Chereads / Urban Doctor / Chapter 4 - Back from the dead

Chapter 4 - Back from the dead

The one speaking was Su Wan Yue's biological older brother.

Upon hearing this, Su Wan Yue's gaze turned icy, and she shouted, "Su Yunping, stop spouting nonsense! No one wants to save Grandpa more than I do!"

Her family had ulterior motives. Su Wan Yue had been personally raised by her grandfather. She was the one who wanted to save him the most, but at this moment, she had become the villain in her family's eyes.

Su Yunping shot a glance at his father and yelled, "Dad, I'm going to stop that guy. If he dares to touch Grandpa, he's asking for death!"

Seeing this, Su Wan Yue immediately stepped in front of Chen Tian and shouted, "Su Yunping, what do you think you're doing?"

"Heh, of course, I'm saving Grandpa! Who knows where you found this accomplice. You just want to kill Grandpa!" Su Yunping was about to push Chen Tian away.

Chen Tian suddenly raised his hand, his voice serious. "If you touch him before the last two needles are placed, your grandfather will definitely die."

Hearing this, Su Wan Yue could care less about anything else. She firmly blocked Su Yunping's path.

Meanwhile, the dean stood at the door, coldly observing the situation, eager to laugh.

"Let him continue, let him. It's all for show, just the perfect way to seal his fate!"

More and more people gathered outside the room, all with gloating expressions.

"Chen Tian must have been knocked silly earlier!"

"Yeah, I felt sorry for him earlier, but now it's clear he's an idiot. Not even worth sympathizing with."

"Right? Even if he gets a ten-year sentence, there's still a chance. But now, he'll end up in prison for life!"

"Such an idiot in our Traditional Chinese Medicine department. How did he even get here?"

At that moment, Su Wan Yue looked at Chen Tian, her confidence wavering. She asked, "Can you really do this?"

"Don't disturb me while I'm treating!" Chen Tian snapped, clearly irritated.

It was a critical moment. Last night, Old Master Su had suffered severe suffocation. His heartbeat had weakened, causing blood flow issues. His brain and heart, two crucial areas in medicine, were already blocked by blood clots.

A heart attack or stroke leading to death was just one step away.

To save Old Master Su, the blood clots must be stopped, and the blocked vessels must be cleared.

Seeing that Su Wan Yue was resolute in protecting Chen Tian, Su Yunping no longer moved forward but instead mercilessly threatened, "Kid, if you kill my grandfather, I will destroy your entire family."

"Is there really no doctor in this hospital? Can someone tell me what's happening with my father?" Su Qing Guo, Su Wan Yue's father, shouted angrily from behind.

The dean nudged Doctor Lin and smiled. "Doctor Lin, why don't you go explain this?"

Doctor Lin sighed and stepped forward, saying, "Mr. Su, Chen Tian is just an intern at our hospital. How could he possibly save Old Master Su?"

"Old Master's face is dark, and he looks like he's been dead for a long time."

"We told Miss Su earlier that it was her younger sister who caused the issue last night, and now, with this random needling, it's impossible to save him."

Su Yunping immediately became furious, yelling, "Ah, Su Wan Yue, you're clearly working with him to kill your own grandfather! You filthy disgrace of a family member! Tomorrow, you'll be all over the news, and then you'll go to jail!"

"Dad, what are we waiting for? Arrest Su Wan Yue and bring Grandpa home!"

Meanwhile, Chen Tian, holding two large silver needles, suddenly thrust them down.

As the needles entered, blood rapidly flowed to Old Master Su's palms and soles.

It was clear to see, thick, dark blood—like ink—flowing from the two puncture wounds.

The twelfth needle: Reviving the dead, defying the heavens!

The thirteenth needle: Bringing the dead back to life, from flesh and bone!

...

With Chen Tian's final needle placed, the previous twelve needles all inexplicably rose from the skin on their own.

The scene was so strange it was beyond words.

Su Wan Yue anxiously asked, "What's happening to Grandpa? If you deceive me, you'll suffer the consequences!"

Chen Tian glanced at the bed where Old Master Su lay, then smacked his lips and said, "Damn, I'm so hungry!"

Su Wan Yue: "...…"

At this moment, Su Yunping quickly rushed over to the bedside, falling to his knees and howling like a wolf, "Grandpa! You died so horribly! I'll take revenge for you! I will find the person who harmed you and grind them into dust!"

"Grandpa, may you rest in peace!"

Su Yunping desperately squeezed out tears, but suddenly, the noisy room fell eerily silent.

All eyes were now on Old Master Su's bed.

In an instant, Old Master Su, who had previously appeared with a blackened face, like a corpse, began to change.

It was clear to see the bruises on his face dissipating like mist.

Soon, his face filled with a healthy, rosy glow.

He moved!

Old Master Su's eyelids actually started to flutter!

Su Yunping looked up and let out a blood-curdling scream, "Ah! A ghost…!"

"Wha—what's happening?! How is this possible?"

The dean, sweating, touched his forehead in horror.

It must be an illusion!

Yes, it had to be an illusion!

Chen Tian couldn't possibly possess such medical skills!

Doctor Lin, too, was shaken and sighed deeply, "This… this is the Resurrection Technique? No, no way!"

Su Qing Guo and his wife exchanged a tense glance, sweat breaking out on their foreheads.

Su Wan Yue rushed to the bedside, crying with joy, "Grandpa, Grandpa, you really woke up? Woo, this is so wonderful!"

On the bed, Old Master Su sat up suddenly, coughed up a mouthful of black blood, and wiped his mouth, saying, "Good granddaughter, I didn't die! Even in my dazed state, I could hear everything! I must've met a living Hua Tuo!"

Old Master Su looked at Chen Tian beside him, clearly astonished. "I can't believe the one who pulled me from the gates of hell is such a young friend."

Chen Tian awkwardly smiled.

Old Master Su grabbed Su Wan Yue's hand, his tone full of affection. "Wan Yue, this young friend saved your grandfather. Our Su family cannot let him go unrewarded."

Su Wan Yue snapped back to reality and glanced at Chen Tian before replying, "Don't worry, Grandpa. As long as his conditions are not too excessive, I will agree to them."

Chen Tian explained, "Su Lao, they wronged us siblings and accused us of harming you. Now that you're fine, if I wanted to harm you, I wouldn't have saved you, right?"

Old Master Su smiled deeply. "This young man has no reason to harm me since we don't know each other. Whoever harmed me must be someone else."

"Very well. Since the Su family is so impressive, Miss Su said earlier that she will agree to anything I ask," Chen Tian said with a smug grin.

No man would leave a grudge unrevenged. It's not a matter of timing; it's about paying back when it counts.

However, when Su Wan Yue saw Chen Tian's mischievous look, her thoughts began to wander.

"You better not push your luck. I'm warning you—we come from completely different worlds."

She thought Chen Tian was trying to take advantage of the situation to climb up the social ladder and make her fall for him.

Old Master Su, hearing this, laughed aloud.

"Granddaughter, stop talking nonsense. This young man is about your age. Marriage is free now—how could he and you not come from the same world?"

"Ah, Grandpa, that's not what I meant!" Su Wan Yue blushed with embarrassment.

How could her grandfather say such a thing?

Chen Tian, uninterested in fantasizing, pointed at the dean, Guo Dafu, and gritted his teeth. "I, Chen Tian, am not greedy. I don't need five million, but you must take this bastard down."

Upon hearing this, the dean, Guo Dafu, burst into laughter. "I told you, you're such an innocent fool. Who gave you the courage to say something like this? Was it Liang Jingru? Hahaha…"
