Chapter 180
To put it simply, every time Lily used the 13 Needles of Life, she would deplete her own vital energy. She would need a long time to recover after that. So, she wouldnât use the 13 Needles of Life unless it was absolutely necessary.
Lily took a deep breath. Her clothes had become completely drenched in sweat. Without pausing for a moment, she continued applying the needles. She couldnât stop once she started the technique. She had to insert all 108 silver needles into the patient.
Finally, Lily finished administering the last needle.
Melanie, who had been pronounced dead, suddenly opened her eyes. Shaun, Daniel, and Neil widened their eyes in disbebet.
After a long while, Shaun shouted excitedly, âSheâs alive⦠Sheâs alive!
Lily had overexerted herself severely. She struggled to hold herself up. Her voice lacked its usual firmness and authority. She sounded merk and gentle now. about the treatment process.â
Shaun nodded hastily. âDonât worry. Weâll keep it confidentialâ
Loid looked at her and noticed how pale her face was. He frowned and asked again, âAre you really okay?
Lily looked up, her lips pale. She smiled weakly and said, âIâm fine, but donât let anyone disturb me for the next few days. Donât call for a doctor.â
Right after she said those words, Lily faded into unconsciousness and collapsed. The moment she fell, Loid stepped forward and caught her in his arms.
Without any hesitation, he turned to Shaun and said, âYou guys handle things here. Iâll deal with the rest later when Iâm back.â
Loid took Lily back to Anmer Heights. He carried her out of the car in his arms. As their bodies were close to each other, he could smell the faint scent of herbs Lily gave oft
He laid Lily on the bed and tucked her in. Only then did he sit by the bedside and observe her.
Her skin was very fair, and her features seemed to be meticulously carved by the maker. She was stunningly beautiful. With her eyes closed, she looked serene; her long lashes quivered slightly. Her rosy lips were sexy and enticing.
Suddenly, Lily jolted and curled up as if she wanted to wrap herself in a safe cocoon.
At this moment, Lily was devoid of her usual aggressiveness and arrogance. She seemed somewhat fragile, malding Loid yearn to protect her.
Loidâs slender fingers gently brushed aside the strands of hair covering her face, his movements gentle. âFrom now on, Iâll protect you.â
Lily slept for three days and three nights straight.
Melanieâs resurrection caused a sensation in the hospital. Doctors couldnât believe what they saw. They conducted a comprehensive examination on her.
Although some of her organs had not fully recovered, there would be no problems as long as she rested well. Moreover, several of her broken bones had miraculously healed
Many doctors tried desperately to get Lilyâs contact information from Melanie, but she refused them all. Shaun and Daniel interrogated the culprit on the same day, but the culprit seemed to know what awaited him and committed suicide,
Melanie and Stefan had visited Lilly several times, but she was always asleep.
On the third day, Melanie and Stefan came to see Lily again. Since she hadnât woken up yet, Melanie started to worry. âSheâs been sleeping for three days. Could something be wrong? Shouldnât we get a doctor to check on her?â
Loid glanced at her and said, âShe doesnât want me to call for a doctor
âBut we canât let her keep sleeping like this. What if thereâs something wrong with her?â Melanie fretted. âShe ended up in this state because she tried to save me. If she doesnât wake up, I will blame myself for the rest of my life.â
own body. Nothing bad will happen
Stefan patted her shoulder reassuringly. âDonât worry too much. Since Lily said not to find a doctor, it means sheâs confident about her ow
âBut.â
Loid was getting annoyed and didnât want to hear her endless worrying. He said coolly, âGo home and wait. Donât disturb her rest.â
âLâ Melanie glared at him. âI didnât come to see you.â
After that, she ignored Loid and sat aside quietly, waiting for Lily to wake up.
