Chapter 515: Using the Body to Detoxify!

"Lin Yuan, just hold on a little longer, we'll be there right away!" Sun Weiwei pressed the accelerator and gently soothed him.

But the Tesla had just driven out for a few minutes when it was blocked at the intersection by a long line of traffic ahead.

As a first‑tier city, Hangcheng's streets remained packed with traffic even after nine p. m.

At nine p. m., the "996" programmers of internet companies had just gotten off work.

So Hangcheng's main thoroughfares were still gridlocked.

"Damn it!" Sun Weiwei slammed the steering wheel in frustration as she watched the immobile traffic.

The numbers on the dashboard ticked by second by second…

But the traffic ahead didn't move at all.

Half an hour passed, and the car had crept forward less than two hundred meters.

Sun Weiwei glanced at the rear seat through the rearview mirror…

In the back seat, Lin Yuan's condition worsened; his originally rapid breathing grew increasingly heavy.

His chest heaved violently, and his whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.

The back of his black suit was soaked through with sweat, clinging tightly to his skin.

"Water…" Lin Yuan forced out a single word from his throat, his voice hoarse and barely audible.

Sun Licheng quickly grabbed a bottle of mineral water from the car's fridge, twisted off the cap, and handed it to the back seat.

Lin Yuan took it trembling, but lacked the strength to bring it to his mouth, spilling water all over himself.

The cold liquid on his skin only made him shiver, while the internal heat flared even more.

After another ten or so minutes, the traffic finally began to creep forward.

Sun Weiwei pressed the accelerator, her eyes fixed on the road ahead.

Whenever there was a gap, she decisively changed lanes…

…

What should have been a twenty‑minute drive became, thanks to the jam, over an hour of crawling for Sun Weiwei.

Only then did she finally arrive at the building where Lin Yuan lived, Shidai Gongyu Lou.

As soon as the car stopped, she flung the door open and jumped out, not even bothering to shut it.

Lin Yuan in the back gave no response, his breathing only growing heavier.

He could clearly smell the faint scent of Sun Weiwei lingering in the car.

That scent acted like a catalyst, making Lin Yuan's internal heat blaze even hotter.

Lin Yuan raised his hand again to press his own acupuncture point, but his fingertips were already trembling.

This time, he simply couldn't suppress it.

Lin Yuan felt as if his whole body were about to burst into flames.

Sun Licheng also hurried forward, and the two of them lifted Lin Yuan, one on each side.

By then Lin Yuan had nearly lost consciousness, his full weight pressing onto them.

He had been poisoned by a strong aphrodisiac; if not detoxified immediately, his blood vessels would rupture from soaring blood pressure.

Every step Lin Yuan took was excruciatingly difficult.

Sun Weiwei gritted her teeth, half‑dragging, half‑supporting Lin Yuan into the elevator…

As Lin Yuan weakly reached out to press the "18th floor" button, his fingers still trembled uncontrollably.

During the elevator's ascent, Lin Yuan leaned against the cabin wall…

His head lolled to one side, his eyes unfocused.

Lin Yuan kept murmuring between breaths: "Acupuncture… study… silver‑gray box…"

Sun Weiwei nodded quickly.

With a "ding," the elevator doors opened.

Sun Weiwei supported Lin Yuan as they walked to room 3001.

Lin Yuan weakly gave the code.

Sun Weiwei unlocked the password lock and, after some effort, opened the door.

A faint scent of traditional Chinese medicine wafted over them.

"Dad, help him onto the sofa!" Sun Weiwei instructed, then hurried toward the study.

Following Lin Yuan's hint, she quickly found the silver‑gray acupuncture box.

Opening it, she saw 108 needles of varying lengths neatly arranged, their shafts gleaming with a cold light.

By the time she carried the acupuncture box back to the living room, Lin Yuan had already slid off the sofa.

Lin Yuan curled up on the floor, clutching his head with both hands, his trembling worsening.

