Chapter 206 — No, Hehe
Was that really what she meant?
She had said that a little discomfort was nothing, and all she had to do was simply say, "You won't die."?
Cold sweat immediately broke out across the young man's body.
Was this really the Butterfly Mansion?!
"I haven't received any treatment."
With those words, the young man hurriedly got to his feet, only for Shinobu to pull him back down!
A smile remained on Shinobu's face, but her voice was slightly stiff.
"Hey, hey~ What's wrong? Are you dissatisfied with my treatment?"
The young man noticed that whenever Shinobu said this, she would occasionally glance toward Ren.
And the strength in her grip on his arm was gradually increasing.
This made him even more panicked.
In the end, the young man didn't even know how he had ended up sitting back down.
In any case, when he finally left, his face was pale and his lips were turning purple.
He had clearly lost too much blood.
The sight left the other patients stunned.
Those at the front of the line understood what had happened.
But the patients farther back were completely confused.
How could someone come to receive treatment and end up feeling worse when they left?
...
At that moment, Ren also finished treating his patient.
It was the shortest treatment session he had ever had.
Ren would like to clarify that this wasn't because his skills were lacking.
Rather, he had to treat the patient while simultaneously protecting his own chastity.
Naturally, that required a little more effort.
The handsome young man raised his head and immediately noticed that the line in front of him had grown even longer.
Most of them were young and beautiful women.
The next female patient standing opposite Ren had sparkling eyes.
After waiting for so long, it was finally her turn?
She had been standing in line for a very long time today.
She had heard long ago that there was a Master Ren at the Butterfly Mansion whose massage skills were extraordinary.
She had carefully planned her entire visit this time.
Everything was for the sake of experiencing Ren's massage services.
Now that it was finally her turn, how could she not be excited?
The moment she saw the patient in front leave, she immediately lunged forward, throwing herself toward Ren.
Her eyes seemed ready to devour him whole.
But at that moment, a figure moved even faster than she did!
In the front courtyard of the Butterfly Mansion, a colorful haori fluttered lightly.
Shinobu's petite figure suddenly appeared in front of Ren's table.
She skillfully blocked the female patient rushing toward him.
With a smile, she embraced the woman.
"Hello. We don't eat people here."
Although Shinobu was smiling, her voice was cold enough to freeze one's blood.
Her pronunciation sounded gentle, but every word was as cold as a Nichirin Sword.
The female patient felt as though she had suddenly fallen into an ice cellar.
Shinobu gently raised her head and smiled faintly at the long line in front of Ren.
"Everyone, please line up according to gender."
"The male patients should line up behind Mr. Ren. The female patients should line up over here with me~."
"Why can't we?!"
Several of the women behind Ren loudly protested.
The loudest were the ones at the very front.
They had waited for so long, and now that they had finally reached the front, Shinobu expected them to give up Ren's services with a single sentence?
But Shinobu was the Insect Hashira.
Her words still carried considerable authority.
Shinobu tilted her head and blinked playfully.
"Oh~? It seems there's no other way. What do you think we should do?"
Her tone remained ice-cold.
The female patient in her arms had already begun trembling.
She was one of the people closest to Shinobu.
When Shinobu had spoken just now, she could clearly sense the anger radiating from her.
And mixed in with that anger was another unmistakable scent.
Jealousy.
She had smelled that exact scent from Lord Obanai Iguro before.
Something clicked in her mind.
She immediately got to her feet and hurried away.
As she left, the people behind her also stopped moving.
That was when they finally realized it.
Holy crap! Shinobu Kocho is the Insect Hashira!
How could they possibly defy that authority?
Looking at the male patients around them changing positions one after another, the women hesitated.
Then they gritted their teeth and finally moved over to Shinobu's side.
The entire scene fell into Ren's eyes, immediately making his expression strange.
What is going on?
Ren understood something.
But he didn't say it aloud.
At this moment, Master Ren finally realized that Shinobu was serious.
And although he had always been fearless, he now felt a faint, almost imperceptible fear toward Shinobu.
Before long, the line was completely divided, with the men and women clearly separated.
Ren was responsible for the male patients.
Shinobu was responsible for the female patients.
The two quickly began working together.
However, the patients facing Shinobu kept looking toward Ren.
Every now and then, they would reveal expressions of infatuation.
When Shinobu saw this, the smile disappeared from her face.
Whenever she administered an injection, she couldn't help adding a little more force.
As a result, Ren would hear a miserable scream from the neighboring table every minute or two.
Ren didn't even dare turn his head.
Are you kidding me? Was this something he should be concerned about?!
His life was more important!
So Ren carefully focused on the patient in front of him, keeping his head facing forward the entire time.
This also made him extremely fast.
He quickly completed the examination.
With the two of them working together, the patients were treated in no time.
Afterward, Ren tidied up his table while cautiously stealing a glance to the side.
Shinobu was silently organizing the medical instruments in front of her, with Aoi Kanzaki assisting beside her.
The only difference from before was that the smile had disappeared from Shinobu's face.
Shinobu: Don't smile.
Ren tore off a clean tissue and dabbed a little alcohol onto it.
He slowly walked over to Shinobu and wiped the sweat from her forehead and her small hands.
The gesture instantly made Shinobu's body stiffen.
Only then did Ren clearly feel her body tremble slightly.
Ren teased her.
"Strange. Why does your face get redder the more I wipe it?"
Shinobu pretended to be angry.
"Are you trying to die, you~!"
Aoi Kanzaki secretly covered her mouth and giggled from the side.
Master Ren is teasing Master Kocho again.
Shinobu looked toward Aoi.
"You can leave first."
Aoi pointed at herself.
"Me?"
Shinobu nodded.
Aoi couldn't help smacking herself hard across the face.
Just look at her expression.
She simply couldn't control her face, which was precisely why Shinobu had sent her away.
Aoi left.
The moment Aoi was gone, Shinobu turned toward Ren.
Her lips drooped slightly as she said, "Were you having fun treating all those female members just now?"
Ren's heart tightened.
"How could I?"
"You were completely focused on treating them."
Shinobu's voice was very soft, but Ren could still hear the jealousy in it.
Ren smiled.
"How could I possibly treat them badly? Aren't I the face of the Butterfly Mansion? If I treated them poorly, wouldn't that damage your reputation?"
Shinobu huffed.
"Hmph~. You should stop treating patients from now on. Look at what happened. The moment you came here, the entire Butterfly Mansion descended into chaos."
