Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law

The old lady lay on the bed, trembling with fear. She looked at Liu Ergou's smiling face with increasing fright.

Seeing this, Liu Ergou was ecstatic. So what if this old lady is arrogant and overbearing? Does she really think she's the biggest shot in town just because her son works in the city? In that case, I have to teach her a lesson today. I'll let her know that some people are not to be trifled with.

With that thought, Liu Ergou picked up a needle. This time, he used no special technique. He simply raised it and jabbed it fiercely into the most painful acupoint on the old lady's back.

The next second, a piercing scream echoed through the entire ward.

"AH!"

Immediately, black blood began to ooze from the puncture wound. As the dark blood appeared, a foul stench filled the room.

Upon hearing the old lady's scream, the bodyguards at the door instinctively started to rush in. However, recalling her earlier display, they stopped at the doorway, not daring to act recklessly.

The old lady was in too much pain to think, instinctively letting out one agonized scream after another. Her cries were as miserable as a pig being slaughtered.

Yet, hearing these pig-like shrieks, Liu Ergou remained completely unfazed. He calmly picked up a second needle and inserted it into the old lady's back.

Instantly, another scream ripped through the air.

At this, the bodyguards who had been standing guard at the door could no longer remain calm and charged in. Seeing Liu Ergou holding a third needle, about to plunge it into the old lady, they roared.

"Stop right there!"

"I can see you're no doctor at all—you're out to rob and murder!"

With that shout, the bodyguards charged at Liu Ergou.

Seeing them coming, Liu Ergou showed not the slightest fear. With his free hand, he threw a punch at each of the two approaching men. Two punches, and both were on the floor. The third needle plunged into her body.

This time, the old lady didn't scream. She clearly no longer had the strength. Instead, she just lay on the bed, whimpering softly.

This caused the onlookers at the door to start murmuring amongst themselves.

"Tsk, that's no doctor—that's outright robbery and murder! Does acupuncture even use syringe needles?"

"Exactly! He must be here to rob and murder! This is terrifying!"

"Oh my God, this must be a shady hospital. Does anyone have a phone? Call the police, quickly!"

Qian Xiaoling, standing nearby, watched this unfold with burning anxiety. Why are they calling the police?

However, before Qian Xiaoling could process it, Liu Ergou had already grabbed the remaining needles. His hands became a blur, and with a dozen whooshing sounds, all of them were jabbed into the old lady's back.

Immediately, a scream even more piercing than the last filled the entire ward. After letting out this excruciating scream, the old lady's eyes rolled back, and she fainted.

Upon seeing this, Qian Xiaoling became frantic.

"Oh my, Liu Ergou, Liu Ergou!"

"She's fainted! You have to stop! At this rate, someone's going to die!"

Hearing Qian Xiaoling's cries, Liu Ergou didn't panic at all. He remained as calm as ever.

"Die? Who's dying?" Liu Ergou said calmly. "I'm treating an illness. Don't be nervous, you'll see in a moment!"

Watching Liu Ergou's calm demeanor, Qian Xiaoling was anxious, but now, she could only place her hope in him and wait. Meanwhile, the onlookers at the door began to search for their phones, preparing to call the police.

Two minutes passed in a flash. Just then, the unconscious old lady stirred and woke up. The moment she was conscious, she cried out in pain.

"Ouch, ouch, it's killing me!"

"Doctor, this is too painful! When will the treatment be over?"

Hearing this, Liu Ergou replied, "Right now!"

As he spoke, his hands became a blur as he withdrew every single needle from the old lady's back. A jet of black blood spurted out with each one he removed. The appearance of the dark blood intensified the foul stench in the room.

Only after all the needles were pulled out did everyone realize that the old lady's snow-white bedsheets had turned black.

Liu Ergou then said to the old lady, "Here, try moving. How do you feel now?"

The old lady heard him and instinctively sat up. As soon as she did, she noticed a difference in her body. She tried moving around a bit. The next second, a look of pure joy spread across her face.

"Oh my goodness, oh my goodness!"

"My rheumatism is gone! And I always felt a heavy weight on my chest, but now it feels like it's been lifted!"

"I feel absolutely wonderful!"

After saying this, the old lady looked at Liu Ergou with grateful eyes.

"Divine Doctor, you truly are a Divine Doctor!"

At this moment, the old lady's eyes were sparkling, no longer dim and lifeless as before. As she spoke, she reached out to grab Liu Ergou's arm, but he skillfully avoided her.

"Alright, since you're fine, that's all that matters. Leave the rest to the hospital!"

"I'm leaving!"

With that, Liu Ergou took Qian Xiaoling's hand and left the hospital room without hesitation. Looking at his departing figure, the old lady wanted to call out and stop him, but before she could speak, Liu Ergou had already disappeared without a trace.

And so, another legend of a Divine Doctor was born in the hospital.

Having left the ward with Qian Xiaoling, Liu Ergou sat with her in the rest area, chatting idly. Qian Xiaoling couldn't help but express her admiration for his miraculous medical skills. They exchanged phone numbers and agreed to have dinner together that evening. Of course, Qian Xiaoling insisted on treating, saying it would be impolite not to after he had helped her so much. Liu Ergou simply said it was fine either way.

After making the arrangements, they went their separate ways. Qian Xiaoling went back to work, while Liu Ergou returned to the hallway to wait for Fu Yan's check-up to finish.

「Time flew, and soon it was afternoon.」

By then, Fu Yan's medical check-up was finally complete. He walked out of the last examination room, report in hand, and couldn't help but rub his own back.

"Ouch, my old bones!" he lamented. "I feel more tired from this check-up than from a day at work. This is killing me!"
