Chapter 87 Kate And Her Superhero
Kate tried pacing herself as her breathing suddenly quickened. She felt her face burn.
This very moment, she felt her heartbeat tripled from the usual speed. She closed her eyes and darednot to even peek.
Alex, on the other hand, was calm. His eyes were fixed only on where they needed to be, focused onthe wound. He found the pressure points and pressed them a few times. The bleeding miraculouslystopped.
“Missy! This gentleman is indeed a genius! Your wound has stopped bleeding! Look!” the waitressexclaimed excitedly with awe.
Kate was surprised to hear that and quickly opened her eyes. Indeed, the wound that was bleedingprofusely just a short while ago had stopped bleeding!
Looking up straight at Alex, she could not see his facial expression behind the mask.
She could only see his clear eyes focused on the task at hand, totally ignoring her beauty.
She felt a little guilty for even raising an immature ruckus and doubting the hero that saved her justnow.novelbin
All this time, Alex’s right palm was directly pressing against her thigh’s acupuncture points as heutilized his skills to seal off the affected points.
Simultaneously, he was channeling his body’s inner energy through his palm onto the wound.
This is a special healing technique utilizing inner energy – which was one of his hidden skills.
This skill was picked up by Alex from reading the Nine Heaven Scrolls and practicing the instructionstherein. Even though it was just a rudimentary skill, it was sufficient to prevent Kate’s entire right legfrom bleeding out and causing sequelae later on.
With the constant channeling of energy, Kate felt the numbness of her right leg dissipating, and shecould feel her leg again.
However, the most embarrassing part was that while he was healing her thigh, she had accidentally letloose a moan of pleasure.
Realizing the situation, Kate felt a sudden surge of bashfulness. She wished to be spirited away into anunknown, secluded spot where she could just bury herself into the ground…
“Okay, you should be alright now. You can go to the hospital to get your wound stitched. Or if you’re notkeen on that, buy these herbs, juice them up and apply them to your wound. It will heal in about tendays,” advised Alex as he listed out the herb names.
Seeing Alex turning to leave, Kate hurriedly asked, “Excuse me, what is your name? Can I have a lookat your face?”
Alex was startled, but walked out without turning his head.
Kate stared at his back, suddenly feeling a sense of familiarity as if she had seen him somewhere.
“Why does this back view resemble Heather’s useless, good–for–nothing husband? Shush pffitt! Howcan that trash be measured up to this hero? The very fact that I compare him with a hero isblasphemous in itself. Such a degrading thought! A real disgrace to my savior!”

Kate shook her head to get rid of the wild thought. She felt an inexplicable sense of disappointment.
Her admired hero sadly did not even leave her any contact nor name. That was something she wasdeeply disappointed about.
Pulling up her jeans, she got up and generously doled out a dozen banknotes from her LV handbag.She graciously said to the waitress, “Thank you for today from the bottom of my heart.”
“Naww, there’s no need…”
The waitress tried to reject, but Kate grabbed her hand and stuffed the banknotes into her grasp. Sheaccepted them reluctantly.
Kate thanked the waitress and headed towards the exit. Although the wound was no longer painful norbleeding, she still walked with a limp.
Throwing caution to the wind, she ignored her injury and walked out. She was determined to try tocatch a last glimpse of her ‘superhero!
As she stepped outside, she realized that there was a lot of traffic and pedestrians going to and fro. Herhero had disappeared into the crowd.
She felt disappointed. Hailing a taxi, she headed to the nearest apothecary to search for the herbs thatAlex had told her.
