A Girl's Heart

Gripping onto Xiao Ning'er's creamy, jade white foot made Nie Li's heart swing. Nie Li could clearly see that Xiao Ning'er's smooth, tight calves were simply perfect.

"Don't misunderstand, I'm only treating your illness. The girl I like is Ye Ziyun. It's a pleasure to meet you. I hope that we can be friends in the future," Nie Li explained as he looked at Xiao Ning'er's charming face.

Hearing Nie Li's words, Xiao Ning'er's shoulders slightly shook. She nodded her head and faintly muttered, "En."

From the time she was young until now, aside from her father, Nie Li was the only male that had touched her skin directly. But, the one that Nie Li liked was Ye Ziyun. At the thought of her, Xiao Ning'er's nose turned slightly sour.

Nie Li gripped Xiao Ning'er's foot, positioned his thumb near the bruised area and, gently, started his massage.

"Ah" Xiao Ning'er couldn't help but let out a pained sound.

"The first time will hurt a little. Bear with me for awhile," said Nie Li. He suddenly thought of something and felt embarrassed. Holding a girl's leg and saying such words, sounded a little weird. Although Xiao Ning'er was only thirteen years old, she had grown up in a Noble family, and would, naturally, have some knowledge regarding these matters. After all, some of the girls her age were already married and some even had kids.

Xiao Ning'er lowered her head. Her cheeks flushed red, and couldn't help feeling weird in her heart.

Xiao Ning'er's blushing face was especially charming. It made Nie Li's heart jump. Xiao Ning'er was indeed on par with Ye Ziyun's beauty in the previous life. Although she was only thirteen years old, she was already very charming. In the previous life Xiao Ning'er and Ye Ziyun were both goddesses that the boys looked up to. Ye Ziyun was full of grace and elegance, while Xiao Ning'er had a cold figure. It made the both of them their dream lovers.

But after thinking about Ye Ziyun, Nie Li stopped thinking and focused on treating Xiao Ning'er.

Under Nie Li's gentle massage, Xiao Ning'er felt intense pain at the beginning but the pain was soon replaced by the warmth of Nie Li's hand entering her foot. After a while, there was the feeling of hot ants drilling into her foot, making her itch, which was then replaced with a blissful numbness. Xiao Ning'er couldn't help letting out a little 'ah', which made her seem endlessly bashful.

That bruise had been there for about six to seven months now. Over time, she would feel terrible pain from it. Xiao Ning'er had been enduring the pain with her willpower this whole time. However, no matter how much she persevered, the pain kept torturing her all this time. Xiao Ning'er originally thought that treating this patch of bruise would be very uncomfortable and painful, but, to her surprise, Nie Li's massage was very gentle. She felt that the pain that had been torturing her all this time was being alleviated by a lot. She couldn't help her eyes from turning watery. No one knew how hard it had been to bear the pain. Every night, she would secretly cry. After wiping off those tears, she would continue to practice. She never thought that after being massaged by Nie Li, the pain would be relieved by this much. Her heart was filled with gratitude.

Under the moonlight, Nie Li's face was clear. The serious expression that he had on his face set ripples off in Xiao Ning'er's heart, making it hard for her to calm down.

"Done," said Nie Li as he finished the massage.

He faintly laughed and said, "For the next few days, there will still be traces of pain, but all you need to do is rest and you will be fine."

"En," said Xiao Ning'er, nodding her head. Suddenly, her cheeks flushed red, and she continued to say, "I still have another bruise, could you massage it, too?"

"Another bruise?"

Nie Li thought for a moment, 'Right… there should have been another one. The bruise on her foot shouldn't have caused her to be bedridden for two years. There should be a more serious bruise!'

"Where is it?" he asked.

Xiao Ning'er was struggling in her heart.

'If it's only letting Nie Li massage my foot, it's still acceptable, but if it's that place...' Xiao Ning'er hesitated for a long time, her face shyly blushing.

"If it's not convenient…." began Nie Li, seeing Xiao Ning'er's expression. He immediately realised that the bruised area should be at an inconvenient location.

"Nie Li, the person you like is Ye Ziyun?"