Sun Licheng crouched nearby, also feeling anxious.

After all, Lin Yuan had just saved their lives.

"Silver needle!" Lin Yuan whispered weakly.

His voice was hoarse. He struggled to lift one hand and reach toward Sun Weiwei.

Sun Weiwei didn't dare delay, quickly handing the acupuncture box to him.

Lin Yuan strained to open his eyelids, his trembling fingers picking up a silver needle from the box.

Drawing on years of acupuncture experience, he accurately aimed the needle at the Hegu point on his thumb web and inserted it.

But as soon as the needle entered the point, he gasped sharply…

The expected numbing sensation never came.

Lin Yuan's internal heat… instead flared up like gasoline that had been ignited, burning even hotter.

Lin Yuan's heart gave a sudden thump.

Oh no, this, this feeling, not good?

The poison has already begun to permeate his whole body.

Lin Yuan, unwilling to give up, took out three more Silver Needles in succession, inserting them respectively into the Crooked Pool, Inner Pass, and Leg Three Miles points.

Each time he inserted a needle, it was steady, accurate, and ruthless.

But each insertion had no effect whatsoever, like a stone sinking into the sea, not even a trace of relief.

Lin Yuan weakly loosened his grip; the Silver Needles scattered onto the floor, emitting a crisp sound……

Lin Yuan's complexion%……had already turned deathly pale and unsightly.

That was an uncontrollable flame, gradually heating up.

Lin Yuan's complexion was ugly to the extreme.

"How is it? Can you detoxify?" Sun Weiwei asked anxiously and nervously.

Sun Weiwei grew increasingly worried!

"The medicinal effect……has already seeped into the blood……" Lin Yuan panted heavily, his chest heaved violently, he shook his head trembling.

Swish~! Upon hearing those words, Sun Weiwei's pretty face changed!

Sun Weiwei panicked and asked, "Then does traditional Chinese acupuncture not work either??"

Lin Yuan shook his head and said, "Just now the traffic delay was too long……the poison has completely permeated the bloodstream; acupuncture can't suppress it anymore."

Lin Yuan's cheeks%……were red enough to almost drip blood.,

The reason in his eyes……was quickly fading, replaced by uncontrollable desire.

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, Sun Weiwei completely panicked.

"It's all my fault! If I had thought of a detour earlier, if I hadn't made you wait so long……"

Sun Weiwei covered her face and burst into tears, tears sliding down her exquisite pretty face.

"What should we do now? Let's try sending you to the hospital again; maybe there's a way!" Sun Weiwei urged anxiously.

Lin Yuan abruptly lifted his head……

A flash of scarlet crossed Lin Yuan's eyes as he stared fixedly at Sun Weiwei……

Under the light, a small patch of Sun Weiwei's silk dress was dampened by tears, outlining a delicate silhouette.

Her red-rimmed eye sockets resembled those of a startled fawn……

This caused Lin Yuan's inner lust to surge instantly.

Lin Yuan bit the tip of his tongue hard; the intense pain let him regain a shred of reason.

Lin Yuan waved his hand forcefully: "Get out! Take your dad and leave right away!"

Sun Weiwei's tears instantly broke free; she reached out to touch his arm, but he swiftly dodged away.

"If I leave, who will care for you?" Sun Weiwei stubbornly shook her head.

She pulled out her phone……quickly searched for "consequences of not detoxifying the aphrodisiac".

The content that popped up on the screen made Sun Weiwei's face turn deathly pale instantly……

"The potency of the aphrodisiac is strong; if not detoxified long-term, it can cause blood pressure to spike, blood vessels to rupture, and in severe cases endanger life."……

On Baidu, a line about the aftereffects of poisoning and detoxification appeared……

"Lin Yuan, if your aphrodisiac isn't detoxified……what will happen?" Sun Weiwei's voice trembled with tears; she couldn't believe the screen's content.

Lin Yuan turned his face away, unwilling to answer, merely repeating: "Leave quickly!"

