Suddenly, a sunny and handsome young man arrived, and Tan Shengmei was also confused. She didn't know what the youth was about, and he even said he wanted to help treat someone.
When Luo Yang arrived, the family members finally calmed down temporarily. This was a good thing, and Tan Shengmei felt slightly relieved.
"Director Tan, may I know the patient's condition?" Luo Yang asked.
"Our hospital has limited resources. When the patient came for a check-up, we couldn't detect the brainstem infarction. Later, when the symptoms became apparent, it was confirmed, but by then it was too late. The patient can breathe on his own, but very weakly, and still needs vasopressors to maintain it. From clinical experience, this type of cerebral ischemia has little hope of recovery," Tan Shengmei replied.
"There is still breathing, there might be a chance to save him. Let me try. I will perform acupuncture on the patient," Luo Yang said.
"You know how to perform acupuncture?" Tan Shengmei asked, half-doubting.
The man with glasses also looked completely skeptical.
At that moment, Qiao Zai Shui came over and said, "My sworn brother is highly skilled in medicine. He says there is a chance, what are you waiting for? Any later, and it might be too late to save him."
The man with glasses doubted that Qiao Zai Shui was a plant and said coldly, "How much will that cost?"
Just from the tone of his voice, Luo Yang knew what the man with glasses was thinking.
"I'm in a good mood today, no charge," Luo Yang generously said.
The man with glasses quickly spoke with the family members, and no one opposed.
"Alright, if you cure my father's illness, we will reward you handsomely," the man with glasses said seriously.
"Let's talk about that after he's cured," Luo Yang then asked Tan Shengmei, "Director Tan, please get the tools for me, I need to perform acupuncture on the patient."
This is a hospital.
Tan Shengmei had to consider the scenario if the treatment was unsuccessful, and she couldn't be sure whether Luo Yang was colluding with the family.
If Luo Yang was here just to make a few moves and then leave, the hospital would still have to bear additional responsibilities.
With this consideration in mind, Tan Shengmei hesitated, "You're not a doctor in our hospital, you can't treat patients here."
Luo Yang helplessly smiled, "Director Tan, don't worry so much."
He knew it was hard to persuade her just by talking.
Luo Yang then said to the man with glasses, "Let's record this on a mobile phone, you clarify in the recording that if I don't cure your father's illness, the hospital shouldn't be held responsible."
The man with glasses also hesitated, undecided.
"So you all just want to watch the patient die?" Luo Yang said coldly.
"Alright. Record it!" the man with glasses agreed.
However, Tan Shengmei had objections.
"This is against the rules; I can't make this decision," Tan Shengmei refused.
"Director Tan, trust me this once," Luo Yang, holding Tan Shengmei's shoulders, stared at her.
Angry words from the family members erupted one after another.
Tan Shengmei could only nod and said, "Then it's up to you. I must remind you again, taking the patient to a larger hospital might still offer some hope."
Later, a nurse provided Luo Yang with acupuncture tools.
He entered the patient's room, while the others waited outside, Luo Yang treated the patient alone.
First, Luo Yang stimulated the patient's acupoints through acupuncture, then he infused True Qi into the patient's body, promoting his blood circulation.
This task was very strenuous, requiring not only physical effort but complete concentration.
If not controlled properly, all his efforts would be in vain.
Tan Shengmei, Qiao Zai Shui, and Shi Nan crowded at the door, staring unwaveringly at Luo Yang inside.
Just then a cell phone ringtone sounded, and Luo Yang asked Qiao Zai Shui to help take his cell phone out of his pocket.
Qiao Zai Shui walked in, retrieved the cell phone from Luo Yang's pocket, glanced at the caller ID, and whispered, "Sister An is calling, do you want to answer it?"
Luo Yang replied, "You go out and answer it, just say I'm treating someone and will be back late."
Before leaving, Qiao Zai Shui inquired again, "Is there any hope?"
Luo Yang was also unsure about that.
"Let's talk about it later," Luo Yang didn't want to be distracted.
He was currently controlling the True Qi to help clear the patient's blood vessels.
Another half an hour passed, and Luo Yang stood up.
