Chapter 585: Chapter 577: Her Bones Are Too Hard Chapter 585: Chapter 577: Her Bones Are Too Hard Tang Yuxin stared blankly at Tong Feng.
Her eyes were transparent yet too sharp, causing Tong Feng to cough involuntarily, and somehow felt his face burning.
“Tang Yuxin, what’s your answer?”
Tong Feng asked her again.
His voice lacked the original calmness, as if he’s reached the edge of his patience.
It was similar to a man who’d been starving for a long time, suddenly seeing a feast in front of him.
Clearly, all he needed to do was reach out to grab and eat it, satisfying his hunger once and for all.
But strangely, he couldn’t get to it.
...
He waited day after day, yet the food remained in its place, and he was still unable to eat.
It was impossible for him not to be anxious because he’d been hungry for far too long.
“If I disagree, will you let me go?”
Tang Yuxin asked Tong Feng, though she already knew such chances were slim.
As expected, Tong Feng’s face changed slightly.
“I don’t want to hear that.
I just want to know your answer.
I’d exchange all of our Tong family’s medical skills for your Acupuncture Method.
This deal wouldn’t be disadvantageous for you.”
“I don’t need your Tong family’s medical skills,” Tang Yuxin didn’t bother to be tactful with Tong Feng as they were both beyond the point of pleasantries.
“I just want to go home.
I’m not accustomed to staying in other people’s houses.”
Tong Feng’s face turned several shades, from white to green, then from green to red, and finally to a metallic blue.
The rapid changes of expressions was nothing short of a spectacle.
Did the old Master Tong not understand yet?
Tang Yuxin stood up and packed her bag.
“I want to go home.
The Rejuvenation Acupuncture Technique, I will not teach it to any of you.”
She was not sure how much time had passed, an hour, two hours, a day, or two.
She licked her dry and cracked lips, and it tasted salty and sweet.
She even had the impulse to bite open her veins to drink her blood.
She was very thirsty, and she was unaware of how many days had passed without eating or drinking.
She was unsure if she could continue any further, and the only thing keeping her awake was her consciousness.
The door squeaked open, and the sudden bright light stabbed into her eyes in the darkness almost blinding her.
“So, how does it feel?”
Tong Shu walked in, the epitome of a privileged daughter, elegantly dressed, beautiful features, and a naturally refined temperament.
As a pampered little princess who had never suffered hardships, how could she possibly know the pain of starvation and thirst?
How could she tolerate being caged in a corner like a dog, forced to eat, drink, and excrete in such a small place?
“I advise you to confess.”
In Tong Shu’s eyes, her grandfather had done nothing wrong.
Of course, her intentions were also selfish.
As her grandfather had said, by possessing the Rejuvenation Acupuncture Technique, any future complicated diseases could be easily treated.
That would be like holding a miracle cure in their hands, and she would be foolish not to desire it.
So what if the means were dishonorable?
Who in this world hasn’t done a few questionable actions?
Anyway, once they obtained the Rejuvenation Acupuncture Technique, it wouldn’t matter if it was from the Chen family or the Li family, in the future, it would belong to the Tong family, and to her, Tong Shu.
Tang Yuxin closed her eyes and didn’t speak.
She was unwilling to interact with such shameless individuals.
“Tang Yuxin.”
Tong Shu’s originally beautiful face twisted grotesquely.
“Don’t pretend to be dead.”
She reached out and grabbed a handful of Tang Yuxin’s hair.
Tang Yuxin opened her eyes and suddenly smiled at her.
Her gaunt face, soulless eyes, and lips cracked open in several places giving an eerie appearance.
Didn’t she look like a monster from some place?
