The little fatty hadn't expected to suddenly develop such symptoms, looking at Ye Tiancheng with sorrow.
"What did I just say... it really happened, it's a complete tragedy! Ye Tiancheng saw her state and didn't know how to comfort her, but he wasn't a doctor, and his capabilities were very limited.
'Now you have to rely on me,' the divine stone told Ye Tiancheng. 'Use your true qi to tap his major acupuncture points. This will unblock his meridians and alleviate his various uncomfortable symptoms.'
'Diabetic ketoacidosis, will this technique work?' Just then, someone walked past them. This person appeared very distinguished. He saw Ye Tiancheng attempting to treat diabetic ketoacidosis with acupuncture, which was tantamount to mocking him as a doctor.
'I know you're mocking me and what you want to say, but you clearly don't understand Chinese medicine yet. So, I regret to tell you... I can do it!'
He once again overturned their preconceived notions. It had to be said that reaching this point was a dead end. If one were to understand traditional Chinese medicine from a modern medical perspective, it would be laughable.
'Nothing can make me understand the thoughts of stubborn people like you! So, you're saying you can cure it?'
'Nonsense!'
Ye Tiancheng didn't want to say anything more to this guy. He disliked him and was annoyed by him. Frankly, some people are just so self-inflated, they don't put others in their eyes at all, and they don't think others have solutions when they themselves don't.
People are always like that, always so persistent about what they believe in.
'Then let's make a bet. If you can do it, I'll call you Grandpa. If you can't, you call me Grandpa.' The man said sarcastically, thinking that treating diabetic ketoacidosis with acupuncture was child's play.
Mild cases of diabetic ketoacidosis could generally be cured easily and happily. If things truly escalated to this point, one couldn't articulate their true vision and dreams. In his opinion, many things could be explained clearly with straightforward words, so there was no need to elaborate. After experiencing so much, it was evident that his own ideas had taken shape in his heart, and he didn't put them in his eyes at all.
The only reason this guy put him in his eyes was because, looking at it now, many things didn't need to be explained again. He had thought this from the beginning, so in his eyes, this guy was simply a fool. He didn't even glance at him properly.
'So, you want to compare with me, right?' This time, Ye Tiancheng heard the guy say it. Seeing Ye Tiancheng about to make a bet, the little fatty became anxious. But he also wanted to resolve his problem, so he hurriedly said to him, 'Stop talking nonsense here, hurry up and solve my problem. That's the most important thing, isn't it?'
'Of course, that's the most important. Otherwise, why do you think I've been silent after all this talk?' Ye Tiancheng didn't understand why the guy was anxious. As long as he was here, he wouldn't die. His promise to him was as boundless as the surging river.
'I am the chief of internal medicine in the town. If you can make a name for yourself...'
'Talking about this really makes me laugh. Don't you think I won't agree? A mere doctor can earn, earning ten thousand yuan is already breaking through the heavens. And I don't even care about that ten thousand yuan anymore, do I?'
'What's wrong with you now? Why can't you solve my patient's problem immediately? If you can solve my suffering, we can talk about other things later.' At this moment, he said unhappily. Because he was anxious, he spoke to them with urgency. At this time, he could only prioritize the patient and then talk about other things. Therefore, everything should be handled according to the current emergency situation, not leisurely chatting here. Time was not waiting for them; there was no time for them to talk nonsense here or to chat idly.
'I naturally understand this situation. At this time, I don't know why you have such boring ideas?' At this moment, a familiar voice, a long-lost voice, sounded in their ears. And this person was someone Ye Tiancheng was all too familiar with.
This woman was Hou Mingzhu.
'I didn't expect to meet you here, it's truly too surprising.'
'Why is it you? I thought you would have died in that impoverished place, yet you're still alive.' Hou Mingzhu saw that he wasn't dead and was living well. Moreover, seeing the Apple phone peeking out of his pocket, she was very surprised. How could someone like him, who was so poor that he only had money for a few pieces of clothing, afford a ten-thousand-yuan Apple phone?
'Oh, is this Miss Hou? What brings you to this impoverished place?' The man who called himself the attending physician saw Miss Hou Mingzhu and quickly went to greet her.
Of course, Miss Hou Mingzhu, although she wouldn't interact with this doctor, didn't reply to him. She just glanced at him and stopped talking.
Because she had little to say to this guy, she turned to Ye Tiancheng and said, 'I heard you've gotten rich lately. I bet you must have done some shady dealings.'
'Too lazy to bother with you!'
With that said, he didn't forget to quickly resolve the little fatty's illness. Because he used his true qi, his physical pain disappeared very quickly.
