Su Qiubai had used his Qi observation skill earlier on himself in order to observe the venous veins and Qi of an ordinary person that were supposed to penetrate each other.
But Gu Chengya's weren't!
That was why Zhang Zhongjing said that he'd need to move Gu Chengya's venous veins back to its position then give her enough essence.
At this moment, the golden needles were connected at all the broken places!
Su Qiubai just needed to connect the broken venous veins with the golden needles.
There was a hint of dignity in the eyes. He put his hand on the first needle…
The doctors outside didn't know what was going on in the room. They only knew that it had been a long time but there wasn't any sound in the room.
Everyone couldn't help to have an unbelievable suspicion, but they just couldn't admit it.
Impossible! It's impossible for that dumb Su Qiubai to have such a skill!
Perhaps the most nervous people outside the room were Gu Tian and Gu Qianshan. The old man's eyes were locked at the door, Gu Qianshan anxiously sat next to him.
Inside the room, the old master Murong Deye was shocked beyond words!
Every move Su Qiubai took, made him believe what was called a miracle!
When Su Qiubai first gave him the needles and asked him to insert them into the acupoints, he felt even more suspicious because those positions, in his opinion, were irrelevant to Gu Chengya's illness!
However, due to Su Qiubai's insistence, he did it anyway.
When he watched Su Qiubai hold on to the first golden needle, he was so doubtful that he wanted to stop Su Qiubai from continuing the treatment.
Su Qiubai's gesture and strength weren't as of a person who studied medical at all!
But who knew… After the first needle, Su Qiubai's gestures changed. It was as if he could see the venous veins inside of Gu Chengya's body. He even constantly adjusted the gold needles.
Although Murong Deye didn't quite understand what Su Qiubai was doing, he could see that young man was really dedicated and he was trying very hard!
All his energy is focused on the needles. His mind is clear, without any distracting thoughts. He's doing his best…
At that moment, Murong Deye seemed to have seen his previous self, the one who had studied medical techniques just to save people. Perhaps only such a person… could be called a doctor!
Those were Murong Deye's thoughts. He suddenly began to believe that Su Qiubai could really cure Gu Chengya. Miracle… would be with this young man!
As Murong Deye said, Su Qiubai was really doing his best.
Towards the end of the treatment, Su Qiubai was drenched in sweat, the area around his eyes were even slightly covered by sweat, but he had no time to wipe it off.
He must concentrate to ensure that he wouldn't make any mistake with the needle in his hand, because if he wasn't careful, the price of his mistake w
as Gu Chengya's life.
No one could understand the effect of performing acupuncture for a long period of time on one's mental and physical strength.
It had been four hours… Su Qiubai didn't even notice that he had been in the room for four hours. He only continued because of a stubborn thought in his mind.
He couldn't bear to see a young life leave.
As he said before, he had never expected anything in return for helping others. He only did that because… I'm just being myself and that's enough!
Finally, it was the last golden needle. When Su Qiubai looked over, his sweat dripped from his chin.
"Young man, take a break."
Murong Deye really couldn't stand it anymore so he couldn't help but said.
Slightly chuckled, Su Qiubai shook his head, then took a deep breath and stretched his hand towards the last needle.
...
The sky was already dark but the courtyard was brightly lit. Everyone was waiting… for a miracle!
Gu Tian sat next to a pillar at the door. At that moment, he looked nothing like a powerful old man. Anyone pa.s.sing by would only see him as an ordinary old man. An old man who cared for his granddaughter.
Gu Qianshan sat next to him. They were too scared to wait inside the yard.
They were afraid that after the door was opened, they would once more hear a disappointing answer or that they would never see the lovely girl anymore.
She lived a cheerful life, smiling all the time.
The father and son just couldn't believe a world without her. Would there still be light tomorrow?
Finally, the door opened.
Then… Su Qiubai walked out.
Gu Qianshan and Gu Tian came close and saw Su Qiubai's tired look. They didn't know how to ask about Gu Chengya's condition.
"She's fine now…"
Grinning while saying that, Su Qiubai collapsed.
No one knew the struggle the Gu family had gone through that night, especially when Gu Tian and his son saw Gu Chengya opened her eyes. Her face was slightly pinkish and her eyes were clear. The 70-year-old man immediately cried like a child.
Su Qiubai, however, was already soundly asleep. He was too tired.
The next morning, when the old driver opened his eyes, he saw Gu Chengya sitting at the edge of bed.
She was wearing a white dress, looking as beautiful as a fairy.
When she spotted Su Qiubai waking up, she smiled.
"Thank you."
Getting up, Su Qiubai laughed. "You're welcome. You look very beautiful."
That sentence was from the bottom of his heart. Gu Chengya was really beautiful, especially when she seemed to have regained a new life.
"Have you ever been in love?"
Gu Chengya curiously asked all of a sudden.
Su Qiubai stunned for a long time, not knowing why she asked so.
"I used to think about what it's like to fall in love, but I can't afford to waste so much time. Now… I want to try."
Ignoring the silent Su Qiubai, Gu Chengya continued.
Su Qiubai became anxious, he somehow had a scary feeling because he actually thought of Xia Rongrong after listening to Gu Chengya's words. He eagerly waved his hand, "Erm��� Hey, you don't have to think of trading yourself just because I saved you… No need, I am… erm…"
He stuttered but Gu Chengya suddenly laughed.
"When did I say that I want to marry you? You're so anxious… Do you think I'm ugly?"
Su Qiubai almost jumped after hearing this.
"No, I don't mean that. You're very beautiful… What I meant was that you don't have to thank me. It's really nothing!"
In the end, he felt like he was just going in circles.
Gu Chengya, however, felt even happier teasing Su Qiubai. Perhaps she was in a good mood because the serious illness was finally gone.
Su Qiubai couldn't help but laughed with her.
Su Qiubai only left the Gu family when it was almost noon. Since they were really grateful, he couldn't refuse them.
As he was about to leave, Murong Deye gave him his phone number and told Su Qiubai to call him if he came to Bei Du next time.
Of course, Su Qiubai didn't refuse the offer. He even let the rest of the doctors make their promise by signing their debt receipts.
The doctors were definitely convinced by the fact that he had managed to cure Gu Chengya. He had a shockingly incredible skill, so they accepted their lost.
After gathering all of the debt receipts, he left the Gu family. Gu Chengya watched his car completely disappeared into the street then returned to the house.
Perhaps only she understood that some of the words said in the morning weren't all jokes.
According to Gu Qianshan, Xiao Xiao was doing well at the hospital and she had people looking out for her all the time, so Su Qiubai was relieved.
On the way back, he pa.s.sed by the Drivers' League. He couldn't resist to stop and have a look.
However, a long-legged woman wearing a hat and sungla.s.ses suddenly pulled the car door open!
Before Su Qiubai could comprehend what was going on, she sat next to him while nervously looking out the window, and then she crouched down. Her head almost touching Su Qiubai's thigh.
"Start driving!"
