Chapter 1: The Beautiful Big Girl

  "The master said his silver needle was specially made and very expensive, so he didn't let me take it down the mountain." Xia Tian thought of this and felt dissatisfied, "He's just jealous of me and intentionally looking for trouble, but never mind, I'll go buy one now."

  "Ordinary silver needles will do?" Liu Yunman was a bit skeptical.

  "It's okay." Xiatian nodded affirmatively, "The silver needle is just a medium, the most important thing isn't the needle, but the air."

  "Qi?" Yvonne listened more and felt more mysterious, "Xia Tian, you won't say it's qigong, will you?"

  "That's about it, Yunman sister. I'll wait here for a while, I'll go buy some silver needles first." Xia Tian turned around and walked towards the door, but stopped again at the entrance, "Yunman sister, do you know where to buy silver needles around here?"

  "I'll go with you." Liu Yunman said somewhat helplessly.

  The two went downstairs and then headed to the parking lot together to get their car.

  "Yun Man!" Just as he entered the parking lot, a magnetic male voice came over.

  It's getting annoying in summer, who is so affectionate and calls him wife?

  And as he looked at that person clearly, he became even more displeased. How could this guy be so handsome? He was almost as handsome as him.

  That guy is really handsome, tall and strong, with a beautiful appearance, his hair naturally curly, which adds to his charm. Not only does he look good, but the car he drives is also very eye-catching. In this parking lot, his Hummer has a unique presence, although there are many luxury cars in this parking lot, but his Hummer is absolutely one-of-a-kind. After all, it's not common to see someone driving a Hummer in the city.

  When she saw this person appear, Liu Yunman couldn't help but glance at Xia Tian beside her, with a hint of unease in her expression. The place where she lived was indeed not known to many people, but the person in front of her happened to be one of those few people, and even more so, was the most troublesome one among them, and could even be said to be the one she feared seeing the most.

  "Gao Zong, what a coincidence!" Liu Yunman gave a forced smile and greeted the handsome young man.

  "It's not a coincidence, I came here on purpose to find you." The handsome guy spoke as he walked over and glanced at Xia Tian, "Yun Man, who is this..."

  "This is a friend I just met..." Liu Yunman's heart became increasingly uneasy, because she already had a feeling that the other person was coming for Xia Tian, and it seemed that her having dinner with Xia Tian at the restaurant had already reached this person's ears.

  "Not friends." Xia Tian corrected seriously beside her, "I am Yun Man's husband."

  Xiatian seemed to have a special intuition for love rivals, and as soon as he saw this guy, he knew he was there to steal his wife. So he decided to take the initiative and declared ownership of Liu Yunman.

  Liu Yunman knew things were going to be troublesome as soon as she heard this, but she also knew that explaining herself now would be useless. Moreover, if she had to say it, Xia Tian wasn't just talking nonsense after all; there was a certain verbal agreement between them.

  That handsome guy had a flash of ferocity in his eyes, but quickly returned to normal, and instead stretched out his hand to Xia Tian: "I am Gao Mingyang."

  "My name is Xia Tian." However, Xia Tian had no intention of shaking hands with Gao Mingyang, and he certainly wouldn't shake hands with his love rival.

  Gao Mingyang's face showed a hint of annoyance, but after glancing at Liu Yunman, he smiled again: "So it's Mr. Xia, I wonder what great heights you've reached?"

  "I was just about to say that in the summer," Xia Tian said, but Liu Yunman suddenly pulled his arm and hastily said: "President Gao, I have something urgent with Xia Tian, let's talk next time!"

  Regardless of how Gao Mingyang reacted, Liu Yunman pulled Xia Tian into the car and hastily started the engine, driving out of the parking lot.

  The rear door of the Hummer suddenly opened, and a thin man crawled out from inside, came to Gao Mingyang's side, and said respectfully: "Young Master Gao!"

  "I want all the information about that bastard Xiatian before tonight!" A sinister smile spread across Gao Mingyang's handsome face.

  "Yes, young master." The thin and small man replied respectfully.

  ……

  In the car, Xia Tian looked at Liu Yunman: "Sister Yunman, you seem to be a little afraid of Gao Mingyang?"

  "In the summer, you'd better be careful these days, Gao Mingyang might find someone to deal with you." Liu Yunman hesitated for a moment and decided to tell Xia Tian the truth, letting him prepare mentally.

  "It doesn't matter, I'm not afraid." Xia Tian was completely nonchalant about it.

  "Summer, be serious for once! Do you think I'm joking?!" Liu Yunman slammed on the brakes, and the car came to a stop. "Do you know who Gao Mingyang is? Do you know what happens to those who offend Gao Mingyang? Let me tell you, losing limbs and becoming disabled are considered good outcomes. Who knows how many people have been imprisoned, hit by cars, or driven to suicide? And then there are those who completely disappear, as if they never existed in this world!"

  Liu Yunman said while rubbing her temples, which hurt again.

