Chapter 353: I’m Not Even Afraid, What Are You Worried About?

After sending the message to Zhao Xiao'an, Yang Xiaofu didn't expect a reply. She tossed her phone aside and forced herself to sleep.

When she woke up the next day, she saw a reply from Zhao Xiao'an on her phone and quickly opened it.

But the content of Zhao Xiao'an's message was very disappointing.

"You sisters are something else!"

"So ungrateful!" Yang Xiaofu resentfully deleted the message. She didn't contact Zhao Xiao'an again, nor did she bother Wang Chenning anymore.

-----------------

As Wang Chenning was leaving Yang Xiaofu's place, he saw a message from Wu Ziyue on his phone and went to meet them.

They had been on another mission for the past two days, but the women were back today.

"Good thing I have great stamina and sleep like a rock. Otherwise, with all these late nights, I'd be done for sooner or later!" Wang Chenning said, grinning teasingly when he saw Lei Danyun. Then he asked her, "After a few conditioning sessions, have you noticed any particular changes?"

"The fact that I'm still asking for your help is the best proof of its effect!" Although Lei Danyun kept a straight face, her tone wasn't as stiff as before. "The results of your conditioning are unexpectedly good. My physical coordination has improved significantly, and my attack speed seems to have increased a bit too. I feel younger overall!"

"I hope all my efforts will be rewarded," Wang Chenning said, looking at Lei Danyun with a smile. "I'll help you with anything I can. And I hope you'll do your best to help me when I need it."

"That's not a problem!" Lei Danyun readily agreed.

"There's something I want to remind you of," Wang Chenning said seriously as he prepared to perform acupuncture on Lei Danyun. "There's a difference between a girl and a woman. After becoming a woman, some aspects see a significant improvement. I'm not teasing you; it's a real thing. You might know that when a girl becomes a woman, her hormone secretion becomes more balanced. A lot of girls who have acne get smooth skin after they get a boyfriend. While this physiological change isn't a qualitative transformation, it's a major boost to a person's overall condition. This is just for your reference, I don't mean anything else by it!"

"You're just saying you want my body, aren't you!" Lei Danyun said with a sneer. "If you're interested, just say it. Don't beat around the bush like this!"

Wang Chenning looked unconcerned. "Believe it or not, it's up to you. Besides, I'm not interested in you. Getting intimately involved with a woman like you wouldn't be a blessing, it would be a huge hassle. Don't you think so yourself?"

Seeing Lei Danyun's angry expression, Wang Chenning stopped teasing her and gestured for her to lie down and prepare for the acupuncture treatment.

As he began inserting the needles, he added, "You know, I don't lack for female company. If I wanted to, I could go a whole month without seeing the same woman twice. No one would dare mess with a woman like you, and that includes me. So, don't overthink it. What I said earlier was honestly just stating a fact."

Lei Danyun remained silent, but the look on her face wasn't as cold as before.

"Actually, having a fuller figure won't hinder your agility," Wang Chenning brought up another point mid-treatment. "Your uniform and gear can easily compensate for it. So, when I treat you, I'll also try to regulate your hormone secretion. After a while, you'll find your figure getting better and better. Anyway, if you're satisfied with yourself, you can just... test me out in a suitable manner!"

"Thank you!" At the end of the day, Lei Danyun was still a woman, unable to resist the temptation Wang Chenning offered.

While performing acupuncture on Wu Ziyue, Wang Chenning said many similar things.

Wu Ziyue's mindset was different from Lei Danyun's; she was immediately tempted.

"Then I want to try it!" she said, a little shyly. "If it can really improve my reaction time and physical coordination, then I'm willing to pay a certain price."

"Then you should hurry up and find a boyfriend!" Wang Chenning said, chuckling as he looked at Wu Ziyue's flushed face. "Date for a year or two, and then you can get married."

"I haven't thought about that!" Wu Ziyue closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths, then opened them wide to look at Wang Chenning. "You've helped me so much. I'm willing to thank you in any way possible!"

But Wang Chenning just shook his head. "But I'm not willing to accept thanks from a patient in that way."

"Is it because you look down on me?" Wu Ziyue was instantly disappointed.

"No!" Wang Chenning shook his head. "If I really accepted your thanks in that manner, you'd definitely feel it was unfair later on, and you might even come to hate me. I don't want that, so don't say these things to me again."

"Alright," Wu Ziyue seemed to understand Wang Chenning's meaning. "I won't mention it again."

After the treatment ended, Wu Ziyue got up and stood before Wang Chenning. "Is my figure getting better and better?"

"Of course!" Wang Chenning said proudly. "If I couldn't even do that, why would so many people revere me?"

Wu Ziyue asked again, "If I were to use a honey trap, how many men do you think could resist my charms?"

Wang Chenning stroked his chin, carefully appraising Wu Ziyue's face and figure, then shook his head. "Almost none."

"Then what if I used a honey trap on you?" Wu Ziyue's pretty face turned slightly red again. "Could you resist?"

Wang Chenning looked at Wu Ziyue with a grin. "If I don't want to resist, I can't. But if I do want to resist, I can."

Wu Ziyue lowered her head, then immediately looked up again. "If I really retire one day, will you take me in?"

"Of course!" Wang Chenning nodded. "If you retire, I'll definitely urge you to come work by my side. I'll put you in charge of security for me and the important people around me; all the security personnel will be under your command. Mhmm, you heard that right. I'd be entrusting my life to you."

"If I really do retire, then I'll come work for you," Wu Ziyue said with a soft nod.

-----------------

Early the next morning, Wang Chenning received a message from Li Yanxian: "I'm planning to come to Huaxia next week. You're taking me to Chang'an!"

"The best time to visit Chang'an is mid-April!" Wang Chenning didn't want Li Yanxian joining the crowd right now. "I have to take a trip to Jiangnan at the end of March and beginning of April."

"Then I'll go to Jiangnan with you. I want to see Guangling in the misty blossoms of spring, listen to the bells of Hanshan Temple, and see the green willows sprouting by the white-sanded dikes."

Wang Chenning instantly felt a headache coming on and had no choice but to tell her the truth: "I'm going to Jiangnan with Zhao Xiao'an!"

"Then I'll come with my aunt!" Li Yanxian had no intention of giving up. "The more the merrier, right?"

"Fine, come if you want!" Wang Chenning was defeated by Li Yanxian. "As long as you don't mind, it's fine!"

Li Yanxian sent another message: "I plan to stay in Huaxia for one or two months this time. Either way, you have to take me to Chang'an alone at least once. You have to keep the promises you make me!"

"Just the two of us, an unmarried man and woman... aren't you afraid something might happen?"

"I'm not afraid, so what are you worried about?" Li Yanxian replied, adding a few mischievous emojis at the end.
