Chapter 913: Chapter 925: Different Styles (Part 1)
There was only one class in the afternoon, and after it was over, there was nothing else scheduled.
Instead of wasting the afternoon like a lazy person, he made good use of the time.
He called Xi Xiaoyi, asking her to come home because he needed to talk to her urgently.
Xi Xiaoyi’s job required her to be out and about regularly.
So when she got the call from Lin Xi, she drove straight home.
Her feelings for Lin Xi were completely equivalent to seeing him as her man. Once she accepted him, it was easy for him to ask her to do anything.
Among Lin Xi’s women, she was the one who could really let go.
When Lin Xi arrived at her place, she was the only one there, and the nanny aunt had gone out to buy groceries, for at least an hour or more.
"Thank you!" Xi Xiaoyi said as soon as she saw Lin Xi, not asking about the urgent matter, "Last time you could represent Xixi’s father, it was something incredibly joyous for her."
"The kids in kindergarten had repeatedly asked Xixi why they never saw her dad pick her up, and why it’s always her mom at the parent meetings."
"Every time she said, ’Dad is too busy with work, out on business trips!’"
"This excuse won’t work for long, eventually it will be exposed, or perhaps it already has been exposed, and Xixi simply hasn’t told me!"
"So, she called you that day, and you went, and you took first place!"
"These past few days, although Xixi hasn’t shown immense joy, I can feel in my heart that these are the happiest days of her life!"
As she spoke, Xi Xiaoyi was noticeably jealous of Lin Xi.
She hadn’t seen Xixi this happy in a long, long time, and even if there were blissful moments before, they felt different.
Could this be the difference between men and women?
Without waiting for Lin Xi to respond, she continued to ask, "You said on the phone you had an urgent matter, what is it?"
"Is it really so urgent?"
Though she could leave work at any time, she was someone who really loved her job and abided by the rules, so normally she wouldn’t leave early.
"Actually, it’s not particularly urgent!" Lin Xi replied.
He wasn’t in a hurry to perform the ’Hundred Days Foundation Establishment,’ as Chuzhou City seemed to be extremely safe for the time being.
"It’s me....."
Before he could explain, Xi Xiaoyi came forward and wrapped her arms around his neck.
Lin Xi: "..."
Well, he had nothing to hesitate over.
To Lin Xi, Xi Xiaoyi felt different from the others.
The other women all had a sort of youthful purity.
The purpose of today’s visit was unchanged.
Honestly, if Xi Xiaoyi couldn’t move an inch, how would he perform the Nine Divine Needles of Heaven-Reversing later?
If the nanny returned, it’d be a bit awkward for the two of them, worse if Xixi returned and Xi Xiaoyi still couldn’t get out of bed—it would be quite problematic.
Considering these aspects, they chose to pause their quest for life’s meaning.
Next, Lin Xi retrieved a wooden box containing silver needles from the Jade Pendant Space, beginning the ’Hundred Days Foundation Establishment’ of the Nine Divine Needles for Xi Xiaoyi.
He always felt Xi Xiaoyi needed the strength boost even more than his other women.
Given she frequently dealt with various clients, while he had people secretly protecting her, the chance of an incident couldn’t be wholly avoided.
If her own strength improved, she would be able to tackle any situation.
After Zhu Ying and Lin Yanxia underwent the procedure, their strength was elevated to that of junior special forces soldiers, and Xi Xiaoyi was at least a junior special forces soldier, possibly even having better results.
Her health was excellent, and her physique was far superior to Zhu Ying and Lin Yanxia.
This was likely because she was always on-the-go.
She didn’t think too much about Lin Xi performing any acupuncture on her; she knew he wouldn’t harm her, so she lay directly on the bed allowing him to proceed.
The process this time went exceptionally smoothly, much easier than before.
Both mentally and in terms of True Qi, she used about half the usual amount.
No doubt, the breakthrough in mindset helped a lot.
This was truly joyous!
Because next time he performs the ’Hundred Days Foundation Establishment’ again, there’s no need to worry about sudden threats.
Currently, he expended less than a quarter of his power.
Under these conditions, someone at the Early Innate Stage wouldn’t pose any threat to him.
About halfway through, he retrieved the long, slender silver needles from Xi Xiaoyi’s back.
At that moment, her skin was covered in a layer of dark, oily grime, emitting a foul stench.
Women love cleanliness!
She let out a scream, immediately rushing off to bathe.
She washed for a full ten minutes before emerging wearing a robe, her face flushed.
It was unclear whether the hot water did this, or the earlier grime on her body, leaving her feeling awkward.
Either way, she looked incredibly alluring at this moment.
"When is the nanny coming back?" Lin Xi asked, his gaze heatedly locked onto her.
Xi Xiaoyi seemed equally restless; she didn’t understand why, but after Lin Xi’s acupuncture, she was filled with energy, and any fatigue had vanished.
"She should be back soon!" she replied.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi sighed, knowing today there was no opportunity.
Once they started, the noise of battle couldn’t be contained by a single wall, or even two or three walls.
However, a moment later, he heard Xi Xiaoyi making a call, "Auntie, when you’re buying groceries, could you pick up Xixi along the way?"
So, Xixi would be home around six.
This meant they had an hour and a half.
After all, Xi Xiaoyi’s physical fitness had greatly improved.
Lin Xi just felt her strength was akin to a junior special forces soldier, but considerably better than Zhu Ying and Lin Yanxia.
Meanwhile, Xi Xiaoyi’s bed was suffering.
Fortunately, everything in her house had guaranteed quality, and leaned towards high-tech.