  "Yunman sister, I didn't say you were joking, but I'm really not afraid!" Xia Tian looked at Liu Yunman, "Let's hurry up and buy the silver needle, after I help you with the acupuncture, your headache will be gone."

  Liu Yunman originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, she realized that no matter what she said, it would be useless. So she quickly went to buy silver needles. If summer really could alleviate her illness, she would immediately take Summer to the Liu family and cure the others. By then, even if something happened to Summer, the curse that had plagued the Liu family for generations would have been lifted.

  She and Xia Tian have known each other for only a few hours, so it's impossible to talk about feelings. In these years, Liu Yunman has never thought of talking about emotions either. So she can unhesitatingly reach an agreement with Xia Tian: as long as he can cure the strange disease in the Liu family, she will be his woman; whether she likes him or not is not important to her.

  About half an hour later, the two returned to Liu Yunman's bedroom, and the silver needle had naturally been bought back.

  Xiatian stood in the middle of the bedroom, closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. When he opened his eyes again, Xiatian seemed to have changed completely in that instant.

  Liu Yunman was surprised to find that Xia Tian's face no longer had any trace of a smile, his expression was solemn and stern, and his entire body emitted an inexplicable aura.

  "Lie flat on the bed with your arms stretched out." Xia Tian finally spoke up, his tone also changing slightly, carrying a commanding flavor.

  "Should I take off my clothes?" Yú Yún Màn hesitated for a moment before asking.

  "No need." Xia Tian replied briefly, and he already had a silver needle in his hand.

  Liu Yunman sat down on the bed, but hadn't lain down yet. Looking at the silver needle, she couldn't help but ask another question: "Doesn't the silver needle need to be disinfected?"

  Just after finishing speaking, Liu Yunman suddenly felt that the room seemed to have a hint of chilliness. Then she was surprised to find that Xia Tian's silver needle had suddenly been covered with a layer of white frost, and the cold air was coming from the silver needle. However, in the next moment, a wave of hot air came, and the white frost on the silver needle instantly vaporized, sizzling and emitting white smoke.

  "It's been disinfected." Xia Tian's voice rang out in time, "Lie down, I'm going to start the injection now."

  Liu Yunman finally lay down, but her eyes were fixed on Xia Tian without blinking. Then she found that Xia Tian had closed his eyes again.

  "He wouldn't think of giving an injection with his eyes closed, would he?" Just as Liu Yunman's mind had just flashed this thought, Xia Tian gave an injection, but it was on the arm.

  A wisp of breath passed through the silver needle into her body, this breath was cold with a hint of warmth, warm with a hint of cold, sometimes cold and sometimes hot, cold and hot intertwined, it was indeed strange.

  This eerie aura instantly filled her meridians, and Liu Yunman suddenly felt a dizziness in front of her eyes, her vision becoming somewhat unclear. At the same time, her head felt a bit dizzy, and her body seemed to be alternately cold and hot. After a while, it was as if thousands of ants were crawling inside her, feeling numb and very uncomfortable. But after another moment, she felt like she had just taken a sauna bath, with every pore feeling extremely comfortable.

  "Alright." A slightly tired voice came from beside her ear.

  "So soon?" Liu Yunman was stunned for a moment, because she felt that it seemed like just a short while ago, and the whole process seemed to have taken less than a minute.

  At this time, Liu Yunman also found that her head was no longer dizzy, and her eyes were very clear. She sat up from the bed, feeling more energetic than ever before. Turning her head, she saw that Xia Tian was sitting cross-legged on the ground, his face a bit pale, while around his body, there was a thin layer of fog.

  "What's wrong with you in the summer?" asked Liu Yunman, unable to help herself.

  Xiatian didn't respond, and the mist surrounding him gradually dispersed. His complexion also slowly returned to normal.

  After a few more minutes, Xia Tian slowly let out a mouthful of turbid air, opened his eyes and stood up.

  "Yunman sister, I'm fine." Xia Tian smiled at Liu Yunman, and his whole person returned to his usual self.

  "Do I still need an injection?" Liu Yunman felt a little uneasy.

  "No need, once a month is enough." Xia Tian shook his head and immediately looked worried, "Yun Man sister, for now I can only temporarily slow down your illness, but don't worry, I can at least let you live for another year. Within this year, I will definitely think of other ways."

  "Then, Xia Tian, I'll head back to the hospital first. I still have work. Are you going to the flower shop or staying here?" Liu Yunman's mind was racing, and in an instant, she decided to go to the hospital for a check-up. Only this way could she confirm whether her condition had improved, and ultimately determine if Xia Tian could really cure her.

  Such a short treatment process always makes Liu Yunman a little uneasy. She takes out her phone and prepares to call a friend in the CT room to arrange an examination for herself.

  "Yunman sister, I'll go back to the flower shop," Xia Tian replied.

  "What? It's almost three o'clock?" Yu Yunman suddenly saw the time on her phone and was shocked. She clearly remembered that she had just bought the silver needle and come back, it wasn't even two o'clock yet, how did it suddenly become almost three o'clock?
