"I've never met a young man with such an arrogant tone. Since you say so, then fine, tell me, what exactly is wrong with Ms. Chen in this hospital bed?"
Dr. Huang, perhaps shocked by Du Fei's earlier words, didn't rush him out this time but instead asked him directly.
Chen Huizhu had originally intended to tell Du Fei to leave immediately. However, since Dr. Huang had spoken, she felt it would be impolite to refuse him.
It wouldn't be too late to send Du Fei away after he answered Dr. Huang's question, Chen Huizhu thought to herself.
"She has enteric fever," Du Fei said slowly.
"Enteric fever?"
"What kind of illness is that?"
"Never heard of it."
As soon as Du Fei finished speaking, everyone in the room looked confused, not knowing what illness he was referring to.
Dr. Huang, however, knew of it. He chuckled, "Enteric fever? Young man, Ms. Chen has already had a CT scan. The images show she's completely normal, and I've examined her. It's impossible."
"What enteric fever? What's wrong with my intestines?" Chen Huizhu looked bewildered upon hearing this.
This Du Dabao's associate was truly unreliable.
"Aunt Chen, you must have had an appendectomy before, right? Starting in the last year, your abdomen has frequently ached, you've had a poor appetite, and occasionally constipation. I must be right, shouldn't I?" Du Fei said, his gaze fixed on Chen Huizhu in the hospital bed.
Chen Huizhu's eyes widened as if she had seen something incredible. She instinctively replied, "How do you know so much?"
Could this Du Fei really be a capable doctor? He had described her condition so accurately.
Wait, that wasn't right. Could her daughter have told him? After her initial surprise, Chen Huizhu suddenly thought of a possibility. The more she thought about it, the more convinced she became that this was the truth.
"Ms. Chen, are all these things he's saying true?" Dr. Huang had initially just intended to tease Du Fei, but after Du Fei spoke so earnestly, Chen Huizhu's expression changed drastically. He was also a little surprised. Could Du Fei actually be telling the truth?
However, Chen Huizhu didn't answer him at this moment. Instead, she pointed at Yu Wenjing and said, "You, Yu Wenjing! I worked so hard to raise you, and you've colluded with others to deceive me. You told him all those things just now, didn't you!"
"Mom! What are you talking about? Du Fei and I only met a few minutes ago. Besides, how could I possibly conspire with others to deceive you!"
"I know you've never liked Brother Dabao, but I didn't expect you to doubt even me. Aren't you going too far!" Yu Wenjing was stunned by Chen Huizhu's accusation. After reacting, she became angry. Her mother was being too much. Regardless of whether the doctor Du Dabao had invited, Du Fei, was skilled or not, he had good intentions. Yet, Chen Huizhu not only failed to appreciate it but also accused her own daughter of conspiring with an outsider to deceive her in front of so many people. She didn't even trust her own daughter, which was incredibly excessive.
"You, Yu Wenjing, are now shouting at your mother! I... I... the pain is killing me!" Seeing her usually obedient daughter arguing loudly with her, Chen Huizhu became furious. But as she became enraged, her stomach ached again. Chen Huizhu then clutched her abdomen and writhed on the bed.
"Mom! Mom, are you okay?" Even though she was angry with Chen Huizhu just moments ago, seeing her mother in so much pain, Yu Wenjing immediately rushed over and held her. Lian Haichao also leaned to the side with a look of 'concern.' Du Dabao, however, said to Du Fei, "Brother Fei, Aunt Chen just has this temper. I hope you don't mind. At this moment, only you can help her."
"I understand," Du Fei replied, glancing at Du Dabao before walking towards the hospital bed.
"What are you doing, you guy?" Lian Haichao stood by the bed and made to block Du Fei as he approached. Du Dabao then said, "Wenjing, don't worry. As long as Brother Fei makes a move, Auntie's illness will surely be cured."
"Even if I... I die from the pain, I don't need... I don't need your help." Chen Huizhu in the hospital bed was sweating profusely from the pain. However, when she thought about how her daughter, for the sake of Du Dabao, had revealed her private matters to others in an attempt to gain her favor towards Du Dabao, she felt it was too much. Ever since her daughter met Du Dabao, she was no longer the obedient daughter who listened to her. This fact particularly angered Chen Huizhu. So, she gritted her teeth, covered in cold sweat, and pointed at Du Dabao.
"Brother Fei, do you have the confidence to cure my mother?" Seeing her mother in unbearable pain on the bed, Yu Wenjing felt very distressed. Since even Brother Dabao spoke so highly of Du Fei, she assumed Du Fei must have some skill. Moreover, the symptoms Du Fei mentioned earlier were exactly what her mother had been experiencing recently, which increased Yu Wenjing's trust in him. Du Fei nodded seriously, and Yu Wenjing immediately moved aside. As for Lian Haichao, although he wanted to stop Du Fei, even Yu Wenjing, as his daughter, had agreed. As an outsider, he naturally had no right to block Du Fei.
When Du Fei reached Chen Huizhu, she was already dazed with pain. With a sweep of his hand, the bag containing the golden needles was spread out on the small table beside the bed. Du Fei picked up a golden needle with his right hand and inserted it into an acupuncture point on Chen Huizhu. One by one, two by two, soon, more than a dozen golden needles were all inserted into Chen Huizhu's body. Following this, Du Fei placed his hand on Chen Huizhu's abdomen, and the true qi of the Ten Thousand Phases Art surged out, entering Chen Huizhu's body in its entirety.
"Brother Dabao, do you think Du Fei can cure my mom?" Yu Wenjing's hands were clasped together, and she was extremely nervous as she watched Du Fei treat her mother. Hearing his girlfriend's question, Du Dabao reached out, took her hand, and comforted her, "Don't worry. As long as Brother Fei makes a move, no matter how difficult the illness, it won't be a problem."
As for Dr. Huang, he had initially intended to press the call button in the room immediately. However, when Du Fei took out the golden needles and skillfully began to needle Chen Huizhu, he inexplicably stopped his actions.
"Mmm." Just then, Chen Huizhu on the bed let out a soft sound, and then her eyes slowly opened.
"Mom! That's great, Mom, are you okay?" Yu Wenjing stared at Chen Huizhu without blinking. As soon as Chen Huizhu opened her eyes, she immediately pounced on her, her voice choked with emotion.
Chen Huizhu let out a long sigh, "Good daughter, Mom is fine, Mom is fine." Just now, it felt like she had a dream, and in that dream, she seemed to have seen Yu Wenjing's deceased father. Chen Huizhu thought her own time was also running out. But she never expected to wake up. Upon opening her eyes and seeing the golden needles on her body and Du Fei beside her, she understood immediately that Du Fei had saved her. As for her daughter crying heartbroken in her arms, Chen Huizhu quickly comforted her. Once her daughter's emotions had somewhat calmed down, Chen Huizhu immediately asked her to help her sit up and lean against the pillow.