"Yeah," Nie Li nodded his head and replied, recalling everything that happened in his previous life, the life and death situations that he and Ye Ziyun had gone through together were burned into his memory. His heart was suddenly filled with happiness just by thinking about it. With his rebirth, he would definitely protect Ye Ziyun.

At this moment, after listening to Nie Li's words, Xiao Ning'er had a weird taste in her heart. Nie Li was the first boy to move her heart, but the one Nie Li liked wasn't her. It was Ye Ziyun.

Xiao Ning'er's eyes flashed with disappointment, thought for a moment and asked, "Then, does Ye Ziyun like you?"

The current Ye Ziyun didn't know anything about Nie Li. Not hating him would already be considered very good. Nie Li shook his head, smiled and confidently said, "She will fall in love with me!"

Looking at Nie Li, Xiao Ning'er laughed, 'So Nie Li's love is unrequited. I don't know where that confidence of his comes from. He actually thinks that the prideful Ye Ziyun would fall for him.'

It wasn't that Xiao Ning'er felt that Nie Li was unworthy of Ye Ziyun's love, but rather that neither of them had any understanding towards each other. The chances of them coming together were too slim. The current Ye Ziyun still didn't have any understanding towards Nie Li, hence, she would definitely have no feelings for him. But if one day, Ye Ziyun understood Nie Li's character, she might really fall for him.

Up till now, no one seemed to have realised Nie Li's talent. However, one day Nie Li would definitely shine. By then, she feared that even a prideful girl like Ye Ziyun would be subdued by Nie Li.

In the eyes of others, Nie Li was still an ignorant boy, but Xiao Ning'er now knew that Nie Li's abilities were far beyond the imagination of other people. Nie Li would definitely become a Legend rank Demon Spiritualist like Lord Ye Mo in the future or become an even more powerful existence.

Xiao Ning'er struggled for awhile in her heart. 'If the illness doesn't get treated, I will get thrown further and further behind by the surrounding geniuses of my age.'

Since the one helping her with the treatment was Nie Li, it wasn't that hard for her to accept. Grinding her teeth, she began to undo the buttons of her shirt. Seeing Xiao Ning'er's action, Nie Li couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

He rubbed his nose and said, "This doesn't look good. I'm a decent person."

He watched as Xiao Ning'er slowly removed her shirt. Her cold figure had an unspeakable charm to it.

Xiao Ning'er stared at Nie Li as she thought, 'Then was she an indecent kind of girl?'

If it wasn't for her treatment, she wouldn't even take the initiative to undo her shirt. As she unbuttoned her shirt, her hands slightly trembled and her inner struggle could be seen.

Nie Li thought for awhile. 'I know it's to save her, so I can't think too much about other stuff. I can't let Xiao Ning'er's hope be crumbled by that disease.'

The surrounding atmosphere turned charming. The first button, then the second button. Xiao Ning'er's fat-less smooth white skin was already visible, glowing under the moonlight.

After the fifth button was undone, Xiao Ning'er's perfect curves were absolutely shattering. Her chest was tied with a bandage and a beautiful bulge was pushing out. Although Nie Li was reborn, seeing this scene, he couldn't help but swallow down a mouthful of saliva. He thought back to his previous life. Although Xiao Ning'er usually dressed extremely conservatively, her figure could still be described as extremely hot. With only a glance, she would drive many men crazy.

Soon, Xiao Ning'er would grow up to be that charming and attractive woman. Her cold and noble character would make her the object that many men would wish to conquer.

Nie Li calmed his mind for a bit and his eyes fell on Xiao Ning'er's ribs. On her lower rib sat an extremely shocking bruise. Although it was only the size of a thumb, the colour of the bruise was a very deep purple. His heart was full of pity for Xiao Ning'er.

'How can such a delicate and pitiful young girl endure such intense pain?' he asked himself.

Nie Li placed his hands on the bruised area and gently massaged it. Xiao Ning'er's skin was as cold as water. Her well-proportioned body had a smooth, creamy texture, which he felt through his hand, making his heart swing. He tilted his head up to look at Xiao Ning'er's face. She was burning red, almost as though she had just had a drink of alcohol, giving her a sense of unspeakable beauty. Looking from above, he could see Xiao Ning'er's jade white shoulders, and realised a scent of female fragrance was coming from her.

Silently, the both of them did not speak and the woods were quiet and serene.

