-white body was almost unrecognizable; the wounds, stained with deadly poison, were swollen and oozing dark blood.
Yu Menglan gasped for breath, saying each word slowly and deliberately, "Lu Chen, please save me! I...I don't want to die!"
Her tone was filled with a desperate longing for life and a deep plea.
Dong Qingqing, her voice trembling with tears, said, "Lu Chen, although I don't believe you can save Menglan, she believes you can. I don't know what's going on, but I beg you...please save her! Menglan may just be my cousin, but she's always been my best sister. When my parents were seriously ill, she paid for their medical expenses..."
