Chapter 1333
Before he finished speaking, Lily was already in front of him, holding his arm with one hand and lifting it
with another. Then she poked the needles into his arm at lightning speed. She was so fast that she had
already stuck the silver needles in his body before he could react.
Austin was amazed. Everything happened so fast that he did not know if the needle sealed his mouth
or if Lily was so fast that he could not react out of shock. Austin stopped speaking and blinked as he
silently watched her hands move around.
Lily was quiet as well as she concentrated on her work. After all, it was not her first time doing
acupuncture.
She only did it quickly just to scare him. Besides, she had looked through the ancient medical books
and reviewed all the acupuncture and acupoints again beforeing here. Moreover, this acupuncture
was unlike the usual one.
She hadced each silver needle with medicine. Lily did not tell Austin about that. Sometimes,
oversharing would cause a more significant psychological burden on the patient. It was better if he did
not know.
Austin was initially nervous but gradually rxed after discovering he was fine. Once he rxed,
changes began to happen in his body.
A warmth began to spread from his body, slowly spreading to his limbs. This warmth differed from
when he felt his blood boil due to the toxin. He felt rxed andfortable, almost making him want to
close his eyes and rest.
He did so ording to his own will. Once he closed his eyes and his mind was clear, he felt his soul
float. His tensed body seemed to rx, and he felt much morefortable.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, he thought, ‘It seems Lily does have some tricks up her sleeves.''
At this moment, he felt himself getting better once he rxed when suddenly, he felt a jab of pain. The
pain started in his lungs, and he could not help but cough. He knew the needle needed to stay in ce.

If he moved around, the needle might prick the wrong acupoint. Although he wanted to hold back, he
could not control himself.
"Cough! cough! cough!"
He began violently, trying to warn Lily before it was toote.
Fortunately, she was quick to react. When she noticed Austin’s abdomen rising and falling, she quickly
withdrew her hand in time.
The needle did not go in. She watched him desperately turn sideways and cough as if he was going to
cough out his lungs.
Quietly, Dominic hastily stepped forward and put a basin under him, followed by the sound of Austin
retching. Then a mouthful of blood spurted out. While most of it went into the basins, stters were on
the floor.
"Ugh..." Austin''s fit of coughs finally stopped after coughing up blood. Then hey on his back and
sighed with relief. He looked at the ceiling as if drained of all strength. He was numb.
“How are you feeling?" Lily was very calm, not frightened by what had just happened. It was as if this
was all within her expectations.
"I feel like I''ve died ande back to life," Austin replied weakly in a hoarse voice.
"Oh, it''s fine. You should be fine if you did not die." Her face was expressionless, and her words were
cold. However, it still made one feel at ease.
