The silver needles had been inserted for almost half an hour, any longer and it would be harmful to the body.
Baili Xia was out of options, so she stood up and removed the needles one by one.
If she didn't speak now, she feared she'd lose her chance forever.
"Grandfather..." she called softly.
Ning Anran immediately turned his gaze to the elder lying on the bed.
"Hmm?" The old man responded gently, waking from his peaceful slumber.
"Finished?" He opened his bleary eyes and looked at Baili Xia with a calm voice.
Baili Xia nodded, helping him to sit up in bed.
"The residual toxins in your body will be partially expelled, but not entirely cleared. These days, it's best to give you acupuncture daily for better results."
The old man gently nodded, his words carrying a hint of resignation.
"I just don't know if there's enough time. When possible, I'll ask Feng Gang to reach you."
"Okay." Baili Xia paused and added.
