"Greetings, young ladies," Ye Tian said.
Nong Yu touched her slightly swollen cheek and replied, "Mr. Ye, we will go back to reduce the swelling and then return to thank you."
Ye Tian said, "The slap you received was delivered with true force. If this bruise isn't treated, it might remain on your face for three to five years."
Nong Yu and Yin Ning were stunned. Three to five years to disappear!
They were once among the four beauties of Tang Tower. Hearing this news, their faces instantly lost color. Tears welled up in Nong Yu's beautiful eyes, and she looked as though she was about to cry.
Ye Tian continued, "But there's no need to worry, I can help you with it."
He reached into his pocket and took out a small segment of lotus root. "Nong Yu, please have a seat."
Nong Yu sat on a chair. Ye Tian stood before her and gently rubbed the sliced lotus root on her reddened and swollen cheek. This lotus root was a spiritual medicine, its medicinal properties perfect for reducing swelling, promoting blood circulation, and also for beauty and skin enhancement.
After rubbing for a while, he also gently massaged her face a few times. At his touch, Nong Yu let out a soft hum but did not pull away. Her delicate face, already smooth, was now coated with lotus root juice, feeling incredibly slick to the touch.
However, Ye Tian was clearly not taking advantage of her. He was using his own strength to eliminate the internal injuries. Nong Yu felt Ye Tian's hands were both warm and powerful. She couldn't help but close her eyes, feeling a touch of shyness. Although she was a lady from Tang Tower, she had rarely interacted with men. As one of the four beauties, she had always been protected by Tang Tower. This was because beauties like her were destined for great purposes.
After massaging for two minutes, Ye Tian handed the remaining lotus root segment to her and said with a smile, "There. This is very rare. Use it to rub the other side of your cheek."
Everyone saw that the redness and swelling on Nong Yu's face had indeed disappeared. Her skin was now rosy and fair, appearing even more beautiful than before.
Yin Ning quickly sat down beside her and said sweetly, "Sir, please help me treat mine as well."
Ye Tian nodded and, using the same method, healed Yin Ning's redness and swelling.
Afterward, the two women held the lotus root segments and applied them to their faces, careful not to waste any. Although they didn't understand medicine, the lotus root felt cool and emitted a refreshing fragrance, clearly indicating it was something precious.
Tang Zhen and the others had already arrived. Tang Zhen smiled and said, "Ladies, we shall not disturb you further. Please entertain Mr. Ye well."
Yin Ning and Nong Yu immediately became nervous. Tang Zhen's words implied that they were to attend to Ye Tian, and this was undoubtedly the sect leader's intention.
The education and training they had received since childhood were all for this day, to please an important man. When the moment truly arrived, they couldn't help but feel nervous. However, as they looked at Ye Tian's gentle and elegant demeanor, his tall stature, and his handsome features, their nervousness gradually subsided.
Ye Tian asked curiously, "Are you all leaving?"
Tang Feng smiled and said, "Mr. Ye, we are going to find other ladies. Please enjoy yourself." With that, the group hurried out, leaving only Ye Tian, Nong Yu, and Yin Ning behind.
Ye Tian was unconcerned and said with a smile, "I've heard that the ladies of Tang Tower are all accomplished in various arts. I wonder if I am fortunate enough to witness them?"
Nong Yu smiled and replied, "Young master, then Nong Yu and Yin Ning will dance for you."
She gently clapped her hands, and five musicians entered. As the music began, the two women danced gracefully. Ye Tian, who had seen much of the world, found himself immersed in the performance.
After dancing two pieces, Ye Tian couldn't help but applaud and say, "You two ladies have danced exceptionally well!"
Nong Yu and Yin Ning sat on either side of Ye Tian. Nong Yu asked softly, "Young master, why don't we have the servants bring some wine and food, and we can drink a few cups with you?"
By this time, it was getting late, and Ye Tian hadn't had dinner yet. He nodded and said, "That would be good."