Xiao Ning'er could feel the warmth from Nie Li's palm. From the time she was young until now, this was the first time a guy had been so intimately in contact with her body. Right now, her shirt was half removed, revealing a large patch of skin, making her feel bashful. Even though her heart was strong, in the dead silent night, her heart was very lonely. When she was experiencing the unbearable pain caused by the bruises, she wanted to find someone to rely on. But in the family, no matter if it was her brothers or her father, they felt deeply indifferent. Nie Li, at this moment, was the only one, she felt, that she could rely on.

The best she had was shown to Nie Li. She glanced at Nie Li and realised that Nie Li, at this moment, was focused on massaging her bruised area. That serious attitude of his made her feel gratitude, but at the same time she felt lost.

While Nie Li's thumb was massaging the bruised area, he would accidentally touch Xiao Ning'er's jade white arms from time to time. That delicate touch would make anyone distracted, even if it was Nie Li. Nie Li's mind would return to the scenes of him and Ye Ziyun's one night of passion.

Ye Ziyun, at that time, had developed much more fully than the current Xiao Ning'er, but the current Xiao Ning'er was still young. Once she had grown up, she wouldn't be that different compared to Ye Ziyun.

Ye Ziyun's charming and elegant look would appear in Nie Li's mind from time to time and he would remember that Ye Ziyun died to save him. Therefore, after his rebirth, Nie Li definitely couldn't let her down. Thinking of that, Nie Li's heart finally calmed down.

While Nie Li was carefully massaging the bruised area with his thumb, he would tap on several important acupuncture points. Because of Xiao Ning'er's well-proportioned body, he would occasionally massage a sensitive spot and would feel the soft bulge, leaving Nie Li slightly embarrassed.

Xiao Ning'er felt the surge of heat coming from Nie Li's hand as it moved around her rib area. From time to time she would even feel a blissful numbness. Nie Li's hand would occasionally touch the twin perks that no other man had ever touched before, making her face blush to a wine red colour. The look she had when she was blushing was extremely attractive. That girl's charming and enchanting looks would make others unable to do anything but want to take her in their arms.

This was a really tough ordeal. After massaging her for a long time, Nie Li let out a breath, smiled and said, "Done!"

Feeling Nie Li's hand move away, Xiao Ning'er felt a sense of loss. She had to admit, Nie Li's massage technique was amazing. It helped her relieve the pain that had tortured her for so long.

"Thank you," Xiao Ning'er whispered as she started to button her shirt. Seeing the jade white skin and graceful curves slowly disappearing from his sight, the ups and downs in Nie Li's mood gradually calmed down.

With a stern face, he said, "Rest well for the next few days. This should help to alleviate the pain. I'll give you a massage every three days, a few times more and the roots of the illness will be removed. Before reaching Bronze rank, don't train your soul force at night. If you absorb too much moonlight essence, and are then unable to harmonise with it, it would cause serious consequences!"

"En," Xiao Ning'er nodded her head. She no longer dared to practice, anyhow. If it wasn't for Nie Li, she could imagine how terrible the situation would've been in the future. All of her efforts and hard work would've been in vain.

Seeing Xiao Ning'er didn't have any other issues, Nie Li stood up and said, "It's time for me to leave."

"Oh."

She couldn't tell what her feelings were. Xiao Ning'er nodded and went silent for a moment before saying, "Nie Li, you've helped me. If there's anything you need my help with in the future, I will spare no effort to help you!"

Seeing Xiao Ning'er's serious expression, Nie Li smiled. While nodding his head, he said "Okay, if I need your help in the future, I'll find you!"

The truth was that Nie Li helped Xiao Ning'er out of pity towards her. He never thought of getting anything back in return.

Nie Li turned around and left, his shadow slowly disappeared into the forest.

Xiao Ning'er stared at Nie Li's leaving figure. She stood on the spot for a long time, feeling that the illness in her body had already been alleviated by a lot. Her mood became cheerful again.

"Nie Li, what kind of person are you, actually?" Xiao Ning'er muttered, watching Nie Li's back. When she could no longer see him, she turned around and walked towards the exit of the training ground.

The moon was like water. As the moonlight shined, it would sprinkle a veil of light over the night.
