Chapter 240: Chapter 240: This Is the Current Number One Beauty of South Korea

"That was Li Yanxian, my niece!" Li Fuzhen said to Wang Chenning with a smile, watching the car speed off into the distance. "She’s pretty, isn’t she?"

"She’s very good-looking," Wang Chenning replied with a grin. "But I think you must have been even more beautiful back in your youth, Miss Li."

"I wasn’t as beautiful as her!" Li Fuzhen was instantly delighted. "Besides, I’m old now!"

"You don’t look old at all, Miss Li!" Wang Chenning said, tilting his head to study Li Fuzhen. "You’ve taken great care of yourself. But with a bit more specialized care, you could look even younger."

Li Fuzhen immediately caught the hidden meaning in Wang Chenning’s words. However, with the driver up front, she didn’t pursue the topic.

"Many people call Yanxian the number one beauty in South Korea. She’s extremely popular. She’s also quite interested in Huaxia and was thinking of visiting this summer!" Li Fuzhen gave Wang Chenning a knowing look. "You’re around the same age, so I figured you’d have plenty to talk about. That’s why I invited her to dinner. I didn’t expect something to come up at the last minute!"

Li Fuzhen’s words made Wang Chenning’s mind jump to conspiracy theories.

From the files Luo Yuqing had given him, Wang Chenning knew that Li Fuzhen didn’t have a good relationship with her brother, Li Zairong. Their fight for power had created a tense rift between them. Based on that, he inferred that Li Fuzhen’s relationship with her niece, Li Yanxian, probably wasn’t great either.

’Was she trying to pimp her niece out to him?’

In any case, Wang Chenning felt there was more to it than Li Fuzhen simply wanting them to meet.

Li Fuzhen’s mansion was located in an upscale villa community on the banks of the Han River. Her property was enormous, especially the garden, which was over a thousand square meters.

The driver parked at the villa’s entrance, and Wang Chenning followed Li Fuzhen out of the car.

The March air still held a chill, but many of the flowers in the garden were already in bloom.

"Show me your garden!" Wang Chenning said, not intending to go inside just yet.

Li Fuzhen understood and led him for a stroll through the garden.

Once they were alone, Li Fuzhen returned to their earlier topic. "The last few years have been rough. I’ve become so worn out, I have a lot of gray hairs, and I’m even showing signs of menopause. I heard that your medical skills are superb, Mr. Wang, and that you specialize in restorative treatments, so I took the liberty of asking for your help. I will reward you generously!"

Wang Chenning stopped and stood face-to-face with Li Fuzhen. After looking her up and down for a moment, he smiled. "That’s no problem at all. I felt a connection with you the moment we met, Miss Li. And I’m not just boasting—if you accept my treatments for a while, in three months at most, you’ll be able to stand next to your niece and there won’t be a noticeable age gap between you."

Wang Chenning wasn’t just talking big. Li Fuzhen had good fundamentals—neither her figure nor her features had lost their shape. After some careful treatment, she could easily look seventeen or eighteen years younger.

With the right clothes and makeup, it was entirely possible for people to mistake her for a woman in her early thirties.

Li Fuzhen was overjoyed. "Thank you so much, Mr. Wang!"

They walked to a gazebo and sat down. Wang Chenning gestured for Li Fuzhen to give him her wrist so he could take her pulse.

After carefully taking Li Fuzhen’s pulse and performing a few other simple checks, Wang Chenning gave his initial diagnosis. "You often experience an aversion to cold, cold limbs, purplish lips, a pale tongue with a white coating and teeth marks along the edge, a feverish sensation in your palms and soles, hot flashes, night sweats, irritability, and dizziness. You have deficiencies in both kidney yin and yang. This is likely why you’ve sought treatment from so many doctors without any lasting success, isn’t it?"

The fact that Wang Chenning could reach this conclusion after such a brief examination deepened Li Fuzhen’s trust in him.

She had consulted several of the country’s top traditional medicine masters, and their diagnoses had been more or less the same. However, their treatment plans hadn’t yielded any significant results.

She hoped Wang Chenning could give her a pleasant surprise.

"Let’s do this," Wang Chenning said after a moment of thought. "Before dinner, I’ll perform some acupuncture on the acupoints on your head so you can feel a change. Then, after we eat and you’ve rested for a bit, I’ll give you a full-body treatment. I’m sure you’ll feel the difference. After that, you’ll take the medicine I prescribe for two days, and we’ll see the final results."

"Alright," Li Fuzhen agreed after a brief pause.

The two didn’t linger in the garden. Li Fuzhen led Wang Chenning into the house.

Two maids were inside the house. When they saw them enter, they hurried over to greet them respectfully.

After giving a few brief instructions, Li Fuzhen led Wang Chenning upstairs to her bedroom on the second floor.

"Should I take a shower first?" Li Fuzhen asked Wang Chenning.

"Not just yet. If you’re willing to have the full-body treatment after dinner, you can shower then," Wang Chenning said with a grin. "But it’s fine even if you don’t. I’m sure you’re very clean, Miss Li. It won’t affect the treatment at all!"

Li Fuzhen didn’t ask any questions and lay down on the bed as instructed.

After some simple preparations, Wang Chenning began to perform acupuncture on the points on her head.

Wang Chenning had barely inserted the first needle when Li Fuzhen couldn’t help but exclaim in shock. She told him she could feel a warm, pleasant current flowing through her head. It felt magical.

Fearing she might move, Wang Chenning instructed her again, "Don’t talk, and don’t move your head. No matter what you feel, stay completely still."

In the end, Li Fuzhen did as she was told.

Wang Chenning placed needles in over a dozen acupoints on her head and face. The process took about an hour.

By the time the acupuncture session was over, Li Fuzhen’s face was beaded with sweat.

"Go wash your face, then come back and tell me how you feel." After removing the needles, Wang Chenning gently massaged her face before sending her to wash up.

"That felt incredible! So much better than a facial!" Li Fuzhen said the moment she sat up, then excitedly rushed into the bathroom to wash her face.

The moment she entered the bathroom, she let out a cry of surprise. She poked her head back out and said to Wang Chenning, "Mr. Wang, I feel like I’ve suddenly gotten younger! My skin is so much firmer, the bags under my eyes are gone, and my dark circles have vanished!"

Wang Chenning just smiled, telling her to finish washing up but not to put on any makeup, as he wanted to see the full effect in a moment.

About ten minutes later, Li Fuzhen emerged from the bathroom, her face completely bare.

She switched on all the lights in the room and sat down obediently in front of Wang Chenning, letting him inspect the results of the treatment.

When Wang Chenning had first seen her, Li Fuzhen had been wearing exquisite makeup that gave her a certain charm. Now, without any makeup, she looked even more beautiful and much younger. Her skin was fairer and no longer seemed so slack. Her whole aura radiated vitality, as if she were a completely different person.

After examining her, Wang Chenning said with a wide smile, "I used my proprietary acupuncture technique to clear the meridians in your face. It looks like the effect is quite remarkable! If one treatment can do this, just imagine what a few more will accomplish."

"I’ll have to trouble you to continue my treatments, Mr. Wang. I will be sure to reward you handsomely!"

Wang Chenning’s smile grew even wider. ’Looks like my medical skills are better than anything for getting a woman hooked!’