Sun Weiwei's finger scrolling the phone suddenly stalled; a inconspicuous piece of popular science content entered her view: 【Traditional Chinese medicine holds that the essence of an aphrodisiac is 'excess yang'; resolving it requires 'yin-yang balance', the most direct method being……sexual intercourse……playing cards.】

Play……play cards?

Sun Weiwei froze for a moment, then reacted……her cheeks instantly turned red enough to draw blood.

Sun Weiwei lifted her head to look at Lin Yuan, her heart pounding wildly.

Meanwhile, Lin Yuan……had already slid down while leaning against the wall.

He pressed both hands hard against his lower abdomen; veins bulged on his forehead, and the scarlet and struggle in his eyes almost tore him apart.

Lin Yuan's mouth still muttered intermittently: "Leave……quickly get away……"

Beside him, Sun Licheng had long run out of ideas.

Sun Licheng watched Lin Yuan on the verge of losing control……and glanced at his daughter's flushed face and phone screen.

Sun Licheng's complexion alternated between green and white.

He stepped forward quickly, grabbed his daughter Sun Weiwei's wrist, and pulled her toward the door: "Weiwei, come on! He's about to lose control; staying here is too dangerous!"

"Let go of me!" Sun Weiwei violently shook off her father's hand, her voice tearful yet unusually firm: "He just risked his life to save us father and daughter; now he's in danger—how can we ignore him? Do you still have a conscience?"

"I have no conscience?" Sun Licheng was choked by the question.

Sun Licheng pointed at Lin Yuan, who was painfully struggling on the ground, stamping his feet in anxiety: "Then what do you suggest we do? He himself said acupuncture can't detoxify; are we really supposed to do what the phone said……This is outrageous!"

Sun Licheng's words hit Sun Weiwei's heart like a hammer.

She watched Lin Yuan's face twisted from endurance, and recalled how, just earlier in the club, he had shielded her, his back sliced open by a saber.

Sun Weiwei clenched her teeth, she did not hesitate!

She was already Lin Yuan's woman; therefore, she could not stand by and watch her man come to harm!

Sun Weiwei's eyes suddenly became extremely resolute.

She shoved her father, who kept chattering, aside.

Father Sun Licheng staggered back two steps and collided with the tea table.

"Crazy girl, what are you doing?" Sun Licheng shouted angrily.

Sun Weiwei rushed forward to Lin Yuan's front, squatted down, and with force pulled him up from the ground……

Lin Yuan's body was hot and heavy, almost completely leaning on her.

His hot breath sprayed onto her neck.

Sun Weiwei's whole body went numb, yet she gritted her teeth and didn't let go.

"Lin Yuan, hold on." she whispered.

Sun Weiwei half-supported, half-dragged the cool Lin Yuan toward the bedroom.

"Weiwei, what are you doing?!" Sun Licheng was a bit dazed, suspiciously looking at his daughter? He didn't understand what his daughter wanted to do.

But when Sun Weiwei helped Lin Yuan walk into the bedroom……

Sun Licheng finally reacted!

Sun Licheng hurried forward, reaching out to pull his daughter, "Are you crazy? Stop quickly!"

But his voice was still a step late.

Sun Weiwei had already brought Lin Yuan into the bedroom……

Before his father lunged over……

Sun Weiwei slammed the door shut with a "Bang!"

Immediately after, the lock's "click" sounded clearly……

Sun Weiwei, inside, locked the door from the inside.

"Weiwei! Open the door! Listen to Dad!" Sun Licheng rushed to the door, pounding hard on the panel!

Sun Licheng's voice full of anxiety and panic: "This kind of thing must not be impulsive! Let's think of another way; if really necessary, we can risk going to the hospital and try."

The room behind the door was silent, only Sun Licheng's urgent knocking and his shouts echoing in the living room.

Outside, Sun Licheng pounded the door with force, his fingers turning red from the blows, yet the door remained unmoving, and no response came from inside.