The people outside looked at Luo Yang anxiously.
When Luo Yang reached the door, Tan Shengmei couldn't help but ask, "How did it go?"
Luo Yang simply smiled, "It worked, he woke up."
Tan Shengmei was half skeptical, but she hurried over to check on the patient and indeed saw the patient's eyes slowly opening.
The family members also rushed in, overjoyed to see their loved one revived.
The bespectacled man was extremely excited and grabbed Luo Yang's hand, expressing his gratitude, "My savior! Thank you for saving my dad! Come here, my dad wants to thank you himself."
So Luo Yang was pulled to the bedside.
When the patient learned that it was Luo Yang who had saved him, he repeatedly thanked him profusely.
Luo Yang still wanted to take Shi Nan home, exchanged pleasantries, and then said goodbye.
"Savior, I still don't know your name. My name is Guan Changxing." The bespectacled man held Luo Yang's hand.
"I'm Luo Yang, call me Xiao Luo. Normally let your dad eat some pig liver, red dates, stew more soup, add some Angelica Root, red dates, goji berries, Codonopsis Root, and Astragalus membranaceus to nourish him," Luo Yang advised.
Guan Changxing had wanted to invite Luo Yang for a meal, but knowing that Luo Yang had urgent matters to attend to, Guan had to let him go, but they exchanged mobile phone numbers.
Just as he stepped into the corridor, Tan Shengmei's voice came from behind, "Mr. Luo, please stay."
Luo Yang turned around and asked, "Director Tan, what's the matter?"
It turned out that Tan Shengmei also wanted his mobile phone number.
"What's your mobile number?" Tan Shengmei asked with a smile.
"I'll enter it for you," Luo Yang said generously.
Taking the pink-cased smartphone from Tan Shengmei's hand, he entered his mobile number into the phonebook, and then handed it back to her.
"You're so young, yet your medical skills are so impressive, who did you learn from?" Tan Shengmei couldn't help asking.
"Director Tan, let's find time to discuss this topic thoroughly. Right now, I need to take my friend home," Luo Yang said with a smile.
His medical skills were entirely derived from the "Shennong Scripture."
Tan Shengmei smiled faintly and said, "Alright, let's talk when you have time."
After saying goodbye to Tan Shengmei, Luo Yang took Shi Nan and Qiao Zai Shui downstairs.
He had wanted to suggest to Shi Nan to take a taxi home herself, but seeing her gloomy face, seemingly filled with worries, Luo Yang said, "Sister Nan, let me take you home."
If she said it wasn't necessary, he would have left it at that.
But Shi Nan nodded in agreement.
"Little Sister Qiao, you drive," Luo Yang said.
Luo Yang and Shi Nan sat in the back of the car, he just wanted to chat with her.
Glancing at Shi Nan, he saw that she was in tears.
Speaking of pain, the blood from a broken forehead was a bit painful.
But the wound had been bandaged and shouldn't hurt much anymore.
Was she crying because she was worried about a scar ruining her looks?
With this question in mind, Luo Yang said, "Sister Nan, it's alright, just let your fringe grow a bit longer."
Suddenly, Shi Nan shook her head, covering her face with both hands, looking very distressed.
Suddenly, Luo Yang felt that her pain was emotional.
Was she truly in love with Big Brother B?
That would be difficult to deal with.
Big Brother B had a wife, Shi Nan could only be considered a mistress.
A mistress wanting to rise to the top, that was something Luo Yang couldn't assist with.
Of course, this was just Luo Yang's speculation, not yet verified.
"Sister Nan, do you like Big Brother B?" Luo Yang asked bluntly.
To his surprise, Shi Nan still shook her head.
In the car, her gentle sobs could be heard.
Now that Luo Yang had gotten to know Shi Nan, he wanted to understand why she was crying, so he could decide whether to help her or not.
"Why are you crying? Are you scared of being beaten again?" Luo Yang asked again.
But Shi Nan shook her head again.
Luo Yang was lost in a fog, completely baffled.
"Sister Nan, tell me, I might be able to help you," Luo Yang said with concern.
Seeing her cry, he couldn't bear it.
