But then , looking at Sloane's tiny , bean - sprout - like figure , he felt a bit less human . She was still just an 18 years old kid . What a sin ! " Not bad , you're recovering well . " After looking long enough , Sloane let go of him and said , " In that case , I'll start giving you acupuncture and detox today . " Sloane spread the needles out on the table . Andrew looked at the dozens of needles , varying in length , and immediately felt his scalp tingle . Lucas glanced at the needles , his expression unchanged . He nodded slightly . " What do you need me to do ? " " Take your clothes off and lie down . " Sloane's words were blunt , and Andrew didn't know what to say anymore . But over there , Lucas had already stood up from his wheelchair , starting to unbutton his shirt . His movements were smooth , without a hint of hesitation or awkwardness . Andrew quickly swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth . Since the person involved had no objections , there was no reason for him to intervene . Seeing Lucas already taking off his outer pants , ready to remove his undergarments , Sloane turned her head just in time . She blinked and watched Lucas ' movements , yet showed no signs of embarrassment or awkwardness . Unhurriedly , she said , " You don't need to take this off . " She thought she was quite humane , at least leaving Lucas some dignity . Upon hearing this , Lucas paused , then lightly grunted in acknowledgment before stopping the action of removing his clothes . He kept his undergarments on and neatly lay down on the bed , waiting quietly for Sloane to begin the acupuncture . Sloane turned back after preparing the needles and found herself facing a captivating scene . Lucas lay on the bed , his back muscles clearly defined , strong yet smooth , exuding a sense of power . His waist appeared exceptionally slender , yet radiated a quiet strength . Moving downward , his firm , rounded hips were visible under the clothing , showing the perfect curve . His long , toned legs were casually stretched out , making the whole scene even more casually seductive . For a moment , Sloane was lost in thought , wondering how the women in Stonebridge , who were always eager to be close to him , would have reacted . They'd probably want to pounce on him . She quickly snapped back to reality , pushing those distracting the ts aside . She walked to the bedside and placed the disinfected needles beside her . Leaning slightly forward , her delicate fingers gently rested on Lucas ' back . She pressed on a few key acupoints , speaking softly , " Your body's toxins have accumulated for too long , causing some stagnation in your blood circulation . I'll be using the acupuncture to clear it . The first session will hurt . " Lucas let out a soft , steady " Mm , " his voice low and composed , " Go ahead , I can handle it ." Compared to the pain he endured every night before , this little bit of pain was Sloane's gaze sharpened , and she fully focused on the upcoming acupuncture . As the needles were inserted , Lucas ' back muscles tensed slightly , but he remained silent , enduring the sharp sting Sloane's technique was skilled , one needle after another went into the acupoints , methodically . Before long , Lucas ' back was covered with needles . PP Andrew stood by , his forehead sweating with anxiety . His fists were clenched tightly , his eyes fixed on Sloane's every move , not daring to breathe loudly . He was worried Lucas wouldn't be able to withstand the pain and was also doubtful about Sloane's medical skills . After all , she was only 18 , and he wondered if she could truly cure Lucas ' condition . Send Gifts 2.4K Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
