Chapter 1553 – Treating Teacher Jiang’s leg
Ten o’clock.
The school celebration has begun.
The outside playground is quite lively, with the sound of people chatting and even firecrackers.
“Oh, they’re setting off firecrackers.”
“Yeah, strange that they’re allowed.”
“They’ve been banned for so many years.”
“It’s the school celebration day. A little noise is understandable.”
“Alright, let’s go down and join the fun.”
“You can’t go down. Your foot is still not quite mobile. You’ll have to use a wheelchair.”
“Oh dear, I forgot about that. Let me help you. Sit tight and don’t move. I’ll take care of you, guaranteed.”
“Are you good at treating injuries?”
“I am. Just watch.”
“I can still walk now, hehe, I’m afraid if you treat me, I won’t be able to walk at all.”
“Hey, you still don’t believe it, huh? Today, I must show off my medical skills.”
Dong Xuebing couldn’t resist the challenge and hurriedly wanted to demonstrate his ability. He looked around for a small chair but couldn’t find one that was low enough. He decided not to search anymore and simply squatted in front of Teacher Jiang, asking her to lift her leg and cross it over, positioning her injured foot in front. Dong Xuebing reached out and took off her high heels with a snap, placing them aside. The black stockings were slightly torn, and the foot was slightly swollen with some redness, but it wasn’t too severe just a few marks.
“I took off your socks.”
“Go ahead.”
“Okay, let me take a look at the injury.”
“You look like a professional.”
“Of course, I’m a professional.”
Boasting a bit, Dong Xuebing, with a somewhat unusual mood, gently pinched her short silk stockings and slowly pulled them down from her ankles, throwing them away. He looked left and right but couldn’t see any injury. However, he did notice that Teacher Jiang had very beautiful feet, quite smooth.
Jiang Min smiled and asked, “Can you treat it?”
“Of course, definitely,” Dong Xuebin assured, “Who do you think you’re talking to? Give me five minutes, and I’ll give you a traditional Chinese medicine massage.”
“Alright, give it a try,” Jiang Min agreed.
Dong Xuebing then grabbed her smooth white foot, held it with both hands, rubbed it in two different directions, and started massaging her.
Ring, ring, ring! Teacher Jiang’s phone rang. It was from the clinic, asking why she hadn’t come over yet. It seemed like the medicine was already prepared, and someone was even pushing a wheelchair to find her. Since Vice Principal Wang had known about Teacher Jiang’s student status, he obviously didn’t dare to neglect her anymore, and he was very concerned about her affairs. The arrangements were very thoughtful. However, after glancing at the student massaging her leg, Jiang Min lowered her head and told them she wouldn’t go for now, as someone was already helping her with treatment. Then she hung up the phone.
Seeing this, Dong Xuebing resumed boasting, “It’s good you didn’t go to the clinic. The school doctors aren’t real doctors; their medical skills are quite limited. Even if they can treat it, it takes ten days or more to recover. It’s hard to say whether their medicine works or if you just naturally heal. Moreover, it’s all Western medicine they spray or apply. All in all, it’s just promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, right? We traditional Chinese medicine massages can achieve the same effect, and under my treatment, it’s even faster.”
Jiang Min took a few deep breaths. “Stop boasting, it’s a bit painful.”
“It’s supposed to be a little painful. It’ll be better soon,” Dong Xuebing actually wanted to massage a bit longer, feeling a bit addicted. Her beautiful feet felt really good.
One time.
Five times.
Ten times.
Finally, Dong Xuebing noticed Jiang Min furrowing her brows again with pain, so he took a deep breath, concentrated his thoughts on her feet. REVERSE!
Instantly, Jiang Min’s brows relaxed. “Hmm.”
“How does it feel?” Dong Xuebing asked.
“My foot felt a bit numb and sore just now, I can’t describe it,” Jiang Min said.
Dong Xuebing chuckled, “That’s good. It means it’s starting to take effect.”
After a few more minutes, Dong Xuebing removed his hands and handed her the high heels.
“How long has it been?” Jiang Min adjusted her glasses.
“It’s already done. I told you it works quickly. Try walking a few steps,” Dong Xuebin encouraged. “Don’t worry, you won’t fall. You’ll be fine.”
Jiang Min looked down and noticed, “Hmm, it’s not swollen anymore.” Then she tried standing up on one foot, holding onto the table with her hands. She tested her right foot on the ground, “Hmm,” feeling no pain. She finally let go of the table and stepped forward, walking steadily. She tried a few more steps.
“Alright,” Dong Xuebing said.
Jiang Min looked at him with some surprise, “You’re quite skilled in traditional Chinese medicine massage.”
“I’m not one to brag. I already told you, didn’t I? You still don’t believe it? Walk around some more,” Dong Xuebing boasted proudly.
Jiang Min paced around the room for a while, finally confirming, “I’m fine now, it doesn’t hurt. You’re quite something.”
“Nothing special.”
“Hehe, I mentioned you’re fat, and you’re already panting.”
“Then let’s go downstairs. The school anniversary program is about to start, and I want to see it.”
“Okay, but let’s wait for me to change clothes first. My pants are dirty, and you can’t go out like that.”
With that, Jiang Min walked towards a closet, opened it, and pulled out a pair of sweatpants. It seemed like there were no other pants available.
Dong Xuebing hesitated, “Then I’ll go out first.”
After he left and closed the door, he waited for about five minutes before Teacher Jiang came out.
She had changed into sportswear, and her high heels had been replaced with sneakers. She looked very comfortable, which impressed Dong Xuebing. However, he remembered something and said, “Later, pretend to sprain your ankle and walk like that. Just act it out. Otherwise, if people know it’s because of my amazing medical skills, they might think you’re trying to extort Dong Quan. It wouldn’t be good for your reputation. So, I think…”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Min looked at him unexpectedly and appreciatively. “Seeing your energetic personality, I’ve been quite worried about how you’ll survive in the system. But hearing you say this, I’m truly relieved. Being able to think so thoroughly shows that you’re already very mature. You know everything and understand everything. There’s nothing more for me to teach you. Hmm, except maybe you tend to boast a bit.”
“Hey, why do you say I boast? Everything I say is true.”
“You saying you don’t know Deputy Mayor He is also true.”
“It is true. I’ve only seen him twice on TV. I’m not even sure what his full name is; I just know his last name is He.”
“Then how can you say he knows you?”
“My reputation precedes me; he must know me.”
“Alright, let’s just go downstairs.”
Dong Xuebing: “……”
