His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1733

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 before coming here. Moreover, this acupuncture was unlike the usual one.

She had laced 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 relaxed after discovering he was fine. Once he relaxed, 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 relaxed and comfortable, almost making him want to close his eyes and rest.

He did so according to his own will. Once he closed his eyes and his mind was clear, he felt his soul float. His tensed body seemed to relax, and he felt much more comfortable.

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 relaxed 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 place. 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 too late.

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, splatters were on the floor.

"Ugh…" Austin's fit of coughs finally stopped after coughing up blood. Then he lay 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 and come 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.
