Chapter 870 - Jiaojiao, Do It
The little heart trembled and fell to the ground.
However, the little heart knew how to protect itself. Just as it was about to touch the ground, it suddenly slowed down and quietly touched the ground.
Beitang Lie stuck his head in and did not see Chi Jiao, much less notice the little heart’s movements.
“Eh? Strange, where has she gone?” Beitang Lie looked gloomy. He scratched his head and left the room.

Half an hour later, on the top floor of a high-class apartment.
The duplex apartment had a total of two stories. The heater in the biggest bedroom on the second floor was on full blast. Gong Lu was in bed in his pajamas. He looked helplessly at Chi Jiao, who was sitting by the bed taking his pulse.
Yan Zhengchen was even more nervous. He stood beside Chi Jiao and craned his neck to look.
Gong Lu had dark circles under his eyes, but Yan Zhengchen’s dark circles were even worse. His eyes were bloodshot. It could be seen that while Yan Zhengchen had said Gong Lu was not feeling well and had not slept, he also did not sleep the entire night.
“Cough, cough, cough. Didn’t I tell you that I’m fine? But you refused to listen and even asked Jiaojiao to come over.” Gong Lu’s condition was indeed not good. He looked especially weak, and when he spoke, it was as if he couldn’t breathe. He was panting heavily.
Yan Zhengchen disagreed. Seeing that Gong Lu was coughing badly, he poured him a cup of warm water and brought it to his mouth. “You’re fine? You coughed so badly that you couldn’t fall asleep the entire night. You don’t take your health seriously.”
“Brother Lu, Brother Chen is right. Your condition is indeed a little serious.” After taking Gong Lu’s pulse, Chi Jiao lifted a corner of his blanket and stuffed his arm back under.
“Is it serious? What kind of serious? Is it easy to treat?” Yan Zhengchen frowned.
“Brother Chen, don’t worry. It’s the same old illness. His lungs aren’t too good. When the weather gets cold, Brother Lu will easily suffer from a cough if he breathes in too much cold air. Therefore, once it gets cold, Brother Lu will have to stay in warm heated rooms. Brother Lu, you have to be careful when you go out. You will be fine after some acupuncture. But in the future, you have to be careful not to catch a cold.” After Chi Jiao said that, she took out the box she carried with her and took out the silver needles used for acupuncture.
Seeing the bright needles, Gong Lu shrank his neck in rejection. “Do I still have to do it? Is there a need? I’m not cold now. I feel much better.”
Gong Lu hated medicine and injections the most. He was even more resistant to acupuncture. At this moment, he was shamelessly finding excuses and unwilling to cooperate.
Chi Jiao persuaded him patiently. “Brother Lu, don’t worry. I’ll be gentle. I promise it won’t hurt.”
“Jiaojiao, it’s not that I don’t believe you... but you said the same thing the last time. In the end, I cried out in pain,” Gong Lu said with a solemn expression.
Chi Jiao blinked her eyes innocently.
She had no choice. Some acupuncture points were very painful. No matter how gentle Chi Jiao was, those points would definitely hurt. Gong Lu had no choice but to endure it obediently.
Yan Zhengchen didn’t give him a chance to dodge. He got onto the bed and grabbed Gong Lu from behind. He wrapped his arms around his shoulders and secured his arms. “Jiaojiao, do it.”