'Wow, I'm cured! My body doesn't hurt at all. It's truly miraculous...' The little fatty's diabetic ketoacidosis was resolved, and he was completely like a healthy person, overjoyed as if it were New Year. The attending physician saw that the little fatty's illness was completely cured, and he was so astonished that his mouth couldn't close. He then glanced at Ye Tiancheng, not knowing what to say. The complex emotions in his heart were perhaps only understood by him.
If this problem couldn't be resolved stably, it would be a major blow to him in this life and might cause an irreparable wound in his heart. Everyone has something they want to express. Therefore, among these things, a large portion are problems they themselves have created, which they need to clarify.
This chief physician felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a mouthful of ash. He couldn't help but look at the other party, his mood turning sour.
'Nothing said now is useful. The only thing that is useful is that I will use my strength to make your family acknowledge me, and at the same time, I will break off our engagement.' Ye Tiancheng, before Hou Mingzhu could say anything, uttered these words.
Hou Mingzhu chuckled, her face stern, and said, 'What do you think you are? Only our Hou family can break off the engagement with you. How can you say that to me? Don't you know that when you say this, you will die? You know how powerful the rich are compared to the poor. In our country, power and influence are strength. Erasing a bumpkin like you is effortless.'
'You'll know then. Don't talk so much nonsense here. I'll tell you clearly, Miss Hou, I'm breaking off the engagement. It will be useless even if you beg and cry later.' Ye Tiancheng looked at her as if she were an idiot, his face filled with joy. This expression was something he had planned for a long time. He had wanted to do this for a long time, but he never had the time. It wasn't that he didn't have the time, but he lacked the courage and ability. Now he was different; he could completely erase that guy.
'It's a deal! Don't regret it!'
Seeing him say this, Hou Mingzhu said no more. Because Hou Mingzhu understood very well that talking more with this guy was useless. She would crush him with her strength, which meant using money to knock his head senseless. She thought this guy deserved a beating.
Hearing his words, the divine stone couldn't help but laugh, thinking he was too conceited.
He had just earned a little money and was already acting smug. If he were to earn a lot of money in the future, who knows how arrogant he would become? He would completely look down on others and could crush people with his toes. This kind of arrogance, along with his desire to show off, was very annoying.
But now, he didn't care about these things at all. For him, he would do whatever he wanted, and others couldn't interfere or meddle in his affairs.
At least, that's what this guy thought at the moment.
'It seems you are truly not well.' Later, seeing her act like this, completely disregarding the dignified Hou family, she said angrily.
It could be said that this guy had completely disregarded the other party. In her opinion, what she wanted to do must be said first and then acted upon. This was because she had a flaw: without sufficient motivation, there was no pressure. When someone has enough pressure, it generates motivation, and they will not rest until they achieve their goal and become the boss of what they want to do.
'Completely and thoroughly, you have exposed your true nature. I left you there back then to train you, not to scorn you.' Hou Mingzhu, faintly sensing his strength, was a little worried that he might become desperate and do something dangerous. This was because many poor people would act recklessly when pushed to the brink.
If, by the rules of the rich, you competed with them using money, it would be utterly impossible to compare; you would only be ruthlessly crushed. However, if these people were pushed to the brink and didn't want to live, wanting to go for a mutually destructive outcome, the rich were quite afraid of them. This was because they were like disarmed individuals, only fit to be slaughtered.
'Stop talking so much nonsense. You should know better than I do about the matters between us. You are so hypocritical and pretentious, it really makes me want to vomit. Do whatever you want, it has nothing to do with me.' Ye Tiancheng wanted to make his stance clear to her entirely because he didn't need her sympathy, nor did he need her to back down. Since he had spoken, he would definitely move towards his goal, without any discount, compromise, or retreat. Therefore, the decision he wanted to make fully expressed his absolute desire and ability. At this moment, the expression Ye Tiancheng displayed was terrifying, sending a chill down Hou Mingzhu's spine.
Hou Mingzhu didn't expect him to be so resolute, showing no regard for their past connection. So, she could only smile bitterly. Life was full of resentment.
But things had developed to this point; who could be blamed? It was entirely his own fault, so he didn't want to say more or express anything. Everything had been nullified because of those events. It was because he had said such heartless things back then that it was useless for him to say anything now, as these things were simply a compromise in his eyes.
'Some things, some matters, cannot be explained clearly anymore. As for what to do in the future, or how things will be in the future, these are things that make people very suspicious. Often, for the sake of goals and progress, one has to do this. It's meaningless if you blame me.'
'Alright, since you are so heartless, let's make it official.' Seeing that it was meaningless to continue talking, Hou Mingzhu decisively expressed her stance and then waited for Ye Tiancheng.
