“You… Don’t bluff. I’m not afraid.” Wang Jun quietly took a step back. Although he didn’t believe Su Jinyue’s words, it was definitely uncomfortable to be stabbed by a needle.
“Then, let’s give it a go.” Su Jinyue’s body moved. A flash of silver streaked in her hand and the silver needle pierced Wang Jun’s waist at lightning speed.
In her past life, Yihan had taught her a set of self-defense techniques, which was more than enough to deal with people like Wang Jun, who lacked the strength to even truss a chicken
“Hahahaha…” Wang Jun laughed hysterically. Now, he knew that Su Jinyue was not kidding with him.
Wang Jun laughed till his stomach hurt, but he just couldn’t stop. “I was wrong… Hahaha… Let me off… Hahaha…” At this moment, he really regretted it. As long as Su Jinyue let him off, he would leave immediately. Although Su Jinyue was beautiful, he couldn’t handle her.
Big Sister Liu was dumbfounded. When she heard Wang Jun begging for mercy, she quickly pleaded on his behalf, “Dr. Su, let him off. I’m at fault for the matter this time. If you want to blame someone, you can blame me.” If something happened to Wang Jun, how was she going to explain to her aunt.
With a swift move of her hand, Su Jinyue pulled out the silver needle from Wang Jun’s waist and walked away.
Wang Jun slumped weakly onto the ground, with a trace of fear in his eyes. He would never ever find a doctor to marry, even if it meant that he couldn’t get a wife in his entire life. It was just too horrifying.
“Wang Jun, are you okay?” Big Sister Liu stretched out her hand to help Wang Jun get up off the ground. Had she known that Dr. Su was so intimidating, she wouldn’t have asked her younger cousin to have a blind date with her.
“I don’t need you to help me up!” Wang Jun furiously brushed Big Sister Liu’s hand away. “Both our families shall not interact with each other in the future anymore.” After saying this, he stomped out without looking back. He had been fooled this time. Not only did he not reap any benefits, but he had also nearly died from laughing.
“Wang Jun!” Big Sister Liu caught up to him and tried to explain but after taking two steps, she halted in her tracks. She knew her younger cousin’s temper very well. She had better wait till his anger dissipated before going to his house to explain to him.
Letting out a long sigh, Big Sister Liu shook her head with a bitter expression on her face. “What’s all this!” Not only was she now the bad guy, but she even ended up offending both parties.
Strolling along the footpath between the paddy fields and smelling the fragrance of the wild flowers, while watching the villagers busying about in the field, Su Jinyue’s mouth couldn’t help but turn up in a nostalgic smile. It had been a long time since she had seen such a scene.
She could still remember that when she was young, a group of them children would often play hide and seek in the fields after school; trampling all over the barley in the fields, and scuttling away after being discovered and chased by the adults.
As she reminisced about the past, Su Jinyue couldn’t help but chuckle. At that time, she was also a mischievous brat.
“Dr. Su, has your injury healed?” Uncle Li, who was sowing barley seeds, walked over when he saw Su Jinyue. The villagers in Shangxin Village would all go to Dr. Xu’s clinic to see a doctor when they were sick, so they knew Su Jinyue very well.
Su Jinyue smiled and nodded, “I’m all healed.”
“In the future, you must be careful when you go and gather herbs. It’s better to stay away from places like the cliffs,” Uncle Li advised out of concern.
“I’ll do that. Thank you, Uncle Li.” Su Jinyue thanked him.
“Dr. Su, come here! Aunty Wu has been bitten by a snake.” An anxious cry rang out from a distance.
When she heard that, Su Jinyue hurriedly ran towards the direction where Aunty Wu was. She remembered that Aunty Wu had also been bitten by a snake in her previous life.
However, as she was not rescued in the nick of time, she couldn’t be saved in the end. It was just that so much time had passed since then that she had long forgotten the exact time that Aunty Wu was bitten. She did not expect to come across this incident, by coincidence, in this life.
